Chapter Seventy-Six: Return to Camp
In front of the southern walls of Midway, Olabein and the Darkgold Fallen Mage floated in the air in a dejected face.
Isa's orbital bombardment just "educated" them the truth that they should not be careless in the face of any enemy.
Because they had been thinking about quickly blocking the attack of the missile so that they could pursue Xue Hua, the two of them were a little absent-minded in the face of Leviathan's close-range artillery attack, so they suffered a small loss.
"Damn it! Pursue! "All three of Olabane's avatars still have a faint green smoke from them, which is a phenomenon that has been corroded by the acid in the acid-etched spore shells.
Since there was no way to dodge, they had to force a hard block so as not to hurt the portal below.
This evil pact had already held a grudge against Xue Hua because of his plan to disrupt him at the Blackstone Junction, and after today's battle, he had reached the point of hatred to the bone.
At this time, without saying a word, he urged the three avatars to chase out.
Behind him, the Dark Gold Sinking Magician also chased after him with a gloomy face and without saying a word, although this guy was known for his cunning in hell, he had never been blown away by a duck in his mouth twice in a row in one day.
This made the old Fallen Magician feel very angry, and in addition to the anger, there was also a bit of humiliation.
Midway has been taken over by Hell, and has been planted with the banner of His Highness the Demon King, and is their territory!
Now a rabble of human beings can come and go in their territory, and if they go back to hell, where will their old face go?
What will His Highness the Demon King think of it?
So it also temporarily abandoned the mentality of "poor people don't chase", and chased it out without hesitation.
Only Otto, the Dark Gold Demon Barbarian, didn't chase after him - not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't fly.
Besides, after the nightmare battle just now, it really doesn't have the strength to go on a long pursuit.
Therefore, it volunteered to stay behind to guard Midway Town to prevent humans from carrying out the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.
Well, although in fact, the so-called "strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain" has no value at all, Midway Town is now full of demonic soil, and if there is no large army to occupy and garrison it for a long time, no small force will want to defeat the demon army on the demonic soil.
Unless it's an angel.
But where are so many angels in the second world?
The pursuit of Olabein and the Dark Gold Fallen Magician was expected by Xue Hua.
After all, when someone snatches food from their mouths, everyone has fire.
But it was not certain how far they would chase, so Xue Hua did not fly directly in the direction of the big camp, but flew towards the area further south with two pursuers, so as not to expose the location of the big camp.
However, Olabane's pursuit with the Fallen Demon Wizard didn't last long, and the two guys gave up the pursuit when they were about to completely break away from the area around Midway.
Although they hated Xue Hua for stirring up their trap to destroy the Angel Legion, they had not yet lost their minds.
Now their most important task is still to guard Midway, an important stronghold that Hell has built up in the rear of the late winter war zone, if Midway is taken advantage of by the human army because of the pursuit of Xue Hua, then they will probably not be able to eat and walk around.
So when he found that he couldn't catch up with Xue Hua in a short period of time, one person and one demon could only give up the pursuit with hatred, and turned around and went back to strengthen the defense of Midway Town.
They knew that although the Angel Legion had just been severely defeated, the human side would never give up on recovering Midway because of this.
Time is not on the human side now, and as long as the Midway side can continue to jam the rear supply lines of the humans, the frontline fighting in the late winter theater will only become more and more unsustainable.
Therefore, no matter what, the human side will definitely launch another large-scale attack on Midway Town in the near future, which will be an important battle that will determine the fate of the front lines of both sides.
After Olabean and the leader of the Fallen Mages returned, Xue Hua soon began to return to the camp.
He had received news from Isha that the remaining Angel Legion and the professional troops covering the attack had now managed to escape the Outrigger pursuit of the demon forces and were returning to the camp.
This time, the reckless attack of the angels was a heavy loss, and only one hundred and twelve of the original three hundred angels managed to return to the camp in the end.
As the leader of the archangel "Angel of the Sword" Reknis was also deeply injured, and is still in a coma and has not woken up.
Although with the disturbance of the angels, the monitoring king worms successfully carefully investigated the situation inside Midway Town, but because of this information, they lost most of the angel troops with strong combat effectiveness, and generally speaking, they still lost.
Fortunately, Xue Hua completely rescued the legendary-level Reknis at the last moment, otherwise if he lost a legendary-level, then the next recovery plan really didn't know how to proceed.
Xue Hua shook his head helplessly while thinking, and secretly cursed those damn birdmen again in his heart.
However, what neither he nor Isha noticed was that just when he thought he had escaped the tracking of the two Hell Legends, a shadow like green smoke silently followed from the shadows of the rocks below......
After returning to the camp, Xue Hua first counted the battle damage caused by this rescue operation, and only breathed a long sigh of relief after finding that the professionals did not suffer any major losses.
Fortunately, these professional squads were quite obedient, and they did not rush forward when carrying out the rescue, and really managed to contain the enemy's firepower with one touch, which did not give the demon troops a chance to surround them.
Otherwise, Xue Hua really didn't know what to do next......
However, Xue Hua's combat power in the middle of the town and the ability to summon a legendary-level servant at the same time obviously greatly shocked the leaders of the unruly professional demon hunting team, and this time when they came to report the details of the battle, their attitude was obviously much more respectful than before.
"Alright, that's all for today, let's all go down and rest, take care of the secrets of the camp's location, and watch those birdmen, don't let them make trouble for us."
In the command tent, Xue Hua rubbed his temples, looked at the dense parchment in front of him, and said with a headache.
"Don't worry, Commander." The leaders of a group of professional squads had serious looks on their faces, and each of them said yes before turning out of the tent.
"Ahh I now feel like the professional commanders who command the Great Legion are gods... So many files, how the hell do they deal with them every day......"
Xue Hua reluctantly sat back in his chair, grabbed an investigation report and glanced at it, then rolled his eyes and threw it aside.
What was written on it Xue Hua knew more details than the reconnaissance team in front, so there was really no need to look carefully.
Just as he was muttering about to get rid of the damn papers, a communication signal suddenly came from an item in his inventory.
Xue Hua frowned and took a look, and found that the messenger was actually the messenger token he had obtained from the female mage in Black Corner Town not long ago......
