The 224th chapter Lu Gaoyin defense battle (fourteen)
The reason why Badi is called the "Queen of Ghosts" is because the ghosts she summons are really troublesome.
Although she possesses several mutated skills due to the previous "Simulite", the first mutated Skeleton Summoning skill has always been her greatest reliance.
These ghosts were extremely numerous and difficult to guard against. They had helped her countless times during her adventures.
However, these ghosts that she was proud of were defeated one after another at the hands of Xue Hua's insect swarm. Not only did they not play any role in the previous palace showdown (she stubbornly believed that the number was too small), they even
Now in this battle that has no restrictions on her, these ghosts have been completely blocked by the swarm from the battlefield.
This made Buddy very uncomfortable, even to the point of going crazy.
Under the protection of the shield, the insect swarm completely ignored the harassment of the ghosts and continued to move forward. The two insect mothers also followed up, providing the insect swarm with the blessing of mad feeding liquid.
A large number of poisonous banelings cut into the surrounding monster army from both sides of the insect swarm. The loud explosions and scattered acid bone fragments greatly improved the progress of the insect swarm.
Under the command of the insect mother, the insect swarm did not pay attention to Badi's crazy harassment, but kept immersing themselves in advancing towards the rear of the monster army, as if they wanted to completely penetrate the monsters' defense line.
However, in fact, their targets have always been the hell cultists behind the monster army who are preparing for the Demonic Land Transformation Ceremony. Ever since the Overwatch King Insect discovered their existence in the sky, the insect swarm has been attacking them.
.
The saboteurs' burning bile shells and the air strikes from the alien dragon swarms never stopped. Although Badi ordered the monsters to desperately cover the hell cultists, because these guys themselves were too fragile, they soon suffered heavy losses.
Loss.
Bardi is in a state of distress now. Since the emergence of the insect swarm, she has had to switch from strategic offense to strategic defense.
Although the monster legion still has an advantage in terms of large numbers, because there are no monster clones in the legion that can fight against the insect swarm units, it is impossible to effectively suppress the insect swarm that cooperates with the tacit understanding and has amazing combat effectiveness.
In addition, the ghosts she regarded as her trump card could not work against the insect swarm, so now the female necromancer could only watch helplessly as the insect swarm numbering less than 10,000 rampaged through the monster army of nearly 100,000.
Under the charge of two thunder beasts, all the efforts made by the female necromancer were ultimately in vain - she once summoned her own giant flame stone demon to try to block one of the thunder beasts, but the insect mother was already prepared for this.
A targeted poisonous baneling attack was immediately arranged, instantly destroying the flaming stone demon she summoned.
Finally, after realizing that this would only cost more troops and precious Hell Cultists here, Badi had to grit her teeth and choose to retreat. She threw down some Zakarum warriors and dwarfs, and then summoned another one.
The Fire Stone Demon blocked the road, and then led the remaining monster troops to retreat to the west of the gravel wasteland, intending to continue to attack other human towns.
However, at this time, other towns on the gravel wasteland have also received Lugoin's emergency notice. The residents in the towns have basically evacuated towards Fort Yucatana and Lugoin. Even if the monster army has now occupied
Those towns can only get an empty city. Coupled with the constant harassment of insect swarms, their losses will far outweigh their gains.
And if they still insist on obtaining enough human corpses to perform the demon soil transformation ceremony, then they have only two ways to go.
Either go south and attack Lugoin, or go and gnaw at Fort Yucatana, the heavily armored fortress that has gathered all the professionals on the rubble wasteland - it is the only military fortress in the Kingdom of Lugoin, and you want to gnaw at it.
It's not enough to rely on the monster projection in their hands.
While the swarm rescued the residents of Whiteman Castle, the same thing happened in Huishui City on the other side. The swarm repelled the invading monster legion and sent the residents of the city to Yucatana.
The road to the fort.
The only one who had an accident was the Gold Mine Leader. When the swarm arrived there, most of this walled town had already been destroyed.
The insect mother responsible for supporting the Gold Mine Territory had no choice but to change the assisting defensive battle to a rescue battle, and finally rescued about half of the residents of the Gold Mine Territory by digging tunnels.
However, when the bug swarm led the residents to retreat, they were pursued by a high-level assassin. He rushed into the bug swarm alone and killed many bugs by relying on the teleportation and explosive damage of the flying dragon.
The unit also attempted to assassinate the insect mother.
However, the insect mother quickly returned the favor through poisonous baneling traps and lurkers, and the arrogant assassin finally retreated from the swarm of insects at the cost of an arm.
Taking the general's head from the army has always been a story told by storytellers. Countless facts have proved how weak a person's power is in large-scale wars.
Even a legendary strongman will only end up running away if he is besieged by millions of projections.
The crisis in the gravel wasteland was safely resolved with the help of the insect swarm, but the situation in Lugoin City did not improve at all.
The demon army is still landing through the port, and the defensive pressure on the professionals is becoming more and more intense.
Fortunately, Xue Hua secretly dispatched a group of lurkers underground to help the professionals defend themselves. Otherwise, according to the intensity of the Demon Legion's attack, the defense line on the battlefield ahead would have been broken for a long time.
The Amazons have already withdrawn from the cliff. Although it is an excellent vantage point, it is also an easy target for enemy flying troops. Those big bats flying in the sky are really annoying, even for the brave and capable Amazons.
Losses arose under their relentless harassment.
In the end, in desperation, in order to prevent the precious Amazon warriors from being forcibly replaced by worthless clones, the commanders had to withdraw them from the cliff and arrange them into some scattered defenses behind the defense line.
On the high ground.
However, this is equivalent to putting all the pressure of air strikes on the frontline professionals. Although the fire support of the Amazons in a relatively stable environment also caused a lot of casualties to the Demon Legion, the frontline professionals
Their losses inevitably began to increase.
"This can't go on like this! We can't afford it! We have to find a way to lure those evil covenanters down from the sky so that my insect swarm can enter!"
Xue Hua looked at the fierce battle on the front line not far away. Now this war has fallen into a tug-of-war that is most unfavorable to the human side. Humanity's limited manpower simply cannot support this kind of attrition. It won't take long for the front line to fight.
Soldiers will lose their fighting ability due to fatigue.
At the same time, casualties will also increase significantly.
"We just tried it, but as soon as a few of us get up there, those guys will hide in other places and won't fight us at all. They want to run away, and we can't hold them back!"
Zhuo Genan also looked at the battle ahead helplessly. Now those evil contracters have calculated that they can't afford it, and they are going to fight a war of attrition with them. No matter how they go up to provoke them, these guys are just like a tortoise.
Not coming out made him feel extremely annoyed and anxious at the same time.
"...Ha! It seems like they really think I'm afraid of them!
Don’t come out? Then I’ll beat you until you come out!”
Xue Hua was silent for a moment, and a gleam of coldness suddenly appeared in his eyes. His original intention was to replicate the situation of the battle in the Stone Field, which is the so-called "soldiers versus soldiers, generals versus kings."
In this way, the insect swarm has both a strength advantage and a quality advantage, and can definitely take the initiative on the secondary battlefield.
But now the opponent is determined to fight a war of attrition with them, hiding its high-end combat power as a tactical deterrent.
The only way to break this tactic is to use strength to overcome skill, and directly use absolute strength to suppress the opponent's secondary combat power, forcing the opponent's high-end combat power to take action to solve the problem.
You don't want to take action?
OK!
If you don’t take action, I will force you to take action!
