Chapter 16: The Ebb and Flow
How long the life and soul of a master can burn, no one knows. When Hade and the others followed Wella to the front, the brilliant fire they saw was still burning and rolling forward, forming a wall of fire more than ten kilometers long and hundreds of meters high, driving the tide of darkness back one after another.
And Grand Duke West's Red Flame Wolf King partner was already unable to support it after several fierce and incomparable flame collisions, and Zuihou turned into a crumbling ball of fire and merged into the burning wall of fire of the Grand Duke.
However, it has already completed its mission, not only defeating many high-level demonic beast clusters, killing five king-level demonic beasts one after another, Zuihou has also severely damaged the biggest rival of this dark tide, the core commander of the demonic beasts, the Heart Snatcher Demon King.
Most of the spherical body became charred black, and even the original best source power shield could not be deployed smoothly, and a large number of high-level demonic beast guards that were originally controlled by it around it collapsed one after another, and obviously even the mind control skills began to fail, and the giant eyeball-like monster screamed and struggled, and then was overwhelmed by the wall of fire advanced by the Grand Duke of West with consciousness.
"Lord West's Burning Fire Wolf Realm is so powerful, that guy was killed before he even had time to unfold his life-saving spiritual magic shield. Hade breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the most intractable monster of this dark tide perish.
"The troops on the left side should pay attention to opening the gap and let those small groups of demonic beasts around the fifth order escape into the gray mountains. Two of the three gaps in the Black Stone Forest have been blocked in advance, and there are too many low-level monsters, which will greatly prolong the time for the Tide of Darkness to be forced into the Black Stone Forest. ”
Wella has retaken command of the troops belonging to Roland City, and has begun to calmly arrange various tactics.
Hade was also trying his best to observe the current situation, and approached Wei Na slightly and whispered a suggestion: "There are also a lot of demonic beast clusters above the sixth order and less than the seventh order. However, as long as you try your best to kill the boss-type monsters in the various monster species, especially the elemental monsters and terrestrial monsters over there. Even if these monsters flee to other regions, they will be greatly damaged by the competition for the position of leader, and they will not be able to recover the overall strength of the race for several years. ”
Nodding slightly. Wella still trusted Hide's wealth of knowledge about Warcraft, and several heralds were immediately dispatched by her to the locations of the commanders of the Thousand Cavalry to deliver instructions.
The Bone Knights of the Fifth Legion, who were responsible for blocking the right side, were the most obedient to the tactical arrangement. Especially the deputy commander, Count Deland of the Buddy family, is the most hard-working high-ranking powerhouse among them.
The Dark Mage from the Death's Hand family was not at all a spell fighter from his actions. This burly, tall, honest-looking man does not look like a mage with a weaker physique at all, but is closer to a melee hand-to-hand fighter.
Diland's whole body was wrapped in countless demonic beast bones that had killed him, forming an extremely bloody demonic bone armor, and he held a thick bone stick in each hand that was condensed and mixed by countless broken bones, and the shape was extremely hideous and dissatisfied with various bone spurs, and countless bone broken shields swirled around his body, and these bone shields flew out and exploded from time to time. Push back the many monsters that are trying to break through.
He himself often rushed into the cluster of demonic beasts, wielding the bone rod in his hand to kill, and after the bone rod was broken, several bones were extracted from the bodies of several dead demonic beasts and re-condensed into new weapons. Relying on the powerful demon bone armor on the body to resist the attacks of various high-level monsters, after the bone armor is broken and damaged, a few bones are extracted from the corpse of a certain demonic beast to fill in and fuse, forming a new bone armor, and so on.
The bloody and brave way of fighting greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers of the legion under his leadership, and from a distance, the tall figure covered in flesh and bones was no different from the legendary berserker.
“...... It's really a real iron-blooded man. "Head had to admit it.
The Buddy family is the most feared family among the four wealthy families in the imperial capital. It's not because they're arrogant and domineering, on the contrary, the descendants of the Badi family in the past generations are all well-educated conservatives, low-key and never cause trouble, and each generation of elite children have entered the army step by step. Honestly obeying the arrangements of the royal family, he was once called the most loyal nobleman of the empire by the previous Olympian emperor.
But the unique inheritance of the demonic bones of the most loyal noble family in the empire is too brutal for anyone who has seen their way of fighting. will involuntarily reject from the bottom of the heart, no one can believe that such a bloodthirsty and violent person in battle is a gentle old man in a normal state.
For example, now Deelander's body is covered with blood and bones. The hideous appearance of large pieces of flesh and blood debris between the rotation of the body is even much more terrifying than most demonic beasts. The miserable howls of many demonic beasts that had not yet died were forced out of their bodies by him were really terrible, and that kind of terrifying appearance like a ghost and god could indeed boost morale in a fierce battle, but I believe that everyone present would subconsciously dare not approach this disgusting guy after the battle was over.
There are even rumors that as long as you shake hands with someone in the "Hand of Death" family, they may inadvertently pull out the hand bones.
"Those guys have made it instinctive to pull bones out of other creatures, just like we walk and breathe, who would dare to gamble with their own bodies that they will accidentally make a mistake?" These rumors are familiar even to many civilians in other cities.
