Chapter 646 - The Enemy Doesn’t Seem Strong

Chapter 646 The Enemy Doesn’t Seem Strong

As the players pressed on their conquest in the Realm of Devils, the devils naturally reacted.

The devils had always been invaders to the main plane, yet this time, the professionals from the main plane had invaded their realm and even conquered several breeding cities. The news had spread in the Realm of Devils.

Paimon, as one of the leaders of the Realm of Devils, was under a lot of pressure, mostly from other Demon Gods, who all mocked and laughed at him.

There was a mental communication network among the Demon Gods that allowed them to talk in real time, although the consumption of the network was quite high as they were far away from each other.

“Paimon, it’s your turn to send subordinates to the main plane for fun. You activated the magic array, but why didn’t your troops break in? Instead, they let human beings in. What are you up to?”

That was an old and majestic voice.

“Something is seriously wrong about our enemy. I have a bad feeling.” Paimon’s voice echoed in the special space in the Realm of Devils. “Judas, do you want to come over and help?”

“Haha. Forget it, I don’t want to get involved in your business.”

“Should I participate?” A crisp and pleasant female voice cut in. “I’m very interested in the human beings who dare to break into the Realm of Devils.”

“Phoenix, why have you turned into a woman again?” Paimon found it amusing. “You won the Power of Gender Transformation from me just to be a woman?”

Unlike Gender Shift, which could only change one’s sex physically but not their soul, the Power of Gender Transformation could change someone’s body and heart into a female’s.

Phoenix was an out-and-out woman at this moment.

“It’s fun to be a woman.” Phoenix giggled as perkily as a young girl. “I intend to roam the human world in my new identity and check on my descendants. Since the portal is on and I have to cross your territory, I can help if you need me.”

Paimon sounded suspicious. “Haven’t you always been a protector of human beings? Why are you willing to help me deal with them?”

“I am a woman right now, and women are capricious.”

Paimon thought it through after a moment.

His Power of Gender Transformation had negative effects. It was essentially chaotic divine power and could affect one’s mind, not to mention that it was hard to figure out what was on a woman’s mind in the first place.

Now that Phoenix had completely become a woman, these changes were only natural. “Okay,” said Paimon. “The human beings on my territory are Golden Sons. They seem to be from an alien world. According to what I’ve learned, they can be resurrected after death!”

“Is the Life Goddess on their side?”

“Not just her, but the Nether God too. Earlier, signs of the Nether God appeared on my territory. She claimed a thousand of my subjects’ souls and made it impossible for them to be reborn in the Realm of Gods. It’s such a huge loss.”

Under normal circumstances, devils wouldn’t reach the Netherworld after death. They would be deprived of their memories and reborn in the Realm of Devils.

The Realm of Devils had its own reincarnation system.

However, it was a different matter if their souls were collected by the Nether God.

The Nether God was very interested in the souls of the devils, but nobody knew why she collected them.

In any case, the souls of those devils never appeared again.

On the other hand, it was very hard for a new soul to be generated in the Realm of Devils.

“I’m even more interested,” said Phoenix with a smile. “As it happens, I need someone to give me a ride to the main plane.”

“Fine, you can come here,” said Paimon. “You can also test how strong those human beings are for me.”

“Heh. I’m on my way.”

The mental conversation ended. Although only three Demon Gods spoke, the others were aware of their talk.

Paimon, after thinking for a moment, sent an army of about a hundred thousand devils to the human beings’ occupation to work with Phoenix.

That was exactly the scene that Roland and the others were seeing. A long black line stretched out on the red land at a distance from left to right, occupying the center of their vision. There was also a dark cloud in the sky.

That was the devils’ air forces, made of gargoyles, succubi, and other winged devils.

There were about twenty thousand of them.

Looking at the army of devils that was pressing close, Roland turned around and asked Solisa, “How many men do we have right now?”

“About thirty thousand.” Solisa heaved a sigh. “The players are distributed in different parts of the main plane. It takes time for them to arrive. Also, many of them are more inclined to reach above level sight before they come here, or they would be dwarfed by the devils in stats.”

Thirty thousand.

Considering a head-on clash, it would be possible to win the battle with the previous casualty rate.

UTV

But the problem was that nobody knew the overall strength of this troop of devils.

It was like how wolves and huskies looked similar and strong, but their intelligence and combat ability weren’t on the same level at all.

Nobody could tell if the hundred thousand devils would be wolves from the north. Therefore, it wouldn’t be a rational choice to fight them head-on.

“Let’s fight a guerrilla war and make use of the classical guerrilla war theories.”

Everybody nodded.

That was the right thing to do. Only idiots would charge at the enemy when they were terribly outnumbered.

“Then we’ll harass their left flank.” Solisa spoke out first. “I think we’ll be able to hold back five thousand devils.”

Everybody looked at her with admiration after she said that. It was truly unusual for a soft and cute girl to shoulder responsibility first. Besides, holding back five thousand enemies with only a hundred companions was itself a crazy task. “Then we’ll distract them in the middle lane.” Moogle shouldered the responsibility of a major guild.

“We’ll take the right flank.”

“We’ll assist Fatter Cat in the middle lane.”

“We’ll help the Phoenix Guild on the left flank.”

Very soon, all the guilds confirmed their mission. Then, the leaders of all the thirty guilds looked at Roland.

Because Schuck had returned to the Temple of Light to prepare for the crusade, Roland was responsible for F6 at this moment.

Under everybody’s watch, Roland said casually, “You fend them off first. I’ll perform my ult when the moment comes.”

Those game veterans immediately realized what Roland meant.

That was the end of the battle meeting.

The enemy would be at their door if they continued talking

Then, all the guilds set off from their temporary camps in three lines.

Thirty thousand people were a lot. They seemed rather overwhelming too.

Nevertheless, they couldn’t compare to the devils, which were more than a hundred thousand strong.

The players had gone straight to battle without any tricks now that they had decided on their strategy. The devils should’ve been confident with their large numbers, but Ryan was quite ill at ease.

From far away, he already saw that the enemies were coming at him in three lines. He frowned all the time, because he didn’t find the Mage who gave him quite a headache.

The Mage that opened a spatial crevice with one slash of his blade.

According to logic, he should stay and postpone the battle until he located the threat.

But unfortunately, he wasn’t the commander this time.

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.
