Chapter 49 Meat Grinder
Under the king's tent, the thick and colorful oil paintings came alive instantly, the demon shadows standing on the earth buzzed, and the outlines of the sky were suddenly very messy.
The entire Demon Expeditionary Force was mobilized, and while pushing the front line, it seemed to have a tacit understanding and each performed its own duties, which was even more organized than when Bosh was conducting direct command.
On the ground, siege beasts with different shapes but tall as hills moved their steps, leaving footprints after footprints that seemed to come from eternal places, approaching the Iron City.
Most of them look like giant elephants, but only a few are like giant bells and giant wheels. When they move, they turn or roll, making a buzzing sound that resounds through the battlefield, which makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Especially when the bell-shaped siege beast moves forward, it seems that it can turn around the nearby moonlight every time it rolls, and slowly approaches with the combination of light and darkness. Even the nearby Demon Wolf Cavalry did not dare to get close.
The Demon Wolf Cavalry was one step ahead, with its formation protruding before the siege beast. It gradually drove away the Iron City all over the mountains, but it did not completely release its speed and always guarded the siege beast.
In the sky, thousands of winged demons and red-skinned demons covered the moonlight, like a ball of red clouds that were about to overwhelm the city, circling and chasing each other in the sky, sometimes dispersing and sometimes advancing, unpredictable, and it is impossible to understand the specific direction of the army's edge.
At the same time, there was a red light attached to the wolf claws of the Demon Wolf Cavalry, the noses of the elephant-shaped siege beasts, and the eyes of the Winged Demon... There were only more than ten in total, and they were extremely evil and treacherous.
As for the nightmare female demon who was almost exclusive, he stayed in the king's tent, and seemed to have no intention of attacking, just waiting for the devil commander to return triumphantly.
When Li Yue ran back to the vicinity of the king's tent, there were no monsters left on the mountain - Li Yue only sensed the nightmare female demon in the tent, the demon chef Pige behind the tent, and the red-robed priest Rhett on the top of the mountain next to the tent.
What is confusing is that Reidkot just circles around the top of the mountain, muttering words all over the place; then gathers his thoughts at the top of the mountain, and Li Yue senses an unknown internal organ, a piece of the red-skinned demon's arm, a string of winged demon's tail bones, and a magic crystal covering the top of the mountain...
Li Yue guessed that Redecoth might have presided over some ceremony and was also contributing to the siege in his way.
The book and sales of the house are missing, and they don’t know where they are hidden.
There was no need for Li Yue to completely set foot in the camp under the king's tent. When he ran with Yingying to a hundred steps away from the bone burial site, he saw three or five weak bone hands... moving forward on the ground.
After a brief sense, Li Yue found that the broken limbs of ten bone wizards buried underground. He thought it was still a little shallow, but they were directly pulled out.
Motion Yingying to put away the bone hand, Li Yue and Yingying picked up the bone mage's broken bones and retreated all the way, and then quickly dug out the remaining bone mage from the pit.
"Let's go?" Li Yue's shadow changed its shape, and it was Wei Ying asking Li Yue.
Li Yue concentrated his perception in front of him, and then extended it to the maximum extent, grasped the basic situation of the battlefield, and sighed inwardly, which was quite layered...
The Winged Demon and the Red-Skinned Demon covered the moonlight, spreading for several miles, occupying the air.
On the ground, looking from Li Yue's side, the siege beasts first arranged an array of five miles away from the Iron City, with their positions slightly scattered, taking care of the entire front of the Iron City and occupying the center line of the entire battlefield.
Crossing the middle line, the Demon Wolf Cavalry, all over the mountains, had already rushed to the opposite city, but there were still about a thousand cavalry, cruising two hundred meters away from the siege beast, as if they were guarding for something.
When the Demon Wolf Cavalry that rushed to the city entered the range of artillery fire, a large number of fires began to light up on the walls of the Iron City in an orderly manner. The shells began to attack in a cover-style manner as if they were not allowed, causing considerable damage to the Demon Wolf Cavalry.
However, the damage was not limited to the speed of the Demon Wolf Cavalry. At the beginning, when the Demon Wolf Warrior and the Red-skinned Demon were killed by shells, the Demon Wolf Cavalry immediately accelerated and headed straight to the moat under the Iron City!
When the first demon wolf cavalry jumped high in front of the moat, on the terrace on the first floor of the Iron City, the mage wearing an ice blue robe once again condensed his gesture. This time the brave man who mastered the holy light around her did not stop it...
