Chapter 291 290. The Advantage is in Me
Bang——!
Several invisible self-destructive puffs finally found a gap and pounced on several half-demon warriors on the periphery.
Ice chips flew everywhere, and the broken figure was thrown into the air.
The limited number of scouts with anti-stealth capabilities was simply not enough to cover the entire exhausted team.
Bastardos watched this scene helplessly, but there was nothing he could do.
Ever since the baggage train was "sneak attacked", the demons suddenly showed their fangs and made up for all the harassment they had lacked in the past few days!
It greatly delayed the advance.
All the wood used for heating disappeared inexplicably overnight, and no trace was found!
The night watchmen had not been attacked, there were no strange footprints nearby, and it wasn't even an aerial attack.
So much wood and food just disappeared silently in the tent like magic!
The only thing that could be called "lucky" was that half of the food was left.
The source of this "luck" was ridiculously due to two half-demons who stole food from the supply tent - they sneaked into the baggage tent all night and feasted on it. Their frequent ins and outs accidentally saved this part of the rations.
Now, this only remaining food is under strict guard and dares not leave the sight of the half-demons for a moment.
The reason why he hasn't withdrawn his troops is not because he doesn't want to, but because he can't.
Among these, even the insistence of the imperial envoy Pine was not the main reason.
The real reason why he decided to fight to the death was that in his current position, even if he retreated, he would have to endure the cold for several days, resulting in a large number of casualties.
Instead of doing this, it is better to go all out, capture the demon's lair, and use their resources to survive!
but……
Bang——!
Another explosion sounded on the flank, setting off a chaotic cry of surprise.
What is going on with these controlled monsters?
There are too many of them, can't they all die?!
Could it be that the demons intend to concentrate their strength to defeat me first?
Logically speaking, the Lizardmen are fewer in number, so we should deal with them first, right?
However, he didn't know that the Lizardmen group that was marching with difficulty at a distance was in an even more miserable situation than theirs.
Chief Tak's baggage train didn't even have half of the "lucky" food left.
Tucker even suspected that there was a mole, and angrily captured several guards and tortured them, but found nothing.
Due to Puji's endless harassment, both teams failed to reach the Demonic Tribe within the expected time.
Even at night, the sound of Puji's self-explosion never stopped.
It was not until noon the next day that the two hungry and exhausted armies, who had been tortured by the severe cold and the self-explosion all night, finally dragged their heavy steps and saw their target in the distance.
The Demonic Tribe... Tribe... Fortress?
On the high city walls, one can vaguely see the crowds of demons, mixed with many Puji figures.
At the highest point, there stood a Puji wearing a red cape, which was very strange.
There were several pipes mounted on the city wall, probably something like a crossbow.
The demons actually built a castle here? !
Attacking a tribe and attacking a castle are completely different concepts.
Not to mention that his men had already suffered all day and their fighting capacity had been greatly reduced due to the severe cold.
It seems... we can only rely on the strong to break through first.
"Gurgle... uh ho ho..."
Suddenly, a strange, sticky sound that made one's teeth ache came from the city wall, as if sticky liquid was rolling in a rotten throat.
This voice had a kind of penetrating power like spiritual pollution. No matter whether it was the exhausted half-demons and lizardmen below or the demon descendants on the city wall, they all shuddered involuntarily, and a chill rushed to their foreheads.
"Reptiles... and... bastards!" The voice was as clear as a blunt knife scraping bone, echoing across the battlefield. "You are surrounded! Turn your back now, lay down your armor, and surrender politely, and you will still retain your position as clan leader!"
The disgusting sound spread out, and many soldiers who were already in low spirits vomited on the spot.
He talked about persuading them to surrender, but called them reptiles and bastards. Even the hunter next to him didn't think that the boss was really persuading them to surrender, let alone the two groups below.
Being so bluntly despised, the two groups immediately exploded.
The lizardman leader Tucker's blood-red pupils shrank instantly, and the flames of rage almost burst out. He took a step forward, pointing his rough claws at the top of the city wall:
"You bastards! You keep using these despicable tricks to disgust me!" He turned around suddenly and roared at the group of hungry men behind him with green eyes, "Kill them all! Today, I'll let you taste what the flesh of the demon is like!"
In the team, Gray, who was also a demon, glanced at him unhappily, but he just endured it at this time.
"Ah..." The voice on the city wall seemed to carry a hint of regret, and the stickiness was even stronger. "It's a bit harsh... but I'm really doing this for your own good. Since... you don't appreciate it..."
"Then die! Reptile!"
A huge amount of magic power gathered on the top of the city wall. Beside Tucker, an old lizardman wizard was the first to notice this strange magic power and widened his eyes.
His bony hands tightly gripped the staff, his voice cracking with fear and urgency: "Chief!! Get out of the way--!"
He almost pounced forward, using all his strength to hold the staff across in front of Tucker, and a thick magic barrier instantly opened in front of the old wizard.
The next moment, more than a dozen huge balls of magical light, condensed to the point of being dazzling, shot out from the city wall like falling comets!
They covered the area where Tucker and the old wizard were, and the violent energy completely locked the two of them and the space of several feet around them!
The deafening explosion shook the ice field, and the violent energy impact kicked up large pieces of ice and soil, forming a chaotic white mist.
When the icy dust slowly dissipated, a devastating deep pit was revealed.
Tucker, the old lizardman, two diamond-level warriors and a dozen lizardman warriors disappeared just like that, leaving only some scraps of meat that could not be identified.
Gulu——
Gray looked at the crater so close to him, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, half of it sliding down and solidifying into ice.
No wonder Gallon got into trouble!
If someone were to be tricked like that, even that Gallon would be crippled if not dead!
What kind of terrifying magical weapon is this? !
In other directions, whether it was Yuniel, Pine, or Bastardos, these palace-level powerhouses also had solemn expressions. The destructive energy that erupted in an instant made even them feel a fatal threat!
“Let me ask you again now, you…”
Lin Jun wanted to say something, but the others didn't give him a chance.
"Charge! Destroy those magic props!" Bastardos shouted loudly.
Even the lizardmen, under the guidance of Gray and Yuniel, shouted, "Revenge for the chief!"
"Well, if you don't surrender, forget it!"
Lin Jun was actually expecting a single shot to decide the outcome.
"But you don't really think that when I say you're surrounded, I'm just bluffing, do you?" Lin Jun paused. "This isn't two thousand against three hundred..."
Puff! Puff! Puff—!!!
The seemingly flat ice surface around the battlefield suddenly surged, and countless well-camouflaged nets were pushed open!
Deep underground, densely packed, countless white puffs rushed out from every possible gap in all directions!
In an instant, it filled the edge of the field of vision, forming a white ring of death, which stopped the tribal coalition forces that had rushed halfway.
"Instead, it's eight thousand versus two thousand! The advantage is mine!"
