Chapter 423 Devil's Curse
It stands to reason that with the powerful regeneration ability of the demons, even if the body is penetrated, it is still not a fatal injury. However, the magic rays fired by the obelisk after the series connection, although on the surface it looks like ordinary penetrating wounds, these demons fell down one by one and died.
A careful observation can reveal that the magic rays emitted by the obelisk not only caused a wound, but also completely destroyed the body tissues of the pierced demons and killed them.
The demons in the demon army have varying strengths. Some magic rays were exhausted after piercing more than fifty demons; some were blocked after killing only four or five demons. Even a series of magic rays was easily blocked by a legendary demon general.
On average, the demon army belonging to the Great Demon King Piccolo, which attacked head-on, directly lost about two hundred demons under the attack of the ten magic rays of the obelisk. Although most of the demons killed by the magic rays were weaker, it was enough to scare the demons.
For the Great Demon King Piccolo, the loss of only two hundred weak demons is naturally nothing. But for every demon soldier charging forward, the place where the magic ray reaches is the boundary between life and death.
The attack speed of the obelisk is not slow, and under Yu Fei's control, it is not just four connected in series, but freely combined.
For example, for the legendary demon general who showed up and blocked a magic ray before, Yu Fei mobilized ten obelisks in series to attack that demon general. And this attack launched in series according to the highest limit did not disappoint Yu Fei.
The demon general easily blocked the magic ray emitted by the four obelisks in series before, and he didn't care much about the magic ray that came later. For these rays that would cause fatal damage to some of his subordinates, he had no intention of actively blocking them.
However, just as he casually waved his arm, ready to block the magic ray that just hit him like before, his face suddenly became unbelievable.
Because of carelessness, the demon general did not use all his strength to defend. The rays emitted by the ten obelisks in series were already at the legendary level.
Under the same level of attack, he did not take any defensive measures. The miserable state of the demon general can be imagined. Although his strong vitality did not directly annihilate him, his raised arm disappeared completely, and his chest behind it was almost penetrated, and his sunken body looked extremely terrifying.
The remaining intact head of the demon general let out a shrill wail, and his middle body seemed to be only a piece of skin, and the scene looked extremely curious for a while.
At this moment, even the Great Demon King Piccolo who was observing from behind could not help but look solemn. Although this level of attack was nothing to him, it was not a level that ordinary demons could easily reach.
Now, the Bloody Mountain, which had no idea what had changed, could actually launch such attacks continuously with just some strange-shaped stone tablets. What Piccolo thought was that if he could get the method to build such a building, wouldn't his own Demon Castle be impregnable?
When he thought of this, Piccolo's heart couldn't help but get hot. This time he came to investigate the changes in Blood Mountain, and he really got what he expected. In terms of danger, the attack of the obelisk posed less threat to him, but the benefits were already in front of him.
Piccolo didn't care about the casualties of those demon soldiers. Seeing that the Beetle Demon King's troops in the other two directions were also attacked by the obelisk, but the strength was obviously weaker, he thought for a while and ordered to intensify the attack, so that the Beetle Demon King, who was pulled in as cannon fodder, could not get the benefits first.
Although the legendary demon general did not die directly, he was definitely not combat-effective in a short time. For such generals who were only one level lower than himself, the demon king would not abandon them casually, so he ordered several demon soldiers to take the demon general to the rear.
As for the other three legendary demon generals, they were at the forefront under the order of the Great Demon King Piccolo, blocking as many magic rays as possible. Although the three generals were reluctant to block the gun hole after seeing the miserable state of the previous demon general, they had to step forward because of the power of the Great Demon King Piccolo.
However, the three legendary demon generals could only block three rays. And the magic rays fired by the obelisks, whether alone or in series, looked the same in appearance.
In this way, the three demon generals could not tell which of the intricate magic rays could pose a slight threat to themselves and needed to be blocked as much as possible; and which ones did not need to be blocked at all and would not cause too many casualties to their men.
Therefore, the changes made by the demon army did not reduce casualties much. A magic ray fired by ten obelisks in series even directly penetrated the bodies of hundreds of demon soldiers, causing great panic.
However, the demon army was not the same as the ordinary human army. In addition to their stronger fighting desire and will, their speed of advance was not comparable to that of human soldiers. The range of the obelisk was not very far after all. Even if the range would be increased after being connected in series, they were bullied by the demon army after only three rounds of attacks.
Just between the obelisk and the demon army, there were blood elf soldiers with a complete lineup, neatly dressed, and exuding a powerful aura. The less than 100 night elf units, which were originally a minority and should have been mixed into the blood elf army and were inconspicuous, also attracted the attention of the demons because of the existence of mountain giants.
As the only blood elf tribe with strong defensive capabilities, the blood knights stood in the front row. The leader was the only converted shelter knight Singed. Behind him were 20 shield cavalrymen and 100 ordinary blood knights.
As for the 50 lancers who tended to attack and the blood rage knight Singili, because the current situation did not allow them to take the initiative to attack, they could only stay behind and move out according to the situation.
Standing with the shield cavalrymen were ten mountain giants. In the main attack direction of the demon army, Yu Fei allocated half of the blood elf and night elf forces to fight against the attack of the great demon king Piccolo.
Yu Fei thought that with the help of the obelisk and the advantage of the terrain, the victory of the offensive and defensive battle of Blood Mountain would definitely belong to his side.
But soon, the performance of the demons gave him a wake-up call.
When they were still a hundred meters away from the blood elves, the demon soldiers stopped advancing one after another, and waved their strange limbs with a grin, releasing strange spells at the blood elves.
Some of these spells were a wisp of black smoke, some were a piece of blood light, and some were simply a virtual skull with a strange grin.
Although the blood elves were transformed into military units through military buildings, they did not lose their previous memories. Seeing these strange spells cast by the demons, they all changed color.
Before Yu Fei asked the blood elves about these strange spells, the black smoke, blood light and even the skulls quickly pounced on the blood elves. But strangely, these spells did not bring any killing effect, but turned into marks attached to the foreheads of the blood elves in the front row.
Now, without the blood elves explaining to him, Yu Fei already understood the nature of these strange spells. The black smoke, blood light, and skulls are actually recorded in some books of Eslazer, the curse spells of demons.
Almost all demons are born to cast curse spells. However, most of the so-called curses are insignificant to people with slightly stronger strength.
But the demons who cast curses in the demon army on the opposite side are all strong beings, and they will definitely not cast insignificant curse spells.
