Chapter 345 - The Strange Red Fruit!
Chapter 345: The Strange Red Fruit!
At this moment, the situation in Bel Hermione’s territory was already very critical. After all, the attacks of the two lords were very fierce.
The coordination of the two opponents was also quite good. One was attacking from the air, while the other was putting pressure on the ground.
Bill Hermione also didn’t have any good countermeasures. She could only arrange for most of the silver dragons to deal with the fire dragons in the sky.
After all, if these fire dragons were not dealt with, the silver energy shield in the sky would not last long.
The golden behemoths below continued to attack the city walls. Hermione could only split up a few troops to deal with them.
Of course, relying on these few silver dragons would not be able to completely block the attacks of the golden behemoths below.
As a result, most of the defensive equipment in Belhermione’s territory was used here, barely enough to defend the entire territory.
If not for the light priest barracks blueprints that she had traded with Ren Qi previously, allowing Belhermione to have a large number of light priests, she probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long.
Ren Qi looked at the densely packed troops below and frowned.
Logically speaking, the attacking side would definitely have the advantage over the defending side.
After all, the defending side had the geographical advantage and could use the city walls of their territory.
Therefore, even if two lords with half-step saint rank troops attacked Belhermione’s territory, under normal circumstances, they would not let Belhermione fall so quickly.
One had to know that Belhermione’s strength was relatively strong.
......
And the reason why Belhermione needed to quickly call Ren Qi for help was due to the number of enemy soldiers!
The two lord soldiers attacking Belhermione’s territory were very many.
Each of them had around 700 to 800 soldiers!
And this was only the number of enemy soldiers attacking.
Ren Qi believed that the enemy definitely had some troops left in their territory!
The greatest advantage of these Lords from another plane was not their superior ranks, but their superior numbers.
After all, these lords had definitely been lords for a longer period of time than the new lords in the Black Fog. The number of troops they had accumulated would be a very high number.
Even though the number of soldiers would continue to decrease as they expanded, the number of soldiers they had would still be much higher than the new lords in the Black Fog.
Ren Qi and Xu Xinghe were quite lucky. The Lords that had landed in the black fog forest must have encountered some sort of dangerous incident. They had lost quite a number of soldiers, so the number of soldiers they had wasn’t too many.
Furthermore, they did not have only one black mass that had landed in the black fog forest. If more lords landed in the surroundings and formed an alliance, it would be quite troublesome for Ren Qi.
However, the most important thing now was to help Bel Hermione resolve the matter at hand.
With the addition of the Succubus Legion, Bel Hermione’s territory, which was originally in danger, instantly stabilized.
Elise, in particular, held the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand and charged into the Golden Behemoth Horde below.
The Dragon Abyss sword in his hand continuously slashed out. The surrounding tier 9 golden behemoths were unable to withstand a single blow and were all knocked to the ground.
Even a half-step saint-level golden behemoth could only withstand three or four blows from Elise and the Dragon Abyss sword before being directly killed.
Meanwhile, Hilli and the rest quickly appeared on the battlefield below. Their figures continuously appeared and directly killed the golden behemoths around them.
Compared to Illis’ease, Hilli and the rest had a harder time killing the surrounding golden behemoths.
Of course, this difficulty was only relative.
The surrounding golden behemoths were still being killed at an extremely fast speed. The place where Illis and the rest went down had already been cleared of all the surrounding golden behemoths.
“Oh? What’s the situation up ahead?”The two lords standing beside the siege equipment sensed the situation up ahead and frowned.
“It seems like someone has joined the defense up ahead. Does the other party still have room to resist?”One of the Lords looked ahead and frowned.
The other Lord shook his head. “That’s not right. It’s impossible for the other party to have room to resist. Based on the current situation, there should be reinforcements. It seems like there’s a teleportation facility in this territory.”
