The giant Arhat crossed his arms and blocked the spear that Gao Chong was throwing. In an instant, the demon generals on his body rolled off one after another. But another giant Arhat quietly approached Gao Chong from behind and punched the enlarged version of Gao Chong in the abdomen and back.
"Crack...!" Several more axes shattered, but Gao Chong stood firmly in place without wavering. He quickly pulled his spear back, and the sharp spearhead pierced the chest and abdomen of the giant Arhat who had launched the sneak attack, causing the Arhat to undergo a dramatic weight loss.
At this moment, the third giant Arhat joined the attack on Gao Chong from the side.
At this moment, the remaining axes and shields on the city wall continued to shoot out golden threads that connected with Gao Chong's spear, just like a source of power. As long as the golden threads remained, the enlarged version of Gao Chong was almost invulnerable to blades and spears. No matter what kind of attack he suffered, he did not even move his position slightly.
The giant Arhats were too large to maintain a high attack range on three Arhats at the same time, while the other giant Arhats turned their attacks to the shields and axes on the walls of Gale Fortress. They swung their fists and hammered the surface of the shields and axes, causing the entire Gale Fortress to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.
The golden light on the surface of the axe and shield rippled like water with each heavy blow from the Arhats, and a piece would occasionally break off.
Another giant Arhat was destroyed by Gao Chong, and the corpses of the demon generals on the ground were kicked around by another giant Arhat who came in as a replacement. However, before the newly joined giant Arhat could find Gao Chong, Gao Chong suddenly shrank down and hid in the flying group of demon general corpses.
He suddenly regained his original physique.
At the same time, the golden thread connecting his spear also disappeared instantly. This was extremely abrupt, and the several giant Arhats surrounding him were somewhat stunned. Gao Chong's figure had already flashed out of the giant Arhats' encirclement, and his spear pierced through, taking down several demon general corpses.
As soon as the golden thread broke, the remaining axes and shields on the walls of Gale Fortress spewed out golden beams of light as thick as bowls, like cannons. As long as they hit the giant Arhat, several demon generals would fall to the ground.
Meanwhile, arrows, rocket launchers, heavy machine guns, and other equipment from the city tower, resembling those found in military camps, were unleashed like a sudden downpour the moment Gao Chong flew away. The five-colored light trailing behind them struck the eight giant Arhats gathered by the city wall, causing the demon generals on their bodies to tumble off like beads.
Gao Chong, who had broken through the encirclement, did not stray far from Gale Fortress. He nimbly moved among the giant Arhats, precisely navigating the gaps in the five-colored light cascading from the city walls to relentlessly attack. He also took away quite a few demon generals; the eight giant Arhats visibly shrunk in size.
At the same time, the weapons on the walls of Galewind Fortress were crumbling one after another. Some Arhats had already begun to directly attack the walls of Galewind Fortress. Their bodies leaned over the top of the walls, and their huge palms slammed down heavily on the divine soldiers and generals on the walls. Kou Cheng hurriedly pulled Wang Yao away to dodge.
Without the protection of the shield and axe, a thin red light shield rose up on the city wall, blocking the Arhat's palm and preventing it from landing directly on the wall. However, as the Arhats continued their attacks, the red light shield gradually dimmed, as if it would disappear at any moment.
A huge, serpentine crack twisted and climbed up the walls of Gale Keep.
The giant Arhat, no longer human and unable to launch an effective attack, staggered back to the other side of the moat. Meanwhile, the demon army on the other side formed ten more giant Arhats from thousands of demon generals, brushed past the retreating, dilapidated Arhats, and swayed as they crossed the river.
Wang Yao discovered that with the emergence of this second batch of ten giant Arhats, the decline of the demon army finally became apparent.
The dark clouds could no longer block out the sunlight, and the area they covered shrank drastically. Moreover, there were signs of attacks from the divine army on three sides behind the demon army. Wang Yao estimated that they were the divine army that had withdrawn from several outer defense lines to defend against Gale Fortress.
The overall battle situation was becoming increasingly favorable to the Protoss, but the battle in front of Gale Keep was still far from optimistic. Of the hundreds of axes that once stood on the walls of Gale Keep, only a few pieces remained, hanging mottled and forlorn on the walls.
Gao Chong chased after the last giant Arhat statue, which had lost both arms and had a huge hole in its chest, until he reached the moat before stopping.
He watched as a new batch of giant Arhats slowly emerged from the demon army's camp, slammed his gun into the ground, and laughed heartily with his head tilted back.
"You little devils, isn't there a single real demon among you who dares to come out and have a good fight with your grandpa? Always causing this disgusting trouble, you're making your grandpa look down on you!" Gao Chong shouted and cursed.
The demons ignored Gao Chong's clamor. The ten giant Arhats silently approached Gale Fortress step by step. At the same time, the gate of Gale Fortress suddenly creaked open, and large groups of divine soldiers and generals poured out of the fortress.
Some of them went directly to Gao Chong's side, while others took to the sky after leaving the fortress. Before long, two divine armies, no weaker than the demons on the other side, formed on the ground and in the air in front of Gale Fortress.
The gates remained open, and divine soldiers and generals continued to pour out of the fortress, while the sound of war drums suddenly rang out from the divine army flying in the air.
After a burst of rapid drumbeats, the large number of divine soldiers and generals in the air ignored the Arhats on the ground and charged straight towards the demon army. The counterattack had finally begun.
On the ground, the divine army was led by hundreds of divine generals, who drew their bows and fired arrows in rapid succession at the giant Arhat who was about to cross the moat. Behind them, the divine soldiers hastily set up equipment such as multi-barreled rocket launchers and heavy machine guns.
Seeing that these pieces of equipment all had long divine power leads trailing behind them, Wang Yao knew that they should have been properly tested inside the fortress and were only brought out to shorten their range. As soon as many pieces of equipment landed, they immediately emitted brilliant light that shot towards the giant Arhat.
