Ferocious battles were erupting constantly along the Jebel Theocracy's borders. On some sections of the mechanical legion's battle line, there were no longer enough Purifier 0-1 units to fill the front ranks.
Purger 0-3 took over the burden of melee combat, fighting demons of every size, while Purger 0-4 specifically targeted the monstrously huge demons to keep them from using their massive bodies to smash through the already fragile defensive line.
Why was Cheng Yu's legion struggling more and more as the battle went on?
Through the Satellite's view, Cheng Yu could just barely make out a group of identical-looking demons in black robes casting some kind of spell around the Abyssal Gate.
They had the appearance of traditional demons: two horns, dark red skin, wings on their backs, and slender, dark red tails.
Reading the system's information gave Cheng Yu a headache.
"A branch of Demon Warlocks, Demon Corruption Warlocks are indispensable to the Abyss's invasions of other planes. They typically gather around an Abyssal Gate, channeling the aura of the Abyss to corrupt the plane's land. Demons gain a home-field advantage on corrupted land, receiving comprehensive boosts to their attack, defense, speed, and regeneration. As time passes, the corruption grows deeper, and the demons' home-field buffs become increasingly terrifying."
That was why Cheng Yu had such a headache. The enemy kept growing stronger, while his own forces remained unchanged. Wouldn't they inevitably lose at this rate?
Fortunately, the Enabler legion and the Annihilator legion had arrived...
Sure enough, as the Enabler 0-1 units drifted through the legion, their two short mechanical tendrils constantly swayed at a specific frequency.
Then Cheng Yu saw the ground, which had begun turning red, stop changing. It didn't turn blackish red and emit ominous red mist like the land near the Abyssal Gate.
