C942 Decisive Battle of Life and Death
In order to prevent the Precipice Devil from having the advantage in numbers, Jaffy Linda bet all her chips on these high strength siege equipment.
These tools were originally used to attack and defend the castle, but their lethality and penetrative power were all very strong. Furthermore, when Jaffy Linda brought this Lunar Clan Army out of the Worryfree Palace, she had also deliberately prepared enough magic ammunition.
According to Jaffy Linda's estimation, as long as the Precipice Devil dared to break through the outer barrier, those high intensity attack equipment would definitely be of great use.
Jaffy Linda's plan was to let these high intensity siege equipment cause a considerable amount of damage to the Precipice Devil, causing them to gradually lose their will to attack the medium camp.
At this time, when Jaffy Linda saw that the Precipice Devil was actually constructing the man-ladder, she knew clearly in her heart that her plan to make the archer tower use its greatest resistance had failed.
Precipice Devil's first target was the Arrow Tower.
Those large siege equipment did not have the ability to attack from a distance. Jaffy Linda would not be stupid enough to waste magical ammunition when facing against a group of Precipice Devil that were a hundred meters away.
The human ladder formed from the Precipice Devil quickly formed. After some slow adjustments, the ladder was finally erected, reaching a height of more than ten meters.
Jaffy Linda's heart sank, and she immediately shouted: "All the arrow towers aim for the Precipice Devil s. Once they enter the range, fire immediately."
Upon hearing Jaffy Linda's order, all the archers immediately aimed their large siege equipment at the erected escalators.
At this moment, more than a dozen of people's ladders had been erected around the camp, gradually forming a ring around it.
The escalator was several tens of meters high, and it started swaying as it headed towards the archer tower.
After a brief period of silence, an arrow tower in the northeast corner of the city was the first to open fire.
A gray and yellow sphere dragged out a long tail of flame and smashed towards the human ladder that was less than a hundred meters ahead of them.
Due to the lack of range, the gray yellow ball smashed into a spot about two to three meters away from the human ladder, but taking advantage of the momentum of the ball, it continued to roll forward, and suddenly scattered the Precipice Devil s at the bottom of the human ladder.
Losing the support from the ground, the ladder rapidly fell forward.
However, in the middle of the campsite, Jaffy Linda's eyes widened at the same time.
Because she saw that the moment those ladders fell, they intertwined with each other …
The Precipice Devil at the upper half of the tail was borrowing this force to leap. Its entire body drew a long arc in the air as it landed, and the place where it landed was actually inside the camp.
Inwardly, she thought, this was bad. Jaffy Linda immediately shouted out loudly, "Quick, archers, do not let the Precipice Devil fall from the sky. Shoot them all! Shoot them all!"
The soldiers in the center of the camp were the only ones with ranged attacks. At this time, after hearing Jaffy Linda's shout, he quickly picked up the bow in his hand and shot towards the Precipice Devil that had fallen from the sky.
With a series of whooshing sounds, the Precipice Devil in the air was pierced with bows and arrows all over. When it landed on the ground, it had already died a long time ago.
However, at this moment, Jaffy Linda also saw that more and more of the escalators had started to head straight towards the archers' tower.
Some of the ladders were hit by the large siege equipment, while the Precipice Devil only had the upper half of the ladders. As for the other people, they had already entered the close range of the Arrow Tower. Once they fell down, the Precipice Devil at the top part would immediately fall into the Arrow Tower.
Once they fell into the arrow tower, many of the Lunar Clan soldiers who did not react in time, would become targets for the Precipice Devil to slaughter without any suspense.
Jaffy Linda's face was filled with nervousness as she watched the battle unfold in front of her with rapt attention.
A Precipice Devil that had rushed into an arrow tower had actually ripped apart a Lunar Clan soldier's body, and then, a long, fishy red tongue stuck out of its mouth. The reverse thorns on the tongue licked half of the Lunar Clan soldier's body in an extremely short period of time.
Yue Ru, who was beside Jaffy Linda, trembled when she saw this scene.
Yueru was not afraid of war itself. However, the fact that she directly devoured the body of the Lunar Clansman made Yue Ru feel a wave of disgust and grief.
After a long while, Yue Ru could no longer hold it in. With a shout, she pulled out her sword from her waist and rushed towards the Precipice Devil above the archer tower.
Jaffy Linda stood in the middle of the camp and slowly closed her eyes.
At this time, in the center of the No Mans Land, the camp constructed by the Lunar Clan soldiers were only a small boat floating in the ocean.
No matter what race it was, a sumptuous meal was extremely attractive.
The one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers of the Lunar Clan just happened to become a feast for a lot more Precipice Devil.
Even if the Precipice Devil sacrificed a portion of their own strength, they would still eat up the entire Lunar Clan Faction.
