Chapter 554: Glacier Blockage
The broken meteorites fell, the flames were extinguished, and a hundred-foot ice wall stood on the battlefield between the demon army and Mu Hua. In the crystal ice layer like an iceberg cliff, some frozen monsters still kept fleeing in a panic.
To be honest, the monsters of the three ice and snow divisions can be called a legion, but after the battle line was opened, it was really difficult for Mu Hua to be called an army for the time being.
Especially after the academy ghost retreated, Mu Hua's side seemed to only see a group of restless hellhounds on the ground except for the dragons in the sky, and their number was completely incomparable to the army of the three ice and snow divisions.
At this time, among the demon army, a fierce frost demon holding an exquisite staff looked around in a daze.
The earlier huge waves were set off by the demon general who led the Migrant Division. This frost demon came from the Ice Division. Originally, it should have frozen the huge waves while taking advantage of the water source, and with the help of the iceberg, it could face the enemy from a high position, and better snipe the dragons and floating monsters in the sky.
But, before it casts a spell, how come this huge wave is frozen?
The huge wave raised from the direction of the demon army, after being frozen, blocks the two sides of the battlefield, hundreds of meters high. In front of the demons, there is at most a piece of iceberg with a slope, but Mu Hua is facing a cliff that is difficult to climb.
"Arrogant human!" Behind the demon army, several sturdy demons looked at the iceberg, and an Ahriman demon with the appearance of a scarab waved his giant claws and said angrily.
The cold breath blew away the anxiety of the battlefield. When the scattered demon army retreated, several figures appeared on the top of the frozen huge wave.
Mu Hua, Tina, Monday, Caroline, Selma, Thursday carried the monsters and floated above them, and Friday led the dragon group to swim in the sky behind the iceberg.
The demon army seemed to have no intention of bypassing Mu Hua and rushing to the rear. Mu Hua and his men gathered together, and there were still demons everywhere in front of them. A large number of cannon fodders in the front army died, but at this time the elite of the demon army appeared, and the battle became even more heavy.
"Human! The commander is kind and willing to give up the area south of the hot spring town, but we will regularly send some demons here to accept the death thrown by Doris. This is the condition of cooperation. Give me your answer!"
Mu Hua appeared, and a roaring demon in the demon army walked out of the defensive barrier, with a mane-like flame floating on his back, and shouted in the direction of Mu Hua.
Doris? Bluffing? The demon is looking for death?
As the roaring demon shouted, Doris drilled out of Mu Hua's body, turned into the form of a special demon, and stood beside Mu Hua.
"You are very well-known?" Glancing at the demon army, Mu Hua smiled at Doris.
"When I was planning to get rid of Penelope, I had contact with Repnos in the Death Canyon. These demons want to use projection to exempt death. Master, do you need to try the Sleeping Curse?" Doris looked at the shouting roaring demon with a sinister look and asked Mu Hua.
It goes without saying that the courtyard monsters knew Doris's situation through the lich Repnos, otherwise Doris's cursed spirit is more suitable for harming humans.
The gathering of death is indeed very strange and terrifying, but the death doom that each life only needs to experience once also reduces its threat to the courtyard monsters sharply.
If it were in the past, Mu Hua might still be complacent about pitting some projection monsters to death.
But when the level is improved, let alone what Mu Hua thinks, the demons even want to take the initiative to bear the doom of death, and get exemption from the doom of death in the future at the cost of one projection, and this kind of operation will inevitably make Doris unwilling and angry.
"Try it, I don't think it will work, those demon followers are really in the way." Mu Hua shook his head and said, Tina guarded in front of Mu Hua, Mu Hua opened a bird's eye view, his perspective was brought into the sky, as if searching for something farther away from the demons.
"Boom!" The thick staff hit the ice surface, and the ice splashed a small amount of flying debris. Murmuring and brewing, Doris cast a high-level curse in the direction of the demon army.
The sleeping spell, the curse that had plagued the city of Caines, was a long-standing existence. Although the scope of action was not as good as the joint spell cast by Penelope, Doris had the ability to cast this top-level curse independently.
The invisible curse ripples swept towards the demon army, and almost at the same time as it touched the defensive barrier, the demon army was swayed by golden energy fluctuations.
Sweeped by the energy fluctuations, the demons obviously exuded more intense excitement, and the sleeping spell also dissipated without a trace in the impact of the golden fluctuations.
Mu Hua, who was using the bird's-eye view, saw everything more clearly. Except for the roaring demon who had shouted earlier and was sleeping soundly in front of the demon army, other monsters were not affected by Doris's curse.
Mu Hua was not too surprised. The demon army even took out the forgotten guardian, which obviously had a certain understanding of them, and the prevention of large-scale curses was also a necessary part of the war.
Not only the demons, but Mu Hua also had a special person responsible for early warning and reconnaissance of dangerous spells. It was a monster on Thursday's back who was responsible for detecting abnormal energy fluctuations on the battlefield.
"Humans, you rejected the goodwill of the commander, and the Snow Ridge Ranch will become your eternal place of destruction!" After the curse was uttered, a cold voice came from the demons, and the demon army made another unusual move.
With better equipment and a more unified formation, the demon group, which looked more like a regular army than the earlier cannon fodder, was about to step out of the formation.
