The alliance army's crusade against Ur-Hekal began, and the first to attack were the hundreds of catapults.
These catapults looked different because they were made by different races. The Beastmen's catapults looked simple and crude, while the Humans' catapults were exquisitely made. As for the Elves' catapults, they looked more slender. However, no matter which race made the catapults, they all had enough tonnage and looked very large. When the thick throwing arm was pulled flat by the capstan bit by bit, the Cyclops or Titans waiting at the side would carry large rocks that weighed hundreds of kilograms or even close to a ton and place them on the throwing arm.
After these steps were completed, soldiers would cut off the ropes tied to the elastic cables and drive the throwing arm to bounce back abruptly, ejecting these heavy stone ammunition and letting them smash into the city wall of Ur-Hekal with immense kinetic energy.
Almost in an instant, a large number of whistling sounds came from the sky. Hundreds of boulders spun in the air in a parabola and crashed into various parts of Ur-Hekal. Loud rumbles immediately came from every landing point. For a time, smoke and dust filled the air, gravel flew everywhere, and the screams of demons were endless.
In this first wave of attacks, a small number of them hit the city wall of Ur-Hekal, and more boulders fell into the city. After being hit, some of the taller buildings collapsed with a loud bang. Many of the demons on standby in the city were smashed into a bloody mess because they could not dodge in time. The rest could only roar angrily and stare at the direction of the boulders in the air to find ways to dodge.
Shortly after, the second wave of attacks from the catapults arrived. After the first wave of attacks had been corrected, the second wave of boulders smashed onto the city wall with even more boulders.
The goal of the alliance army was, of course, to break the city wall. Although there were many catapults, it was impossible to bury all the demons with stones. The final goal of the war was to invade the city.
With the cover of the catapult attacks, the assault troops of the alliance army, composed of behemoths, took the opportunity to gradually approach the city wall. They stopped about three hundred meters away from the city wall and waited for the catapults to continue bombarding.
Facing such a massive attack, even Roy was shocked. Apart from commanding the demons to defend, he did not have a better way to deal with it.
Of course, the demons in the city were also using the catapults in the city to counterattack. The boulders thrown out of the city intersected with the boulders thrown by the alliance army in the air, but they appeared so scattered and sparse. Although the boulders that were thrown out also landed in the alliance army formation, most of them landed where the behemoths were. Such attacks could not cause any damage to these behemoths, which were known as the kings of war. Instead, they roared in pain.
However, after many demons died and were injured in Ur-Hekal, the smell of blood in the air stimulated the remaining demons and aroused their ferocity. The high-rank demons under Roy began to use magic to augment the demon troops and help them resist damage.
Not only was the alliance army waiting, but the demons were also waiting, waiting for the city wall to collapse and fighting the alliance army that rushed in …
The city wall of Ur-Hekal clearly could not last for long. Although this was the base of the demons and could be considered sturdy, Demon Lord Kha-Beleth had melted a lot of the city wall on the side of Ur-Hekal when he entered the True Name Liberation state and transformed into the Inferno Overlord. Although it was repaired afterward, it was definitely not comparable to its original state.
And the truth was not beyond the demons' expectations. The repaired city wall was the first to collapse.
When the city wall on the side collapsed in the smoke and dust, excited cheers came from the alliance army. The collapse of the city wall was a signal, a signal for an all-out attack.
The alliance army's catapults were still continuing, but the troops at the rear had already begun to slowly advance. The light of magic began to shine in the alliance army formation, and the dragons in the sky were circling faster and faster.
After enduring a few more waves of attacks, the front city wall of Ur-Hekal finally collapsed with a teeth-aching sound. The fallen rubble even filled up the magma moat on the periphery. After seeing this scene, the alliance army suddenly blew the war horn. Amidst the loud whistling sounds, the alliance soldiers let out a soul-stirring roar in unison. Then they moved and began charging toward Ur-Hekal.
The behemoths bent down, got on all fours, and ran forward like gorillas. However, the dragons in the sky attacked first. They formed formations and swooped down from the sky. The scorching dragon breaths of the red dragons and black dragons sprayed down from the sky and swept along their flight trajectories. The rolling flames quickly spread everywhere in the city like a flood and then exploded into flames. A large number of demons were burned by the dragon breaths, and they screamed and rolled on the ground in an attempt to extinguish these flames. But reality proved that these actions were futile, and they could only burn into demon skeletons in the end.
