The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

As the saying goes, when you are poor, you should use tactics to infiltrate, and when you are rich, you should use firepower

Xu Lai didn’t know whether he was rich or not, but he could always loot a lot from every city he destroyed.

In a sense, the devil is working for Xu Lai.

When they attack a human city, the first thing they will do is to burn, kill, and loot.

A portion of the huge amount of resources plundered will be spent on building cities, but they don't have enough time to spend most of it.

The bulk of their money would be spent on completely transforming the terrain into hell terrain and converting human cities into hell cities.

Then they can spend a lot of resources to build hell buildings in the hell city and recruit hell soldiers.

Only then can a large number of birth pools and lava baths be built outside the city and provide basic food like human farmers.

Xu Lai hurried, so the large amount of resources that the demons of hell had just snatched from the human nobles were basically still piled up in various warehouses.

It is difficult for demons to convert these money and resources, but Xu Lai can transfer them directly to Qingfeng City through the warehouse ring.

That is to say, the demons hunted humans too cruelly, resulting in nine out of ten houses in the entire Western Empire being deserted, and only one in a hundred people remaining.

Otherwise, Xu Lai has the ability to digest these supplies nearby.

Countless resources have gathered in Qingfeng City. Coupled with Xu Lai’s policy of encouraging commerce, it is also the capital of the Eagle Kingdom.

Now, everyone in the world who has some access to information knows that the Eagle Kingdom is probably the safest place in the world.

There is a statue of the god of war there, and it is a city blessed by the god of war.

Nobles and merchants flocked to the cities of the Eagle Kingdom, among which Qingfeng City undoubtedly had the largest number of people.

Their arrival also brought a large number of craftsmen, various artisans such as blacksmiths and carpenters, as well as scholars, priests, mages and other talented people.

Whenever Xu Lai had needs, Su Ya could always satisfy him.

The catapults built during the day were not enough, so magic lamps were lit throughout the city, and the bishops were asked to release large-scale light spells to illuminate the entire city.

Therefore, the demons could only watch in despair as the number of catapults on the opposite side increased.

The fire demon towers, turrets, arrow towers and the like that were spared during the day were cleared out one by one at night.

Not only the city walls and arrow towers, but even the demon army gathered at the city gate could not escape the fate of being covered by fire.

Although due to the long distance and dark sky, the catapult's hit rate was not ideal.

But there were too many catapults. By dawn, there were nearly 200 of them.

Moreover, among these more than 200 catapults, none of them are low-level ones with a launching distance of less than one kilometer.

In addition to the large number of catapults, there are also a large number of demon troops, and most of them are concentrated together.

Being hit by so many catapults all night long and being harassed by the bone dragon troops, the demons suffered heavy losses.

But it's not over yet.

The demons thought that after holding out until daytime, without the city walls and arrow towers, humans would attack anyway.

But unexpectedly, Xu Lai still had no plans to launch a general attack.

Moreover, because it was already bright outside, the catapult's hit rate increased significantly.

Before, the purpose was to destroy the city wall, so solid stone bullets would have the highest damage, but now Xu Lai’s goal is to kill those demons from a super long distance.

Therefore, after his hit rate improved during the day, Xu Lai decisively took out all his treasured magic ammunition.

In fact, even incendiary bombs can cause considerable damage to demons. After all, not all demons are immune to fire damage.

Others such as ground spike bombs, ice cone bombs, etc. are advanced ammunition that can kill on a large scale.

Of course, this kind of advanced ammunition is not cheap, and even Xu Lai cannot afford it.

Waiting until daytime to use it is a compromise with reality.

If he were given another six months, he would be able to use this advanced magic ammunition to flatten an entire city.

The pleasure of firepower coverage can probably only be understood by those who have used this tactic.

Anyway, as the ones being bombed, the demons were so angry that their whole bodies ached.

If Patton had not closed the gate of the abyss early, the demons would have already deserted by now.

Unless it is recruiting troops, morale influence will be strictly followed.

A normal person, even if the battle is going in his favor and he is picking up people, would probably take the opportunity to escape.

Just because of the noble lords, they never pay the soldiers who are conscripted to fight in wars.

Therefore, they usually need high-level leadership skills, otherwise they cannot even maintain the morale of the troops.

The devil has no way out. Although he cannot escape, he can still collapse.

Seeing that humans seemed to have no intention of launching a general attack, Patton finally couldn't help himself.

