"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom …" Continuous explosions sounded as if the entire city was being attacked by an airdrop. Argos' laser and explosion attacks on a single target did not reflect the bug in this skill at all, but in a battle like this, this skill was a little exaggerated.
This row of attacks, together with the explosion damage, instantly flattened the entire east wall of the city of Demons. Needless to say, the Demons above were killed by the explosion. But this did not seem to be good news for the undead because this guy had gone berserk …
It was already known that Argos' laser attacks basically had no cooldown time, and it could be fired in rows at will. Then … it was repeating this behavior now, and it was an attack without a fixed target at all. It seemed that it did not care where the enemy was at all, and it did not even care which direction was the enemy's and which was the friendly's. It directly began to fire lasers in all directions.
The consequences of this were very exaggerated because its lasers were followed by the explosion damage, and the range of the explosion was so large that even the undead army was affected.
Now the undead army had begun to suffer losses, and only a very small part of it was caused by the Demons here. Most of them were killed by Argos when he went berserk unconsciously or exploded. Of course, the casualties of the undead army were still small. Now the entire city of Demons had become hell, and countless civilians were killed and injured.
Ever since Argos crashed into the city gate, the civilians in the city of Demons had a bad feeling. It seemed that something bad was going to happen. The city gate was breached, and the smart people began to prepare to leave, but the problem was that they could not get out. Naturally, they could not go to the east gate, and the three gates were guarded by the Demons. At this time, of course, it was in a state of martial law, and entry and exit were prohibited, so they could not get out. But as the situation became worse, more and more civilians fled in the direction of these three gates. The explosions were coming from the city, which meant that the city had been breached. They all wanted to run out before the enemy attacked them. The three gates were blocked by tens of thousands of civilians. They all wanted to run out, which immediately led to a second round of riots.
In fact, this kind of riot usually wouldn't happen. Even now, each city gate was guarded by 3000 to 4000 Demon soldiers. Although there were many civilians, all the civilians knew that without provocation, they wouldn't dare to start a conflict. These thousands of soldiers were more than enough to maintain order. However, the problem still lay with the lower-ranked soldiers. As mentioned before, most of them were locals and had just joined the army not long ago. What happened here was that most of the refugees knew the soldiers who were defending the city. Some of them were even relatives or friends of the soldiers who were defending the city. This was terrible. For example, if your father wanted to go out of the city and ask you to open the gate, how could you not listen? Or your girlfriend cries and wants to run away, and you don't care?
Most of the soldiers had just joined the army and lacked a sense of honor. Of course, the words of their families were more important. However, the commanding officers of these city gates were still fine. Of course, they had to maintain order. However, most of them were nobles and didn't have much affection for the civilians. The most important thing was that they were all veterans and lacked experience in leading new soldiers.
In their opinion, the best way to deal with the civilians causing trouble was to make an example out of them. They would arrest the few who caused the most trouble and beat them to death if they dared to resist. If it were a regular army, this wouldn't be a problem. The civilians would be scared and cower. But … this wasn't a regular army. Asking these new soldiers to beat up their parents? Wasn't that asking them to die?
Chaos broke out at the three city gates almost at the same time. There was no undead army to fight them at all. They began to kill each other. At this point, the Demons' city defense forces were basically wiped out. The most troublesome thing was that the city defense headquarters was nowhere to be found. The remaining 30,000 inner city reserves were in a state where they couldn't receive orders at all.
However, it seemed like the soldiers were no longer the biggest problem in this battle because the situation was a little out of control. The reason was that Argos had gone berserk. Now, Argos had struggled out of the ruins and floated into the air again. However, it seemed like this guy was really angry. He was now attacking everywhere indiscriminately.
This indiscriminate attack not only caused heavy casualties to the civilians and soldiers, but also affected the players in the Demons' main city. To be honest, the players on the Demons' side were used to siege battles. Most players knew the current situation of the Demons. They were being attacked by both the humans and the undead. Moreover, when they fought, they attacked the players as well. This had happened many times in other Demons' cities. Now, the Demons were used to it. Once there was a war, they would be sending themselves to their deaths. The players spent most of their time in the wild, leveling up and completing quests. They only returned to the city when they needed to replenish their supplies. This was tolerable. At most, they would move to a slightly further place to replenish their supplies. Now, there were smart guilds that had started to build guild territories in places where supplies were difficult to replenish. This was a huge profit. However, this was only applicable to other cities. The main cities were different. There were too many players in the main cities, and they had to return. Business activities had to be done here. Hence, there were still many players in the city.
