Seeing that the Champion Flying Demon's raid was not only ineffective but also annihilated the entire army, the demon's air force commander immediately cursed the demon army commanders who asked it to send elite troops to destroy the Lupus Giant Spider to cover the ground troops' siege.
.
But the threat of the giant lupus spider is indeed too great. If this group of insidious and vicious spiders cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, the demonic troops on the ground will soon face greater losses.
Therefore, for the sake of the mission assigned by Demon Lord Mephisto and their own lives, although the demon air force leaders were reluctant, they could only send out the next wave of flying demons as soon as possible to solve the problem of the Lupus Giant Spider.
But this time, these guys have obviously learned a lot. They no longer use an elite squad composed purely of champion demons to carry out raid missions. Instead, they integrate the flying demons of the elite squad into a group of cannon fodder ordinary flying demons used as cover.
In the game, these ordinary demons help the champion demon who mainly performs the task to block knives and guns.
This mixed flying force was composed of 5,000 flying demons of various types, among which were 400 champion demons. Under the order of the leader of the demon air force, they once again launched a second wave of ferocious charge towards the lupus giant spiders on the top of the city.
.
This time, the captors could not simply pull down the champion demons hiding among the ordinary flying demons as they did just now, but fortunately there were air defenses from the insect swarm and the professional army on the city.
The firepower network was in place, and the anti-air firepower of the Hydralisks and Amazons helped the Lupus Spiders buy a lot of time to retreat.
There is no way, the air superiority over the Chaos Fortress is still in the hands of the demons, and the Lupus Spider without the protection of its own air force is actually very vulnerable when facing enemy flying units.
Therefore, when the Chaos Fortress's air force is still unable to regain air supremacy, the insect mothers have no choice but to temporarily withdraw miscellaneous killers such as the Lupus Giant Spider from the battle line to avoid unnecessary losses.
Seeing the swarm of giant lupus spiders withdrawing into the fortress under the cover of anti-aircraft firepower at the top of the city, the devil's flying commandos had no choice but to raise their flight altitude again to avoid crashing headlong into the confusing mass on top of the city.
In the fog of bacteria.
The Lupus Giant Spider's counterattack was suppressed by the demon army's air superiority. The insect mothers had no choice but to send these units that were good at surprise attacks and assassinations to the top of the city to supplement the defense with the shadow insects.
This was the first time in the history of this universe that the insect swarm had lost its air superiority in a battle, so it was naturally a little helpless for a while.
Fortunately, there are poisonous bugs in the insect swarm that can release bacterial fog that interferes with perception and sight, so that the demon air force, which has the advantage of air superiority, does not dare to launch a swooping air attack on the city head. Otherwise, the situation on the city head may have begun to deteriorate.
But even if it is shrouded in bacterial fog, protected by the nano-locust shield of the insect swarm host and the defense mechanism of the fortress itself, this defensive tactic cannot be sustained for a long time.
Not to mention how long it will take Mephisto to break free from the intrusion of order energy in his body. Even the demon army is so huge that people don't want to count it. It is enough to crush all the defense measures on the city.
This is because the east wall of the Chaos Fortress is only so wide, and there are very steep chasms blocking it on the south and north sides. The forced demons can only choose to attack frontally, and the front can only accommodate so many troops at the same time.
Otherwise, if the demons were to use all six of their armies together, I am afraid that the Chaos Fortress would have been crushed by now.
However, even if it is a stupid refueling tactic, once refueling is done enough times, the wick will be exhausted. Currently, the demon side has a huge numerical advantage. If it were not for the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain of the Chaos Fortress, which limits their numerical advantage.
If you play hard, it will be difficult to hold on to the Chaos Fortress even with the help of the insect swarm.
Not to mention that you can now fight back and forth with the demonic troops attacking the city.
Frankly speaking, with the demon army launching a general attack, the situation on the top of the Chaos Fortress was so good that it was beyond the expectations of Sgor and other commanders.
They were already prepared to take action at any time, willing to expend their own strength rather than let the demon army destroy the fortress defenses, but now it seems...it seems that there is no need for them to take action for the time being?
However, if the war situation continues to be so fierce and stalemate, they will definitely not be able to afford it. Even if the gate of heaven in the fortress is kept open, various supplies transferred from the first world are also being delivered continuously.
But there was no way for them to replenish their personnel quickly. Only the number of insect swarms could remain unchanged under the onslaught of the demon army.
In this regard, Si Geer and other commanders also felt a lot of pressure. The insect mother had already brought them the news about Xue Hua. Xue Hua said that it would take at least thirteen to fourteen days for the main force of the insect swarm to arrive.
Eternal battlefield reinforcements, so they need to survive at least more than ten days in the violent attack of the demon army.
However, more than ten days does not seem to be a long time, especially on the eternal battlefield where there is no alternation of day and night, it seems to have passed by in a flash.
But to survive the endless onslaught of hundreds of millions of demon legions with only the strength of his men for more than ten days, even Sgor, who was very good at battlefield command, said it was a lot of pressure.
Fortunately, he was not alone in this hell-level mission. The human professionals who came from the Demon Fortress, the unexpected transcendent Turner, and an insect swarm army helped him slightly reduce his power.
Some difficulty.
However, it is only "slightly" lowered.
You must know that the energy in the energy field underground of the fortress is not endless, and the vine protective net covering the heads of the defenders at the top of the city cannot always exist.
Although he has tried his best to send people to use perfect-level gems to recharge the energy field, if the current energy consumption continues, even if he uses all the perfect-level gems from the supplies reinforced by the first world for energy
In terms of field recharging, this shield can only last for three days at most.
The insect mothers of the swarm also warned Sgor that the psychic powers of the swarm hosts and toadstools in the swarm have upper limits. They can use the powers of the swarm hosts and toadstools to open and hatch new ones in turn.
Methods can be used to maintain the existence of bacterial fog and nano-locust shield, but it cannot be maintained forever.
They told Sgor and other commanders that the insect swarm's bacterial mist and nano-locust shield could last for up to five days. After that, they might not have enough psychic energy to continue to provide defense and protection.
This also means that the fifth day of this city defense battle will be a huge turning point in the entire battle. Whether the city wall defense line can continue to stand after losing the protection of the shield and germ fog will be a test for the city.
A critical test of the resilience and willpower of the defenders!
