Before those demon soldiers could react, they saw the arrows of the Red Pavilion falling from the sky like flying locusts, pouring towards the ground, instantly covering the camp of the demon army.

Those demon soldiers were caught off guard by this sudden attack, some wanted to dodge, some wanted to find something to block, and some didn't even have time to think, and were directly shot through the head by arrows.

When Demon Xingxing saw that the arrows of the Red Pavilion were not aimed at those giant demons, but were shot into the sky, he was still puzzled, and now he only knew that a catastrophe was coming.

He didn't expect these arrows to climb quickly in a steep parabola, easily bypassing the defenses of the giant demons in the front row. Then it fell leisurely in the air, shooting directly at the little demons in the back row with weak defenses.

For a while, the demons screamed one after another, and many little demons fell one after another under the attack of arrows, and the entire battlefield instantly turned into a sea of wails.

"No!" Exotic Star shouted in horror. The Flame Demons beside him fell in pieces, and just as he was about to summon the Giant Demon to fend him off, a sudden stabbing pain occurred in his shoulder.

His left shoulder had been pierced by a bow and arrow, and he was bleeding profusely.

"Attack!" Fili shouted, and thousands of Red Pavilion warriors suddenly appeared behind him, led by Danica, who rushed towards the Alien Star Legion with spears held high and shouting.

Demon Star still wants to resist, but when he sees Danica's axe hammer, he flies a double-shielded imp with a bang, and another axe chops off the head of another demon soldier. A giant demon behind him just wanted to stumble on her, but she broke her calf with a backhand hammer!

Boom!

The huge Goliath Demon fell heavily to the ground, causing a shock.

Danica stepped on the demon's head and shouted at the demon star from afar, "Even a group of incompetent demons like you dare to fight us?" Who are you, the corrupt and incompetent Empire of the Wild Sands? ”

With that, she leaped to her feet with her axe in both hands, and slashed off the demon's head with a click.

There was a panic in the heart of the Demon Star. He still has hole cards, and if he sends out the "Double Knife Ghost Face Soldier" now, he will definitely not lose very badly. But it was clear that the Red Pavilion was not targeting him, nor were the demons. It's the soul cannons in the center of the army.

The production process of the soul cannon is extremely complicated, and if a cannon is lost, it will be painful for the Demon Star and even the entire demon race.

"I can't continue to consume them anymore." The Demonic Star Archmage stared silently at the battlefield in front of him, and an unprecedented sense of crisis surged in his heart: as far as the immediate situation was concerned, the soul cannon could be destroyed at any time; Besides, the Red Pavilion's large army had already rushed to the Desert Temple.

He suddenly figured out something: "This team of men and horses may be here to delay the progress of our army!" ”

At this moment, a cold sweat suddenly broke out behind the Demon Alien Star, if it was really as he thought, then he had to make a decision right now.

He glanced at the several giant demons in the front row, and although they were badly injured, these powerful demons still stubbornly held their ground. Under the onslaught of the Red Pavilion soldiers, they were like a dam, blocking wave after wave of offensives.

"Looks like they'll be able to hold on for a little longer." Monster Star gritted his teeth and finally made a difficult decision.

"Retreat." He ordered in deep sorrow.

He knew that this decision could bring some losses, but he knew better that it didn't make any sense to him if he continued to fight.

As the magic wave of the magic of the magic of the magic star, those demons immediately received the order. The Wild Bull Demon humped all the soul cannons, and other demons, large and small, quickly gathered beside the Demon Star.

Demon Star took one last look at the giant demon soldiers who were still fighting Danica and Fili, and said silently, "I hope this decision is the right one." ”

With that, he mounted an alpaca and led the remaining demon legions to quickly leave the battlefield taking advantage of the chaos.

And Fili and Danica didn't chase much after him. The two took advantage of the chaos to cover up and kill for a while, and eliminated several giant demons. In line with the mentality of running and reaping when you catch it, he happily withdrew with the army.

……

After escaping the pursuit of the Red Pavilion, Demon Star led an army of demons like a group of outlaws, walking through the desert in embarrassment. Their steps were hurried and tired, and they all looked sluggish, but they were only half a day's rapid march, but they seemed to have experienced a long and arduous escape journey.

Although the demon is a creature refined by the demon race, it is still a creature in the final analysis, and they also need to eat, drink, and Lazar, of course, including the necessary rest.

However, this long retreat did not give them a chance to rest at all. With the scorching sun on their heads and the hot yellow sand under their feet, the demons sighed and screamed all the way.

During this long escape, the Demon Star himself was also sharp, and he always felt that his heart was hanging in the air, and he could not settle down. All sorts of things flashed back before his eyes like a marquee.

