The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 672 The overall situation has been determined

In addition to Xu Lai himself, his troops were also promoted in batches. The most promoted troops were naturally the Naga Guards led by Emilia.

However, Emilia also had a ridiculous thing happen.

Because Xu Lai took on all the expenses, Emilia didn't prepare much.

This large-scale promotion included all the Naga Sword Saints who had already reached the maximum level.

It would cost tens of thousands of gold coins to promote any eight-armed Naga, and some rare resources had to be brought along.

As for gold coins, the spoils alone would definitely not be enough. Fortunately, Emilia still had her own small reserves, such as pocket money.

This pocket money, even with the tens of thousands of gold coins from the spoils, was not enough for many people to advance.

The advancement of the strength of the Deep Sea Tribe was their own business. No commander would pay out of his own pocket to cover the cost of upgrading.

However, Xu Lai did this, and Emilia also felt that after the strength was improved, they could better deal with the crisis later.

So Emilia went straight to Xu Lai and asked to borrow 200,000 gold coins.

Emilia searched the Naga Guards for all kinds of things and estimated that there was only a gap of 200,000 gold at most.

However, Xu Lai gave her 500,000 directly, so that the girl would not be embarrassed to ask for it again next time she wanted to advance.

She just asked to borrow. In fact, even if she wanted, Xu Lai should give it.

It is reasonable to ask people to help and pay some military expenses.

Only when people get benefits, they will be willing to help you actively when encountering such things in the future.

Otherwise, he will have to fight every other day, and the friendship between the Nagas and him will be exhausted.

After the battle, Xu Lai led the large army to rest for a day.

Elvi, Jian Yuan, Eric and others led the small army to clear all the demon cities, strongholds, towns and resource points within a radius of thousands of kilometers.

The golden dragon and the black dragon will not take that long, but there are still 3 sacred beasts, the water unicorn.

Xu Lai wants to make full use of these three sacred beasts before they disappear naturally.

With these three water unicorns leading the charge, there is also a large group of seraphim waiting in the rear, and dozens of archangels acting as thugs.

Even without Xu Lai's blessing, there was almost no decent resistance.

After the defeat, Mendis did not dare to go back to Kerrigan directly.

In the past two days, Kerrigan has also been really angry, sending a large number of slaves and low-level demons to consume the strength of humans.

However, it is still unknown how long this consumption will last.

As a last resort, he could only dispatch a large number of troops to besiege Lionheart City and cut off the transmission function of Lionheart City first.

This requires a large number of troops, especially since Lionheart City is so huge that slaves and low-level demons can't support it at all.

Kerrigan can only send mid-level troops to the stage, and these mid-level troops cannot be completely used as consumables, which no one can afford.

Especially when the opponent is human, the treatment and recovery of the priest increases the endurance of human warriors several times.

The nine camps generally recognize that the most difficult ones are human and undead troops.

Kerrigan didn't have the Gate of Hell, so he couldn't summon cannon fodder from hell for the time being, so he could only send a letter to urge Mondis.

After Mondis was defeated, he didn't dare to tell Kerrigan the truth, let alone let Xu Lai rob Kasai City.

Of course, the truth can't be hidden, and there is still a female devil in Kasai City.

However, the Abyss Lord Kerrigan, who was always prone to anger, did not blame Mondis this time.

After learning that Xu Lai led the human army to advance all the way and broke through several large cities on the Kasai Plain.

Kerrigan didn't rush Mondis back to join the war, but just asked him to send someone to send his Gate of Hell back.

Although Mondis was very reluctant to give up the Gate of Hell, he didn't dare to disobey Kerrigan's order, so he had to send the Gate of Hell away.

The latest order given by Kerrigan to Mondis was to stop the human army from continuing to move east at all costs.

After crossing the Kasai Plain, there was only a gray valley away from Kerrigan's temporary base camp, Briston.

Briston was originally the capital of the Western Empire. After being occupied by Kerrigan, it had already been transformed into a hell city.

Kerrigan not only moved his palace into Briston, but also opened the second hell gate in Briston.

Kerrigan's main body in hell, even opening two hell gates, was also seriously damaged.

It is impossible to open a third one in a short period of time.

