The city wall of the fortress city is a long line of defense, and the city entrance, which is particularly thick in the middle, can be regarded as a frontline headquarters during wartime.
At this time, the leaders of many forces in the city gathered here. The combat staff of the garrison seemed to be dissatisfied with the greetings between Otis and Tennyson, but neither of them seemed to pay much attention to that person.
"Hey, Otis, your friend is quite arrogant?" Seeing that Mu Hua refused Otis's recommendation, Tennyson said with a smile that since Otis emphasized that Mu Hua was a friend, frankly Nissen also put away his hostility towards Mu Hua.
"He doesn't expect you to make a living. This is not your Garaposso." Otis smiled, not paying any attention to Mu Hua's actions.
And Tamara flew onto Mu Hua's shoulders. When he saw Tamara's closeness to Mu Hua, Tennyson finally showed some concern in his eyes when he looked at Mu Hua, and looked towards Mu Hua from a distance. Hua nodded.
At this time, Nick and others also joined in the pleasantries between Otis and Tennyson. Unlike Otis, the others' exchanges with Tennyson were more formulaic and more respectful.
Although most of the kingdoms in the courtyard will pay tribute to the human world country where the courtyard entrance is located, it is more like a cooperative care. The courtyard kingdom exports materials to the human world, and the human world countries will also do the same to a certain extent. Guide the citizens to settle in the Courtyard Kingdom.
Now that Tennyson has established a country, his diplomatic status is no different from that of emperors, presidents and other leaders of human world countries.
Those who represent the official power of the government must still treat him with the same respect as when facing national leaders.
What's more, among the people Tennyson brought, there were at least a thousand warriors with the ability to fly independently.
Each of these people can be said to be walking tactical missile launchers, and they are super energy-saving, super mobile, and can use their hands to rub ammunition anytime and anywhere.
"Haha, Mu, you are so smart. Although I don't know other rumors about that big rat, he is really stingy." Not to mention the pleasantries over there at Otis, Mu Hua didn't Moving closer to Tennyson, a middle-aged man next to Mu Hua smiled.
Some hippies dress in a hippie style. The speaker's name is El, and he looks middle-aged. However, due to his physical condition, it is difficult to judge his actual age from his appearance.
This person is the 'eye' of Otis and the leader of the shooting team. His abilities and training direction are very special. He is a technical talent. Perhaps it is because he does not need to look at Mu Hua. His expression is much more relaxed than Ajer's when getting along with Mu Hua.
Is Tennyson stingy? Well, it's not that Mu Hua can't understand this. He is a sign of rat hoarding, so people need to worry more when he becomes generous.
"What are these people doing here? I'm afraid the battle line drawn by the devil will not be short. The combat command will be handed over to the Star Patrol Fleet?"
I didn't pay too much attention to Tennyson's question. His Majesty the King talked to him. There was no essential connection. Mu Hua looked at the satellite image on his personal terminal with some worry.
Tens of kilometers away from the fortress city, countless hyoid demons are approaching towards the city. The sea tide, the bone armor on the head of the hyoid demons, together with the sea tide of different colors.
Tens of thousands? It's not one or two thousand, it's a count in units of ten thousand.
Judging from the scenes in the satellite images, the number of these alien-looking demons is no less than 100,000, and there are also a large number of low-level monsters mixed in among them.
This is only the first batch of monsters that are closest to the fortress city. It is not surprising at all to say that they can draw a front covering the city walls.
Facing a war of this scale for the first time, Mu Hua was still a little nervous and uneasy. He was not sure how the humans would direct and dispatch, and he was also a little worried about the safety of Tebitha and the others.
Those hyoid demons are not goblins. They are strong and agile, move like ghosts, and have sharp claws and cone tails as strong as knives and guns. They have very strong assault capabilities. They are even more difficult to deal with when they gather together. They cannot go their own way. , a random fight, right?
“No, the general star patrol fleet will only command their own personnel, and the garrison group is responsible for city defense.”
“The adventurer this time should be the big rat. Command and dispatch, after all, he is also the commander of the brigade.”
"There are three brigades coming this time. Since he is here, he must have gotten some benefits from the empire, and he wants to do more," El explained.
“There are three more brigades?” Mu Hua looked around.
"Well, the other two teams are already preparing for war on the east and west sides." The fortress city's defenses are twenty kilometers long, and it is obviously impossible for the demonic wave to only come towards the area where Mu Hua and the others are. .
But even if El explained, Mu Hua still didn't know how they were going to direct and arrange it. At this time, a wave of energy radiation passed by, and Mu Hua looked into the distance in surprise.
