The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 696 Fallen Angel
"Those demons are very powerful, and we have never seen them before. Even without the hero leading us, our soldiers defending the city are no match for them.
Although my level is not particularly high, I have learned many levels by following the leader of the army, Reina.
I guess those demons are probably level 9."
As soon as Wang Chao said this, Xu Lai couldn't help but frown and said, "Are you sure? Does hell have a new level 9 soldier?"
Level 9 is not an ordinary soldier, but an ultimate soldier.
Among the nine major camps in the world, the most powerful human beings only have one ultimate soldier.
No matter how powerful hell is, it is impossible to mass-produce so many level 9 soldiers that have never been seen before.
Wang Chao was actually not sure. The demons of hell had just left, and he didn't get the battle report.
After hesitating for a while, Wang Chao said, "Captain Reina still attaches great importance to Little Gray Castle.
I brought 5,000 people from the logistics troops to garrison here. Commander Reina also specially sent a thousand level 7 warriors, 500 golden armored warriors, and 500 sky shooters.
There were about 300 demons, and it took no more than 20 minutes from the arrival to the departure.
In these 20 minutes, they slaughtered a total of 500 golden armored warriors, and cut them into pieces, completely destroying the corpses.
Golden armored warriors are melee soldiers, wearing heavy armor. Even if they are just recruited units, they have my master-level defense bonus.
I can be sure that those demons are not level 9, but at least level 8 top demons, but I don’t seem to see them use skills."
Wang Chao’s defense level is not bad, but later Xu Lai needed him to be in charge of the logistics troops, so he focused on auxiliary abilities such as logistics, pathfinding, and reconnaissance.
Of course, Xu Lai would not blame Wang Chao for retreating, hiding in the bunker, and resisting passively.
After saying that, Wang Chao glanced at Xu Lai, as if he was hesitating whether to ask for forgiveness or something.
But after looking at Elvy beside Xu Lai, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said:
"By the way, Brother Xu, I almost forgot to say that the demons that came here are not very similar to the demons.
They don't have demon horns or demon wings, they are tall, and they are all handsome and good-looking.
If they weren't all black, I almost thought they were angels coming."
After hearing this, Xu Lai didn't react, but Elvy exclaimed: "It's them."
Xu Lai was stunned and looked at Elvy.
Elvie sighed and said, "The Hell Camp has been trying to corrupt us.
They believe that only by corrupting the most sacred angels can they prove that the demons are the most powerful camp and race."
"Corrupt, how to corrupt?"
Elvie shook her head and said, "I don't know. Angels are sacred. I really can't imagine how to corrupt angels.
I have always thought that fallen angels are impossible to exist, but I didn't expect Kerrigan to really succeed in creating fallen angels."
Xu Lai shrugged. Even if he succeeded in making fallen angels, it would only be an extra 9th-level soldier.
And from the name, you can tell that fallen angels must be based on angels.
Not to mention the difficulty of corrupting angels, there are not many angels in the entire human camp, and how many can Kerrigan have.
The reason why he played the fallen angel card and directly attacked Xu Lai's rear city should be to intimidate them.
Angels have a lofty status in the human camp. Kerrigan even corrupted angels, which is enough to prove two things.
First, Lionheart City and Holy Angel City may have really been destroyed, and a large number of angels have fallen into Kerrigan's hands.
Whether he uses charm or any other method, he controls the angels for his own use.
He uses these angels to attack and destroy humans, which is an extremely fatal blow to human morale.
In addition to undermining human morale, Kerrigan's move will also shake the foundation of the God of War and the Temple.
When people find that the angels who originally protected them have become butchers who kill them, their faith may collapse in an instant.
With the collapse of faith, the power of the God of War and the help given by the God of War to humans will naturally be greatly weakened, which is equivalent to weakening the power of the human camp.
The second thing is to prove to humans and other demons that he, Kerrigan, is still powerful.
Recently, the demons have been attacked by Xu Lai so badly that even the Gate of the Abyss has been destroyed. If Kerrigan does not do something to prove himself, the morale of the demons may never rise again.
At the same time, Kerrigan also used these angels to prove to Xu Lai that he has the ability to attack Xu Lai's rear.
