Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Stalemate in the Battle
Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Stalemate in the Battle
Time is indeed a distressing thing, and every minute and every second of the moment is as difficult as years to live. But looking back, time is like a blood-stained iron sword in the hands of a warrior, so fast that people don't have time to recall, and the images that flash in their minds are only remnants.
Every second of the change of the sun and the moon will gradually shrink into the confused corners of memories after surviving the current second.
Sitting in the sunset, Merge is savoring the moment when it is as thick as pulp, reminiscing about the past behind his head that is as light as smoke.
In the blink of an eye, it has been more than a month since the night of the beast tide.
Although the month that has been spent has passed quickly from the fingertips like wind and sand, and looking back on the time travel, it is only a white horse. But every soldier in Blue Ear City, every soldier knew that every day of the more than a month had been more difficult than the usual year, and every day was spent in the tide of dangerous beasts day and night, and the battle in his ears hovered and dreams echoed when he woke up.
Compared with the medicinal soup that has been repeatedly cooked for several hours, every second under the war is more bitter and unbearable. It is even a hundred or a thousand times more difficult than the scorching summer sun, and a hundred or a thousand times harder than the bone-chilling wind and ice rain.
The tide of beasts is like a sharp sword hanging around the neck, like an iron spear piercing into the skin near the heart, pressing everyone's heartstrings, and they can't sleep day and night. After all, if you don't show extreme care and caution, you may become the next rotting corpse waiting to be trampled on the battlefield.
"Counting the minutes and seconds of life, it is really easy to make people tired. ”
The tattered battle armor in Mergmo's hands, the surface of the metal parts that were all covered with cracks and ravines, every scratch or bite mark that opened the metal, every line or section formed by the cracking of the huge impact force, were all on Merge's fingertips, and there were bursts of cold and piercing touches, telling a bleak story.
The heavy air is so oppressive that it is impossible to breathe, or even sigh. Merge felt the tragic traces of the battle on the surface of the battle armor, and could only sigh in his heart.
Every claw mark, every bite mark, every bit of blood, and every crack on the battle armor is a heavy beat in the symphony of war.
Powerful and fragile lives are mercilessly harvested like straw on the battlefield.
Weak.
It's not because of human weakness.
The human beings who live in the gap between the powerful races on the continent are still too weak.
Although human beings are instinctive to learn, human beings can barely compete for a place to thrive in the land of the jungle. But humans are still too weak compared to races that are inherently powerful such as monsters, abyssal trolls, dragons, and even the disappeared elves.
And the road to becoming stronger for mankind is also extremely difficult.
Unlike the Abyss Race, the Elven Race and the Dragon Race, the strength will gradually become stronger with the increase of age or bloodline, and the growth of human strength requires a hundred, or even a thousand times the effort and sweat.
Human beings are inherently small, and no strange means, whether it is vindictiveness, magic, or alchemy, can change the innate weakness and racial inferiority of human beings.
Therefore, since ancient times, the human race has always been a small grass living in the cracks of the continent, although it is weak and can't help the wind, but it also stubbornly survives.
............
Alchemists, medical personnel, soldiers, apothecaries, and priests of light were all hurrying and orderly as they walked through the barracks. Compared with usual, there is less jokes and jokes between each other, and the atmosphere is extremely solemn.
Discarding the scrapped battle armor cuirplate in his hand that could no longer be used in the discarded pile on the side, Merge shook his head to retract his heavy thoughts, picked up another badly damaged battle armor part, and examined it.
Indeed, the stronger the body, the heavier the responsibility on your shoulders, but the stronger you are, because the bitter taste of powerlessness and inability to control will also be relatively reduced.
At this time, a strong sense of powerlessness from the depths of the body and the heart is tirelessly enveloping Merge, although Merge's mechanical figure and calm eyes make Merge look nothing abnormal, but only Merge knows that he is almost overwhelmed by powerlessness and frustration.
Merge was always thinking about how good it would be if he was also a legendary powerhouse at this time, he didn't have to hear the number of dead soldiers increase again, he could only twitch his heart hard, but he couldn't make any changes. If it is Blue Ear City, which has four legendary powerhouses, it does not have to be passively defended.
If Murge was strong enough, it would be so strong that the Abyss would be afraid of his existence, and at that time, even the beast tide would cease to exist.
But all this is just Merge's powerless fantasy and complaining sighs, at this moment, he can only hide this bitter smile and desire to become stronger in the depths of his heart.
While Merge was thinking wildly, the Taihu, who was sitting in the defense line of Blue Ear City, complained that he was too weak. And in the battlefield and in the barracks, whether it is a soldier who is fighting fiercely or a soldier who has been injured, which one of them is not eager to become extremely powerful in the next second, waving his hand to repel the tide of beasts, so that every soldier who is worried and physically and mentally exhausted can sleep peacefully and eat a hot meal.
Bloodthirsty wars, fragile lives, and the wails of compatriots are all the cruel realities of a head-on blow, and all of them are the reinforcing agents of humanity's desire to become stronger.
