Devil's Journey

Chapter 323
The northern counties of the Griffin Kingdom, on the vast plain, except for the three southwest counties, have become a chaotic paradise for demons. Demons can be seen everywhere, and those humans who did not evacuate in time have all been physically destroyed. Disappeared.

The Snake God Sect lost to the demons, so they had to turn to the Hengduan Mountains, and even had some minor conflicts with the Dwarf Kingdom. Fortunately, due to the threat of the demons, the minor conflicts did not turn into major conflicts.

These demons also scattered for a time and acted on their own, but when the powerful dragon demon Korokia came, the demons all worshiped under the fist of this demon with abundant martial arts.

Relying on the strong magic charm and fists, Korokia became the commander of millions of demons. He was full of ambition for a while. After a beating.

Korokia became even more arrogant, and even felt that the devil marshal was not worthy of him, so Korokia racked his brains to come up with a more famous name.

"It's called the Marshal of the Universe!" Korokia slapped his hands, and settled on this extremely resounding title. Of course, the arrogance is the arrogance. Rogia was very filial and bestowed the title of 'Emperor of the Universe' on Demon God's father.

Soon Korokia's title spread to all the demons, and all the demons thought the title was too good. There was even a demon general who had a whim and wanted to call himself a "general of the universe" 'The appellation.

This is both attractive and lower than Korokia, but it is a pity that the cosmic marshal Korokia is relatively small-minded, and he directly beat the demon general half to death, and then other demons dared not follow suit.

After Cosmos Marshal Korokia finally tamed the millions of demons under his command through physical means, the weather started to turn cold again.

And it's colder than last year, the demons will not be frozen to death by this cold, but most demons still prefer hot attributes, unless they stay in cold areas for a long time, in that case, the attributes of the demons themselves may There will be a shift, from fire resistance bonus to ice resistance.

It is difficult for the chaotic and restless demons to gather together for a long time. Even if Korokia suppressed all dissatisfaction with force, it could not prevent the extremely high attrition rate after the demons gathered together.

Although from a positive point of view, as the loss increases, the surviving demons will become stronger, and there are many demons who have some small accidents when they "friendly exchanges" with each other, and then the surviving demons are all unstoppable. Be careful, advanced.

Then this newly advanced demon may also inadvertently 'loss'.

In short, such things happen too often. If Korokia doesn't want his million-strong army to become a hundred thousand before he can fight, he can only fight as soon as possible.

The mighty demon army formed a group, like wildebeest migrating on the prairie, it was spectacular, but these demons, big and small, were not herbivores.

The Griffin King soon received the news that the demon army was attacking again, so he couldn't care less about stopping Selena's love affair. The original king wanted to 'marry' a handsome nobleman in the past to strengthen his relationship with Sai Linna. Princess Linna's connection and control.

But it's a pity that Princess Selena has long fallen in love with the merchant's son from Verlore, and she clearly stated to the king that her marriage will be decided by herself, unless the king sends someone to arrest her.

If it can be caught, King Charlie, who is furious at this time and scolds his unfilial daughter, will never be soft, but the problem is that the tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the south are only obeying the princess, and Princess Selena is even more powerful than a demigod. .

What to catch, who will catch it, who can catch it?What's more, at this time, the army of demons is overwhelming, even the irritable king has to calm down.

After calming down, think about it carefully. Her Royal Highness is actually filial. At least she knew to notify her. So under the mediation of Archbishop Roy, King Charlie could only hold his nose and accept the marriage.

The devil's matter is even more serious. It is unknown whether the new defense line built for half a year can block the devil's attack, which will determine the fate of the kingdom. As for the "filial" unfilial daughter, King Charles decided to ignore it for the time being.

However, Charlie, who is arrogant and conceited, also suppressed the idea of ​​asking his daughter for help. It was really embarrassing, so let's wait.

A gust of wind swept the ground, and the snow flowed with the wind, violently like a knife. The demons wore snow capes and appeared in the human field of vision in a mess.

In just half a year, the Griffin Kingdom built a defense line in the three counties in the north and southwest. Based on a large number of noble castles and towns, a large number of small and medium-sized fortresses were reinforced with alchemical cement and iron bones provided by the mage union.

Then, with the fortress of urban reconstruction as the core, three defensive belts were built in the front and back. The first one faced east and backed west, and behind it were the three southwestern counties in the north.

The second line of defense faces northeast, with its back to the southwest, and the third line of defense faces north, with its back to the middle of the kingdom. It is also the last line. It is not yet completed, and it is expected to be built until the arrival of the demon army.

Most of the northerners who had the conditions fled south to the central part of the kingdom, while the remaining two to three million people were detained and "voluntarily" joined the army to become farmers, soldiers and their families to fight against the demons.

All the villages in the wild were abandoned. The villages from the first to the second line were the first to be burned in the snowstorm. Most of the militia and their families were stuffed into the rebuilt small and medium-sized castles. They had to fight for themselves and their families. There were only a few officers. And nobles are responsible for commanding.

The main army of the kingdom will be stationed in medium and large castles and fortresses together with the private nobles who are unwilling to lose their territory and flee south. They are the core force of the defense line.

The king has already entered the third line of defense, while the eldest prince, who is also the crown prince, is stationed on the second line of defense, and has organized a mobile force, ready to provide support at any time.

The Mage Alliance also sent support forces, and the entire kingdom's army began to be forced to abandon traditions and adopt more new weapons.

Even the most conservative knights have to admit that the gun is easy to use. Although an elite archer can easily kill several gunners, it takes at least a few years for an elite archer to succeed.

As for crossbowmen, it is easier to train, but powerful crossbows still require soldiers with superior arm strength, and the cost of crossbows is actually not cheap. In comparison, the most basic front-mounted flintlock is really cheap.

Because of the high technology of mages, as long as there is demand, cheap firecrackers will soon develop from matchlocks to flintlocks. However, the more advanced technology of post-installed continuous firecrackers cannot be mass-produced, and the cost is still somewhat high.

However, flintlocks are already very powerful for those "voluntary" old peasants and soldiers. Most of these peasants and soldiers who don't even have a black iron rank, in the past, they would inevitably be slaughtered when facing little devils.

But with the blunderbuss in hand, everything is different. The peasants and soldiers have the possibility of leapfrogging and fighting for exchange.
