Chapter 580: 578: The Castle Falls, Fighting the Prince Again (Two in One)

Even though this is the bottomless abyss, it still has to conform to some basic rules. For example, there is a limit to the number of demons that an area can accommodate.

There were so many of them that there wasn’t enough food for them to eat, so they had to kill each other and keep cutting them off.

The number is too small, so naturally the tributaries of the Styx will distribute the soul fragments, giving birth to more demon worms.

Moreover, with sufficient food, the desire to kill is reduced, which is naturally conducive to the growth of demons and thus increases their numbers.

Of course, it’s not just the low- and middle-level demons. Higher up, the secondary demon lords and the real demon lords all need a territory to support them.

For three days, Loyi fought a tough defensive counterattack, using the Abyss Frontier War Base to consume the troops under the command of the Blood Prince.

Although it was a high price to pay, the endless bombardment resulted in the death of ten or a hundred times more demons.

Even now, wherever you look, there are still a lot of demons. Even though most of the remaining ones are mid-to-high-level demons, there is no longer that overwhelming feeling.

Even after the death of five lesser demon lords, these middle and high-level demons have become hesitant and timid.

For three days, the Blood Prince was here and didn't even have the chance to contact other demon lords, let alone call for help.

So, this is the best time to fight back.

Therefore, Luo Yi gave the order to take the initiative to attack without hesitation.

The third-generation magic tank was the first to start. Its tracks ignored the trenches and fortifications, and after running at full speed, it rushed out directly.

Under Deep Blue's command, they formed a standard wedge formation at an extremely fast speed.

The first row consisted of thirty tanks, 200 meters apart, distributed within five or six kilometers of the battlefield.

The second row is staggered by about 20 meters, and the third row is staggered again and again until the depth reaches five kilometers.

In this way, the firing range between tanks will not be blocked, and there will not even be any analysis, which can maximize the cluster charge effect of the king of land warfare.

They violently smashed the pile of demon corpses, rolled over the scorched earth and flesh, and rushed forward like a torrent of steel.

Even the demons of the abyss felt a clear fear at this moment, but under the urging of the demon warlord, they had to launch an attack.

Some demons began to cast spells, including fire, ice, earth spikes, and strong winds, with many types.

Some used various negative spells, such as fear spell, shock spell, weakness spell, aging spell, and various curse spells like scattered heavy rain.

Others directly launched a flash, brandishing heavy weapons, attempting to attack at close range.

However, they were faced with round after round of main gun fire while running at high speed.

Under Deep Blue's precise control, the volley fire in motion was more accurate than one could imagine.

One shell after another was fired, approaching the demon with terrifying kinetic energy. After exploding in the air, countless fragments shot out, raising a cloud of blood mist.

Of course, demons are demons. They can fly, hide in the shadows, and turn into nothingness. With all these means, they have a great chance of avoiding the bombs.

Then, they would have to face a 60-ton steel monster, which would collide at a speed of 70 miles per hour. The huge kinetic energy could even crush any flesh and blood body.

That’s not to mention the two heavy machine guns firing at high speed, like two whips of death, waving and reaping lives.

The attacks of these demons, if they are less efficient, won't even hit the tanks.

Or, the double magic shield is fully activated, ignoring the damage directly.

Even if a mental spell is cast, it must first pass the infinite courage of the [Lion King] before it can have an effect.

Of course, as the king of land warfare, the enemies he has to deal with must be on land. If demons fly into the sky, they will have no useful means of attack.

But at this time, the second-generation fighter jets also passed through the space channel and entered the sky battlefield.

Although there is only a span of one generation, the gap between the two is incomparable. The terrible air shockwaves caused by hypersonic flight alone are extremely lethal.

Not to mention that with the magic shield, the body will no longer break at the slightest touch, and it can even perform some extraordinary air combat skills.

I don't know when it started, but these pilots behaved more extreme and crazy than the fighters.

If they can't kill the enemy with machine guns and close-range combat bullets, they will choose to fly at supersonic speeds and then maneuver and change trajectory...

As long as the speed is fast enough, the body itself is the sharpest sword, which can cut most flying demons into pieces.

The fighter plane itself, with its magical protection, has a high chance of surviving.

This is a life-threatening situation, but for the soldiers of Flower Territory, it is an honor to die bravely in battle.

It is also because fighter jets are faster, and their advance is even more ferocious than the third-generation king of land warfare, the tank!