Seeing the demon's movements, Xu Lai excitedly gave orders to the Qingfeng Legion and the Cavalry Legion.

If the demons don't come out, his cavalry won't be able to take advantage.

If we fight a street battle with the devil, not only is it unknown how long it will last, but the key is that the casualties will also increase a lot.

There are buildings and houses everywhere, making it easy to divide the infantry into countless separate individuals and teams.

He can neither get long-range assistance from the shooter nor treatment from the priest.

Of course, Xu Lai could also choose to directly flatten the building, but that would take too long.

Moreover, the city obtained in that way has no recycling value at all.

Last night, the Qingfeng Legion and the Cavalry Legion, except for the crossbow troops, all got a full night of rest.

At this moment, they were all full of energy, full of strength, and in high spirits, just waiting to have a hearty fight with the devil.

However, they didn't expect that before they were ready, they saw the demons retreating like a tide.

It turned out that the Flame Demon Barton, who could no longer bear it, did not choose to leave the city to fight Xu Lai, but directly abandoned the city gates, city walls, and even the moat, and retreated directly to the inner city.

Xu Lai was so angry that he laughed, but there was nothing he could do.

If he continued to smash the weapons, he would not be able to achieve any results except for destroying vacant lots and houses, so he could only wave his hands and give up.

This time, the soldiers who arrived at the camp first were still the first to charge.

The only difference from before is that the Vanguard Battalion, which was temporarily incorporated into the Qingfeng Legion, now has the blessing of Reina's special defense.

The soldiers of the Vanguard Camp who had no defensive specialties were able to defeat the 8th-level demon with the blessing of a high-level demon general.

At this time, with the added blessing of a defensive specialty, coupled with god-level offensive skills, each of them is like a little superman.

Before launching the violent attack, Xu Lai released a magical fire-controlling technique to everyone, and at the same time raised the Sword of the Prophet and released the power of ultimate prayer.

With all kinds of blessings and halos, the soldiers who reached the camp first, carrying large wooden planks, rushed across the lava river first.

The arrow tower and the city wall had all collapsed, and the drawbridge at the city gate was unguarded, but Xu Lai still couldn't put all his infantry forces into it at once.

One reason was to fear that they would fall into the devil's trap and that there would be ambushes and other devils that would jump out to cause trouble. The other reason was to let the strongest ones go to the camp first and test the waters of street fighting.

The entire Vanguard Battalion might not be as high-ranking as the top infantry of the Qingfeng Legion.

But all of them recruited soldiers. Their advantage was that everyone was a professional and almost everyone mastered several skills.

No matter what ambushes the demons had, by the time the vanguards of the vanguard camp crossed the lava river, the outer city had been completely taken by Xu Lai.

Next, there will be more intense and bloody street fighting.

The two siege towers finally started up slowly.

Xu Lai and Giselle led thousands of phantom archers and each climbed a siege tower.

The city walls were destroyed by Xu Lai, and our archers had no place to stand.

The only two siege towers will naturally be given to the Phantom Archer, who has the longest range and the strongest output capability.

The siege tower, which is more than 30 meters high, allows the phantom shooters to take care of the first attackers in almost any corner.

With the help of the high platform, Xu Lai was able to get a general idea of ​​the situation.

The number of demons far exceeds that of humans, almost a ratio of ten to one.

However, what is left on the battlefields in every corner are often the corpses of demons.

Not to mention the demons that were killed by magic ammunition near the city gate, the demons in other corners are basically at a disadvantage.

Although the vanguards are no match for four hands with two fists, even if the demons surround the vanguards tightly, they cannot break their defense no matter how hard they attack. So what’s the use of having a large number?

And the vanguards' random counterattack, with the blessing of god-level offensive techniques, instantly killed the demons below the high level, and seriously injured the demons above the high level.

However, even ants can kill elephants. After all, the demons have ultimate offensive skills, so their defense is not completely unbreakable.

After being scattered to every corner, the flags of officers at all levels were not seen by anyone.

The superiors need to shout until they are hoarse in order to convey their orders.

Eric flew into the sky, but attracted countless winged demons and fire elves.

The Winged Demon was fine, as the Black Dragon’s breath could kill a large group of them.

Creatures like the Fire Elves can only be cleared out one by one using spears and dragon claws.

The dragon spear is long and powerful, but it is still not light even after being enchanted.

