Chapter 923: Seizing the Door (Part 1)

The battle has reached a critical moment.

Yeenoghu used the seawater in the Cursed Throat to break through the scorching outer defenses of Beit City in one fell swoop, and then used the fleet of the "Man-Eater King" Malagas Unos to rush into the city.

These "two axes" really caught Pharaoh Mako by surprise. However, the city of Beit was a majestic city after all, and Medici's army was not all useless waste.

Moreover, the opening time of the "Gathering Door" is also limited. When this treasure is temporarily closed again due to exhaustion of energy, the flood will no longer be as brave as before.

The first batch of fleets that rushed into the city, after flooding dozens of cities and towns, were stranded one after another on the "artificial reefs" composed of pavilions and pavilions throughout the city.

Wu Nuosi could only lead his men and rush off the battleship, transforming from pirates into bandits on land. However, they wanted to rob and kill the wealthy families in the city, but they encountered desperate resistance from the other side.

For example, the "Cannibal King" took the lead and used the tall mast of the "Reaper" to swing into a large house with a high courtyard wall of more than ten yards. He was immediately hit by several mages.

The various "curses" he cast - his agility, strength and even physique were temporarily weakened. Facing more than a hundred warriors with swords and axes swarming towards him, he was lucky enough not to be chopped into pieces.

"Resist these evil spirits and guard the Bella family's house!" The warriors roared one after another. It turned out that the "Man-Eater King" accidentally flew into Bella Bey's house.

Fortunately, Wu Nuosi's armor was strong enough and he was not hacked to death by those warriors. However, the other pirates who followed him across the sea did not have such good luck, and they all fell to the ground and turned into boxes.

The pirates who did not fly across with cables used shields to protect their heads and crouched at the foot of the wall. A heavy rain of missile weapons attacked them: crossbow bolts, pitch cans, stones and flintlock bullets slammed into their shields.

Amidst the occasional crackling sounds of shields, the pirates desperately used axes, swords, wooden sticks, iron bars and pickaxes... to hit the bluestone courtyard gate until they carved out a passage for people to pass through.

Big hole.

From the cave, they could catch a glimpse of a large group of enemies inside, surrounding and killing the legendary captain Unus. They hesitated for a moment. There was no need to doubt the loyalty of the cannibal fleet, and after rounding off, it was basically nothing.

Seeing the hesitation of his subordinates, Wu Nuoshi naturally understood what they were thinking: it was nothing more than "a dead captain is a good captain", "captains take turns to come to my house tomorrow", "one more Wu Nuoshi is not much

One is not enough"...

"A bunch of bastards!" Wu Nuoshi secretly cursed in his heart. Taking advantage of the time he gained by killing the two enemies in front of him, he quickly put his palms into the human skin pocket on his waist and inserted his fingers into a hunting bear with sharp teeth.

The clip allows it to suck blood.

This is a magical artifact. With it, Unos can control the "Reaper" from a long distance. The ship of chaos, which looked shabby and had its sides covered with demon skin, also responded immediately.

The cannon reversed direction.

"Bang!"

The giant cannon opened fire, and energy shells composed of pure chaos struck behind the group of pirates who were hesitant to move forward.

A few unlucky guys were affected by the sputtering chaotic energy. Some of them were blown into pieces, some were corroded into a pool of blood, and some were turned into moray eels...

The consequences vary.

"Go rescue the captain", "Hold on, Master Wunuoshi", "Don't hurt my family"... After receiving the warning, the quick-thinking pirates immediately shouted slogans and rushed forward.

They fought fiercely with the warriors from the Bella family in the courtyard of Bey's mansion. The pressure on Unos, who was trapped among the family warriors, was greatly reduced, and he quickly broke out of the siege. The legendary ship

The captain did not bother to beat the group of men who had their own evil intentions, but hurriedly asked the dark wizard on board to help him remove those "curses".



What Unos encountered was not a special case. Other captains of the cannibal fleet followed the Flend Gnoll army that rushed into Bait City, the undead army driven by the Abyss Ghouls, and the Abyss Demons.

The various tanar'ri demons that evolved from the original demons that emerged from the Qi transformation all fell into the vast ocean of mass war.

"After all, this is the capital of the Medici Empire in the Ash World. It has been a business partner with the Eternal Scale Chamber of Commerce for so long. There are countless wealthy families." Various situations that happened in the city were all reflected in the circular bell tower of the Grand Bazaar.

Namen from the dome looked in his eyes and said, "Pharaoh Mako is so unlucky. A good deck of cards would be beaten like this."

In his opinion, in the face of the invasion of Yeenoghu's army, the Pharaoh King Makou, who had been praised by his ministers and nobles since he was a child as having "the qualities of a hero", made several big mistakes in a row:

First, it was too presumptuous. We knew clearly that the enemy was the legion of the Abyss, but we did not launch a city-wide resistance immediately, but only relied on the strength of the defenders.

Second, since you have confidence in your own military strength - which is indeed the case, excluding the fact that there is an incarnation of a god sitting in charge, the number and weapon level of Beit's defenders are really far superior to those of the Jackal Legion - in the city

To be punctual, one should set up a battle formation outside the city, rely on the fire support on the city wall to proactively engage in a decisive battle with the enemy, and not give him time to implement various conspiracies and tricks, leaving him breathless.

Third, as mentioned before, if you want to practice the "art of command" commonly used by the Baatezu devils, you shouldn't be petty and just smash the city wall and build it again. Doesn't the Medici Empire not have this strength? It can be wiped out in one fell swoop.

The enemy has a large amount of military strength, which shocks the enemy's psychology, and then destroys the opponent's main force in one go. The victory is now established. We have to drag out the abyss demon to compete with exhaustion and death.

"The key now is the gate in front of the Palace of Ox and Lion," Namen immediately made a judgment in his mind as he looked at the Golden Palace in the distance, which symbolized the authority of the Pharaoh. The so-called "Palace of Ox and Lion", in fact,

The only thing left is the entrance to the inner city with the bronze bull and stone lion sculptures, and there is the last position in Beit City that can be defended.

Moreover, Namen also knew that fifty years ago, the previous Pharaoh, Essindor, had shown great power there. With the assistance of Ques and Daweishuer, he forcibly defeated the Worm Lord, who was also a demon lord.

The incarnation of the king. For many big families that have been passed down for many years, which

Afraid that the current situation would be unfavorable, they did not flee hastily and insisted on wrestling with the evil spirits in the bottomless abyss. This was because they all remembered the battle in front of the Ox and Lion Palace fifty years ago - if the Makou could not hold this place, then Beit

The confidence of all the forces in the city will then disappear.

"That door is the key..."

Namen's eyes were blazing. Although the order he received was to weaken the strength of the Beit City defenders and escalate the war quickly, Ques also told him not to interfere in the war at this point.

Just when he was thinking about something, a strange noise suddenly came from behind him. At some point, a giant eagle demon had stared at him, the "bystander" who had climbed up and looked far away, and lurked behind him, and now stretched out a sharp weapon.

Its sharp claws launched a deadly sneak attack.

With a thought in his mind, the Contract Demon's contract barrier was about to be activated, and dozens of scrolls were about to fly out from his robe. However, someone thought faster than him——

"upbraid!"

With a light scolding, the body of the giant vulture demon suddenly suffocated, and then a flash of sword light flashed like a horse. This enhanced version of the vulture demon blessed by secret methods was directly cut into pieces starting from the skull with a scimitar.

The two parts were evenly divided and quickly fell to the ground and turned into pulp.
