Time soon came to dusk, and the setting sun began to fall into the horizon like blood. The western sky was stained with the last trace of blood, and gradually was swallowed by the darkness of the night and disappeared.

Outside Chang'an City is a miserable hell on earth. The air is filled with the smell of blood and smoke. The disgusting breath invades the respiratory tract, irritating people to tears.

The ground was covered with corpses of the Eagle Flag Army, mixed with some church knights who died in battle, extending densely to the end of the horizon, connecting with the black smoke in the sky, as if the garbage dump of hell, the originally fertile soil was shockingly reddish-brown. I don’t know if it was this or was stained reddish-brown by the blood gathered into the ocean.

The dark crows were flying on the battlefield, and the blood of the setting sun illuminated the desire for food in their eyes. They greedily ate these fresh corpses because they were too delicious. They accidentally ate too much food, and the weight of the food in their stomachs made them unable to fly again. They just lay next to the corpse and ate, ate, and died of drunkenness.

One-third of the 800,000 Eagle Flag Army died directly in the melee that lasted 10 hours last night. Most of the remaining ones were either injured or disabled, most of whom died because they did not receive timely treatment. A small number of them were still breathing and fell powerlessly in a pool of blood, driving away the crows that were eyeing them in vain.

The night is coming soon, but something else comes earlier than the night.

The Cross Church has tightened its front since noon and stationed on the other end of the horizon to avoid the heavy artillery attacks of Chang'an City. At this time, a shocking roar suddenly came from the distant end of the sky, causing the undead troops in Chang'an City to fight a cold war. I wonder what kind of creature was that roared like this.

"What is that?!" Twenty minutes after the roar, the Chang'an City Wall, the Immortal Military City Defense Commander rubbed his eyes hard, squinted his eyes and looked at the farthest part of his sight. Later, he took out the telescope from the trunk and looked over.

That's right, it's black fog!

The commander just felt that the distance was getting darker. At first he thought it was the darkness brought by the night. After all, it was winter now, and the sun set early. This point had already begun to be considered "night". However, after careful observation through the telescope, he found that it was not just night, but black fog!

The fog that was overwhelming was coming. Normally, the fog in nature should be pale white, but at this time the fog that was spreading from afar was as dark as dead.

The strange black fog attacked Chang'an City at high speed. From a distance, it looked like the stormy waves of the Black Sea, roaring and surging, as if the entire sky was collapsed and pressing down. Not long after, the black fog spread to the city wall, like the minions of a demon, wrapped the bodies of the Immortal soldiers. When drilling into every gap, the visibility was reduced to a terrible level. The only thing that could be seen clearly in the black fog was the setting sun that was looming at the end of the sky, but it disappeared quickly.

It can be seen that the soldiers were very panicked at this time. The overwhelming black fog brought a sense of oppression like a city-breaking force. After being shrouded in black fog, they could not see each other clearly. They seemed to have been thrown into the void turbulence, unable to distinguish between up, down, left, left, east, south, north, and stripped from the world.

Fortunately, this very terrifying black fog is not destructive, has no abnormal smell, is corrosive, and has no pathological reaction after inhalation, that is, it is not toxic. The only disadvantage is that it is blocking the line of sight, reducing everyone's visibility to less than half a meter, almost without seeing your five fingers.

The commander stabilized his mood and turned on the communicator and said in a deep voice: "Control the tower and turn on the searchlight!"

Countless high-power searchlights were turned on, and violent lights penetrated into the black fog. The strangest thing finally happened. These black fogs swallowed light like black holes. After looking directly, the searchlights that were enough to blindness shone into the black fog, they were like mud bulls entering the sea without lit anything. Some soldiers far away from the city walls didn't even notice that the searchlights were turned on.

The strange situation made all the soldiers hold their breath. The surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that they could hear their heartbeats. Everyone was staring at the black fog with a serious expression. Some people kept looking around, worried that any monster would suddenly appear from their side.

"Hiss..." The sudden sound shocked everyone's body and all of them were arranged in an attack posture, but the sound just continued to be made and there was no abnormality.

The "hiss" noise continues, and it is becoming more and more dense, like the friction between some object and the ground.

"Something is approaching!" The commander picked up the gun, pressed the communicator and said in a deep voice, "All units should pay attention to it. You may encounter enemy attacks, prepare for the battle! The center of the tower, open the near defense cannon and conduct full coverage and strafing on the defense area outside the city!"

The sound of mechanical transmission was heard soon, and more than 200 close-defense guns fired at the same time, although the light of the fire was still

The old one was swallowed up by black fog, but the endless roar gave the soldiers a lot of comfort.

Under the control of the operator, the near-defense gun swept through every corner of the defense area, and every inch of land was baptized by artillery fire.

The expected enemy attack did not come, but instead, there were constant screams of a wild beast as if it was injured, which somewhat made the soldiers excited. Although they didn't know what the specific situation was, at least the enemy who was suffering at this time was not himself.

The cover-strapping lasted for 5 minutes, and the commander stopped all close-defense artillery because there was no alarm on the city wall at all. This shows that the enemy did not want to use black fog to attack the city wall, and did not know the density of the enemy and the purpose. Such random suppression of the strapping can easily waste ammunition.

The strange sound of "hiss" continued, and it was provoking the soldiers' nerves all the time. But that night was very calm. No attacks occurred, and no soldiers died. Only three unlucky guys were too close to the city defense cannon, and their ears were trembling and bleeding. After asking the medical officer to deal with it, they could continue to come back to work.

The night was spent in peace, and at 4:57 a.m., the soldiers of the Immortal Army discovered that the light of the searchlight began to brighten, and could be vaguely visible in the haze, which was obviously a sign of the fading of the black fog.

At 6:13 in the morning, the black fog basically disappeared and the soldiers regained their light. However, when they saw the scene under the city, their breathing completely stagnated in the cold air, and everyone froze.

"How could this happen?" The commander looked at the city in dismay. At this time, a trumpet sounded in Chang'an City, indicating the arrival of the envoy of the royal capital.
