The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Xu Lai imitated the way of fighting in ancient times and ordered all cities near Graycastle to build beacon towers.

Once the lookouts found traces of demons around, they would immediately ring the alarm and light a bonfire.

Not to mention, this method is somewhat useful.

The lookouts on the watchtowers have a very long observation distance. Both the big demons and the fallen angels are large creatures, and they appear in groups, so they are easy to be discovered.

Of course, both demons and fallen angels are extremely fast.

Even without hero bonuses and logistics skills, it takes less than a few minutes to fly over a distance of several kilometers.

If the residents in the city have not been trained in rapid evacuation, it is difficult to complete the evacuation quickly in such a short time.

However, even if you can't escape to a shelter such as a basement, find a nearby building, even if you just hide in your own home.

With the strength of the demons, it is not difficult to destroy a house.

But the defense and durability of the building are much stronger than ordinary people, which will greatly reduce the killing efficiency of the demons.

At the same time, Elvy, who saw the smoke, would lead the team to support in time.

Generally speaking, the demons only have about ten minutes of destruction time, and will not cause too many casualties.

Although the casualties may not be large, it will make people panic and make Elvy and others exhausted.

Moreover, the casualties are not large at one time. The People's Demon has three teams of people, and it has not been said that they can only go out once a day.

Accumulated, the daily casualties cannot be underestimated.

Especially the land on the Western Empire side, which is already seriously short of population.

Only by engaging in more normal agricultural production activities can the normal recovery of land be accelerated.

And the population, which is already seriously insufficient, has been closed because of the continuous attacks, and no one dares to go out to work.

They dare not go out, let alone supply military rations to the front line, even they themselves will starve to death.

Xu Lai's warehouse ring can only supply food to Gray Castle. He can't go to each city to deliver food every day.

Even if he works hard, others have to dare to come out to collect it.

Even though Xu Lai brought an invincible guard, he didn't dare to say that there was no danger at all.

After all, if the demons knew Xu Lai's identity, and they could fly and teleport, and they were specifically targeting Xu Lai to kill, they might have a chance.

The most important thing is that even if Xu Lai was equipped with a full-time priest to cast recovery spells for the angels to speed up physical recovery.

But a team of angels could not keep up with the consumption of three teams of demons.

It can only be said that Xu Lai can't fly. If he also had a pair of wings, he could follow Elvy and the others.

If Xu Lai followed them, none of the demons and fallen angels would be able to escape. Speed ​​and prayer are not vegetarian.

In this case, even if the angels can rely on morale and natural stronger speed to barely catch up, it will definitely not be possible in a short time.

During the pursuit, the other two teams of demons will definitely take the opportunity to raid human villages and towns.

Even if they don't take the opportunity to raid, they will quietly gather together and surround the angels on three sides, and Elvy and the others will be in danger.

Although the demons will not harass towns too far away, it is not certain, after all, all the surroundings have been harassed several times.

Xu Lai must find a way to solve this problem.

Otherwise, if it is left alone, it will be a huge blow to the morale of the troops and the newly established Eagle Kingdom.

The most ideal way is naturally to set up some ambushes, and it is best to kill these demons in one go.

But this is extremely difficult, they can fly and teleport, and their speed is not low.

Unless you use magic to control these demons.

Just controlling them is not enough. For advanced spells like bewitching people, even if Xu Lai has a very high spirit value, he can't control them for too long.

In such a short time, unless Xu Lai ambushed a large number of troops and could output a large amount in a short time, he would not be able to kill a few demons.

And for blindness, it is only possible to control the recruited demons. Even if other demons are blind, they will not be stupid enough to stay still.

Even the recruited demons cannot be completely controlled, because they will wake up once they are attacked.

Therefore, unless these demons can be killed in seconds, it is useless to go blind.

The most outrageous thing is that even if Xu Lai is willing to use scrolls to control them in turn, the big demons are completely immune to fire spells.