After these two groups have passed, it will be the turn of the assault team led by Flowers!

They have also upgraded their weapons. Although they are called infantry, they no longer rely solely on their two legs.

The new heavy-duty personnel carrier carries them to be the final harvesters on the battlefield.

The fully armed elite soldiers, who have trained the hardest, can only do some supplementary shooting work at this time, which makes many soldiers feel suffocated.

But the veterans will tell them that the flowers are trained to enable them to achieve great things, not to sacrifice in vain on the battlefield.

Therefore, they should be brave when they should be brave; when they don’t need to fight desperately, they must learn to be cautious.

Of course, although the demon army is retreating, it doesn’t mean that they have no chance of counterattack!

The demon warlords organized counterattacks again and again in an attempt to curb the charge of the Guards.

As for the effects, there are of course some. The most amazing one was when four lesser demon lords jointly cast a spell to summon the forbidden black magic - the Scourge of Souls.

The souls of the demons that died in the battle were temporarily summoned, transformed into dead spirits, and began to wreak havoc on the battlefield.

They tried to penetrate the magic shield, enter the tank, and kill the driver.

Or use low-temperature ice spells to freeze the fragile parts inside the tank, causing the tank to malfunction and lose its maneuverability.

This magic alone paralyzed nearly one-third of the tanks and killed many tank soldiers.

It was Deep Blue who reacted extremely quickly and ordered the artillery in the rear to fire tracer bullets. The exploded Holy Sun hung in the air, and only then did these undead spirits be driven away.

There's no other way. This isn't the main material plane. Too many demons died in a short period of time, causing this 'Soul Disaster' to perform beyond its normal level.

However, there are extremely threatening counterattacks, and there are also funny ones.

For example, the demon warlords actually wanted to learn the tactics of the flower leader. They gathered a large number of spellcasting demons to the front line.

Then, under unified command, chanting, casting spells and long-range attacks were carried out.

Obviously, this was a tactic of imitating the artillery regiment's indiscriminate bombardment and artillery fire, but they obviously did not take the speed of the tanks into consideration.

All kinds of magic spells came crashing down, only creating ripples on the tank's shield, and then rushed past, causing almost no damage.

In fact, because the demons casting the spells are different, their spell attainments are different, and the amount of magic power they supply is different, there is a huge difference in the power and range of the spells.

The original intention was to concentrate fire on the attack, but it ended up being scattered and became a joke.

Therefore, there is a reason why the Mage Tower is accustomed to forming magic circles to summon more powerful magic instead of magic bombardment.

However, the devil's ridiculous arrangement gave Deep Blue an opportunity.

Under his command, a group of land kings went at full speed, overcame the damage of magic, and then rushed forward, bombarding with main guns, and really crushed a large number of demons to death.

However, the most dangerous time was when the enemy was at the gates and they were facing the castle of the vampire prince.

The power extracted from the underground magma, with the participation of divine power, supported a huge magic shield.

Under the cover of blood-red light, even the rounds of tank main gun bombardment seemed ineffective.

At this moment, the blood prince showed his fangs.

When the Royal Guards choose to attack, the Abyss Frontier War Base is at its most vulnerable.

He gathered the only four remaining secondary demon lords, as well as a large number of mid- and high-level demons who were good at flying and the 'anywhere door' spell, to carry out long-range strikes and implement decapitation tactics.

The goal is still the space channel!

It has to be said that facing the magic army and the steel behemoths, these demon lords seemed helpless.

Because they were unfamiliar with the situation, they couldn't even come up with any effective countermeasures, and many of their counterattacks seemed extremely immature.

However, thousands of years of war experience allowed him to quickly grasp the weaknesses of the human race.

However, what he could think of, Luo Yi naturally thought of as well. When this group of demons descended from the sky, they faced a new batch of bombardment from the King of Land Warfare.

Although these are all new recruits with insufficient training and combat experience, this does not prevent them from coordinating with the artillery positions and continuing their previous artillery fire tactics.

As for the four lesser demon lords, they were surrounded by legends that outnumbered them, and couldn't even reach the space channel.

It is worth mentioning that even at this point, Luo Yi still felt unsafe.

Therefore, he placed a team of church clergy around the space channel to form the Twelve Shining Suns Formation.

Although it is not as good as the legend of the church under the Holy Sun, the light that is brought in, shining on this abyss, is also extremely dangerous in causing damage to the demons.

This final counterattack was still broken up.

