Chapter 451: The Bait of Desperate Survival
"This is what you call a trap," Urvona, the princess of the Feathered Serpent Clan, turned back with a pale face and asked the king in a trembling voice, "This is simply a massacre!"
"I'm killing enemies, not innocent people, how can I say it's a slaughter," Wang Xu didn't even look at Urvona, his eyes were always fixed on the flame hell in the distance, and he replied in a calm voice: "If I hadn't moved all the residents of the city before, then this would be the time for the orcs to slaughter our elves!"
"However, isn't your purpose to lure the Naga Sea Clan to come to the rescue, with the power of this flame trap, can any enemy come out of the city alive?" Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Then I don't know," Wang Xu shook his head, and said with a wry smile with an embarrassed expression: "I originally thought that it would be good to have 100,000 people squeezed into the city, but I didn't expect that all the pig-headed and kobold people were squeezed in, and originally they could at least survive half of the people, but it's hard to say now......
"Look, someone's coming out!" Nilou, who had the strongest eyesight on the scene, suddenly said in a crisp voice.
Following the direction of Nilou's gaze, Wang Xu looked at the city of Iris that had been blown into a sea of flames, and he found that a team of dozens of people had escaped from the burning city of Iris City, and the leader seemed to be the mermaid general riding a shark rhinoceros beast.
Due to the relatively spacious area where Iris City is located, even if there are hundreds of mid-level extreme explosion charms exploding at the same time, they cannot form a flame whirlwind, so the effect of the explosion is much worse, which allows some enemies who know water magic to escape in the sea of fire.
In particular, the mermaid clan commander Ketra, as a great magician-level water magician, even though he was seriously injured, still used his water magic, summoned a circle of large water balls to surround him, escaped from the explosion core in the city, and also brought out several of his own staff and more than a dozen personal soldiers.
When Kitra drank the potion of life while leading his men, who were missing arms and legs, to flee to the collapsed southern wall, Kitra was furious and vomited a mouthful of blood in the sky.
It saw that most of the 25,000 men who had left behind outside the city had already been killed or wounded, and even if they were lucky enough to survive, they all rushed towards it one after another, because, for some reason, the large area outside the city was constantly collapsing and melting, turning into an endless sea of magma, and that sea of magma basically sealed its last hope of escaping.
"You take a few people down!" Kita, who had blood on the corner of his mouth, turned his head and ordered one of the least injured soldiers: "Tell everyone to gather on the ruins of the city wall, and there is only one way to die if you stay below!"
"Yes, my lord!" After saluting, he summoned several friends who were not seriously injured, and moved down from the ruins of the city wall more than twenty meters high, and the surrounding firelight reflected its face that had been blown out by the explosion, and its expression had been distorted by the black soot and blood.
With the repeated shouting of the soldiers, after about five minutes, more than a thousand people were slowly standing on the city wall around Kita, and the other surviving and mobile mermaid soldiers also noticed their own people around Kita, so they all gathered towards Kita's position.
In the end, of the more than 30,000 troops brought by Kita, only more than 3,000 survived, and the rest were either killed by the masonry blasted by the explosion of the city wall on the way to see the excitement, or fell into the sea of magma and turned into ashes on the way to escape.
Even if the three thousand remaining merfolk living people standing on the city wall at this moment are still in a desperate situation, behind them is the city of Iris with flames dozens of meters high, and in front of them is the sea of magma that is constantly expanding towards them!
"Elven Clan, as long as I, Kita, am alive, I won't let you go!" The Merfolk Grand Leader Kitra let out a roar of rage after crushing a few of his front teeth, and after howling, it poured a bottle of valuable magic potion, raised its own oak staff, and roared, "Waterfall!"
As Kitra used the Great Magister-level waterfall technique, five or six meters high water curtains surged out of thin air near the wall where the merfolk were gathered, and these water curtains blocked the flames that kept coming from inside the city, and also blocked the sea of magma outside the city that was about to approach the root of the city wall.
Shortly after drinking the magic potion, Kitra dried another bottle of a slightly lower level magic potion, and then, again, it yelled, "Water Column!"
With Kita's roar, there were seven or eight more pillars of water five or six meters thick on the sea of magma at the base of the city wall, and soon, these five or six pillars of water fell and slapped on the magma, weakening the pace of the sea of magma.
In this way, almost only relying on Kita's own strength, the surviving merfolk warriors are struggling to support themselves in the fire hell, and no one knows whether they will all die in the fire in the end, or they will survive to the end.
However, Kitra didn't even have time to think about these questions, and at this moment, it was already overwhelmed, not only to constantly release water magic to lower the temperature around it, but also to stop the spreading sea of magma.
Even, its heart had already fallen into a deep uneasiness, it understood that the traps here were all laid by the elves, even if its own people survived this plot.
However, what if the elves in the city did not go far and were still nearby, what should I do, now, I have less than 4,000 people in my hands, and they are all remnants of the army without combat effectiveness.
Even if there are people in the team of pig-headed and kobolds, there are still people who can survive, but those people are also remnants of soldiers, and they have no combat effectiveness, depending on the situation, now, as long as the elves send a thousand people and horses, it is enough to completely annihilate their own people, and now, they are already in a desperate situation.
What the mermaid leader Kitra didn't know was that Wang Xu didn't intend to take his life at all, Wang Xu's goal was to deal with the Naga Sea Clan Legion and the god-level array mage, so as to help the Silas Legion break the siege, in Wang Xu's plan, the surviving remnants of the Mermaid Clan could just be used as bait to lure the Naga Sea Clan forces, at this moment, Wang Xu, it was too late to treasure them, how could they kill them.
Half an hour later, after Kitra had drunk almost all of its own magic potions, exhausted all its mental and physical strength, and even its vocal cords were about to burst out, the explosion in the city finally ended, and although it was still burning, it was easier to face the flames in the city than to face the sea of magma outside the city.
So Kitra ordered all the remnants of the army to retreat along the drained river to the burning city.
As the remnants of the merfolk walked down the city walls and into the dry rivers of the city, they saw scenes that broke their hearts...... (To be continued.) )
