Time passed quickly, and humans built a defense system with huge rocks to resist the attack of the Black Flame Demon, and used their flesh and blood to protect the city of Doro behind them.
For more than twenty consecutive days, the Black Balrogs would attack at least twice every day.
At the beginning, Jikel was very happy. As long as they relied on the defense system, it would be much easier for them to resist.
As time passed, the situation began to change, the number of human warriors began to decrease, and the resistance became weaker and weaker.
Every time, the Black Flame Demons would be used like a tide, and after a killing spree, they would leave with a large number of human corpses.
The Black Flame Demons do not produce, and their source of food comes from hunting. During this kind of war, they have no time to hunt, and the enemy's corpses become their food to satisfy their hunger.
The constant harassment of fighting methods makes human beings miserable. In addition to the soldiers who die in battle, there are also many wounded and disabled soldiers, which continuously weakens the combat effectiveness of human beings.
Human beings are injured or disabled and cannot go on the battlefield anymore. They need time to recover, but the Black Flame Demons don't need it. Their recovery ability is too strong. As long as they don't die, they will recover as before in a very short period of time.
Under endless harassment, human beings are getting weaker and weaker, but the Black Flame Demon has always maintained a strong fighting power.
All the warriors of the human coalition were exhausted. Many warriors could not sleep. Mental fatigue affected their health. Many warriors began to fall ill and became physically weak.
Reinforcements from other cities continued to come to the Doro City coalition camp to replenish new blood, but the effect was not good. The human coalition was still losing a lot of personnel. Even if there were reinforcements, they could not keep up with the rate of battle casualties.
Of the original 400,000 coalition soldiers, there are now not even 100,000 who can go to the battlefield. Even the remaining soldiers are dragging their exhausted bodies to hold on.
Even Xiaobai's death warriors suffered uncontrollable casualties after a long battle. Nearly a hundred death warriors died, which made Xiaobai very distressed.
Jikel never expected that the battle would turn into such a stalemate. Although the human reinforcements were waiting, they were still unable to stop the Black Flame Demon. Not only that, the humans were even more and more disadvantaged.
In the tent, all the senior congressmen gathered together. This time, several senior congressmen did not show up because they died in the battle.
Jikel, who had some gray hair and looked much older, sat tiredly on the main seat, looked at the high councilors present, braced himself, and said: "I feel a little strange. In the past week, the Black Flame Demon has not
Attack, this is so abnormal."
Little Dro continued what he said: "Well, I also feel strange. The Black Flame Demon's defense has been strengthened, and none of the soldiers I sent to inquire about the news have come back."
After finishing speaking, Little De Luo looked at the other senior congressmen, and they all nodded. Apparently, they also noticed that the Black Flame Demon was unusual.
Xiao Bai frowned and said nothing. He still hasn't fully understood the Black Flame Demon.
High-level aliens are high-level aliens. Sometimes we cannot think of them the same way we treat humans. Xiaobai has already smelled an unusual smell.
The old patriarch of Corderosi sat up straight. Although his face was old, his eyes were bright and he was surprisingly energetic, as if the war had given him a new life.
The old patriarch of Corderosi turned to look at Xiaobai. This young man gave him too many surprises. He wanted to know what this young man had to say this time. He said to Xiaobai: "Congressman Xiaobai
, do you have anything to share with us?”
Xiao Bai was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and said, "I'm thinking about something."
The old patriarch of Coderosi asked quickly: "What is it? You can tell me anything, it might be useful."
Xiaobai nodded and said, "I'm thinking about food."
food?
All the senior members present were stunned. At this time, they were actually thinking about food?
What you are still thinking about is the food issue for the Black Flame Demons. Are you crazy?
Xiaobai looked around at the people around him, stood up and came to the center, thinking while saying: "We all know that the food of the Black Flame Demon comes from hunting, and they never have a lot of food in their hands, otherwise they would not be there.
After the war, all the corpses were taken away to supplement their food shortage."
The senior congressmen nodded after hearing this. They had known this for a long time.
Xiaobai continued: "In this case, I was thinking that it has been a week. According to my inference, they have already run out of food. They have not attacked and there are no human corpses. So where does their food come from?"
As soon as Xiaobai's question came out, everyone present was stunned.
Indeed, this was a problem that they had ignored. They had been thinking that the Black Flame Demons were not attacking, so they were engaging in some kind of conspiracy, or were they building war weapons again.
But I never thought about their lack of food.
Human beings don't have to worry about food. Reinforcements from other cities are constantly flowing in. Food has been transported to Doluo City and added to the army, so that they don't have to worry about food.
The Black Flame Demons do not have such supplies. As Xiaobai said, they rely on plundering human corpses to obtain food. But now that they have stopped attacking, without human corpses, where will their food come from?
Xiao De Luo spread his hands and asked: "Congressman Xiao Bai, what is the answer to this question?"
Xiaobai shook his head and said helplessly: "I don't know much about the Black Flame Demons. I'm not sure what they are for, but this is definitely not a good sign. It reminds me of an allusion."
Little Delor was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "What kind of allusion?"
Xiaobai stared into his eyes and said: "Extremely hungry and injured beasts are the most dangerous."
Hunters who hunt all year round know this. When hunting, they generally will not mess with such beasts, because such beasts will fight tooth and nail and are more dangerous than usual.
But this does not explain what the Black Flame Demon is doing, and everything is back to square one.
The senior congressmen feel that their heads hurt. The Black Balrog is indeed an extremely difficult enemy to deal with.
From the time they attacked until now, except for the time when the war weapons were used, humans still had an advantage. At other times, humans have always been at a disadvantage, and the gap is getting bigger and bigger.
Jikel rubbed his temples and said slowly after a while: "Now we don't know what they are doing, and guessing is useless. We will send more spies. I want to know what they are preparing."
The senior councilors had no objections to this point, but Xiao Bai sighed, knowing that the Black Flame Demon must have a conspiracy.