At present, the control spells that Xu Lai has mastered seem to be all fire spells, except for the forbidden spell he just learned.

The demon Norman Davis was originally just a big demon captain, responsible for managing 50 big demons.

Because the demons led by his team are all recruited.

And Davis has high requirements. The demons under his command must have at least 3 combat skills in addition to basic skills, not counting those with equipment.

The so-called basic skills are similar to the shield attack activated when the shield is used to a certain level, and the charge activated when the running reaches a certain level.

Although these skills are also combat skills, they are all basic skills, so they are also classified as basic skills.

In addition to basic skills, there are many inherited and self-created skills, such as the warrior's roar, the archer's ice arrow, etc.

Because of this, Davis and his team are one of the few elite teams in the demon army.

Davis's team was not only highly valued by Tren, but also well-known by Kerrigan.

Tren and the 1,000 great demons he led had basically died in Briston.

Kerrigan didn't want to blame anyone now. He just promoted two generals in the demon army as the Lord of Hell.

Norman Davis was a demon general who had just advanced.

The other was a Hellboy who had cultivated to the 9th level with his own strength.

Although the team led by that general was not strong, his personal combat power was the strongest in the entire demon army except for Tren.

Therefore, this demon general was left by Kerrigan's side waiting for dispatch, while Davis was sent out to do this kind of hard work.

Generals and heroes rely not on their own strength, but on the bonus to their subordinates, so that the entire team can exert the strongest combat power.

Therefore, Davis was upset about being ranked second.

Over the past few days, he did not dare to slack off for a moment, and commanded three teams of demons to harass in batches.

However, humans have become smarter now, and have begun to know how to make signal smoke, and even sent dragon knights to follow them.

No matter how strong a single dragon knight is, it is impossible for him to be the opponent of more than 500 big demons.

But the dragon knight is not slow, and his level is level 9, and his personal combat power is not weak.

Unless he can sneak attack and find a way to cut off or injure the wings of the dragon knight.

Otherwise, the dragon knight, even if it has no effect on the demon team, can always lock the position of this team of demons.

After the position is exposed, it will not be so easy to sneak attack the human town.

With only one team of big demons and one team of fallen angels left, it is not so easy to mobilize angels and it is not easy to achieve any results.

However, after two days of exhaustion, Davis found an excellent opportunity.

Probably because of too frequent harassment, those human cities have been out of food, so a food delivery team was sent from the rear.

Of course, in order to avoid being attacked by demons and fallen angels, this grain transport team is also fully armed.

With 5,000 archers guarding beside, their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

When the new empire troops came to challenge that day, Davis accompanied Kerrigan and watched the whole process from the sky.

These archers can shoot far, run fast, and their arrows are powerful and can penetrate armor. They are indeed very strong.

But if humans think that this is infallible, it is too presumptuous.

You know, the most uncomfortable thing about these archers is their swift speed.

They can only take advantage of them while running and fighting, and they are unwilling to suffer any loss, which is really uncomfortable.

However, when they become someone else's guards, the speed that makes them most proud will also lose its effect.

However, their output ability is still quite strong. Before, at such a long distance, at the extreme range, they almost shot and killed many 7th-level lava trolls.

After all, they used heavy arrows that could penetrate armor, plus the output of skills, and the blessing of artifacts such as the Angel Alliance, so the power was actually not bad.

However, Kerrigan made a prompt decision and sent out the Fallen Angels for support.

The most criticized thing about the Hell Camp is that its endurance is relatively poor.

The tactics of the evil god and the long horns can only exchange for a large number of pigs with little output ability, and cannot improve the offensive ability of the Hell Campi

Now with the powerful healing ability of these hundreds of 9th-level Fallen Angels, their demon troops are no longer afraid of fighting head-on.

500 big demons, plus nearly 500 Fallen Angels, a total of 1,000 top demons, Davis believes that they can completely eat up this human transport team.