If Xu Lai concentrated most of his forces in Gray Castle, the cities in the rear would lose their protection.
In the small Gray Castle that Reina valued so much, those fallen angels could come and go freely and slaughter high-level combat units at will.
For the other cities in the rear, not to mention the defensive forces, even the security guards of the security team might not be fully equipped.
Such cities have even less resistance to these fallen angels.
Of course, it is generally difficult to occupy a city by relying solely on the air force.
Although Xu Lai only brought elite troops to capture Conaston Castle, he was a human after all, and he had help from others, and the army was transferred in time.
With only the three or five hundred air forces, the demons could only kill people to vent their anger at most. It was absolutely impossible to dig slowly and dig three feet into the heart of the castle.
But even so, Xu Lai had to arrange a longer defense line, especially air supremacy.
And the fallen angels, in addition to their own strong strength, also have the help of Kerrigan's demon army.
Although Xu Lai also has an angel army, it is relatively weak.
"Wang Chao, you will tell the brothers later:
The demon that attacked this time is called the Terror Demon, which is an advanced form of the Succubus. Its characteristic is that it transforms into an angel to create panic!
In addition to the army, notices must be posted in the city and the content of the notice must be passed to other cities.
I will say hello to Su Ya and ask all the cities in the rear to post it and spread it widely."
Compared with the fallen angels, if it is just a demon, then slaughtering humans is a normal thing.
In addition to arousing human hatred and a more rebellious mentality, it will not have a big impact on morale.
Wang Chao also quickly understood Xu Lai's idea. He did not want to damage the image of the angel.
Like Xu Lai, Wang Chao is not a believer.
But he knew that the humans in the entire empire camp were basically believers of the God of War, or at least pan-believers.
Once the people knew that the most loyal warriors of His Majesty the God of War had rebelled, I don’t know how much panic would be caused.
“Yes, I’ll do it right away!”
As the first crime scene, many people saw the fallen angel in Little Gray Castle.
Maybe they didn’t think of it for a while, but like Wang Chao, when they saw the angel, they would instinctively compare.
It is better to block than to open. Instead of letting them keep silent and guess privately, it is better for Xu Lai to give them an answer directly.
Anyway, Kerrigan couldn’t jump out to refute that these terrifying demons were transformed by him using angels.
Even if he could really jump out, could Kerrigan’s credit still be compared with his Xu Lai?
Xu Lai’s physical strength was seriously insufficient, but he still didn’t go down to rest.
He stood in front of the blood stains and personally commanded his personal guards, as well as the craftsmen and soldiers of Little Gray Castle, to clean up the blood stains on the ground and walls.
The flesh and blood, and the fragments that were picked up, were all put into wooden boxes.
After the priests arrived, they were purified and buried.
In fact, most of the dead were recruited soldiers, and only a few officers and a few craftsmen who were working died.
After a while, the flesh and blood on the ground and the wall will naturally turn into light and disappear.
But Xu Lai couldn't wait until then.
Dragging his tired body, he stood in front of all the soldiers and civilians, and told them that he would definitely avenge them and never let their blood flow in vain today.
Xu Lai's impromptu speech was certainly to boost the morale of Little Gray Castle, but it was also a true reflection of his heart.
Coming to this world, Xu Lai's losses were limited. This time, more than 500 high-level warriors were killed in one breath, which was already a huge loss.
With his current status as the king of the Eagle Kingdom, it would be unreasonable not to express his loss.
Elvy stood beside him, using her body to support Xu Lai, and also silently thanked him for maintaining the image of an angel.
You know, if Xu Lai hadn't stood up and used his status as a king and all his past reputation as a guarantee, no matter how the angels explained, they would definitely be suspected and distrusted.
After a long time of busy work, Xu Lai simply lived in Little Gray Castle.
Anyway, there were rooms here that he cleaned himself, and the two strongest heroes under his command gathered in Gray Castle.
Xu Lai lived here, and Lena, Tahan, Yan Feng and others naturally had to come to Little Gray Castle to meet him.
Giselle, Yu Lan, Anna and others, as Xu Lai's wives, naturally lived here directly.
After a dinner that was not rich and could even be said to be very simple, Xu Lai discussed business with everyone.
