The white light that came from the distant deep space easily tore apart the outer protective wall of the Stellar Spire, leaving only the connecting platform that had been blown into half and a large area of debris that was scattered in all directions. The shield seemed indestructible a few minutes ago. It was arguably the strongest shield on the demon hunters' defense line. The soldiers of the Council of Elders had been attacking it for a long time but could not weaken it. But in the face of the white light, it was like a piece of paper.
The scene of the shield breaking was reflected in the eyes of the defenders in other areas. For a moment, no one could believe that the shield could be broken so easily. Then, Master Teuton's roar woke the soldiers up. "Stop them!"
The target of the Council of Elders was the shield of the Stellar Spire from the beginning. They tried to break the stalemate and rush out to cut off Coldfrost Citadel's support to Coldpath. All the steps of their attack were designed for this purpose. They attacked the command post and the spire platform at the same time to divert the attention of the defenders and hide their special weapons. They were just waiting for this moment.
When the gate of the Stellar Spire was blasted open, almost half of the defenders were scattered in other parts of the defense line.
Teuton's loud roar awakened the stunned warriors. The palace guards immediately rushed to the place where the barrier had been blasted open, trying to stop the troops of the Council of Elders. The platform guards, who had been severely injured by the white light just now, quickly regrouped, and some of the warriors who still had some fighting strength rushed to the huge gap at the top of the tower. However, although they were fearless, they could not keep up with the pace of the enemy's attack. Hundreds and thousands of demon hunters from the Council of Elders swarmed toward the gate. The scattered firepower from the broken platform could not cause any real obstruction to this torrent.
After losing the crucial protective shield, it was impossible for a small group of soldiers to block the entire door.
"Send … send the message!" Teuton turned and shouted at a servant. "Inform the Nightwatchers that the defense line has collapsed. Blow up the spire immediately!"
The young hunter behind him was shocked. "But this way, we'll …"
Teuton grabbed the young demon hunter's collar like a furious lion. "There are only the old and the sick in Coldfrost Citadel! If the citadel falls, we will lose our supplies and be trapped here! "
In just a few seconds, the attackers of the Council of Elders had breached the weak defense line of the platform guards. Thousands of elite soldiers swarmed to the gate of the Stellar Spire like a flock of crows. An officer-like demon hunter raised his sacred silver sword and rushed to the breach. "Follow the will of the saint, enter —"
His figure rushed into the tower, but the next second, a huge green fireball suddenly burst out from the depths of the tower. The color of the fire was strange, and it was filled with frightening evil power. The demon hunters here had never seen this kind of unknown magic. The first demon hunter of the Council of Elders who rushed into the tower flew out the next moment, like a kite with a broken string, and was thrown hundreds of meters away by the blast wave of the explosion. Even the demon hunters who were a little further away were not spared. The demonic flames swept out, and they were in a mess.
As the green flames erupted, a huge, twisted head emerged from the Stellar Spire. This hideous head was wrapped in green flames. He looked at the stunned demon hunters outside the spire and grinned. His voice was like rolling thunder. "Surprise!"
Then he leaped out of the spire. His huge reptilian-like body was wrapped in burning demonic flames. The Lord of the Abyss swung his sword and slashed the nearest demon hunter. "Attack!"
The next moment, the Stellar Spire seemed to have opened the gate to hell. Countless demons and soldiers swarmed out of the spire amidst the roars of war and the eruption of demonic flames.
The demon warriors waved their burning axes, and the dark elf mages summoned thunder and storms. A strange hybrid army rushed out, and the demon hunters of the Council of Elders did not know how to react. They might have thought of all possible scenarios before they attacked, such as the desperate counterattack of the guards and the suicide bombing of the spire. But they did not consider the possibility of an army of 100,000 demons rushing out of the gate!
"Demons! They are demons! " Finally, a demon hunter of the Council of Elders recognized the race of these strange creatures. Although these demons were completely different from the ones that had appeared on Earth, he could still smell the same manic power. "Demonic army!"
The yelling soldier raised his crossbow and pulled the trigger at the demon-like Abyssal Lord. Then, he flung the crossbow forward with all his might, and two Sacred Silver Blades shot out from the bottom of the crossbow. The commander who had been blasted away dragged half his charred body back to the battlefield. He still had the strength to command the battle. "The demons have broken into the Holy Land! Shield formation, ignite the sacred flame, prepare the talismans — "
* Boom! *
A dazzling pillar of holy light suddenly fell from the sky and blew the commander away again. A human warrior in heavy armor and holding a silver-white warhammer in his hand walked out of the demon army. Pale golden light floated around his body, and sacred scriptures flowed on his armor. "There are more than demons here. Paladins, protect the Council! Gunners, fire at both sides! "
At this moment, looking at the Stellar Spire from the distant void, a magnificent and strange scene was unfolding. There was a big hole at the top of the Stellar Spire, and a strange army of demons poured out of it. The demonic flames were the most dazzling light in the darkness. Green and dark red evil flames spread and engulfed the entire space around the spire. The demon hunters of the Council of Elders hurriedly organized layers of defense, but every defense was quickly overwhelmed and destroyed by the demonic army. In just a few minutes, they had fallen into a situation where they were isolated and helpless.
If someone who did not know what was going on saw this, the only thought that would be: the demonic army was invading this world, and the temple warriors were fighting with their lives.
… That seemed to be the case.
The appearance of other races in the demonic army had completely disrupted the battle line that the Council of Elders had painstakingly organized and completely destroyed their ability to adapt. They did not expect a group of demons to suddenly surge into the "holy land", and now they did not expect that the demons would be accompanied by the clerics! The demon guards and the paladins charged together, while the dark elves and white elves cast a joint spell. There were also many races that had never been heard of on this planet, such as the avatar-like Astrals.
This was an invincible army that could cause tons of damage to the enemy's body and worldview.
The troops of the Council of Elders actually had good combat power. If it was a one-on-one fight, they would not necessarily be inferior to Y 'zaks' old army with their complex combat skills and equipment. But now that they had been ambushed, they panicked and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. In just a few minutes, they showed signs of collapsing and began to retreat. The demonic army did not intend to let these enemies go back to inform their superiors. The agile elves and the speedy demon guards began to chase after them.
The short-distance teleportation ability of the demon hunters was originally a wonderful skill for hunting, but now it was used to escape. The soldiers of the Council of Elders tried to teleport away from this weird battlefield. Hao Ren could not help but feel nervous when he saw this scene from afar. He did not know if the demonic army could cope with this most troublesome ability.
But soon he was not worried: the teleportation of the demon hunters did cause some confusion and consternation among the demonic warriors at first, but soon the teleportation of the demon hunters became sluggish, and there were frequent teleportation errors. It turned out that the blue Spirit Race Warlocks had arrived at the edge of the battlefield at some point. Strange runes appeared on their bodies, and teleportation spells around them were quickly disrupted to the point that they could not be used at all.
"In my hometown, space is the most unstable thing," Y 'zaks said faintly. "It is especially serious in the plane where the Astrals live. Spatial distortion is almost as common as wind and rain. To survive in this environment, even a five-year-old child should know how to strengthen the structure of space. "
Hao Ren instantly understood, and once again realized how appropriate Y 'zaks' army was here.
The unstable structure of the mysterious realm, the battlefield environment full of floating land and airborne buildings, the various abilities of the demon hunters … This demonic army was almost created to deal with this kind of battlefield!
Y 'zaks probably had everything planned. He was indeed worthy of the title of veteran warmonger …
