Chapter 0386: Fierce Battle at the Head of the City 2
Under this three-dimensional blow, the form of the city head, which had just been reversed, immediately fell to the forefront of collapse. However, at this time, the mage tower, which had been brewing for a long time, also completed the preparation of a large-scale spell, and gradually began to exert its power.
A huge thunderclap that shook the heavens and the earth rang out, and the thick black clouds that were tumbling endlessly began to gather above the city, and lightning and thunder were faintly seen inside, and from time to time there were violent and winding electric snakes flashing at the edge of the clouds.
The first to be restrained were the Flodemons hovering in mid-air. Huge black clouds almost rolled and extended on their scalps, each flicker of their bodies was accompanied by a series of tiny lightning explosions that crackled, and the paralysis caused by the strong static reaction made it difficult for them to fly freely.
However, the target of the huge thundercloud in the sky was not them, but the huge pile of corpses that had been trampled under the city wall, where the corpses of thousands of demon soldiers made up of the way to the city. It was precisely because of this flat path of corpses that the follow-up demon soldiers could continuously attack the defense line of the city. The undead summoning that the corpse witch had just cast together had only destroyed the most superficial layer, and had not yet damaged the foundation of the corpse path.
Therefore, the "Thundercloud Storm" cast by the Mage Tower with surging magic power put the first target of attack on the path of corpses. A huge pillar of electricity fell from the sky, hitting the middle of the path of corpses, and the extreme heat caused a violent explosion, and the demon soldiers who were climbing on it were thrown into the air with the mutilated corpses in a terrifying wave of explosion, and then rammed down like raindrops.
With just one blow, a deep pit appeared in the middle of the path of corpses, and the edge of the pit was full of broken limbs and broken arms, and some demons who had not completely lost their breath could be vaguely seen squirming faintly.
The snow-white burns left by the first pillar had not yet subsided, and the second pillar struck down one after another, followed by the third...... Article 4 ......
It took seven consecutive electric column bombardments to completely exhaust the magical energy in the rolling thunderclouds in mid-air, and the black clouds slowly dissipated, and the sky was filled with a strong stench of electric shocks. The road of corpses made of the corpses of nearly 10,000 demon cannon fodder was also completely dismantled, and the scattered corpses thrown away smashed the demon legion to the ground, and they had to retreat 3 miles to reorganize the team.
In this way, the demon legion that had already attacked the city became a lone army fighting independently, and was cut off from a steady stream of troops in the rear. The cemetery mercenaries, who were originally hidden in the war towers and war fortresses, rushed out of the situation, began to divide the ranks of mid-level demons in their familiar squad mode, and then defeated them one by one by fighting bosses.
The Mage Tower did not block the teleportation of this group of mid-level demons with magic shielding, but it was very insidious to prevent them from jumping out again with a weak spatial interference, so this group of melee troops mainly composed of berserker demons, blood lion demons, and six-armed snake demons fell tragically under the siege of the cemetery mercenaries.
Some of the Flomos who took advantage of the dissipation of the thundercloud storm and forcibly took off to rescue some of their subordinates who had returned, and were immediately attacked by a dense cloud of death of the corpse witch, dodging left and right in the air, dodging the gray light like a nimble fly. At every turn, some hapless ghost will be accidentally injured by a stray bullet in the rapid dodge, and then his flight speed will drop sharply, and then a series of flowers of death will bloom on him.
After an hour, the demons at the head of the city were basically wiped out, and only a few clever guys took advantage of the chaos to jump off the city wall to escape. At this time, after the demon legion retreated to the distance and sorted out the team, it slowly advanced again and began the second siege.
……
The fierce fighting continued.
During the two consecutive days of non-stop siege, a huge amount of demonic cannon fodder fell under the wall of white bones. However, the current city wall can no longer be called white bones, but can be called red bones, purple bones, or black bones.
In the continuous attack, the wall of skulls has been damaged in many places, especially in the frontal battlefield, where a huge 2-meter-wide gap has appeared. However, it was filled and tamped by a large number of cannon fodder soldier corpses on both sides, and became indestructible again.
Although the corpse witches are tireless, their mana is not infinite, so they can barely maintain the defensive firepower needs of the city head when they take turns to fight.
On the third day, the Demon Legion had a new batch of demon armies to reinforce it, although it was only a 100,000 low-level cannon fodder troops, but it once again extended the battle indefinitely. In just two days of continuous attacks, the 130,000 cannon fodder troops originally prepared by the demon were actually lost by more than half, and if it were not for this timely replenishment, the intensity of the war would inevitably be reduced.
