The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

All signs indicate that this time Hell is serious about its actions.

The most obvious sign is that almost all of these little demons have been reincarnated into horned demons.

Most of the demons in hell can be reincarnated as long-horned demons after death. The only difference is whether it is cost-effective or not.

There is only one factor that affects whether these demons can be reincarnated into long-horned demons, and that is their health points in their previous life.

Imps are of low level and have low health points, and it often takes several imp corpses to reincarnate into a horned demon.

But there are those with higher levels than the horned demons, such as evil gods, crypt demons, and advanced winged demons.

Their level may be higher than that of Horned Fiends, or at least equal to that of Horned Fiends, but Horned Fiends are melee tank units with extremely high health points.

These units, such as the Evil King, even if their health points are higher than those of the Horned Demons, cannot produce two Horned Demons from one corpse.

As for those whose health points are lower than those of the horned demons, it often takes two or even three to reincarnate one.

Obviously, it would be extremely uneconomical to exchange it with a demon lower than the Horned Demon.

However, among all the demons that can reincarnate into the Horned Devil, only the Horned Devil and its advanced units cannot be reincarnated.

Otherwise, Hell would have to make unlimited use of the horned demon's corpse.

Besides, no matter how generous Kerrigan is or how many magic potions he has, the Evil King's magic power has a limit.

The evil gods do not have enough magic power to replace the reincarnated demons in a short period of time.

In other words, if Hell did not take advantage of this large-scale pig farming opportunity to launch a general offensive, it would basically not be able to organize a second such large-scale offensive.

Thanks to humans' leniency, most of the little demons actually rush to the front.

The main output of human shooters is basically placed on high-level troops such as Hellfire.

The little devils and jumping demons have almost no fighting power. Even if they are given a few more years, they will never be able to break through Graycastle.

Hell has seized the initiative in the war. It has been mixing low-level demons like imps and jumping demons into the siege team just for today.

In the past, these little demons were not worthy of much attention, so when the demons suddenly attacked today, we were overwhelmed.

There are only one quarter of the phantom archers on duty in the arrow tower. In order to ensure time to replenish ammunition, these one quarter will take turns to attack.

There are only 2000 sky archers on the city wall, and because these 2000 sky archers are already top-level, they will only take action when the demons approach.

The rest of the time, the output is given to those sharpshooters and archer masters who have not yet been upgraded.

After all, the sky shooters have reached the limit of their upgrades, and the rest of the shooters will gain a little more combat power if they can upgrade one level.

Placing these little demons into the shooter's offensive circle resulted in the reincarnated horned demons being extremely close and more threatening.

The advantage is that it is not easy for these extremely slow guys to run away.

"Quick, all shooters, shoot the little demons and winged demons first, don't let them fly onto the city wall."

Fortunately, Reina reacted very quickly. After discovering that the number of demons was wrong, she immediately called the reserve team.

The previous mirror image of the huge number of demons did paralyze Lena, preventing her from noticing the abnormality in the number of demons at the first time.

However, Reina knew very well that the devil's general attack would be in the next two days.

Therefore, she divided the team in the city into four groups, one group on duty and one group taking turns to rest.

Of the remaining two groups, one was on standby in the military camp, and the other was the smallest in number, but like the soldiers in the sentry posts, they were the fully armed general reserve.

"Commander, should we wake up those soldiers who are resting?" Deputy Brandi asked hurriedly.

Reina shook her head firmly: "The current attack is still not fierce, and the enemy's main force has not been seen.

Besides, there was plenty of sunshine in the afternoon, which gave our shooters a huge advantage. There was no way Kerrigan would launch a general attack during this time period.

The general attack of the demons from hell must be at night.

Go tell those warriors to plug my ears, or ask the idle mages to put up some silencing barriers.

I won't let anyone bother them until they finish their dinner tonight!"

If nearly three-quarters of the troops in Graycastle are unable to defend the city, then waking up the sleeping quarter will be of little use.

After all, Graycastle is not too big. Even if everyone is woken up, they cannot stand on the city wall.

As the soldiers on standby in the barracks arrived, the long-range firepower output on the city wall became more and more intense.

But the little demons and winged demons are flying units after all, and can be stacked together in the sky.

