Chapter 240: An Army of Abyss Demons

Chapter 240: An Army of Abyss Demons

The fully prepared army immediately advanced.

However, this time, they did not retreat. Instead, they continued to follow the ancient passage and marched towards the underground city of the karst cave at a uniform speed.

Although they had stayed in the gloomy and cold ancient passage for close to 12 hours, the soldiers did not complain at all. They maintained their high morale and followed the advancing Swadian heavy calvary.

From the temporary camp they were in to the underground city’s karst cave, there was still a 6-hour journey.

This was the time the cavalry needed to ride their horses and run.

If they were to walk, it would take them 18 hours if they multiplied it by three times.

In other words, from the temple ruins at the foot of the mountain to the karst underground city that Kant found, even if there was a neat road that was almost entirely paved with stone slabs that could support the rapid march, it would take them a full 24 hours to walk, it was a whole day’s time, and the journey was extremely long!

It was almost comparable to the distance from the oasis lookout to the Stone Pass.

After all, the environment of the Nahrin Desert was cruel.

It was very hot at noon, so they could not go out, and they could not move forward in the cold of the night.

The soft layer of the outer layer of the desert had indirectly slowed down the speed of the march. Therefore, from the oasis lookout to the Stone Pass, even riding a horse would take three days and four nights, and even if they sped up the chase, it would take about three days.

Kant rode his horse in front of them, looking very grim.

The worry about the journey was secondary.

It was mainly the Hell Demons.

They were about to enter the area where the underground city of the Karst Cave was located. He could arrange for his troops to rest temporarily.

However, the next attack on the Hell Demons would require a strict battle plan.

After all, Kant and his troops had never had any real communication with such mythical creatures. They did not even know the hell demons of this world at all.

Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

Kant and the others did not know the fighting method and style of the Hell Demons.

How could they ensure victory?

The enemies they had met before, the Advanced Jackalan of the Kingdom of Grey Mane, could be used as super heavy human rapid reaction infantry. Although the name was a bit awkward, they could still be treated according to the conventional fighting style, even if it was to arrange tactics, they could think through the enhanced version of humans and make targeted arrangements.

It was even simpler for demonized creatures. Whether it was the inferior version, the ordinary species, or the terrifying savage species, they could be treated as the enhanced version of beasts, and they could still be dealt with using the conventional battle methods.

However, Hell Demons were different.

The six-meter-tall dark-red body seemed to contain the flames of hell. There were also countless scars on its huge and sturdy chest, forming a war badge that represented honor.

As it roared, a strong wind with the smell of sulfur appeared out of nowhere.

A terrifying power spread.

Even though it had been sealed for thousands of years and was extremely weak, it still had this power. It was completely in line with the image of the Devil Kant had obtained from movies and literature in his previous life.

A devil from hell that was so terrifying that it was difficult for ordinary people to describe!

Now that he thought about it.

Kant’s heart was still beating rapidly.

His heart was pumping to supply his blood to his entire body, and his hormones were being secreted rapidly.

A normal battle strategy would not be suffice in a fight with a devil from hell.

This was what he thought. He turned his head and looked behind him. Rhodoks’s infantrymen and the Ravenston Archers, who had a determined and high morale, actually sighed in their hearts.

He did not know whether it was right or wrong for him to lead his team to the Underground City of the karst cave to attack that Hell Demon.

But since he had already made up his mind.

Then Kant would no longer regret it, because regret was useless!

“We can only go all out!”

Kant muttered softly.

In the dark tunnel, only two torches were lit in front and behind.

The troops were marching, and the soldiers walked out in a neat formation. Clanging sounds echoed in the tunnel.

Under the leadership of Lord Kant, no one was afraid.

Dying on the battlefield was also an honor.

After nearly 30 hours of trekking and a short break in the middle, they finally arrived at the location of the karst cave after defeating several groups of Dauntless magic creatures.

The faint moss and fluorescent mushrooms brought a veil-like light.

The buried city was faintly visible.

The troops stopped moving forward and camped in the ancient passage. As the bonfire was lit and the food and water were heated, they needed to take a short rest to replenish their strength so that they would not be too tired from the long journey and would not be able to continue fighting, this would lead to the collapse of the battle situation.

This was a fact. Any troops that had traveled a long distance would hide themselves for a short rest before launching a surprise attack or a charge. After relieving the tiredness of the long journey, they would have sufficient strength to deal with the following battle.

History had also left behind many similar results.

However, it was not a victory.

The troops that had traveled a long distance had completely exhausted their strength because they were directly thrown into battle. This led to the collapse of the front lines, the collapse of the troops, and the loss of the crucial battle.

Examples were everywhere.

Kant would not make such a low-level mistake.

At the same time, Bandake, who was an experienced captain, would not make such a mistake.

