The dark red cloud of fire surged up and down like a banner, sweeping through a group of shadow demons. The shadow demons that were swept by the fire cloud all stopped moving, and then their bodies dispersed. The part that came into contact with the fire cloud was instantly annihilated, turning into nothingness. The pressure in front of Allen lessened, and the Shadow Demon fell. He saw the shield wall defense line formed by the King Of Mountains warriors. As soon as they saw Allen, the warriors split up. Allen raised his saber and passed through. The shield wall closed again, and then there was a sharp sound of sharp claws scratching the surface of the shield.
Behind the defensive line, Allen saw Edward. From time to time, he pointed at the enemy formation, and a whirlwind blew through the Shadow Demon. The Shadow Demon lost its balance due to the whirlwind, and the infantry's muskets would shoot at them. Edward did not directly participate in the battle, but used his ability to constantly interfere with the Shadow Demon's attack, creating opportunities for his own warriors. Another whirlwind was released, and more than a dozen Shadow Demons were swept into the air. When they fell down again, they caused chaos. Edward sighed and said, "We won't be able to defend for long. They have reinforcements."
"I just found out that I miscalculated. I thought I could eat them." Allen smiled bitterly and said resolutely, "Prepare to break through. I hope we can get rid of them."
Edward shook his head and said, "That would be even more disadvantageous to us. I've just asked Ian. There's no other place in the Acabi Corridor that can limit the number of Shadow Demons, at least not on today's journey. "
"But defending to the death is not a solution."
"I know, so we have to think of another way. There are many natural grottoes here, and there might be tunnels connecting the grottoes. "
"You mean, move from here to other grottoes?"
"That's probably what I mean."
As the two of them conversed, howls rang out from behind the defensive line. Allen raised his head and saw that new Shadow Demons had appeared on the cliffs on both sides of the curve of the rift valley. They crawled on the cliff like lightning, like a gray tide surging against the mountain wall on both sides. Above the defensive line, the Inch Fire Archer began to shoot at the cliff. Shadow Demons continuously fell from the gray tide on both sides. Unfortunately, the blank space created by the Flame Fighting Rifle would soon be filled by other Shadow Demons.
It was as if all the Shadow Demons in the entire Land of the Shadow had poured into the rift valley. The sheer number of them was enough to make one's scalp numb.
Allen immediately ordered the Inch Fire Archer to leave the cave above. Otherwise, once the gray tide arrived, the men would be instantly drowned. Fares roared and ordered the defensive line to retreat into the cave. He planned to use the space in the cave to restrict the Shadow Fiend's attack. After the Inch Fire Archer came down, he retreated to the rear of the defensive line with Lucy and Adele. After quickly changing the magazine, he raised his gun and stood by. At this time, the King Of Mountains's Shield Wall had retreated to the entrance of the cave. The Shadow Fiend's Gray Tide attacked the Shield Wall again and again, but to no avail. From time to time, Lola, Regis, and the other Rankers would cross the shield wall and charge into the gray wave of Shadow Devils to reduce the pressure on the defensive line.
At this moment, strands of lime rose from the top of the cave. Allen raised Gojoseon and held his breath as he looked up at the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, a Shadow Demon stuck out its head. As soon as it stuck out its head, its head immediately blossomed and it was shot to death by an archer. Then, the heads of the Shadow Demons popped out. As expected, they attacked from above the cave. Gojoseon swung down forcefully, and Allen shouted, "Fire!"
The Flame Fighting Rifle roared again, and a rain of bullets swept towards the top of the cave. The Shadow Demon was constantly swept down. Even if the Shadow Demon didn't die, it would still be killed by the soldiers below. Allen told Lucy and the other two girls to command the archers to block the Shadow Demon attacking from above. He pounced towards the defensive line and stood at the front of the defensive line with Regis and the others, resisting the Shadow Demon's attack. The Shadow Demon continued to attack like a madman, and even Allen felt a great deal of pressure. As far as his eyes could see, those ugly, gray-white faces occupied almost all of his line of sight. The only thing Allen could do was to mechanically swing his arm and spit out Red King Explosive Flames. Every time he slashed, he would cut down a Shadow Demon. Even so, the Shadow Demon seemed to be endless, and its Origin Energy was rapidly consumed like a flood that had opened a floodgate.
"Retreat! Retreat! " This was the third time Fares had ordered the defensive line to retreat, giving up nearly ten meters of space at the entrance of the cave. However, as they moved inward, the space in the cave gradually narrowed, causing the defensive line to be further tightened, making it difficult for the Shadow Demon to break through. The explosive flames on Allen's saber had already disappeared. At this moment, he had to save the Origin Energy to activate Gojoseon's explosive flames. He carefully used every bit of Origin Energy and squeezed every bit of physical strength, just to defend his position for a few more seconds.
At this moment, the ground trembled slightly. Allen cut off a few heads and looked out of the cave. He immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. Two trolls were dragging their warhammers over with large strides. The warhammers plowed through the ground, lifting the Gray Shadow Devils on both sides. Allen pointed in the direction of the troll, "Adele!"
At the end of the shout, the troll's entire thigh and knee flew out, and at the same time, a large amount of flesh was removed. The sound of the sniper rifle reverberated in the cave, causing people's ears to rumble endlessly. The troll staggered and fell, pressing down the dozen or so Shadow Demons in front of him, exposing his big head at the same time. How could Adele be polite? She fired another shot at the troll's head. The big fellow's head immediately exploded, and he died on the spot without even having the time to scream miserably.