These layers of demons cannot be completely cleared no matter how hard you try.

Even if these demons die in the end, they will die over the city wall, or simply smash themselves directly into the city wall.

There is no need to be afraid of dying behind the city wall, because the Evil King also needs a target to cast spells. Without seeing the demon corpses, they cannot cast spells even if they want to.

But the city walls had to be cleared in a timely manner, and all idle conscripted infantry were mobilized.

The demon corpse falling from the sky should be thrown as far as possible. Even if you don’t have the strength to throw it far away, at least throw it under the city wall.

In the demon camp, there were already a large number of fully armed long-horned generals, holding high the tower shields seized from humans, to cover the Evil King as he moved forward.

In the hands of humans, a large tower shield that requires both hands to use can protect all tall infantry.

In the hands of these demons, it could only barely cover the body.

However, this is the best equipment that the demons can capture and use directly.

With such a tower shield, all damage except for siege damage from catapults and crossbows will be reduced by half.

Even if armor-piercing arrows are used, the effect is not ideal, unless it is a Behemoth armor-piercing arrow made with Behemoth Claws.

This kind of arrow ignores a lot of defense. For an archer with high enough damage, three or four arrows can clear the durability of a tower shield.

But even without shields, these warlords would use their bodies as cover to protect the evil kings from approaching and casting spells.

The Evil Kings are not spellcasting units, but rather physical units. Apart from raising pigs, they do not know any other spells.

But perhaps because of their specialization, their spells can be cast at a very long distance, and ordinary archers can only cause half the damage of their arrows even if they are on the city wall.

It was originally only half an arrow's damage, which was halved by the tower shield, and then halved again by the ultimate defense.

Even with the support of the Angel Alliance, the Statue of the God of War and ultimate archery, the attack effect is extremely poor.

To shoot down a steel tower shield, you need at least a master archer who can shoot 2 to 30 arrows.

But if it was Giselle, she could break the shield with one arrow and pierce the heart with another, and she wouldn't even need the third arrow to kill a horned warlord carrying a tower shield.

However, to block the sky, we also need phantom shooters who can release phantoms.

The full output of 2000 phantom shooters is truly comparable to more than ten times the number of human shooters.

Whether it was the Winged Demon or the even worse Imp, their health and defense were not high. The average level of the Phantom Archers was 7.6, and even with half the Phantom Arrows, they could definitely kill the Imp instantly and kill or severely injure the Winged Demon.

It’s a pity that the number of phantom shooters is limited after all, and it’s impossible to take care of them all.

If I had to pick a priority, it would be to keep the little demons away.

If these things fall on the city wall and are successfully reincarnated by the Evil King, they will immediately destroy the long-range output of the shooters on the wall.

As for those evil gods, Kerrigan has invested a lot this time and is very determined. It is impossible to eliminate them all in a short time.

Xu Lai did not pay attention to the battle on the city wall, but left it entirely to Lena.

Reina is not good at attacking, but she is very good at defending.

His main focus is still on the crypt demons hiding underground.

He would feel uneasy as long as these things didn't appear.

He had a feeling that these things wouldn't last long.

The cavalry he sent out of the city, carrying so much dry food, would not be able to hold out for a few days. If they did not join the battle, they would have to take a detour and leave to look for food and fodder.

Those crypt demons would almost starve to death unless they really hibernated underground.

If they are in hibernation, no one will be able to contact them during the hibernation period unless Kerrigan and the crypt demons agree on a wake-up date in advance.

It has to be said that these underground demons have taken up too much of human energy.

At least now, in order to prevent these subterranean demons from raiding city gates, catapults and other important locations, Xu Lai had to lead the team to patrol personally.

Originally, with the resurrection of the Evil King, a large number of horned demons had already poured into the foot of the city wall.

At this position, even archers need to stick their heads out to attack, and the rest of the catapults, crossbow carts, etc. have already been trapped in blind spots.

Of course, even if there is still an attack angle, the focus of the catapults is not these horned demons, but the increasing number of catapults on the side of hell.

The catapults from Hell never dared to get too close. Even though their numbers were increasing, they still posed no threat to the walls of Graycastle.

This is especially true for the horned demon in the corner.

