Ch. 2649: Phantom! Sudden Strike (3)
The city lord boarded the city wall and looked out at the devil army outside the city. Suddenly, he found
that several fast and untraceable gures were shuttling back and forth among countless troops.
“City lord? Who are those people?” The soldiers in the bloody battle looked at the chaotic devil army in
disbelief.
They did not see the large army of the alliance. They did not even know the identity of the other party.
Shen Yanxiao had once issued a strict order. Before the decisive battle, no one was allowed to ght headon with the devil army. After the rst confrontation in the Desert City, no group had ever violated Shen
Yanxiao’s order. Every city had relied mainly on the defensive war of attrition. Not mentioning Shen
Yanxiao’s orders, it was impossible for the soldiers in their city to ght against the devil army alone in the
rst place. With the strength of the Devil Race, it could be said that it was easy to destroy the troops in the
city. They simply could not cause such a great disturbance within the devil army.
“I don’t know.” The city lord clenched his teeth. Even though he did not know where those allies suddenly
jumped out from to ght the devils, he knew one thing very well. No matter who they were, the other
party had come to help them.
“Immediately issue orders: the city soldiers stationed on the wall will repel all devils in the city; gunners,
Magicians, Archers, don’t stop attacking! Since allies have come to help us, we can’t just let them ght
alone. Everyone, give me a good ght, even at the risk of your lives!” Their blood started to boil; no one
wanted to retreat without a ght. Now that their allies were ghting to the death against the enemies,
they could not just stand idly by. Even if they could not go out of the city to support them, they would
inict more damage to the devils in the city.
At one command, the soldiers from top to bottom were as excited as if they had been injected with
chicken blood. They didn’t want to leave at all. They wanted to ght the devils to the end, to avenge their
brothers and their comrades!
In an instant, the whole city’s momentum had been greatly improved. The long-ranged attacks become
more erce; Knights, Swordsmen, and Priests began to pour into the wall and repel the devil to protect
their comrades.
The devil army outside the city was in a mess. They had no idea what had happened.
Originally, they were about to break through the city in front of them; but then, several killing gods
suddenly appeared from who knew where and brought about a terrible disaster for their army.
All the devils were in a state of confusion and disorder; the other party’s speed was so great that they
didn’t even have the chance to catch the opponent’s shadow.
These several mysterious gures had caused the devil troops, which had run rampant in the Barren Land
without any obstruction, to encounter the worst nightmare in history.
The other party was obviously targeting their commanders.
The rst thing that made the devils realize that there had been a sudden strike was their commander in
charge of directing the battle. His head had been cut o in front of their eyes in a ash and his sturdy
body fell straight down from his demon beast’s back; the glaring blood left the devil soldiers, who were
waiting to break through the city gate, completely startled.
Despite being guarded by such a large army, their commander, right in front of their eyes, was beheaded,
and none of them could nd a single sign of the other party.
Chaos ensued. Immediately afterwards, all the devils wearing the badges of high-ranking military ocers
were hunted and killed. One by one, they were decapitated. The devils were thoroughly shocked. They
could not nd the killer. The only things they could see were the lightning-fast shadows ashing among
their ranks.