The first thing to mention was the location, movement, and plan of Kerrigan's troops.
"The current intelligence can only confirm that Kerrigan personally brought some demons back for help.
It's hard to say how many there are, and our scout knights can't get too close."
First, Xu Lai's intelligence officer, Jian Yuan, reported.
Then Lena added: "Currently, Kerrigan has only sent some winged demons to harass and investigate briefly.
He didn't send out the demons, so I didn't ask the angel army to send out, and only used the griffins to drive them away.
I was a little too negligent about the airspace, and let the demons sneak attack the rear, which is my responsibility."
As the commander designated before Xu Lai left, Lena also took her own responsibility at the first time.
Xu Lai waved his hand and said: "Let's talk about the responsibility later. Now let's think about how to deal with it."
Yu Lan stood up and added some tea for Xu Lai, and then said:
"I think if we want to know how to deal with it later, we should first figure out why Kerrigan chose Little Gray Castle as the first target."
Why did Kerrigan choose Little Gray Castle as the first target?
Knowing that Little Gray Castle is not far from the main force of humans, it can get support at the first time.
It's because Kerrigan wants to make a big splash in the face of humans.
In addition, it is because he himself knows very well that the land of the Western Empire has been plowed several times by demons, and there are not many people left.
The bustling castle in the past might have had hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, but now it is estimated to have only 10,000 or 20,000 people at most.
Sending a group of fallen angels who were finally corrupted to the enemy's rear without other support would not achieve much results.
If it were Xu Lai, Xu Lai wouldn't want to throw the fallen angel to the enemy's rear.
If one person comes and never comes back, then there will be no place to cry.
Didn't you see those fallen angels, besides the massacre, they were still monitoring the nearby support.
Before Xu Lai and the others arrived, these guys immediately evacuated, obviously not wanting to take any risks.
After understanding this, Xu Lai's worries became much less.
“I think what Kerrigan needs now is a hearty victory that can completely boost the devil’s morale.
The reason why he chose to take action against Little Gray Castle was because he was not confident that he could take down Gray Castle. He did not dare to take action easily before he was completely sure.
Also, if I remember correctly, His Majesty the Pope, many crimson bishops, and even the Angel Legion are in the City of Holy Angels.
Even if Kerrigan breaks through Holy Angel City, it is impossible for him to suffer no losses at all, not to mention that he is still anxious to come back for rescue.
I think we can ask Bishop Duer if none of the main forces in the temple have escaped. "
Xu Lai nodded and said: "I also don't believe that Holy Angel City, which has been inherited for thousands of years, was destroyed by Kerrigan like this."
The temple left a deep impression on Xu Lai at first, with the rows of angels who voluntarily turned into statues just to be able to come back when needed.
There is also the leader of the First Knights who even Xu Lai can't see clearly, and the Pope who is recognized by the whole world as the strongest person on the face of the earth.
Coupled with the large group of priests and knights who rushed back, even if they were destroyed, there would be no news at all.
Xu Lai rubbed his palms and thought for a while and said: "Krigan didn't want to attack the city. On the one hand, he thought that he suffered too many losses when he attacked Lion Heart City and Holy Angel City.
Secondly, Graycastle was originally a military fortress, and now it gathered most of the power of the Eagle Kingdom. Kerrigan was still hesitant.
In fact, he is not particularly clear about our strength.
On the contrary, we don’t know enough about him.
I'm thinking, why don't we take the initiative to go out of the city and go find him to test him out?
If he avoids fighting even when we take the initiative to leave the city, it means that Kerrigan really has little confidence, or the losses are particularly serious. "
"No, Your Majesty. It would be unwise for us to give up the huge advantage of defending the city and go to fight with Kerrigan in the field."
Rena is good at defense and is very confident in defending the city, but does not agree to take the initiative.
However, Tahan, who had never spoken, said: "I think His Majesty the King is right. The general is willing to march forward for the King."
He is the commander of the cavalry. The cavalry has no advantage in defending the city, and there is no need for so many people to be stationed in Gray Castle.
And what Xu said made sense. Kerrigan's true strength had to be tested, otherwise it would be difficult to plan the next move. (End of chapter)
