Chapter 1034 - 319: Sword of Victory

Faced with such changes, the Demon Race army chose not to retreat, launching an even more ferocious full-scale assault.

Giant Elephant, Demon, Swamp Crawler, Black Feathered Birdman...

Even with the significant increase in the power of Legion Magic, it still couldn’t completely fend off the Demon Race army. A massive Golem approached the city wall and struck it hard, causing the ground to tremble, sending large fragments of rock falling, and leaving conspicuous cracks on the wall.

Although that section of the wall wasn’t destroyed, it showed a sizable breach; a few more hits like that, and it might collapse.

Then came the immediate follow-up.

The Giant Elephant’s spine was shattered under the blast of lightning, it roared and collapsed sideways toward the wall, launching one final attack before death.

A great amount of rubble crumbled from the wall, and many soldiers fell from it, some outside the wall, smashing into pulp, their corpses shared among the monsters below.

The war remained incredibly suspenseful, and until the very last moment, no one knew what the final outcome would be.

With the Blessing’s support, Luo Han’s defenses were almost evenly matched with the Demon Race army, and it could all come down to the smallest of margins, where any unexpected event might tip the scales of victory.

A loud crash sounded, as a heavy-armored Demon launched a fierce bodily attack on the city wall, each hit producing more cracks, with constant shuddering and shaking, prompting more rubble to fall.

This was a Demon with extremely strong individual power, possessing terrifying strength, capable of shaking the wall with just its power, unlike the Demon Elephant, its form was only two to three meters in height.

It’s normal for a large creature to have immense power and life force, fitting common sense, but if a creature not so massive possessed similar power, it was a terrifying thing, capable of unleashing a different kind of destructive power.

Davidlian immediately noticed this powerful Demon, his pupils dilated sharply, and he commanded:

"That’s the Demon Race’s vanguard general, Black Blood Demon, attack him!"

Like a blade-like whirlwind quickly forming outside the city walls, it rushed towards that Demon like thousands of rotating blades, making everything caught up in the storm turn to dust, including rubble, corpses, and ironware.

The Black Blood Demon glanced back at the whirlwind, frowned, feeling the threat, shouted out, causing its blood to flow rapidly, body rising a meter, emitting massive amounts of black eerie gas from its pores, condensing into a black armor, gleaming with a ghostly light.

He continued to launch attacks on the wall without minding the whirlwind approaching from behind.

The wall became even more shaky under his frenzied attack, fragile, seeming ready to collapse in the storm.

His body displayed streaks of blood, densely spread across, with dark purple blood flying recklessly in the wind.

He didn’t know what happened, the Mage’s magic became sharper, before this such magic couldn’t cause much harm to him, now it was peeling layer by layer through his flesh defense.

Finally.

The wall collapsed completely under the frenzied attacks, and the Black Blood Demon also was torn to pieces in the whirlwind, but he achieved his goal, destroying the wall, providing a path forward for the Demon Race army behind him.

Although the wall was breached with a large opening, inside, heavy-armored soldiers surged forward, tightly blocking the breach, keeping the Demon Race army outside the wall.

Barrage of arrows flew out of the city, falling among the Demon Race army, each arrow equipped with specially crafted armor-piercing tips capable of breaking through the Demon’s tough skin, yet often insufficient for lethal damage.

Some Demons with bodies three or four meters tall had more than ten arrows stuck in them like porcupines, still charging forward, leaping into the breach and engaging in deadly combat with the soldiers inside the wall.

The numbers of the Demon Race army were simply overwhelming, like waves continuously battering against Luohan City, and soon other sections of the wall were also breached, one opening, two, three, four.

Upon entering the war, the Demons fought with strength far beyond imagination, possessing resilient life force, and showed fearlessness in battle.

In this aspect, human armies couldn’t compare, even the Empire’s renowned elite legion would struggle against such fierceness.

As the war continued, in the rear of the church, thousands of believers persistently prayed, continuously amassing the Faith of Luo Han.

The baptism ceremony was ongoing, with nearly half of the populace becoming Believers of the All Beings Sect.

The tumult of war could be clearly felt even in the innermost part of the inner city.

The city appeared majestic yet was already teetering, liable to be decimated by the Demon Race army at any moment.

A little girl wearing a white hat stood in front of the church, asking the Priest beside her: "Will we win this war?"

The Priest frankly replied: "We certainly will, the Divine Spirit will bless us!"

······

The situation of the war was more severe than imagined, more Demons broke through the wall’s defenses, entered the outer city, and commenced bloody close-quarters combat.

In close combat, humans were generally at a disadvantage, even with the Mage Legion’s support, the casualty ratio was above 3:1, and this gap continued to expand.
