Chapter 369: Elite Troops Suddenly Appeared!
Maybe it was because they had absolute confidence in the defense of the City of Divine Punishment, or because of the special status of Chu Xun and the others as "reinforcements", in short, Chu Xun and the others were almost unhindered, and they left the City of Divine Punishment directly.
The prohibition of the City of Divine Punishment was extremely powerful, not only covering the City of Divine Punishment itself, but also covering an area of thousands of kilometers in front of the City of Divine Punishment. It's just that the farther away from the City of Divine Punishment, the weaker the power of this prohibition becomes.
Of course, the distance of thousands of kilometers is very far for ordinary people, but it is nothing to Chu Xun and the others who are hurrying at full speed. After a quick journey all the way, Chu Xun and the others quickly left the protective scope of this prohibition and came to the real war zone.
And with the disappearance of this forbidden force, the strong smell of sulfur in the air, and the intense heat also followed. On top of that, there was a strong smell of blood and burnt stench mixed with the sulfur smell, making the air unpleasant.
"Looks like a lot of people died in front of you......"
For this kind of bloody and scorching aura, Chu Xun and the others who had been killed all the way from the sea of blood in the apocalyptic corpse mountain were too familiar. So after smelling this smell, Chu Xun and the others also frowned slightly.
Judging from the intensity of the smell of blood, there should have been a brutal battle or massacre ahead of them, but the death toll was definitely quite high.
Thinking of this, Chu Xun and the others also sped up and continued to move forward with the strong smell of blood.
Sure enough, just as they thought, as they continued to move forward, the signs of battle on the road became more and more obvious, and a large number of corpses began to appear along the way.
These corpses had obviously experienced a terrible war before their deaths, and they were basically mutilated and miserable.
At this moment, a large number of corpse fragments of different shapes were piled up, like a small mountain, and the blood that flowed out also gathered together, turning into viscous plasma and spreading all over the messy battlefield, at a glance, it looked like there were several more rivers of blood.
"The blood hasn't dried up yet, and it looks like this battle hasn't been over for long."
Looking at the viscous plasma on the ground and the fragments of those mutilated corpses, Skyfall frowned slightly, and then asked in a condensed voice: "And judging from the physical characteristics of these corpses, as well as the weapons and armor fragments they used, these corpses are likely to be the vanguard troops sent by the City of Divine Punishment to clear the general attack route when the war horn sounded before." ”
Speaking of this, Skyfall lightly kicked the head of a man with a hideous and terrifying appearance and two twisted horns on the side of his feet, and then continued, "You see, there are not only human corpses here, but also the corpses of many more demonic creatures. Looking at the direction in which the corpses and the traces of the battle spread, these people should still be moving forward and fighting. ”
Soon after they entered the City of Divine Punishment, they heard the call for war. And the sound of the war horn also proves that the city of divine punishment has launched an attack on the demons outside the city. Combined with the time they had heard the trumpet, the distance they had traveled, and the drying up of the blood on the ground, there was no doubt that the corpses belonged to that fighting force.
As for those demonic creatures on the ground, they were naturally killed by this combat force.
"Look at the direction, this army is also heading to the Flame River. Let's go, let's help them! ”
Although Chu Xun is not a bad person, in this case, he still doesn't mind helping these combat troops.
After all, the direction they are heading is also a river of flames, and even without this combat force, they will sooner or later clash with the demonic creatures along the way. What's more, with their strength, dealing with ordinary demons and demonic creatures won't waste much of their time at all.
"Speed up, catch up with them, and fight fast!"
Hearing Chu Xun's words, Zhou Yulong and the others had no opinion. Then, everyone also increased their speed, following the traces of battle on the ground, and continued to move forward.
However, to the surprise of Chu Xun and the others, as they advanced, although there were more and more corpses on the road, piling up like mountains and rivers of blood, there were fewer and fewer human corpses among them, and most of the corpses belonged to demonic creatures. Even later, there were no more human corpses among these corpses, and only a large number of mutilated demonic remains remained.
Seeing these traces on the battlefield, Chu Xun and the others were also stunned for a moment, and they felt a burst of surprise in their hearts.
