The supervising brigade of the Blood Demon Army was not asking the vanguard brigade to be killed. They were asking them to block the flood with their bodies and buy more time for the main troops in the rear. The core troops of the Blood Demon Army in the rear were already digging ditches to discharge the flood.
They were moving so fast that they were using their bodies as tools. Even if there was a rock in front of them, they would smash it into pieces with a single punch.
The seven vanguard brigades quickly gathered together, as if they really did not dare go against the will of the supervising brigade. In only one minute, they had established walls of flesh and blood one after another.
When the flood hit the walls of flesh and blood, some of the Blood Demons were immediately blown away. However, after the flood passed through a few walls of flesh and blood, the impact from above was diluted layer by layer. When the flood reached the downstream, the impact was much less than before!
He had to admit that the walls of flesh and blood were very useful. They bought more time for the follow-up troops of the Blood Demon Army!
Then, when the drainage ditches were dug out, the follow-up troops of the Blood Demon Army stepped on the bodies of the vanguard brigade and continued climbing upward. They never cared about the life or death of their companions. Their only purpose was to carry out the will of the demon king!
To achieve their purpose, they would sacrifice everything, including themselves!
When Lü Shu was in the relic on Elephant Island, he had witnessed the scene where the Purgatory Blood Demon sacrificed itself. He had to admit that such brutality came from the nature of the Purgatory Blood Demon and was quite chilling.
Therefore, soon after Lü Shu heard the explosions, he saw the Blood Demon Army climbing to the top of the mountain and gazing at the capital!
The Blood Demons were standing on the mountain like hideous statues. They were the ugliest statues in the world.
Gradually, the entire mountain was covered in the red of the Blood Demon Army. Looking from afar, the north was dyed red. Some Blood Demons were flying in the sky, overwhelming the sky and the earth!
However, Lü Shu was well aware that it was just a small part of the Blood Demon Army!
The Blood Demon Army did not attack immediately. They were waiting for the water to disappear. That would be the best opportunity for them to launch an attack. By then, the number of Blood Demons would be enough to drown the capital.
Lü Shu turned to Zhang Weiyu and Li Liang and said, "Prepare for battle. This river will run dry in less than seven days."
Li Liang frowned. "If I were the enemy, I would've been more than willing to sacrifice part of the blood demons and launch an assault in advance when Mituryū Kanao thinks that the blood demons will not attack until the river runs out. That's why I have to be wary."
"Yes." Lü Shu nodded. He turned to Li Liang and said solemnly, "From now on, I'll have to trouble you. However, they're still too naive to think that they can conquer Royal City just because the moat is gone."
Li Liang did not ask Lü Shu if he had any backup plans. He did not even prepare too many defense machines for the battle because there were too many blood demons. Even if he had a crossbow, how many blood demons could he kill? At that time, the equipment would become a burden.
This was the world of the Cultivation civilization!
Chen Zu An and Cheng Qiuqiao leaned against the city wall and looked at the dense red on the mountains in the distance. Chen Zu An sighed. "Tridents are still too weak to deal with things that can fly in the sky. If the Bronze Torrent were all here, a round of flying swords would be enough to reap the harvest!"
It had to be said that Chen Zu An had indeed pointed out Mituryū Kanao's weakness. The World Tide of the Inner Hall could be disassembled into seven flying sword-like pieces, which could be used for both long-range and short-range attacks.
However, the other people in the Imperial Dragon Class were all equipped with tridents. This kind of thing was good for close combat, and it was also a magical equipment. It was indeed very powerful, and a single trident could pierce through the Blood Demon's heart. However, the problem was that if the Blood Demon was flying around, it would not be easy to deal with.
Chen Zu An looked at Cheng Qiuqiao. "How many blood demons can your little conch blow down?"
At this point, Cheng Qiuqiao's face darkened, but he still answered the question seriously. "A few thousand should be enough. This is the limit of peak first rank."
"Only a few thousand?" Chen Zu An scratched his head and looked at the blood demons that filled the sky. "I'm afraid there are more than a hundred thousand flying demons on the other side. Your little power is not enough …"
"If you're so good, you do it." Cheng Qiuqiao was unhappy. He was angry at the mention of the little conch.
If it was just the little conch, it would probably be good enough to blow down three to five thousand blood demons. He had the advanced version of the Extinction of the Thousand Mountain Birds, but the problem was that even if he used the Extinction of the Thousand Mountain Birds, Cheng Qiuqiao estimated that he would at most be able to blow down ten thousand blood demons.
The key was that these blood demons would not necessarily die when they fell to the ground. They could still continue to fight.
"Don't be so impatient." Chen Zu An sighed and said, "If only we were Great Grandmasters. I feel that if I were to become a Great Grandmaster, I would be able to eat thousands of blood demons in one bite. Although it's disgusting to think about it, there's nothing we can do …"
"Don't mention that. A first-rank is a first-rank," Cheng Qiuqiao said impatiently.
"But what if we can't beat them?" Chen Zu An was also unhappy. "Aren't I just imagining all the possibilities?"
"If we can't beat them?" Cheng Qiuqiao looked at Chen Zu An and said with a smile, "If we can't beat them, we'll die here with Brother Tree! Let those blood demons die with us! "
However, no one expected that the blood demons would come faster than expected!
Lü Shu estimated that in seven days, not only did he have time to release water, but he also included the time for the soil to dry up. However, on the second night, he saw that the blood demons were beginning to move.
He noticed that after the blood demons stabilized their foothold on the mountain, they took the initiative to open seven or eight spillways, and the speed of the water flow kept increasing.
However, even at this time, the water level was still waist-deep. The soil under the water would sink into a pit when stepped on, and it would drag people down.
Lü Shu thought that the blood demons would wait a little longer, but the blood demons did not intend to wait any longer!
The setting sun was like blood!
When night fell, when the sun completely sank into the horizon, the blood demons that covered the mountains and plains actually launched an attack in advance. They used the corpses of their companions to pave a path in the river. Those were the weakest blood demons, and they were decisively sacrificed!
In the sky, the blood demons spread their huge wings and flew in the direction of the royal city. The Eastern State made their move, and so did the Western State. Wen Zaifou commanded the army to collide with the Western State army where Sun Xiuwen was. Sun Xiuwen actually gave up on attacking the city and ordered the Western State army to fight the Southern State army head-on!
Lü Shu's expression was solemn. This was the enemy's gift to him, and he was going to bury all of his schemes here.
The Jianlu disciples had long been guarding the eastern city wall. This was Jiang Shuyi's decision. As long as the Jianlu disciples were still there, the eastern city wall would definitely not fall.
He turned his back to the overwhelming blood demons and smiled at Zhang Weiyu and the other Mituryū Kanao. "Are you ready?"
Mituryū Kanao pulled on his visor in unison. The visor collided with his helmet with a loud bang.
"Give it your all. After killing them, I will take you home." As soon as Lü Shu finished speaking, he turned around. He was like a young man who had slain a dragon facing the sky full of evil dragons. The young man was still the same young man, and he had not become an evil dragon.
Zhang Weiyu placed his hand on the Tianxia Tide and said calmly, "My glory, it has been a long time since we parted."
