Chapter 617 - 617: The Demon Attacks Again, Alice Makes Her Move
The intelligence of the five orc regiments mobilizing in a mighty procession quickly reached the Elf command post. Theodore marked their advance route on the map, complemented by the continuous stream of casualty reports coming from the front lines.
Soon, they sensed something and couldn’t help but nod.
“It seems that the forces of the Islanders have already taken action.”
But there was not much joy in their eyes.
Although they still held the orcs back from landing on the coastline and had ample strategic resources, the enemy was not limited to just orcs; there were also demons that made him uneasy.
Demons belonged to the chaotic divine lineage, a race and species with a small number but high average combat power.
A demon of the same tier could take on five Elf warriors. According to the intelligence, there were at least two demon armies with tens of thousands of troops, and demon heroes in the double digits participating in this war.
However, up to this point, except for the demon hunter sent earlier to assassinate him, no other demons had appeared on the battlefield. This made him wary.
What were those demons up to?
Theodore touched his chin as he looked at the map, his eyes filled with contemplation.
Suddenly, he caught sight of position 58, and it reminded him of the previous attempt on his life by the demon hunter. His face turned pale.
Not good! Those demons might be trying to assassinate Lord Islander!
Although the legendary-tier demon hunter had lost an arm, he did not believe that the demon’s combat capability had been completely compromised. Demons were known for their resilience, and realizing the great threat the Islanders posed to the orc army, the demon heroes might launch a full-scale assault using the demon hunter’s teleportation ability!
Lord Islander was a Divine Patron and must not die here!
“Communications officer! Hurry to position 58 and inform Lord Islander to be on guard against a demon ambush!”
At position 58, another wave of landing barbaric orcs and minotaurs was effortlessly slaughtered by the Naga Guardians and Blue Dragon Blood Murlocs. The faces of Tian Shu and his group were relaxed, showing a sense of satisfaction.
Was this what it felt like to be carried through a dungeon by a high-level player? It was incredibly enjoyable!
The orcs that had given them such a hard time earlier now fell like wheat before the scythe, one after another. The colossal barbaric beasts that were as tall as a two-story building and could flatten a fortress were easily taken down by three powerful heroes within seconds of landing.
On the beach, several thousand orc corpses were piled up densely within a hundred meters of the front lines. Anyone who didn’t know better might think they were playing some kind of amphibious landing game, mowing down the enemy like cutting wheat with a machine gun, and the enemies just fell down.
At this moment, Tian Shu noticed that a dense fleet of landing craft suddenly appeared on the sea surface in the distance, heading straight toward them. In the sky, a dark cloud formed as hundreds of sharp-beaked wyverns emitted piercing cries and flew towards them.
The mouths of these sharp-beaked wyverns were like two serrated longswords, and when they closed, they turned into sharp cleavers. Countless elves and human warriors had been torn in half by their mouths.
Just as the orc riders urged the sharp-beaked wyverns to fly towards the coast, over a hundred figures in Sea Crystal Wyrms suddenly plummeted from the clouds. They had mouths filled with crystalline saw-like teeth, and beams of light shot down suddenly, piercing through the sharp-beaked wyverns like tearing through paper. The result was large holes in the sharp-beaked wyverns’ heads, but not a drop of blood flowed out; the wounds had already been sealed shut by the high temperature.
Three pairs of Sea Crystal Wyrms trembled slightly in mid-air and descended from high above. Their limbs carried terrifying power that instantly tore apart the bodies of the sharp-beaked wyverns and orc riders, scattering limbs and broken arms everywhere.
A hundred-unit team of Sea Crystal Wyrms flew into the midst of the thousand-strong group of sharp-beaked wyverns, recklessly tearing through fragile flesh with their beams and claws, demonstrating the might of their sixth-tier class.
In just over ten minutes, this group of sharp-beaked wyverns was completely wiped out by the Sea Crystal Wyrms. The Sea Crystal Wyrms w^ere not satisfied with just these achievements. They dove down once again, wielding the scythes of death against the orcs sitting in the landing craft.
The orcs aboard the landing craft watched in panic as the Sea Crystal Wyrms fell from the sky towards them, desperately trying to jump off the landing craft.
How strong was the impact of an object the size of a small truck plummeting from the sky like a meteor?
The Sea Crystal Wyrms directly smashed the landing craft, creating a semi-circular crater with the impact point at its center. Initially, the orcs w^ere pushed into the water, but they w^ere then lifted by another even stronger force, along with water columns several tens of meters high, into the air.
Ji Chen nodded as he witnessed this scene.
The destructive powder of this headbutt was no less impressive than the beam attacks, and it looked even more intimidating.
The Sea Crystal Wyrms emerged from the w^ater unscathed, while the orcs floated lifelessly, continuously being targeted by beam shots and body impacts. Some landing craft couldn’t even get close to the shore before being destroyed. Such massive casualties made even the fearless orcs reconsider their choices.
They w^ere not afraid of death, but dying without achieving anything was utterly pointless!
At this moment, black dots appeared in the distant sky once again.
Tian Shu and the others exclaimed, “Watch out, Lord Islander! Those are Stormwing Wyverns, the orc’s sixth-tier airborne units!”
Ji Chen squinted his eyes slightly.
There were over a hundred of these massive creatures, each with wings fully extended, spanning more than ten meters. Their broad wings and membranes looked like giant flying plates in the sky. The Stormwing Wyverns w^ere nearly the same size as the Sea Crystal Wyrms and appeared even more ferocious..
