Night fell.
The Lanyao Emperor's capital Vatican did not have the tranquility of the night at all, the sky above was brightly lit, and amidst the roar, various dazzling lights shone from time to time.
The battle to the west of the imperial capital has entered a fever pitch, and the sky and the ground are desperately fighting fiercely.
The ground in front of the city wall was riddled with holes, and high-temperature blood red permeated many places. These magma-like blood reds were formed by the ablation of the corpses of monsters from the abyss.
There are still many corpses that have not had time to melt, piled up like a mountain, and the arrows and bullets from the top of the city are pouring down like rain, constantly stopping the approaching gap demons and storm demons. Even so, the torrent of the abyss is still advancing , there are many monsters close to the city wall that have begun to climb.
The defenders gradually suffered casualties, most of which were injured by the bone spurs fired by the storm demon during the attack. There are six bone spurs fired by the storm demon. Although they can only fire six times at most, due to the amazing number of individuals, the intensive attack Now, even the large shield warriors of the dwarves cannot cover everything.
There are more and more abyssal monsters near the city wall. From a distance, the blood-red ocean is constantly beating against the city wall, and the "waves" are layer upon layer, quickly approaching the city.
Sandro didn't panic, and gave an order to the first legion of magicians. The elf magicians walked up to the top of the city neatly, ignoring the monsters that were close at hand, and didn't dodge the bone spurs flying all over the sky, and began to quickly cast the long-awaited attack. magic.
The dwarf warrior next to an elf magician waved his shield half a beat slower. The elf was pierced through his thin body by the flying bone spurs and fell to the ground. The group was overwhelmed, but the rest of the elves were unafraid and cast the magic that Sandro ordered.
Gravity!
All of a sudden, the speed of all the monsters under the city, including the large area in front of it, slowed down, and the monsters that had been climbing the city wall fell down, but this was not the real purpose of the gravity technique.
The sound of machine guns from the rear rang out one after another, and the catapults that had already adjusted their angles and distances were launched in unison, and at the same time, the magic crystal cannons that had been out for a long time were also fired.
The boulder thrown by the catapult was not ignited as before, but was bound with a special magic bomb, which was produced by the city of mages, and some of the bombs were crafted from elves. There are no fuses or complicated magic trigger switches, but rather some sort of firing pin that, on violent impact, can cause a powerful explosion. When Chen Rui was traveling in Yagoda, he was amazed when he saw this kind of explosive bomb. It was very similar to the aerial bomb he knew in his previous life.
Attracted by gravity, the explosive bombs thrown by the catapult accurately landed in the abyssal army ahead, boom boom boom boom boom boom... The entire ground of the imperial capital felt violent trembling.
The superimposed power of the continuous explosion of the bombs is far greater than that of a single one, and there are large blanks in the monsters that were originally dense like a tide. The magic crystal cannon aimed at the monsters at close range under the city wall. The white light shone, illuminating the night sky like daytime, and the blood-red torrents of the abyss disappeared one after another.
At this time, bows and arrows or magic rifles will also be affected by double gravity. The defenders on the city wall stopped attacking and hid in bunkers such as parapets. The dwarf warriors formed a shield to protect the shooters from the explosion. affected.
The effect of this tactic is quite obvious. The original endless blood red in front of the city wall has turned into a large vacuum. The losses of the abyss monsters this time are quite huge, but Sandro's face is not relaxed.
The defenders of the imperial capital have been sticking to the city wall. With the cooperation of various tactics, they have exchanged huge casualties for the enemy at a very small price. If it is an ordinary battle, it will undoubtedly be a brilliant victory. However, this is no ordinary battle, nor are they facing ordinary enemies now, but monsters that are almost endless and fearless.
Although there are many victories, the overall number of the abyss army has not decreased significantly, and after such a fierce battle, the physical strength and energy of one's own side are declining rapidly, especially the magic power of the magicians, even if Sandro deliberately arranged Taking turns to rest can't keep up with the speed of consumption.
If we continue to fight like this for a long time, I'm afraid...
The effect of the gravity technique is about to come, Sandro took a deep breath, without thinking any more, he swung his long sword, and ordered: "Readjust the angle of the catapult, the second legion of magicians, prepare for magic! Templar, clear the air approaching Enemy of the Imperial Capital!"
In the sky, the number of people participating in the battle is much smaller than that on the ground, but the momentum is far above the ground.
The most conspicuous thing is the criss-crossing flames, these flames stay in the air, like ropes, lingering for a long time. These "ropes" left by the mutated elite flame witch have ruined many Griffin Knights.
The strength of ordinary flame witches is generally at the level of the devil emperor, and a small number of mutants can reach the level of devil emperors. This flame witch is an elite in mutation and has entered the nationalization. She has a special talent for fire. Everywhere they passed, they would leave trails like a wall of fire. Before they could change their direction, many griffins directly hit the wall of fire, turning into a firebird, and falling down with the knight behind them.
Most of the Griffon Knights had been lost, but they managed to attract most of the enemy's air power to high altitudes, preventing friendly forces on the ground from being affected.