The main cities were at war. Most of the players were just watching the show. This had nothing to do with them. After all, it wasn't a quest. Killing the enemy's soldiers wouldn't give them EXP. If they were killed, they would lose 10% EXP and might even lose equipment. It was a thankless task. Who would go? Some players went offline immediately. Some players watched the show and recorded it. It was a good show. It was like an epic movie.
However, this indiscriminate attack was a little exaggerated. For example, the famous Dragon's Domain, the number one guild of the Demons. The most prosperous shop in the main city's business district, a five-storey gold shop, was directly smashed into ruins by Argos's cannon. The guild leader of Dragon's Domain, Yuan Xing, was dumbfounded for a long time when he heard this news. He had spent a lot of effort on this level 5 shop. It had only been opened for less than a month, but it was smashed into ruins before he could even recover his investment.
This made him want to cry. Many ordinary players also suffered. For example, you found a super secretive NPC in the main city of the Demons. After spending half a month with him and completing a lot of Favorability Quests, you finally triggered a hidden quest. Just now, while you were doing the hidden quest, Argos directly fired a cannon at the NPC. The NPC on this side died, and it showed that you had failed the quest … Who could you complain to?
The main city of the Dwarves was also attacked by the Undead. However, those who were injured were basically the main city's NPCs. The players didn't suffer any losses. There were very few Dwarven players to begin with, and the NPC soldiers didn't take the initiative to find trouble with the players. Both sides were relatively harmonious. Although the current Dwarven main city had a new emperor, it had nothing to do with the players. They could do whatever they wanted without any impact.
However, this time, the siege by the Demons was exaggerated. The main reason was that Argos attacked indiscriminately. The Demons wanted to curse, but there was nothing they could do. This was because the guy in the sky was too ferocious. He could kill a row of them with a single attack. They couldn't defeat this boss at all.
On the other hand, the Undead were also in trouble. They were now dispersing in the direction of the Nephilim palace. Of course, they were inevitably attacked by Argos indiscriminately. Once they were hit, they would fall in large numbers. Although it was only a short distance from the city gate to the palace, just passing through it was like passing through a hail of bullets. The losses were a little big.
"My lord, we're here." The Luch team had already arrived near the inner gate of the palace. At this time, the Undead troops that had arrived gradually began to converge. Before the battle began, the number of Undead troops had decreased significantly. Moreover, many teams had to take a detour because of the ruins blocking the way. They hadn't arrived yet.
"The palace is in front of us!" Luch remembered Li Huailin's order. Seeing that the number of people was almost enough, he stood on a platform and shouted to the surrounding Undead soldiers, "His Highness's order is to rush into the palace and capture the Demons' royal family alive. We are only one step away from victory. There are still some new Demons inside, so there's nothing to worry about. What we have to do is to rush in! Those who capture the Demons' emperor, Bayzera, will be promoted by three levels. Those who capture other members of the Demons' royal family will be promoted by two levels. The other Demons' ministers will be promoted by one level. Everyone, charge! "
The morale-boosting command raised the morale of all the Undead soldiers. Luch waved his hand and took the lead to charge. However, as soon as he took a step forward, everyone suddenly felt a white light flash in front of them. Then, they saw a white light shooting from the sky behind them, directly sweeping through the tower of the palace of the Demons in front of them. In an instant, the conspicuous black tower was split into two.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom …" Then, a row of neat explosions sounded. The palace of the Demons in front of them exploded.
"F * ck!" Luch was dumbfounded. What should I do now? My target exploded … How the f * ck am I supposed to play?
"My Lord, what should we do?" The soldier next to him asked immediately.
"I … How would I know?" Luch didn't know either. Li Huailin's order was to stop at the palace. Now that the palace had exploded, how could they rush in?
Just as Luch was having a headache, a gust of wind blew beside him. Luch looked up and saw Li Huailin riding a Bone Dragon.
"Your Highness, the palace has exploded," Luch said hurriedly.
"Go and clear the area. Kill all the soldiers. Try to save the royal ministers," Li Huailin said hurriedly. "I will ask the guy above to stop."
"Yes, Your Highness," Luch replied immediately.