However, at this moment, the other troll had already rushed to the entrance of the cave. The troll raised its warhammer and let out a muffled thunderous roar. A hammer smashed into the mountain wall at the entrance of the cave, causing the earth to shake. Large pieces of the mountain wall were smashed into pieces and fell to the ground, crushing the Shadow Demons that were still rushing into the cave. The troll was still smashing the cave, and rocks kept falling down. Rocks of all sizes began to block the light outside the cave. Suddenly, blood splashed everywhere on the troll's chest, and Adele fired another shot. The troll was pushed back a step by the kinetic energy of the sniper bullet, and its chest caved in. Seeing that he was about to fall, a crimson figure jumped onto the troll's head. It was another Crimson Shadow Demon. The Crimson Shadow Demon stabbed his fingers into both sides of the troll's head, and a fierce glint appeared in the troll's eyes.
When an unnatural scarlet red appeared on his skin, the troll madly rushed to the entrance of the cave and smashed it fiercely. Its body was shot one after another, but the troll did not die. Adele even blew off half of its head. Seeing this, Allen could only ignore the consumption of Origin Energy. Gojoseon swept across, and a scarlet ray of light sliced through the hole. A large number of Shadow Demons fell like straw, and the ray of light sliced through the troll's waist. The troll was immediately cut in half at the waist, and its body slid down in dislocation. The remaining half of its head looked at Allen with one eye and stopped breathing with unwillingness.
Allen slashed out with his saber and felt his heartbeat accelerate. He finally felt a sense of exhaustion in his body. He almost wanted to lie down and sleep, but he didn't dare to let himself sit down like this. At this moment, the ground shook again. Allen looked over and saw the third troll charge forward. They didn't even have time to react. The troll heavily crashed into the mountain wall at the entrance of the cave.
The entire cave shook violently. The cracks in the Great Dao extended from the entrance of the cave, and countless sand and stones scattered down. Allen's eyes widened as he roared, "Retreat! Retreat, quickly! "
Boom! Under the troll's repeated attacks, the cave finally collapsed. Boulders fell like rain, smashing the Shadow Demon to death and blocking the light. Allen retreated with the warriors until they reached the middle of the cave. Only then did the shaking stop. However, it was dark all around them. Only when someone lit a torch did they finally see the environment in the cave. Allen casually slashed and killed the last Shadow Demon. He looked at the densely packed rocks blocking the exit and sighed, "Now we have to be cave dwellers."
Edward narrowed his eyes and said, "This joke isn't funny at all."
Fares helped the injured warriors settle down and walked over. He knocked on the pile of rocks and said, "Perhaps we can blow them up."
Allen touched a crack and shook his head. "That will only make the situation worse. The Hundred Eye Cave is already weak, and now it has been loosened by the troll. If we blow it up again, we probably won't be able to blow up the rocks, but will instead be buried alive. "
"Then what do we do now?" Lucy asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, there will be a way. Everyone rest first." Allen pulled her and walked to the back. Fortunately, the cave was big and deep enough. The carriages and horses gathered in a circle at the back of the cave. The field in the middle was covered with a military blanket with some wounded soldiers lying on it. Allen walked around the wounded soldiers and did not say anything. He only personally tied up the bandages and wiped away the blood stains.
But after one round, the soldiers' gazes were a little different. Allen patted Fares on the shoulder and said, "Let everyone eat and drink." He then walked to the side of Sean and the other merchants. Sean saw him and stood up. Allen glanced at them and said, "We will go out."
Sean nodded heavily.
"Sir! Sir! "Someone called from behind. Allen turned around and saw Abel running over. He was panting, but his face was full of excitement. He pointed to the back of the cave and said, "There's wind, there's wind."
It was undoubtedly good news that there was air flow. Allen's spirits were lifted when he heard this. He patted Abel on the shoulder and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Deep in the cave, Abel held a torch and stuck it to a rough and uneven mountain wall. Sure enough, as soon as the torch was close to it, the flames swayed. The Maritans were the most sensitive to the airflow. Edward immediately sensed it carefully and nodded. "The wind is coming from behind. Through the vibration of the airflow, I can feel that there is a huge space behind this wall. It's hard to say if we can get out, but at least we won't be buried alive here. "
Allen pulled out Gojoseon and said, "You guys step back, let me try."
Apart from the explosive flames, Gojoseon itself was also extremely sharp. After Allen activated his Origin Energy, the blade emitted a three-inch scarlet light, making it even sharper. He walked to the wall and stabbed down. Red King easily pierced into the mountain wall. Allen slashed down with his saber and connected it a few times, cutting a square gap in the wall. Allen looked at the people behind him and gently pushed with his hand. The mountain rocks fell forward with a crash, and the sound of rocks falling to the ground echoed continuously. Although it was dark in front of him, it was just as Edward had said. There was indeed a huge space behind the cave.
Abel walked over with a torch and threw it into the darkness. When the flames streaked across the dark world, Allen saw towering pillars. They propped up this huge and empty space in the belly of the mountain. This place seemed to be the stone hall where giants lived. Outside the cave, there was a stone path along the mountain wall that led to the underground stone hall. When the torch disappeared into the darkness, the people inside the wall still hadn't come back to their senses.
