The arrival of the human allied army was like a timely help to the Blue Brilliance Empire, which was in danger.
These 300,000 people were the vanguard of the allied army, led by the top general of the Rayo Empire, Sandro. Sandro had heard that the Blue Brilliance Empire was in danger, so he had rushed all the way and finally arrived at the most crucial moment.
The main force of the vanguard was naturally the humans. Due to the speed of the march, most of them were lightly armed. Among the reinforcements, Rambis saw her most familiar ally, the elven princess Phiri.
Phiri had brought two elven armies, magic rifles and magic archers. As for the elven mage army, they were part of the subsequent reinforcements. The destruction of the Silver Moon Immortal Capital and the fall of the elven queen and the elven prophet had brought great sorrow to the elves. This time, they were also determined to take revenge.
However, not all the elves participated in this dangerous battle. The elven swordsmen remained in the Jinyao Territory to protect the elven princess Michelle. This was also just in case, to preserve the elven bloodline.
The new prophet, Qi Lanya, stayed by Michelle's side. It was not that Qi Lanya was afraid of death, but that she had received the inheritance of the elven prophet and needed to further understand and digest it. At the same time, as the leader of the new generation of elves, she was related to the safety of the entire elven race. She could not easily take risks. The orcs also stayed in the Jinyao Territory. Strangely, the orcs respected the new elf prophet, Qi Lanya, from the bottom of their hearts. They listened to everything she said.
This time, there was also a team of elven mages from the City of Wizards, Yagda, in the army defending the Blue Brilliance Empire. Mage Taryn had also sent out two elite human Mage legions. As far as Mages were concerned, they were second to none in terms of combat power.
The mage armies were not made up of mages who had reached a certain number of mages. Instead, they were truly well-trained battlefield mages. These mages could use special mageweaths or other methods to link everyone's mana and mental strength together to release the same spell. The power of the spell cast was far greater than the sum of ordinary people.
Other than the elves, there was also an army of dwarves.
In the early years, after the three major dwarven tribes of the forest, hill, and cave tribes merged, the Thick Earth Castle in the Black Rock Mountain Range within the borders of the Yang Shao Kingdom became the new stronghold of the dwarves. Therefore, when the Silver Moon Immortal City was destroyed, the dwarves who had already moved away were not affected. This time, the frontline army was led by the Dwarf King Orfgar.
The Dragons did not send any reinforcements this time. After the short "decisive battle" in Jinyao Territory, the Dragons who participated in the battle seemed to have received an order from Dragon Emperor Palgoris and left Jinyao Territory immediately to return to Ryūzoku.
According to the latest intelligence, the Abyss Army had started moving towards the imperial capital after destroying the Thorn Fortress. It was estimated that they would reach the eastern suburbs of Vestian within five to six hours.
Rambis made a prompt decision. She ordered the reinforcements to quickly rest, eat, and recover their strength. She also took out a large amount of high-quality equipment from the armory and provided it to the reinforcements. At the same time, she quickly held a strategy meeting with the senior generals. The participants were Sandro, Aaltos, Phyllis, and others.
On the tall city wall, all the soldiers were ready for battle. All kinds of magic protection inside and outside the city were also activated. The most serious test was about to come.
The air was filled with a strange silence. Especially after knowing that those kingdoms and cities had been destroyed, the atmosphere was even more depressing.
At this time, they could faintly hear the sound of galloping coming from afar. The ground was slightly shaking. Obviously, the army of the Abyss Monsters was approaching.
The soldiers clenched their weapons tightly. There was determination, determination, nervousness, and fear in their eyes. No matter how well-trained they were, they were still living people.
People would be afraid, but sometimes, they also had emotions and strength that surpassed fear.
The commander of the east gate was Sandro, the representative of the young and strong army of the Rayo Empire. He was known as the number one general.
Sandro felt the nervousness of the soldiers. He did not use a long speech to boost the morale of the soldiers. Instead, he took a spear from one of his bodyguards and tapped it on the ground.
His pace was neither fast nor slow.
The tapping sound was especially clear. Gradually, more and more people joined in the rhythm. Even the usually proud and calm elves were affected by the atmosphere and started tapping along with the rhythm.
The tapping sound became more and more uniform and vigorous. The original depression was swept away and turned into excitement. It felt like everyone had gathered into a powerful torrent, as if they were invincible and invincible.
"Fight! Fight! Fight! "The soldiers roared loudly.
The First Elf Princess Phyllis and the Dwarf King Olphg could not help but look at Sandro in awe. He was indeed a famous human general. He used such a simple method to boost the morale of the soldiers.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Sandro put down the spear and raised his longsword. The tapping sound of the weapons stopped immediately.
At this time, the tremors on the ground became more and more clear. However, at this time, the soldiers' morale had already been ignited. They were no longer nervous and fearful.
