Chapter 107 Supporting The Royal Capital, Dibit City Captured By Demons
"This king really knows how to give me a difficult problem!"
Upon hearing the news of the capital's danger from the Griffin Knights, Rennes immediately felt a headache.
A legendary level six-armed snake demon, and an army of tens of thousands of demons.
This is a tough challenge.
Facing such a powerful demon army head-on, he didn't have confidence in being able to escape unscathed.
However.
His fiancée, Princess Elsa, was still in the city of Dibit.
He couldn't just sit idly by.
Allowing his own woman to perish.
He couldn't bear it either.
And his sixth daughter, Hilda, who served in the Lionheart Legion, was currently stationed in the capital.
If the capital were to be breached, Hilda's fate would be...
After much thought, Rennes finally decided to make this trip.
He was quite confident in his current strength.
He was not at all inferior to some low-level legendary powerhouses.
Although this level of strength couldn't defeat that terrifying demon army.
But if he was determined to escape, he could definitely get away.
"Upon arriving in the capital city of Dibit, act accordingly."
"If it becomes impossible, directly take Princess Elsa and our daughter and run away."
Rennes made up his mind.
After all, he was absolutely not willing to die defending the city of Dibit for the Lance royal family.
That would be playing with his own life.
He still had his wife, children, and territory to protect.
If he died.
The Habsburg family would fall apart.
After making his decision.
Rennes immediately began arranging matters in his territory.
At the same time, he used his dual-body talent to summon a clone with his full strength.
Ensuring that even after he left, the Habsburg family would still have a high-end combat force guarding it.
In fact.
If he didn't possess this talent, he definitely wouldn't leave his territory and go to the capital.
After all.
Princess Elsa is his fiancée, and Hilda is his daughter, that's correct.
But the Habsburg family also has more than ten wives who need his protection.
In a situation where he is stretched thin.
Naturally, he cannot abandon his wives and children and leave hastily.
Otherwise.
What will happen to the territory when he is gone and it is attacked by legendary demons?
He doesn't want to come back and find his territory turned into a wasteland.
With all his wives and children dead!
It can be said.
The dual-body talent came just in time, like an epic gift.
It directly solves his worries about the future.
After confirming that everything is arranged properly.
Rennes didn't wait for those griffin knights.
He rode a holy light pegasus.
And flew towards the direction of the capital city, Di Beit.
And just as Rennes received the king's plea for help and hurriedly made his way to the capital city.
The situation in Di Beit City was not optimistic.
Countless demons were attacking this magnificent giant city of the Lance Kingdom.
Although most of them were low-level demons, weak in strength, only at the level of low-level transcendent beings.
But there were also a considerable number of high-level demons among them.
Such as the demon-hunting spider, the soul judge demon, the flame demon, the stone giant demon, and so on...
These demons at least possessed the strength of high-level transcendent beings.
Among them, the best of the best even reached the 10th rank and above.
Even though the city walls of the capital city, Di Beit, were high and thick, and were reinforced with powerful magic, they were still unable to stop this terrifying army of demons from attacking.
In less than an hour.
The soldiers responsible for guarding the city walls were heavily damaged by the tide-like army of demons pouring onto the city walls.
A hundred thousand soldiers.
Now there were less than forty thousand left.
If it weren't for the fact that demons were extremely evil creatures.
Allowing the demon army to enter the city would undoubtedly result in his own death.
This army had long since collapsed and surrendered.
Even so.
The extremely high casualty rate has brought morale to an all-time low.
The defending army corps is showing signs of collapse.
"Inform the three major extraordinary knight orders to support the city wall defenses."
"The royal mage corps will use magic to provide firepower coverage."
"We absolutely cannot let those damn demons break through."
Seeing this scene, the Minister of Military Command, responsible for military operations, showed a hint of anxiety in his eyes and gave the order.
The demon onslaught is too fierce.
Even though the three major knight orders are still recovering and have not returned to their optimal state.
They must still hold the line.
At this rate, the capital city walls will be captured by the demon army in less than ten minutes.
"Yes!"
Receiving the command.
The messenger immediately ran to inform the other corps.
A few minutes later.
Thousands of extraordinary knights, wearing iron armor and wielding large swords, ascended the city walls.
With the addition of this powerful reinforcement.
The originally crumbling defense line instantly stabilized.
At the same time.
At the top of the mage tower in the center of the capital city.
Under the leadership of the chief mage of the royal mage corps, dozens of senior mages of 7th rank and above chanted spells together.
As time passed.
An extremely powerful energy fluctuation gathered in the sky above the city walls.
When the final part of the spell ended.
A huge fire cloud with a diameter of tens of thousands of meters formed with a loud boom.
Super Magic Joint Casting - Giant Meteor Fire Rain.
The next second.
Gigantic fireballs emitting terrifying high temperatures continuously condensed within the dark red fire cloud.
Then.
Like shooting stars, they rapidly fell towards the demon army on the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was as if missiles were carpet bombing the area.
Thousands of fireballs fell and exploded on the ground.
In an instant, the land outside the city walls turned into a sea of fire.
This powerful magic lasted for nearly three minutes.
During this time,
At least close to a hundred thousand demons were burned to ashes by the flames.
For a moment,
The pressure on the defense line of the Di Biete city walls was instantly reduced by more than half.
However, 427 didn't have to be happy for too long.
A few minutes later,
The demon army regrouped.
More demons filled the positions of the previously deceased demons and continued to launch attacks towards Di Biete City.
And this time,
The Royal Mage Corps was powerless.
The release of the super powerful magic had already depleted their magic power.
Without the firepower support of the Mage Corps,
The soldiers and members of the Knight Order on the city wall could only deal with the constantly charging demons themselves.
However,
The number of demons was simply too many.
No matter how they killed, the number seemed to remain unchanged.
As if it were endless.
As time passed,
The physical condition of the guards and members of the Knight Order on the city wall deteriorated.
The number of sacrifices and deaths began to rise rapidly.
Noticing the rapid decrease in resistance on the city wall,
The demon army became even more excited.
More and more high-level demons began to lead the charge.
They were ready to reap the fruits of victory and rampage through this giant city.
Even the legendary Six-Armed Snake Demon, who had always been sitting back and using other demons as cannon fodder, also made a move.
Like the last straw that broke the camel's back,
The guards and members of the Knight Order guarding the city wall were instantly defeated.
Three minutes later,
The tall city walls guarding the city were occupied by countless demons.
The city of King Dibite in the Kingdom of Lance fell.
