The border of the Dark Moon Territory.
Moonlight Fortress.
The coalition forces of the imperial capital are watching this fortress that existed in the era of Emperor Baiye from a distance. What is the concept of a million troops? Standing on the fortress and looking away, all you can see are black and dense phalanxes, all over the mountains and plains, with almost no end.
Even if the defenders of the Moonlight Fortress are well-trained and their numbers have greatly increased, facing an enemy army dozens of times larger than their own, they can't help but feel their scalps explode.
If the enemy is allowed to crush them with all their strength, I am afraid that there will be no scum left in the Dark Moon Army.
The enemy hasn't attacked yet, but the heart of almost every Dark Moon defender is heavy, with sweaty palms, like a bow, which is getting tighter and tighter under tremendous pressure, and is in danger of collapsing at any time.
Of course, there are some special cases, such as... a certain young lady with small breasts in black standing on the highest observation deck.
"A lot of money!"
The girl looked at the endless enemies, thinking about the price that the employer had promised to destroy the enemies, as if she saw countless black crystal coins all over the place, her eyes glowed green.
"If I fly over and fire a few black dragon cannons at the crowd, will I be able to make a lot of money?"
"No, Olypheus, this kind of battlefield is no small matter. Never underestimate the power of a real elite army." It was Athena, the commander-in-chief who spoke this time, "If you really want to do this, then even if you earn A little money, but no life to enjoy."
"There is such a thing?" Oliver was taken aback, "I can't even deal with these ordinary people?"
"Not exactly." A stern voice rang out. It was Loki. He was once Bai Luo's most effective subordinate, and was also the deputy commander of the Shadow Empire's Jergal Fortress. Loki was very experienced in fortress defense and became This time the defensive staff officer. Athena learned from her father, General George, who was originally a master of defensive warfare, and with Loki's assistance, this time it can be regarded as Dark Moon's strongest command lineup.
"The army in the ordinary territory is fine. The general elite army of the imperial capital has the means to deal with the strong, which is to activate special magic tattoos, consume life potential, and cast some kind of joint special magic formation. This magic formation can contain and delay If there are high-level strong people, the more people there are, the more powerful they will be. Once Lord Olypheus is restrained, and the devil emperor who is as strong as him is sneaking around, then the Lord is likely to be in danger."
Nesta added: "This method is not a panacea, and it also has great limitations. For example, the last time the Phantom Legion was ambushed and the Hades Legion was attacked by fire, it was still the result of being wiped out. Counting it, it is actually the result of annihilation. Imitating the combat methods of the ground world, the combat power of humans in the ground world is generally lower than that of our demons, and the same is true for high-level powerhouses, but their formation is very mysterious, much stronger than the demon world, and sometimes they can even exert several times their offensive and defensive power. Every time we fight with humans, we suffer a lot in this aspect. Later, the Demon Realm also began to study this kind of formation, such as the Specter Charge of my Specter Legion. Although the Demon Realm has a small success in this aspect , but still far below the level of the human world, only some truly elite legions have the ability to compete with the strong."
"The strong ones in the allied forces of the imperial capital are also unwilling to rush forward easily. They are also afraid of being restrained and attacked. For example, if the enemy army comes to a peak devil emperor, even if Pagliu is not here, as long as the devil emperor is captured by the magic circle or us Even if it is Olypheus, she can seriously injure or even kill her opponent." In fact, Athena did not say a word, high-level powerhouses are rare "resources", and they will never be easily used as cannon fodder , the more critical the chess piece, the more critical it is to use it.
Olypheus nodded half-understood, but the people next to her understood that in a war of this scale and scale, it is no longer possible for one or two strong men to easily kill all parties and dominate the entire battle situation.
Of course, the strong are the strong, and it cannot be denied that they can play a huge role and even turn the tide of battle when they are dispatched at the most suitable opportunity.
Since the terrain in front of the Moonlight Fortress was not a complete plain, the imperial capital's army was not in a hurry to attack, and was still adjusting its formation to facilitate a large-scale attack.
More people are an advantage, but on the other hand, it is also more difficult to command, especially the armies of the lords. The former army commander Geraint quickly commanded through the messenger: "The right wing formation should be faster!"
"The former army ordnance brigade, immediately measure the distance and prepare to set up the magic crystal cannon!"
"Goblin Legion, assemble and inspect the catapult!"
"..."
Just when the coalition forces started to set up the magic crystal cannon, several balls of red light suddenly shot out from the walls of the Moonlight Fortress, and then the ground began to tremble violently, boom boom boom!