“Teleportation device? If that’s the case, I’m afraid it’ll be a little troublesome. If there’s an endless supply of reinforcements, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult to take down the enemy.”
Hearing the words of the lord beside him, the other lord frowned even more.
“I think now isn’t the time to consider whether we can take down the enemy’s territory. Instead, we should think about how to face the enemy’s counterattack. Don’t you think that your golden behemoth died a little too quickly?”
Hearing his teammate’s words, the lord beside him, who had a golden behemoth soldier, was stunned for a moment. Then, his expression suddenly changed.
Not to mention, he had not noticed that his golden behemoth in front of him had indeed died too quickly. It was as if it was being rapidly reduced by something.
This kind of speed of death was very abnormal!
Even if the enemy had a half-step saint rank soldier, it was impossible for their own soldier to be reduced so quickly.
Unless the other party had a large number of troops and was able to suppress his golden behemoth.
However, when he saw the number of new troops that the other party had just joined, it was clear that there were not many.
Could it be that the other party’s army’s strength far surpassed his golden behemoth?
That was impossible!
His golden behemoth was at least at the peak of Tier 9, and there were many half-step saint-tier troops.
If he wanted to destroy his golden behemoth quickly, how strong would the enemy’s army be?
With such a speed, they must be at least at the demigod rank, right?
But how could there be a demigod army here?
This was only a buffer zone formed by the Protoss to collect resources for them. Shouldn’t they be given as supplementary resources and simply repaired?
The appearance of a half-step saint-rank soldier was already completely out of his expectations. How could there be a demigod-rank soldier?
This was absolutely impossible!
How could this lord know that although Elise was not a demigod-rank, her saint-rank strength, coupled with the Dragon Abyss sword in her hand, could allow her to display combat strength comparable to a demigod.
“It’s that soldier! It seems to be a succubus. The other party killed your golden behemoth like killing a chicken,”the lord with the Fire Dragon Soldier said to his teammates beside him.
The Lord with the Golden Behemoth soldier set his gaze on Elise, who was in front of him. He also saw the effect of Elise killing his soldier.
It was clean and neat. It was really similar to killing a chicken!
The Lord with the Golden Behemoth Soldier’s expression instantly darkened. He would never have thought that he would encounter an existence that killed his soldier like killing a chicken.
“What is going on? How can there be such a powerful branch?”The Lord with the Golden Beamon Beast Branch looked at Elise in front of him with an ugly expression as he asked.
The Lord with the fire dragon beside him also frowned. Although it was not his branch that had been killed on a large scale, the two of them were one. The loss of the other’s branch was something that was difficult for him to accept, it was also quite difficult to accept.
“From the current situation, the individual combat ability of this troop is very strong. At the very least, a half-step-to saint rank troop will not be able to stop her. Should we retreat now?”The Lord with the fire dragon calmly analyzed the current situation.
From the current situation, the other party had an extremely powerful troop. It was not very rational to fight head-on with the other party.
“What kind of joke is this? Retreat at this time? We were clearly about to take this territory!”
“You should also know that we have expended a lot of resources to come here. We have to replenish them quickly. Otherwise, the next plan will not be able to be carried out.”The Lord with the Golden Behemoth Beast said with an ugly expression.
When the Lord with the Flaming Dragon heard this, his frown deepened.
If they were a little more rational, it would be extremely irrational to fight head-on with the other party. It would be better if they went back.
However, what his teammate said was right. It would be a huge loss if they retreated at this time.
“If we want to continue attacking, we have to get rid of this super powerful force. Otherwise, there’s no way to continue attacking,”the Lord with the Flaming Dragon said.
“There’s no other way. We can only use that thing now,”the Lord with the Golden Behemoth Beast said.
He was clear about the current situation, but it seemed like he had a way to deal with it.
“Isn’t it a bit of a waste to use that thing here?”The Lord with the Fire Dragon Beast said with a frown.