This point has long been deeply realized by Taihu.
The war continues, the beast tide still tirelessly pounds the human soldiers' defenses, life is still withering, and blood is still flowing.
Over the past month, Blue Ear City's defensive front has gradually advanced from the vicinity of the Troll Mountain Range to the bottom of Blue Ear City's walls.
Under the impact of countless ferocious demonic beasts, the human soldiers gradually revealed the inferiority of the race, and the defense line retreated again and again.
The war is going on day and night, and the human soldiers are not the killing machines that only know how to kill and are not afraid of death, and the human soldiers are not as good as day by day in the uninterrupted impact of the beast tide in this month, causing the defensive front to become no longer hard and stable, and they have to retreat helplessly under the fierce offensive of the Warcraft army.
Of course, Taihu knew that the Abyss Trolls had ordered the low-level beast tide to continuously attack Blue Ear City at any cost, with the purpose of consuming the physical strength, energy, and number of human soldiers.
The Abyssal Troll became more and more cunning, and Taihu's brow furrowed even tighter.
Although he was well aware of the purpose of the Abyss Troll, Taihu had nothing to do.
Because Taihu didn't know how many Abyss Trolls had been dispatched to launch a beast tide against Blue Ear City this time. The strength of the abyssal trolls who launched the beast tide is all in the legendary realm, and their number is unknown. But there are only three legendary powerhouses in Blue Ear City, if they rashly take the initiative to attack the Troll Mountain Range and fall into the trap of the Abyss Troll, where will Taihu put the lives of nearly a million people and soldiers in Blue Ear City?
Therefore, although he knew that the beast tide was gradually wearing down the strength of Blue Ear City, Taihu had no choice but to do his best to minimize casualties among the soldiers in this stalemate war.
In the past month, the three legendary powerhouses of Blue Ear City have also fought against the Abyss Trolls a few times. Moreover, the abyss trolls that each of the three of them fought were not the same abyss trolls. This also made it impossible for the three of them to figure out how many abyssal trolls the other party had involved in the launch of the beast tide.
So far, three Abyss Trolls have appeared. Whether there will be a fourth abyssal troll to show up, Taihu does not know.
While the three Taihu were suspicious of the abyss trolls, the abyss trolls were also constantly testing the bottom of Blue Ear City, after all, on the side of the abyss trolls, they didn't know how many legendary powerhouses there were in Blue Ear City.
Therefore, although in the past month or so, the six legendary powerhouses on both sides have collided many times, but none of them acted rashly, and both sides did not use all their strength when fighting, mainly to find out the reality of the other party, as the main purpose of the two sides.
Of course, both sides are also cautiously waiting for the moment when the other party's flaws are exposed. Whether it is on the side of Blue Ear City or the side of the Endless Abyss, every legendary powerhouse is waiting, like a lion dormant in the grass and a poisonous snake hiding in a deep hole in the rocks, waiting for the moment when the prey relaxes its vigilance and takes the other party's life with one blow.
Mutual temptation, mutual concealment, just for a moment of each other's exposed feet and flaws, to reverse the situation on the battlefield.
The abyssal trolls launched low-level demonic beasts and attacked the defense line of the human soldiers day and night, on the one hand, in order to consume the strength of the human soldiers and the energy and physical strength of the soldiers, on the other hand, they were also trying to provoke the three legendary powerhouses on the human side, so that the mood of the three Taihu was turbulent, so that the three Taihu had flaws in the fight, and the abyss trolls were able to seize the opportunity to severely damage the legendary powerhouses on the human side.
Of course, the three of them knew that the Abyssal Trolls were scheming, and in many fights, the Abyss Trolls had been trying to provoke the three of them, but the three of them were also waiting for this opportunity to hit each other hard.
Both sides are constantly looking for opportunities to turn the tide of the war and end the war.
In this way, the beast tide of Blue Ear City gradually entered a stalemate war situation.
Although both sides are using the blooming and destruction of life to maintain the stalemate of this cruel war. But the human powerhouse is not as cold-blooded and ruthless as the abyss trolls, after all, the Warcraft clan, whether strong or not, is the same low-grade livestock in the eyes of the abyss trolls.
So, the abyssal trolls saw thousands of demonic beasts, mercilessly harvested by the swords of human soldiers, with no sympathy, no regret, only a cruel and excited bloodthirsty smile.
But the three of them couldn't laugh anyway.
Every fallen soldier is a compatriot of Blue Ear City!
Every drop of human blood fell deep into the hearts of the three Taihu!
On the city wall, Taihu's fists were clenched hard, his nails had already pierced into his palms, and the slowly flowing blood had already stained his five fingers red.
Although Taihu's face sank like water and he couldn't see any expression, his heart was already boiling.
What Taihu needs is an opportunity, an opportunity to counterattack, an opportunity to turn defeat into victory, and an opportunity to let the beast tide retreat.
In the depths of Taihu's calm eyes, the anger that had been stored up for a long time was gradually burning.