The other day, while resting on hunting monsters in the Grey Mountains, Hade had also heard from Wella about her impressions of this Delander. According to her, among the three central armies that came to support the south this time, I am afraid that only this Diland is a real imperial soldier, who will not complain about being tired for no reason, and he also takes the lead in battle, and seems to appreciate this big man who is honest and honest on the outside and more down-to-earth in his heart.
"That's true," Hade watched as the Bloody Bone Demon-like figure rushed back and forth to the front line, constantly erecting a wall of blood and bones to protect his subordinates in danger, "In contrast, that Sastan actually led his subordinate soldiers to pursue the elven army at this time, and he simply forgot the main purpose of this battle. ”
Just now, Wella had asked the psychic dark mage in charge of remote communication to activate the long-range psychic chain to alert Sastan Degens, but the reply said that she would try her best to completely annihilate the elven army in a short period of time, and then immediately return to assist in the joint operation.
Wella's face was very ugly. However, both sides are at the same level as the Imperial Army, and the Dragon Vein has the title of Master. Under the banner of legitimately eradicating future troubles, there is really no way to restrain his troops.
"Don't worry. I have already asked the female assassin to rush back to Roland City to mobilize the latest small magic weapons, and I have sent back the news from Viscount Shortia that she is working on it in a hurry, and she should be able to rush to support at this time. ”
Hearing Hade say this, Wella looked at him with some surprise, nodded slightly and didn't ask.
As early as yesterday, Hade had asked Ninija to rush back to Roland City to contact the goblin craftsman master Ke Bi and the winged royal sister with black wings on her back, and tried her best to mobilize craftsmen to hurry up to make a two-order Rubik's Cube crystal nuclear bomb. As for the third-order Rubik's Cube Bomb, First Head still had some concerns. The second is that Roland City really doesn't have the financial resources to afford a large number of third-order Rubik's Cube bombs.
You must know that the simplest and most economical fourth-order Rubik's Cube Crystal Nucleus Bomb also requires eight elemental crystal nuclei of about LV40 to achieve the ideal power, and the combination of too low level really can't affect the monsters of the Dark Tide.
And even if you don't count the cost of expensive materials such as the Rubik's Cube shell and the magic mercury filled inside, eight elemental crystal nuclei of about LV40 are worth at least more than 3,000 gold coins. Many commoners do not have such a high income after working hard for a year, and this kind of high-priced weapon is really not something that ordinary people and even many nobles can afford.
As for the third-order Rubik's Cube bomb that needs to be filled with about twenty-six LV40 elemental crystal nuclei, I am afraid that it can only be afforded with national-level financial resources, and even the finances of a border autonomous city like Roland City cannot afford too much. Even the fairy craftsmen who make money like running water and spend money like flowing water are very distressed when they make shiyan.
Looking up into the air again, Hade frowned as he looked at the Demon Warriors of the Third Legion who were trying their best to hunt down the cluster of flying monsters and insects that had long since collapsed. In particular, Miss Hiro Davo, nicknamed the "Nightmare Death Rider", was particularly dead-eyed, and the fourth-order giant jaw demon beetle swarm that was scattered and fleeing in all directions had to rush up and kill them all, which was really a waste of combat power.
"Your Excellency Wella. Hide reminded her, raising his hand and pointing to the sky.
Wella glanced at her and immediately understood what Hade meant. He immediately sent a telekinesis chain to the accompanying psychic black mage, alerting the hot-blooded female general who seemed to be carried away by the fierce battle. You must know that using alienated wings to fly in the air is actually the most physically demanding, and it is simply impossible to continue fighting for a long time. Otherwise, the empire would not need to spend so much money and manpower to train the aerial combat power of flying mounts.
Soon after, the demon warriors of the Third Legion in mid-air retracted their black wings, which resembled demonized batskin wings. One after another, they fell to the ground and changed their combat methods, including the Hiro lady of the Davo family. I saw that after she landed, she whistled and summoned the Nightmare Mount that had been following the troops on the ground. Flip over and jump onto the saddle of the black unicorn's back, swing the giant scythe in your hand and continue the battle with enthusiasm.
In Have's opinion, her special magical beast mount, Nightmare Beast, should not have exceeded the eighth order. The blue fire shining on the four hooves is not particularly powerful, otherwise it can float through the air.
The aerial attack was handed over to the Griffin Knights of Roland City, this time the Dark Tide Flying Monsters were not very powerful, these elite air forces had already completed the air combat mission very dutifully before, and now they had the air superiority and joined forces with the ground forces, making the Dark Tide rout even faster.
The human troops on both sides of the ground and in the air took turns to block it, relying on the rudimentary defense line set up in advance, trying to control most of the demonic beast clusters and gradually approaching the dark black stone forest area according to the predetermined path. The journey of nearly two hundred kilometers had been completed in just three hours, and after several days of continuous fighting, due to death and rout, the front of the dark tide had been reduced to less than 200,000 due to death and rout, and the front had been forced to retreat into the gap reserved in the black stone forest area.
However, it is obvious that the glorious flame formed by the burning life of Duke West has begun to slowly weaken, and although the Tide of Darkness is still retreating into the Black Stone Forest like a tide under the suppression of the Burning Fire Wolf Domain, it is difficult to say whether this Tide of Darkness can be completely expelled into the Black Stone Forest area.