And this short time is only relative to the hell demons. If converted into human time, it is impossible within a hundred years.

In order to defend Briston, Kerrigan also specially transformed the Grey Valley, making the terrain here more rugged and full of magma.

The original Grey Valley was named because of the lack of green plants. At this time, the Grey Valley has long become a lava valley.

But no matter how good the terrain of the Grey Valley is, without a superhero sitting in it, Kerrigan is really uneasy.

This is why he can suppress his anger and let Mendis make meritorious contributions.

However, although Kerrigan authorized Mendis to command the army of the Grey Valley,

But Mendis was not qualified to mobilize the army of Ashenvale, and the army there had to be stationed in Ashenvale without fail.

After suffering a series of defeats, especially after losing all the fire elves of Ferris, Mendis kept a low profile.

Not only did Mendis not intervene in all the defenses of Kasai City, but he actively cooperated.

Using the castle gate transformed from Kasai City, he cast the Hell Gate spell and actively helped evacuate the surrounding demons.

In addition to evacuation, the Hell Gate can also summon hell demons.

However, none of them knew the time of Xu Lai's attack.

It is easy to summon hell demons, but you can't just ignore them after you summon them.

Demons are not slaves, especially those summoned, who don't even have to pay wages.

Ordinary summoners have to contribute sacrifices to summon creatures from other dimensions to help.

Mendis used the Hell Gate to forcefully summon. If he didn't serve them well, he might fight with his own people first when he got angry.

However, demons consume a lot, especially those carnivorous demons.

Even if all the slaves in Kasai City were eaten up, they couldn't last too long.

Moreover, demons don't produce anything. If they really eat up all the slaves, who will help them reproduce?

What's more, summoned demons are not permanent.

Generally speaking, the demons summoned through the gate of hell can only exist for 24 hours at most.

After this time limit, it is not impossible to let them stay in the main world, but at that time they need extra mana to maintain.

Even with the glorious aura, after losing nearly a thousand abyss lords, the summoning limit and maintenance time have suffered great losses.

Xu Lai did not take down Kasai City in one go. As a marquis castle, Kasai City was built very magnificently.

After the transformation of the demons, Kasai City became easier to defend and harder to attack.

The moat was changed to flowing magma. People were scalded to death when they waded through this thing to attack the city.

In addition to the defense on the ground, there are at least a dozen fire demon towers on the city walls, and each fire demon tower has at least 3-4 fire trolls.

The main tower is even more terrifying. There is actually a fire demon in it, who is not sure where it came from.

As a spellcasting unit, even if it is just a fireball thrown, the range cannot be compared with that of a shooter.

But the Fire Demon Tower has two functions, one is to increase the range, and the other is to increase the power of the fireball.

Even with the Fire Demon Tower, Xu Lai is not very afraid, after all, the range of the Phantom Archer is even more terrifying.

But the opponent still has the city wall, the city wall plus the Fire Demon Tower, even if the Fu Tower is not as good as the Phantom Archer, the Fire Demon on the main tower can definitely shoot back.

This Fire Demon was tested by the three water unicorns with the last residual heat.

Unfortunately, the number of the three water unicorns is too small.

After smashing thousands of long-horned demons on the city wall, a dozen catapults, and more than 40 crossbow carts, they were killed by Mendis and the Fire Demon.

The good news is that Xu Lai does not have to worry too much about the opponent's city defense weapons.

With the ultimate archery plus the ultimate ballistics, and the crossbow specialty of Ferris, plus the range and power advantages of the city wall.

These more than 40 advanced crossbow carts are at least equivalent to 400 high-level troops, and they are still long-range high-level troops.

The bad news is that the three water unicorns have used their lives to verify the defensive strength of Kasai City.

With Xu Lai's help, the three water unicorns are almost invincible.

Xu Lai originally just wanted to use their last time to cover the army's siege.

Unexpectedly, his catapults have not been assembled yet, and the main force has not yet joined the battle, and the water unicorns have been destroyed.

The more than 50 high-level crossbow carts on the city wall are too powerful with the blessing of ultimate archery and ballistics.

The water unicorn tried its best, but only destroyed more than 40 of them. The thousands of long-horned demons responsible for the control can only be regarded as a bonus.

