Chapter 170 Strange withdrawal of troops
Cold sweat fell down his chin on the ground.
All the elves stationed on the city walls felt that they were in the extremely cold hell, and even the sun in the sky could not bring them a trace of warmth.
Although Carter, as the backbone, still had a solemn and firm look on the surface, the figure on the surface made Carter feel a strong fear deep in his heart. It was a sense of fear of death from the depths of his subconscious mind, as if this body was urging him to escape soon.
[Leave everyone behind! It’s not a person from this world, why do you have to fight so hard? As long as you run away with all your might, no one will know. People here will die, no one will know...]
He had countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and the most he thought was to escape.
In Carter's eyes, the third-level terror-torture demon was so powerful...
The chaotic energy in the body seemed to be overflowing in the next second. Just the momentum that walked to the center of the battlefield made the elves almost breathless.
This is a kind of fear of instinctiveness about powerful beings, and the elves thought they had overcome them long ago.
"Just a demon..."
The arrogant people who are usually disdainful of other races, now they say this kind of words full of a stubborn mouth, and they no longer have the strong confidence that they take for granted.
"What are you doing while standing there! The targeted giant demon, the crossbow cannon uses magic explosion arrows to fire!"
"yes!"
With the angrily shouted by a senior officer, the engineers who were stunned in the place immediately operated the crossbow and adjusted the parameters in a few seconds.
"bouncing!"
After the familiar sound of slack strings, more than a dozen thick crossbow arrows tied with detonation talismans flew towards the terror and the demons. For a moment, all the elves focused on the crossbow arrows.
"Um?"
The big face of the terror-torture demon showed a puzzled expression, staring at the flying crossbow arrows with strange eyes, as if thinking about why the elves used this kind of thing to deal with him.
The crossbow arrow spans a distance of hundreds of meters, which only takes a few seconds. For ordinary people, this is definitely short enough for a terror-torture demon, this period is enough for it to kill the enemy several times. Facing the explosive crossbow arrow that is burning on its tail, it just gently raised its right arm, then waved it in front of itself, and gently let out a "kick..."
An incredible scene appeared, and a vacuum belt appeared in front of his fist, an isolation belt formed by fist wind.
The moment the crossbow arrow came to the vacuum belt, it bounced out dozens of meters and fell weakly to the ground. The detonation talisman on the crossbow arrow was easily extinguished.
The unwilling engineers fired several rounds of fire and shot in a staggered manner, but the terror-tortured demon whose fists can produce wind is almost completely immune to this physically ranged attack.
The great demon who came out of the Demon Lord alone was obviously planning to take the stage in person.
The terror demon who raised his arm stretched out a finger and pointed at the Star Fortress of the First Corps.
This scene made most of the elves confused the situation at the first time. Only a few people, including Carter, understood that the other party was asking for a duel.
The object is self-evident. As the leader of the terror army in the distance, it must have wanted to challenge the leader of the elves.
The defeat of his subordinates disappointed him. Not only did he lead the troops out this time, but he also lost a lot of manpower, which made the demon not intend to continue playing.
Carter, who clearly felt the other person's eyes on him, had cold sweats even faster, and the blonde hair tied into braids under his helmet was soaked.
Although Carter did not know which level the terror-torture demon in front of him was, judging from the aura and strength emitted by the opponent, it was not comparable to the Slaaneism demon I encountered before. Starting at the lowest level four, it is likely to reach the third level.
How powerful is the third-level terror torture demon?
In this era when the magic wind is extremely abundant and there are no large vortex checks and balances, these demons projected into the real world can almost exert 70% of their strength in subspace.
Although I don't know its name, based on the performance of Kabanha of the same level of great demon at the end of seven thousand years, judging by Kabanha, it is definitely not something Carter can compete with now.
Those legendary heroes who were finally given the magic wind could not win in any freshman year.
And even so, Kabanha is still not the strongest first-tier terrorist terror and tyrant, because it appears at the end to obtain enough flesh and blood to sacrifice to the Blood God and advance to the ranks of the second-level great demon. The unknown third-level terror and tyrant in front of him may not have such strong strength, but Carter, who is a little confused, will never think he has a chance to win.
