For city defense commanders who face the hell shapeshifting beasts directly, the most terrifying ability of these ferocious hell beasts is that they can directly ignore the obstruction of the city wall and directly transform from under the city wall to the top of the city wall.
Although they do not have the powerful ability of the Thunder Beast to ignore physical obstacles and directly pass through the city wall, they can teleport directly from the foot of the city wall to the top of the city!
This is the most terrifying thing about the Hellshifter in siege warfare.
Fortunately, due to their ferocious nature, this kind of hell beast does not even spare its own kind, so the number has never been large. Even on such an important battlefield as the Chaos Fortress, the hell side only invested 3,000 beasts at a time.
This force of ferocious beasts formed the arrows of the Hell Army's offensive, and relied on their rough skin and thick flesh to withstand the heavy artillery fire from the defenders on top of the city and charge under the city wall.
Then they all let out a violent roar, and then their bodies suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight!
The next moment, thousands of Hellshifters suddenly appeared in the professional military formation on top of the city. Their appearance immediately caused huge trouble to the defenders on top of the city!
"Defense! Assassin squad! Hold them back!!"
"Lead them in the direction of the trap! Don't move the front line of defense! Don't let more demons take the opportunity to rush up!"
The city was immediately filled with the orders of battlefield commanders.
In fact, Sgor and the others had anticipated the appearance of the Hellshifters in advance and prepared corresponding countermeasures.
After all, most high-level professionals have heard of the reputation of this kind of demon. With the abilities of commanders such as Sigor, it is impossible not to put such a troublesome demon unit into the list of one's own team that must be strictly guarded against.
But the true strength of the Hell Shifter is still a bit too high, especially when there is a dark gold leader-level Hell Shifter leading their charge.
The name of this dark gold leader-level hell shifter is "King of Slaughter", and it is a giant shifter that is much larger than ordinary shifters.
It inherited the terrifying power of the Hellshifter, but it also inherited the low IQ of the Hellshifter.
To put it simply, this guy is equivalent to a moving demonic meat grinder. Its intelligence is only equivalent to that of a three-year-old human child, and it is even less creative.
However, this kind of intelligence can be regarded as a "high IQ" genius in the shapeshifting race. You can imagine how stupid ordinary shapeshifters are.
This is also the reason why there are almost no projection-level monsters among Hell Shifters, because their own IQ is simply not enough for them to know how to control their own power to form projections.
It is precisely because of this that this dark gold leader-level hell shifter became the first dark gold-level demon to launch an attack on the walls of the Chaos Fortress.
After all, it's not that difficult to deceive a fool into doing a physical investigation, not to mention that except for the IQ, the Hellshifter's abilities in other aspects are all above the class level.
It is also a normal tactic to let them be the first to launch a charge against the city head to disrupt the human legion's defense line.
It has to be said that the devil's tactical level is obviously very high, because their tactic did play the expected role.
Sgor and other human commanders created several trap areas on the city walls specifically to defend themselves against the attacks of these shifters. These trap areas were filled with various trap skills of the assassins and some made with explosive potions.
A perfect hunter's trap.
Once hell shapeshifters rush to the city, high-level assassins will immediately use shadow masters to lead these shapeshifters into the trap area.
According to Sgoll's calculations, the traps in the trap area should be enough to kill hundreds of hellshifters at once.
However, what Sgor didn't expect was that the Hell Army would be so determined to invest three thousand Hell Shifters at once this time. This led to his previous predictions being wrong, and the traps in the trap area were not at all
Not enough to kill so many shifters at once.
To make matters worse, the appearance of the dark gold shape-shifting beast put even greater pressure on the defenders on the city.
A legendary paladin who was reinforced from Westmarch once tried to stop the "King of Slaughter" alone, but was struck with an ax by it within ten rounds, causing him to vomit blood and fly back!
Not only does this guy possess terrifying brute strength, but its original prototype is also very restrained. From the abilities it displays now, it is impossible to tell what this guy's original prototype was like.
The paladin who fought against it just said that he felt that the opponent's strength continued to increase exponentially during the battle. One second he could easily block the opponent's giant ax chop, and the next second he could barely block it.
.
Then in the next second, his whole body was hit hard by the opponent like a baseball and flew out.
And this is the result when it is blessed with a sacred shield, steps on the "resistance" aura, and even its original prototype is a defensive skill-based original prototype.
Such a "meaty" legendary paladin was knocked back within four rounds, which means that the dark gold shapeshifting beast "King of Slaughter" is in an advantageous position in close combat against almost any target of the same level.
.
There is no other way. The legendary strong man of mankind can only send three strong men of the same level as the King of Slaughter to contain it, but this means that the power to deal with the ordinary shape-shifting beasts rushing to the city is weakened.
.
It is generally difficult for high-level professionals around level 70 to deal with such giant demons that are huge in size and have amazing brute force but are also elusive. If you want to quickly eliminate the negative effects caused by these demons on the city walls, the only way is to let the legendary professionals take action.
deal with them.
But the total number of legendary powerhouses on the human side now does not exceed thirty. They not only have to coordinate the overall situation and command and deploy the human professional troops in various city wall sections, but they also have to deal with those who are brought to the city by the hell siege beasts from time to time.
A championship-level demon with a head.
This task is already very arduous, and now it has to add the burden of cleaning up thousands of shapeshifters, and also allocates part of its strength to deal with the "King of Slaughter".
This kind of full-load operation makes a group of legendary strong men simply exhausted. If the dark gold demons in the demon army attack in groups at this time, I am afraid that the Chaos Fortress will not even have the power to stop them.
Fortunately, although the hell side has all kinds of powerful demonic troops, the human side also has the strong support of the insect swarm.
Just when all the legendary commanders were feeling a little overwhelmed by the heavy burdens on their shoulders, some shapeshifters who stepped into the area covered by the fungus carpet at the city head suddenly seemed to have fallen into a quagmire, and were suddenly thrown directly under their feet.
The softened bacteria blanket was pulled in!
After a long period of obscurity, another new type of defensive biological structure of the swarm began to show its ferocious fangs in this crucial battle to defend the city.
The insatiable gluttonous stomachs of the Fujinuma defenders will soon become the final destination of these reckless shapeshifters!
