Under the scorching sun, Eski once again regained the vivid vision that mortals do not have. The power of the magical wind and chaotic energy once again appeared in front of his eyes.
The smile on Esky's face grew wider.
Although the energy of the dimension stone is still enough for him to continue to use magic - each dimension coin contains about a dozen grams of dimension stone and has an energy between 1-300CN - but as expected, there is still no wind of magic gently hitting the body. It feels wonderful.
Toxide looked down, his legs hanging in the air still trembling even under the harsh sunlight.
Tengman hung them in the air, and below were densely packed demons.
The demons here are no longer affected by the destruction of the body, and their legs will not be nailed to the ground.
From time to time, there would be humanoid or dog-like demons jumping up from the ground and trying to bite Toksid's feet. Although he and Eski were hung at the same height, the difference in height made his lower limbs farther from the ground. Come closer.
The engineering warlock doesn't care about the scene below. The wind of magic will bring him the location of those things that repel magic. He doesn't have to worry about being hurt by these things at all.
Esky's eyes only focused on the gold bordering the red in the distance, which was the human front.
Although there are probably blue, white, or even other colors of patterns on it, what can be clearly observed from such a long distance is the golden color that sparkles in the sun.
Thanks to such a long distance, and the fact that Khorne's battle banner blocked the sky, humans in the distance would obviously not notice such an obvious culprit hanging in mid-air.
only…
Eski lowered his head for the first time. Even if the stupid demon was just repeating meaningless behavior, the strange behavior of these Khorne Demon Army would probably make this shielding effect minimal.
Judging from the hatred Arkadiza and Neferata have towards this side, they would even leave the demon alone and come directly to hunt them down.
In this case…
Eski recited the incantation of the Horned Rat in his mouth, trying to summon the green smoke to send him and the Gray Prophet away from here.
However, the green smoke only flashed out and dissipated on its own before it enveloped Esky.
Is it because it's still too close to the temple?
Esky's eyes moved to the scorching battlefield in the distance.
Theoretically, there's also a way for him to teleport away.
Since he could open the portal to the Chaos Demon Realm just now, he can send himself to the edge of the Chaos Demon Realm, and then teleport from the Chaos Demon Realm to any place in the world.
However, it is obviously not a wise move for a mortal to enter the Chaos Demon Realm, especially a mortal like Eski who has many entanglements there.
Who knows what the gods among them will do to him?
What's more, Eski clearly knows that he can't even deal with a powerful enough demon right now.
Looking at the human armies that completely surrounded the demon army on both sides, Esky smacked his lips.
Although the fighting between the two sides has lasted for a full thirty minutes, the total number of corpses is less than 3,000. To leave this ghost place, we still have to wait for the battle situation in the distance to change.
It's obviously not a good idea to put yourself in the eyes of Neferata who still has some strength left.
The battle in the distance is still going on. The battle between the two sides is in a stalemate, and the demon's front is becoming increasingly thin.
The power of a single-layer phalanx is indeed unable to stop the impact front, which is dominated by elite demons.
However, after relying on the multi-layered phalanx to reduce the opponent's power and exhaust the physical strength of those elite demons who could cut off spears, the number of demons killed began to gradually increase.
Alcadiza and his cavalry continued to fight in front of the battle, and the demon who performed well released the arrows in his hands.
This thing is very expensive. Even in a trading city like Laemia, each arrow can be exchanged for three kilograms of camel meat.
In addition, this expedition was still too hasty and the arrows carried were not enough. Therefore, they must be used accurately by elites.
A demon approaching the flag of the phalanx was about to cut off the flag bearer's head and flagpole. Before it could react, an armor-piercing arrow with three sharp blades penetrated from his chest and shot from behind. There was a bloody hole in his back.
Neferata's life elixir gave him great strength, making his arm strength far beyond that of ordinary mortals.
Otherwise, let alone a demon, it would be almost impossible to shoot through a human soldier without armor.
One arrow after another accurately landed between the demon's chest and abdomen - it was too unreasonable to require a mortal to accurately shoot at such locations as the joints - so the speed at which the phalanx was broken through was further slowed down.
Under the rapid maneuvers of the cavalry, a large amount of sand flew into the air and formed billowing yellow smoke. The visibility between the human infantry phalanx and the demons quickly dropped to less than ten meters.
Alkadiza watched all this and slowed down his mount.
The method of blowing sand to block the sight has no effect on these monsters. It does not mean that the monster's vision can penetrate the smoke, but his teacher's fighting method cannot be used here at will.
Alkadiza suddenly regretted it.
After losing the first phalanx, he should not have allowed the phalanx soldiers to continue to fight against these monsters.
There are obviously other methods with lower casualties.
In the City of Auroville, among the soldiers of Lamia, the number of cavalry and chariots is large enough.
No matter how strong these monsters are, they are only infantry. Taking advantage of the vastness of the desert, we can use cavalry and chariots to slowly kill them.
As a result, a large number of infantry were used for meaningless consumption.
If the logistics supply is sufficient, enough arrows can be poured into the devil's rear and he can still accept some.
But now, it is obvious that the wrong combat method has been chosen.
The adjutant had come to report once before, and the scout reported that the number of monsters coming out of the temple entrance began to decrease.
In other words, the number of these monsters is almost over, and even if they rely on the consumption of infantry, they can be dealt with smoothly.
It is precisely because of this that he regrets wasting the lives of soldiers more and more.
And on the outer wall of the temple he was looking at, the engineering warlock also made the same prediction as him.
There is an end to the number of demons, and Esky estimates that the total number of demons here, including dog-shaped ones, does not exceed six thousand.
Coupled with the single composition of demons' troops, it is only a matter of time before Alkadiza's army completely engulfs these demons.
It was at this time that the clear spring of the wind of life in Esky's hand connected his blood vessels to the vines.
Green vines once again began to grow on the outer wall of the temple, swinging, sending the engineer warlock and storm rats towards the right wing of the Lahmian army.
