The center of this area is a stone circular trading ground with a diameter of nearly 100 meters. It is divided into three floors. The underground floor is used for storage and the two above-ground floors are used for trading. It can accommodate at least 10,000 people. The situation inside is very complicated.
In order to prevent members of the Black Hand from escaping, a large number of well-equipped city guards were deployed at each entrance and exit of the trading venue, as well as on every street outside the trading venue.
The trading floor was in chaos, with cries and screams heard from time to time.
"How's the situation inside?"
A stone restaurant outside the city was used as a temporary command post. A knight in heavy armor was holding a monocular telescope and looking at the situation ahead through a polished crystal lens.
Next to the knight was a scout in leather armor. He was half-kneeling on the ground and said in a hurry: "Those humanized high-level demons were hiding in the trading place and the soldiers rushed in. The losses were very heavy."
"Let the brothers withdraw, and then give an ultimatum. If the devil wants to hide, we will set fire to the entire trading place!" The knight put down the telescope and said coldly.
"Sir, there are thousands of civilians inside the trading venue..." the scout hesitated.
The knight was silent for a moment and then asked: "Are there any important people in there?"
"Nothing has been found yet." The scout shook his head.
"I understand. After issuing the ultimatum, let go of the exit of the trading place and wait ten minutes to allow more civilians to run out. As for those who cannot escape...may Odin protect them!" the knight said seriously.
High-level demons have actually appeared in the capital of a country. If they are not eliminated, the Kingdom of Holy Helm will definitely lose face and become the laughing stock of the entire continent. Not to mention, in a few days, there will be a banquet for His Majesty, and the city will be full of nobles.
, so there must be no accidents.
The scout nodded and went down to deliver the order.
After a while, a warning sounded outside the trading venue, and at the same time, soldiers began to take action. A large number of barrels filled with kerosene were brought over, and small ejection trucks were also brought over, ready to set fire to the place.
The cries in the trading venue became more and more shrill, and civilians kept running out of each exit.
"No. There's a demon out there! Over there!" Behind the team, a battle mage's staff emitted a faint white light. The white light flew out and stuck to a man's head, pointing out where the demon was in the crowd.
.
This demon has undergone humanization, and its appearance is no different from that of a human. However, there are still many subtle features that can be distinguished. He is very strong and tall, with a body like a bull, with slightly dark skin and many bloodshot eyes.
Humanized demons still have the power of demons, and even have very high magic resistance. However, they lose the powerful defense brought by the demon's scale armor.
As soon as it was pointed out, the demon roared, grabbed a nearby ordinary person, used his body as a shield, and rushed forward crazily.
"Rune-penetrating crossbow! Cover attack!" The commanding knight defending at the corresponding exit shouted an order.
"Peng! Peng! Peng!" Dozens of bed crossbows kept vibrating, and dozens of arm-thick crossbow arrows completely covered the demon's hiding space.
The demon had nowhere to dodge. After the human body in his hand was penetrated by the magic crossbow, the remaining force continued. It penetrated the demon's body and shot directly through it. A dozen civilians around him were not affected and were shot to death on the spot.
This wave of attacks killed demons and dozens of civilians.
The war between races is cruel and bloody!
Immediately after this wave of attacks, there were howls one after another in the trading venue. At the same time, a large amount of black energy rose into the sky.
The battle mage looked solemn and shouted: "Be careful, the demons are showing their prototypes!"
The knight who was in command at the restaurant also came to the street and was sitting on horseback. Looking at the battlefield ahead, he pointed his sword forward and shouted: "The devil wants to break through, stop them, no matter what the cost!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a demon that was three meters tall, covered in dark brown metallic luster scales, with sharp horns resembling a rhinoceros on its head, rushing out of an exit of the trading place. It was so strong that it was unbelievable.
"It's the Abyss War Demon!" The battle mage yelled out the type of demon, his face turned pale.
The Abyss War Demon is a super-high-level demon species with a very small number. It is the bodyguard of the Demon King in the Underdark. Facing the elite human soldiers, it is not impossible to fight one against a hundred, especially in this capital city with intricate streets. These demons are almost
Unstoppable.
In the blink of an eye, at least one Abyss War Demon appeared at every exit of the trading place, and some exits even had two or three, for a total of fifteen.
As soon as the war demon appears, it rushes forward crazily, and everything along the way is either knocked away or crushed. It is unstoppable and indestructible. It is an extremely crazy abyss chariot.
"Rune crossbow shooting!" A hoarse roar came out. There was another sound, and a large number of crossbow bolts were fired.
"Roar!" "Roar~" The abyss war demon let out a wild roar. Facing the attack of the bed crossbow, he did not dodge or evade, but lowered his body, protected his head with his arms, and continued to charge forward.
At the same time, a layer of black light flowing like water appeared on their bodies. This is the innate magic skill that every demon has: body of steel.