But although the city wall was temporarily cleared, Ferris's specialty is still good at crossbow cart making.

Due to the limitation of materials, she may only make 50 or 60 high-level crossbow carts, but the number of ordinary crossbow carts that are inferior is definitely not small.

After comprehensive deployment, even if the power of the city defense weapons is reduced, it will not be too much.

On Xu Lai's side, the main force is cavalry, and the siege capability is not strong.

In terms of the air force, because the fire elves were completely wiped out and the winged demons suffered a lot of losses, his side had an absolute advantage.

But on the one hand, if the air force is deployed, unless it is high-altitude reconnaissance, it will still be unable to avoid the fate of being shot by the opponent's long-range troops.

Secondly, although his air force has a certain advantage, it is relatively weak in quantity.

The opponent has the help of Mendis, and there are a large number of flying abyss demons and abyss lords.

They don't need air superiority, they just need to hold back Elvy and others and prevent the angel troops from opening the city gate.

What's more, if Xu Lai only dispatches the air force, Elvy and others will be caught in a group fight, which is more dangerous.

There is no way to have both, so Xu Lai will delay first.

Anyway, he has a large number of cavalry troops, and the entire Pafikes Plain is free to roam.

Moreover, after the siege of Kasai City, the castle gate of Kasai City has become useless and can no longer be used to transmit troops between castles.

Xu Lai didn't know that Mendis could use magic to turn the castle gate into the gate of hell.

But this had no effect on the battle situation.

During Xu Lai's attack on the castle, the demons were unable to resist.

Ferris also knew that facing a powerful superhero like Xu Lai, no matter how many demons were stationed outside, they could only delay time.

Compared with humans, demons were actually a rare party.

Therefore, Ferris was unwilling to lose troops in vain. Her strategy was to leave only a small number of demons in each stronghold.

These demons used the city defenses to counterattack the human troops and consume the strength of the human troops.

But unfortunately, Xu Lai had the Angel Legion here, and there were three super meat shields.

Not to mention the water unicorn, Xu Lai's troops would not have any casualties.

Even if there were, as long as thousands of people did not die at once, they could all be pulled up in one night.

Because of this strategy, there are now a large number of demon troops in Kasai City, even to the extent that they have become a serious burden.

In this case, Ferris only hopes that the human troops can come to attack the city immediately, and both sides will consume some troops.

Even if the ratio of consumption is ten to one, Ferris is willing.

The problem is that Xu Lai is not willing.

For him, it is only a matter of time to take over the Pafikes Plain.

Now there is only one lonely city left in the entire plain, Kasai City.

Xu Lai was so crazy that he used human lives to consume the enemy when he had no advantage in the siege.

Avid finally sent a batch of catapults, but he couldn't even shoot the enemy's crossbow carts, let alone fight against the enemy's catapults.

If Xu Lai was the defender, he would definitely not be willing to use the equipment even if he had the advantage.

He could even give up the city wall.

If you don't want to sacrifice the child, you can't catch the wolf. If you don't want to put down any bait, how can you expect the fish to take the bait?

What's more, after taking over the Paphike Plain, Xu Lai was busy all day long.

More than a dozen cities, hundreds of towns, thousands of villages and resource points, and hundreds of rebel forces of varying strengths.

It's easy to take down these cities, but it's not so easy to govern them.

Although Xu Lai consciously cultivated talents in echelons, he didn't have enough time.

Not only was he making good progress here, but Rena was escorted by the Coast Guard and had high-level infantry and archer troops.

In addition, every battle must have a fearless summoned dragon, so Lena also made great progress and was invincible.

With so many territories, they cannot be left vacant after being taken.

To restore production, there must be enough people first.

The damage caused by the demons to the Western Empire was extremely huge, especially the loss of manpower.

This made it extremely difficult for Xu Lai to restore the previous structure.

Many cities, even if they were recovered, could only be temporarily vacant.

Some villages and towns could only be demolished first to concentrate resources as much as possible.

Xu Lai, who was forced to no choice, even thought of issuing tasks in the Mercenary Guild to recruit some advent heroes to restore production.

Not to mention, these advent heroes dreamed of having their own territory. Even if the conditions proposed by Xu Lai were not very good, there were many responses. (End of this chapter)
