Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1157: A Fierce Battle at the Gates

The Eye of Original Sin, like a self-disciplined weapon, did not care whether it was the Blade Demon or the cannonball or the stone that descended from the sky. Under Belmord's will, they faithfully carried out their air defense work. As a result, the Eyes of Original Sin once again spat out tiny, dense black flames, creating a three-dimensional network in the air. The Blade Devil Cultivator's body and fire streams brushed past him, and he didn't even bother to scream before disintegrating in midair.

However, the interception area of the Eye of Original Sin was still unable to envelop the entire city wall. Only a portion of the demons were intercepted and killed by the fire, and most of them landed on the human soldiers on the city wall.

Broy raised his head and stared at a Saber Demon descending from the sky. "Infantry, pull out your saber!" He shouted.

The infantry soldiers standing behind the musketeers or beside the gunners only reached their orders and drew their sabers out of their sheaths. Everyone held their breath as they looked at the constantly enlarging figure above them. Their breathing was rapid, and their nerves were tightened due to nervousness.

Before the demon landed on the city wall, Broyle swung his warhammer and smashed it into his chest. At the same time as a ball of flames exploded from the Hammer of Extinction, the Saber Demon was sent flying. He was in midair, but the corpse twisted into a strange posture and fell towards the city. After smashing the Saber Demon away, Bloy squeezed out a word from his chest, "Kill!"

"Kill!" The infantry shouted loudly as they faced the Saber Demon that had landed on the city wall, desperately pushing the enemy under the wall.

At this moment, war broke out in Mountain City. On the ground, the Ghanaians, who were like worms, joined the battle, and the flames burned even more intensely.

Outsider catapults repeatedly tossed Blade Demon soldiers into the air. In fact, not all soldiers were able to land on the wall. Most of the warriors fell to the ground halfway, and some of them were smashed by giant boulders or cannonballs on the city walls. In the end, there were very few Saber Demon soldiers who could land on the wall, so the human warriors on the wall were still able to defend it, and there wasn't much chaos.

All of this was seen by the Saber Demon Commander. He turned around and shouted in an alien language. The Saber Demon, who was in charge of controlling these beasts, nodded in understanding. On top of the beast, a Saber Demon walked behind the beast. They squatted down and used their sharp bone blades to stab into the beast's body. The beast was in pain and roared as it ran. These beasts passed by the commander's side and threw themselves into the battlefield ahead.

More than ten beasts ran together, and the entire ground shook. At this time, Keller had just finished his charge and brought down a Gatu squad when he saw a giant beast stepping out of the firepower zone. As a general of the Bucks, Keller was very familiar with this strategy of the outsiders. While the beasts were running wildly, they would drag the siege chariots behind them and crash into the enemy city. If they didn't stop them in time, the city gates and the defensive walls would be violently impacted, and then the alien ascending buses would throw the ladder and the soldiers onto the wall.

"Be careful of those beasts!" Keller shouted, "Stop them! Stop them!"

He quickly pulled up a cavalry squad and ran straight towards the beasts in front of him. There, a beast was hit by a cannonball and fell to the ground. As expected, behind the fallen beast, the alien Dengchariot and the hundreds of Saber Demon soldiers inside screamed and fell into the flames. However, at this time, three beasts had already rushed through the firepower area, and most of them were behind them. Keller locked onto a beast and shouted, "Follow me!" He took a turn on the battlefield with his cavalry squad and stabbed at the incoming beasts from the left.

The beast's eyes continued to expand, and the knight behind Keller began to pour Origin Energy into the beast, throwing a spear at it. The beast was shot twice and three times in a row, but it still refused to stop. It continued to gallop forward with more than a dozen spears stuck in it. Kai retracted his horse and passed under the belly of the beast. He raised his saber and clenched it tightly with both of his hands. With his Origin Energy poured into it, the saber easily cut through the thick skin beneath the beast's abdomen. When Keller came out from the other end, the beast was ripped open, and its organs and intestines kept falling to the ground. The giant beast wailed. Finally, it could not run. Its limbs went limp and it fell to the ground, causing the Dengcheng carriage behind it to fall to the ground. All the Saber Demon soldiers inside rolled out.

Keller exhaled turbid air from his mouth. He didn't even have time to rest, so he turned around and ran to the other end.

At this moment, Alan was also facing a giant beast that was running wildly. He was much more straightforward than Keller, who swept across and pulled out a ten-meter long and wide line of fire. With a single move, the four hooves of the beast in front of him were cut off. Suddenly losing all four limbs, the beast fell forward, its body heavily falling to the ground, and it continued to slide. Allen ignored him and pulled his horse over to the other side, heading straight for the other beasts.

Unfortunately, even though Alan and Keller were intercepting the warriors, there were still beasts that rushed into the battle zone on the ground. These berserk beasts didn't care if they were allies or enemies, they just charged forward blindly. Even the strongest of the Gatu soldiers, who had no time to dodge, would definitely turn into meat pancakes after stepping on the beasts. The Jianas, who were originally attacking the Bucks' defensive line, immediately descended to the ground sinisterly, allowing the Bucks' soldiers to face the red-eyed beast.

