Chapter 159: Intermission
The black pyramid slowly rises from the ground until it ceases to move.
The army of Nurgle ran away in desperation.
The humans who had already been torn apart and resisted in despair couldn't help but be stunned, and many of them had their brains down for a while, as if the scene in front of them was a dream.
"What the hell ......"
A grave keeper cavalryman who had been knocked off his horse had a fairly good view, and caught a glimpse of the side of the oasis in the rear, where a black pyramid suddenly appeared.
Although it is not clear what exactly happened, it is clear that the demons collectively ignored the human race and converged in that direction, obviously because of the Black Pyramid, what should they do at this time? In fact, there is no need to think about it, taking this opportunity to kill a few more demons is the right way, and many human warriors with strong beliefs do just that.
Soon the scattered resistance stopped.
The thought sharing from Professor X reminds the scattered humans to gather and line up as soon as possible and return to the oasis to build and work together.
The demons were only temporarily distracted.
In order to lure away the demons, the human side has paid a price that is not visible at the moment, and their remaining forces cannot live up to this price, and before the reinforcements arrive, they will use the oasis as the last position to entangle, and make the last resistance is what they have to prepare for.
Everyone is extremely tired at the moment.
Fighting with the charge of the Nurgle demon in close quarters one after another, both physically and mentally bearing huge pressure, as soon as they relaxed, let alone standing, many people simply collapsed directly into the muddy mud with their eyes closed, greedily enjoying the rare and rare rest time.
Heavy losses.
After making sure that the war had stopped abruptly for a while, the angel flapped his wings and roughly counted the surviving humans on the field.
There may be only about two thousand, or even less.
This is really ...... compared to the tens of thousands of people before the second wave of resistance began
"It's tragic." The demon girl was also exhausted at the moment, carrying two scimitars that had been completely cut and scrapped in her hands, she looked at the bloody battlefield in a daze, did humans really want to continue to bleed like this?
Is this high and heavy price really worth it for human civilization?
If this resistance continues, the Americas, Europe, and now Africa, what about the future?
In Australia, Asia, the North and South Poles, and outer space, how many individuals do humans have to die and how many lives can be burned to achieve their goals? Raven couldn't help but fall into an eerie silence, she sat in the filthy blood and mud regardless of her image, her face was covered with blood and sweat, she sat in place for maybe a few minutes, and the angel who fell from the sky interrupted her rest, and the follow-up sorting personnel, gathering troops to return to the oasis, all needed the assistance of the demon girl.
There are almost 2,000 people left, and basically the establishment has been crippled.
Many of the grave keepers' troops were simply wiped out.
It's still a bit difficult to organize now, and many people are facing the mutilated corpses covered with messy battlefields, and too many emotions are blocked in their throats, and they don't know how to vent.
There is also no time for them to vent.
Fortunately, with Professor X's super-large range of spiritual abilities as a guide, everyone's emotions were temporarily suppressed, and the goal of completing the withdrawal to the oasis was the highest priority. As for the collection of corpses, it can only be given up first, tidy up themselves, rescue the wounded, and then retreat, a group of people can't help but look back when they walk out of this bloody place, in addition to the tragedy, there can be more than a surging but unforgettable sadness in the air.
The grave keeper clan may be wiped out.
With so many people left, the next battle will definitely be a drop in the bucket.
Apocalypse sighed a little, as a king, he was not qualified, he could not protect his subjects, the only thing he could do was to select some of the tomb keepers and young children in the kneeling of the great elders of the tomb keeper, give blessings and send them away from the oasis.
Let the kids head south.
The farther you go, the better.
At the very least, you can get away from this dangerous area and enjoy a comfortable time, instead of being scared like a frightened bird.
But Apocalypse himself knows that no matter how high or far he goes, he can't get out of the claws of chaos. As a king, it is difficult for an ancient warrior against chaos to provide these loyal sandfolk with eternal security and can only provide such a temporary and comfortable anesthetic land.
The source of all evil comes from chaos.
It would be nice if there was no chaos in this world, no subspace, and no terrible existence like Li Lin, who responds to requests and tries to redeem all mankind. What kind of picture would that be, a beautiful scene?
At least for this one possibility.
Apocalypse, who has lived for an unknown amount of time, is willing to cooperate with the guardians of Terra, even if the price of cooperation is that he is destined to sacrifice.

The Black Pyramid is being clinged to and corrupted by the Nurgle Army.
The black pyramid was so integrated that there were not many gaps in sight, and the layers of dense runes of the Sun Sutra shimmered with a surging glow, weaving into a string to form a huge prison, calcining the immortal things at the core.
One demon after another, at their own expense, canceled out the runes containing the power of the sun.
As soon as the Sun Sutra, which burned and burned all the unclean and filthy sutras, was stimulated by the demon, it immediately released a pale flame that was almost substantial, like the vent of a stove, and ignited the demon instantly!
However, the Sun True Scripture rune had just finished burning a demon with tenacious vitality, and immediately a new demon would pounce on it to fill the vacancy, and under this kind of deadly consumption, soon some runes fell into a state of darkness due to the lack of strength. At the same time, a desperate and terrifying force immediately invaded the black pyramid, corroding all the building areas with dark runes, like aqua regia eroding metal.
This majestic black pyramid is like a huge living creature at the moment.
Countless demons clinged to it densely, collectively wriggling and dissolving, creating a terrifying scene that could not be described clearly in a few words.
From time to time, white flames erupted from the demons, tearing apart the demons on the pyramid, and the frequency of this white flame spray was obviously slowing down. At first, it was a succession of films, but after more than ten minutes, it had already begun to decline, and the pyramid had been cut by one layer.
At this rate.
In about an hour, the demon of Nurgle will be able to reach the High Priest deep in the pyramid.
Not to mention, there are also rotten giants who have not stepped forward to corrupt themselves. If it were to be added to it, the hour-long time would have shrunk considerably.