You know, this transport team, in addition to the escort of 5,000 top archers, there are more than 3,000 mid-level infantry and nearly 10,000 civilians.

These 10,000 civilians alone have reached all the gains they have made in these busy days.

With the current population of the Western Empire, it is unlikely that they could organize a second group of 10,000 civilians without the migration from the grassland.

Not to mention that these civilians also transported a large amount of food, ammunition and other supplies.

If this team was robbed, it would be a huge blow to humans.

The most important thing is that if the rob is successful this time, humans will either dare not transport supplies again.

Even if they want to, they will have to spend a greater price to escort them.

What's more, it takes time to raise supplies. As long as they continue to harass during this period, a group of humans near Gray Castle will starve to death.

Davis naturally couldn't miss such a good thing that could kill two birds with one stone.

In order to prevent accidents, he also deliberately dispatched a group of demons to forcibly harass a human town under the prying eyes of the dragon knight.

Sure enough, before this group of demons arrived, the angel army led by Elvy had been waiting there early.

The demon captain who led the team turned around and ran without saying a word.

He didn't dare to use all his strength. He had a movement speed of 16 points, but he only dared to run 15 points, giving Elvy and the others hope that they could catch up quickly.

Past experience told them that once the angels thought that the pursuit would take too much time, they would stop to rest to save energy.

Therefore, the demon captain, holding a spell scroll that accelerated the attack, had been carefully suppressing the speed.

It was not until Davis confirmed that the group of angels had been led far enough that the real demon main force was dispatched.

In this case, even if the archers sent out a signal for help, the angels would not be able to get back in a short time.

Of course, ideals are full, but reality is very skinny.

Angels and dragon knights, as Davis thought, were lured away from the mountain, and they would definitely not be able to rescue in a short time.

But when Xu Lai learned about the abnormal behavior of the demon army, he was 100% sure that the demons must have taken the bait.

Davis didn't know that if Xu Lai really wanted to transport food, he would never transport it from the rear thousands of miles away.

He directly moved a certain amount of food from the warehouse ring, organized a food transport team in the Gray Valley, and transported it to nearby cities, which would be much faster and more convenient.

So, when Elvy was about to catch up, but was thrown off by the demon team that used attack acceleration, Xu Lai knew that the demons were about to go out.

However, the team of demons that escaped probably didn't expect that Elvy also had an acceleration scroll on her.

They couldn't release strategic spells, and even if they tore the scroll, they only had ordinary acceleration effects.

But as long as the acceleration effect of both sides is the same, even if there is a slight difference, it will not affect them at all.

The speed of the Seraphim and Archangel is several points faster than that of the Great Demon.

The demon captain was visibly panicked and immediately flapped his wings with all his strength.

As soon as the time came, they were teleported to a very long distance.

However, they were still being approached by Elvy and the others, and the anxious Great Demon took the lead in releasing a distress signal.

This distress signal scared both parties who were about to meet.

Davis instinctively thought that humans had designed an ambush, but Xu Lai was afraid that Davis would be affected and did not dare to come.

Fortunately, Elvy also knew the limits. As soon as the distress signal came on, she decisively took the angels away.

The demon captain was so scared that his soul almost flew away, and he quickly sent a message to Kerrigan and Davis to inform them not to come for rescue.

Kerrigan in the camp instinctively frowned and ordered the demon captain to come back and report immediately.

Davis, who also received the order, secretly hated it. He didn't expect his men to be scared and send a distress signal directly.

If he went back to report to his own troops, he wouldn't even dare to fight the angels.

If he sent a distress signal as soon as he was chased, then he, the newly appointed demon general, would probably be removed immediately.

Thinking that the angels had already left and might be on their way, Davis didn't dare to delay and quickly ordered his men to speed up.

But just as they were rushing to the transport team, they saw the large-scale transport team and sensed a strong sacred breath.

Before he could escape, Davis was horrified to find that the demon he had just transferred to serve as a guard began to emit a sacred breath. (End of this chapter)