An infantry of the Bucks raised his head. The shadow of a giant beast enveloped his entire body as he faced a beast that was rolling over like a small mountain. The soldier finally broke the string of reason and turned around to run with a scream. Unexpectedly, he had just taken two steps when a giant hoof descended. By the time the hooves stepped out, the soldier had long since disappeared, and there was only a mess of flesh and blood on the ground, as well as completely twisted armor.

Broyle swung his warhammer and smashed away a few Saber Demons. He hurriedly took time to look at the city. He saw a beast charging straight towards the city gate. He hurriedly shouted at the back of the city, "Block the city gate for me!"

Behind the city gate was the militia of Mountain City, and the youth who had spoken to Hubble was also inside. He nervously licked his lips, and then, under the orders of the officer, let out a tender cry, holding the wooden pillars against the door with the adults, ready to withstand the attack.

Bloy himself leapt onto the wall, and his Qi surged out like a flood. The Hammer of Forbidden Extinction lit up from the inside out. Earth-yellow flames flowed through every corner of the hammer's body, and the hands of the Highlanders seemed to be holding a yellow light. He roared as he leapt out of the city wall and smashed a hammer into the giant beast's head. The Hammer of Forbidden Annihilation struck down in the air, and the Saber Demon on the War Beast Throne looked up, as if it had been struck by an invisible giant hammer. Starting with his head, his body twisted and distorted, and then his entire body exploded.

When the Hammer of Forbidden Annihilation smashed into the beast's head, a yellow ripple immediately spread out. Wherever the ripples passed, the beast's body trembled violently, and thousands of blood sprayed out from beneath its thick skin. The beast let out a mournful cry, its head clearly sunk into the ground. Before Big Head could fall to the ground, his eyes had already lost their brilliance.

Bloy landed on the ground after killing the beast with a hammer. Only then did the beast fall to the ground, and its enormous body slid towards the city gate under the influence of its inertia. Broyle roared and raised his warhammer with both hands. He used the hammer to block the giant beast, but it was pushed back continuously. His feet were almost nailed to the ground, and he ploughed out two ravines. When the beast stopped, Bloy was less than half a meter away from the city gate!

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a soldier's exclamation came from the wall, followed by two deafening collisions. Bloy looked in the direction of the sound. It turned out that two beasts had collided with the left and right sides of the city wall. The wall that was hit collapsed and the beast's head stuck into the thick wall. It could be seen how terrifying the collision was. As for the Dengcheng carriage that was pulled to the city gate by the beasts, it was pushed to the wall by the Saber Demon soldiers. Following that, the ladder and the outsider soldiers were thrown onto the city wall. More Saber Demons climbed onto the wall, and intense landing battles began on the city wall.

As the war progressed to this point, the human side began to show signs of weakness. The Bucks were forced to retreat in order to strengthen their defenses against foreign attacks. Alan and Keller met behind the line of defense. Keller shook his head and said, "We won't be able to last long. Perhaps we'll have to consider retreating."

Allen narrowed his eyes in the direction of the enemy. "If we kill the commander, we should be easier."

Keller was shocked and shook his head, "Lord Allen, this is a war at the level of ten thousand men. It's not easy for you to kill the enemy's Central Army. This is insane."

"I have to go crazy, because I'm not used to sitting around waiting to die. Even if I want to retreat, I have to let those guys know that if they want to chase us, they have to be prepared to be killed." Alan switched to another sturdy warhorse and said to Keller, "I'll leave this side to you. Also, my men, General, please hold on for a while longer."

Then, he rode off on horseback.

Keller shook his head, but there was already respect in his eyes. He took a deep breath and raised his saber to shout, "Hold on, let these monsters see how powerful the imperial soldiers are!"

When a new tug-of-war broke out in the next part of the city, Alan went around the main battlefield alone, heading in the direction of the enemy general from the flank. Very quickly, he was intercepted. The flame marks on Alan's body lit up, and a faint flame surged within a hundred meters of his space. Sparks also floated down on the battlefield. Allen raised Red King and pointed to a group of enemies who had come to intercept him, "Sargeras!"

Origin Energy surged wildly.

A ball of flame appeared in front of the enemy soldier, and then the flame spread out, extending out a large hand from the flame. This arm covered in scorching rock casually swept a dozen or so enemy soldiers away like flies, and then the Flame Fiend Sargeras emerged from the flames. Sargeras waved his hands and continuously lifted the enemy soldiers into the air. Several times later, he raised his fist and smashed them down, sending out a shockwave that shook dozens of other soldiers into the air.

Sargeras straightened his body, flames flickering in his demonic pupils as the Flame Devil inhaled. On the battlefield, a visible airflow appeared. This airflow swept towards the Flame Devil's mouth. When Sargeras opened his mouth, the flames in his mouth lit up like a pouring furnace.

In the next moment, a pillar of fire burst out from the Flame Devil's mouth. The pillar of fire swept across the battlefield, causing a fierce explosion. When the pillar of fire disappeared, the Flame Devil cleared a passageway, a flame corridor, for Alan in the enemy formation!josei
