Chapter 566: The situation is not good

In fact, for the Demon Legion, the best way now is for all the high-level demons above the silver level to go out together and fight with the other party, and with the advantage of numbers, they may be able to take advantage of a little advantage.

But unfortunately, the Demon Legion showed one of his huge weaknesses at this time, that is, he did not have enough air power.

When Emperor Shi Tian chose the battlefield, he fully took this into account, all the hellfire catapults were arranged on the cliffs, and there were many rivers and woods in the middle, and there were many obstacles such as rivers and woods, even if the land march of the demon cavalry was very fast, it would take an hour or two to rush through.

And the troops that can fly, only the Great Demon of the gold level or above, and a small number of silver troops, if they go up to fight alone, they will definitely die a very ugly death.

I have to say that Emperor Shi Tian is worthy of being an old man who has fought a battle, and he has grasped the weakness of the demon army so quickly.

It turned out that the Abyss Plane, the home of the Demon Legion, was a place with a particularly high gravity, which was not conducive to the development of biological flight.

Coupled with the fact that the demons are all hot-tempered, they simply do not allow guys of lower level than themselves to fly over their heads, which causes the sky of the entire abyss plane to become extremely dangerous.

Even if it is a gold-level great demon, with two wings, it is only used for acceleration during battle, and rarely dares to fly wantonly in the abyss plane.

Because maybe they will fly over the head of a sleeping legendary demon, and then they will be captured and tortured and killed by various means.

In this case, the ground forces in the Abyss Plane are very strong, but the air power is extremely weak, only a few silver-level demons can fly, even the gold-level and above-level demons, the flight ability is not strong.

Therefore, they clearly knew where the Hellfire Catapult was, and they also knew that the number of troops on the opposite side was not stronger than their own, but they were limited to the disadvantage of the terrain, so they did not dare to take the initiative to attack.

In desperation, dozens of great demons discussed with each other for a while, and they could only choose to evacuate separately.

Because those crazy hellfire legions have already set their sights on the silver-level elite demons that have been assembled, and they are about to rush over and kill them.

Although if it really fights, the Demon Legion has a great chance of winning, but then it will definitely lose a lot, and it will be picked up by the alchemy angels on the opposite side at that time.

So in addition to retreating, they are also sincere, and there is no good way.

However, the high-level demons above the silver level have enough mobile power, and they can basically escape the pursuit of hellfire, but the remaining low-level demons can't even run away from hellfire, and can only run in fear under the siege and interception of dozens of hellfires, but there are not many who can really escape.

In addition to the tens of thousands of demons who were killed by the hellfire, more than half of the remaining demon cannon fodder was burned alive by the evil energy flames radiated by the hellfire. There are also many demons who were simply stoned to death by hellfire with a flaming fist.

Anyway, in the more than half an hour when the hellfire was raging, more than 300,000 demon legions suffered heavy losses, and they died tragically on the spot, just over 100,000, and there were many demons who fled to nothing, and they couldn't find it in the end.

In the end, the high-level demon fled for hundreds of kilometers, and then after reining in the nearby troops, he suddenly wanted to cry without tears.

The mighty army of 300,000 is now less than 100,000, although most of the losses are cannon fodder troops, but there are also many silver-level high-level demons who were stoned to death by hellfire, or killed.

There was even an unlucky gold-level demon, because of his inconvenience and bad luck, he fell five Hellfire meteorites nearby one after another, all of them ate the shock wave, and he was injured on the spot, and then he was surrounded by five hellfires and beaten to death.

This guy became the only gold-level high-ranking demon who was killed by hellfire, and he was really aggrieved!

In this way, even if the demon army on this road is disintegrated, there is basically no way to attack in a short time.

Whether it is the elite troops commanded by those alchemy angels, or the ten hellfire catapults, they are all terrifying obstacles, with them, the demon army, unless they gather enough strength, they will definitely not dare to come to seek death again.

At the same time as dealing with this army, another team of Emperor Shi Tian also began to attack the other demon army.

These teams also have 30 Alchemy Angels, but the Champion Knights and Light Priests are a little less numerous, with a hundred each.

In addition to them, there are also tentacle knights with a whopping 5,000.

Similarly, this team's attack method is to bully the Demon Legion's air force.

They flew at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, and then carpet bombed the dense demon legions below, and countless alchemy grenades the size of human heads fell as if it were raining.

Emperor Shi Tian is also out of the way this time, each tentacle Ji is equipped with 20 grenades, and 5,000 tentacle Ji is a full 100,000.

