Chapter 300 Balor Flame Demon
It took Nuoshiel a lot of time to capture these three evil demons, but he still arrived at the destination, Huangquan No. 4 Defense Line, within the scheduled time.
Since their birth, the devils have been resisting the invasion of the abyss demons, and the endless number of demons and the never-ending offensive once made the devils feel very difficult to resist. In order to better deal with these endless troubles and prevent the devils from being directly jumped into the face by the portal tactics, the devils have built endless barriers and intermittent defense lines on the vast land of Avernus. Huangquan No. 4 Defense Line is such a very critical special stronghold.
From the naming method, it can be concluded that the Huangquan Defense Line is not just a single individual. The entire defense line has a total of 12 main defense areas, corresponding to Huangquan No. 1 to Huangquan No. 12. The defense line is built around the main trunk of the Styx in this area, with the wide Styx and the barrier walls built at key locations as the main defense measures. There are about 30 regular devil legions and a larger number of cannon fodder corps stationed on the entire defense line.
As for the specific number of troops in each defense line, from the intelligence obtained by Noshier, it can be learned that the number of troops in the defense line depends on the criticality of the area and the number of demons faced. Unfortunately, Huangquan No. 4 is such a dangerous area surrounded by a large number of demon legions and more demons.
At this time, Noshier was relying on the magic of the manta ray cloak to slowly approach the main area of the defense line from the edge of the No. 4 defense line, and as he got closer, the frantic and noisy fighting and the roar of various engineering equipment became clearer and clearer.
When Noshier was still five kilometers away from the main battlefield, he quietly poked his head out of the river and looked at the battlefield with his eyes strengthened by the eagle totem to be comparable to the eagle eye technique. He finally understood how tragic the real bloody front line was.
Noshier had said before that the Styx was the oldest and most mysterious river in the world. This river flows through the entire lower plane. Whether it is the Nine Hells or the Abyss, the main trunk of this river can be seen. From this aspect, the Styx can be called the longest river in the entire Crystal System.
No one knows how long the Styx is, because it is impossible to be recorded artificially. And how wide is the Styx? According to the records of demon scholars, the widest part of the Styx is in Stygia, located in the fifth layer of hell, where the demons found a Styx river channel that is more than 200 kilometers wide, which can be called as wide as the sea.
At this time, the No. 4 defense line where Noshier was located was naturally not as exaggerated as the demon records, but the river channel in this area was more than 1,200 meters wide even at the narrowest place, and the shallowest depth was conservatively estimated to be more than a thousand meters deep. But now, right in front of Noshier, he saw with his own eyes that a steady stream of demons were stepping on the corpses of their kind, running quickly across the Styx, and then attacking the huge and towering castle on the opposite bank.
Yes, the endless demons have filled the Styx with their own corpses to create a road for people to pass. Noshiel can see that the floating corpses under the demons' feet are slowly being dissolved by the river water, but the surging offensive of the demons always allows the demons to quickly fill the bridge under their feet.
"Are you kidding? Even if we take into account the buoyancy and adhesion of the water surface, the demons floating on the water surface must be at least hundreds of meters deep, considering the corrosiveness of the river water itself? How many tens of thousands of corpses are there?"
Hundreds of thousands? Two hundred thousand? It is said that demons are not afraid of life and death, but it was not until today that Noshiel saw how exaggerated this statement is. In addition to this jaw-dropping number of casualties, the scene that caused these casualties in the distance is even more terrifying.
Two red meteors suddenly bombarded the sky above the demon's castle, and the red protective shield that suddenly rose up by the demon side blocked this devastating blow. At the same time, the demon side also launched a counterattack, and an astonishing lightning storm instantly raged in the middle of the [Demon Bridge].
"Great! In a battlefield of this level, even a demon lord would be killed if he didn't run. How can I save my life in this chaotic situation and find that guy named Haruman?"
Noshier didn't know, so he could only continue to observe from a distance, hoping to find a chance through this move.
At this time, the demons were still launching a desperate charge. Even though the lightning storm was right in front of them, they knew that rushing forward would be suicide, but they didn't stop for even a second.
Noshier knew that this was not normal. No matter how fearless the demons were, they would not deliberately die like this. If this happened, there must be other demons commanding them. And to command so many demons, their leader must be a legendary demon!
Thinking of this, Noshier began to observe the battlefield more carefully, but in fact, he didn't need to bother looking for them at all. Those legendary demons jumped out by themselves.
Yes, those, this battlefield is far more dangerous than Noshier imagined. There are two legendary demons appearing in front of Noshier alone. A famous Balor Fire Demon suddenly turned back from the right, which is the area where the demons are. The Balor Fire Demon flapped his huge flaming wings, raised and swung the flaming whip in his right hand, and violently crashed into the lightning storm.
Then, after only a dozen seconds, the violent lightning storm was suddenly dispersed by a huge wave of fire. The blazing fire ring not only dispersed the storm but also burned a large number of demons around it. However, the Balrog demon obviously didn't care about that. He just raised the huge beheading sword in his left hand and pointed it at the castle in front of him. At the same time, he let out a violent roar, signaling the demons to continue charging forward until they completely broke through the devil's defense line.
The demons obeyed his orders very well. Although the raging fire in front of them had not completely stopped, they would be burned by the remaining bone-eroding flames of the demon if they rushed forward now, or even burned to death. However, at this time, these demons were like waves that could not be stopped. Even if they realized the danger ahead, they could not stop. After all, as long as they stopped, the iron hooves of the [compatriots] behind them would mercilessly trample them under their feet, making them merge with the bridge under them.
So they had to move forward, and they could only move forward until there was no room for further movement, until they ran into reefs that they could not move, and their blood and bones fell into the River Styx or merged into the earth. Noshil even felt that the original bridge was built in this way.
