The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

Chapter 718 Return to the old capital

In addition to casting spells, Dandanmu also mobilized a large number of demons to trap Xu Lai and others in the demon group.

As a range-based strong control ability, Sleeping Magic will not last too long.

The most important thing is that Sleeping Magic, as a protective skill, follows the caster.

The nightmare beast was seriously injured by a blow. What it needed most at this moment was to find a place to heal its wounds, and it would not stay here for too long.

The biggest difference between beasts and humans is that beasts make extremely low use of tools.

As Kerrigan's mount, the Nightmare Beast cannot be covered with a heavy vest like an ordinary warhorse.

Things like potions don't have the ability to work on their own unless someone helps them use them.

However, instead, they have larger bodies than humanoid creatures, more lives and attributes, stronger life recovery abilities and upper limits, etc.

The nightmare beast hid away to heal its wounds, so the frontal battlefield had to be left to Dandanmu and the horned demon commander he led.

Before the nightmare beast could go too far away, Elvy and the holy angels she led opened their eyes first.

It was at this moment that the invincibility effect surrounding them disappeared.

Without invincibility, it means that we can attack the angels.

A large number of three-headed hellhounds roared and pounced on the angels.

Elvy snorted coldly and took two steps forward.

Although the Sword of Judgment in his hand was much smaller, it emitted a long and narrow golden light when it was swung.

The golden light shot out seven or eight meters, and a simple horizontal slash could kill more than a dozen three-headed hellhounds.

Not only Elvy, but other holy angels, under the leadership of Elvy, also concentrated their holy power on their weapons.

By doing this, the killing range was indeed expanded several times, and the efficiency was also improved several times, but the mana consumption was a bit high.

However, Xu Lai had already given the glorious halo seized from Mendis to Elvy.

As recruited units, angels like Elvy don't have many spells to use.

But the angels' most important spell, resurrection, consumes all their mana every time it is used.

After releasing the resurrection spell, there is no way to use spells on the battlefield.

Therefore, Xu Lai specially left this equipment that can quickly restore mana to Elvy.

Having a glorious halo does not mean that the angels’ magical powers are unlimited.

But what Elvy did was to give the enemy the greatest shock as quickly as possible.

With Kerrigan dead and his inhibitory spirit gone, the demons' morale was no longer under control.

The faster you stun the enemy, the greater the magnitude of the shock. The more demons you kill, the faster the enemy's morale will drop.

There are many reasons why Xu Lai was in a hurry to get to Lionheart City.

One is that he did not want the news of Kerrigan's death to leak out, so as to avoid competing with other empires for Lionheart City.

Secondly, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that the holy angels were still there so that he could have stronger combat power.

Finally, the hope is to expel the demon as soon as possible and rescue the civilians of Lionheart City.

Every day the demons occupy Lionheart City, countless civilians will be killed for various reasons.

Even if the demons don't actively harm people, as long as they don't distribute food to humans, they can only survive for a week at most.

Of course, the people in this world have better physical fitness and may be able to last longer.

Xu Lai did not explain these reasons explicitly, but Elvy knew them all clearly.

However, for Elvy, the most important reason was that she wanted to eliminate the threats around her as much as possible and not let Xu Lai be in any danger.

After being forced to land on the ground, Yu Lan did not continue to transform into a giant eagle, but turned into a human form.

Compared to her chain lightning, which has decent attack power but can only kill some targets at a time, her random curse has a greater impact on the battle situation.

The first spell Yu Lan randomly received was Weakness, which could reduce the enemy target's attack power by 10 points.

Compared to other curses, the power of this curse is really not that high.

But this spell has another advantage. Just like acceleration can cover slowness, weakness can also cover the increased attack effect of bloodlust.

At the same time, Yu Lan's spell can affect all enemies. Except that its power is slightly weaker, it can basically be used as a strategic spell.

As for the power, it may not be very strong originally, but being able to cover the bloodthirsty magic is equivalent to a dispelling method.

The 10 points of attack power reduced by weakness are equivalent to giving them away for free.

The angels on the ground were killing people everywhere. Dandanmu knew how powerful the angels were, so he specially mobilized a large number of demons over.

However, these large numbers of demons soon became dead souls in the hands of the angels.

