Seven hundred and forty-one bloody battle of Wailing Mountains
Chapter 741: Bloody Battle of the Whispering Mountain
"What?" After hearing the news, Lao Xie suddenly lost his former calmness. He rushed to the guy like an angry giant bear, reached out to grab him, and asked angrily: "What the hell is going on? How could Catherine be surrounded by the Burning Legion?"
"We don't know what's going on. We only know that the reinforcements from the Griffon Kingdom suddenly encountered the army of the Burning Legion on the road more than 1,000 miles away from Naga City. As a result, the opponent was crowded with powerful people and strong power, so they surrounded them on a hill. If it weren't for the ghost Bemon brought by Princess Catherine, they would have been defeated long ago."
"What's the situation now?" Lao Xie asked hurriedly.
"The situation is not good, because after the Burning Legion failed to encircle and annihilate, it has adjusted its subordinates and seems to have sent stronger people to deal with the ghost Bemon. Once that guy is entangled, let alone Princess Catherine, I am afraid that the 200,000-strong army will be wiped out!" The man explained hurriedly.
"Damn it!" Lao Xie cursed hatefully, then let him go, turned to Natasha and said, "I'll go and save people now, you guys are ready to pick me up!" After that, Lao Xie didn't give Natasha a chance to speak with the Elf King at all, so he rushed out of the hall and turned into a Suzaku and flew away.
Seeing his hot and fierce look, the Elf King and Natasha couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly. Natasha said helplessly: "Why is this child usually quite calm but becomes reckless at this time?"
"Katherine has a very unusual relationship with him. They both suffer from common misfortunes, so he naturally has to care more!" The elf king smiled and said, "I appreciate his spirit!"
"Your daughter has also married him, of course you hope he will do this!" Natasha smiled bitterly and said, "But he is now noble. If he always leads like this, something will happen sooner or later. We are all elders, so we should persuade him at critical moments!"
"Okay, OK!" The elf king smiled, "I know, don't worry about what I advise him. I will persuade him if I have the chance in the future. The most urgent thing now is how to respond to him!"
"Well!" Natasha nodded, then frowned and said, "The Burning Legion is too powerful. We should not attack too much now. That will break out in field battles. Even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses. I mean, just send a small elite force to bring them back. It is best not to get too entangled with the Burning Legion too much!"
"I think so too!" said the Elf King, then stood up and smiled, "You have just come back and have a lot of things to deal with. Let me go this time! I can only take my guards!"
"Okay!" Natasha nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you!"
As she said that, she suddenly took out the magical artifact Yuelun and handed it over, saying, "Let's use this for you first. This battle may be delayed until night. With it, you can be even more powerful!"
"Haha, okay, I'll use it first!" The Elf King did not refuse, reached out to take it, and then said goodbye to Natasha and left.
More than a thousand miles away from Naga City, there is a stone mountain that is not very high, about a few hundred meters high and several miles in a radius. There is no water source on the mountain, and there are stones everywhere. Therefore, there are no big trees on it, only some tenacious shrubs growing.
Because the mountain is bare and very desolate, when the wind blows, it will make a whimpering sound, as if some creatures are howling, so the locals gave it a gloomy name called Wailing Mountain.
Today, the wailing mountain that was so desolate that there were no people in the past hundreds of miles, suddenly an additional 200,000 troops were added. They were reinforcements sent by the Griffon Kingdom to Naga City.
Under the leadership of the eldest princess Catherine, they originally wanted to arrive at Naga City as soon as possible. However, when they passed by Wailing Mountain, they suddenly encountered a demon army that had emerged from somewhere.
Because the encounter was too sudden, both sides were a little confused at the beginning. But then, the battle-prone demon troops first reacted and launched an attack on the small group of troops exploring the way.
The other party was hundreds of horned demons. Under the leadership of an abyss demon, their combat effectiveness was quite good. The human vanguard was only a hundred-man team, so naturally they were not opponents. They were beaten to pieces and fled in panic. When the team of more than one hundred people ran back to the follow-up troops, there were only a dozen left.
The vanguard of the army was Carlos, the general Catherine trusted the most. As the son of the Sword Saint of Wind and the comrade of Lao Xie, this guy is a powerful general who has fought with the demons many times. Naturally, he would not be scared by just a few hundred demons. When he saw that the other party dared to chase his subordinates, he immediately lit up more than two thousand cavalry and took the lead in killing him.
