Chapter 949: The Battle for Survival
Everything is always relative, and there is never an absolute in the world. So when faced with a huge number of enemies, even the fearless courage of the Asaks could not stop the invaders.
He had forgotten how many black monsters he had killed, and he only knew that every time he waved his arm, he could no longer feel the lightness he used to be. Yes, but as heavy as a mountain. Every muscle was trembling, and every cell was reminding him that his physical strength was almost at its limit. It's just that Gog didn't let himself fall, and kept hinting to himself: I can continue!
However, when another guard was put down, Gog looked to see that the high walls of the village were already full of corpses. There were Akzak warriors, and there were invaders. There were less than a hundred infantry warriors left, and they could only rely on the support of the high wall and the wolf riders above. But how long will they last, maybe 10 minutes, maybe 10 seconds, who knows?
The Wolf Knight's steel edges were also finished, and only the occasional burst arrow or two barely held back the intruder's attack. But there are so many intruders, and the black pressure is like a wave that never sees the end. From the eyes of each warrior, Gog could no longer see fear, but was numb. The sheer number of enemies has long since made them no longer even fearful.
"Retreat. "Everyone is ready to retreat, warriors of Asak, you have done a good job. Now I order you to retreat as the patriarch, and before leaving, let us give them a gift!"
Under Gog's orders, the remaining infantry warriors gradually retreated into the village. Gao Ge was in charge of the back of the hall, and the wounds on the patriarch's body were already too many to count, but he still struggled to dance the only two steel ridges in his hands. The steel ridge flew in the chief's hand like a short spear, fending off an untold attack from him. Sometimes, Gog couldn't dodge all of these attacks, and could only use the unimportant parts to block the guard's claws.
The Steel-Edged occasionally strikes with lightning strikes, which are bound to leave a bloody hole in the Guardian's body.
In just two minutes, Gog's injury was several points worse. Seeing that he couldn't support it, suddenly the figure in front of him flickered, but it was five wolf knights who jumped down. Three of them roared and crashed into the guards, pushing the monster out of the way. The remaining two dragged Gog to a side door, and Gog groaned, "Why are you back?"
"The Assaks can't do without their chief!" shouted one of the knights, lunging forward as he pounced, knocking down seven or eight of the guards who were rushing towards them.
The remaining knight slammed Gog into the side door and pulled it shut, saying, "Patriarch, the gift is ready. It's our honor that you don't have to worry about us, we can buy you a little time. ”
Gog gasped, pounded the ground with his hands, and then stood up against the wall: "It's my honor to be able to fight alongside you. ”
With that, Gog took a deep breath and ran towards the back of the village. He had only run a few meters away when several explosions rang out from behind the high wall. Gog knew what that meant, but he didn't stop. How could he easily waste the time that a few wolf riders had exchanged their lives for him?
The guards began to storm the gates of the village, and more often climbed the high walls and climbed over the walls to enter. Gog had already left the gate at the back of the village, and he closed the gate. Sandwiched between the doors were a cluster of fuses connected to barrels of explosives placed in various corners of the village, of the priest's own design. When all the explosives explode together, the power of the explosion will overlap each other throughout the village, creating a huge amount of destructive power. According to the priest, the explosion was enough to send the village flying into the sky.
Gog reached out and grabbed the fuses, brushed them vigorously, and immediately all the fuses were lit. He stopped standing and ran on. After running for a few meters, his physical strength was a little exhausted, and the person leaned forward. A giant gray-white wolf suddenly flashed out, it caught Gog and lowered itself so that Gog could climb up. Gog laughed, reluctantly climbed up to the gray wolf and said, "Old man, you have to run faster, or be careful to let the fire burn your ass." ”
The giant wolf snorted and ran towards the forest in front of him. As soon as they ran into the woods, the village of the Asaks suddenly roared, and a series of explosions formed a huge fireball. The explosion swept the entire village into the air, engulfing everything in the village in a furious flame. The guards who had just entered the village were blown up, and none of them survived.
Gog barely looked behind him, and through the gap in the leaves, he could see the dazzling fire lighting up in the direction of the village. and some swaying figures in the firelight. He snorted, as if to himself, "We'll be back, just wait." ”
That night, there were only a few alien tribes left in the Twilight Forest. Except for a few of the Asaks who escaped, the rest of the clans were overwhelmed and wiped out by the black wave. The Asaks made their way through the thorny jungle, and the Amandas received a message from Gog and sent troops to answer it. The badly wounded Gog was taken directly to the temple for healing, while the rest of the Asaks traveled to the holy city of Hakara under the protection of the Amanda.
During the daylight of the next day, a black wave rolled out of the Twilight Forest. After pausing for a moment as he entered the Poison Ridge, he continued to move forward. In front of tens of thousands of guards, the poisonous insects of the highly poisonous mountains can only stir up a small wave. However, the thorny jungle slowed down the tide, and in the face of this natural environment, the guards did not have a good solution. They don't have the familiar forest paths, so they can only tread the jungle alive.
