Chapter 245
Pah pah pah——
A crackling sound was heard, and those small black tumors exploded one after another. Streams of black juice splashed out and flowed on the transparent protective shield, making a continuous sizzling corrosion sound.
There were constant screams from the soldiers.
Not all legions have defensive skills, and even if they do, they may not be able to withstand this highly corrosive liquid.
The black liquid quickly fell on the city wall, which flashed a faint white light and was not damaged.
The catapult not far behind also began to show its power, and stones as big as millstones were continuously thrown out.
Those gray-white big mushrooms moved very slowly. Facing these huge rocks falling from the sky, they had no power to resist. Each huge rock could carry away many big mushrooms. After a round of catapults, all the big mushrooms were killed or injured, and the bone-spurred wild boar was also seriously injured.
The shield formation time was over, and the stench of the black liquid strongly impacted everyone's sense of smell. Cheng Hui closed his sense of smell the moment he noticed it, but the rest of the people were more unlucky. Their faces turned pale from the stench, and some even began to retch, unable to hold their weapons.
"Be careful! The devil is coming!" someone warned loudly.
Cheng Hui took a step forward and saw that below the parapet, the ladder built by the little demons had taken shape, and a large number of demons were climbing up the ladder.
A large amount of boiling oil was poured in and set on fire... Countless demons died in the fire, but more demons immediately rushed up.
The dark mass of demons seemed endless, and the soldiers on the city wall soon fell into a numb attack.
The sky was covered with dark clouds and it was so gloomy that the sun could not be seen.
A large number of mechanical weapons were pushed up, and sharpened wooden stakes were fired as arrows, each of which had impressive results.
No demon could stop this huge siege weapon, and every arrow would kill a large number of demons.
"roar!"
Soon, the frustrated demons sent out a large number of giant demons. These demons were more than ten meters tall, with dark bodies and strong muscles. They had two horns on their heads whose facial features could not be seen clearly. They were extremely strong and not slow in speed. Once they rushed to the city wall, they could quickly climb to the top of the wall along the human ladder built by the small demons.
Each of these horned demons is extremely powerful. Once they occupy the top of the wall, they will gather in groups of three or five. If they are not eliminated as quickly as possible, a large number of demons will soon follow and force the soldiers on the wall to engage in hand-to-hand combat with them.
"Kill them!" the bald instructor roared.
The archers quickly drew their bows and concentrated their arrows to attack the horned demons.
Unfortunately, these horned demons have thick skin and are difficult to break through. Ordinary arrows cannot even scratch their oily skin.
"Wei Yuanzhou! Kill those guys for me!"
"I obey your orders!"
"Archers!" Wei Yuanzhou wiped the sweat off his face and shouted, "Rainbow piercing the sun!"
The shadow of a white wolf appeared again above the heads of hundreds of archers. The white wolf raised its head high and let out a deafening howl.
The bows and arrows in the engineers' hands twisted upward uncontrollably, and everyone's arrows seemed to be concentrated in one place, suddenly shooting out -
A thick beam of light shot out and directly hit a tall horned demon, then exploded into several white lights and landed on three nearby horned demons.
The horned demon agent who was hit head-on had his chest completely pierced on the spot, leaving only a hole as big as a wheel.
The other three horned demons suffered a similar fate, except that the holes in their chests were relatively smaller.
"Well done!" Cheng Hui said excitedly.
Wei Yuanzhou was also very satisfied with his attack.
"Don't be happy too soon! Watch out! They are coming!" the bald man reminded.
Only then did Cheng Hui realize that although the many legions on the wall had launched an attack, they were not able to completely stop the horned demons. Many of them had rushed to the foot of the wall, and some had even climbed up the wall.
Cheng Hui's eyes flickered as he immediately observed his surroundings. The Guangping Army, with its two inspiring commanders, Zheng Kai and Wei Yuanzhou, had surpassed several nearby defense zones in average strength.
In the front position of their legion, the number of various demons that can rush to the city wall is limited. The majority are small inferior demons, but the biggest weakness of small inferior demons is their lack of strength. With long "wooden warehouse" soldiers guarding the battlements, it is difficult for them to climb up.
In contrast, the strength of several surrounding defense zones was obviously slightly inferior to theirs, which made their defense zone very unstable. There were even many demons who could not squeeze in and transferred to Cheng Hui's defense zone, adding a lot of burden to him.
But even so, Cheng Hui's defense zone on the left was already somewhat shaky. The soldiers sent by Xiling Kingdom performed very poorly on the battlefield. In such a short while, they had lost nearly half of their men. The remaining half were pale and had dull eyes, as if they would collapse at any time.
Cheng Hui's eyebrows were knotted as he watched. It was impossible for their rotation tasks to be rotated during the war. In other words, even if the Xiling Kingdom's troops were defeated by the demons, it would be impossible to immediately send another team to take over. Instead, they could only provide support from the defense zones on both sides.
This means that once they fail, Cheng Hui will have to take over at least half of the defense zone. If the neighbor next door does not have extra energy, then he will have to rely on this small number of Guangping troops to defend two defense zones.
Cheng Hui was a little unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could only hope that this team would not collapse so quickly, and at least hold on until the end of this attack. In this way, other legions would come up to replace them.
