The strange roars and the rumbling of the earth could be heard from the battlefield. The Evernight army that filled the battlefield became restless, forming a beast tide and a wave of soldiers that rapidly attacked the various cities. Every war city was besieged so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
"Should we send out an army to set up the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation to block this wave of soldiers?"
Yao Yue stood beside Yi Tianxing and asked with a frown.
In the previous battles, the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation could be said to have been invincible. As long as the formation was set up outside the city, it could block the beast tide for a long time and deplete a large portion of the enemy's combat power. Not only did it reap a large number of merit points, but the corpses were also sent into the Hongmeng Tiandi Pagoda, allowing the space inside the pagoda to expand rapidly. It was like adding bricks and tiles to the pagoda.
Now that they saw the Evernight army on the battlefield, their first thought was to use the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation to block for a while. They would deplete a portion of the army's strength and then rely on the powerful defensive power on the city walls to suppress the army. This was what they had done in the past. Moreover, they had achieved great results every time.
"The Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation might not be able to play a decisive role now. The army is coming too fast, and there are unforeseen changes on the battlefield. "
Jia Xu shook his head and expressed his opinion.
Under such circumstances, setting up a formation was not necessary. Relying on the city walls for defense was the best method.
Rumble!!
At this moment, a terrifying wave swept over the battlefield. It was dark and oppressive, and everyone who saw it couldn't help but feel a great fear.
"Insects, those are insects."
"Are they still insects? Their legs are as sharp as spears, and their mouthparts are so exaggerated. If they stab into the body and suck, won't all the blood in the body be sucked dry? "
"What kind of insects are those? They look like fierce beasts, but they have wings and sickle-like claws. What a sinister appearance. Are they insects? Why are they so different from the insects I've seen before? "
"Insects, this is an insect wave. Damn it, are they going to cause an insect disaster on the God Demon Battlefield?"
On the city wall, many of the human cultivators who had been taken in couldn't help but cry out in alarm when they saw this.
Insects, there were insects everywhere, and they were like a black tide sweeping over.
This was very different from the insectoids he had seen before. The insectoids that he had seen in the past had the same characteristics as the insectoids in his mind. It was just that they were larger, more ferocious, and possessed all sorts of special abilities. However, these insectoids had completely overturned his impression of insectoids. It was too ferocious and ugly. From the looks of it, one could tell at a glance that these were pure destroyers.
There were also many ladybugs that looked like beetles, but they were even more ferocious. Their claws were exposed, and their appearance was a strange green color. It crawled on the ground at an extremely fast speed.
"Puppies, Wyverns, Hydralisks, Exploding Worms, it really is the Zerg."
Yi Tianxing's eyes revealed a trace of solemnity.
Others might not recognize these insects, but he could recognize them. They were the insectoid army from before the Great Cataclysm. Now, they had turned into a destructive army sent by the Evernight Faction. He couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
There were simply too many of these insectoids.
Their numbers were enough to make one's hair stand on end. The insectoids weren't scary individually, but they were scary when they gathered into a sea of insectoids. Even if one was far stronger than these insectoids, they would be completely devoured and torn into pieces if they fell into the sea of insectoids. Not even dregs would be left.
The abilities of these insectoids were extremely powerful. When they gathered together, it could be said to be terrifying.
"Pass down the order. These insectoids are a special kind of insectoid, but their destructive power isn't weak. Pay attention to those green ladybugs. Once they get close, they will self-destruct. Do your best to kill them on the battlefield."
Yi Tianxing took a deep breath and quickly gave the order.
"Bed crossbows, shoot!!"
On the city wall, every soldier was already well-prepared. When they saw the Evernight Faction army within their firing range, they didn't hesitate and gave the order without any hesitation.
Huge crossbow bolts were shot out one after another.
These crossbow bolts had already begun to be refined from bone materials.
Using bone materials to forge crossbow bolts, carving runes on them, and refining them into runic arrows had already been done by Da Yi. Compared to other materials, bone materials were obviously the easiest to obtain on the battlefield. After a great battle, most of the crossbow bolts had been used up. If they didn't replenish them, even a mountain of arrows would be emptied. Materials were the biggest problem when it came to refining crossbow bolts.
Developing crossbow bolts made of bone materials instead of other materials was to meet the needs of the war.
The universal printer was always carried with them.
Every day, they would clean up the battlefield and obtain a large number of corpses. Apart from the top-grade bones, all the other bones would be printed into piles of crossbow bolts using the universal printer. This was also the reason why Da Yi's army never lacked crossbow bolts on the battlefield. On the contrary, after every great battle, the number of runic crossbow bolts made from bone materials was astonishing. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were piled up like a mountain.