“We can’t care about that now. If we don’t take down this territory, we’ll have a hard time. Maybe we can only rely on other people’s support.”
“The amount of resources we bring back this time is related to our evaluation of the Protoss. We have to start the plan quickly,”said the Lord who had a golden behemoth.
Hearing his teammate’s words, the Lord who had a fire dragon could only nod his head.
“Then use it!”
As his voice fell, the Lord who had a golden behemoth took out a fruit.
This fruit had a strange red color, and it was very bright.
This bright color was very abnormal, and it gave people a very toxic feeling.
He summoned the five half-step saint-level golden behemoths around him, and the Lord with the golden behemoth directly divided the scarlet red fruit into five portions and threw it to the five half-step saint-level golden behemoths in front of him.
The five half-step saint-level golden behemoths looked at the fruit under their feet with a hint of hesitation in their eyes. Clearly, they knew that this fruit was not something good.
However, they immediately swallowed the fruit in front of them.
Soon, the golden behemoths that had swallowed the scarlet red fruit began to emit a fiery-red pattern all over their bodies.
As these fiery red patterns spread along the golden behemoths’bodies, their bodies began to expand as if they were inflated.
Then, the Golden Behemoths’auras became violent.
In the end, these half-step saint-level golden behemoths’auras all became saint-level, and they were at the peak of the Saint-level!
Then, without any hesitation, the Lord with the Golden Behemoths gave the order and quickly rushed towards Elise.
Although the strength of these five golden behemoths had risen to the peak of the saint-level, the Lord with the golden behemoths did not look too good. In fact, his expression was even uglier than before.
This was because he knew clearly in his heart that the fruit was a demonic fruit. It could bestow powerful strength to a soldier in a short period of time, but it would also cause the soldier to die immediately after the duration.
In other words, no matter what the final outcome was, his five half-step sage-level soldiers would all die.
This was also a great loss to him!
Hopefully, he could quickly finish off the other party!
On the battlefield, Elise also felt five tyrannical auras suddenly appear in front of him, and his brows could not help but raise slightly.
Following that, Elise saw the five golden behemoths that were rapidly charging towards him.
These five golden behemoths were completely different from the ones around them. Their bodies were covered in scarlet patterns, and their auras were extremely violent.
Most importantly, the auras on their bodies were all at the peak-stage Saint-level.
Illis frowned and directly held the Dragon Abyss Sword to meet them.
Although the opponents were five at the peak-stage saint-level, Illis, who held the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand, did not have the slightest fear.
“Weng!”
The Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand quickly slashed out, and a powerful sword qi directly slashed towards a golden behemoth at the peak-stage saint-level in front of him.
“Bang!”
That peak-stage saint-level golden behemoth let out a muffled sound, and its charging body instantly stopped for a moment. Then, a wound appeared on its body, and this wound slowly seeped out with fresh blood.
Was it only a light wound?
Looking at the other party’s situation, Elise’s brows furrowed slightly.
Even the Dragon Abyss sword could only break through a simple defense?
It seemed that the other party’s defense had also increased by quite a bit.
“Illis, don’t fight. These golden behemoths must have been strengthened by some special method. They have a duration. Try not to fight them head-on.”
Ren Qi, who was on top of the city wall, shouted at Illis. His gaze had been fixed on the two lords below, and he saw the scene of them feeding the fruits.
Hearing Ren Qi’s words, Elise’s eyes flickered slightly.
Just as his master had said, there was indeed no need to fight head-on with them. Since they had relied on some method to increase their strength, there was bound to be a time limit, just like her balanced power.
As long as he could drag this time out, the other party’s combat strength would quickly decline, and they might even enter a weakened state.
Elise did not hesitate at all, and directly continued to charge forward.
Behind him, the five golden behemoths that had advanced to the peak did not hesitate, and directly followed.
They had already lost their reason, and before they lost their reason, the last order they received was to kill Elise.
So now, they would not rest until Elise was dead!