After Carlos rushed like this, the demons on the opposite side could not support him, and they were chased by the human army for a while. Carlos didn't want to chase them too far, just let them breathe. But the sky didn't follow the wishes. Carlos had just chased him for a few miles, and he suddenly found that reinforcements were coming from behind, and it seemed that there were tens of thousands of demons. Although they were all low-level demons such as small demons, horn demons, etc., there were a huge number, and with dozens of leading advanced demons, they were not a team that could be underestimated.
Carlos knew at a glance that he could not fight hard, so he hurriedly stepped back and sent someone to inform Catherine that he had met tens of thousands of demons here.
After receiving the report, Catherine's first reaction was to immediately concentrate the troops, fearing that there would be a large army behind the opposite troops.
As a result, Catherine's caution saved the entire Griffon Army's life. She had just gathered the troops in a single shape when the latest news from Carlos came from the front. He had encountered more demon troops, at least hundreds of thousands of people. These guys seemed to have discovered that the human army was mobilizing wildly, intending to eat the human army.
If Catherine's order assembled a little later, the fragile human forces would have to face the impact of the Burning Legion with the most fragile formation. At that time, the entire army would be wiped out in the blink of an eye.
However, because of Catherine's caution, all this was avoided. When the vanguard of the Burning Legion defeated Carlos's blocking team, what greeted them was the army of humans who were waiting for it. The rain of arrows like locusts suddenly suppressed the impact of the Burning Legion. Then, Catherine personally took the ghost Be Mountbatten and thousands of champions to take advantage of the moment when the opponent was beaten, and relied on Patton's extremely powerful combat power to disperse the vanguard of the Burning Legion.
However, although Catherine won temporarily, she had no intention of being happy. While ordering to ask for help from Naga City, she moved all the troops to Wailing Mountain, intending to rely on the favorable terrain here to defend.
In fact, at this time, several guys advised Catherine not to continue to stand up and should escape back to the Griffin Kingdom quickly. However, Catherine did not listen to their nonsense. Instead, everyone beat dozens of military sticks, which stopped this fearful atmosphere. No one dared to say anything to withdraw, and focused all their attention on the upcoming battle.
The Burning Legion seemed extremely angry at the rudeness of Chu Zhan. They actually publicly executed thousands of demons who were unfavorable to combat at the foot of the Wailing Mountain. Then, led by several legendary demon lords, a large group of demons rushed towards the Wailing Mountain.
This time, the Burning Legion had a strong morale, not only because it killed people who were unfavorable to the battle, but also because of the leading role of the demon lord. In addition, there were many high-level demons that attacked this time, the number of Burning Knights and Abyss demons even reached 10,000, and the remaining medium and low-level demons were hundreds of thousands. The huge army of tree eyes even burned the earth into blood red. Standing on the Whispering Mountain and looking down, you can only see the boundless red demons. Such a powerful army gave them great confidence and encouragement.
If it were the former human troops, it would be impossible for 200,000 people to withstand such charges without city walls and a large number of city defense equipment. However, this time, the combat power shown by humans suddenly shocked all the demons.
First of all, when the demons rushed to the foot of the Wailing Mountain, the humans above threw down thousands of goblin mines at the dense group of demons. The spectacular scene of thousands of mines exploded together can be described as earth-shaking. The loud sound could deafening the ears. Countless small mushroom clouds rose, accompanied by countless broken limbs and broken arms, and flying flesh and blood. In just this moment, they directly killed and injured tens of thousands of demons in front, especially a large number of middle and high-level demons, and were also seriously injured under the dense explosion.
The fierce offensive of the Burning Legion was immediately paused. Then, Catherine did not give them a chance to breathe, and ordered their men to smash the prepared arrows and stones on the mountain to completely kill the demons that were not killed.
The demons behind saw this terrifying scene and were so scared that they would never dare to charge forward again. So many high-level demons were killed instantly. They were not going to deliver food when they went up? In fact, they were scared by Catherine. If these guys continued to rush, Catherine would really be reluctant to throw the goblin mine again.