The battle in the sky was similar. The evil angels held up their larger scythes and harvested the winged demons even faster than the Seraphim.

Although Seraphim are faster than evil angels, they are not as agile as evil angels.

The fighting instinct of those evil angels will drive them to teleport to the area where the winged demons are most concentrated.

In the group of winged demons, the evil angel could take the lives of at least a dozen winged demons by raising his sickle and spinning it quickly.

As a Tier 9 unit, although it no longer has the blessing of the war horn, it also has no morale constraints.

With the 20% status of "Morale as High as Rainbow" added, and the god-level offensive technique, not to mention just killing the Winged Demon, even the Fire Elves and the Fiery Elves can be killed instantly.

Originally, no matter how low the damage of the Winged Demon was, it was still under the effect of Dandanmu's ultimate offensive technique and the bloodthirsty magic blessed by the ultimate fire magic.

Even if normal attacks cannot break through the defense, some skills of elite winged demons may still be able to cause some single-digit damage.

After all, no matter how poor their own quality is, it is normal for their attack power to double if they are equipped with high-attack equipment.

If there happens to be equipment that can break or ignore defense, even a stronger Seraph will be hurt.

Besides, the main target of the winged demons is still the level 6 royal griffin.

The Royal Griffin is only one level higher than them, and they are all mid-level units, so there is no rank suppression.

Xu Lai only possesses the ultimate defense technique and has no special defense skills. Even though the Royal Griffin's attributes are far stronger than those of the Winged Demon, it cannot break through the defense at all.

Even if the damage received each time is extremely low, without the treatment of a priest, it will eventually be worn down to death by the winged demon.

However, the Winged Demons already have 3 points of luck reduced, making critical hits and lucky hits almost impossible to achieve.

Now, while weakening another bloodthirsty magic, there is also a weakness. Not to mention the defense-breaking angel, even the royal griffin cannot be cut by the winged demon.

A group of enemies whose defenses cannot be broken through will be useless no matter how many people you have.

In the sky and on the ground, our demons were being slaughtered everywhere, and the attack speed of these guys was ridiculously fast.

In just a short while, less than a minute, there were at least tens of thousands of dog heads on the ground.

A hellhound has three heads, and tens of thousands of dog heads only require more than 3 hellhounds. If the holy angels who release holy energy chop ten hellhounds at a time, 3000 angels can be killed in one blow.

What limits the angels' output is the number of hellhounds, not their attack speed or movement speed.

Of course, there were not so many angels on the ground, and Elvy specially left some to protect Xu Lai and Yu Lan.

At the same time, the street where they fought was not that large, and the output capacity of the angels on the ground was greatly limited.

For Dandanmu, even if there were tens of thousands of pigs, it would take more than ten minutes for these one hundred angels to kill them.

There were more than 10,000 hellhounds, but less than half of them were killed after just a few encounters.

The panicked Dandanmu helplessly tore open a magic scroll of bloodthirsty magic.

At least he has the ultimate fire magic. This first-level fire spell can be easily created even if Dandanmu is not a pagan.

But even this bloodthirsty magic offset the effect of weakness and added dozens of points of attack power.

There is still no impact on the current situation.

The Cerberus, as a melee unit, doesn't even have the ability to get close to these angels.

Not to mention the winged demons. After the first batch of elite ones were almost dead, the ordinary recruited winged demons found it difficult to break through the griffins' defense even with their bloodthirsty magic.

"You have finished casting your spells, so it's my turn now."

After saying that, Xu Lai took out his magic book and found the pages about earth-related spells.

In fact, his spell book also records quite a few spells for resurrection.

For example, the famous reincarnation, and the sacrifice that can be resurrected by sacrificing part of one's own troops.

However, as a 4th-level spell, the former can only be used in wartime and cannot be used once out of combat.

Of course it can be used now, and there is a corpse nearby.

However, these corpses did not belong to Xu Lai when he was alive, and the bodies may not be intact. Even if they are intact, the time for resurrection has long passed.

Although he could not resurrect the former warriors of Lionheart City, Xu Lai could summon new warriors.

After this upgrade, Xu Lai unsurprisingly raised his earth-based spells to the master level.

Master-level earth magic summons less earth elements than fire elements, but the difference is not too big.

