Banner of the Evil God

The night gradually deepened and became colder.

In this cold night, a desperate battle was going on.

On one side of the battle was an endless army of skeletons that seemed to be the embodiment of the evil intentions of the entire Black Forest; on the other side of the battle was a group of villagers who settled in this Black Forest and tried their best to protect their homes and lives.

The process of the battle was somewhat boring and monotonous. The skeletons rushed up one after another, trying to destroy the wooden fence surrounding the village, while the villagers used burning wooden sticks to hit through the gaps in the fence, beating and burning the skeletons that approached, using the flames to dispel the magic power on them, turning them into temporarily harmless skeletons.

Looking from Sui Xiong's side, you can see the black tide surging constantly, surging towards the village wrapped in the wooden fence, and then being blocked by the red flames, constantly rising and falling. Every time it rises and falls, one or several skeletons will turn into skeletons, scattered on the ground, and a small gap will appear. Then the subsequent skeletons followed up immediately, filling the gap and continuing the attack.

This is a simple repetitive process. At first glance, the villagers' defense seems impeccable. No matter how many skeletons come, they can only be blocked outside the wooden fence and roll back to the ground after the sun rises. But Sui Xiong knows that the balance of victory has completely tilted and the villagers' defeat is imminent.

The reason is simple, they are tired.

Every time they attack, they need to push back the skeletons that rush to the fence. Only in this way can they avoid the skeletons from attacking the fence. The strength of the skeletons is not weak. Every time they push them away, they have to spend a lot of effort. Since the skeleton army came to the fence, the villagers have probably pushed hundreds of times.

Hundreds of times may not seem like much, but in fact, pushing and shoving hundreds of times repeatedly is enough to make the muscles of ordinary strong men tired and sore. Sui Xiong also had fitness experience before crossing. He bench-pressed the barbell fourteen or fifteen times a set, and exercised four sets a day, which added up to only about sixty times, which was almost the limit. The villagers' "exercise intensity" must be higher than his, and they do it so many times without rest in between... To be honest, no one has collapsed from exhaustion yet, which makes Sui Xiong admire their endurance.

However, these villagers are not super strong after all. They are sweating profusely now, just trying to hold on.

But looking at the sky, although the moon is already in the west, it is still early for sunrise.

"It seems that it's almost time for me to appear..." Sui Xiong muttered to himself, and was about to jump out and make a brilliant appearance, but things changed again.

The breath that enveloped the village every night and made Sui Xiong hate it suddenly became stronger. Like a wave, it rushed towards the army of skeletons.

The crackling sound of breaking became one, and all the skeletons close to the fence were directly shattered, turning into pale bones and scattered all over the ground.

At the same time, Sui Xiong heard the sound of prayer, many prayers connected together, with a strange rhythm, pushing the breath to grow continuously.

He was surprised, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses - this world is not the earth, it has supernatural powers, such as those skeletons. Facing the attack of supernatural forces, of course, supernatural powers should be used to defend.

Perhaps, this is the real defense method of the village?

Facts have proved that Sui Xiong guessed wrong again.

Just as he was stunned, four girls in black robes came out of the stone house, each carrying a wooden cage wrapped in black cloth. They walked to one side of the village and handed the wooden cage to the four strong men who had been waiting there. The strong men took the cages carefully and threw them out with force, throwing them over the fence and into the army of skeletons.

A moment later, the shrill cry of chickens sounded in the army of skeletons, and four monsters that came from nowhere suddenly appeared in the group of skeletons and raged wildly.

These monsters have chicken heads and wings, but human-like torsos. Their sturdy limbs show extraordinary strength. Their claw-shaped hands and feet are very sharp. The skeletons fall down and break when they touch them. They are completely vulnerable. They are also very tall. The shortest one is almost as tall as three strong men, and the tallest one is even close to the height of five people.

"Strange! Where do these monsters come from?"

Sui Xiong was stunned. He could swear to Marx that he had observed this village for so long before and never found any traces of these four monsters - if he couldn't see such a big thing, he must be blind!

So, where did these four big guys come from?

No, this is not the point. The point of the problem is that with these four big guys guarding the door, the skeleton army seems to be unable to do anything to this village...

Sui Xiong does not have much combat experience and cannot accurately measure how strong the four monsters are, but seeing how they are rampaging and invincible in the skeleton group, it seems like a one-sided crushing. Although the skeletons have sufficient backup and their number is endless, no matter how endless they are, they can't do anything to these four powerful monsters that can kill a group of people in a second with a wave of their arms.