The lesser demon lords, all of whom had their true names known by the Blood Prince, had no choice but to fight to the death.

However, those middle and high-level demons were already frightened.

After being beaten back, they basically fled in all directions and headed for other demon territories.

In the Abyss, danger is everywhere, and changing to a demon leader is actually very dangerous.

Who knows, you might encounter some deadly and powerful creature on the road and get eaten by it.

Therefore, staying in a familiar environment is also one of the rules for demons to save their lives.

However, they were really scared of the battlefield at this moment and would rather take risks than face more terrifying steel monsters here.

In the distance, Luo Yi finally withdrew his gaze, a huge arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he looked at the blood prince with an extremely cold face.

"Caesar, Caesar, Lord of the Abyss, Prince of the Blood Clan, do you remember what you said when you left the demiplane?"

"You threaten me, how dare you threaten me?!"

"Now that I'm here, delivered to your door, do you dare to fight me with all your might?"

"This battle will not end until one dies!"

“The fight continues until death!!! The fight continues until death!!! The fight continues until death!!!”

Luo Yi's voice was earth-shaking, not only igniting his own will to fight, but also igniting the emotions of the entire guard.

Their cheers merged into a river, like golden threads of faith, flowing into Loyi's body.

[Lion King] maintains the extreme state, all faiths are collected and then filled into various holy skills.

At this moment, Luo Yi didn't care about the blood prince's opinion at all, and had no intention of listening to his nonsense. Instead, he slapped his ferocious dragon horns and rushed forward amid the dragon's roars.

The divine sword was swung, and a series of tearing dimensional slashes crisscrossed, as if to shatter the void.

The vampire prince no longer had the qualifications to avoid the battle. He gathered his blood-red divine power and with a casual move, he instantly cast a spell to anchor the space.

The space was in turmoil, and the Dimension Slash was completely calmed down.

Then, he lunged forward with his huge body, causing numerous folds of space to form. In an instant, he was in front of Luo Yi.

The sharp claws were waving, and the divine power was spreading. Under the five claw marks, the elements were squeezed, exploded, and spread outward, forming a mushroom cloud rising up.

The huge bodies of Luo Yi and the ancient red dragon seemed to be completely shattered under the pressure of the elements.

However, there was no blood or flesh scattered, only traces of time left, and figures appeared one after another.

It can be clearly seen that the ancient red dragon flapped its wings and disappeared with Luo Yi.

When it appeared again, it was above the head of the vampire prince.

Then, Luo Yi held up the artifact, condensed his fighting spirit, and actually appeared a Sky Holy Hammer burning with sacred flames.

The muscles all over his body moved rhythmically and gathered in his arms, becoming thicker and thicker, gathering unparalleled strength and smashing down on his head!

The blood prince reacted quickly, spreading his divine power and stretching the space, hoping that Luo Yi's hammer would hit the air.

His idea was achieved, however, Luo Yi directly hit the void, and with a bang, the space was shattered.

The spreading cracks were like spider webs, and even the body of a demigod could not withstand the shattering of space, leaving streaks of blood.

However, the blood prince was not someone to be trifled with. Even so, he waved his two bat wings, and streaks of blood-red light also cut into the red dragon's body.

The scales were broken, dragon blood splattered everywhere, and the ancient red dragon Virgil howled miserably, but he still opened his mouth and spit the original dragon breath directly onto the blood prince.

The blood prince charged forward and, relying on his greater tonnage, knocked the ancient red dragon away.

But before they separated, Luo Yi used the artifact to condense a holy light spear, and then threw it out with all his strength.

boom!

The next second, the two fighting parties separated completely.

The ancient red dragon's abdomen was covered with wounds, and its wings were cut with scars. The hot dragon blood dripped, burning bottomless holes in the ground!

However, Luo Yi's sacred dragon flame fighting spirit spread and sealed the wound, thus stopping the bleeding.

Of course, Luo Yi didn't feel well either. Not only did he have to help bear the damage, but he also felt a long-lost sense of emptiness.

Even with the angel ring on his head, this is the abyss. Due to the limitations of the environment, it is impossible to provide sufficient divine power like the main material plane.

And his attacks just now, though seemingly ordinary, were actually the peak output of his fighting spirit and sacred skills.

However, the blood prince was not in a much better condition at this time!

Half of the divine body was shattered by the shock, the bat wings were burned by dragon flames, and a holy light spear was stuck in the chest.