Even a large number of biological weapons wasted an entire day in this jungle. As they emerge from the Thorn Jungle, they are attacked by the Amanda. The Amandans, who had taken the form of a griffin and eagle beast, attacked the guards from the air, and although the guards were numerous, they did not have the means to fly, but the bone spurs behind them were able to be launched.
Just like the tail spurs of a bee, these bone spurs of the guardian are actually connected to many important nerves in the body. Once launched, they don't live long. But biological weapons have no fear, let alone death. Instinctively driven by instinct, the first to leave the jungle was willing to sacrifice his own life and shoot bone spurs to attack the Amanda in the air in exchange for a buffer space for his followers.
After leaving behind the corpses of hundreds of guards, the Amandas who attacked the monsters were reduced from a dozen to three. The remaining three behemoths flew in the direction of the Blood Leader, and the guards who poured out of the jungle split into two groups, one small group chasing the Amanda and the larger group pointing in the direction of Hakhara. But a small group of guards stopped, devouring the corpses of their companions and falling into a brief slumber.
These guards devouring the corpses of their companions are undergoing changes in their bodies. They begin to evolve, and this process takes anywhere from two to three days. When they complete their evolution, their abilities will be further enhanced. By that time, they will be the full version of the Guardian.
That was originally the original form of the Guardian, but because Prosius lowered the requirements for the Star Destroyer, the level of the Guardian produced was also lowered. As a result, in order to evolve to the full version, it is necessary to devour the corpses of the same kind to replenish itself.
After evolving to the full version, the Guardian will complete the anti-air attack, and even the Amandas will lose their air superiority at that time.
And then there was the small detachment that chased the Amandan guards, not long after entering the Blood Domain. The peaks on both sides of the Blood Collar suddenly exploded, and the explosives planted early in the morning blew up the mountain walls of the preset location, and countless rockfalls buried hundreds of guards.
This little episode could not stop the black waves, which rushed day and night. Finally, on the morning of the third day, I saw the majestic holy mountain, and the white holy city of Ukhara!
"The gods are above, and there are so many invaders?"
Facing the white-skinned city wall in the direction of the thorny jungle, a figure leaning forward slightly. The alien was wrapped in a short, hooded cloak with a pair of loose pants at the hem of the cloak. There were no shoes, and a pair of hooked claws of lizard feet protruded from the trouser tube, and three toes clung tightly to the ground. Therefore, this not sturdy figure seems to be swaying slightly from side to side in the wind, and it looks like it is weak and can't help the wind. But in fact, he stood firmer than anyone else.
The wind lifted the hood, revealing the head of a lizard.
"Turin, we don't have a god on our heads for a long time. A quiet voice rang out, and in the castle of the city, Ba Jin stepped out.
The patriarch of the Amanda people is still as humble as an anthropologist, but when he faced Albert that day, Ba Jin, who threw a stunning punch in the blood mountains, is now known as the strongest man in the Black Land. Beneath this seemingly gentle exterior, there is a power as fierce as a volcano.
The new patriarch of the Silver Frost Clan, Turin, smiled: "I'm just used to it, speaking of which, how is Gaoge's injury?"
"Can't die. However, you have to rest for a while. But I just heard that the guy is clamoring to go down the holy mountain. Ba Jin said.
"He can't come!"
A woman's voice sounded, obviously a woman, but the voice was extremely penetrating. The sound like a broken gold stone made Turin squint slightly, and then said, "Lan, as a woman, can't you be a little quieter?"
Two long, smooth legs extending from the hem of the narrow skirt were gently swinging along the edge of the wall of the Bunker, and the woman in the close-fitting thin coat had long, flamboyant pale red hair. The woman's fingers gently stroked the pattern of the agave on her chest, and finally landed on the hilt of a long-handled chopping knife and said, "I'm sorry, I've always been like this." Those sneaky moves are not for me, you say, Turin. ”
This woman is none other than one of the elders of the Holy Temple, the patriarch of the Kaz clan, Lan.
Turin's eyes flickered, and he said indifferently: "Does the sneaky mean me?"
"Is there anyone else here?" Lan chuckled lightly.
Turin sneered, his gaze falling on Lan's slasher, which was Lan's weapon. The handle and the blade are more than two meters long, and Biran's height is half a meter higher. The blade is forged from layers of fine iron, and the blade surface has natural scales. The handle of the knife is made of the most heavy black steel, and the production of black steel is very small, which is also a specialty of the Kaz people. However, the black steel used to forge the hilt of the Lan weapon was enough to use up the Kaz tribe's inventory for ten years.
The "Dragon's Tooth" chopping knife, with a net weight of two tons, dances like wind and thunder, and is a rare heavy weapon. Don't look at Lan's petite stature, less than 160 centimeters tall, but she uses heavy weapons that are extremely disproportionate to her size. In her hands, the dragon's teeth were like a dragon on control, crushing the bodies of all those who were against her.
Lan has taken a fierce path, while the Silver Frost Clan is known for its varied and strange killing skills. Therefore, whether it is the previous patriarch Silver or the current Turin, the Lan and Silver Frost Clans always have a little incompatibility, which is somewhat related to the difference in personality.