With Eric's strength and physique as a ninth-level dragon knight, and with the blessing of the statue of the god of war, he could only fight for one or two hours at most.

Of course, at this time he had already put down his dragon spear and was fighting with his knight's sword.

However, the dense swarms of fire elves had already blocked all his vision.

The battle has begun. Even the Seraph Legion cannot leave and must guard both sides of the siege tower.

Even so, there were still a steady stream of winged demons and fire elves flying over, trying to kill the archers on the siege tower.

The two siege towers were originally used to help the first to climb the city, but now they can only be busy saving themselves.

As soon as the rain of arrows stops, demons will come in immediately.

Even Xu Lai, who originally wanted to come up to observe the situation, had to pick up the Prophet's Sword to protect Giselle from the harassment of the devil.

The thousands of royal griffins led by Lena did not move, as their number was not large.

Moreover, after the magic of fire control is dispelled, close combat with the fire spirit will be rebounded by the fire shield.

Soon, the phantom archer on the siege tower had used up all his arrows and needed to restock.

On the ground, archer masters and sky shooters have already occupied various rooftops and started to take up advantageous terrain to support the infantry.

The regular army of the Qingfeng Legion rushed to the main road of Briston, where the terrain was slightly more open and could accommodate more troops of the Qingfeng Legion.

The captain of the royal guard held his shield in front, and the warriors in golden armor held up their halberds and placed them on the captain's shield.

The demons along the way, whether they were the Horned Warlord or the Evil King, could not resist the powerful damage brought by the tactical formation.

Some lava trolls in the inner city were finally able to take advantage of their advantageous position and launch long-range attacks on humans.

But under the healing skills of the priests and priests, the human phalanx still moved forward courageously.

In the rest of the streets, the few people in the vanguard camp alone would definitely not be able to clear out the countless demons.

Emilia joined in just in time with the Naga Guards.

The Nagas, like the Vanguard Battalion, were all incorporated into Reina's command.

The combination of defensive expertise and god-level offensive skills makes these multi-armed Nagas seem like gods descended from heaven.

The soldiers who arrive at the camp first will be restricted by the huge number of demons.

But Naga doesn’t know that. One Naga is equivalent to a team.

Especially the Naga Sword Master, the terrifying existence of the Eight-Armed Naga, the eight arms can clear all the demons nearby just by dancing randomly without any rules.

The human coalition forces have been winning victory after victory, and their high morale has never dropped.

On the other hand, the demons, even though they had the advantage in numbers, were retreating all the way, and their morale was dropping like a stream, which soon triggered the negative effect on morale.

It was at this time that Xu Lai ordered the troops on the other three sides to open an escape route.

The demons, who were fighting a desperate battle, had no way to retreat, so they continued to fight tenaciously even though their morale had dropped to the bottom.

As the three city walls opened, countless demons rushed out of the city like a tide.

Xu Lai actually wanted to surround and annihilate this group of demons.

But he really couldn't do it. The other three sides of the city wall were only surrounded by some cavalry, with only about 5000 cavalry on each side.

If there are not many demons escaping, they can still block the gap, but if they escape in large groups, they will not have time to block it.

Since it is impossible to block it, and it will only give the devil the idea of ​​fighting to the death, why not just open up the passage.

In any case, it would be easier for Xu Lai to lead the cavalry troops to chase down the fleeing demons who had no intention of fighting.

But ordinary demons can escape, but Patton, Mendis and others have nowhere to retreat or escape.

As the strongest fighting force of the demons, they did not dare to show up at this time and all hid in the inner city.

However, Xu Lai was not interested in attacking the inner city. Instead, he climbed down from the siege tower himself and led the Holy Light Knights to attack the great demons defending the Gate of the Abyss.

Today's big demon's combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the previous two days. The blessing of the ultimate offensive technique and the ultimate defensive technique is not given in vain.

However, the Holy Light Knights were no less rank than them, and they also had the support of the Angel Alliance and the Statue of the God of War.

On the other hand, the morale of the demons has almost dropped to zero, and all the big demons have at least a 10% reduction in attack and defense.

With the increase and decrease, the hundreds of big demons and thousands of lava trolls stationed here only lasted for more than an hour.

More than an hour later, it was still dark.

The most important building of the Hell Camp, the Gate of the Abyss, has been completely destroyed by Xu Lai. (End of this chapter)