The key is that the demons in hell all have fire-resistant skin that can reduce 20% of fire damage.

If you summon earth elementals, at least the damage can be full.

Moreover, the earth element's weak mobility will not be so prominent with the support of Xu Lai's amazing speed and ultimate logistics.

Xu Lai now has 62 points of spirit value, and by consuming 45 points of mana, he can summon a total of 62*6, or 372 earth elements.

Moreover, the spell released is earth-based spell. Master-level earth-based spells have the special effect of reducing the cooling time, and the time to the next casting may be faster than that of demon heroes.

Xu Lai did not use these 400 earth elements to fight, but drove them away and ran towards the gathering place of the fire demons.

The damage caused by the fire demon may not threaten him and the angels, but if it is not cleared out, it may cause fatal harm to the rescued civilians.

At the same time, Xu Lai also took out a spell scroll, which was not very high in level, only level 3.

The spell recorded in this spell scroll is called Amnesia, and its effect is very simple, which is to reduce the damage ability of ranged troops.

Same as the primary and unleveled versions, except for a lower mana cost. Both reduce ranged damage of selected ranged units by 20%.

At the intermediate, advanced and master levels, the damage reduction is increased all the way to 80%, and the ultimate level directly prevents the selected ranged troops from shooting.

Kerrigan didn't leave any fire trolls or lava trolls for Dandanmu, so Xu Lai only needed to choose the fire troll.

The fire demon is not like a physical shooter. Even if it can only throw fireballs in close combat, the damage will not be reduced.

However, the Fire Demon must evolve to the level of the Lava Troll and the Balrog to become completely immune to fire damage.

As long as the earth elementals get close, their efficiency in killing the enemy might not be as fast as the fire demons blowing up their companions.

Anyway, Xu Lai didn't care about the casualties of the earth elements. No matter how many died, they were just summons and would disappear after the battle.

And after the earth elements approached the fire demon, Xu Lai gave another ultimate prayer.

This prayer increases the attack speed and attack, and is blessed by god-level offensive skills and the statue of the god of war.

The earth element is a slow-moving troop with high attack and defense. It can kill a fire demon with just two punches, which is quite efficient.

At this point, although there are many demons on the earth, the situation has basically stabilized.

The royal griffin in the sky is even more invulnerable after prayers increase its attack and defense.

Even if the Winged Demon has a burst of bad luck, at minus 3 points of luck, it can still trigger the critical strike effect of the Ultimate Offense, and the damage will not exceed 20 points.

After the situation on both sides stabilizes, the remaining time is just a matter of seeing when the devil collapses.

This time will definitely not be too long.

Especially when the mercenaries who went underground and the soldiers who hid took up arms and joined the battle again.

Kerrigan took Lionheart, but didn't really have time to clean it up properly.

Lionheart City is a human city after all, and people can hide in sewers, cellars, and buildings at the edges and corners.

Although the Hellhound's nose is very powerful, it is still not enough in a place like the sewer where the stench is everywhere.

Even if they could be distinguished, it would be difficult for them to enter due to their huge size.

These people had been hiding, waiting for the moment when the demons would slack off so that they could seize a city gate and escape from the city.

But today, the angels that descended from the sky gave them the courage to fight again.

The more humans are fought, the more they appear, but the fewer demons appear.

The longer the time went on, the more anxious Dandanmu became.

When those injured nightmare beasts were discovered, they were shot to death by a group of holy angels glowing with golden light from a distance of dozens of meters.

Dandanmu and some "smart" demons could no longer hold on and fled out of the city in all directions.

Their escape caused the morale of the recruited demons, which had already reached the bottom, to drop to 0 points ahead of time, and they collapsed on the spot.

Xu Lai ignored the other demons, and Elvy took her helpers to deal with the nightmare monster.

Xu Lai brought Yu Lan and, with the help of the summoned evil angel, blocked the demon hero who wanted to escape.

The evil angel's teleportation ability is so useful that it can directly block Dandanmu's sight without going through many detours.

Dandanmu looked at these familiar evil angels exuding a sacred aura in despair, and was easily beheaded by Xu Lai with a single sword.

The demons collapsed, their leaders were killed, and the capital of the empire, which had been occupied by the demons for half a month, finally returned to the human camp. (End of this chapter)