This is not because he declined before the battle, but because the difference in absolute strength between the two sides is too big. Now he is like a player with only level 30 and some special means. He directly faces a boss of level 80. The difference between level 50 is definitely not something that can be ignored by taking advantage of tricks.
[What should I do... I can't fight, and I don't have to make excuses without raising the morale of the army. I don't want to die! This is not an opponent that ordinary people can deal with! Just rely on the city wall to defend the enemy, and cooperate with the mage, the dragon prince and the dragon to find a way to repel him...]
Carter, who was up and down, kept thinking about countermeasures and also considered how to speak out and refuse duels to avoid a blow to the morale of the army.
[******, why do intelligent creatures in this world like the tone of single-handed duels? Isn’t it a search for death duels with these great demons?]
Carter, who was cursing in his heart, completely forgot at this moment. In fact, duels are beneficial to order and order. If he does not rely on single-handed and other means to quickly solve the leader of the Chaos Army, causing the Chaos Legion to lose its commander, but instead adopts conventional combat methods, the mortals will not be able to consume a continuous Chaos Army at all.
If the Chaos Square is amazing, open a few more portals connecting subspaces. There are cannon fodders in line to fight conventional wars with you. As long as the magic wind is not exhausted, they can continue to fight.
If the total amount of magic winds was not limited, which always restricted the demons and made them unable to create projections as they wished to come to the present world, the world would have been destroyed by them long ago.
"boom!"
Just as Carter was hesitating, the terror-tortured demon might have been impatient and suddenly waved his fist and punched the ground.
The great demon, who has unparalleled power, caused a small earthquake-like movement with just one punch. In Carter's eyes, its expression seemed to be saying: "If you don't come out again, I will go over and kill your subordinates."
The great demon who wants to enjoy the battle rather than unilaterally slaughtered is not very interested in ordinary elves. Whether it is the Sky Eagle Team, the main legion or the auxiliary army, it is all mixed fish in its eyes.
……………………
Why is Chaos obsessed with sending its believers to actively invade this world? For the land, it means turning everything into its own property as much as possible. The ultimate goal is to drag the planet into the realm of Chaos and make it a territory under the evil god of Chaos. Destruction is just a result that will inevitably occur in this process.
But the natives who are unwilling to be destroyed will never give up easily.
Just as Carter was about to speak, the silent dragon roar in the sky sounded again.
"How many filthy things have been accumulated to give birth to such evil! Philip, Oloheth, Matilda, let's go together!"
The Star Dragon falling from the sky with its powerful aura turned towards the great demon, followed by three slightly weaker adult dragons and young dragons.
The dragon breath came as promised, and the breath composed of four magic and flames instantly enveloped the huge terror-torture demon.
The violent high temperature even distorts the air, which is the refractive effect of light produced by excessive temperatures.
“lucertore!!”
Bastilton, who was riding while circling the flying dragon's back, heard the sound coming from the center of the flame.
The next moment, the great demon, wrapped in chaos energy, flew out of the flame without any injuries, and rushed towards the Dragon Prince with a blade of hell.
Bastilton, who had quick eyes and hands, had a heart-to-heart communication with his dragon, immediately made an evasion move.
Although it is one of the strongest sky species, it still suffers a lot when facing this humanoid flying unit.
Taking advantage of the fact that the terror was attracted by the Yaoxing Dragon and Bastildeon, the remaining three giant dragons launched a breath attack on it again.
The dragons who had just experienced the battle generally used double-digit breathing. After thousands of years, there should be no energy to continue fighting and breathing.
However, although the rich magic winds provide convenience for the arrival of demons, they also make the dragon, which uses magic winds as the basic energy, have super strong continuous combat capabilities.
Once again, he resisted the great demon who breathed from the dragon. He condensed a chaotic missile and shot at the Yaoxing Dragon in front of him, but was dodged by the agile dragon.
The Dragon Prince and the Dragons are very thief. They look down on the devil, but they also know that the other party's strength is not quick, so they don't plan to fight hard from the beginning.