After two days of war, the Demon Legion has also found the best match to storm the wall of the undead. That is, the grouped middle-level demons used the precision teleportation technique to seize the city and fight to the death, opening the way for the subsequent large-scale low-level demon soldiers to attack. With such a combination of strength and weakness, as long as the follow-up forces keep up in time, there is no need to worry about the mid-level demons being divided and beaten by those damn undead at the head of the city, and the low-level demon soldiers can also quickly occupy a numerical advantage at the head of the city.
Of course, there are also daring demons who want to rely on the mobility of teleportation to break directly into the core area of the undead city to see what kind of secrets are hidden in the cloudy hidden place. But the demons who thought this way disappeared into the fog without a sound, never to come out again. From this, all the demons knew that it must be the key place for the undead, but no one dared to trespass alone.
……
The war has been going on for 5 days, and both the demon undead have suffered staggering battle damage.
The demon side has already lost 140,000 low-level demon soldiers, although most of them are cannon fodder troops below the 3rd order, but this number is so large that the plane lord Hilgai has to frown. As for the mid- and high-level demons who were the commanders, there were also a lot of casualties, and their damage was mainly concentrated in the cluster breakthrough stage. The undead even did not hesitate to pay many times the casualties of cannon fodder to divide and surround them, and then gather and annihilate them.
This kind of ruthless behavior caused heavy damage to the battle group composed of many middle-level demons, and it also had a heavy psychological shadow on the assault operation, and when carrying out the orders of the high-level demons, it was no longer as brave and active as before. However, due to their huge efforts in the early stage, most of the undead ballistas and half of the throwers in the cemetery city were destroyed by Shunlì, which turned the later battle into a close-range face-to-face fight.
And the undead side also lost 350,000. Originally, with the scale of the Land of Chaos, there was no such number of low-level undead, but it was impossible to stand up to a large number of death-controlling witch kings. With the assistance of the junior corpse witch, they would perform a large-scale "undead summoning" almost every 6 hours, each time bringing nearly 10,000 cannon fodder soldiers to the chaotic lands, which is why the war dragged on for so long.
After a few days of fighting, the outer skull wall of the cemetery city had collapsed in a large area, and even without the help of the corpse path, the low-level demon soldiers could easily get through the cracks in the huge city wall.
The loss of geographical advantages, coupled with the continuous decline of the mana baseline of the corpse witches, the advantage of the cemetery is gradually disappearing. Originally, with the protection of the city wall, it was able to bring huge casualties to the demon soldiers, but once they were pulled to the level to fight, the strong low-level demon soldiers would completely crush the thin cemetery cannon fodder, and the casualties in the cemetery would also rise in a straight line.
Seeing the decline of the undead, the blood-red demon lords who had been stimulated by the huge number of casualties could no longer suppress the tyrannical murderous aura in their hearts, and rushed into the city with their own personal guards and began to wreak havoc. The entire battlefield is slowly moving from the city walls to the depths, and anyone who can look down on this necropolis city from above will find that the title of Land of Chaos is truly worthy of its name.
Except for the core of the city, which is still tightly sealed in a thick fog, all the buildings, streets, and alleys on the outskirts are fighting in one way or another. Some battlefield demons have an absolute advantage, surrounding the undead troops and slowly wearing them away; Some of the Battlefield Graveyard Elite Mercenary Squads have successfully intercepted a small team of a Demon Lord, and they are struggling to attack.
Such battle scenes spread throughout the chaotic land, and the demon forces had lost control of the overall situation, and they were just relying on the personal bravery of the demon lord to rush around. The cemetery troops were in chaos and order, and a large number of cannon fodder troops swarmed out of the fog, interspersing with the demon troops in a scattered formation, making the battle more and more chaotic.
Under the precise command of the cemetery's higher-ups, the elite cemetery mercenary teams are stealthy, and they can always find those high-level demons who have broken away from the large army in the chaotic battlefield, and then kill them fiercely, silently reducing the number of high-level demons of the demon army in a covert and low-key manner.
This is also the unanimous opinion of the top management of the cemetery.
The background of the chaotic land is not thick, but it is not afraid to fight against a large number of low-level demons, and the only thing that can make the high-level of the cemetery afraid is the number of high-level demons on the other side.
These high-level demons, who are all above level 16 on average, once they put down the lord's shelf and charge in clusters like middle-level demons, then the chaotic land will not be able to gather the combat power to resist such a group of masters.
The undead and demons have different populations, and their combat power is also very different.
Although the level of the current undead mercenaries is not much different from that of middle-level demons, if they fight alone fairly, it will surprise Li Xun to be able to keep themselves from dying, let alone encounter high-level demons, which will be even more devastating.
Just from the last time Skeletron led all the elite undead of Stratholme to sneak attack a level 16 ghost lord, they were all disgraced, and now in the cemetery city, there are more than a dozen high-level demons that are not weaker than the ghost lord are roaming and abusing the undead, wanting to kill them one by one quietly, it is really a difficult task.
