The solidified and incompletely solidified magma turned the entire dark black land into red. The solidification is not only magma, but also dried blood, corpses that have not been melted by high temperature, and metal fragments...
It reveals days of fierce fighting that has been raging across the land.
The defense line of the coalition forces is shrinking back step by step, and they have already withdrawn from the territory of the blood claws.
There are many countries in the human world, disputes are far more frequent than those in the demon world, and they are no strangers to war; while the demons, whose average life expectancy is much higher than that of humans, are more aggressive by nature, and the war in the demon world has never stopped. These are ordinary people. The strength of the strong is directly proportional to their lifespan, and the battlefield they can experience is even longer.
However, neither the demon race nor the ground race, no matter whether they are ordinary or strong, have never experienced such a cruel and tragic war before them.
There is no interest, no conquest, no occupation... only one purpose, destruction.
Although the coalition forces shrunk their lines of defense, they did not collapse and continued to fight tenaciously with the abyssal army. The demons in particular have shown great strength and rich combat experience, and many targeted strategies and tactics can always eliminate a large number of abyssal monsters at a very small cost. However, no matter how ingenious the tactics, no matter how rich the experience is, facing endless monsters, they cannot change the situation of the battle.
The ground in front of Xinghuang Fortress has been severely deformed, and there are huge potholes caused by destruction everywhere, and the ground is full of magma formed by the death of abyssal monsters. Behind the Xinghuang Fortress, as long as you climb over two mountains, you will be the capital of the Blood Fiend Emperor, inhabited by a large number of demons and a considerable number of migratory humans. After the abyssal army gushed out from the gate of the two worlds, it spread over a wide area, and it was not just the Star Fortress. There was another direction that was also the main attack point of the monsters, and that was the Black Iron Mountains leading to the Shadow Empire.
Catherine is currently presiding over the Pentagram Eye in the Heavenly Slaying Formation. Shea had already led an army from the Dark Moon Territory Leia Town to the Shadow Empire to preside over it. After learning about the movement of the abyss, she personally led the Fallen Angel Empire and The combined army of the Shadow Empire crossed the Black Iron Mountains from the blood thorn flower territory, and hoarded heavily in the Moluo Fortress in front of the Black Iron Mountains, preparing to face the invasion of the abyss army.
The areas where these two fortresses are located are under tremendous pressure. Before that, a large number of refugees from the demon race and migrating humans fled to the Blood Fiend Emperor Capital. Once the Xinghuang Fortress is breached, the people of the Blood Fiend Emperor Capital must have no time to evacuate, and there is no danger. It can be defended, so the soldiers are desperately defending.
The Xinghuang Fortress is a huge fortress temporarily built on the basis of the Xinghuang Capital. It should also be the most powerful fortress in the entire Demon Realm. It gathers all the new weapons of the Demon Realm and a huge army of alchemy civilization.
However, until now, the Xinghuang Fortress was gradually unable to support it.
In the White Sea, the Xinghuang once displayed a strong lethality, killing the Abyss Fleet to pieces, but there is the White Sea. With the advantage of the geographical advantage, the Xinghuang can easily destroy it in the air and is restrained by the terrain. enemy. And here is land, where the continuous characteristics of the abyssal army can be brought into full play, and the Xinghuang was severely damaged in the big explosion last time, and it has not been completely repaired until now. Although the firepower is still strong, it is facing more and more The more monsters in the abyss, the more powerless they seemed.
Two-thirds of the combatable troops of the Alchemy Civilization have been lost. Except for the long-range Titans and the auxiliary lamp spirits, the Constructed Battle Partners, Crystal Behemoths, and Crystal Beasts have all suffered heavy losses. Although the Star City can temporarily Manufacture some soldiers, but this speed is far behind the level of consumption. The quickest to manufacture is the construction battle partner that has prepared a large number of "accessories", but even if it is built, it must be controlled by a skilled pilot. The talent of the spirits of the alchemy civilization is repair. After all, only For this reason, all trainee pilots of the Blood Fiend Empire were summoned to join the battle.
The bodies of the coalition soldiers were covered with solidified blood and sweat, and their eyes looked mechanical and numb. Although there was a short break in turn, and everyone distributed medicine and food, they maintained such a super-high-intensity life-and-death battle for several consecutive days and nights. It was an iron man, and it was difficult to support. Many soldiers who took turns to rest even fell asleep standing up, but once they heard the sound of charging, they instinctively clenched their weapons and woke up.
Even alchemy creatures are exhausted, the current situation of the defenders is very bad, the battalion is full of wounded soldiers, even the soldiers who still have the strength to fight are almost at their limit, and the remaining combat power of the alchemy army is also not much, Xing Huang The gunship's firepower was also greatly weakened due to cooling or overuse damage, and this repeatedly tense bowstring was on the verge of breaking.
The truly tireless ones were the monsters from the abyss. They didn't give the defenders much time to rest. After the previous wave of attack was destroyed, a new wave of attack soon started again.
On the horizon in the distance, desperate blood appeared again.
"If I can survive this battle, can I have the honor to invite you to have a candlelight dinner?" The one who spoke was a handsome elf, Xining of the Yinyue Xiandu Magic Shooter Legion, a well-known sharpshooter of the coalition army, and the reason for his words The target was a heroic purple-haired beauty, who was the head of the Flying Cloud Legion of the Fallen Angel Empire, Rometty of the Fallen Angel Royal Family.
Some elves and humans who are familiar with Xining are surprised. Xining is the dream lover of many female elves in Yinyuexian. Unexpectedly, he would take the initiative to say such words to a woman, and she was a woman from the Demon Race!
