The Wind Rises Chapter 101 The demons dance wildly and fight back against the horn
When the Purgatory Worm appeared in the city, it meant that more powerful demons had appeared, and at the same time, it also announced that the general defense line had lost its effect, and the entire royal city had to join in this struggle, and no one could stay out of it.
In the distance, under the gates of hell, horned creatures with blood-red hard shells and short, thick and strong feet shook their heads and walked towards the city from the city walls.
The intensity of the fighting began to escalate, and there was no doubt that more casualties would appear in the city that was beginning to become chaotic.
"Boom." The ground began to shake, and some residents of Wangcheng, who were still unclear about the situation, looked at the shaking buildings around them in confusion.
"What's wrong?" The street vendor asked his companion with some confusion.
"I don't know, maybe it's a large war machine from some kingdom." The companion shook his head and continued his shouting, just as the city guards who usually come to control them are not there, and they also took this opportunity to set up a stall to make a profit.
The inhabitants of the royal city did not realize the seriousness of the situation, and they had a strong sense of separation from the invasion of hell.
The royal city had been peaceful for too long, and for these residents, even if a bird-shaped alchemy puppet flew through the sky just now to broadcast the news of the invasion of hell, they didn't think that any demon could get here through the heavy buildings.
In fact, most demons do not have the ability to directly pass through a large number of obstacles to reach the main city, however, the Purgatory Worm is one of the demons with this ability.
"Boom, click." A building that appeared to be a spire burst open, and a huge worm burst out of the ground at the base of the building, shattering the building and swallowing the occupants of it in one gulp, and then leaping high from the ruins of the collapsed building.
The Purgatory Worm, which leaped into the air, adjusted its direction and slammed down on the already frightened crowd next to it, its jagged mouthparts quickly closing, easily crushing these ordinary residents into pulp.
The Purgatory Worm, which had left a huge hole in the ground and a large amount of flesh and blood, disappeared from the surface again, ready for its next bloody predation.
"Ahh
"Demons, demons, how did you get here, the front line, why didn't the front line stop these demons, escape, run away."
The crowd began to be filled with confusion and panic, and it was only when the bloodshed and death actually happened in front of them that they began to realize the seriousness of the situation.
The chaotic crowd began to scurry around without any order and regularity, the places destroyed by the worms were impassable, the places where people could escape became narrow, and the overcrowding and panic brought about collisions and squeezing.
Someone fell, and the people behind them stepped on the body of the fallen person without any mercy or stopping, and the frightened screams of the fallen person were drowned out in the chaotic screams and gibberish of the crowd.
The fallen man stretched out his hand to try to grab something before he was trampled to the point of losing consciousness, and the hapless ghost in the crowd fell to the ground under his grasp, repeating the mistakes of the previous one who fell to the ground.
The appearance of death caused more and more confusion in the crowd, the stampede intensified the crowding, and a large number of people crowded into the not very spacious streets, and the blood here once again attracted the purgatory worms...
The earth shook, the crowd seemed to realize something, and struggled more frantically, trying to escape, but the more panicked, the more unable to move, people imprisoned each other, influenced each other, and then, the next moment, the purgatory worm broke through the ground...
The crowd was forcibly torn apart by the huge creatures, and the dense crowd gathered together was even more brutally engulfed by the huge mouthparts.
Severed limbs flew sideways, blood splattered, and this was only brought by the Infernal Worm breaking through the ground, and when the huge body fell, another large number of people were crushed into flesh by the hard, heavy worm body.
The streets have become a bloody purgatory, and this is only a corner of the royal city, and the invasion of the Purgatory Worm has occurred throughout the royal city, starting from the direction of the hell gate to spread inward, the buildings have collapsed, the ground has collapsed, and the inhabitants have been mercilessly devoured.
This semi-elemental demon with the fire element as the main earth element supplemented, can move freely through the underground after elementalization, turn into an entity when needed, and then break through the ground, using its powerful body strength to crush and prey on its prey.
They are the natural nemesis of buildings and defenses, and the severity of the plague escalates as they spread, and the city guards who form the defenses are being put to the test closer to the gates of hell.