After all, this kind of thing is too expensive. If it weren't for Lao Xie's path, she wouldn't have gotten so many landmines. Even if Lao Xie tried to allocate it to her, she would have only 100,000 pieces in her hand. This time she brought 30,000 pieces in one breath, and just threw out five thousand pieces, which was equivalent to one-sixth of the amount. In total, it was worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins, which was enough for her to feel distressed.
Of course, although the goblin mine accidentally killed many high-level demons, those legendary masters and more than a dozen demons of the holy realm level were nothing serious. When they saw that their most powerful subordinates died in battle, they were immediately angry and did not care that the team behind them would not keep up and rushed towards the Whispering Mountain.
Seeing this, Natasha immediately sneered, then waved her hand to command the ghost Beemount to attack the legendary masters. She and the old mage commanded a 2,000-person royal magic group to bombard the masters of the holy realm with large spells.
In order to support the Naga tribe, Katherine also invested this time. All the five Dharma Saints of the Griffon Kingdom arrived, and the magic group almost came out in full swing. Two sword saints also came, leaving only the perfect sword saint in charge. The Sword Saint of the Wind and the Heavy Armor Sword Saint were both here. With these seven sword saints and the support of the magic group, Katherine was really not afraid of more than a dozen masters of the Holy Land.
In addition, as the confidante that Lao Xie values most, Catherine naturally has the ability to defend herself. However, Lao Xie does not seem to be optimistic about Catherine's swordsmanship, thinking that her strength is too low, and the feather tribe is not very strong in physique, and it is easy to get injured if it is close combat. So Lao Xie did not give her a melee artifact, but instead gave her a magical bow. After all, half of Catherine's bloodline belongs to the feather tribe, and the feather tribe is recognized as an archer, so Catherine's archery is also very good. In the Griffin Kingdom, it is barely worse than the archery skills of the Qifeng Sword Saint, and can rank second.
The artifact bow that Lao Xie gave her has a very extraordinary origin. This bow, called Petrified Eyes, is said to be the weapon of an ancient goddess. It is different from other bows and arrows that pursue destructive power. If it is just about destructive power, it is not even as good as other sub-artifacts. However, it has a perverted special effect, that is, petrified rays.
Because there is an unknown eye in the middle of this bow. When the user injects magic power into it, it will emit a grayish-white light, and all creatures shot into it will produce a petrified effect. Therefore, this special ray is called petrified ray, and the bow is therefore named Petrochemical Pupil.
The power of the petrified eye is very terrifying. When the strength of both sides is similar, the petrified rays can petrify the opponent. Although Catherine's strength is low, the petrified rays she shoots can still affect the masters of the Holy Realm and even legendary masters within a few seconds.
Of course, in normal times, this impact may not be a big deal, but in this chaotic battlefield, any moment of negligence may lead to death.
For example, now, as soon as the elusive ghost behemoth appears, he suddenly kills a legendary master from behind. Its claws that completely ignore defense are simply the nemesis of the Demon Lord. In addition, its ability to stealth and sneak attacks is really speechless. Seeing such a terrifying opponent, all the Demon Lords became nervous at the same time. They immediately gave up their original plan and turned to join forces to fight against Patton.
Facing several cautious demon lords, even though Patton was very capable, he was a little overwhelmed. No time, as soon as he appeared, his claws were sent out, and before he could hand them out, he fled away with teleportation at the prompt of his companion. What greeted Patton was the siege of several demon lords around him. In this case, Patton made several attempts without success and turned against him.
But at this moment, Catherine suddenly took action. She hid quietly in the distance, quietly giving a petrified ray to a demon lord. A white light flashed, and the poor child immediately shone white light all over his body, and his whole body was paralyzed by a strange force.
Although this power is not very powerful, it can be removed in just a few seconds for him, Patton, who had been eyeing him on the side for a long time, did not give him this opportunity at all. Taking advantage of his whole body being paralyzed and unable to move, Patton's giant claws came to his body from behind.
The companions around him gave him a reminder as soon as Patton appeared, but the poor child, who was numb all over, knew clearly that he was being attacked by the ghost Bemon, could only do something urgent and had no choice but to do it.
The devil lord, who was four or five meters high, was usually wearing a few inches thick steel armor, and was blessed by countless magic runes. His defense was quite amazing. But even so, he could not stop Patton's claw. Under the gaze of the demon lords around, Patton just waved his hand and cut the paralyzed unlucky guy in half on the spot.