Some of the catapults and magic crystal cannons in the front row that had not been fully erected were torn apart under the impact of this terrible power. Not only that, there were several huge holes in the phalanx of the front army in an instant, and at least 2,000 people were here. Killed in a round of bombardment.
Dark Moon's Magic Crystal Cannon!
Geraint was taken aback, the range was so far! So powerful! What magic crystal cannon!
The magic crystal cannon brought by the imperial capital is already the most advanced in the current demon world, and it has also been improved by the master craftsman. It is erected in this position, which is to use the advantage of the range to bombard the Moonlight Fortress for a period of time. Unexpected The advantage turned into a disadvantage in front of the Dark Moon Magic Crystal Cannon, where did the Dark Moon get such a terrifying weapon!
Those phalanxes that were hit were stunned by this round of magic crystal cannon bombardment, and immediately became chaotic after reacting.
"The front army retreats one hundred meters immediately! Keep the formation! Don't mess up!" Geraint shouted loudly, and the herald began to beat the drums to command, but many of the front troops were the lord's army, far less well-trained than the imperial army. Especially when the second stage of the magic crystal cannon bombardment of the Moonlight Fortress started, they only knew to retreat desperately. After beheading some of the soldiers in disorder, the front army's phalanx almost collapsed.
In contrast, the direct legion of the imperial capital was much calmer, maintained its formation, and finally retreated to a safe position.
The second burst of the magic crystal cannon raised Dark Moon's suppressed morale again, and excited voices came from Moonlight Fortress.
"You know how powerful Dark Moon is!"
"Look at the stupidity of these grandsons of the imperial capital!"
"The general is right, it's just a bunch of mobs, more people are useless!"
"..."
Seeing the soldiers cheering up again, Athena and the generals felt a little relieved, but they did not dare to relax at all. The magic crystal cannon is not omnipotent, and its range is relatively fixed, especially it cannot attack enemies at close range. This improved magic crystal cannon Although the power is powerful, the cooling time is longer, which means that effective attacks cannot be launched continuously.
In the large tent of the Chinese army on the hillside, Hei Yao saw this scene from a distance, and frowned. The power of Dark Moon's magic crystal cannon was unexpected, but most of these lost troops were the coalition forces of the lords, which was originally planned. Used as cannon fodder.
After finally re-arranging the formation, Geraint knew that his morale was frustrated, and the strategy of using the magic crystal cannon to hit the opponent in the head was obviously unusable, but the whole battle had only just begun.
Gathering his strength, Geraint shouted loudly: "Did you see that small fortress on the opposite side? Did you see those weak walls? The rebels of the Dark Moon shivered behind it! They could only shrink back, Because in the face of our absolute strength, any conspiracy is just a powerless trick. We only need to step on each of us, and we can raze this fortress to the ground! Soldiers of the coalition army, tell me, tell me and watch from behind Our Prince Regent, can you destroy this small fortress?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Encouraged by Geraint, the frustrated spirit of the former army became high again. Qiqi stepped on the ground and struck the shield with their weapons. The sound resounded throughout the battlefield, which was amazing. Hei Yao showed admiration and nodded slightly.
This momentum shocked the defenders of the Moonlight Fortress, but soon, a louder and more...strange sound sounded from the Moonlight Fortress—the barking of the magic dog.
dog barking
The soldiers on both sides were stunned at the same time, what is this
After listening carefully, the barking sound was a bit vague, and it seemed to be mixed with voices. Everyone could hear that it was Geraint's morale-boosting words just now, and the rhythm and tone were so vivid.
"A dog that bites doesn't bark. Warriors of the Dark Moon, are we afraid of these dogs that only bark?" After the dog barked, a man's voice roared out.
"Don't be afraid!" Amidst the roar of laughter, a more orderly voice came from Moonlight Fortress.
There was a smile on Athena's face, this guy Lomon really has a hand, and his gags actually offset the enemy's oppression.
Geraint was angry in his heart, but his face remained stern, and he gave the order to attack: "The first army and the second army form a column to attack! Keep a distance, don't be afraid of the opponent's magic crystal cannon, as long as you rush through the range, the magic The crystal cannon is useless! Going forward is the only way to survive! There is merit! There is a reward! Going back is only a dead end! Attention the law enforcement team, those who retreat after a timid battle will have no mercy!"
The First Army Formation and the Second Army Formation are composed of the lord's army. The lords knew that they were being cannon fodder, but they had no choice but to do so. Geraint ordered that the warrior beheaded, and the Obsidian Regent was watching from behind. He could only grit his teeth and lead the army forward.
The soldiers didn't feel particularly afraid. Regardless of humans or demons, when they merged into a huge team, they were easily infected by the atmosphere, especially when they were encouraged by incitement, they would feel invincible. It's morale.
