The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Puff, puff, a constant puff sounded.

The tall flame trolls were torn apart by the heavily armored infantry like inflated balloons.

However, these flame trolls did not die directly, but split into two piles of flames and stood up again as fire demons.

On the already crowded mountain road, fire demons continued to squeeze out from among the infantry.

The physical squeezing method brought serious confusion to the forward infantry, and from time to time infantry fell down the mountain.

The angels quickly took off, first protecting the infantry who fell from time to time.

However, the angels were not in a hurry to take action. These angels were used to prepare for the devil's sneak attack and they could not enter the battle prematurely.

The flame troll is divided into two, and the lava troll is divided into four. Although it does cause trouble for the forward troops, the damage is really not high.

Hoplites have firebending, resistance, and magic shields.

Whether it is a fire attack or a physical attack, the damage to them is minimal. After splitting, the level is lower and the damage is even less.

However, the casualties of the hell troops are not high. Once the fire trolls and lava trolls are killed, they will not die directly.

Secondly, even if the road to the Holy Mountain is relatively spacious, there are only a dozen or twenty troops in contact with both sides at the same time.

Even if the infantrymen don't turn into little supermen, but become real supermen, they will still cut them off one by one.

What's more, the flame trolls and lava trolls, who have special abilities and many specialization blessings, are not just meat on the chopping board, to be slaughtered by others.

The infantry's superman has a time limit. On the hillside, Xu Lai looked at the slowly advancing troops and ordered long-range troops to carry out covering strikes.

It is not easy for the shooter below to see and aim at the target above his head, but since it is a coverage strike, it does not matter whether he can hit the enemy or not.

Of course, it is impossible for tens of thousands of archers to shoot at the same time. More than 3,000 people are divided into three groups to shoot without interruption.

No need to aim, just cover the heads of the infantry and shoot as far as possible.

The arrow rain attack was very effective, but the demons in hell immediately launched a counterattack. The fireballs thrown by the fire demons from above were more likely to hit the target.

Moreover, the fire demon's fireball also has an explosive effect, and the damage to the crowd is extremely shocking.

Fortunately, the infantrymen were all wearing magic shields, so for the time being, the results of the hell battle were not yet visible.

On the contrary, the continuous rain of arrows from the archers would always hit some demons, and from time to time, some demons would scream and die.

This time, the speed of travel increased greatly, and in less than ten minutes it had quickly risen by dozens of meters.

The ratio of casualties between the two sides was even more disparate. Our side only lost dozens of infantrymen in the front row who were targeted by fire, but Hell lost hundreds of flame trolls and dozens of lava trolls.

Of course, the fire demons they split off were also killed and injured.

Even the fire demons who were supporting them were shot to death, probably more than a thousand in total.

The completely disproportionate battle also caused one's own morale to rise steadily, while Hell's morale gradually declined.

However, both sides have a lot of troops, so it is not obvious yet.

However, Xu Lai was still dissatisfied with this speed of advancement, because the further up the ramp, the narrower it became, and the fewer formations could be deployed.

The enemy's trump card unit, the 8th-level Balrogs, have not yet gone into battle. Once they continue up the steep slope, several Balrogs will be able to defeat the enemy with one man.

Relying on a group of level 5 infantry, they can break through the blockade of level 6 flame trolls and even level 7 lava trolls. Xu Lai's blessing has made everyone very satisfied.

Christine fights at the foot of the Holy Mountain every day, wondering when he can conquer the mountain.

The crowded troops at the rear were still unable to move forward to fight, and their health could only be lost in vain. This was equivalent to most of the priest's hard work being wasted.

Xu came to Haosen and asked: Is this the only way to climb Mount Novak?

Haosen shook his head and said: Of course not, but this is the pilgrimage passage to the Holy Mountain. It is the widest and best way to climb mountains.

Being able to accommodate dozens of infantrymen in parallel, it is undoubtedly the best choice for mountain climbing.

But this was too slow and Xu Lai was not satisfied.

In this case, other roads may not be suitable for the passage of large armies. Then I will ask the temple knights to dismount and climb up the mountain one after another from the path in small groups of paladin.

Haosen thought for a while and said: I have no objection, but there is no suitable platform at the trail to provide long-range fire support.

Xu Lai said: It doesn't matter, there are always casualties in battles.

The army is crowded on this mountain road. When everyone's physical strength is exhausted, they will be unable to go up or down.

This is an attack with no retreat. Xu Lai, carrying the yoke of war, has closed the battlefield.

From this point on, everyone can only enter but not get out. Once the energy is exhausted, humans will have nowhere to bury the pot and cook, and there is only death waiting for them.

Xu Lai originally wanted to give this task to the Sixth Knights, who was still his direct descendant and whom he could trust.

But Jerome, the leader of the Third Knights, took the initiative to accept this mission. The reason was that as the strongest knights present, they had not had a combat mission for a long time, so they were suitable for this kind of tough battle.

