One hundred and twentieth chapters of iron and blood in the harbor (thirteen)
On the top of the city of Kurast Harbor, heavy rain continued to wash away the towering city walls.
In the dark night, a brutal and unusual city defense battle had just come to an end.
The demon army retreated at midnight, leaving behind only a cruel battlefield filled with corpses.
On the city wall, rainwater and blood mixed together, flowing out from the cracks at the top of the city, intertwining and converging at the edge of the city wall to form a series of red and terrifying waterfalls.
The professional warriors finally ended the day's battle. They sat down in the corner of the city in exhaustion, seizing every moment to relax their nerves that had been tense for eight days.
Springtails and cockroaches took over the task of night patrol under the arrangement of the Insect Mother. These never-tiring biological warfare weapons have now become the most trusted partners of the soldiers of the two legions and the Iron Wolf mercenaries.
The steel boots stepped through a pool of sticky blood. Suothea held the war hammer and silently stared at the springtails arranged by Xue Hua to carry the bodies of the dead professionals down the city.
The female paladin's brows were full of resoluteness and determination, but the deep worry hidden in her eyes betrayed her true mood at the moment.
The battle on the eighth day was as fierce and crazy as General Hoch had expected. The evil covenant commanders who had been driven crazy by the fox wolf rushed all the forces at hand to the battlefield at all costs.
The Forgotten Legion has appeared again. Although the new units of the swarm have abolished the powerful curse ability of the Forgotten Mage, these powerful Demon God Guards still used their own strength to cause unusual tragedies to the professionals of the two legions.
casualties.
Today alone, there were more than 2,600 casualties among professionals. This number of casualties plus the previous accumulated casualties is almost equivalent to one-third of the total number of the two legions.
More importantly, their pharmaceutical supplies were completely exhausted at the end of today's battle. If they cannot find suitable substitutes or supply sources, the number of casualties in tomorrow's battle will continue to soar.
Thinking of this, Sothea sighed silently, stepping on the meditation aura and gently patrolling among these professional warriors who had been fighting for a whole day, trying to use her own meager efforts to lighten the burden on some of the warriors.
.
The food sent by the survivors of Kurast is under the city head, well wrapped in rainproof tarpaulin.
But these warriors were so tired that it was difficult for them to even chew, so she could only store the food first and serve it to the warriors when they were hungry.
In the corner of the city wall, there is a small pile of broken weapons that are slowly losing their luster. These are the broken equipment of the warriors who have exhausted their durability.
She slowly walked to the piles of broken equipment and stared at them in trance.
"Sosia."
A hoarse voice sounded behind her, surprising the female paladin who was immersed in thinking.
She looked back and saw Hodge and Ocaso walking slowly towards her from the other side of the city.
"General Hodge, Commander Ocaso." Sothea nodded politely and responded.
"How is the situation here? How many soldiers have started to use mana potions?" Hodge nodded absently, and then asked softly with a frown on his face.
"Almost everyone. And the mana potions used by a large number of barbarians, assassins and paladins are no longer powerful."
Sothea shook her head slightly, and the resolute expression on her face quickly turned into a deep look of worry.
"Is the supply of powerful mana potions about to be cut off? Lysander and Eco are already doing their best to refine it..."
When Ocaso heard Sosia's words, his originally fierce face was filled with sorrow.
"Yeah, let alone potions, many soldiers have even started to replace their equipment with the third set of blue-level spares..."
Hotch let out a long sigh and glanced at the pile of broken equipment around him, his tone full of uneasiness and exhaustion.
These legendary powerhouses have been fighting several times in the past few days with the legendary evil contracters who are trying to fish in troubled waters and climb to the top of the city. They have to command the battle and worry about supplies, maintain the morale of the troops, and prevent their opponents from launching surprise attacks.
The spirits of several legendary strong men also fell into exhaustion.
"How's it going over there in Asila? The Iron Wolf Guard's losses are said to be very serious."
Ocaso asked aloud.
"It's really not optimistic. The Iron Wolf Guard basically has less than one-third of its original members. If we can't get new supplies before tomorrow morning, I'm afraid the entire Kurast detachment of the Iron Wolf Guard will be gone tomorrow."
It will become history.”
Sothea sighed helplessly, and recalled Asira who had just suppressed the grief and resolutely asked for a fight.
This part of the Iron Wolf Guard is basically an elite veteran pulled out from the Second World battlefield by Asira, and it can be said that they all have a life-long friendship with each other.
In the past, losing even one of them would make Asila sad for months. This time, the number of comrades who were still alive and staying with her was less than one-third of the original number.
Moreover, this number will be significantly reduced tomorrow. Even if they cannot find new supplies before dawn, it is very possible that the entire Iron Wolf Guard will be directly eliminated.
Under such circumstances, Asila still asked without hesitation to stay on the city to fight, and none of the remaining Iron Wolves under her had any intention of retreating. They were all a group of resolute heroes who did not care about death.
"Hey... where is Xue? Does he have any good ideas?" Hotch sighed softly at first, then raised his head and asked Sothea as if he suddenly remembered something.
"I don't know. That guy has locked himself in the house since the fifth day of the battle. He is so mysterious that he doesn't know what he is doing..."
Mentioning Xue Hua, Sothea also slightly frowned heroically. This little guy she met in Lu Gaoyin could always bring them new vitality in times of despair.
But this time, he seemed to no longer want to care about this matter and huddled into a newly built cabin. He had not been seen for four or five days in a row.
"Hey... this is indeed my fault. We shouldn't put all the pressure on Xue. He is not yet twenty-five years old, right? At this age, he is not even a child among professionals.
ah.
And he has indeed done enough for us, and we should really reflect on it ourselves."
Hotch shook his head, sighed once again, and prepared to call the two of them to the headquarters to discuss tomorrow's tactical plan.
At this moment, an insect mother suddenly came over from behind them and said to them in a slightly hoarse voice: "Human commander, our master invites you to meet him. The master is waiting for you in your command headquarters.