The adaptive barrier blocked the Winged Demons, and these infernal creatures could not pose a threat to the soldiers for the time being, but the Bull Ghosts, these higher-level infernal creatures, had already rushed into the line.
"Block them, stop them, don't let them rush in!"
"No, the shield can't be carried at all, even if a heavily armored warrior is hit, he will lose all his resistance!"
The soldiers didn't have a good way to deal with these rampaging bull ghosts, and the strength of these bull ghosts was so great that even official knights couldn't take it hard.
These city guard soldiers, whose strength hovers between high-level knight apprentices and mid-rank apprentice knights, have little resistance to these rampaging bull ghosts.
When the rampaging bull ghost rushes into the army like a real mad cow with the hard shell of his head on his head, any forcible resistance is no different from seeking death.
The shield under the collapsed wall next to him was broken, his arms were twisted, and his body was dented from his chest, and the corpse that bled from the seven orifices was a true portrayal of the fate of these demons.
Even if he was wearing heavy armor and a shield, he was too weak in front of these bull ghosts, and a soldier covered in heavy armor plunged his tower shield into the ground, pressed it with his shoulders, gritted his teeth, and faced the rushing bull ghosts.
Because, behind him are the wounded soldiers who are being moved away by the reinforcement group soldiers, if he does not stand in the way, then these reinforcement team members who are helping the incapacitated soldiers to evacuate will be crushed into broken limbs by this crazy bull ghost.
"Ahh The soldier roared with fear, he seemed to know what was going to happen, but he couldn't retreat, his forehead was bruised, the bull ghost was already in front of him, and the horns on the hard carapace of his head were about to touch the shield.
At this time of life and death, the strong soldier was calm, and the crazy secretion of adrenaline successfully washed away all fear, and in the crazy roar, only anger and determination remained.
"Boom!" The Bull Ghost slammed into the thick tower shield, and the hard tower shield did not play its due role in the face of the Bull Ghost's huge charge.
"Click, click!" The sound of bones breaking was made by the soldier's arms, which could not withstand such a strong force, and the violent impact broke his bones.
The sound of gold and iron cracking that followed almost simultaneously was caused by the shield being forcibly broken from the middle, and the bull ghost's charge forced the metal tower shield into two pieces, and then slammed into the soldier's body.
"Bang!" It was the sound of metal colliding again, the hard head of the bull ghost smashed on the soldier's heavy heavy armor, and the armor on his chest was hit by a huge force, no different from the tower shield, the soldier's heavy armor was dented, and the person flew out directly, with a total weight of several hundred catties, but at this moment it flew up without weight.
"Bang!" The soldier's flying body slammed into the wall by the street, the masonry peeling off, leaving a depression in the wall, blood gushing from the corner of the soldier's mouth and bright red spilling from his nostrils.
It seemed to be the power of the Death Explosion, and the soldier was "only" broken arms, cracked sternums, and broken internal organs, and did not lose consciousness or die completely, which was really good compared to other corpses that were broken directly from the middle after trying to stop the bull ghost from hitting head-on.
"Ahem, come again." Spat out a mouthful of blood, a difficult and mocking smile appeared on the corner of the heavily armored soldier's mouth, and he looked at the bull ghost who also shook his head and looked dizzy after hitting him.
"Lao Tzu is really amazing." As if he was having fun in the midst of suffering, this seriously injured soldier didn't know why he came out of this sentence in his heart at the moment, and it was also true that he stopped the bull ghost's head-on collision, which was indeed something worth bragging about for an ordinary soldier.
The bull ghost shook his head for a while, relieving his brain, which had no IQ to speak of, that had been dizzy due to the force of the shock, and did not pay attention to the soldier, but instead looked at the soldiers of the reinforcement group who took advantage of the opportunity created by the heavily armored soldiers to continue to evacuate.
"Click." The short and thick hind legs kicked the ground, and the dust was raised, which was the precursor of the bull ghost to launch a charge, and the provocation of the heavily armored soldiers was just wishful thinking after all.
