Chapter 428: Siege
Outside Fengdu City, roars resounded through the sky.
The millions of demon army had all completed their assembly. Before they had assigned their respective offensive tasks, the human race had already arrived in front of them, completely catching the demons off guard.
The demon army hurriedly received their respective tasks and continued to flow out along the city gate.
The demons, who originally had an advantage in numbers, were squeezed together because they were all gathered in Fengdu City.
On the other hand, the Demon Slayer Division had formulated all the battle plans early. Under the command and dispatch of the officers, each local area had a numerical advantage.
All the eight gates of Fengdu City were facing the impact of the Demon Slayer Division. The demon soldiers guarding the entrances and exits did not even think about closing the gates. They directly entered the state of close combat at the first moment of the battle.
All the big demons rose into the air together and fought with the human race masters. The violent pressure and fierce demon power collided violently, as if to poke a hole in the sky.
Every minute, every second, countless lives disappeared.
The entire Fengdu City turned into a cold and bloody Shura field, constantly devouring everything that approached.
Puff!
Guan Shan chopped off the last head of the two-headed hellhound in front of him with a sword, and quickly dodged to the right, avoiding the opponent's last claw before death.
The task received by Class 197 was to attack the Xizhimen of Fengdu City. The defense force here was mainly composed of hellhounds. Each team was led by 12 hellhounds and a ghost prison scorpion demon.
After entering the combat position, in just half an hour, Class 197 had killed hundreds of hellhounds.
Under the joint attack of Li Yunxuan, Guan Shan, Gu Jia and Er Gouzi, the ghost prison scorpion demon also killed seven.
However, the demon clan has gradually awakened from the initial state of confusion, and the counterattacks are more fierce than one wave, and there is a faint posture of breaking out of the siege.
"We can't let the demons rush out of Xizhimen. We can't beat them in numbers. Only by closing the gate and beating the dogs can we win." Li Yunxuan's hoarse voice sounded behind Guanshan.
"Without the support of artillery, it's hard to push. How many demons are there in Fengdu City! Damn..."
Qiao Jiangzheng said, and his head was almost bitten off by the hellhound that rushed out of the demon cloud. Fortunately, his sister was beside him and pierced the opponent's head in the air in time.
"It's hard! Guanshan! Don't worry about the hellhound, others can handle it, we just need to focus on the ghost prison scorpion demon."
Li Yunxuan pulled the trigger of the crossbow in his hand, but found that the last arrow had been shot. He put the crossbow behind him, held the long sword with both hands, and led the charge into the scarlet demon cloud.
Class 197 had just advanced a few dozen meters when they were stopped by the demon soldiers who pushed back.
In the demonic cloud, two thick scorpion tails shot at the leader Li Yunxuan at a very fast speed, leaving two blurred afterimages in the air.
Clang! Clang!
Li Yunxuan and Guanshan blocked the scorpion tails on the left and right.
The terrifying cold air erupted under Guanshan's feet, quickly freezing the lower body of the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon and restricting its movement.
Li Yunxuan held the knife in his right hand, and his left hand formed a claw in the air, slamming it upward fiercely.
Several strong wind blades cut through the joints of the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon, making it almost impossible to maintain a standing posture.
The severe pain and extreme cold did not weaken the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon's fighting spirit, but stimulated him to become more violent.
The other two scorpion tails behind the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon suddenly bent into a bow shape, and were about to shoot again.
But the next second.
Bang!
A large hole appeared out of thin air at the neck of the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon, as if an invisible force had penetrated from the neck to the back of the head, piercing the entire head.
The huge body of the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon trembled violently, and the pair of ferocious compound eyes suddenly lost their luster, becoming empty and dull.
Blood, flesh and broken bones splashed out along with yellow and white brains, and the Ghost Prison Scorpion Demon fell backwards powerlessly. After the thick scorpion tail twitched powerlessly for a few times, it completely fell silent.
Puff!
Er Gouzi pulled out the short sword inserted into his neck, and his eyes quickly observed the surroundings, looking for the next target.
Everyone in Class 197 was already a little numb to this scene.
This was a tactic specially formulated by Guan Shan for Er Gouzi.
If they encountered a high-level demon clan, Guan Shan and Li Yunxuan would restrict the opponent's movement at the first time, giving Er Gouzi a chance to sneak attack.
And Gu Jia stayed by Er Gouzi's side throughout the whole process, helping him to get rid of those approaching demon clans.
After all, Er Gouzi was just an ordinary person before he used the [Reverse Fate Lock] to connect to the enemy.
If a big fight really started, a cold arrow would kill Er Gouzi, and he wouldn't even have time to react.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, waves of heat came from the demon cloud, and dozens of fireballs flew from afar.
Guan Shan and Li Yunxuan lowered their bodies at the same time, observing the direction from which the fireballs were coming.
Just as the fireballs were about to hit the two, a two-meter-high earth wall rose from the ground and inserted between the two and the fireballs.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
All the fireballs hit the earth wall erected by Qiao Jiang, splashing black smoke.
The most important thing on the battlefield is not how many enemies you can kill, but to survive when the battle is over.
The division of labor in Class 197 was very clear. Li Yunxuan and Guan Shan were responsible for acting as spearheads, Qiao Xiaohui and Wang Sheng were responsible for finishing off the enemy, Er Gouzi and Gu Jia were responsible for single-point blasting of strong enemies, and Qiao Jiang and Yang Chao were responsible for covering their teammates.
On this Shura battlefield, every bit of superpower could not be wasted at will. Those young men who were responsible for attack, defense, and breakthrough were exhausted.
If you are exhausted on the battlefield, you are no different from a dead person.
Li Yunxuan made a gesture to Guan Shan and turned his head in the opposite direction.
Guan Shan understood and nodded quickly, and the two of them rushed out along both sides of the earth wall.
The hellhounds who didn't understand were still spitting fireballs, and they didn't realize that the god of death had come to them.
Two figures rushed into a dozen hellhounds, and they slaughtered them crazily with their hands and knives.
The twelve hellhound teams were completely wiped out by the butcher knife of Class 197 in just a few minutes.
However, the battle situation did not change much because of the offensive of Class 197. The demons continued to pour out from Xizhimen, as if they could never be killed.
Looking at the red dot that lit up again on the projection in front of him, Guan Shan panted a little quickly and tried to adjust his breath.
"If we keep killing like this, the demons will rush out sooner or later..."
Guan Shan stared at the approaching red dot and said in a serious tone.
Li Yunxuan took a deep breath, stood up again, held the knife horizontally in front of him with both hands, and said calmly, "Don't think too much. The task given to us by the superiors is to block Xizhimen and prevent the demons from leaving Fengdu City."
"Do what we should do. For the rest, it depends on whether we are strong enough."