The horned demon, without any siege equipment, could only use its pitiful output to destroy the gate of Graycastle, except to be a sitting duck.

Xu Lai had reinforced this thing, so its defense was ridiculously high, and it was a city defense type defense.

The 4th level horned demon, even with Kerrigan's ultimate offensive technique, was unable to break through the defense of the city gate.

The funniest part is that the demons often bring bad luck to their enemies.

So although Kerrigan had a complete set of artifacts, he was only equipped with the suppression elves that could suppress morale.

Xu Lai's luck was reduced by 3 points, but he had a high-level treasure that added 1 points of luck, so the troops only reduced their luck by point.

Just this one bit of bad luck has caused his troops to have a one in ten chance of reducing their output by half.

But humans have the Sinful Angel on their side, and the demons now carry two points of negative luck, so two out of every ten attacks can only cause half the damage.

The gate of Graycastle is very large and can accommodate a lot of horned demons.

However, the horned demon's luck at this time was minus two points, so there was no possibility of a critical hit, and it couldn't even consume the durability of the city gate.

Apart from the internal and external cooperation, the catapults have no advantage and the demons have almost no chance of breaking through the gate of Graycastle.

Unless Kerrigan appears on the battlefield in person and uses siege spells such as earth-shaking.

But in fact, Kerrigan didn't even get close to the battlefield. All the demons had only one fixed attack acceleration.

Even the effect of accelerating the attack was dispelled early on by the Disperse Technique.

As time passed, Lena had already begun to release the second and even third round of strategic spells.

The Slowdown Technique greatly slows down the demon's advance.

With the help of the Holy Spirit, all shooters can maximize their output and kill as many high-value targets as possible, such as the Evil King.

Kerrigan in the back was also very hesitant, and the current situation was showing a one-sided trend.

He tried his best, but could only force his demons to get closer to Graycastle.

But if we don't continue to exert pressure, even the troops that have already approached will be wiped out by humans sooner or later.

The most important thing is that more than one third of the catapults have been lost.

If not, while the catapults are still attracting humans' ultra-long-range firepower, let your own troops approach quickly.

Once the humans' catapults are free to release magic bullets on a large scale again, the casualties of the demon army will increase several times.

However, Kerrigan had already sent out the Horned Warlord and the Evil King.

The only troops left that can be mobilized are the Lava Trolls, Fire Elves and Archdemon Troops.

The Fire Elves couldn't move at all. Once this army retreated, the human knights would immediately launch a charge on the demon camp.

The demon army cannot move lightly. Once this army moves, it will basically be a decisive battle, the kind of decisive battle that cannot be escaped from.

These two cannot be moved, and he plans to use the Crypt Fiends during the raid at night, so the only one who can attack now is the Lava Troll.

The Fire Demon Barton personally led the 30,000 lava trolls and 100,000 mixed forces of fire trolls and fire demons, and moved towards Graycastle under the cover of a large number of Horned Demon Warlords.

Patton was not so willing, but the front battlefield needed a demon hero, otherwise he would suffer a great loss in terms of spells.

Kerrigan certainly wouldn't take the risk, so Patton had to make amends for his crime.

This time, basically the entire demon army was mobilized, not only the lava trolls, but also the level 5 long-horned demons.

The long-horned evil spirits, carrying hastily made ladders, hid at the back of the team.

Under the blockade of more and more human long-range troops, with the extremely slow flying speed of the little devil and the fragile life of the winged demon, it is difficult to land on the city wall on a large scale.

In order to buy time for the shooters to attack, Lena even sent out the griffin.

Although the number of griffins cannot be compared with that of demons, their rank and combat effectiveness are far superior to those of demons.

Moreover, the griffin only needs to guard the limited space around the city wall, so it can be used.

But when a large number of lava trolls appeared in sight, Reina was horrified and immediately issued the latest instructions.

She would rather let go of some of the evil kings and little demons, even if it meant successfully reincarnating them on the city wall.

After all, there are the captain of the royal guards, the golden-armored warriors, the sword masters and the crusaders on the city walls.

The strength of the infantry on the walls of Graycastle cannot be ignored.

However, the city walls, where the troops were too concentrated, could not withstand the range attack from the lava trolls. (End of this chapter)