The mutated elite Flame Witch who was killing Griffin Knights suddenly turned around, and her long whip flew to the rear, entangled with a rapier that was about to stab. The rapier was held in the hand of a male elf. Super strong Pross.
The Flame Witch shouted loudly, and the flames of the long whip burst into flames. The rapier in Pross' hand turned red under the high temperature. Pross snorted, still holding the long sword tightly in his hand. His strength was originally comparable to that of the Flame Witch, but because he was good at the power of the fire element, his damage to the Flame Witch was greatly reduced, and he was firmly suppressed. If it weren't for the griffin knights' continuous interference with the flame witch with their spears, Pross would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die.
Looking at Pross who was struggling to support, the Flame Witch showed a sinister smile. She was shocked suddenly, the smile froze on her face, and her whole body began to freeze rapidly.
Pross has quite a lot of fighting experience. With a flicker of his figure, he intercepted the ice in mid-air, gathered all the power of the kingdom in his hand, and punched it, and the body of the flame witch who was frozen into ice was instantly torn apart.
"Kaelsa, thank you. If you had come later, my soul would have gone to see the Moonlight Goddess." Pross looked at the old friend who appeared in front of him, and said with emotion. Kaelsa's strength is the pinnacle of the country. He was two small realms taller, but judging from the wounds on Keelsa's body, the battle he had experienced was even more dangerous.
"Pay attention to the Templar and the Griffin Knight," Keelsa panted, "I'll go to Lord Durza and see if I can help."
Duersha is the only remaining demigod elder of the elves and one of the masters of the mage Tallinn. This time, she came to Vestian to protect Princess Feili. Queen Liv is Duersa's niece and also her disciple. The destruction of Yinyue Xiandu made Duersa inexplicably angry. If it wasn't for Sandro and Feili's dissuasion, she would have already entered the abyss army alone.
There is no doubt about the power of the demigod. The reason why Sandro kept Dursa was just in case, and he didn't want her to waste her power prematurely. In fact, this consideration was correct.
After annihilating the vanguard of the abyss army, two terrifying elite abyss lords appeared, both of whom had reached the level of demigods. If Duersa hadn't stopped them, the city walls would have been broken.
Duersha's original intention was to draw the battlefield of demigod-level contests into the abyssal army, so that the army could be destroyed by the aftermath of the battle. Unlike ordinary practitioners, abyss lords have no kingdom or domain, but their power is more pure. The fighting power of these two elite abyss lords is far superior to that of ordinary demigods. Together, Duersha is actually at a disadvantage, and The pressure from the abyssal army made even Duersha secretly startled. If she rushed into the opponent's army rashly, she might be swallowed by endless waves. Similarly, this battlefield cannot be drawn to the imperial capital, so Dursa gave full play to the magician's kite-flying tactics, leading the two abyss lords into the air, expanding the kingdom, and trapping the two enemies in the midst of the battle. Kyle After Sa joined, Duersha's pressure finally eased a little, and the stalemate was basically maintained.
The fierce fighting continued until dawn.
Many cracks appeared on the blood-stained city wall, and the ground below the city was covered with steaming magma.
The battle that night was almost always maintained at the highest intensity, and he couldn't remember how many abyss creatures were killed and how many times the enemy's attacks were defeated.
Even with the advantage of location and the combination of various tactics, one-third of the defenders were still killed. It can be seen that the battle was fierce, and the body and spirit of the living people were already in a state of extreme fatigue. The commander's order was supported with the last breath of bravery.
It was like a taut bow that might break at any moment.
The battle in the sky is also continuing, but the number of people on the side of the Lanyao Empire is getting smaller and smaller.
The frightening thing is that the abyssal army is still not at all tired, and the number still seems to be continuous, which makes the defenders feel desperate.
"Her Majesty Lanbisi is here!"
I saw Empress Lanbisi in full body clothes, leading the palace guards, appearing in front of everyone.
"I will fight side by side with you, and live and die together!"
Lan Bisi's simple words lifted the morale that had been low once again. Her Majesty the Queen did not flee like those nobles, but stayed and fought to the death!
"Fight to the death! Fight to the death!" The soldiers raised their weapons one after another.
Sandro and other generals know that this is just drinking poison to quench their thirst. Their own strength has almost bottomed out, and the abyssal army is still unfathomable.
What's even more frightening is that a considerable part of Abyss's troops have already bypassed the west gate of the imperial capital, turned over the mountains and rivers that were originally natural barriers, and began to attack the remaining three gates with weak troops. It can be seen from this that the abyssal creatures not only possess strong combat effectiveness and fierceness without fear of death, but also possess considerable wisdom.
Lan Bisi glanced at Princess Feili. The elf princess's charming face was covered with blood. She had companions and her own, but compared with the previous arrogance, she was a little more mature and stable. Princess Feili knew what Lanbisi wanted to say, looked at her companions who were fighting bloody battles, and shook her head gently. Lanbisi took a deep breath and nodded.
A large number of flame witches flew in the sky, and the torrent of monsters on the ground swept over again. A new wave of attack began, and the momentum was stronger than before.
"It is likely to be the final battle." Many people said in their hearts, clenching their weapons.
