With the help of the Demon Slayer Legion, the Insect Mothers quickly separated the insect swarm from the frontline firefight with the Zakarum Legion and mixed and reorganized in the rear, re-weaving a more comprehensive map with the Zakarum Legion as the focus of encirclement.
Thick blocking net.
The Mutalisaurus Legion, which was facing the risk of being surrounded in the sky, took this opportunity to retreat to the rear of the defense line. The regrouped Hydralisks and Spear Hunters used a powerful fire net to block the pursuit route of the Winged Demons.
The professionals of the Demon Slayer Legion summoned a large number of servants to serve as the front line of the interception line, and the insect mothers of the swarm also hatched a group of exterminators directly from the hidden insect nests to fill the gaps in the direction of the professionals.
Since the enemy now has an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the previous trick-like tactics will definitely no longer work.
Now the only way left is frontal interception. They must block the 500,000 demon army in this rainforest for a long enough time, so that the Kurast Harbor has more time to deploy city wall defenses.
In the humid and sultry rainforest, tens of thousands of Zakarum berserker vanguards were ready to charge.
Following an order from the Evil Contractor commander at the rear, these once-firm demonized human warriors roared crazily and rushed towards the mixed defense line of the Demon Slayer Legion and the insect swarm.
In the sky, the group of winged demons also launched a charge towards the airspace where the mutant dragons were. A large number of hellfire balls rained down on the blocking line first. The paladins raised their shields and stepped on the fire-resistant aura.
, shouting encouraging words loudly.
The mother insects in the swarm came to the front line of the battlefield, and the spray chamber above their heads sprayed out large streams of bright yellow sap.
The fungus mist of the poisonous fungi rose from the leaf forest behind, and soon the entire front line was shrouded in a misty purple mist.
Large numbers of infected people projected mutants and released mold growth on the path of the Zakarum berserkers. With the help of the projectors, the first wave of poisonous banelings also directly crossed the canopy and smashed into Zakarum.
Among the berserker warriors.
Along with the violent roar and the rapidly spreading green acid mist, there were large obvious vacancies in the vanguard of the Zakarum Legion.
As the distance between the two sides gradually approached, the Zakarum Berserkers at the front quickly entered the attack range of the mages and Amazons of the Demon Slayer Legion.
Countless vermilion fireball rockets soared into the sky, and hundreds of meteorites crashed down in the sky at the same time.
The necromancers stood on the shoulders of their respective stone demons, waving short staffs and various shrunken heads in their hands to sprinkle large swaths of curses on the charging demon warriors.
Walls of bones stood up in front of them. The sea of fire ignited by the sacrificial arrows and the rain of arrows fired by the artillery fire burned and roared crazily on the battlefield.
A distance of five hundred meters, this distance has simply become the death zone for Zakarum's berserker warriors. The powerful firepower erupted from the combined force of the insect swarm and the Demon Slayer Legion makes it impossible for these fallen warriors wearing bone armor to cross this place.
Road natural moat.
The evil covenanters at the rear were surprised that the Zakarum Legion's charge was thwarted, but they immediately sent a large number of Zakarum Priests and Undead Styx Dolls to the front.
With the help of the treatment and spells of the Zakarum Priest and the desperate charge of the Undead Styx Doll, the Zakarum Berserker Vanguard finally crossed the death zone woven by a web of firepower.
The battle soon entered the hand-to-hand combat stage. The Zakarum berserkers fully demonstrated their powerful combat effectiveness in close combat. These fallen warriors holding unified two-handed battle axes quickly destroyed the demon slayers almost as soon as they made contact.
The skeleton army summoned by the legion's necromancers.
Immediately afterwards, the wolves summoned by the druids were quickly defeated. Only a very small number of stone demons, bears and valkyries could compete with them.
However, due to the small number of these summons, they cannot completely block the attack of the Zakarum Berserkers. Where there are loopholes in the defense line of the summons, the Zakarum Berserkers swarm in and head towards the professional personnel in the rear.
The formation launched a surprise attack.
On the insect swarm's side, the exterminators' thick bone shields perfectly blocked the Zakarum berserkers' axes. The harvesting of the lurkers underground and the uninterrupted mold growth skills of the infected also made the impact more difficult.
The Zakarum berserkers who came up were restrained and unable to exert their full power.
On the other hand, the insect swarm, with the double blessing of the insect mother liquid and the toadstool insect mist, the insect swarm's combat effectiveness has been improved by a whole level, especially when the insect mothers will bring out the carpet spores from the hidden insect nest.
After being planted on the battlefield, the spreading carpet caused the activity of various organs of all Zerg units to skyrocket.
After this ebb and flow, the attacks of the Zakarum Berserkers were no longer able to shake the Exterminator's defenses. Only the Blizzard skill released by the Zakarum Priest could still bring some trouble to the swarm.
.
In the sky, the alien dragons were too few in number and no longer dared to engage in a head-on battle with the winged demon army, which numbered close to 200,000. This was the first time that the insect swarm had given up its air superiority on the battlefield.
However, the nano-locust shield of the insect swarm host makes it difficult for the winged demons to pose a threat to the insect swarm's ground units even if they occupy the air superiority. They can only uselessly bombard the fireball barrages on those seemingly weak but actually indestructible units.
On the honeycomb shield.
The battlefield in the rainforest quickly fell into a stalemate. The Zakarum forces that had previously broken through the Zerg interception network were disrupted by assassins from the Demon Slayer Legion united with the Shadow Worms.
They lead small groups of demons into ambush areas full of traps and lurkers, and then help the shadowworms wipe them all out.
However, this stalemate will not last long. The number of Zakarum Hell Legion is as high as 500,000. This numerical advantage cannot be made up by tactics.
The reason why the Demon Slayer Legion was able to fight the more numerous sheep-headed demon legion at the border of the rain forest before was entirely because the two sides had different tactical purposes.
The purpose of the fox wolf is to prevent the demon slayer army from penetrating into the rainforest, so he is the defender and Hodge is the attacker.
But the current situation is completely opposite. The purpose of the Demon Slayer Legion and the Insect Swarm is to prevent the Zakarum Legion from counterattacking Kurast Harbor prematurely, so they are now the defenders while the Zakarum Legion is
attacker.
Since ancient times, defenders have been able to gain most of the geographical advantages, but they have lost the right to make active choices.
In comparison, attackers are much more flexible. If they don't have to capture a certain place, they can choose to bypass it.
This poses a bigger problem for the defenders - how to use fewer troops to defend a larger area.
Now the insect swarm and the Demon Slayer Legion are facing the pressure brought by this problem.