Sui Xiong couldn't help but sigh secretly.

After all, he still underestimated these villagers who could make a living in the Black Forest!

But not long after, he found that his previous estimate was correct, and the strength of this village was not that strong.

After about half an hour, the four monsters suddenly let out a shrill scream, and their bodies, which had been basically unscathed in the fierce battle, began to tremble violently. A moment later, with four explosions, they turned into a pool of blood.

Seeing this scene, the villagers seemed a little disappointed, but Sui Xiong was relieved.

It was still early, and his original plan for the savior to make a brilliant appearance should still be implemented in time.

No, in fact, the situation is very good now. Because of the struggle of the four monsters during this period, the number of skeletons has been reduced a lot, and it is no longer as dense as before. Although the reinforcements from the underground are still coming in, it will take some time to recover to the previous level. On the other hand, the villagers have recovered a lot of their physical strength after this period of rest. Even if they can't hold on, at least the entire defense line will not collapse all at once, so Sui Xiong will be able to save everyone when he appears later.

This is a good thing. It's just that the villagers may be a little scared, but after all, there will be no danger.

Sui Xiong was confident that as long as he jumped to the village and circled around the fence, he could kill more than 80% of the skeleton army. The remaining two or three kittens could just play whack-a-mole slowly.

No problem, everything was calculated.

The destruction of the four monsters was obviously also calculated by the villagers. They just sighed slightly and continued to fight against the skeleton army.

The situation was no different from before. The skeletons rushed to the fence, and the villagers pushed them back with burning sticks, burning them again and again until they collapsed.

But soon, Sui Xiong saw the problem.

The villagers' strength was far worse than before!

After all, they were exhausted. Even if they rested for more than half an hour, they could not recover much.

In fact, this is still a small matter. In the face of life and death crisis, even a pig will squeeze out the last bit of strength to fight to the end, let alone a human. Although these villagers are panting, Sui Xiong dares to bet that they can at least hold on for more than an hour!

In contrast, another crisis is imminent.

The wooden fence may not hold up soon!

The wooden fence surrounding the village is indeed strong, but no matter how strong it is, it is just wood. On this night, they were constantly attacked by the skeleton army and burned countless times by burning wood strips. They are almost at their limit. If this world is a game, I am afraid that the durability of this wooden fence has become red and it is about to collapse.

Once the fence collapses, the entire defense line will completely collapse.

At this time, the village gate that had been closed all the time opened.

As if someone was secretly controlling it remotely, the skeleton army that was originally frantically attacking the fence all stopped and rushed towards the village gate in a hurry.

Sui Xiong was stunned. He couldn't understand the way these skeletons think.

After struggling for most of the night, they were about to completely destroy the wooden fence and flood the village. Why did they ignore the wooden fence and go straight to the gate as soon as the door opened?

What kind of logic is this!

Sui Xiong felt that only those old enlightenment-level games could have such a mentally retarded artificial intelligence.

Oh... these skeletons have been dead for a long time, not even artificial, let alone intelligent...

Just as he was secretly complaining, the skeleton army that originally surrounded the entire village had gathered at the door and rushed up one after another.

The ones responsible for resisting them were naturally the strong men who had been recuperating before.

These strong men wore animal skin armor, wielded heavy weapons such as axes and hammers, and smashed the skeletons that rushed over one after another. The strong physique trained by years of logging contained extraordinary power. Those black skeletons were no match at all, and a large number of them fell down in a short while.

However, such a fierce battle also consumes a lot of physical strength. After only ten minutes, those men who have been logging for years and are as strong as bulls began to pant.

The bald man who was guarding the door before waved his hand and ordered them to retreat, and he took two or three strong men to block it.

His strength is obviously much stronger than that of ordinary lumberjacks. With a swing of the axe, several skeletons fell down, just like mowing the grass.

Sui Xiong couldn't help but be secretly surprised. At first glance, this bald man didn't look much stronger than those lumberjacks, but his fighting power was completely different. It was not like the same species. What did he eat to grow up so strong?

After getting along well with the people in this village, I must have a good exchange with him. If I can learn his experience of becoming stronger, with the foundation of my own flesh, I will definitely be strong enough to defy the heavens!

However, the endurance of this defying heaven strong man seems to be very problematic. After fighting for only about twice the time of ordinary people, he began to pant and retreat, letting other lumberjacks take over, and retreating to the back to have a good rest.

Of course, in this short period of time, he defeated at least two or three hundred skeletons, and his record was brilliant.

This guy is really strong!
