Report

After Deland City, it was Perigo, then Edland, then Somibe, then Holbeach, Kozlian, and finally Rey …

These cities were all prosperous human cities. Each of them could match Blackhot City. However, when the middle corps arrived, many cities had been scorched. On the way, they passed by many deserted towns, farmlands and roadside corpses. The cruelty of the holy war and the harm to humans appeared in front of Zhang Tie's eyes over and over again in the past 10 days.

After Deland City, the demon corps almost didn't encounter any large-scale formal resistance on the way all the way to the south. All the human cities had been abandoned and burned before the arrival of the demon corps. Even the entire Republic of Symbian seemed to have become a deserted country, not to mention these cities. Women and children had started to evacuate 2 years ago. Soldiers started to evacuate after the human defense line collapsed in Selnes Theater of Operations. Especially after Deland City was collapsed, the remaining army of the Republic of Symbian seemed to lose their courage at a stroke. Nobody would like to defend a city and wait for the arrival of the super demon corps anymore.

The combination of almost 10 million demonized puppets corps and the super demon corps was indeed unstoppable.

Speaking of the super demon corps, Zhang Tie finally saw it in Holbeach over the past 10 days.

Zhang Tie didn't know how to describe the feeling when he saw that super demon corps. When almost 100,000 LV 9 fighters suddenly stood in front of him, he didn't know how to describe that feeling either. It was an indescribable shock for Zhang Tie.

Before the super demon corps appeared, Zhang Tie saw at least 4,000-5,000 wing demons hovering in the sky like a dark cloud. They were hovering in all directions vigilantly and paying attention to the situation in all directions. After these wing demons arrived above Holbeach for less than 5 minutes, the super demon corps had appeared on the horizon in the distance like a black flame.

There was no earth-shaking or mountain-shaking sound. There was no clamor. Even the sound of almost 100,000 people running here from afar could be ignored. The super demon corps appeared at the foot of the city wall of Holbeach like a scorching wind blowing from afar. The wind stopped. Ten square formations of ten thousand people stood together silently. Although it was silent, the over 1 million demonized puppets outside the city wall were so scared that they couldn't help but move back one after another. Zhang Tie and Zhang Tie had turned into solemn and hard steel mountains.

At that moment, all the members of Three-eye Association who controlled the middle corps of Senel Clan and Arthur Clan were waiting for the arrival of the super demon corps outside the city of Holbeach. At the sight of this scene, everybody's face turned pale, including that employed knight of Senel Clan.

Even though Zhang Tie was just lying on a brick on the top of a broken archer tower on the city wall in the distance, Zhang Tie still couldn't believe it. Seeing such a scene, he was still greatly shocked.

If a LV 9 iron-armored demon stood in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie would not even raise his eyelids. Zhang Tie didn't even raise his eyelids. If 10 LV 9 iron-armored demons were standing in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie would feel a bit stressed; if 1,000 iron-armored demons were standing in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie would definitely turn around and escape; if 10,000 iron-armored demons were standing in front of Zhang Tie, even knights would make a detour. However, there were almost 100,000 LV 9 iron-armored demons in front of Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie didn't know how many military officers were above LV 9; however, Zhang Tie was clear that there were 6 knights in this demon corps. Additionally, there were 5 demon knights under the demon general's subordinates, one of whom had already fought to death in Selnes Theater of Operations. All this information was "accidentally" heard by Zhang Tie from the members of Three-eye Association clans these days.

'How could we resist such a super demon corps? ' Zhang Tie compared all the demon corps that he had seen and heard about with this super demon corps. He found that this super demon corps was almost unrivaled across Blackson Humans Corridor. Any human corps could only be slaughtered in front of this super demon corps, even if they used the tactic of human sea. Because the sharp battle saber composed of LV 9 iron-armored demons could easily cut open and tear apart the human corps which besieged them and escape away leisurely.

Perhaps, only by encircling this super demon corps in a specific narrow environment and cooperating with airship troop could they inflict heavy losses on it. However, the collapse of the human defense line in Selnes Theater of Operations had told everyone that such an ideal battlefield and battle environment would never appear. Selnes Theater of Operations once gathered the most powerful airship troop and the largest number of ground armored vehicles across Blackson Humans Corridor. However, the wing demons troop and demonized puppets corps had already dragged the two major human corps into a bottomless quagmire. Demons were not idiots. They would not stand there and wait for you to launch an attack. On the contrary, the demon general of this super demon corps was as cunning and intelligent as those well-known human generals.

The wing demons troop was the barrier and eyes of this super demon corps while the overwhelming demonized puppets corps was the shield and tentacles of this super demon corps. This super demon corps always moved weirdly behind the barrier, eyes, shield and tentacles. Only at the critical moment would they give a fatal blow to the human corps.

Like this moment, after the demon corps tore apart the human defense line in Selnes Theater of Operations, the demonized puppets corps divided into three parts and moved southward in coordination with each other. This super demon corps always lingered between the vanguard corps, the middle corps and the rear corps of the demonized puppets corps. Even the clan members of Three-eye Association didn't know where it was. Everybody only knew that this super demon corps led by the demon general would always stay within 300 miles of one of the three demonized puppets corps. Sometimes, it would be in the front; sometimes, it would be in the rear; sometimes, it would be in the left; sometimes, it would be in the right. It was totally unpredictable. Sometimes, this super demon corps would completely break away from the demonized puppets corps. It just commanded the military actions of the demonized puppets corps remotely. Nobody knew where they were, where they were going and what they were going to do.

Besides, Zhang Tie found that this super demon corps only had one rule, namely, this super demon corps would never encamp in the city. Even in Holbiqi City, this super demon corps just encamped outside the city, which was over 100 m away from the city wall of Holbiqi City.

Hua military experts always described the features of a powerful and invincible army — — as fast as the wind; as slow as a forest; as aggressive as a fire; as immovable as a mountain; as mysterious as a shadow; as fast as a lightning bolt. At the sight of this super demon corps, even though Zhang Tie didn't like to accept it emotionally, he knew that this super demon corps was the best one that he had ever seen.

At the sight of this super demon corps, Zhang Tie had realized that no other army could defeat this super demon corps except for troops on the same level. The experience in Selnes Theater of Operations had told everybody that only human troops above LV 9 could defeat LV 9 demons corps. In Selnes Theater of Operations, what caused the greatest damage to this super demon corps was not airship troops, armored troops or other human corps, but demon hunters and paladin squads composed of human powerhouses who were active in Selnes Plain.

About 3000 iron-armored demons were killed by demon hunters and paladin squads. However, the other human corps and human troops only killed over 1000 iron-armored demons.

Zhang Tie knew that the collapse of the human defense line in Selnes Theater of Operations would definitely cause a great impact to the current corps system of the human society. What he could see could also be seen by the others. The current human corps had already shown a declining trend. The previous standard of division of corps was meaningless. Perhaps, human corps only needed to be divided into two types, one for dealing with demonized puppets, the other for dealing with regular demon armies. To deal with demonized puppets, they needed high city walls, powerful steam ballistas, armored vehicles and white phosphorous gel bombs dropped by airships. These weapons were very destructive to demonized puppets and posed a great threat to regular demon corps. As long as one was above battle soldier, one could manipulate them. Only human fighters above LV 9 could deal with regular demon armies. Even though human countries could not afford to form a corps composed of LV 9 fighters, even if they could only form squads or battalions, they might be more effective than a common corps of hundreds of thousands of people on the battlefield.
