Violent explosions resounded throughout the city, which was covered with blood and dirt. Intertwined with these explosions were the constant sounds of swords clashing and howls and shouts of killing.
On the top of the city of Chaos Fortress, which is tens of meters wide, human and demonic troops are fighting each other ferociously. The battle lines of both sides are intertwined. Thick black smoke and blood-red mist are mixed and permeate the battlefield, making people feel...
It is almost impossible to distinguish the directions of southeast, northwest and northwest...
The fighting between the two sides was so fierce that the air on the battlefield turned into an unpleasant gas that smelled of rust and sulfur.
This life-and-death battle has lasted for twelve full days so far. During these twelve days and nights, almost both sides of the war have paid an extremely heavy price for this war.
The meat grinder of Chaos Fortress has now devoured the lives of more than 26,000 elite professionals, and the number of defenders on the city has now been reduced by nearly half.
Many familiar faces from the past have turned into dust. They spent their lives to fulfill the oath they swore at the inauguration ceremony.
We will defend the homeland of mankind to the death and never take a step back from aggression!
The sacrificed soldiers have left, but those who are still alive still continue to fight. They all know what the wall under their feet means, so everyone here is ready to live or die with the fortress.
Not only on the top of the Chaos Fortress, but also in the sky, more than half of the Angel Legion has withered away.
The legendary angel commander Ursa had already died heroically when he led his angel army to intercept the demon's elite raiding force a few days ago and was flanked by two dark gold-level flying demons. Before his death, he forcefully self-destructed his original prototype.
One of them flanked him and pulled the dark gold demons into the realm of the dead.
The current Angel Legion is led by a quasi-legendary high-level angel, and the number of the entire Angel Legion is less than half of its original size.
Angels are not afraid of sacrifice, because they know that even if they die, they will only go to the realm of the dead for a short time, and the crystal arch of the high heaven will soon reborn them, unless they are like the angel of justice Tyrell.
It has lost the source of order it represents.
But what they don't know is that the current Crystal Arch has long been contaminated by fallen heroic angels. The souls of all the angels who died on the eternal battlefield have been extracted from the Crystal Arch and fed back to its "new
Owner".
Therefore, if the angels here are killed in battle, they are truly killed, and no new angels will be born in the Crystal Arch.
However, the angels here do not know all this at this moment, and the cunning Narud deliberately made Imperius wait in the high-level heaven.
It wants to collect as many angel souls as possible before the eternal war is ended. Using these souls, it will create its own "eternity"!
Shrouded in its conspiracy, the fate of the angels is tinged with tragedy.
These souls who fought bravely for their beliefs had no idea what tragic end they would end up with.
The angels who were kept in the dark were still fighting bravely and fearlessly against enemies hundreds or even thousands of times greater than themselves. Now, an angel fell almost every few dozen minutes, and their companions did not know that they were about to
Will never come back again.
The only defenders on the battlefield of the entire Chaos Fortress who still maintained their intact formations and even increased in number were the insect swarms.
This is not to say that the insect swarm is so greedy, and at this scale, there is no loss at all. In fact, on the contrary, the loss of the insect swarm is also very large, and it can even be said to be the largest among all the defenders.
.
But the problem is that the units of the insect swarm are all mass-produced. Hundreds of larvae can be produced in the hatchery every minute, and it will not take long for these larvae to be transformed into the full combat effectiveness of the insect swarm.
And all it takes is some resources.
Thanks to the massive resource income brought by the "biological Dyson Sphere" and the newly evolved resource collection characteristics of the worker bees, the insect swarm now has no shortage of resources at all. Therefore, the two hatcheries in the Chaos Fortress have been almost empty in the past ten days.
More insect swarm units were hatched day and night, which resulted in the number of insect swarm units in the Chaos Fortress not only not decreasing at all, but actually increasing.
It is estimated that only the insect swarm can pull off this kind of explosive on-site reinforcement. And even so, under the non-stop attack of hundreds of millions of demon armies for more than ten days, even the insect swarm began to feel the
Stressed.
The number of human professional legions is getting smaller and smaller, and the reinforcements from the Gate of Heaven have also become intermittent from the beginning. It is said that the remaining speaker of the Demon Fortress Council has begun to lobby various parties in the first world.
This is a sacred place for great professionals. I hope they can help mankind overcome this difficulty.
Faced with such a situation, the pressure on the city wall section that the insect swarm needs to bear is becoming more and more intense. With only two hatcheries hatching reserve troops, even the insect swarm faces such pressure to defend the city.
It's not easy either.
The insect mothers have tried to think of other countermeasures, such as opening a new insect nest base outside the western wall of the Chaos Fortress, or simply building the nest underground.
Unfortunately, these two commonly used countermeasures for swarm expansion are not feasible on the Eternal Battlefield.
First of all, since the insect swarm has almost lost its air superiority, the air superiority around the Chaos Fortress is basically in the hands of the demons. In this case, unless you send a large army to protect you, as long as you dare to leave the Chaos Fortress, no matter what
No matter how remote the nest location is, it will be quickly found and destroyed by the demon air force.
The second expansion strategy is due to the geographical environment of Eternal Battlefield.
The underground here is full of scattered rocks that have been forcibly compressed by energy. Although it can be dug through, it is very easy to collapse.
The effort required to expand the nest in this land structure is not proportional to the reward, and even emergency expansion is almost worthless.
Therefore, nest expansion is almost impossible.
In this case, we can only use the existing power as efficiently as possible.
So in order to strengthen the defense, the insect mothers hatched more spiny crawlers and spore crawlers to densify the city defense nodes, and also hatched a large number of lurkers to strengthen the connections between the nodes.
Shadowworms and Spear Hunters were used as champion demon hunters to replace the legendary powerhouses, while banelings were used to recapture those sections of the city wall that had been invaded by demons.
The combined use of multiple tactics by the swarm has relieved a lot of pressure and burden on the human professional legions, allowing them to continue fighting without being overwhelmed by the huge number of enemy troops.
So the stalemate in the Chaos Fortress continued like this, until the hourglass turned upside down for the thirteenth time, and the situation on the entire battlefield suddenly changed dramatically!
The huge dark curtain not far from the Chaos Fortress... suddenly started to move forward again!