The Third Knights were also in full condition, and each of them carried a sufficient amount of healing potions. Xu Lai had nothing to offer, so he could only watch them leave and climb from various paths.

Haosen arranged for some local soldiers to lead them, and then he could only sit back and watch them disappear from sight.

There are still about 80 minutes left in the sacred prayer time. If we cannot achieve decisive results in these 80 minutes, everyone's status will drop a lot.

The knight legion of the temple, especially the third knight order, is the most elite. The leader is the 7th level paladin, and the backing is the 6th level knight.

There is no way to set up punishment and no way to charge, but with the 25% attack and defense bonus of prayer, their strength is also quite terrifying.

Percentage of attack and defense bonus. The better the foundation, the higher the bonus.

These knights are the direct line troops of the temple. They are all blessed by bishop-level priests. All attributes of each of them have increased by at least 5 points, and their offense and defense have increased by at least 30 points.

On this basis, there is also the 21-point basic attack and defense improvement of the Angel Alliance, which is increased by 25% after adding its own high attributes. The bonus has exceeded the 100 points of the infantry.

Karl, who is on the top of the mountain, is more likely to notice what is going on down the mountain.

Soon, the news that the knights had broken through the Horned Demon Overseer reached the mountains.

Those horned devil warlords who appear and disappear from time to time are the units that Karl arranged to defend various narrow paths. Although they have no special blessings, they are famous for their physical strength.

To be breached so quickly, it must be that the temple is serious.

Carl was unwilling to let those people rush to the top of the mountain, even if he had other arrangements on the top of the mountain.

But as long as humans appear on the top of the mountain, it will be a huge damage to one's own morale and a huge improvement to human morale.

Barlow, it's your turn to take action!

Balor is a Balrog, but unlike other Balrogs, Balor is a Balrog General, and his size is much larger than ordinary Balrogs.

Barlow frowned and said: There are more people on the main road. I will take my brothers and put a pestle on the main road. They will definitely not be able to get up.

Karl said: I know, but I can invest more troops on the main road.

Those heavy armored infantry are difficult to kill anyway, so I simply won’t kill them and just send the horned demons to block them.

Karl originally wanted to use this method of confrontation to quickly defeat human morale, but he did not expect that his own side would suffer much more casualties than the other side. Instead, his own morale had dropped by two or three points.

Those infantry with various status blessings are really unable to attack them. Just breaking a shield requires several fire demons to concentrate their fire.

Instead of doing this, it is better to send more horned demons with stronger defense and higher health to block the road.

As long as the humans are blocked until they are unable to attack for a long time and their morale naturally declines, then they will definitely achieve more results by counterattacking.

Seeing that he was no longer needed on the main road, Barlow followed the order and took a dozen Balrogs under his command, leading a group of trolls and rushing to various paths.

Unable to unleash their invincibility, the Paladins could only charge upwards with their shields. They had to use their lives to withstand attacks from fire trolls, lava trolls, and even Balrogs.

Fireballs that were terrifying, some even bigger than their bodies, fell down.

Fortunately, these fireballs are elemental damage and have no physical weight. Otherwise, the Paladin would not be able to withstand it for long no matter how powerful it is when it falls from the sky.

However, the Paladin, who had a stronger physique and a stronger magic shield, continued to climb up despite the huge fireballs.

The attack came from above their heads. As long as they raised their magic shields above their heads, both the horned demons on both sides and the fireballs above their heads could be blocked.

The knights behind him were holding long spears and stabbing the governors on both sides.

The paladin in the front row, holding a shield in one hand, used his body to resist the warlord in front, while holding a sword to fight back through the gap in the shield.

Paladins are already known for their defense, and now their shortcomings in attack and attack speed have been greatly strengthened.

One by one the warlords fell down, while the knights on the paths were climbing higher and higher. Soon the knights everywhere had surpassed the infantry on the main slope.

The horned demons in a defensive posture were ordered not to attack at all. They were more durable in passive defense and could take at least two to three hits.

Moreover, there were so many of them, and they rushed from top to bottom, carrying gravitational potential. Even if they kept falling, it would be difficult for the infantry to move forward.

On the contrary, on the small road, although the governors who blocked the road were of higher rank, they could only come one by one because of the narrow road.

The knights can continue to climb up through the gap between the death of the warlord.

It was after discovering this situation that Karl changed his defense target and let the biggest ace Balrog follow him.

The Barro Fire Demon who arrived directly squeezed away the warlord in front, and rushed to the front in person with a giant hammer.

The Balrogs are mixed with flames. In addition to allowing nearby units to continuously suffer fire damage, they also have an additional feature called melee form.

In this form, they will temporarily lose their long-range capabilities, evolve into a spiked shell with flames, and gain a solid hammer made of hell lava. (End of chapter)