In fact, in these days of fighting side by side, Xining has gradually fallen in love with this heroic female warrior whose marksmanship and archery skills are not inferior to her own. Now, before what may be the last battle of her life, the introverted elf finally expresses her love. Expressed his love.
In those eyes, all barriers such as race and camp disappeared, leaving only the purest emotions.
If it was in the past, the proud elves would definitely not be able to recognize this kind of love with foreigners. Even the elf king Span and the fairy dragon Meria were only recognized after the disaster of the fallen elves. But at this moment, the soldiers including the elves all booed: "Promise him! Promise him!"
Rometty looked at Xining, his eyes flashed with splendor, but he pouted angrily in the direction of the abyssal army: "If you can beat me this time."
Xining's spirit lifted: "Okay!"
The nearby soldiers laughed loudly, and their morale was boosted a bit. At this time, the horn of orders came from their ears. Xining and Rometty's expressions changed, and they shouted in unison: "The First Shooter Corps is ready!"
Due to the heavy casualties of the various legions in the previous battles, the First Archer Legion is a reorganized long-range legion, including elves, humans, and demons. Xining and Rometty are both deputy heads.
The shooters immediately stood by the parapet neatly, and the rest of the soldiers also quickly made preparations for battle. At this moment, there was no distinction between demons, humans, or other races, and they had to hand over their backs to each other's life and death partners to face the battle together. With the raging torrent of destruction.
In front of the Xinghuang Fortress, all kinds of lights shone again, and no one could be sure whether this was the last hope of shining.
As the battle situation progressed, urgent reports were sent to the headquarters of the fortress one by one.
"The front can't stand it anymore! The enemy has already broken through the city wall!" Kozena, the head of the guard, hurried into the headquarters.
The supreme commander sitting in the headquarters is Queen Tiffany of the Blood Fiend Empire, followed by Emperor Rex and Sandro.
The three of them were originally commanding the battle in front of the city, but because Rex and Tiffany were injured successively in the battle a few days ago, especially Tiffany was seriously injured, so they stayed at the headquarters to sit in command. Breaking, the two were startled at the same time, Tiffany quickly asked: "Kozena, how much backup do we have?"
"Those who can fight have already gone up, including the last batch of students from Imperial College..." The head of the female guard smiled wryly, "Even the reserve troops of the ancient legion have run out, and only the remaining Titans and the Lantern Legion are still there. I'm fighting, but I can't last long, Your Majesty, please evacuate immediately!"
Tiffany shook her head: "Catherine fought to the death with the abyss lord at Serkred Mountain, Shia met another abyss army at the Black Iron Mountains, and behind me is the imperial capital, and there is no danger to defend, especially the imperial capital , there are still countless people who have no time to evacuate, the Star Fortress is the greatest hope of the empire and the demon world, how can I retreat? There is only a fight to the death."
"Hmph, stupid." A voice sounded from the command department.
Tiffany frowned: "It's you."
This person is the former emperor of the Blood Fiend Empire, Lei Chan.
Also her father.
"You should have a special way to contact that guy. At this point, what are you waiting for?" Lei Chan's "that guy" is Chen Rui. Indeed, as a member of the Star God Temple, Tiffany can share Sending out the power of the soul to convey the emergency situation here to Chen Rui, just like Ben Xi was in an emergency in the calamity country back then.
Tiffany's tone seemed unusually indifferent: "He has more important things to do now, so he can't be distracted."
Chen Rui assisted Lola in the elemental world to practice the power of sealing the world. He must be aware of the current situation, the abyss will definitely break into the gate of the two worlds, and he will definitely not waste time. The reason why he hasn't returned yet is that Lola's power has not been fully successful. Although many people can summon him through the Star God Temple, no one has done so at this time.
Lei Chan sneered, "Is it more important than your life?"
"I trust him." Tiffany replied coldly, "These two words are exactly what you lack."
Back then, there were many succession candidates for the Blood Fiend Empire, including the three best princes, but in the end they were exhausted due to struggle and suspicion. From this point of view, Lei Chan did not trust anyone except himself, including his own son. .
Lei Chan showed disdain: "As an emperor, you shouldn't trust a person absolutely."
"I don't have time to argue with you about such silly questions. This is the High Command of the Allied Forces. You are just an abdicate who has lost power and has no right to dictate! You are not even qualified to enter this fortress! Come on! Trespassers drive out of the fortress!"
Hearing "drive out of the fortress", Lei Chan's eyes flashed an unknown light, and with a wave of his hand, Tiffany's body shook, feeling imprisoned by some force, unexpectedly unable to move, and unable to describe it.
If it was a normal day, Tiffany would never be restrained so easily, even if it was a sneak attack, but now that she is seriously injured, she is unable to resist.
"I am indeed an abdicated emperor, but I have not lost my authority." Lei Chan smiled lightly, and said to Kozena: "Do you know what to do?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Kezena gave Lei Chan a deep salute, hugged Tiffany, and walked out. She understood Lei Chan's meaning. The Blood Fiend Emperor needs to be in charge here, but it doesn't have to be Tiffany. .
As long as Tiffany is around, the Blood Fiend Empire will still be around.
"You should have said just now that you are not only an abdicated emperor, but also a father." Emperor Rex, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
"Who are you?" Lei Chan frowned.
"Rex. Roland, an emperor who lost his empire, is also the father of 'that guy' you said," Rex smiled. "It seems that none of us are popular fathers."
Lei Chan stared at Rex for a moment without making a sound.
"They will go farther than us." Rex's gaze became farther, as if he saw the distant sky through the wall.
Lei Chan frowned at these words, and took a deep look at Rex.
"Lei Chan. Mammon. I didn't expect to know a human being like you in the end."