It stands to reason that as the distance from the City of Divine Punishment gets farther and farther away, and the number of battles increases, the strength of this force should be continuously weakened by a large number of demons, and the casualties will become heavier and heavier. How could it be that you chased all the way and saw no human corpses on the way, only the remains of those demonic creatures?
And judging from the traces of the battlefield and the extent of the damage to the remains of these demonic creatures, it seems that they have been completely bombarded by some huge and terrifying force, so that it is difficult to see any other traces of battle on the battlefield other than those huge bombardment marks.
Could it be that this fighting force used some powerful hole cards?
Or did they receive the aid of some strong man?
Thinking of this, Chu Xun and the others became more and more curious in their hearts, sped up their speed, and continued to chase forward.
The speed of Chu Xun and the others was naturally not comparable to those ordinary combatants, even if this combat force left the city earlier than Chu Xun and the others, it didn't take too long for Chu Xun and the others to finally catch up with this force.
However, to the surprise of Chu Xun and the others, this force was actually not as strong as they imagined. Although the number of this force is large, it is almost impossible to see the end of this force at a glance, and the number is at least more than 100,000. But according to the perception of Chu Xun and the others, the strength of almost the vast majority of the people in this army is between the heavenly rank and the god level, and there are even less than a hundred people who exceed the god level.
Of course, the combat force composed of more than 100,000 heaven-rank powerhouses and nearly 100 god-level powerhouses was naturally not weak. In addition, the vast majority of them exude a divine and light aura on their bodies, and they are obviously cultivating the inheritance of the Angel Lineage, so this army also has quite strong combat power when facing demons.
However, in the eyes of Chu Xun and the others, although the strength of this force was okay, it was absolutely impossible to easily slaughter so many demonic creatures along the way, and its own damage was extremely small, or even unscathed.
"Who?"
"Alert!"
"Battle formation!"
……
Chu Xun and the others did not hide their traces, so when Chu Xun and the others caught up, those soldiers also discovered them. Then, in a burst of loud cheers, those holy mages in white robes and holding staffs, as well as those paladins wearing heavy swords, giant shields, or hammers and scepters, were also on alert.
At the same time, several angels with wings on their backs also shot at dozens of divine mages and paladins with god-level strength, surrounding Chu Xun and the others.
However, when they discovered that Chu Xun and the others were not demons, but human beings, they were obviously relieved. And the two-winged angel who was the leader stared at Chu Xun and the others, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Don't you know how dangerous it is to leave the city of divine punishment and act on your own? Now that the demons along the way have just been cleaned up by the adults, and the journey is safe, you might as well hurry up and return to the City of Divine Punishment. ”
At this point, the angel paused slightly, and then continued, "Of course, if you also want to purify those demons, then you can also join our battle team and fight with us. But in the course of the battle, you must follow the instructions and do not cause unnecessary sacrifices. ”
In the eyes of this angel, Chu Xun and the others were just a group of god-level powerhouses. Although these dozen god-level powerhouses are not a weak force, if they act privately outside this Divine Punishment City, then they will also be in great danger. That's why he persuaded Chu Xun and the others to let them go back first, or simply join this team and fight together.
"Ladies and gentlemen?"
However, hearing the angel's words, Chu Xun suddenly frowned.
According to the angel, most of the demons along the way were cleared by what he called "Lords". Combined with the traces of battle along the way and the changes in the proportion of corpses, Chu Xun can basically deduce that there should be a powerful elite force, just like them, this combat force in front of him also left the city and rushed over shortly after leaving the city.
And in the process of hurrying, the elite troops not only caught up with the team in front of them, but also helped them clear out the demonic creatures along the way.
This wasn't surprising, after all, they had just wanted to do it.
It is precisely because of this that among the corpses along the way, the corpses of human beings will change from more to less, and finally disappear completely, and the traces of the battle have also changed.
Thinking of this, Chu Xun's heart suddenly moved.
At this moment, he didn't see any real powerhouses in this army, but there was still a strong smell of blood in front of him, and there were many corpses along the way. This also means that the elite unit did not stop after catching up with this force and clearing the demons along the way, but continued to move forward.
And judging from the direction of this journey, if there is no accident, this army should be heading for the Flame River!
Could it be that this army has the same purpose as theirs, for the sword of Hradim in the long river of flames?