The moat surging instantly, lifting up a water column to sweep the demon wolf cavalry into the river, and then wrapping up hundreds of demon wolf cavalry that leaped up later - the moat turned into a water dragon with flowing illusion light, constantly devouring the demon wolf cavalry that rushed over like a tide.
When the demon wolf cavalry who was trapped at the bottom of the river climbed up along the walls of the Iron City again with his powerful vitality and killing instinct, hundreds of cavalrymen had fallen into the water in the moat; it was also at this moment that the water dragon gradually became cold and the cold air became an ice dragon with its teeth and claws!
Ice thorns, ice scales, ice crampons... are all sharp blades that can kill the Demon Wolf Cavalry. The first Demon Wolf Cavalry who rushed to the city became ice sculptures in the moat.
Then, the ice sculptures were fragmented, and the hideous broken limbs and ice chips turned into an ice storm under the steel city, sweeping towards the demon wolf cavalry that rushed toward the subsequently, further causing damage!
The moat was also transported by this formation of spells. At this moment, the mage with an ice blue robe on the wall was already shining with ice crystals, turning into a solid-colored ice man and stepped down from the city. He faced the marching route of the Demon Wolf Cavalry and fought back against the formation of the Demon Expeditionary Force.
Move forward.
Behind her, the brave man who mastered the holy light held back his tears: "Farewell forever, my dear..."
Then the Holy Light Brave raised his palm: "The king's tent is empty... Before you die... I will get some death debt for you..."
While the brave raised his palm, he also carried out the holy light - a holy white light condensed in his hand, like a sudden rising sun, then penetrated through the clouds, falling under the king's tent more than ten miles away!
"Ah--" The nightmare female demon in the king's tent fled in panic, but seemed to be imprisoned by the holy light, and could never escape the wall of light without substance.
Li Yue was shocked - the record of Daimen Book does not mention the holy light illuminating the king's tent, which shows that... will the tactics of the Iron City change according to different situations?
Why is it so real?
Moreover, suddenly, Li Yue discovered... there is no absolutely safe place in this battlefield, even in the depths of the king's tent.
The holy light was shrouded by the king's tent, but the red-robed priest Redkot, who was doing the top of the mountain, was unresponsive and unmoved at all, as if the one who was dying was not a monster, but a insect.
With the illumination of the holy light, the torso of the Holy Light brave man on the Iron City was instantly shriveled, withered, and smiling, looking at the ice crystal mage who had just walked down the city; and the solid body of the ice crystal was soon covered with cracks under the biting and slashing of the Demon Wolf Cavalry, and then shattered, becoming an inconspicuous ice slag under the Iron City.
At the same time, the brave men who were sitting or lying on the terrace also acted - just like the mages and the Holy Light brave men in the ice blue robe, some of them drove spells, some jumped down the city walls, and fought with the culprits and demon wolf cavalry.
There are even more people, like the giant sword brave, who bravely rushed forward after killing dozens of demon wolf cavalry, and rushed straight to the siege beast five miles away that was carrying out preparations!
From the middle line where the siege beast is located to the city of Iron City, it is like a huge meat grinder, and both sides quickly reduce their personnel.
Li Yue also lowered her body and ran to the outside of the midline with Yingying. He imitated the last group of demon wolf cavalry and distanced two hundred meters away from the nearest elephant siege beast.
Facing the Iron City at this distance, the fierce battle under the city also fell into Li Yue's perception, the gunfire, artillery fire, and the humans who were fiercely resisting; the grim smiles, blood, and the fangs that were slashed into the air all brought great sense of reality.
If Li Yue hadn't been convinced that everything in this world was transformed by a river of blood, there would have even been a feeling of "this is reality" - the human and the demonic expeditionary force... would definitely use the death of one side as the end of his fate.
Then, Li Yue saw the elephant trunk of the siege beast beside him falling, turning into a red-robed priest.
The priest of the red robe chanted something and drew a long blood vessel from his wrist, covering the outside with a layer of dark red connective tissue.
The red-robed priest shook his blood vessels, but he did not make any new moves. He looked at the walls of the Iron City, as if he was waiting for something.
Li Yue was also observing, and finally, in the iron city, the already scattered red centipede, he saw Bosh, who was already swollen and about to explode... he was chopped into two groups by a sword by the human commander.
At this moment, Li Yue felt that his thoughts were stained with blood, and he had a strong fighting spirit, almost unable to control his body.
