Volume 1 The Winter of Halmar Chapter 187 The Enslaver
Needham's eyes were calm, and he turned to the two hundred ranged troops behind him and shouted,
"Ranged troops, prepare!"
The archers raised their longbows, the musketeers raised their muskets, and for a moment there was silence in the air, and the whole team froze in place, waiting for the order to be given.
"Shoot!"
The arrows streaked across the sky, condensed into a wave of arrows that were not too dense, and fell into the demon front in unison!
During this period, a large amount of gunpowder smoke filled the interior of the human front, and a sound of breaking through the air passed through the crowd, and at a speed faster than the rain of arrows, it descended on the demon group first!
"Bang bang!"
"Poof!"
The gunpowder exploded from the demon array, and the demons in the front let out a terrible scream, and the flesh and blood of their bodies were blurred immediately, and many of the demon servants who were hit by the key points fell to the ground without saying a word, killing them on the spot.
Silas, who was busy drawing something, saw that his front was in chaos, and did not care about the rain of arrows that was about to fall, and his hands kept moving, and even faster.
A tall Corris soldier who specialized in flesh appeared silently in front of Silas, fending off the arrows that fell on him for him, and only used his hands to protect his vital parts.
Andu looked at the chaotic demon horde, Silas's body was obscured, and his heart was agitated.
However, this anxiety has not been completely extinguished, and the second round of long-range attacks has not yet been launched, and black air currents have appeared in the demon front out of thin air.
Andu looked intently, and the heaviness in his eyes became a little thicker.
He never imagined that the once seemingly inconspicuous Mr. Gatekeeper would become today's biggest enemy.
The black air flow quickly drifted to the corpses of the dead demons, and the corpses of the large number of demon servants who had died in the previous battle, as well as several demon soldiers, twitched strangely!
In the dark red demon corpse, wisps of dark yellow demon blood quickly evaporated and turned into the nourishment of the black air current, blending into it.
And after being replenished by a large amount of dead demon blood, the black air flow had turned into a pitch-black gate, standing in the center of the demon front.
"Commander, prepare the front. ”
Andu suddenly spoke again: "On the demon's side, it's about to counterattack." ”
Although Needham doesn't know much about it, he is extremely efficient in doing things, and with his trust in Andu, he immediately ordered to prepare for defense!
Seeing that the pitch-black Demon Gate was rapidly taking shape, and the stitching monster he controlled was about to be annihilated, Andu turned to look at Gao Fodri, who had been standing behind him without saying a word.
"When the battle begins, don't do it yet. ”
Andu approached the barbarian and whispered, "When I make a move, look for an opportunity to attack the human who is surrounded in the center." ”
Golfodry nodded, and continued to fall into silence, his hand clenching silently.
However, after more than ten seconds, the rapidly forming demon gate was completely stabilized, and Silas, who had been protected by the demon soldiers, also appeared in Andu's eyes again.
The drawing had stopped, and a dark and obscure rune appeared at Silas's feet, and the staff in his right hand was light on the ground, and the rune array actually rose directly from the ground, with a trace of illusory light, floating in the direction of the demon's door.
Andu was in the middle of the battle, witnessing this scene but could only wait silently.
The best opportunity was actually when Silas drew the rune array, but the environment simply didn't allow it, and all he could do at this time was to be careful of the opponent's upcoming counterattack!
Devil's Gate!
The rune array floated above the Demon Gate, and dark purple light slowly sprinkled down like rain, and in the pitch-black Demon Gate, which had been standing quietly, a low roar suddenly came out!
At the same time, Andu suddenly felt a burst of relaxation, and looked sideways to see that the stitching monster he controlled had finally turned into a piece of minced flesh under the siege of many demons......
The low roar coming from the Demon Gate made the warriors of the human front change color for a while, and then the pitch-black surface of the gate suddenly rippled, and a thick little leg with a diameter of nearly half a meter stepped out of it!
Before Andu could speak, Barney, the "big mouth" from the church, was already exclaiming!
"It's the Devil's Sacrifice Summoning Gate!"
As if to confirm his words, the corpses of those demons whose blood had been evaporated after death suddenly erupted into bursts of explosions!
The many corpses that had long been out of breath turned into bursts of red powder with the explosion, and dissipated into the air with the cold wind that drifted by!
And one after another, the dark red air flow, following the black air flow and the illusory rune array, drifted towards the Demon Gate again!
In just a few breaths, the pitch-black and heavy gate absorbed this large amount of red air flow one by one, and the black and purple calves that poked out moved again!