Ba Jin coughed lightly and said, "If you have the strength to argue, you might as well leave it to those invaders." ”
"I'm in favor of that, or, Lan, you can leave your strength in another aspect. What do you think of the bed, for example?" came another tall figure from the bunker, but it was the wolf king Kaidon, who had been seriously injured by Albert that day and stayed in Ukara to recuperate.
Now that Cayton has not only recovered from his injuries, but his breath is far colder than before, it seems that his strength has risen to a higher level. He wore a Kazi samurai attire, a loose blouse fastened with a black belt, and wide-legged trousers. The sleeves were ripped off by Cayton, revealing two hairy arms.
During the period of recuperation, he and Lan fell in love, and now who does not know the relationship between the two. Just to say it to Cayton in front of so many people, no matter how heroic Lan is, she is still a woman after all. Suddenly, his face flushed with red tide, and he clenched his teeth and said, "I knew that your mouth was so stinky, and I should have made you dumb by the way that day." ”
Cayton touched his mouth and said, "Are you willing? This thing doesn't just talk." ”
Lan's face flushed even more, and Ba Jin couldn't help but shake his head. Turin turned his face away, his body trembling slightly, and he couldn't tell if he was swaying in the wind or snickering behind his back. However, with Kaiton's disruption, the atmosphere was not as tense as it was just now.
"Seeing that you still have the heart to laugh at this time, I am a lot more relieved. Wig's old voice rang out: "Big man, don't stick here, get out of the way." ”
Cayton hurriedly walked away to the side and let the door open. In the dark castle, the Holy Temple Elder Wei Ge and the Tattooed Spider Clan's Patriarch Pan Sen came out together, and when they saw Wei Ge, Ba Jin frowned and said, "Why are you here too, isn't it better to stay on the Holy Mountain?"
"What's the matter, everyone has hit the door, do you want me to hide at home?" Wegg rolled his eyes and said, "We don't have any way out, so it makes no difference whether we stay on the holy mountain or not." ”
At this time, almost all the patriarchs of several powerful clans in the Black Land had arrived, except for Gao Ge, who was seriously injured and could not participate in the battle, the patriarchs of all clans were all here. In the vicinity of the holy city of Ukhala, in addition to the large and small villages that had been built, there were countless more camps, which were temporary resting places set up by the warriors of various ethnic groups who had arrived one after another in the past few days. Outside the tents are painted with the totemic symbols of each clan, and there are thousands of them interspersed between the villages.
These were the last troops of the Black Land, and after concentrating the warriors of each clan, the total number of warriors who could participate in the battle was seventy thousand. It may seem like the number of guards, but not all clan warriors are experienced in battle, and some of the weaker clan's warriors are more often just slightly stronger hunters.
There are less than 30,000 truly elite warriors, and that is made up of warriors from powerful clans like Ba Jin. In view of the growing prestige of Ba Jin after the Battle of the Blood Collar, the command of the army in this war was entrusted to Ba Jin.
In fact, many strong clan patriarchs are like Lan. If they want to fight alone, they are not inferior to the strong of human beings, but they are far from leading troops to fight. Only a patriarch like Ba Jin, who is actively learning about human civilization, or Gao Ge, who is active in the Atazakh tribe on the front line of the war with the blood horse invaders, has the experience of marching and fighting.
Now that Goge is seriously injured, it is naturally appropriate to hand over the command to Ba Jin. In fact, after Zero's departure, the ties between the various ethnic groups have become much closer than before. Putting aside those weak clans, the few strong clan warriors of the Black Land have asked Ba Jin to gather together for unified drills many times, in order to prevent the occurrence of the current large-scale invasion war, but the various clans are still fighting separately and cannot give full play to the most effective incidents.
Now, the previous multiple drills came in handy. From the distribution of the camp tents to the spirit of the warriors, it is clear that the strong warriors after the drill appear to be well-trained. In the days of preparation for the battle, they had already dug trenches in the hilly terrain on the periphery, laid traps and other work. And when they were arranging, the warriors of the other clans were more of a hunter, and even those who had nothing to do were there.
Ba Jin was naturally dissatisfied with this situation, but he was helpless. After all, the clans of the Black Earth have always been loosely structured, and they are bound together by faith and are destined to be as closely connected as they are within humans. Otherwise, it would not have been because Xiuya swept around with the blood cavalry that day, and the various clans that far outnumbered the blood cavalry, but they were driven into the hinterland of the holy mountain for refuge.
It was only today that the soldiers of the other clans obeyed the dispatch and barely looked like an army. However, when looking at the guards who were almost lined up in a black line on the horizon from a distance, the warriors of ordinary clans couldn't help but show expressions of panic and fear. Only the 30,000 elites were unmoved, but everyone looked ready to go.
The wind came from the direction of the Thorn Jungle, and there was a hint of fishy smell wafting in the air. At the same time, at the end of the horizon, the black front moved. Tens of thousands of guards rolled in, and as they ran, the ground shook slightly.
Ba Jin stood at the head of the wall, stared into the distance, and said lightly: "It's begun, everyone, this battle is a matter of survival. No matter what you have done before, today you must let go and join forces to defend against the enemy!"
Lan jumped out of the dark castle, dragged the dragon's teeth in his hand and said loudly, "You just give the order, General!"
