(If you want to communicate, please join the group number: 480792377)
With a loud wail from the city walls, another demon lord finally fell under the butcher's knife of the undead.
The Berserker Demon Kleinus died a terrible death!
Desperate, he finally pinned his hopes of escape on advanced teleportation, but unfortunately he did not escape the lightning interference of the "Nether Guard" of the forgotten mage Pakwick. As soon as half of his body drilled into the interspatial layer, he was disturbed by the instantaneous lightning, and half of his body was directly swallowed by the violent spatial storm by Kleinus, who was sandwiched in the cracked space.
The shattered, blood-drenched half of his body fell to the ground with a "poof", and even with such injuries, the demon's tenacious life still saved his last breath, allowing him to see the hateful zombie lord leaning over with a sinister face, holding a special crystal ball in his hand and pressing it against his forehead.
Looking at the familiar white mist in the crystal ball, and listening to the mournful wails of ghosts, the soul of the berserker Kleinus fell into eternal darkness in boundless fear.
At this moment in the battle, less than 1,000 of the more than 4,000 demon soldiers who attacked were left, and even 2 of the 4 demon little lords were killed in battle. The brutality of the battle demoralized the remaining demon soldiers, and if it weren't for the ferocious bullets of the Horned Demon Overseer, I'm afraid that there would have been deserters.
The demon's cowardice drives the momentum of the cemetery. The soldiers at the bottom of the cemetery may not be affected by the obedience of the battlefield, but the mercenaries of the cemetery who have been opened are all smiling, and when the request for permission is granted, they actually push back. They jumped directly from the white bone city wall, formed an impact formation in groups of three or five, and wantonly rushed and killed in the demon team, perfectly annihilating the last group of demon soldiers under the city wall.
As for the remaining two Demon Lords, only the Fire Demon managed to escape the battlefield, and the tall and burly Horned Demon Overseer was beaten to death by an ordinary mercenary squad due to his slow movement.
In fact, if you strictly compare it, every mid-to-high-level demon is much stronger than the undead mercenaries of the same level. This strength is not only reflected in the body and strength, almost all of them are mid-to-high-level demons with dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, and they also have a large number of spell-like abilities, and the combination of the two can completely crush the undead creatures of the same level in one-on-one combat.
However, after more than a year of continuous training, the cemetery mercenaries have killed countless undead bosses, and have rich experience in how to deal with various powerful creatures. They're almost always fighting in a squad mode, where they take down the strong, powerful magical creatures one by one in a standard teamwork fashion.
With the prosperity of the cemetery market and the replenishment of high-level troops in the cemetery, the strength of the cemetery mercenary team has been greatly expanded, coupled with the armament of powerful magic equipment, the resistance to different types of bosses is also rapidly improving.
If it weren't for that, how could that level 14 elite Horned Demon Overseer be brutally killed by a group of graveyard mercenaries with an average level of 12.
When the Horned Demon Overseer wailed and collapsed, the mercenary squad that was still full of fighting spirit just now immediately transformed into the finest butchers, extracting souls from souls, and dissecting samples from dissecting samples. After some busyness, a behemoth with a height of nearly 7 meters and a weight of 30 tons was disemboweled, and the body organs were taken out one by one and placed in a special container. Not only the body parts, but also the demon's signature horns, fangs, claws, and other parts of the body that can be used are also cut down.
This scene, the Flo Demon, who was following the overseers in the rear, was completely broadcast to the Demon Commander's Tent, causing the headquarters of this high-level demon to explode in an instant. And what made the demon even more unbearable was that even the flesh and blood of the demon lord that remained after taking the essence of his body was swept away by the swarming low-level undead. The dignified level 14 Horned Demon Overseer, a demon lord, was left with no bones left after a quarter of an hour, and not even a trace of flesh and blood remained.
It's a humiliation, a great humiliation that etches hatred into the bones!
The Demon Dominion's tent was shaken by a huge wave of sound. All the demon lords waved their thick arms and cursed the damned undead with the most vicious curses, and each demon was crying out for his life to incinerate them to ashes with the rage in his heart.
The Fire Burning Demon who had just escaped was torn to shreds, and the rich bloody aura filled the entire tent, making the blood pupils of the demons more and more red and dazzling, and also stimulating the ferocity of the plane lord Hilgai.
Without a flashy pre-war declaration, an angry roar was the best mobilization order, and the demon army, which had been completely enraged, moved again, rushing forward to cover the fog of war.
It was impossible for the demon army of hundreds of thousands to be confined to one aspect to launch a siege on one side, and after a simple distribution, the dense black and red torrent split in two in front of the cemetery city, extending along the towering city wall to the two wings, enveloping the chaotic land in a sea of soldiers with the momentum of swallowing the whale.