Ogres, trolls, snow demons, red-eyed demons, Barrow demons, Otara demons, waves of larger monsters wearing armor and holding shields formed a heavy infantry defense line at the front of the demon army.
Behind these powerful monsters, there are claw demons, golems, nagas, lamias, werewolves, sirens, and even a large number of succubi. These demons are small in size, some are good at flexible and fast attacks, and some are good at casting spells.
The water-colored sea scales uniformly cover their bodies. This defensive magic has a good resistance to fire elements. At the same time, various single-body barrier defenses are also deployed on them.
Behind these monsters, hundreds of fierce behemoths are stroking their claws. Goliath, who was originally half-kneeling on the ground, stood up. This is a troll with a height of more than 30 meters. They always have evil smiles on their faces that are difficult to distinguish emotions.
Tens of thousands of elite monsters are so moving that people's scalps are numb, and there are also some wandering spider demons scattered among them.
According to Mu Hua's estimation, these spider demons, golems, including the behemoth Goliath who is at the back of the formation, may also exist to prevent the petrified magic eye.
If their comrades were petrified, they would probably smash the statues while attacking. The demons would speculate the enemy with endless malice. They probably knew more about Medusa's bad habit of collecting statues than humans.
"Woo~Woo~" A low horn blew, and the demon army that was about to attack roared in the air.
Magic array, huge and complicated magic array spread in the sky, and many magic arrays that ordinary people would want to vomit were shrouded above Mu Hua and others. This kind of long-term magic array foreshadowed the brewing of high-level assault magic.
Raising his arms, Mu Hua and his group were few in number, but they did not defend against this terrifying magic, and they confidently dispersed the magic arrays that were looming.
"Ha~!" A laugh came from the monster.
"Ping~~!" The magic array shattered.
"Hu~!" The chaotic magic power set off a bone-scraping wind among the demons.
"Damn it! Bastard!" Curses and ridicules ceased. The curses that came out from the monsters again were like a mouthful of phlegm stuck in the throat. There were even some magicians who vomited three liters of blood and sprayed blood like a high-pressure valve.
Too much! This is too much! What the hell are you doing with these dispels? !
Yes, because of the experience in the early years, the high-level dispels are really useful, and the dispel levels of several people around Mu Hua were smashed high.
If the demons attacked randomly, it would be a bit troublesome, but in front of them, holding back this kind of time-consuming magic is basically pursuing the experience of spell failure.
"Crack! Crack! Crack~~" Endless lightning, many magic arrays were destroyed, but one of the strong magic arrays brewed Thunder Scorch Prison.
In the early years, the Thunder Scorch Prison that made Mu Hua flee in embarrassment was blocked by the infinite barrier of the monster on Thursday's back. At this time, it only made Mu Hua's face flash with a little curiosity and surprise.
Thunder Scorch Prison, although it was a hidden spell, he had just cast a dispel on the location of the magic array, and the explosion position of the core of the Thunder Prison also proved that there was no false information.
The extreme dispel failed to remove it. Could it be that there is one among these monsters who has cultivated condensation to the extreme?
"Master, the magic power nearby is very chaotic, and the elements are a bit abnormal. With such chaotic water and fire elements, the thunder magic should not be able to take shape so quickly." Doris looked at the demons from a distance, as if looking for something, and said beside Mu Hua.
"Hmm?" Mu Hua frowned, and while removing the bird's-eye view, a map with several coordinates was projected in front of him.
"There may be a gluttonous demon on the opposite side, but his location has not been found for the time being." When Doris said, Tina quickly reported several coordinates to Thursday and Friday.
"Gluttonous demon? Original sin?" Mu Hua's eyes flashed with excitement.
The original sin demon is equivalent to the ghosts and gods of humans. Not to mention what can be smelted after killing it, but thousands of philosophers' stones should not be able to escape.
But then the excitement in Mu Hua's eyes was replaced by anger. Damn it! Since it is the original sin demon, it is probably a projection. What can a projection melt?
Since it is a gluttonous demon, it is definitely not afraid of the petrified demon eye. No wonder these demons are so aggressive and come to him.
While Mu Hua was angry, the demon army had already stepped out of the defensive barrier, and the dragon group led by Thursday and Friday in the sky dispersed and did not confront the demon army in front of them, but flew in different directions.
"Stop them!" A roar came from the demon army. After a rain of arrows, large groups of winged demons rushed towards Thursday and Friday.
What are they doing?
Well, Mu Hua just used a bird's-eye view to search for a long time, just to find the sky strike casting point hidden by the demon army nearby.
Thursday has been hit by a lot of sky strikes recently. Now that the demon army has arrived, it would be a miracle if they don't hide ten or eight sky strike casting points around.
The power of Sky Strike is affected by the amount of magic power invested by the caster. Although it is not considered a high-level magic, it can be cast jointly. The power is difficult to assess based on the brewing time and the number of casters.
The so-called Sky Strike casting points often gather a lot of casters. Those guys hide in the distance, are insidious, and are sudden. It is not uncommon for them to turn the tide of the battle at any time.
Mu Hua wants to deal with those casting points, so he does not hesitate to send Thursday to Friday to hold the fort. (End of this chapter)