The warm porridge was drunk into the soldiers’ stomachs.

In addition, the soft and crisp toast and the savory and delicious air-dried meat were good helpers to replenish their strength.

Of course, there were also date palm candies.

After eating and drinking their fill, many soldiers stood up and did some exercise. Their originally cold bodies gradually warmed up. After half an hour of digestion and rest, they were all ready and quietly waited for Kant’s order.

Bandake held the siege crossbow and looked at Kant with a similarly solemn expression.

“Let’s go.”

Kant spoke in a low voice and urged his horse to lead the way forward.

The troops behind immediately followed. The sound of footsteps and the sound of hooves hitting the ground continued to appear. With the increasingly bright glimmer, they officially entered the karst cave and came to a flat square paved with stone slabs. A kilometer ahead was the towering underground city, and the city wall that had been destroyed by the hell demons.

The subterranean river by the side was in the shape of a circular arc. Based on the initial flow direction to the west, it then flowed to the southwest. It just happened to bypass the square by the side and go deep into the mountain rocks of the karst cave.

At that time, Kant had not looked carefully.

Only now did he realize that there was still an ancient passage beside the subterranean river.

It was as if this karst cave and the underground city were only the nodes between the subterranean river and the passage. In the deepest south of the mountain range, there were even deeper regions, or even more underground cities.

However, Kant frowned slightly.

To the south of the Senwaya range was the Dukedom of Leo.

According to the village “Aaron” on the west side of the Stone Pass, going straight west for a day and a night, it just happened to be within the range of the eastern prefectural territory. If they really continued to move south, for example, now, according to the infantry marching on the flat passage for a day and a night, they would probably be able to reach the territory of the eastern county. They might even be able to cross the Senwaya Range and reach the eastern county directly. It might even be possible.

Now was not the time to think about this. Kant waved his hand, and all the troops immediately formed up and pushed forward through the gap in the city wall. They only stopped when they were close to 800 meters away.

Because of the gap, the six-meter-tall hell demon reappeared.

“Human.”

It slowly opened its mouth, and from its nose-like nostrils, it spewed out sparks of anger. A violent and crazy power spread throughout the entire karst cave, as well as its suppressed anger. “You led your troops here, it really makes me curious. Do you want to…” It said, its eyes opened in anger, filled with brutality. “Take revenge on me?”

“Huff, huff, huff –” A violent wind instantly appeared, and a thick smell of sulfur spread throughout the entire karst cave. The numerous infantry and cavalry soldiers who were still in formation immediately became restless, and some even took half a step or two back.

However, it was this retreating step that completely messed up the formation of the entire formation, making it look chaotic.

“Damn it!”

Kant gritted his teeth. He was also slightly frightened when facing the strong wind that was filled with the smell of sulfur.

It was a fear that suddenly appeared from the bottom of his heart!

Even the Swadian heavy calvary, as well as Kant’s Warhorse that was still standing, actually let out a slight neigh after experiencing the strong wind that was filled with fear. Their limbs swayed, and they almost wanted to collapse to the ground, it was as if they had been frightened by a terrifying beast!

Just a roar that was close to scolding actually stirred up a gust of wind, scaring many of the soldiers. Even the warhorse became weak and could not stand steadily on its four hooves, swaying as it let out a mournful cry.

However, in an instant.

As if feeling that the morale of the troops was instantly reduced, the red-bottomed golden lion directly fluttered in the wind.

[ intimidation ] was immediately activated.

The flag fluttered even though there was no wind.

The Golden Lion on the flag started to flutter as if it was communicating with the color of the flag of the red-bottomed Golden Lion on the linen robes of the soldiers and the paint of the red-bottomed golden lion on the shield, the golden color became brighter and brighter.

“Hu Hu hu –”

The red-bottomed Golden Lion was fluttering!

The soldiers, who had retreated out of fear, regained their senses. The armored warhorse, which had been frightened to the point that its legs had gone limp, also became excited. All of them stood up and returned to their original appearance.

“Oh, it actually recovered so quickly under my pressure.”

The Hell Fiend laughed sinisterly in a low voice.

However, the brutality and madness in its eyes contained a hint of fear. “But what can you do even if you recover? For thousands of years, the power I released has already eroded a large number of seals. The entire underground city has long become my demon incubator. Now, I’ll let you humans experience the demon army that once fought against the gods!”

“Roar –”

A roar sounded out as dark red figures appeared behind the 10-meter tall city wall. They walked out of the ruins of the city wall and lined up in the square outside.

“An army of Hell Demons?”

Kant’s eyes were filled with shock, but he was stunned when he saw the troop class.

He felt that the troop class looked familiar and quickly brought them into a game in his previous life. He could not help but whisper, “Devil Child, Long Horned Demon, that huge Hell Demon, could it be… an Abyss Demon? !”