"Kill!" The two phalanxes broke up into several columns, and rushed towards the Moonlight Fortress amidst the rushing dust.
"It's started." Hei Yao said, with a look of eagerness in his seemingly calm eyes, as long as he wiped out the dark moon in one fell swoop, not only would he be able to solve the biggest trouble, but he would also be able to solve the predicament he faced before.
"It's finally started." In the palace of Darkmoon City, Xia said the same thing, watching the crystal ball quietly.
"No. 1 Magic Crystal Cannon Team, launch!"
"No. 1 Magic Crystal Cannon Team 2, launch!"
Athena's order sounded, several groups of light spheres sprayed out in batches, and fell on the battlefield, forming countless exaggerated pits. Those with arms were too horrible to look at, but the rest of them were still advancing ferociously amidst the sound of killing. Due to the scattered formation, the loss was much lower than before.
The stronger the magic crystal cannon, the longer the cooldown time. Geraint has calculated the cooldown time of the Moonlight Fortress magic crystal cannon from the previous two launches. Now that the opponent's magic crystal cannon has just fired, it must not be usable. Just take this opportunity to dispatch Create a stronger army.
"Magician Legion, bless speed magic! The third army formation and the Magic Armored Legion are dispatched!"
The combat effectiveness of this wave is stronger than that of the first wave, especially the Magic Armored Legion is equipped with siege ladders and large shields, which can effectively resist the enemy's arrows, and the speed magic makes up for the weakness of poor mobility. A weapon of urban warfare.
Just as the Third Army Formation and the Magic Armored Corps were advancing rapidly, several white lights shot out from the female wall of the Moonlight Fortress. If the previous red flame magic crystal cannon was shot in a parabola, then the white one in front of you The beam of light is a straight line, like a destructive giant sword, cutting straight into the enemy's formation, and it is still moving slowly. The enemy troops along the way have no time to resist or dodge, so they are broken down into particles and dissipated. Clear out a few fans.
"Damn it!" Geraint didn't expect that An Yue had another kind of magic crystal cannon, and it was also very terrifying. He originally thought that this battle would definitely be resisted by An Yue, but he didn't expect that this bone was stronger than he imagined. The middle one is even more difficult to chew on. This time, before they even touched the Moonlight Fortress, their side has already lost a lot. In any case, it is already a situation where there is no retreat, and there should be no hesitation.
Although the magic crystal cannon wiped out many soldiers, as Geraint expected, once it crossed the range, it would not be effective, and the coalition forces that had crossed the death line rushed towards the fortress aggressively.
Although the magic traps and magic circles along the way played a role, they were filled in by crowd tactics in an instant.
Loki calmly watched the approaching enemy, secretly calculating the distance, and with a finger of the long sword in his hand, the messenger immediately issued a signal. Behind the city wall lined up, several rows of archers opened their bows in unison, and began to move toward the enemy one by one. Shoot arrows in the air, throw!
These archers are all equipped with the finger puller "invented" by Chen Rui. They shoot arrows very fast, and the rain of arrows pours down from the sky above the fortress. land.
On the female wall of the fortress, graceful female figures with bows and arrows and giant quivers on their backs appeared again. The "elegant" here refers to the upper body, and the lower body can only be described as "winding"—a Medusa warrior!
This group of thousands of Medusas were originally members of the Moon Shadow Legion, but they were transferred over this time. Loki gave a shout, and the Medusas in light armor drew their bows in unison and aimed at them. The target is launched. The shooting skills of the Medusas are among the best in the entire demon world, especially strengthened by the devil fruit, each arrow can almost take away a life.
However, the number of coalition forces is extremely large, and many people have already approached the city wall against the rain of arrows, especially the Magic Armored Legion, relying on the cover of large shields and heavy Kais, blocked many arrows, and set up siege ladders. When he got up, he was about to put on the city wall.
Suddenly, countless giant green vines with thorns appeared on the ground, and the terrifying plants were intertwined, growing and spreading rapidly, like giant snakes, entangled the approaching siege ladder and the enemy.
The vines are powerful and seem to have some special attributes. Even if the entangled enemies are not shattered like the siege ladder, they will soon lose their resistance and be strangled.
What surprised the coalition forces even more was that the severed parts of this terrible plant could still regenerate, as if there was an endless supply.
Guardian Vines - Large protective plants. Attributes: regeneration, stun, bound. Ten seconds after sowing, it will germinate and mature for 24 hours. It can grow in any quality of soil. It will automatically attack hostile creatures, and the degree of hostile attack can be adjusted.
