Beast Throne

Chapter 786 The Road Out of the City ([-])

The task of the royal knights is to stop the big demons, in case they attack the large troops on the ground, even if it means paying their lives, they have already realized this.Similarly, although Ferlin was very worried about Nanna's safety, she had to force herself to believe that Nanna had the ability to protect herself, and she couldn't disperse too much energy on her.

Wu Tong obeyed Fei Lin's instructions and did not act rashly.The battle in the air is getting more and more fierce. Even though the information of the big devil has been exchanged at the cost of life, it still cannot make up the gap in strength between the two sides.Except for Nanna and the other captains, the other royal knights could only gather together and use their large shields to resist the attack of the great demon, without the strength to fight back at all.Even so, the cunning big demons can continue to seize the gap, using demon spells or their powerful physical strength to injure or kill opponents.Often, the sacrifice of four or five royal knights can be exchanged for the death of one great demon. This is the result of Nanna showing her might and facing dozens of great demons alone.

If it continues like this, it is very likely that the famous Royal Knights will be wiped out here, but at this time they can only rely on themselves.Although the battle in the air was tragic, the situation on the ground was not much better.Although at the beginning they used various means to slow down the demon's footsteps, and immediately widened the distance between the fleeing humans and the demon army, the physical gap between the two sides was too great.Even with the extra powerful stimulant added to the Lightness of Wind, it is impossible for an ordinary human being to run past a demon with only two legs.Especially after all the low-level demons blocking the way have been turned into meat paste, the high-level demon group, mainly composed of nightmare knights and two-headed hellhounds, has separated from the main force and is gradually closing the distance between them and humans .

There is no doubt that once they catch up, it will immediately lead to a massacre.There are too many of them, and it is impossible to stop them all even if the great magicians try their best.What's more, the great magician is not without danger. Once he falls into the siege of demons, it is very likely that he will fall here.

The situation is very critical, but no one can deal with it. Being able to get to this point has exhausted everyone's minds, and the rest can only take one step at a time.Wu Tong observed carefully for a while, and after calculating in his mind, he came to a not-so-good conclusion: if the current speed remains unchanged, at least one-third of the fleeing civilians will be caught up by demons before leaving the city , died under their sharp claws.And this is just an estimation based on pure speed. Once the killing starts, no one can predict what will happen.Not to mention that it is impossible for the demons to stop after chasing at the gate of the city. If there is no order, they will keep chasing and killing.

"What should I do?" Wu Tong was anxious, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he denied them one by one.It might be a good idea to capture the king first, but it won't work against the demons. If Jiabo is caught, the demons out of control will probably become even crazier.Besides, Jiabo would not give such an opportunity, this guy is extremely cunning.Don't look at her standing defenseless in midair, seeming to be able to catch her casually, Wu Tong believes that Jiabo must have been fully prepared.

After much deliberation, there is no shortcut, and there is only a hard block.Film's potion was very effective. Hundreds of thousands of weak residents had been running wildly for nearly 10 minutes, but there was no sign of slowing down at all, as if they had lost the ability to think, and they were still running frantically towards the outside of the city.But the demons are not to be outdone, the fastest Nightmare Knights have gradually caught up, and behind them is an endless army of demons.Wu Tong, who was at the back of the line, could even hear their heavy breathing, but he didn't know if it was due to fatigue or excitement.

"We can't wait any longer, let's start." Just as the Nightmare Knight was getting closer and closer to everyone, almost less than a hundred meters away, Filin, who had been preparing for a long time, finally gave the order to attack and took the lead.She didn't take out any potion this time, instead she began to chant a spell silently like an ordinary magician, obviously preparing a large-scale magic.

It is relatively rare to see Ferrin using large-scale magic. If it were done at other times, other great magicians might be interested in studying it, but it is obviously not suitable now.Just after Filin gave the order, several earth magicians represented by Helu also shot together.

The offensiveness of earth magic is not outstanding among the various magics. It is better at breaking the city rather than fighting head-on. Facing the large number of menacing nightmare knights and two-headed hellhounds, earth magic seems to have no way to deal with it.The actual situation is exactly the same. Several great earth magicians worked together, but what was practical was the most common ground stabbing technique.

Ground stab technique, that is, to create a thrust and attack the opponent from below.As the most representative earth magic, almost everyone has a deep impression on it.There is no other reason. At the initial stage, ground stabbing is almost the only attack method for earth magicians, and it is very effective.After all, a sharp stalagmite suddenly drilled out of the ground, and it was difficult to avoid it, but the vital parts were attacked, and it hurts even thinking about it.

But as the strength grows, the ground stabbing technique is useless.Everyone is not stupid. After the strength is improved, no one will stand there stupidly, waiting for the stalagmites to appear.The ground thorn technique has become easier to dodge, not to mention, even powerful fighters can step back the ground thorn with one foot, but it will make the earth magician suffer a dark loss.

It's impossible for the great mages to be unaware of the flaws of the ground stabbing technique, but they didn't intend to use it to cause damage.The actual situation is that as soon as a few great earth magicians made a move, thousands of ground thorns suddenly appeared on the ground that was originally fairly neat. Then a stone forest was formed.

Although the scene is spectacular, as mentioned at the beginning, the lethality of the ground thorns is very limited.Except for a few unlucky demons who were pierced through their vitals, the other demons were at best scratched.Especially those powerful nightmare knights, they are covered in armor, and their abdomen is no exception, even if they are hit by ground thorns in the front, they can't pierce the thick armor.