The calf took a step forward from the gate, and immediately after, another thick calf stepped out of it, revealing the lower body of the summoned demon!
The lower body alone is nearly two meters tall!
The summoned demon quickly exposed his lower abdomen, chest, and head, and Andu finally saw the appearance of the summoned demon this time.
About four meters tall, comparable to the burly figure of the stitching monster, but without the bloated of the stitching monster, the complexion is black and purple, and he holds a three-edged steel fork!
This time, Barney "Big Mouth" was silent, and the monsters that appeared were beyond his knowledge......
But for Andu, this kind of demon is not unfamiliar, among the demons, this commander-like existence often appears with the demon army.
"Enslaver!"
The Enslaver is a third-order demon class, and it is also an indispensable existence in the demon army, and its strength is far less than that of the same level of Edwardser-level demon envoys, but it is more intelligent, and in the demon race, it acts as a low-level demon commander.
Looking at the remaining demon "legion" of one hundred and seventy-eight, Andu was even more eager to summon the Demon Envoy of Edwardser!
Even if the strength of a single body is stronger, it will not be able to make any waves under a large-scale indiscriminate attack, but the enslaver is different.
As soon as the thought in Andu's heart flashed, he saw the demon soldiers in the demon array lined up one by one, showing a visual sense similar to that of a battle array!
"These demons...... Is it in formation?"
Needham wondered.
Most of the human formations also had similar ridiculous thoughts, and it had been proved in the battle just now that there was no such thing as a battle formation among the demons.
"Ready, they're lined up. ”
Andu sighed softly and said helplessly to Needham beside him.
Needham exclaimed, "They're really lined up!?"
Others don't understand, how can Andu not know what the appearance of the enslavers means!
That's the real one, the Demon Commanders, and they appeared to unite the front and make the Demon Legion even more combative!
Andu briefly explained the role of the Slaver to Needham, and Andu looked at the Demon Front with increasing nervousness.
Although many fighters expressed skepticism, Needham still believed him!
The human front is becoming more and more cautious, waiting for the demons to fight back!
With the Enslavers, the demons were noticeably more disciplined, but a minute later they began to launch a new charge!
This time, the demons were no longer charging irregularly, they were more strategic, with a stormtrooping team of thirty demon servants, and under the control of the enslavers, a total of three teams were formed!
They were divided into batches, and when the first batch rushed out fifty meters, the second batch began to charge!
When Needham saw this scene, he was shocked, but he also trusted Andu's judgment more and more.
Since the demons were no longer charging in a swarm, the method of dense ranged coverage was greatly reduced, and Needham only ordered the musketeers to launch ranged attacks.
The ammunition that each archer and musketeer could carry was limited, and the two sides had already gone through a series of collisions long before Andu arrived, and the ammunition became more and more scarce at this time.
Nearly half of the first batch of demons fell when gunshots rang out, and the rest were wounded!
Normally, an ordinary human musketeer does not have any ability to resist in the face of a first-order demon servant, but once the number is formed, a team of 100 musketeers can annihilate a team of 30 people with almost zero damage!
The remaining dozen or so demon servants rushed into the dense battle shield of the human front and the steel spear forest without hesitation, and in an instant, the dark yellow demon blood stained the dust on the ground.
Andu saw that the second batch of demon charge teams was already only thirty meters away from the human front, and he couldn't help but start to feel a little anxious.
Although the front withstood the first wave of charges, those demons were not at all as greedy for life and fear of death as before, even if they were pierced through the head by spears, they would use their bodies to pounce on the human front in front of them, trying to cause some trouble!
Andu looked at all this in front of him with a gloomy expression, these changes were brought about by the enslavers!
The second Storm Troop is coming again!
The human musketeers were just getting their gunpowder on at this time, but the demons had already slammed into the shield wall of the human front!
At this moment, there were loopholes in at least four positions in the human defensive front, and the demons seized the opportunity to break through!
This time, the chaotic situation came to the human front.
Andu sat in the rear, and for a while he couldn't find a suitable solution at all!
The power of one person is so small in front of the legion!
Only when your own strength reaches a certain level can you change this status quo!
"Demigod ......," Andu was silent in his heart.
Although there were only a few demons who rushed into the formation, it still took some time for the human race, but none of this was critical to the human front.
The most important thing is that the third batch of demon charge squads has struck again!!
When the third wave of Demon Charge squads crashed into the human shield wall, the human front finally collapsed......
Andu took a deep breath and looked into the demon front.
In the distance, he saw Silas and the Enslaver.
They have stood at the back of the demonic front at some point......