The divine power vibrated, and a ray of light fell, quickly healing the injuries. The effect was extremely good, and the patient could recover as before in an instant.

However, the Holy Light Spear was like a thorn, stuck there, forcing the Blood Prince to reach out and pull it out.

The fighting spirit was dissipated by the divine power, revealing the true form of the divine sword inside. The blood prince looked down, his face changed drastically, and he almost instinctively discarded it.

The artifacts of light have a strong restraint on the lords of the abyss and evil demigods like him. He even doesn't want to be contaminated by the scent of the rapier.

Luo Yi raised his hand and grasped it, the space twisted, and he pulled it out inch by inch, and the divine sword was already in his hand.

The two sides looked at each other, and sparks seemed to fly, and the void creaked due to the collision of their spirits.

Without any nonsense, both sides leaped forward, twisted the space, and fought again.

Seriously speaking, this was the fairest battle for both sides, with no one left behind and both sides able to display their best abilities.

The area where they fought had been twisted into a black hole of space.

There was no sound, and no movement could be seen. All mortals could see were two shadows that covered the sky, constantly colliding, separating, and then continuing to collide...

However, the aftermath from the outside world is getting bigger and bigger, and the impact of the elements is like a tsunami, constantly spreading outward.

Circle after circle of spatial turbulence seems to be endless.

The distance between them was getting higher and higher, as if they wanted to break out of the limitations of the plane and fight their way into the star realm.

Below, the Flower Lord’s guards were also busy.

Three generations of magic tanks were lined up side by side, firing all kinds of high-powered armor-piercing shells without spending any money, just to destroy the castle of the vampire prince.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

At the order of temporary commander Alfonso Zec, heavy field artillery was pulled out and positions were established outside the castle again.

By the time they were finished, another day had passed, but it was clear that the artillery was professional when it came to bombardment.

Under the guidance of the legendary wizard Venus, they even determined the flow pattern of magic power in the ancient castle's magic circle and formulated a strategy of firing one shot in the east and concentrating fire in the west.

To put it simply, in order to ensure defensive capabilities, the magic circle of this castle will allocate more magic power to areas that are more attacked.

By doing this, even if some areas reach their limit, they can still maintain the shield due to more magic support.

However, there is a disadvantage to this situation, which is that it takes time to mobilize and flow magic power.

Therefore, if we attack the east in this round and let the magic power gather in the east, the protective power of the shield in the west will be reduced.

At this time, if we attack the west, if the upper limit is exceeded and the magic power cannot flow back in time, the defensive formation will be broken.

Of course, if it is not broken, then follow the previous steps and do it a few more times and it will be effective.

As soon as this method was used, the Blood Clan Castle panicked.

Those demons fled and scattered, but the vampires of the abyss couldn't escape!

They attacked several times in an attempt to disrupt the arrangement, but were eventually repelled.

In this way, the bombardment continued for two days and two nights, almost without stopping. Finally, cracks appeared all over the large magic circle above the castle.

At some point,

With a loud bang, the shield shattered and countless Abyss vampires fled in all directions.

They were bombarded head-on by artillery shells, resulting in countless casualties.

At this time, a huge sun fell from the sky.

With a loud bang, it hit the ground and even caused an earthquake like water waves.

When the smoke and dust cleared, one could see the ancient red dragon's massive body embedded in the deep pit, its body covered in wounds.

The ferocious dragon head tried to raise itself, but after trying several times, it became limp again.

Luo Yi was covered in wounds and was coughing up blood.

Visible to the naked eye, there were fragments of internal organs in the blood.

However, relying on his tenacious perseverance, he stood up tremblingly, pointing the artifact in his hand at the sky.

At this time, above the sky, the clouds and fog cleared, and a huge blood-red figure as big as an island could be seen floating in the air.

What was even more shocking was that the figure was split into two, and a fierce flame was burning at the wound, which could not be shaken off.

The next second, the huge figure collapsed, with stars scattered, but a lot of blood light condensed and tried to piece together the figure of the blood prince.

Then, the figure, trailing a trail of blood, went away into the distance.

But Loyi was not happy. He yelled, "Caesar, Caesar, don't run away!"

"I told you, we'll fight to the death!"

As a result, the blood-red figure fled faster, even giving up a lot of blood.

And the scattered blood light all turned into crystals of divine power!

Although the vampire prince, the Lord of the Abyss, was not killed in this battle, there is no doubt that Luo Yi won!