"Damn, you're here to hit Lao Tzu, what are you doing, look what you're doing there, come and hit me, you dog. Mother's Raised Stuff! Come on! The soldier's heart, which had already been opened, suddenly tensed, he didn't expect that the cow ghost was not interested in him at all, but once again became interested in the people of the rescue team.
"No, this won't work!" The heavily armored soldier struggled to sit up, but his body was so badly injured that he could no longer support his heavy equipment.
His eyes were bulging and bloodshot, staring at the bull ghost who was about to charge towards the reinforcement group, if he couldn't stop this charge, then what was the point of what he had just done, his outburst would become a joke!
But he couldn't break out a second time after all, and the limits of his body made him unable to do anything more, so he could only watch as the cow ghost's short hind limbs kicked the ground, accelerating towards the frightened reinforcement group soldiers.
"Ahhh Sou! Poof! Bang bang! The heavily armored soldier let out an unwilling roar, and the bull ghost began to accelerate without any pause, but in the middle of this, an arrow suddenly appeared and pulled an emerald green light trail and slammed into the soft tissue behind the hard shell of the cow ghost's head.
The bull ghost paused suddenly, then lost his balance, and his huge head slammed into the ground under inertia, sliding all the way down to a house next to the street.
The soldier turned his head to the roof next to the street in surprise, the longbow in the hand of the elven ranger still had the glow of magic, and Wang Yu's acquaintance, Wen Na, killed the cow ghost with an arrow from the roof.
"Drink!" In the other direction of the street, an outrageously thick armored dwarf smashed his hammer directly into the head of the bull ghost who rushed head-on, and the light of the thunder flashed, and the dwarf flew out and crashed into the shops on the street.
The cow ghost stopped directly in place, the thick head carapace cracked a little from the middle, and then completely burst, and the brain tissue that had been turned into paste by the impact of the dwarven hammer flowed out in one go.
"Haha! It's awesome! The dwarf leapt out of the building he had smashed down, and rushed to the other bull ghosts wreaking havoc in the streets.
In the streets, one by one figures appeared out of nowhere and began to deal with these raging demons in their own ways, humans, dwarves, elves, orcs, all kinds of races, these people have no formation, and there is no discipline, they just use their own methods to kill the demons.
In fact, they are the professionals of this royal city, mercenaries, adventurers, guild members, all kinds of identities, not officially registered.
However, they are also an important part of the power of the royal city, and when the main force of the city guards is mobilized to the front line, and the Night Blade is unable to attack, these people who gather and even settle because of the prosperity and resources of the royal city or other reasons become one of the most powerful combat forces to defend the royal city.
……
"Da-da-da-da." Horses in golden-red armor rushed through the streets in droves, and knights, magicians, priests, and even rangers who rode their horses arrived on the battlefield with medals that symbolized the royal family, the royal forbidden army.
The ground shook in front of the horse, and a Purgatory Worm was attracted by the extraordinarily vigorous soldiers, broke through the ground, leaped high and smashed into the entire Praetorian team.
Without the slightest pause, the horses did not show any sense of being frightened, neighing and rushing towards the worms that hit them.
"Boom, boom." The mages in the team just waved their staffs, and a huge fireball appeared out of thin air on the path that the worm smashed, and with the explosion of the fireball, the huge body of the worm was forcibly blown upside down.
The next moment, the horse rushed under the flying worm at great speed, and the leading knight pulled out the heavy sword that was almost a man high behind his back, and swept it, and the fighting spirit came out of his body, and the blade of the giant sword turned into a dazzling sword light, sweeping over the body of the worm.
"Boom." The hard shell of the worm was useless, and the corpse of the worm smashed on both sides of the Forbidden Army, and the horses jumped over the holes left by the worms, the demon could not do anything to hinder the Forbidden Army.
"Academy, test attack, first time, launch." The Lead Horseman, putting the blade back behind his back, glanced in the direction of the Gates of Hell through the helmet-wrapped observation port, pulled out a small crystal prism, and said to the crystal.
"Roger."
The next moment, from the direction of Stevenson's School of Magic, a dazzling light pierced through all obstacles, pierced the sky, and shot towards the gates of hell above the city wall area, and a huge explosion swept through the entire city wall area.