Although the accuracy was relatively low after falling from the sky, there were too many of them, and the Demon Legion's target was also large, so in the end, most of the grenades fell on the Demon Legion's head.

In the entire demon legion, the total number of troops that can fly is not a hundred, and in the face of tens of thousands of troops in the sky, as well as a large number of high-level troops such as alchemy angels, they really don't have the courage to fly up to fight.

Of course, the great demons who are good at long-range spell casting will not give up easily, and they try their best to release spells on the flying troops in the sky, not to mention, there are really many fire-type spells that can hit so high.

But what's the use of that? The alchemy angels who are also at the gold level are not ornaments, and there are also light priests, who are even better at the defense spells of the light system.

Along with the huge shields of light, all the fire-based spells that the Great Demon had hit were blocked.

In fact, under normal circumstances, only a silver-level light priest would not be able to block the fire-type spells of gold-level archdemons, unless ten hit one.

But today's situation is different, the big demon is standing on the ground, and if he wants to cast a spell at a height of 10,000 meters, he must use spell range extension techniques, as well as other auxiliary abilities, to ensure a range of 10,000 meters, so that the power of the spell is bound to not reach the highest, only half of their heyday.

Therefore, more than a hundred light priests, together with 30 alchemy angels, easily blocked all the fire spells of the great demons.

On the contrary, the Demon Legion has never had a large protective spell, because the demons are extremely selfish and have never cared about their own defenses, so they don't bother to care about those cannon fodder.

Anyway, in the abyss plane, there is a lack of everything, that is, there is no shortage of cannon fodder demons, and if you just walk outside, you can recruit tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands.

In this case, the demon leaders never cared about the life or death of cannon fodder, and they never thought of covering up spells for them.

As a result, 100,000 grenades smashed on the ground and exploded into a single piece, and the demons above the silver did not take it seriously, at most they felt annoying, and it was almost difficult to be harmed.

But those demon cannon fodder are different, after all, they are grenades the size of a human head, and their lethality has reached the level of second-level spells, which is equivalent to the power of bronze.

The black iron level demon baby will be killed and blown away as long as it is close to ten meters, and the shrapnel from the white bone grenade can seriously injure the demon baby 50 meters away.

Even the little devil, within three meters of the grenade, is basically dead and alive.

Other demon types with low defense are also very afraid of grenade explosion damage.

The entire demon marching team stretched out for ten miles, and the alchemy angel with many tentacles blew it up from beginning to end, and it took more than ten minutes to blow it up, which can be regarded as cleaning the entire demon army.

Those demons with strong defense are basically watching the show, but the large number of demon cannon fodder has indeed suffered heavy losses.

They were killed on the spot, at least more than 50,000 people, and more than 100,000 people were injured, and the injuries were not light.

You know, the total number of this demon army is only about 300,000, and half of them have been lost at once, how can this be fun?

Although the losses are all cannon fodder, and the high-level demons are basically unharmed, but without the cover of many cannon fodder, and the neat human army is just head-on, I am afraid that a large number of high-level demons will have to pay a lot of lives.

Dozens of gold-level great demons gathered together again, and after discussing it for a while, they finally decided to stop advancing temporarily, they didn't care about the death of cannon fodder, but they definitely cared about their own lives.

Anyway, the order they received was only to attack in this direction, and now that they have suffered heavy losses, they naturally have an excuse to rest.

In the cunning demon world, if you want to live for a long time, first of all, don't be impulsive and take risks, this is an iron law.

Through these two blocking battles, Emperor Shi Tian successfully blocked the demon legion from the defensive circle temporarily.

But the crisis has not been resolved, even if Emperor Shi Tian desperately ordered to speed up, the bloated and huge team could not speed up at all, and it was very good to be able to walk seventy or eighty kilometers a day.

And although the Demon Legion is temporarily unable to attack, it is absolutely impossible for these cunning guys to easily let go of the fat of Emperor Shitian.

They then changed their strategy, no longer approaching Emperor Shitian's main army easily, but followed closely on the flank, maintaining a parallel pursuit.

At the same time, the follow-up reinforcements of the Demon Legion were also arriving in a steady stream, and within a day, the Demon Legion on the left and right sides of Emperor Shi Tian would swell by a point.

Not only is the number of cannon fodder increasing, but the most important thing is that the number of high-level demons is also growing.

With the passage of time, once the overall strength of the demon legion surpasses that of Emperor Shitian's side, I am afraid that it will soon launch a counterattack, and when the time comes, it will be able to directly cut off the army of Emperor Shitian, which is suffering from the enemy, and then divide and surround it, and then I am afraid that it will be completely annihilated.
