Chapter 673: Insect Plague (Part II)
Chapter 673: Insect Plague (Medium)
The steppe barbarians were directly affected, and their fanaticism for war increased, and a large number of barbarian soldiers were once again sent to attack Yingyang Pass. The barbarian shamans and demon sorcerers at the rear of the army also felt that their sacrificial blood sorcery and black magic seemed to be easier and more powerful.
Under the influence of the hallucinogenic power of the light blue smoke, they did not notice that something was wrong, but excitedly and desperately used witchcraft to bless the soldiers, summoning powerful magic to attack the city, even if they cast spells one by one until the magic backlash and vomit blood did not stop.
A black-robed Demon Dao cultivator inside the camp seemed to have sensed something, frowned and looked around, sniffed again, and muttered to himself, "Strange, why is the evil aura of this battlefield so strong, and it seems that some kind of abnormality has occurred?"
A shaman beside him who was full of totem patterns, wearing animal skins and bird feathers, and had a pale face, heard this, and couldn't help but "quack!" Strange laughter a few times, and said in a voice like a night owl: "Our major tribes in the grassland have gathered most of the warriors to attack the Song Dynasty this time, but they have been blocked by this Eagle Yang Pass for so long, fighting for many days, killing and wounding more than 10,000 people, and the battlefield is a little more evil, what is strange." โ
With that, he recited a few strange syllable incantations in his mouth, and then dipped some blood in a bottle filled with dark red special blood on his waist with his hand, and threw it forward, immediately turning into a large cloud of dark red mist, enveloping the steppe barbarians on the battlefield in front.
These steppe barbarians who had absorbed the dark red mist were immediately like stimulants, their faces were excited, their eyes were blood-red, and even their bodies were swelled by three points.
"Quack, quack, this 'demonic bloodthirsty technique', which combines the essence of black magic and witchcraft, is really powerful, and with the increase in the essence blood of this powerful demonic beast and the evil qi of the battlefield, the power is even more powerful. The shaman saw that the combat power of the steppe barbarians in front of him had greatly increased under the blessing of his spells, and immediately smiled with satisfaction.
The Demon Dao cultivator looked around again, except that the evil aura on the battlefield had become more violent, and even began to manifest a black and gray cloud in the sky, he really didn't find anything abnormal, and he also shook his head, secretly saying that he might really just be suspicious, and then he also cast a spell with the shaman wizard to cooperate with the large-scale attack of the grassland barbarians.
What they didn't notice was that the cloud that they thought was the manifestation of the evil qi was slowly expanding at an imperceptible speed all the time, and as the number of dead and wounded on the battlefield increased, the color of the evil qi became more and more intense, and the most important place had even penetrated blood red, and the evil qi was very evil.
And an extremely weak, but very evil spiritual fluctuation also shrouded the ten miles around, constantly distorting the thoughts of all living beings inside, and the more powerful the creature, the more powerful the spiritual fluctuation shrouded in the head, such as shamans and demon cultivators.
If you are a master who has studied the evil gods of the universe here, you will definitely exclaim, "Evil Turbid Fetal Movement"! This is a natural skill that can be exerted by the fetal egg of the evil god before the birth of the evil god under the instinct of self-preservation, which can confuse and alienate all the creatures around it, and this "evil turbid fetal movement" will not stop until the birth of the evil god's dependents.
This kind of mental distortion was slow and subtle, so they didn't notice it at all, and even under the influence of this fluctuation, they continued to make what they thought were "right", throwing batches of steppe barbarians into the battlefield, but turning a blind eye to the continuous withering of the corpses of the dead in battle, the disappearance of blood and other abnormalities.
Time passed, the battle under the Eagle Yang Pass has been fought for seven days and seven nights in the blink of an eye, and the casualties on both sides of the war are also very tragic. Even when it was discovered that there were too many deaths, the shamans, who had been confused, kept sending messengers to gather other steppe tribes.
Under such a steady stream of attacks, regardless of casualties, although Yingyang Pass had the defensive advantage of fortified cities and protective formations, it was isolated after all, lacking supplies and manpower, and now it was on the verge of breaking the city. The defending generals had already received a summons from the flying sword, and it was difficult to mobilize manpower because the barbarians from all four sides had recently launched an attack on the Great Song Border Pass. However, as long as you hold on for one more day, you will be able to send a group of recuperated worshippers from the front line of the northwest against the demon legion to come to support.
Therefore, although the enemy attacked fiercely, the defenders of Yingyang Pass were still gritting their teeth and holding on.
No one noticed that the bodies of the two warring parties had undergone some degrees of alienation. The Great Song soldiers in the city were okay, because they were protected by a protective formation, so only brown spots and pimples of different sizes appeared on the skin, and the unprotected grassland barbarians changed greatly.
Due to the long-term influence of demonic magic, the body has long had a certain degree of demonization, and then infected by the magic of this evil god demon insect, the two seem to have some kind of special superimposed reaction, so that a large area of scales appeared on the grassland barbarian's body, a pitch-black carapace appeared on the chest, front and back, and the top of the head also grew fleshy tentacles of different lengths, fingers and toes gradually closed, becoming arthropod-shaped, and even the eyes became larger several times, which were full of turbid blood, forming a grid.
Overall, it looks like a hybrid creature of ants, beetles, and humans.
The more alienated the steppe barbarians, the stronger their combat effectiveness, but the more they lost their sanity, and some even began to attack their companions like crazy in the camp, causing a lot of chaos.
By now, anyone who can still keep their sanity should notice that something is wrong. Because not only the soldiers on both sides, but even the evil qi in the sky has condensed into a huge black and gray face, and the cracked mouth seems to be smiling, and slowly descends to the ground as time passes, making people shudder to watch.
It's a pity that the cultivation of shamans and demon cultivators on the side of the steppe barbarians is not enough to resist the pollution of the "evil turbidity fetal movement", and they have also been partially alienated, and they only know how to fight and kill. And the worship in the Eagle Yang Pass and the masters in the army, although they were not greatly affected under the protection of the defensive formation, they thought that these changes were caused by the other party's evil magic skills, and they just continued to wait for help, and did not think of other places.
Finally, in the middle of the night, the moon set and the stars were sparse, and the heavens and the earth fell into darkness.
And a huge change has also happened here.