This was the power of the creature itself. No one could stop it.
A quarter of an hour later, Jaffy Linda slowly opened her eyes. Not far in front of him, there were at least five to six arrow towers that had collapsed.
There were also gaps in the barrier that were dozens of meters away.
The soldiers who were guarding the center area and the archers had already started fighting their way up, slashing all the Precipice Devil that had rushed in. In the end, however, more and more Precipice Devil rushed in.
At this moment, Yue Ru, who had killed her way through this bloody mess, returned to Jaffy Linda's side. She said in a sad voice, "Sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on."
Jaffy Linda still did not move. With a slight movement of her arm, a gigantic Longsword appeared in her right hand. Jaffy Linda said softly, "Yue Ru, if you still recognize me as your sister, you can leave with the army." I'll open up a path for you guys. Even if you lose thirty percent of your people, at least seventy percent of you will still be able to survive. "
At this point, Jaffy Linda gritted her teeth and continued, "If you don't recognize me as your sister, I'll fight to the death today."
As she finished speaking, Jaffy Linda held onto the Longsword in her hands and rushed forward to meet the dozens of Precipice Devil who were breaking through the barrier with an extremely fast speed. As their gigantic swords flew through the air, they had already minced more than ten Precipice Devil s into minced meat.
Seeing Jaffy Linda display her godly might, Yue Ru also raised the thin sword in her hand and charged forward.
The two sisters, one on the left and one on the right, charged into the group of Precipice Devil s as if they were fighting in a deserted area. But no matter if it was Jaffy Linda or Yue Ru, the two of them knew that it was impossible to kill all the Precipice Devil in front of them as there was an endless number of them and they had gathered even more.
To a certain extent, this pair of twin sisters were purely betting on who would kill more Precipice Devil.
An hour later, the campsite that the Lunar Clan soldiers had set up was now riddled with holes, and had lost all meaning of defense.
At the center of the camp, the soldiers who fought with their bows and arrows had long since wielded their weapons and started fighting with the Precipice Devil s that blotted out the sky.
As for the one hundred and fifty thousand strong Lunar Clan, they had already lost at least thirty thousand.
From a high vantage point, the Lunar Clan soldiers' campsite looked like an island in a vast ocean, while its surroundings were shockingly a sea of red.
At first, the No Mans Land surrounded the campsite with only a few hundred thousand Precipice Devil. However, with the spread of information and the progress of the battle, even further Precipice Devil had already gathered here.
Jaffy Linda might not have counted, but at this time, the Precipice Devil in the surrounding area had already reached the size of two million.
If Jaffy Linda and Yue Ru knew of this number, they might completely lose their will to fight and give up on resisting.
The intense battle continued. After Jaffy Linda and Yue Ru killed hundreds of Precipice Devil, they stood on top of the broken barrier, looking at the sea of Precipice Devil that was before them.
The former highest ranking and military commander of Lunar Clan, and the former strongest and most elite unit of Lunar Clan, were just submerged in a sea of No Mans Land and Precipice Devil just like that.
Honestly speaking, Jaffy Linda was fine, but Yue Ru was extremely unwilling.
Once upon a time, she and her commander, Jaffy Linda, received the entire respect of the Lunar Clansman. They had joined hands to repel the forces of the Sand Clan and recovered all of the Subordinate Planes s. The resources in each of the Subordinate Planes s could bring about tens of millions of gold coins a year as repayment to the Lunar Clansman.
At that time, she and Jaffy Linda had seemingly been the pride of Lunar Clansman.
However, it was unknown when it had started, but everything had changed.
The battles at the palace, the conflicts in the elders' courtyard, and the many factions, they were all incompatible. Yue Ruo only knew one thing, and that was that she and Ya Fei's elder sister had been used as victims in the political battle.
Her sister, Alice, had actually been insulted and humiliated by Xi Lake on the long bridge that connected the two sides of the No Mans Land. She was also a victim of this battle.1
Yue Ru could feel Alice's pain, the pain of being humiliated but not being able to speak of it.
As she thought up to this point, the deep-seated hatred for the current Elder's Hall and even the Imperial Family Member began to burn in Yue Ru's heart.
If they were willing to do their duty, why would they do so many unfair and shameful things?
They were clearly malfeasance or abuse of power, condoning the actions of those who disregarded the law. If it wasn't for that, how would Alice's humiliation have come about?
Lunar Descent Side Sea had always been a law and order, so if Blake did not have the tacit approval of the Elders Guild, how could he dare to publicly defile Alice on the bridge.
When she thought of Alice's miserable state, silent tears would fall from Yue Ru's eyes.
He had to take revenge for these grudges.
Regardless of whether it was the Imperial Family Member in the Worryfree Palace or the old undead within the Elders Guild, at this moment, in front of Yue Ru, they had already become unforgivable.