Not only did they make up for the consumption, but they also had a rich reserve that was tens or even hundreds of times stronger.
As a result, the Great Yi's army had an inexhaustible supply of supplies on the battlefield. An endless supply.
The unlimited reserve allowed the soldiers to unleash their full combat power. As long as their energy wasn't exhausted and they still had their origin energy, the rain of arrows could be fired continuously. Unless the enemy's strength completely exceeded the destructive power of the rain of arrows, no enemy could ignore the rain of arrows.
Bang bang bang!!
Amidst the Evernight army, the puppets of various races exploded into a mist of blood under the giant crossbow bolts. The dense rain of arrows was like harvesting rice straws. Countless enemy soldiers were killed and nailed to the ground. Fresh blood dyed the ground red.
Rumble!!
The speed of the insect swarm was much faster than expected.
It could be seen that the densely packed exploding insects were the first to catch up to the Evernight army. The insect tide didn't stop at all against the puppets of Evernight. The exploding insects crashed into the bodies of the Evernight puppets. Immediately, the puppets' bodies emitted a green radiance. Their bodies suddenly expanded like inflated balloons, expanding to several times their original size. Then, they exploded with a loud bang.
A sudden explosion occurred.
Countless Shenguang screamed. Following the explosion, green venom splattered everywhere, killing the nearby puppets on the spot. Some of the heavily injured ones were corroded by the venom and died miserably.
The power of the self-explosion was great. It was only slightly inferior to the Rune Bomb. However, the number of exploding insects was too great.
Everywhere they went, they … exploded!!
They didn't differentiate between friend and foe. As long as any living being stood in their way, they would explode without a second thought. They would explode and poison all living beings that stood in their way. Even if they couldn't die from the explosion, they would be corroded and killed by the poison.
Just this scene alone was enough to fully display the sharpness of the Insect Race's nature.
"They will explode as expected."
When Jia Xu and the other generals saw this, their faces instantly turned solemn.
If these exploding insects were allowed to approach the city walls or even climb up the city walls, they would undoubtedly explode and cause great damage to the soldiers on the city walls. They were extremely destructive. The key was the poison.
The soldiers on the city walls didn't need to be instructed. Immediately, a large number of crossbow bolts were fired at the exploding insects.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
After the crossbow bolts hit the exploding insects, under the external attack, the exploding insects almost unsurprisingly self-destructed.
Amidst the explosions, a large amount of green venom splattered in all directions. It even landed on the bodies of the surrounding insects, causing many of them to let out shrill cries and fall to the ground. They were poisoned to death and trampled to death.
"Throw the Rune Bomb."
One by one, the Rune Bomb was hurled outside the city. The Rune Bomb and the exploding insects exploded at the same time. The destructive power gathered together and produced an even more powerful destructive force.
However, the insect tide wasn't just about the exploding insects.
The Wyverns in the sky quickly pounced toward the city walls. From the tail of the Wyverns, a destructive Shenguang burst out.
Every single one of them wasn't inferior to the powerful battle arrows. In fact, they were even faster and had shocking destructive power.
The explosions were as dense as rain, as if they were going to drown the entire city walls.
"Shield!!"
The shields were instantly erected, forming a sturdy shield wall. Rays of golden light spread from the shields. In the blink of an eye, they gathered together and formed a golden shield wall. The destructive Shenguang landed on the shield wall. Instantly, a powerful impact erupted, and a series of thunderous booms echoed.
Pfft pfft pfft!!
A large number of Hydralisks approached.
Barbs that looked like flying spears shot out from his body, and every single one of them shot out at an extremely fast speed. Each barb was as dense as rain. They covered the entire city walls. Similarly, they bombarded the golden shield wall.
Under the continuous attacks, the golden light on the shield wall began to dim at a speed visible to the naked eye.
One could imagine that the power contained in these attacks wasn't weak. In fact, it was extremely powerful.
"Water Talisman, Shield!!"
Some soldiers instantly shouted when they saw this.
The saber and shield soldier quickly took out several blue talismans from his body. These were Water Talismans. When the golden light on the shield was about to completely dissipate, he instantly slapped it on the shield. Instantly, a layer of blue spiritual light appeared on the shield again. The blue spiritual light on the shield intertwined and naturally formed a layer of blue water screen. Water Wall.
It allowed the defensive power of the shield to form again. It kept the sharp barbs on the outside, causing them to break apart.
This shield was specially designed so that it could be enchanted with talismans. It gave the shield a new defensive power. On the battlefield, it could be targeted to make changes.
Puff puff puff!!
