268. Spirit Torch
The only time the frost surge encountered difficulty was when it was approaching the fortress.
The winter wolf rushing at the front didn't realize what was happening. It jumped into the area illuminated by Spirit Torch.
In an instant, the winter wolf seemed to have been hit by something solid, and exploded like a piercing. Blood and flesh spattered, and translucent ice-like bones fell to the ground.
The winter wolves came one after another.
More winter wolves were killed by the brilliance of Spirit Torch, but more and more winter wolves followed.
The flesh and blood were frozen Shana, forming a brilliant forest of ice, but this did not stop the winter wolf from moving forward.
The silver wave became much sparser, but it was still approaching.
These Spirit Torch lights form another silver boundary line, slightly containing the wave of frost.
If there were not those mages as firewood to ignite Spirit Torch, I am afraid that the impact of these monsters alone would be enough to collapse the frontline fortress, and humans would be unable to resist this rolling torrent.
Lu Ban's first reaction was an insect swarm invasion from a science fiction movie.
But these monsters are far more terrifying than the swarm.
When the vanguard of the frost was less than a kilometer away from the Black Castle, the Rangerss released the second round of slings.
The huge Stone split in mid-air and turned into countless tiny Stone.
These Stone turned into golden raindrops and fell on the heads of the winter wolves who entered the radiation range of Spirit Torch.
Almost instantly, the winter wolves stopped advancing. Their bodies were pierced, and their flesh stained the frozen forest red, and quickly solidified.
But the winter wolf from behind rushed up again.
Under the absolute advantage of numbers, even resistance seems Pale.
"Mage, follow me."
Inside the Black Castle, a mage summoned a dozen mages and rushed towards the dome.
On the observation deck, an invisible barrier lit up around the mages, blocking the wind, snow and cold. They stood behind the stone platform and raised their hands.
The air in the palm of the hand was distorted visually due to the powerful force, and the buzzing sound caused by air friction sounded all around. As the sound became louder and louder, the later winter wolf also approached within 800 meters of the fortress.
Then, something invisible was thrown from the hands of the mages.
In the blink of an eye Kung Fu, the invisible thing crossed a distance of 800 meters and burst out on the ground.
Boom boom boom boom——
A huge explosion sounded on the ground, and mushroom clouds rose up, crushing more winter wolves into minced meat, and even the complete bones could not be seen.
Amidst the continuous explosions, the master of Demon Tide howled again.
At the same time, Lu Ban noticed that something was crawling in the shadows of the winter wolves.
It is the eternal night, accompanied by the frost, approaching together.
The speed of those shadows is faster than that of winter wolves. Although they will fall apart under the irradiation of Spirit Torch, they flexibly use the shadows formed by trees and winter wolf corpses, as well as the smoke formed by explosions, to move towards the fortress at high speed.
When Frost's vanguard was five hundred meters away from the fortress, the longbowmen fired arrows ignited with spell flames.
The arrow fell to the ground and immediately formed a barrier of flames.
These flames are obviously different from ordinary flames. They are difficult to extinguish even under the low temperature of frost. The winter wolf spread by the flames quickly loses its center of gravity and falls, becoming the fuel of the wall of fire.
But there are too many winter wolves.
At one point, Lu Ban felt that even if weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear bombs were used to clear the ground, there might not be any way to completely eliminate these winter wolves and resist Demon Tide.
There are simply too many.
I'm afraid only the extermination order in science fiction works can completely defeat it by turning the entire forest and Night Country into scorched earth.
If he had not faced such a desperate situation, perhaps Night Country would not have adopted such a strategy, using countless mages as firewood just to survive for a moment.
What's even more terrifying is that this is just one of the twelve Demon Tide.
"The superposition of Demon Tide represents a more serious problem."
Jonah In the hall, he looked solemnly at his colleagues who were burning out, and sighed.
"Different Demon Tide are monsters under different evil gods, and they are naturally hostile. This is why there will always be only one Demon Tide attack before, because even if two Demon Tide appear at the same time, they will first internally consume before reaching the boundary of Black Forest, and eventually only one will remain."
"But it's different now."
Lu Ban Sees that even though they have suffered various blows, the number of winter wolves has not decreased, and their surging momentum has not weakened at all. It is difficult not to feel despair.
"Different Demon Tide can coexist, which either means that those evil gods have begun to cooperate, or it means that a winner has been decided among them."
Jonah said the worst possible outcome.
Just as the weirdness of Lu Ban's world begins to gradually appear, affecting people's real lives, the Demon Tide of Night Country are also evolving. In the end, perhaps those gods will become one. By that time, the twelve Demon Tides will arrive at the same time, which will be the real end of Night Country.
In the distance, a glow has gone out.
Lu Ban's [True Sight] shows the details of the fall of the fortress.
The winter wolves broke through Spirit Torch's protection. Those winter wolves as tall as small buildings froze the air with just their breath, destroying the magic barrier of the fortress. Then, although the Rangerss resisted, compared to the vast number of winter wolves, these resistances were powerless.
In less than three minutes, there was no movement in the entire fortress.
Suddenly, at the moment when the light of Spirit Torch went out, a sun rose.
It was the most brilliant sun that Lu Ban had ever seen. The golden light gave people hope and warmth, and reminded people of all the beautiful things.
All the winter wolves, the shadows of the eternal night, fell apart under the sunlight. Scorching Heat that exceeded the radiation range of Spirit Torch descended, flickered, and then went out.
"That's Eternal Blazing Sun. When the fortress fell, they didn't hesitate. They activated the spell directly and ignited themselves as raw materials to create such an effect."
Jonah closed his eyes as if praying.
The Winter Wolf has arrived within three hundred meters of the Black Castle's defense circle.
The crossbow arrows fell like raindrops, which could only slightly reduce the momentum of Demon Tide. In less than ten seconds, the front line of Demon Tide would collide head-on with the Black Castle!
There are more than one crossbowman standing in front of all the windows of the Black Castle. The mage on the dome continues to cast spells, but it is like a child throwing a fist in front of a tsunami. It can only cause waves to surge, but there is no way to stop them.
Like a slow-playing silent movie, the silvery frost Demon Tide hits Black Fortress, causing the overall trend to stagnate.
The whole fortress shook.
Jonah clenched his fists and looked to his side.
But Lu Ban has disappeared.
