Volume 1 Chapter 40
As the military order was handed down, the army began to collect the corpses of their comrades and turned around and returned to the city.
On the way back, the demon clan chased after him, and pursued with his tail. The monks stopped and broke off to cover the evacuation of the soldiers.
On the battlefield above the heavens, a group of Terran monks fought and retreated. Then after the demons discovered their intentions, they became more fierce one by one, and would rather eat the attacks of the spells and spells than desperately drag them back. For a while, the battle situation was more stalemate than before.
"The demon clan is biting too tightly, Lao Dao should go and answer it, otherwise it will be difficult for them to get out for a while. ”
Yun Zhongzi, who had been paying attention to the situation in the sky, spoke.
The Sword Saint glanced at this extremely senior Sumeru Mountain Supreme Patriarch, and hesitated slightly.
"Once the seniors make a move, I'm afraid that a few people will join the battle in the dark day. At that time, once a few of us make a move, I'm afraid the situation will be difficult to control. ”
Yun Zhongzi said with a smile: "As long as you two don't move here, presumably the demon clan won't make a move easily." Sword Saint rest assured, Lao Dao still has some ability to save his life, even if the speed of the Dapeng King is the first in the world, but if Lao Dao wants to leave, it will be difficult for him to keep me. ”
"Seniors should be careful. ”
Feng Xing knew Yun Zhongzi's ability, and he no longer dissuaded him at the moment.
Yun Zhongzi flew away and went straight to the high heaven battle circle.
In the clouds, a group of Earth Immortal Realm monks were being bitten by the big demon, and they couldn't retreat. Once one or two people evacuate alone, there will be a hole in their own defense line, and the opponent's big demon will attack fiercely, just afraid that someone will be difficult to resist.
In the midst of the hard battle, a rainbow light swept by, and it was Yun Zhongzi who rushed into the battle line. Yun Zhongzi's big sleeves waved, shaking back the big demons with majestic spiritual power, and then wielding a soft force to push his own earth immortals out of the battle circle. When everyone saw that Yun Zhongzi was coming to cover, they all flew towards the city. After the big demons stabilized their figures, they surrounded the cloud neutrons in the center. But intimidated by the other party's realm of heaven and man, no one dared to take the lead for a while.
Yun Zhongzi was in prison but didn't care, and at this time all his attention was on the body of the Golden-winged Roc King on the mountain peak in the distance. It's just that he joined the battle group by himself, and the Demon King didn't seem to care, and there was no sign of interfering, so he let himself rescue more than a dozen Earth Immortal Monks who were entangled in death.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of making a move on himself, Yun Zhongzi was too lazy to stay, and as for this group of great demons in the Earth Immortal Realm, he had no intention of killing them. After all, he covered his own retreat and the other party chose to watch from the sidelines, but if he really killed these big demons, the two heavenly and demon kings probably would not sit idly by. When the time comes, the Martial God Sword Saint will inevitably come to the rescue, and today's first handover battle may be difficult to do well. At that moment, a secret technique was directly cast, and the figure disappeared in place.
In a flash of white light, cloud neutrons appeared at the head of the city.
"King Peng, will you just let that old guy come and go freely?"
On the top of the mountain peak, the Sky Swallowing Pig King looked at the dark sun in confusion and asked.
Dark Sun's gaze has been on the head of the Demon City, and when he heard the pig king behind him, he just said lightly: "It's okay, I didn't plan to make a contribution to today's battle." It is not so easy for such high-ranking monks to kill, just let them go back to the city. It's not time for us to make a move. Let the cubs below all withdraw, today's goal has been achieved. ”
With the order of the Demon King, the dense demons on the ground also began to evacuate. When each demon clan retreated, they did not forget to drag and take away the corpses of the human race that were still intact on the ground.
These corpses are the best trophies of the demon clan.
Trapped in this wild and red land for more than 10,000 years, many demon clans have never tasted human flesh and blood since they were born. On weekdays, I only heard that there are powerful races that will prey on those monks who come in to practice or those who risk their lives to go into the mountains to collect elixir. Today, the tens of thousands of human races killed on this battlefield are enough for the demons to hold a gluttonous feast. Of course, the corpses of those monks must be a tribute to those higher races, after all, the flesh and blood of the human monks containing spiritual energy is the best ingredient for the demon race, and it has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing qi and blood.
Seeing the group of demon clans retreating to the 100,000 mountains in a carnival, Wang Qian's face was gloomy and about to drip water. After following Feng Xing in this demon city for more than ten years, what will happen to the corpses of those clansmen who were taken away. The steel teeth were clenched, and the military order almost popped out from between the teeth: "Order the three armies, count the battle damage, and bury the bodies of the dead in the battle properly." In addition, night guards were arranged, and scout troops were also scattered. The army rested well and waited for the day. ”
A monk beside him took the order, turned around and flew down the tower.
At dusk, in the council hall at the head of the city, a group of generals and top monks sat around.
"In today's battle, the army lost more than 24,780 people. More than 32,000 were slightly wounded, and more than 6,000 were seriously wounded and could no longer fight. Five hundred and fourteen monks were killed in the battle and ninety-eight were seriously wounded. There was no leakage to the Yuanying realm, and three hundred and five people were killed in the battle, and seventy-six were seriously wounded. After counting the corpses of the demon clan, the total number of demon clans killed was 11,928. ”
A Terran monk who served as a staff officer with the army held the paper in his hand to count the battle damage, and read aloud. Everyone in the audience listened to this inventory of battle damage, and their faces were slightly gloomy.
"Nearly twice as much battle damage. And in today's battle, almost no high-level demon clan was killed. Looking at the strategy of the demon clan today, it seems that it is not intended to be overwhelmed by the whole army and make a final decision, but to exchange lives with us. The population of the eight states of my human race is far better than that of the demon race, but I don't understand what the purpose of the demon race's strategy is. However, according to this situation, with the current combat strength of our side, it will not be able to hold a few rounds. ”
As the main general in the city, Wang Jian also expressed his judgment in a deep voice.
Martial God Feng Xing, who has been silent since the beginning of the war, suddenly spoke: "It's really strange, it stands to reason that the demon clan should attack with all its might while the support of the remaining seven states has not arrived, but in today's battle, a few people in the dark sun have never made a move." In addition, those demon kings didn't seem to do their best, just dragging our Earth Immortal Cultivators. What worries me the most is the Demon World Floating Massacre. Until now, I don't know what the effect of this demon clan holy weapon is. ”
What the general said is exactly what we have doubts in our hearts. However, the demon clan did not attack in a big way, and for us and others, it was good news after all, after all, the longer the time dragged on, the more the forces from the states would fall. With the current strength in the Demon City, if we really carry out a desperate fight, our situation is actually very unfavorable. ”
Wang Jian got up from his seat, stood on the edge of the sand table, and said to the people below.
There was no one in the audience for a while, and they all wondered what the demon clan was doing.
"In short, the soldiers will come to block, and the water will come to the earth. The demon clan will definitely attack again in the next few days, and everyone will need to be cautious at that time. When reinforcements from all states arrive, I can take the initiative to launch an offensive against the demon clan. Everyone went back to rest, recuperate, and strive to kill more barbarians tomorrow to comfort the souls of those soldiers who died in the sky. ”
Seeing that Feng Xing and the others were not speaking, Wang Jian made a statement to let everyone leave.
