Devil's Journey

Chapter 13 The Demon Army Kills

There are about a hundred flying demons in the sky, most of which are Bronze Rank Winged Demons and Bat Demons. Winged Demons are tall, thin and ugly demons with a pair of large wings. They hold bows and crossbows in their hands. Weapons such as spears.

The bat demon is a demon that looks a bit like a big bat. It relies on screaming to convey panic, and at the same time it will dive rapidly, grab the victim with its sharp claws, and then take it to the sky and throw it down.

In addition, there are a few stronger and more ferocious giant winged demons and bloodthirsty demons, which are the upgraded versions of the winged demons and bat demons, ferocious demons of the silver rank.

These flying demons are constantly circling, dropping arrows or javelins, and pretending to pounce from time to time, so that the defenders have to devote a lot of energy to defending the sky, but even weapons such as bows and crossbows, It is also difficult to cause damage to air-to-air shooting, and both range and accuracy are greatly affected.

Some panicked soldiers often shoot arrows hastily under the feint attack of the demons, and then they are caught by the bat demons who are really swooping down into the sky. Fragments, broken limbs, internal organs and blood fell like rain and hail, making the soldiers guarding the city even more frightened.

The demons on the ground surrounded them chaotically. A few demonized giant monsters turned into human catapults and threw stones the size of basketballs at the top of the city. Magical demons such as candle demons, frost demons, and poison demons also appeared. He would smash spells such as fireballs, ice spins, and poisonous smoke on the city wall in a mess, and many of them even hit the low-level demons piled up under the city.

Some melee demons of the Bronze rank, such as claw demons, ferocious demons, mantis demons, shadow demons, etc., will jump up to the top of the city, and then carry out extremely bloody killings. Most of the defenders are from the Black Iron rank. Soldiers, there are not many bronze-rank knights and sergeants, so naturally they can't stop these swarming demons, especially when some more powerful silver-rank demons rush into the battle, it will soon become a one-sided massacre .

Fortunately, there are also several silver-rank strongmen among the human beings who have joined the battle. With these powerful silver-rank professionals as the core, together with bronze-rank knights and sergeants, they led soldiers and mercenaries, and the adventurers bravely blocked the battle. In front of these ferocious demons.

Julian had already followed the magic flow to the city, with two crooked arrows sticking out of his shield, and the largest number of little devils crowded around the city. Some ran to cut down the city gate, and some wanted to climb up after stacking arhats. .

The demon officers didn't think about building ladders before the battle, or these impatient demon officers didn't want to waste time waiting.

A few giant monsters that had thrown stones hastily were commanded by the demon officer to hold them down at the bottom of the city. The four-meter-high giants were just enough for other little devils to climb up to the top of the city wall. Although Julian felt that these giant monsters It will win faster if the monster directly smashes the city gate and rushes in.

But who made Julian just an elite little devil at this time, and which powerful demon officer would heed the suggestion of a little devil.

Julian originally wanted to hide under the city for a while longer. The humans in the town don’t know if it’s been peaceful for a long time. It seems that they don’t know how to do dangerous operations such as wood rolling stones, golden juice fire oil, etc. It’s actually quite safe to hide under the city. Yes, demon allies may be more dangerous than human enemies by comparison.

But not long after, Julian noticed that a demon officer he didn't know seemed to see him. The bloodthirsty and ferocious smile made Julian shiver, and he shouted in his heart that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to paddle anymore, so Julian got up and ran to the nearest troll.

The demon was going to throw the iron spear in his hand to get rid of the cowardly little devil, but he didn't expect the little devil to be so cunning. He shook his head, and the demon officer threw the iron spear to the top of the wall again. The soldier with the spear was pierced through the neck by the flying iron spear. The powerful force completely tore the neck of the militiaman, and the flying head and gushing blood frightened the young soldier next to him.

Julian held the round shield and held a one-handed sword that was too long for him in his right hand. He jumped onto the top of the wall, screaming strangely, and danced the iron sword in his hand into a ball of sword shadows, cutting and scratching. Several friend demons.

Then Julian swiftly avoided the intentional accidental injury from the friendly demons amidst a burst of cursing. New demons kept flooding up the narrow city walls, making demons and humans crowded together. Many demons and humans voluntarily or unwillingly fell down the four-meter-high city wall.

If it's a silver-ranked demon or a professional, there's nothing wrong with it, and they can continue to fight by shaking their heads. As long as those bronze-ranked demons and professionals are not too unlucky and sprained their necks, they can continue to fight slowly. The weakest cannon fodder and the soldiers will inevitably suffer a lot of injuries.

If you are lucky, be smart and run away as soon as you are rolling and crawling. If you are unlucky, you will be hit by the falling person or demon, and the battle will spread to the inner side of the town wall.

Those powerful knights, mercenaries, and adventurers led the team to try their best to block the frantic pounce of the demons, and some crossbowmen would shoot deadly arrows from the arrow towers. Julian did not dare to rush to the front line, but he also Not daring to stay behind, he could only shrink his neck and follow the swarming magic flow forward.

After all, the number of human defenders is too small, especially the strong ones. The battle quickly moved from the top of the city wall to the interior of the city wall. After those silver-rank professionals were besieged by demons, most of the remaining defenders began Collapsed, even if these soldiers knew that their homeland was behind them, it would not help to flee, but it was a pity that fear had completely crushed their will.

After the demon army was killed from the top of the city, massacres regardless of men, women, and children began quickly in the town. There were many remaining defenders and civilians relying on houses to start street fighting, but this was of no avail.

Julian didn't follow and ran down the city, but got into the arrow tower on the city wall first. There were several broken corpses in the arrow tower. Only one wounded soldier tried to raise the crossbow in his hand, but was caught by Mr. Julian. Presumptuously, he pierced his throat.

Looking at the blood staining the blade, Julian, who had killed for the first time, found that he didn't seem to have any special feelings. The young man who grew up in a peaceful age was already used to blood at this time.

After adjusting his mentality, Julian took out a intact heavy crossbow and a bag of about 20 crossbow bolts from the corpse without hesitation.

Such a heavy crossbow is an elite weapon. Although it is not a magic weapon, its power should not be underestimated.

(For setting details, please refer to the setting chapter.)
Although Julian is not tall, after being promoted to the bronze rank, his arms have nearly [-] pounds of strength, which is enough to pull this kind of heavy crossbow. As for the chain mail on the corpse, Julian tried it, and he was of poor shape. Putting on too much was too much of a hindrance, so I had to give up.

　Prepare a map of this plane and try it out.