The two halves of the corpse of the Demon Lord fell to the ground weakly, which made the other lords sweat. None of them noticed what was going on. They didn't understand why their companions suddenly made such a big mistake. They had already warned him, why was this guy still so reckless?
Just when they were puzzled, Catherine took action again. The little girl was still too impatient and not calm enough. She actually took action again after just a sneak attack. This obviously underestimated the group of demon lords.
Although Catherine succeeded again in this sneak attack, her own position was also exposed, and she happened to be seen by a demon lord. He saw a white light shot out from the little girl in the distance, hitting her companion, and then Patton appeared and killed the man in seconds.
As an old fox who has been through the battlefield for a long time, he naturally could not see the trick. As soon as he saw this, he immediately shouted: "Damn it, it's the deceased girl!" As he said that, he pointed to Catherine who was hiding a thousand meters away.
The demon lords then immediately looked at Catherine. Although Catherine was hiding in the crowd, her special appearance and temperament still betrayed her deeply, making them see Catherine's extraordinaryness at a glance.
The leading demon lord immediately furiously said, "You entangle this damn ghost Bemon, I'll kill that bitch!" After that, he abandoned Patton and rushed towards Catherine in the distance.
When Barton saw this, he was shocked. He still clearly remembered that his mission was to protect Catherine, so he didn't care about the rest of the people and flew towards Catherine with the intention of saving Catherine.
When Catherine saw that she was exposed, she simply stopped hiding and walked out generously, and led her bow and shot her with an arrow at the flying demon lord.
Catherine's idea was good, so she petrified the guy and then let Patton behind him tear him apart. But she underestimated the demon lord too much. None of these old guys who had lived for thousands of years were fuel-efficient lamps. After seeing the power of Catherine's bow, he certainly would not easily get himself caught in an arrow. So when he saw Catherine's bow, he immediately dived down and grabbed a human soldier from the ground. After Catherine's white light shot, he blocked the soldier.
As a result, the white light shot into the human soldier, turning the guy into a stone in an instant. But the demon lord was unscathed. He was only startled by the power of the white light. At the same time, he realized that the bow and arrow in Catherine's hand seemed to be extraordinary. If a guy who was only level 5 could have an impact on the legendary master. It can be seen how perverted this thing is, I am afraid it may be a magical tool!
When the guy thought of the artifact, his eyes suddenly shone and his figure became three points faster. In the blink of an eye, he almost came to Catherine, and both sides were less than a hundred meters away. For the legendary master, this distance was simply reached. It was too late for Catherine to draw the bow and shoot again.
Fortunately, Catherine is not alone, and she has a bodyguard around her, that is, the old mage. The old mage is very strong, and with twelve golden monster assistants, her combat power is no worse than that of ordinary legendary masters.
In the battle just now, he relied on the help of the 12 Golden Monster Lord and the Magic Group to quickly kill several Holy Land masters of the Demon Clan with lightning speed. The remaining people were also injured and eventually had to escape in a panic.
After dealing with those guys, the old mage was not worried about Catherine's side, so he rushed over and happened to encounter Catherine's in danger. The old mage naturally did not dare to neglect it, and immediately activated all his strength to gather the power of the twelve golden monster masters, and shot a large amount of lightning at the guy. He immediately caught the other party off guard.
However, after all, he is a serious legendary master, and his strength is relatively strong, much more powerful than the old mage. Therefore, although he was attacked a little, he was not injured. Instead, he was angry by the old mage. This guy was about to grab the magic weapon, but was suddenly disturbed by someone. Naturally, he was extremely angry. Without saying a word, he threw out a large area of strong fire clouds and burned towards the old mage.
The old master is a person who knows things. He can tell at a glance that he is really good at it. The fire magic contained in the fire cloud is more than ten times that of his own. If he is shrouded by the fire cloud, he is afraid he can't even find his ashes.
Although the old mage loves Catherine very much, compared with his own life, he obviously loves the latter more. Under the threat of Huo Yun, the old mage finally had no choice but to retreat and temporarily avoid the opponent's offensive. As a result, he retreated, exposing Catherine directly to the opponent.
Seeing this, the demon lord was overjoyed and flashed to Catherine. While reaching out to grab Catherine's weapon, he laughed wildly, "Haha, bring me your bow!"