The breaths of the green dragons and emerald dragons focused on the remaining city walls. Their acid corroded the city walls and accelerated the collapse of Ur-Hekal's city defense in order to provide more combat space for the alliance army. As for the gold dragons with incomparably hard dragon scales, they directly dived into the city ground. Their enormous bodies rolled around after landing, crushing many small demons to death. After the gold dragons got up, they immediately roared loudly and began to fight hand-to-hand with the demons.
Enormous flame tornadoes appeared in many places in the city, caused by the fire phoenixes flapping their huge wings in the sky. The griffin riders nimbly shuttled through the sky, throwing down javelins and spears to kill the demons in the sky. When these spears and javelins shot down from the sky, they also carried tremendous kinetic energy. Some of the demons hit by them were even stabbed into the ground, unable to turn over at all, and they roared in pain.
This battle was almost one-sided. After all, the demons did not have the advantage in numbers, so after seeing this situation, Roy and the others took action.
Roy pressed his palm on the ground, and the flame waves of the flowing brightness flames spread out along his arm. The demons that the flames came into contact with were immediately shrouded in flowing brightness flames. The rocks under their feet turned into liquid that covered their bodies, and the flowing brightness flames refined them into steel armor that wrapped their bodies. This armor gave many low-rank and even middle-rank demons the ability to save their lives.
Roy's flowing brightness flames spread quite quickly and soon enveloped most of the city, quickly arming nearly ten thousand demons. In fact, this was the greatest use of the flowing brightness flames. With the immense magic power of a demon lord, he could instantly arm the demon army.
The dragons in the sky saw what Roy was doing, so they immediately turned around and pounced toward him. But before they could reach him, they saw three bloody mouths attacking. Fat Tiger jumped up and bit the dragon's neck and different parts with his three mouths, forcefully dragging a golden dragon down from the sky. Then the two giant beasts began to bite and kill each other desperately.
The remaining dragons were intercepted by Julia and Benia.
Benia's flame whip flew out and wrapped around the dragon horn of a green dragon. She could not pull the dragon, but she could jump up with the help of the whip. After stepping on the green dragon's forehead, Benia squatted down and pressed her palm on the green dragon's head. A circle of pink magic power light spread out, and the next second, the dragon's mind was confused. It turned its head and bit its fellow dragons beside it.
As for Julia, she spread her flame wings and flew into the air. Holding her fallen angelic sword, she quickly cut off the wings of an emerald dragon, causing it to roll and fall to the ground. Before the emerald dragon could get up, a ball of golden flames shot down from the sky and smashed into the emerald dragon.
The moment the golden flames touched the emerald dragon's body, they suddenly burst apart and enveloped the emerald dragon's huge body. The emerald dragon only had time to let out a tragic roar before it was melted into a pile of charred bones by this violent flame …
This was the terrifying part of the destruction flames. It was comparable to the temperature on the surface of the sun, incomparably terrifyingly high. The stronger the magic power, the higher the temperature. In front of the destruction flames, there was almost nothing that could not be melted.
After killing this emerald dragon, Julia continued to kill the other dragons. Her flame wings were originally pure black, but after fusing with the power of destruction flames, many golden flame patterns appeared on her wings, which represented the symbol of the power of destruction flames. In her hand was Kha-Beleth's Fang, which Roy had modified for her. This sword could adapt well to Julia's destruction flames. When she swung this demon sword burning with destruction flames, even the dragon scales that dragons were proud of could not stop her blade at all. Like a hot knife cutting through butter, they were sliced open smoothly. Wherever Julia flew, dragons with their wings cut off would fall.
Julia and Benia attracted the attention of almost all the dragons, which naturally gave Roy more time to use it.
The alliance army, which was charging, suddenly found something strange in the sky, so they could not help but look up. The first thing they saw were several light spots!
Their eyes almost popped out. "That's … Armageddon?!"
In just a few seconds, the light spots in the sky could be seen clearly. That's right. They were several enormous meteors burning with raging flames after rubbing against the atmosphere. Each of them was hundreds of meters in diameter.
And the landing point of these meteors was undoubtedly pointing at the alliance army formation …
