Chapter 174: Abyss Demon Tide
There was a pungent smell in the air, the fishy smell from the abyssal demonoid liquid, which had completely suppressed the rancid stench of zombie-like monsters, and the burnt smell of their corpses under the flames was even more disgusting.
Wave after wave of abyss-like monsters crawled out from under the abyss, as if they would never stop, and once they climbed ashore, they began to attack the patrol army guarding the city in a frenzy.
The "Barrier Seal" is not completely useless, at least its existence makes it possible for monsters to drill into only two places in this long underground abyss, and these two places are the places guarded by the patrolmen of the two places.
The seal crack that can be drilled out by the monsters is about ten meters long, although the length of this crack is not particularly exaggerated, and the city patrols guarding here are all people with very good equipment in their thirties, but they still can't stand the absolute superiority of the monsters in numbers!
The ground has been covered with monster corpses, and there are almost everywhere gold coins and equipment, and if these things are picked up by one person, it will definitely make the hands of the person who picks them up.
However, in these dangerous times, equipment and gold are no longer important! The seductive light that flashed from them brought out the awe-inspiring fortitude on the bloody faces!
No matter what the style of these people is on weekdays, they are great at this moment, what they do is to block the abyss demon tide that may cause monsters to come out of the cage on the front line, and they have resisted this burden with their flesh and blood!
The Abyss Demon Tide lasts for three days each time it starts, and during these three days, there is almost an endless stream of monsters crawling out of the abyss.
At this time, Kang Dingguo and Zhao Yan and their gang had already withstood the Demon Tide for a day and a half, and their original forty-five people had already sacrificed ten in the Demon Tide! The reduction in personnel also made the last day and a half more difficult to hold, and a feeling of being unable to hold on lingered in everyone's hearts.
However, even if they couldn't hold it, they decided to keep it! In addition to not wanting to be looked down upon by the city guards, another important reason is that above this underground abyss, there are two "barrier seals", and the relationship between these two "barrier seals" is a loss, if they give up this place, then the other must also be abandoned!
Moreover, since the distance from the other sealing place was two days away, it was impossible for one party to notify the other party when they wanted to give up. And once one side gives up, in addition to the seal crack where they are completely opened, the side that does not give up will also suffer a similar effect, and the demon tide that swells out at that time can even wipe out the unprepared side!
"Sister Yan, go and take a rest, I'll take care of it here for a while!"
The patrolmen of the town were fanned out of the ten-meter-long seal crack, and the intensity of the continuous battle forced them to take turns resting. At this time, the magician Wei Yang, who had already rested for a while, came to take Zhao Yan's place.
"Well, be careful!"
Zhao Yan casually agreed, and then laid a wall of fire towards the crack, and she looked at the crack again with some unease.
If it weren't for the fact that she was really tired enough, Zhao Yan wouldn't want to leave her post! Of all the mages that exist, her destructive power is the strongest in terms of level and equipment. Although the role of personal strength may not be particularly obvious at such times, it is better than nothing.
"Nope! Little Black ......"
"......"
“……”
“……”
He just sat down casually on the dirty ground a moment ago, his eyes hadn't been completely closed, and the sound of screaming and scolding made Zhao Yan have to open his eyes quickly.
"It's finally here!"
The situation before the crack has changed greatly, and Zhao Yan, who was secretly screaming in her heart, and the other brothers who were resting, rushed towards the position one after another.
In the moment when Zhao Yan and the others were replaced to rest, the city patrol army lost another brother! If the situation was normal, the warrior named Xiao Hei would not have died, but in the cracks that were originally just ordinary monsters pouring out, the king of the three pincer insects, the "Evil Pincer Worm", suddenly drilled out!
Moreover, one of the evil pincer worms still expanded the crack and drilled out! The moment it tore the seal apart, the huge pincers had already caught Xiao Hei, who was caught off guard outside the seal! He didn't even scream in pain, and when the blood spurted out, Xiao Hei was already caught in two by the evil pincer worm.
In the midst of the thunderstorm, the three evil pincer insects had been dyed in a colorful color by the "Poison Technique", and from time to time various attacks landed on their shining silver bodies.
The neighing evil pincers moved their steel-like bodies through the walls of fire, swinging their massive pincers again and again at the warriors in the inner circle.
They are kings, they are the kings of pincer insects, originally they should be majestic and killing! However, now that they are surrounded by more than thirty-level city patrol troops, in addition to being able to bargain for a little bargain when they first appeared, the only chance to bargain is the king technique that will be launched soon.
Demon blood kept splashing on the body of the evil pincer worm, and they didn't care about grieving too much for their dead brother, and the city patrols present felt more about a kind of happiness! The demon tide is in a relatively gentle stage at this meeting, and it does not belong to the peak period, otherwise under the leadership of these three evil pincer insects, those abyss-type monsters that swarm out will definitely make more than Xiao Hei die!
In a day and a half, the king-level monster in the pincer worm finally appeared, so will other king-level monsters be far away? Will they come out separately, or will they come out together? The fear was so thick that the patrolmen were almost overwhelmed.
Meanwhile.
About half a day's journey away from the place where Zhao Yan and the others fought, Hai Tianlan and the others finally approached this underground abyss located in the third connecting passage.
"Shhh...... Hiss ......"
A very peculiar sound came from the abyss, a sound that was difficult to hear if you weren't standing next to it.
"Big brother! Come and listen, this ...... It's a strange sound! ”
The Yuan soldier, who was killing an electric zombie next to the abyss, shouted at Hai Tianlan.
Putting down the monsters that were blocking the way, Hai Tianlan, who rushed to the side of the abyss, frowned.
A moment later, Hai Tianlan stretched out his hand and probed into the void above the abyss, and a strange feeling arose. Originally, it was just a void, but when the palm of the hand reached in, there was a slight resistance and stickiness, and that feeling was like inserting a finger into the egg liquid.
"Why did the Abyss Demon Tide erupt now? This is the energy of the seal! ”
Hai Tianlan's brows furrowed even tighter, he had already gained some understanding of the abyss demon tide from Wei Xiaoxian, the strange phenomenon in front of him that could isolate the sound and make the void have a weak resistance to people was precisely to prevent the monster from drilling out of the "blocking seal"!