"If we had set out a few days earlier and attacked Rafis City, perhaps the battle would not have been like this." A burst of remorse welled up in my heart, "As long as you occupy Rafis City and bombard the Imperial City with soul artillery, maybe the war will be over......"

He suddenly remembered those black-robed knights again, "These hateful 'Deadwood Gate' cultists, I have long advised the Wild Sand Emperor to clean up these damn untouchables. Darius also claimed to have exterminated three generations of their people, and now he has ruined my big deal. ”

Demon Xingxing continued to think about it, and soon he pointed the finger at Prince Babu again: "That stupid prince, when the capture of the imperial capital is obviously close at hand, would he agree to retreat to the Wild Sand Temple and become a little vassal king?" I really don't know what kind of drug Tsukihime poured on him. ”

In the end, he attributed the root of everything to Tsukihime: "The daughter of the Demon Lord is really reckless, and she actually ruined her plan for the sake of a reckless man like Darius. What kind of love brain would do such a stupid thing? ”

The anxiety, worry, and remorse in his mind were like a scorching tongs of fire, clamping fiercely on his heart.

"Report!" In the distance, several scouts rushed towards them in disarray. They rode on a weak alpaca, covered in dust, with a look of exhaustion and fear on their faces, and when they saw the banner of the Demon Star coming, they hurriedly rushed over to say goodbye.

Demonic Star waved his hand and asked a few of them to come forward and speak.

This is another wave of scouts he has arranged along the way, tasked with scouting the situation in the Ganar Oasis. Although this oasis is not large, it is indeed an important supply station in the Magic Star plan. When he set out from the Temple of Wild Sands, he also replenished fresh water here.

It's just that looking at the hurried appearance of these people, Demon Alien already has a little ominous premonition in his heart.

"Report to the Archmage, the situation ahead is not good," one of the scout leaders reported breathlessly, "there is an ambush near the Ganar Oasis. ”

Demon Star clicked in his heart, and a hint of horror flashed in his tired eyes. However, he quickly concealed the panic in his heart, and asked pretending to be calm, "Are you sure?" ”

The leader of the scouts nodded, and said affirmatively: "We have been pretending to be merchants stationed near the Ganar Oasis, and the day before yesterday, three waves of cavalry passed through the oasis one after another, and they should be stepping on the point." ”

Another scout added, "Early yesterday morning, before dawn, we heard a dense crowd of footsteps coming towards the oasis. We hurriedly withdrew from the Ghanaian Oasis. ”

The leader of the scouts said, "When the men came, we hid ourselves in the distance, and we saw a dusty cloud. Then it was as if the people had disappeared, and I think they had dug tunnels and hid in the ground to lay in ambush. ”

The Magic Star was silent for a moment.

Of course, he knew how bad it was to be in an ambush, but it was just as bad if he had lost this supply point. He was so thirsty that the jug in the army had long since poured out a drop of water.

After much thought, he still asked with difficulty, "Are you really sure that there are ambushes there?" ”

The Scout Captain nodded, "We sent two men back to the Ganar Oasis posing as merchants, but these two men disappeared as soon as they stepped into the oasis. ”

Of course, people don't disappear into thin air, and the only plausible explanation is that these two people have been captured by the army in the oasis.

Demon Xingxing's brows furrowed, and the two thoughts in his heart were fighting fiercely.

Should you take this risk? Monster Star asked himself again and again.

Eventually, conservative thinking prevailed. Pain and regret flashed in his tired eyes, but he didn't say anything, just gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice, "What is the nearest road other than the Ganar Oasis?" ”

The scout captain looked embarrassed, "The nearest road to the Wild Sand Temple is probably the White Water Spring. ”

"White Water Spring?" There was a sudden spirit in the eyes of the Demon Star, after all, this place knew that it was a water source just by hearing the name.

The scout captain said with a bitter face, "Baishui Spring is an undercurrent, but there are many quicksands around it, once you step on it, you will definitely die and there are no bones left, it is a forbidden place. ”

"Walk Baisha Spring and avoid the ambush of the Red Pavilion." Magic Star said.

The scout captain exclaimed, "But ......"

Demon Xingxing's tired body stiffened on the alpaca, and then shouted loudly, "There is no 'but', I have already said it, the whole army is going to Baisha Spring!" Fast! Take action! ”

For him, he now has no other choice.

Hearing this order, the demon army slowly changed direction, like a heavy bear, stumbling in the direction of the southeast. The pace of the demon soldiers was even more tired, and their morale fell to the bottom, and they complained all the way, but the demon alien star couldn't care so much.

"Hurry up." He scolded, "We need to rush back to the Sand Temple as soon as possible!" ”

He believed that as long as he returned to the Temple of Wild Sands, everything would be fine.
