Hezrou were high-grade demons, but they didn't have high intelligence and were easily controlled by succubi. They and vrocks were the easiest high-grade demons for succubi to control.
Seeing the enemies around them, the hezrou showed no fear. Its huge body and powerful strength allowed it to easily tear apart the bodies of the enemies. The hezrou's body emitted a foul stench. This was their innate ability, a type of poison. All non-demon creatures near them were smelled by this stench and were then crushed by the hezrou.
The four snake demons were slightly shorter than the Hezrou. They looked like Nagas and wielded sharp swords made of Abyssal Magic Iron. As mid-rank demons, they would grow a pair of arms every time they advanced. Therefore, the more arms a snake demon had, the more powerful it would be. The Legendary snake demons had eight arms.
These nagas were only low-grade nagas with two arms, but they still had the upper hand against the cannon fodder slaves. They were proficient in dual-wielding and could wield their weapons very quickly. The kobolds and gnolls were no match for them at all.
The charging troops were also thrown into disarray. Especially the hezrou. The stench emitted from its body made all the monsters around it stumble. Even a porcupine was chopped to death by its giant axe.
The hezrou was the type of demon that would go berserk the more enemies there were. At this time, the hezrou had messed up the cannon fodder army. He even used demon summon to summon another hezrou. The two hezrou led the four nagas to mess up the cannon fodder army.
Some of the cannon fodder slaves who were lucky enough to break through the demons' blockade were chopped to death by the impatient barbarians as soon as they reached the front of the army.
The battlefield became more and more chaotic. Some porcupines knocked away all the cannon fodder in front of them and charged at the barbarians' formation. When the distance between the two sides was reduced to a hundred meters, a barbarian roared, "Fire!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The ballista's bowstrings vibrated, and a two-meter-long spear instantly pierced through the charging porcupines. The porcupines, which weighed at least 500 kilograms, were nailed to the ground by the spears. Dark red blood spurted out, and in the blink of an eye, the charging porcupines were deader than dead.
Eight ballistae only shot five porcupines. The remaining porcupines weren't frightened by the death of their companions. They continued to charge with bloodshot eyes. There was no time to reload the ballistae. A few barbarian warriors stepped forward with giant axes. The wild porcupines ran even faster.
The barbarian warriors were fearless and rushed towards the frenzied porcupines. Just as the two sides were about to collide, the barbarian warriors suddenly dodged to the side and then drew a beautiful arc with their sharp two-handed axes, instantly slicing through the bodies of the charging porcupines.
Blood splattered.
The sharp two-handed axes easily tore through the sturdy skin of the porcupines under the barbarians' immense strength. They also tore through the muscles and cut through the bones. The charging porcupines were instantly cut down. Their large bodies flew far away under the effect of their speed, leaving deep marks on the ground.
These porcupines crashed into the ground with great momentum. The force of the impact caused their internal organs to start bleeding. The porcupines lay on the ground, dark red blood continuously flowing out of their bodies.
Seeing that the cannon fodder and the charging porcupines weren't of much use, the ogre mage roared and a wave of mana exploded from his body.
"Bloodthirsty Wonder!"
A faint red glow enveloped the ogres. They roared one after another. Their eyes quickly turned red, their muscles bulged, and their veins popped out. Their weapons tore through the air with the sound of air being torn apart. The dull sound of war drums also became louder at this moment.
The ogres roared and circled around the chaotic battlefield, charging at the Suhlen formation.
The ballistae that had been reloaded fired at the ogres.
However, the ogres weren't porcupines that could only charge in a straight line. Only two of the eight ballista bolts hit their targets. The two-meter long ballista bolts instantly nailed the ogres to the ground. Even though their bodies were strong, such severe injuries weren't something they could withstand.
The remaining ogres quickened their pace, taking advantage of the gap between the ballista bolts to quickly close in. After two more rounds of shooting, the ogres were finally within seventy to eighty meters of Suhlen. The ogres pulled out their iron spears, leaned back, and threw them at the barbarians' formation.
"Get out of the way!" Suhlen roared.
"Stone Wall!"
A stone wall five meters tall and one meter wide rose in front of the formation.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Stone fragments flew everywhere. Dozens of iron spears hit the stone wall. The entire stone wall only lasted for a few seconds before collapsing. A few iron spears that flew over the stone wall were smashed away by the barbarians' giant axes. This round of spears didn't cause any casualties.
"Stone to Mud!"
A ray of light flashed from Suhlen's body, and instantly merged into the ground in front of him. The hard ground beneath the ogres' feet instantly turned into a pile of mud. When the ogre warriors stepped into it, their bodies couldn't help but sink. The heavy armor made the ogres even heavier. The soft mud beneath their feet made it impossible for them to bear any weight. The ogres quickly sank into it.
"Fireball!"
Just as the ogres sank into the mud, the ogre mage suddenly summoned a football-sized fireball. The fireball dragged a long trail of flames behind it as it appeared and smashed towards Suhlen.
"Absorb Energy Shield!"
Chris, who was standing beside Suhlen, immediately covered Suhlen with an energy absorbing shield. As soon as the shield appeared, it was hit by the orange fireball. The fireball continuously shrank, and the energy absorbing shield began to tremble violently. In the end, the two disappeared at the same time.
Without Suhlen's continuous casting, the effect of Stone to Mud disappeared. The remaining ogres continued to throw iron spears at Suhlen as they charged. The ogre warriors that came from the left and right did not stop. They hurled their spears at Suhlen as well.
These ogres were very smart. They knew that Suhlen was the greatest threat. They had already determined that Suhlen was a Magus, and that the human Magus's meager defence wouldn't be able to withstand so many iron spears. However, their plan failed.
Hundreds of iron spears locked down the space around Suhlen. Suhlen didn't dodge, and countless arcs of electricity gathered on his body.
"Thunder Lightning Spear!"
Dazzling lightning blossomed from Suhlen's body. The spear in his hand was like a lightning dragon, bringing with it a powerful current as it struck the iron spears above his head.
The lightning dragon circled around, and all the iron spears flying towards Suhlen were knocked away. Some were even directly melted by the powerful current.