In the palace, Rambis sat alone on the throne in the main hall with a glass of wine in her hand.
She heard the shouts of the soldiers in the distance. Looking at the wine trembling slightly, she said to herself, "It has begun."
In the east of the city, a sea of red appeared in the sight of the defenders. Even the clouds in the sky seemed to be dyed red.
The army of the abyss had finally arrived!
Following Sandro's order, the catapults and the magic crystal cannons were launched at the same time. These were both long-range conventional weapons. Due to the cooldown problem, the magic crystal cannons stopped firing after one round. Only the fire meteors thrown by the catapults were still flying. As the terrain in the east of the Blue Glory Empire was extremely open and flat, the distribution of the abyss monsters was relatively scattered. The lethality of the catapults was not as good as that of the Thorn Fortress.
Sandro did not order the magic rifle legion to fire. According to the analysis of the previous intelligence, the defense of the abyss monsters was quite strong. If the distance was too far, the lethality of the magic rifle would be greatly reduced, and it would be a waste of ammunition.
Seeing that the crimson wave was approaching, Sandro suddenly gave an unexpected order, "First Sorcerer Legion! Get ready! "
The First Mage Legion was the elven legion of the City of Mages. The elves stood on top of the city wall and quickly chanted a joint magic. It was not a group attack magic such as Meteor Rain, but a relatively low-level earth magic called "Earth Wall".
The elves were extremely sensitive to elements, especially this kind of joint casting, which was far more powerful than ordinary single spells. Mounds rose up in front of them, and the mounds were getting higher and higher, connecting into a whole undulating earthen mountain. The terrain of the entire plain became hilly.
This hilly terrain was quite exquisite. Not all the terrain became steep, but a few exits were deliberately left. Due to the little resistance before, the momentum of the army of the abyss was extremely fast. Under this sudden change, it was too late to react even if they wanted to, and they involuntarily rushed toward those exits.
This meant that the entire scattered formation was concentrated together.
At this moment, Sandro decisively ordered, "First Mage Legion, retreat. Magic rifle, fire!"
All the magic rifles shot out tongues of fire almost at the same time. Due to the sudden change in the terrain, the abyss monsters rushing out of the exits were quite dense, and it was convenient for the magic rifles to focus fire. The crevice demons at the front fell one after another without any suspense. There was still a difference in the shooting. The elven gunners were extremely accurate, and they often hit the crevice demons between their eyebrows with one shot, severely injuring them or even killing them directly. Ordinary human gunners were obviously much inferior, but due to the terrain, they had eliminated a large number of abyss monsters in the blink of an eye.
Princess Feli secretly praised Sandro's commanding ability. She was a top student of the Starlight Academy, and naturally could see that this tactic was quite successful. The earthen mountains created by the Mage Legion arrived at just the right time and distance, not only separating the formation of the abyss monsters from the front, but also allowing them to enter the effective range of their magic rifles. It was as if the abyss monsters were actively cooperating to complete the task.
The abyss army continued to rush forward crazily, as if the casualties at the front had nothing to do with them. More and more monsters rushed out of the exits, and the attacks of the magic rifles began to disperse, and the lethality was obviously reduced. At the back, the violent demons also began to appear, and they shot bone spikes at the direction of the city wall. Due to the distance, they did not cause too much damage.
However, the distance was rapidly closing.
"Second Mage Legion, get ready!" Sandro's voice sounded again, and another row of mages neatly walked up the city wall. In the distance, a bone spike broke through the air, and was about to hit the mage. Just then, a steel shield appeared in time and blocked the bone spike.
This was a large shield warrior of the dwarf race, and was best at defense. Sandro had arranged for them to protect the mages and archers on the city wall.
Soon, the second mage legion had prepared a spell. It was also an earth element spell, but compared to the earthen wall, this spell was of a lower level: Grease!
The function of Grease was to make the ground in an area extremely slippery, and it was difficult to stand on. With so many mages casting this spell together, the entire area under the city wall suddenly became a greasy pit.
In a normal battle, Grease was not lethal at all, and it was far inferior to Quagmire, which could trap the enemy. However, in this environment, Grease played a miraculous role. The abyss monsters were already very fast, and under the influence of Grease, they could not control their body balance. When their companions behind them pushed them, they swayed left and right, and a large number of them slipped and fell. Even the violent demons could not shoot their bone spikes normally.
Seeing this opportunity, the magic gunners and archers fired continuously, and the abyss monsters at the front were all annihilated by the fierce firepower. The morale of the soldiers was even higher. At this time, many cracks appeared on the earthen mountain that the elves had created.
In the air, a female figure with flames all over her body appeared.
As the flaming whip waved, the earthen mountain collapsed, revealing the abyss ocean behind it.
Although they had used clever tactics to annihilate a large number of monsters, it was only a drop in the bucket for the entire abyss army.
The real test had just begun.