The earth magicians didn't even think about being able to kill the demon. In fact, they didn't even look at it. After casting the spell, they hurried back to the front of the team. They were also responsible for opening the way. They were the busiest people at present.Although not many demons were killed, the ground stabbing technique was still very effective. At least those stalagmites blocked the way of the demons, and they couldn't spread their hoofs and run wildly.

This is not enough, the stone forest is just magic, it will not exist forever, it can only be delayed for a while.The demons didn't wait. Although the stalagmites were hard, they were not strong enough for the swords in the hands of the Nightmare Knights. After a short pause, the Nightmare Knights slashed and slashed, or simply slammed their bodies, and forcibly opened a way out. .As for the other demons, it is even more labor-saving. Their bodies are not as huge as the Nightmare Knight. The stone forest is not a stone wall, so they cannot block their footsteps. In the middle, they quickly surpassed the Nightmare Knight, and each of them screamed and seemed very excited to be able to do so.

If an experienced human general led these demons, he would certainly not ignore the weird scene in front of him, but the demons never cared about it.Just when the demons were about to pass through the stone forest, Ferrin's magic was finally completed.

Since he became the dean of San Siro Academy, due to his status, Ferrin seldom made a move. Even if he did, he only used some small magic, or simply used potions to solve it.Besides, her poison is indeed exceptional, and usually one dose can solve the problem.This time was different, like a beginner magic apprentice, Flynn floated in mid-air, and finished reciting the spell seriously.When she fell, a group of purple clouds also descended, and soon enveloped the entire stone forest.

Ferrin is famous for his poison magic, and he used to be a water magician, so he is especially good at mixing toxins in poisonous rain and poisonous fog, which is full of lethality.In the past, there was a group of bandits around the Principality of San Siro. They often killed people and robbed them among several principalities. Once they were besieged, they would move to another country, or simply hide in the mountains to hide.Coupled with the fact that this group of people is not weak, several duchies have worked hard and failed to wipe them out, which can be described as extremely annoying.

But later the bandit was dealt with by a small adventure group, and it was unscathed.There are not many people in this adventure group, but all of them are very powerful. Among them are the young Feilin and Yigu.The exact process is unknown now, only that after the battle between the two sides, the bandits hid in their lair deep in the mountains and prepared to exhaust the supplies of the adventure group.There seemed to be nothing wrong with their strategy, because after only one day, the adventure group left without even launching a tentative attack.But since then, the bandits have never appeared again.Half a year later, everyone discovered that they had all died in the mountains, and only bones remained.

How the bandits died has always been a mystery.It was not until many years later, when Feilin and Yigu became a couple, that the triumphant Yigu revealed the secret.It's very simple. That night, Ferrin summoned a highly poisonous mist, and the bandits were all poisoned without knowing it. They didn't know what happened until the moment of death.

Since then, film has become an existence that no one dares to mess with.He could poison a group of powerful bandits without knowing it, and naturally he could poison anyone without knowing it. No one could afford to provoke such a person.

As soon as Feilin made a move, the reason for using the ground stab technique was explained.The stone forest is not for killing the enemy, but for blocking the footsteps of the demons and gathering them together to create conditions for the film to poison.Everyone thought so, but the actual situation was a little bit different. The demons did not fall to the ground and died after inhaling the poisonous mist. They didn't even vomit blood. Instead, they grinned and shouted , more ferocious than before.If there is no other effect, the demons will catch up with humans faster, and a massacre seems inevitable.

But the situation changed immediately. Those demons who had been bloodied were already full of enthusiasm, as if they didn't want to wait for a moment.A hellhound that was originally inconspicuous suddenly became fierce, turned around and bit the neck of another demon, and the blood was immediately splashed.The strength of a hellhound is not enough to kill a demon with one bite, but this hellhound is an exception. It killed its compatriots with a single bite, and it has a tendency to evolve into a two-headed hellhound.

However, this hellhound was not satisfied, its dog gall had turned into a leopard gall, this guy didn't care about swallowing the flesh and blood in his mouth, so he shot again, biting a horse's leg tightly.That horse leg obviously belonged to a nightmare knight.

As a high-level demon, Nightmare Knight already has a preliminary sanity.It never thought that the lowly hellhound dared to bite its own leg. You know, even a two-headed hellhound would not dare to provoke itself. Does this hellhound think it has three heads?
Demons are demons, and Nightmare Knight has neither the interest nor the IQ to think about why the Cerberus went mad, so it adopted the simplest and most effective method to solve this problem, which is to chop off the head of the Cerberus with one knife.But just when the nightmare knight was about to continue chasing and killing, he found that its path was blocked again.This time it was not the ground thorns that blocked the way, but the crazy demons.

The demons went crazy. After inhaling the poisonous mist, they not only lost blood, but also lost a trace of their sanity, which was already pitiful.They couldn't suppress the desire to kill in their hearts at all, and no matter who the opponent was, in short, all other creatures except themselves became their targets.

The poisonous mist is not effective for all demons. The Nightmare Knight and other high-ranking demons are only more excited, and have not lost their sanity.But this is enough. After all, high-level demons are only a minority in the demon army. Usually, they can make countless low-level demons surrender by coercion alone, but this method is not effective now.On the contrary, for some reason, those mad low-level demons are more willing to attack the huge high-level demons, once they bite, they will never let go, and they will never stop dying.

Film is worthy of being film, and it seems to have solved the problem at once.Although the poisonous mist is limited and it is impossible to affect all the demons, with such a commotion, the demon army does not have enough time to pursue.But at this moment, a long howl suddenly came from a distance, and when everyone looked back, the little fire of hope that had just been ignited in their hearts was extinguished again.

The two-headed demon ape that had been fighting with the Hellstone giant disappeared...