Unfortunately... In this world, the more you don't think about something, the more it will come to you.
What Cheng Hui was worried about came true.
With a loud bang, Cheng Hui turned his head suddenly and saw a tall horned demon standing on the city wall of Xilingguo Army.
Although the horned demon was driven away under the leadership of the commander of the Xiling Army, more horned demons soon climbed up.
Cheng Hui closed his eyes tightly, then opened them tightly again.
The people next door couldn't hold out any longer. If he didn't want to wait for those soldiers to be killed and then more demons to surge up along the city wall, he had to take over the defense zone over there immediately.
He took a look at his own defense zone. The soldiers performed very stably. His two months of miscellaneous training were not completely in vain. At least with his two months as a foundation, these people could receive training from the instructors more quickly in the Blood Battle City.
"Zheng Kai!" Cheng Hui roared.
"I'm here!" Zheng Kai immediately squeezed through the crowd. His face was covered in blood and his arm was injured, but fortunately the injury was not serious.
"Come with me and help them."
Zheng Kai glanced towards the next room, nodded vigorously, and followed with two captains of the "Mu Cang" soldiers.
Cheng Hui glanced over there again. The army of Xiling Kingdom had completely collapsed. The main general was seriously injured, and his deputy general was trying to drag him to the open space in the back to facilitate rescue by paramedics.
The remaining soldiers were also trying their best to stop the two horned demons that had already rushed to the top of the wall. It could be seen that they were really trying their best, but sometimes, some gaps could not be made up by trying hard.
"Get out of the way!" Cheng Hui yelled and jumped up on his toes.
He stepped on the shoulders of several soldiers in succession and even jumped over their heads when they hardly noticed.
Zheng Kai led his soldiers and slowly squeezed over there. Now the city wall was full of people, and it would take some time to squeeze through.
Cheng Hui knew that he couldn't delay any longer, so he simply jumped over there using his own method.
As soon as he passed by, he leaped up and slashed the long knife in his hand at one of the horned demons.
"Tie him up!" A captain noticed Cheng Hui's attack, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stopped the soldiers from firmly controlling the horned demon.
Cheng Hui's heart moved, his lips slightly opened, and a tiny, inconspicuous flame instantly attached to the blade.
The long knife chopped into the horned demon's head, and the blade cut through it very smoothly like cutting butter, splitting the horned demon into two.
The expression on the horned demon's face was still frozen in astonishment, as if it couldn't understand how its thick and tough skin could not block a long sword?
"Thank you, Commander!" The captain seemed to be the person with the highest official title here, and he was very perceptive. He could tell at a glance that Cheng Hui was the commander of the team next door.
"No need to be polite." Cheng Hui waved his hand, "Drive the horned demon off the city wall first!"
"I obey your command!" The captain also knew that Cheng Hui's words were mature, so he swallowed all the words in his heart and immediately organized soldiers to besiege the remaining horned demons.
Cheng Hui dispatched the horned demon with a single blow, feeling quite good. The horned demon, so impenetrable to arrows, was chopped in two by the long sword imbued with the crimson lotus fire. This effect was more invigorating than anything else.
Look, after that one strike of his sword, these soldiers who should have collapsed actually felt a desire to survive.
No matter what, it's a good thing to have a desire to survive.
He stood in front of the horned demons, wielding his long sword with great force, and soon killed the second horned demon. At this time, Zheng Kai finally squeezed out of the crowd. They immediately replaced the soldiers who were almost collapsed, blocked the top of the wall, and successfully forced down several horned demons that tried to climb up the wall again.
"Attention! There are changes in the demon's charge." Zheng Kai reminded.
Cheng Hui looked up and saw that many demons with fox faces and human bodies had appeared on the battlefield at some point.
They looked like upright foxes, but their limbs were similar to those of humans. They stood in groups of three or four, facing the city wall, raised their hands, and muttered to themselves.
Cheng Hui: …???
What? Are you going to use magic?
Magic and the like are of course just a joke, but looking at the looks of those fox-masked men, it seems they are about to use some powerful moves.
Soon, he witnessed the power of these fox-masked men. As they chanted something, those little demons suddenly began to swell up one by one, swelling to the height of ordinary humans.
Not to mention those horned demons, who were already very tall, and now they are like giants, more than double their height.
Their eyes were red, saliva was flowing from the corners of their mouths, and their attacks were quite crazy, as if they were hurting the enemy by 800 and themselves by 1,000.
Cheng Hui was completely stunned. It turned out that these fox-masked men were the assistants of the demon?
There are already enough demons, and their attack power is very strong. Add to that the support of these fox-masked men, and my god... is this going to be heaven-shattering! ?
Cheng Hui secretly groaned in his heart. Once those fox-masked men used their magic, the pressure on his side increased instantly.
The defense line, which was almost stabilizing, continued to retreat under the attacks of these crazy little demons.
Xiling Jun could no longer be relied upon, so Cheng Hui had to go on his own. Relying on the long sword that was attached to the red lotus karma fire, he managed to kill the little evil demon that climbed up the wall three times.
So much so that the little evil demons later on, even with their eyes red, could not help but dodge to the sides when they saw him rushing towards them, which shows how big a psychological trauma he had left.
