Chapter 61: Thousands of Miles of Pursuit, Terran Military Order (3)
The so-called [Apocalypse] City, because it is next to the [Luo Dou Grassland], where a large number of demonic beasts are entrenched, has to put a lot of effort into the city defense for this purpose.
For example, a giant crossbow machine arranged on the city wall at ten paces, such as the densely packed blades embedded in the city wall to prevent climbing, such as a large hole dug in the city wall to house the windows of the cannons.
All these devices are to guard against a large number of magical beasts entrenched in the grassland, and for the human race, such equipment can already be called sophisticated, not to mention the many strong people who live in the city all year round and have attainments in swordsmanship and magic.
Although humans are so vigilant, no one knows how many demonic beasts are entrenched in the grassland.
[Luo Dou Grassland] is one of the few places where only demonic beasts live, and orcs who are also fond of such terrain do not live here. Therefore, it is impossible to know the strength of the demonic beasts here from the mouths of such allies. Spies have been sent into the grasslands to gather information, but none of them have returned. Over time, the human side has also given up on this meaningless consumption of life.
But when it comes to worrying, they are not too worried, because most people think that even if the Demon Beast is beyond the predicted range, the Apocalypse City's out-of-specification city defense force can still withstand it. It's just that the psychological shadow of wanting to understand the real combat power has been lingering.
Just yesterday night, the nightmare in people's hearts came true.
The dense demonic beasts were surging like an army of migrating ants, and the attacks of all the city's defense weapons were like small waves splashing in the middle of a big river. The slender beasts were able to climb the castle tower just by overlapping each other, and the blades attached to the city walls played no important role.
The desperate city lord could only send most of the soldiers to open the city gate to fight a bloody way for the migration of the people in the city, and he fought bravely with the soldiers who volunteered to stay, and was finally swallowed in the sea of demonic beasts that poured into the city tower.
It's just that the demon race is born with a brutal temperament, and its desire to destroy is completely deeply rooted in its genes, and it is difficult for the city that falls into its hands to survive. The lord of the castle, who had a deep friendship with this place, and the warriors who made it their hometown chose to die here because they did not want to see such a situation, just for the belief in their hearts.
Then the demons who broke into the city wantonly destroyed the city, turning the city condensed by human wisdom into a ruin, and then left with pleasant emotions.
At the head of this tyrannical demon army is one of the six-bladed generals who once appeared in the city of [Nolan] and passed through the entire street without anyone noticing its figure: the Wind Demon General Wind Dorico.
He stood triumphantly atop the ruined tower, his scarlet eyes looking in the direction of the human army that had driven past him days earlier. The army of the demon clan that had already captured and destroyed the Apocalypse City would be the same as the Demon King's plan, attacking them from both front and back at the same time.
For this reason, even if you lose your most powerful subordinate, you still have to insist on completing the Demon King's plan. Thinking of this, Wind Dorico gritted his teeth fiercely. Without that marquis-level cadre, the benefits that he can win in the demon circle will be greatly reduced, and the bitter fruits are really worth the losses.
In the demon race, there is no concept of unity in the fight against the outside world like the human race. The starting point of all collective action is to maximize one's own gains. This is the reason why the demons are the most annoying to other races, even if they are the races with the highest combat power except for the scarce number of [Flying Dragon Clans], they are not treated by other races.
In addition to the drive of interests, another reason that can make the demons take collective action is the forcible orders of those who are too much stronger than themselves. These two reasons, even as a duke, are unavoidable.
At the end of the field of vision, the giant eagle flew the message, and the information wrapped in the dark purple magic of the demon king was carried by the giant eagle with its claws. Wind Doric took the orb of magic from its claws, and the moment it touched it, it exploded, and the encrypted words appeared in the air and then into Wind Dorico's ears.
In this world, there is almost nothing that cannot be done as long as the magic is enough. Even if it's a way of communication from demons.
On the Terran side, the communication tool used is a crystal ball-like magic guide called a "communication ball", and if you use your magic to draw your own unique pattern on it, you can communicate with another person who has the same pattern in the distance. However, since it is a [everyday] magic channel, it is relatively easy to steal the content of the communication, so confidential matters are still communicated in writing.
For example, the note in the hand of the middle-aged human commander, or the text wrapped in magic on the side of the demons, can only be used once, and will dissipate by itself after being used.
The Demon King has a confidential order to the Wind Demon General that he must personally listen to.
After receiving the order, Feng Duo Rico watched the dark purple magic words dissipate, turned back to stop the greedy subordinates who were still digging for loot in the ruins, and after a while, this huge number of demonic beast troops surged out of the ruins of the Apocalypse City, heading towards the next destination that was about to be reduced to a battlefield.
It didn't matter, Feng Duo Rico licked his lips viciously, filled with the pleasant feeling of a vengeful man who seemed to have a great vengeance. The humans who offend themselves will be buried in the next battle.
Because the next destination of the Warcraft troops is [Nolan] City in the Apocalypse City and the Mire Forest.
Since his subordinates were killed in the process of attacking Einzbel, everything is inseparable from that family. As long as he erases that dojo the next time he attacks the city, he will be able to compensate for the remorse in his heart at this moment.
And not far away, in the city of Nolan, a black-haired girl named Anya Einzbel opened her eyes while meditating in the middle of the dojo. Those eyes swept away all the emotions that would confuse the mind, and only a cold and sharp ruthless killing intent remained.
This is the state of a girl who is a swordsman.
Leaning on the sword master outside the door, Mordri Einzbel nodded at her, and then walked out of the dojo with several instructors in the dojo with all the students in the dojo bowing respectfully, joining the large group of people who slowly marched out of the city. Outside of Nolan City, it is the general of the human army who is in full swing to recruit the adventurer volunteers.
As the saying goes, "everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country". At this moment when the Demon King Army attacked, all the human warriors who had a little confidence in their own strength joined this torrent of fighting against the Demon Race.
The father and daughter were recognized by many people along the way and greeted them kindly, and Anya also responded with a smile and one by one, which really surprised these people a lot, and at the same time secretly speculated in their hearts.
Is this still the girl who happily took off the line?
In the end, what happened to the girl during this period of time that she didn't know that made her so mature and well-versed in the world in a short period of time?
However, when asked, as a father, Mordeli could only smile wryly.