The following scene became a bit funny. The third-level terror-torture demon was not flying too fast and could not fully catch up with the dragon. Therefore, he always followed the butt of Yaoxinglong and the young dragon behind him to eat ashes. The adult dragon and the young dragon behind him kept spitting out dragon breaths, consuming the chaotic energy shield on his body.
Once it shows signs of stopping, the dragons will choose to bypass it, depending on who it pursues to restore the beginning.
The Dragon Princes have seen the effect of Hell Blade. They don’t plan to let their dragon companions experiment with whether the dragon scale can withstand the attack of Hell Blade.
Looking at the seemingly intense but actually anxious battle in the air, the hearts of the underground soldiers were hanging, and they silently prayed that the gods could bless the dragon to defeat the enemy.
[This is not a battle I can intervene... The first generation of Phoenix King "Enareo" can actually fight four great demons of this level. It is worthy of being the strongest existence in the history of the elves... It is stronger, and it has to become stronger!]
Carter, who felt a little guilty because the terror-torture demon was shocked just now, stared at the demon without blinking, and took his Sharingan to the extreme, recording his every move, and trying to analyze his weaknesses and moves worth learning from it.
Carter thought the battle would last for a long time until one side exhausted its energy.
But an accident came soon.
A dense drum sound suddenly came from the terrorist army, anxious and dense.
The demon who was entangled with four giant dragons in the air hundreds of meters was obviously stopped and then stopped in place to levitate as if thinking, regardless of the four breaths that arrived as expected. The dragon princes with this ignorant attitude used various magics, but they still failed to break the energy shield on the other party.
In half a minute, the great demon surrounded by a fire easily broke through the pressure coming from all sides and broke free from his breath. The dragon breath that lost his target and collided with each other triggered a small explosion in the air.
Looking at the great demon flying towards the terror army, the four dragon princes looked at each other a little at a loss, not understanding what the other party was thinking.
However, from the beginning to the present, the dragons that have generally used more than ten dragon breaths have indeed begun to be exhausted. Therefore, no matter what the other party is trying to make, after the great demon really retreats to the team of the Demon Sorrow Army, they fall from the air and return to their open space. The dragons immediately quote the prepared clear water and restore their physical strength and magic.
Carter, who had excellent long-sightedness, just saw the other party falling back, and then was blocked by the dense and strange-shaped low-level demons.
He was still a little scared and immediately took this opportunity to summon nearby officers to discuss the other party's actions, whether they had any hidden intentions, and at the same time, he asked soldiers from the auxiliary army to inspect and clean up the demon's corpses as soon as possible to avoid fraud.
But before they could discuss the results, something even more surprising happened
"The troops retreated!! They retreated!"
"What?"
Carter, who pretended to stare at the map under the city wall and tried to calm down his heart, immediately widened his eyes to return to normal after hearing the news, his blue eyes were full of confusion.
But this did not prevent him from returning to the city wall again and checking it in person.
【Really withdrawn?】
[There is no reason for this. Could it be to lure the enemy? Or is it something happened in the capital that it had to withdraw?]
Carter, who had experienced the bombardment of information, immediately started a brainstorming, and all kinds of assumptions flashed through his mind, but the lack of intelligence was always just fantasy.
However, not all the elves were as worried as he did. When ordinary elves saw the powerful demon army retreating, they immediately shouted happily.
Some believers who believe in faith even began to shout the name of the gods to express their joy after the disaster.
The strength of the real demon is too far from that of the local depraved. From the battle against the enemy to the opponent's retreat, the First Corps paid the price of no less than hundreds of casualties. Moreover, because most terror-torn demons use Hell's Blade, more deaths and less injuries are lost, because most elves can't avoid the attack of Hell's Blade, once they can't avoid it, they will be easily split in half.
Although the terror army also left behind thousands of corpses of low-level demons and creatures, the exchange ratio was quite good (mainly the dragon almost wiped out the Revenge Beast), it was a tragic victory for the elves with a limited population.
Finally, in the news feedback from the scouts, it was completely confirmed that the enemy had retreated. Carter, as the commander, immediately ordered the troops to make corrections on the spot.