The demon legion assigned to the remote siege of the city had not yet been in place, and the demon lord who was on the frontal battlefield could not hold back his tyrannical mood and led his demons to approach within 3 miles of the city.
In this range, neither a qiē spell nor a quasi-spell can exert the best effect, so the so-called "ranged weapons" are still the first to start to wield.
Since the demons never paid attention to the development of war equipment, the only people in the team who could be called long-range firepower were the numerous fire throwers and fire demon legions. Even if these mid- and low-level fire demons are promoted to the elite level, their attack range is at most 500 meters, and usually between 200 and 300. Such a distance is not so obvious when the two armies face each other, but in a siege battle, it is inevitable to suffer a big loss.
As the only city in the abyss realm where the cemetery is located, the Land of Chaos foresaw the current situation at the beginning of the city's construction, so it is the most complete of all cemetery cities in terms of city defense facilities and urban fire prevention equipment. Long-range throwing carts, medium-range undead ballistas, and short-range necromancer death clouds divide the perimeter of the cemetery into a layered line of defense.
The first wave of demons attacked the city just now, and the chaotic land slowly grinded 4,000 demons to death by relying on melee combat at the head of the city, and did not launch a large-scale joint defense at all, so the demon wizard carefully prepared a "luxury gift package" for nearly 2 months, and the demons didn't notice it at all.
And at this moment, the wonderful prologue slowly kicked off!
The first great gift that a demon wizard has prepared for an attacking demon is a thrower.
In each of the four carefully selected long-range positions in the city of the Chaos Lands, five huge throwers with a height of more than 20 meters were erected, and four abominants needed to launch them together. The predecessor of these throwers was the most long-range attack weapon that the cemetery blacksmith could make, the catapult, but considering that throwing boulders does not have much significance in the current city attack and defense, a special modification was made to this catapult after the brainstorming of the city.
The modified dropper no longer throws cut boulders, but instead of a special class that the Graveyard has just developed, the Plague Zombies. Due to Li Xun's instinctive rejection, the plague zombie class rarely appeared in the class construction list of the Crane Continent Cemetery City, and it wasn't until the last time that the underground world showed its skills.
How so? If you use the Plague Zombie to conquer cities and fight the enemy's line of fire, then it can anger all commanders to death. Slow speed, clumsy attacks, and monotonous attack methods make them the most popular "experience babies" among the Cemetery people. But if they can be used in the right place, at the right time, and reasonably, they can become the cheapest "suicide bombs" for the cemetery family.
Now, the Demon Wizard uses the modified dropper to continuously throw plague zombies at the location of the Demon Legion, which is a disgusting trick.
A huge net pocket of a dropper can hold 3 plague zombies hugging each other at the same time, and 20 droppers can use force at the same time to throw 60 plague zombies in the mode of human bombs to the densest places of the demon army. With the weak attack of the plague zombie, it can also be compared with the little coward, and there is no door to count on it to kill the enemy, so its task is to "send it to death".
Once they die, their bodies are full of plague viruses, and a 10-meter-wide cloud of yellow-green smoke explodes in place, and the plague spores spread outward along with the smoke. Any living form that comes into contact with the cloud of disease will be tortured by the epidemic, and those with a strong constitution may only have some weakening effects, while those with a strong constitution will produce a negative blessing similar to the "epidemic technique", and have the effect of continuously reducing vitality, attack power, and defense power.
Therefore, with the dropper, it also eliminated several major defects of the plague zombie's slow movement and weak attack, and made it the most disgusting class in the graveyard battle sequence in one fell swoop.
In the First World War, Li Xun successfully used the plague zombies to delay the combined forces of the human mage and the Mind Flayer, making this class bloom again. But today, the demon wizard directly turned them into a big killing weapon against the dense formation of the demon legion.
The Legion of Demons had just rushed into the Bone Hand area under the Bone City Wall, and was methodically cleaning up. A group of powerful and thick-skinned horned demons lined up in formation, directly crushing the dense bone hands into bone powder all over the ground, reducing a lot of trouble for the follow-up siege troops.
Just when the Demon Legion was slowly and orderly injecting into the corresponding area under the assignment of the Demon Lords, the first wave of counterattacks from the cemetery came.
"Whoosh ......"
With a sharp whistling and faint screams in the air, 60 inconspicuous small black dots suddenly rose from the city and smashed their heads towards the location of the demon army outside the city.
Many of the leading demon lords had far more eyesight than humans, and they could see the essence of these black spots almost instantly, and they turned out to be low-level creatures among the undead creatures that were only worthy of being with skeletons-zombies.
