Chapter 646 - The Enemy Doesn’t Seem Strong (2/2)

The commander was Lawrence, a fire devil who was almost a Legend.

The prospects of fire devils were generally not as good as those of a battle devil of fear, but Lawrence was an exception.

He was so talented that he had killed Legendary experts even though he wasn’t a Legend yet. “These weak human beings are attacking us?” Lawrence was quite surprised. He participated in the last invasion to the main plane too, and he strongly despised human beings.

Except a tiny minority, most people didn’t even dare to raise their swords at the devils but could only flee.

But this time, thirty thousand human beings had broken into the Realm of Devils. The whole thing seemed uncanny.

“Something isn’t right.” The fire devil exhaled. Flames gushed out of his mouth and quickly disappeared. “Ryan, what do you think we should do?”

“We should fall back and establish defenses.” Seeing that the humans’ vanguard had covered half of the distance between them, Ryan became even more uneasy. “Those human beings are very strong.”

“Are you saying that thirty thousand of them can beat a hundred thousand of us?” The fire devil’s eyes were hidden behind the thick rock helmet. “I’m told that you retreated after only losing three thousand soldiers last time.”

“The enemy is very strong and unusual.”

The fire devil chuckled. “I think so too, but we don’t have a choice. Lord Paimon has asked me to lead the attack and cooperate with another big shot.”

Ryan said with a bitter smile, “Is that so? Got it. I’ll lead the charge immediately.”

“You’ll lead the charge? Then what will I do?” The fire devil snorted and raised the gigantic battle axe in his right hand before he roared, “The Black Bone Mages will create battlefield fog. The rest of you, charge after me!”

The Black Bone devils who were hiding in the rear all began to wave their wands.

Nasty and ear-splitting chants resounded.

Very soon, a thick red fog arose before them.

The fog reeked of blood and waste.

The fog was spreading and quickly enshrouded a large area and all the players. All the players’ vision was restrained. Also, the fog smelled very disgusting.

“This stuff is poisonous. Priests, disperse it.”

Very soon, white, blue, and green light, representing the Priests of light, ocean, and life respectively, flashed among the players.

It was the girls of the Phoenix Guild who cleared the fog first.

All the Elven Summoners were capable of dispersing, and so were the creatures they summoned. So, they took care of the visibility problem in only ten seconds. They even sent a team of flying goblins to help Fatter Cat to eliminate the fog.

Very soon, the players in the other lanes cleared the fog around them too.

Then, they felt that the earth was shaking violently and realized that the devils were only a hundred meters away from them.

“How despicable!”

“The fog can absorb noise and make us deaf!”

Under normal circumstances, the charge of a hundred thousand devils would be as loud as a tsunami, but they didn’t hear the charge until just now. It could’ve only been because of the fog.

The devils, however, were even more surprised than the players were.

The red fog strategy had always been the most practical strategy when they invaded the main plane.

It had never failed before.

The army of human beings in the main plane, no matter how many, couldn’t resist the red fog.

It was partly because few Priests were in the army, and partly because those Priests weren’t strong enough.

Even if they could disperse the fog, they wouldn’t have the mental power to cast other spells if they were busy dealing with the fog. They would still be at the devils’ mercy.

This time, not only were the enemies all professionals, but the number of Priests even took up one-sixth of the total.

There seemed to be a Priest among every six human beings.

Also, they seemed to all be Battle Priests.

The players were surprised to see the enemies so close, but they weren’t anxious.

The Shield Warriors moved forward behind enormous tower shields. When the enemies were thirty meters away, they all smashed their shields into the ground and established a straight perimeter of shields.

Almost all the shields were shivering slightly.

It was a special skill of the Shield Warriors, as well as a must-learn for all Shield Warriors. “A coalition line of defense?” The fire devil who was running ahead was greatly surprised.

This ability was quite tricky. If one or two Shield Warriors were to use it, it wouldn’t be too effective.

However, if dozens of people were to use it at the same time, they could establish an iron wall of defense.

At this moment, the fire devil saw at least three hundred people behind the line of defense.

“They’re truly unusual!”

The coalition line of defense was a great ability, but it required a constitution growth of at least eight points. Under normal circumstances, only ten in ten thousand soldiers could use it.

Yet, he saw that three hundred people could use it at the same time?

Was it real?

The fire devil didn’t really believe it. He was quite big and a distance of thirty meters meant only several steps. With his body that was five meters tall and an axe that was three meters long and weighed five hundred kilograms, he cut it down with the momentum of charge.

The giant roaring axe even twisted the air.

However, the giant axe didn’t cut both the enemy and his shield apart as expected.

Instead, after a thump, his gigantic axe bounced back.

It was real!

The fire devil was quite surprised.

Then, more devils roared and crashed into the wall of shields like waves.

They were like black tides hitting a levee.

The waves were splashing and rising, yet the levee was absolutely still.

Then, a storm of arrows and spells was launched from behind the levee.

Screams were bursting out intensely as a lot of devils were killed.

The fire devil covered his face and slowly retreated. None of the arrows or spells that hit his rock helmet really hurt him.

The enemy didn’t seem very strong.

After the first round of battle, many players keenly realized that.

At this moment, Roland, who was hiding in the crowd, looked at the Mages in the rear of the enemy line.

Those Black Bone Mages seemed to be performing their spells again.

At this moment, Roland snapped his fingers and suddenly disappeared.