"Here it comes, electromagnetic pulse, it's time for me to work." As he spoke, El trotted towards Otis.
Standing on the city wall of more than 20 meters, Mu Hua saw that some engineering vehicles digging trenches and bunkers outside the city suddenly stalled, and some drivers quickly fled from the vehicles. Those heavy engineering vehicles seemed to have become messy bunkers outside the city.
The satellite image on the terminal disappeared, and Mu Hua raised his head to watch. The fleet of ships that had been stationary above the city had already been ignited, and the blue energy halo spread like particles around the ships.
Mu Hua knew in his heart that all the equipment containing electronic components had failed. If nothing unexpected happened, all the reconnaissance satellites placed in this courtyard would have been destroyed.
Although the technology in this world is mainly based on magic, the cheapness of electronic products still prevents humans from giving up completely. However, when it comes to war, whether it is between humans, demons or humans, cheap electronic products It's also easy to destroy. As for reconnaissance satellites? There is no need for long-distance magic sniping, there are many winged demons among the demons.
The sky plays a chapter of music.
Hell is so close!
The war song has no words.
The human lyrics that incite warriors to die and eulogize death with different emotions have been ridiculed by demons and even orcs.
It was the bullying of the powerful and the stupidity of the weak. Human beings once became the laughing stock of monsters.
Hell is So Close, a human war song spread from ancient times. It has no lyrics and the passionate music incites people's hearts. It praises every warrior who fights for himself.
The sound of hell nearby represents the arrival of the war between humans and demons.
At this time, El, who ran to Otis, held an expensive magic crystal in each hand. He raised his head and closed his eyes. With the magic spreading around him, a huge screen was projected on the screen. Spread out in mid-air.
Magic Eye - a bird's eye view.
El's magic eye became a substitute for the reconnaissance satellite. The picture looking down from high altitude seemed to be searching, zooming in, and in a moment, a castle rising from the ground was found on the vast land.
It seemed like a living Castlevania, and like a growing magic tower. The height of tens of meters seemed to be still rising. On a platform at the top of the castle, an Arachne with a chuckle on his lips raised his head. , as if looking into the eyes of everyone observing the screen.
The figure of this Arachne is much smaller than expected. The upper body is about 1.5 meters, the limbs and feet are not fully erect, and the overall height is less than 5 meters.
The lower body of the spider has eight slender and powerful limbs with sharp claws at the end. The lower body is gray-black with blue stripes scattered on the body surface, which looks very strange.
The skin on the upper body is pale, and the skin seems to be made of countless tiny silk threads, with a hint of spider web texture.
On the humanoid face, in addition to the two big eyes, there are also two pairs of compound eyes on the forehead. Arakone's upper body is only humanoid, and it is not as beautiful as imagined.
When her face showed a human expression, the bird's-eye view projection screen quickly turned away, but El, who used the magic eye, did not dare to look at her. At the same time, he was also afraid that Arachne's sight in the screen would affect the viewing. person.
Devils, especially some high-ranking demons, their influence on living creatures is not only due to their strength and spellcasting, they themselves are a kind of strange existence, and their existence itself can make unprepared people fall into crazy.
At this time, the chapter "Hell So Close" resounded throughout the city, and in the beating of the notes, people seemed to hear a female voice murmuring.
“The lord has agreed to your negotiation, come on, come to us.”
“Of course, please accept the gift given to mankind first.”
The devil's murmur was not in human language and was vague, but people understood its meaning.
The demons have established a Castlevania-like magic base in the distance, where they are waiting for talks with humans. But first, humans need to extinguish the incoming demonic tide and reach them.
The demons in this courtyard also look very bad. This kind of war is not simply willful, because not only is the fortress city filled with extreme emotions at this time, but the attacking demons are probably also exuding madness. Emotional energy.
Different from the focus of others, Mu Hua vaguely discovered that the Castlevania-like mage position built by Arachne just now was more like an altar for collecting emotional energy.
The demons here are not simply demonstrating to humans. I am afraid that their goal from beginning to end is to collect emotional energy.
This is a feast for them, regardless of human life or death, even if a large number of monsters die, even if the monsters are defeated, it is still a feast for them.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
The airship passed by at low altitude, and the sounds of countless heavy objects falling to the ground gathered together. The torrent of falling steel made the ground of the fortress city tremble. of trembling.
Mechas, and the mecha warriors that surround them.
Land combat reinforced armor.
Countless mecha warriors were dropped by small airships, and they took the lead in building the human side's initial defense line outside the city. (End of this chapter)