Facing such violent high-level demons, after the rune-penetrating crossbow, which could usually penetrate nearly a foot thick steel, hit their bodies, it could only bring up a flash of fire before helplessly sliding to the side.
"Oh God!" This result made all the soldiers present feel very sad.
"Grease!" the Battle Mage Commander shouted.
The battle mages equipped at each exit immediately began to cast spells. Under the light, they immediately turned the street in front of the demons into a greasy place, trying to make these savage guys fall down.
This spell had some effects, and seven or eight demons fell to the ground without checking.
At this time, ordinary soldiers and even bed crossbows could not stop the demon. Only the battle magicians on the scene could stop the demon from breaking through.
A nearly one meter thick earth wall quickly rose to a height of fifteen meters, blocking all street exits.
"Roar" The war demons have adapted to the greasy technique. They stamped their feet on the ground one by one, stepped deeply into the earth, and continued to stride forward.
"Boom!" The earth wall shook, and a lot of dust fell. Behind the earth wall, the Abyss War Demon slammed into it with his body.
Once, twice, three times...the earth wall began to loosen, the magic structure was about to collapse, and the faces of the soldiers behind the earth wall turned pale.
"Get ready to hit the wood!"
Seeing that the wall was about to collapse, the knights roared.
As a result, it was nearly one meter in diameter and eight meters long. The crash car usually used to attack the city was pushed over and aimed at the position of the earth wall. As long as this magic was broken through, the crash car would hit it with all its strength.
'Boom' One of the earth walls collapsed, and the Abyss War Demon rushed out from the dust.
"Bump!" the knight ordered.
"Hey!" Hundreds of soldiers worked together. On the narrow street, they pushed the crash car and hit the devil hard.
‘Bang’, the collision pile hit the Abyss War Demon, and there was a dull sound.
No matter how strong the war demon is, it has its limit. Facing the combined efforts of hundreds of human warriors, it is ultimately defeated. It was knocked back dozens of meters and fell to the ground, turning into a rolling gourd.
"Earth wall!" The battle mage saw the opportunity and did not give the demon any chance to breathe. He immediately raised the earth wall to block the demon and prevent the demon from counterattack. At the same time, it gave Crash a chance to adjust.
The earth wall rose. From behind came the violent roar of the Abyss War Demon. This roar was full of energy, without any sign of injury. Instead, it became more violent and powerful. The soldiers behind the earth wall looked at each other in horror.
‘Are these demons all immortal?’ This thought came to the minds of the soldiers.
These collisions don't even hit people. Even if they hit a horse, they will be smashed into pieces. Now these war demons can't be hurt at all. It's terrible. It's terrible.
And there is not just one, but dozens of them. How can we fight this?
'Boom!' Another sound of shaking came from the earth wall. The earth wall began to tremble and was about to be broken through again. The battle mage accompanying the team looked at the commanding knight in the team and said with difficulty: "I don't have much magic left."
He is just a three-star magician, an ordinary combat magician trained by the royal family. The Earth Wall Technique just now is a third-level magic, and he can only cast three of them a day.
After he was released, he became a useless person.
The knights clenched their fists tightly, their hearts filled with despair. They did not expect to encounter the powerful Abyss War Demon today, so they were not fully prepared.
The combat power of these war demons is equivalent to that of a five-star magician. If ordinary soldiers are used to fight against them, they must carry super-heavy siege crossbows or use giant beast cavalry to fight against them.
Now that they have none of these, and with the capital city behind them and unable to retreat, it seems that they can only fight to the death today.
"The great magician Russell is in the city, he will come over." The battle mage grasped this last hope.
"Russell? He is just a 21-year-old young man. Is he really a great magician?" Of course the knight knew the news, but this news came from the palace. This kind of political thing, who knows whether it is true or false
?
The battle mage himself also had some doubts and could not answer for the moment.
At this moment, intense screams came from the exit on the other side of the trading venue, mixed with the roars of the abyss war demons. It was obvious that that side had been breached, and listening to this movement, it was completely one-sided.
The massacre!
The commanding knight and the battle mage looked at each other with one thought in mind: "This is really a disaster!"
With a 'crash', the earth wall in front was also broken through, and the Abyss War Demon rushed out.
The soldiers pushed the car again, but this time, Zhan Mo learned his lesson and ducked to the side to avoid the collision...
The crash car is heavy and heavy, and if you miss it, there will be no chance to recover.
The Abyss War Demon roared, waved his fists, and began to charge wildly. Soldiers along the way would die if they hit him, and they would be maimed if they were rubbed. No one could stop him!
"It's over!" All the soldiers present had the same thought in their hearts.
But suddenly, the war demon who was charging forward savagely stopped and looked at the sky.
‘Hoo~ho~’ A violent whistling sound suddenly came from the sky. Everyone turned their heads and saw a pair of huge cyan light wings. Within the light wings was a small figure.
"It's the great magician Russell here!" the battle mage roared excitedly!
