Chapter 101
101 A bloody battle to the end
Xia Pingan’s consciousness returned to his brain. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the floor. His body was pressed against the ruins of the collapsed roof and building materials. His entire body was buried in the ruins.
In his hand, he was holding a rocket launcher that had already been fired.
The roar in her ears had already disappeared. Xia Pingan’s consciousness was still stuck at the scene of the tank downstairs raising its gun barrel and firing at where he was last night.
He had just killed a demonic fire Spider with a bazooka when a tank turned around the corner and fired a shot at the small building he was in.
The 125mm caliber tank’s main cannon shattered the walls and the entire roof. Xia Pingan was sent flying by the blast of the explosion. Then, he was buried by the ruins that had collapsed from upstairs.
To the entire 87th Division.
Yesterday was like a nightmare.
It was a bloody battle!
Xia ping ‘an did not know how many people from the 87th Division had successfully withdrawn from xinchuan city after a day of bloody battle.
The combination of The Phantom monster’s demon spirit, demon rat, Demon Fire Spider, and demon liquid Spider tore apart all the troops of the 87th Division in xinchuan city overnight.
Yes, the 87th Division was completely defeated. The last order they received was from the division’s headquarters to cover the citizens ‘retreat. After that, they lost contact with the division’s headquarters.
The 87th Legion could face the demon rats and the demon Fire spiders, but they could not face The Phantom monster’s demon spirit.
Because no one expected a demon spirit to come out of the spatial crack, the 87th Legion was completely unprepared. The latter was an undying monster to the 87th Legion. Not only that, once The Phantom monster’s demon spirit got close to them, they would fall into a terrifying illusion. They would no longer be able to distinguish between reality and illusion. Under the control of The Phantom monster’s demon spirit, they would attack the people around them.
The Warriors that were possessed by The Phantom monster’s Demon Soul would start killing people around them under the control of The Phantom monster’s Demon Soul.
Even if it could kill the possessed person, it would be of no use, because the possessed Phantom monster would find the next target and continue to drag the next target into the illusion to attack the companions around it.
It was under such circumstances that the 87th Division collapsed. The division’s headquarters gave the order to protect the citizens of xinchuan city and retreat from the city. They had no choice but to give up on xinchuan city.
From the early morning of the 28th to the night of the 29th, xinchuan city fell in less than a day. The 87th Division’s headquarters was uncontactable, and the entire command system was paralyzed. The losses of the 87th Division were hard to estimate. The entire xinchuan city was filled with burning tanks and military vehicles. The bodies of the 87th Division’s soldiers who died in battle were everywhere.
Only the summoner could kill the demon spirit. In front of the summoner’s spells, The Phantom monster’s demon spirit was almost invincible in the face of guns and firearms. It was actually very fragile. A simple fireball could kill the demon spirit, and the summoned creatures could also kill the demon spirit.
There were a total of 93 Summoners stationed in xinchuan city’s demon suppression guards. They were ordered to snipe The Phantom monster’s demon spirit with the troops that covered the retreat of the Army and xinchuan citizens.
Xia Pingan stayed behind and fought with the other Summoners to protect the other soldiers and citizens of the 87th Division.
This was Xia Pingan’s first battle as the priest of the 87th Division. He did not expect it to be such a fierce battle.
Including Xia Pingan, the 94 Summoners of xinchuan city lost one-third of their numbers to severely injure the spirits of The Phantom monsters, effectively covering the evacuation of the 87th Division and the citizens of xinchuan.
After the divine power in the secret mandala was almost completely depleted and the divine power Pills were completely consumed, Xia Pingan picked up his gun and rocket launcher. Like an ordinary warrior, he fought the invading demons to the end.
However, the two space portals in xinchuan city had been completely lost. In the face of the collapse and the constant emergence of invading creatures, the power of less than a hundred Summoners could not change the situation in xinchuan city.
Xia Pingan stayed until the end. At the last moment of the battle, he summoned the last elite slave soldier and farmer from the secret mandala. He used the two summoned creatures to attract the demonic fire Spider and the demonic spirit, who were chasing the troops at the back, to the street near the building. Finally, after killing a demonic fire Spider with a bazooka, the house he was in was hit by the tank’s artillery and buried under the ruins.
......
With a sound of ” Hua la Hua Hua “, Xia Pingan stretched out one hand from the bricks and tiles in the ruins and moved away a broken reinforced concrete block weighing hundreds of kilograms from his body. Then, he drilled out of the ruins one step after another.
Xia ping ‘an, who had emerged from the ruins, was covered in dust from head to toe. Even his eyelashes were covered in dust. His clothes were torn in many places, and his mouth and nose were stained with dried blood. His original appearance could no longer be seen.
There was a big hole in one of the walls of the three-story building. The roof had collapsed, and almost everything in the house was destroyed in the explosion. The remaining walls were covered in smoke and fire, as well as shocking traces of shrapnel.
The huge holes in the roof and walls were like two huge skylights. The weather outside was a bit gloomy, but the sunlight still seeped through the holes. Along with the light, there were gusts of cold wind.
There was a strange silence in the entire city. There were only sporadic gunshots from the distance, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xia Pingan, who had climbed out of the ruins, checked his body and heaved a sigh of relief. Other than some bruises on his body, there were no obvious external injuries. He was just a little suffocated because he vomited blood and fainted last night due to the blast of the bomb explosion and was buried in the ruins for a night.
Fortunately, this body of the origin realm was strong enough. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died last night.
Xia Pingan carefully moved her hands and feet, then went behind the broken wall. Through the gap of a broken cabinet, she carefully observed the scene on the street outside.
The corpse of the last magical fire Spider that he killed last night was still on the street over 100 m away. The rocket launcher had caused a fatal big hole on its body. The remains of the burning tank were still on the street.
The entire xinchuan city was beyond recognition as far as the eye could see. Smoke was billowing everywhere, and the buildings in the city were covered in traces left behind by the rain of bullets and explosions.
The 87th Division’s soldiers could no longer be seen in the city.
During the day yesterday, a large number of xinchuan city’s citizens had fled the city under the cover of the 87th Division’s soldiers. However, not everyone could escape. Some people should have stayed behind and were now hiding in various corners of the city.
Just as Xia Pingan was sizing up the situation on the street outside, a huge demonic fire Spider slowly turned around from the side of the street.
Seeing the demonic fire Spider that appeared on the street, Xia Pingan held her breath.
The demonic fire Spider turned its head and scanned the buildings on both sides of the street. Then, it quickly walked to the corpse of the demonic fire Spider that Xia Pingan had killed and began to gnaw on it with great relish.
Xia Pingan used his long-distance vision ability to take a look. At this moment, outside xinchuan city, there were Demon Fire spiders, demon liquid spiders, demon rats everywhere. There were also many Phantom monsters ‘demon spirits wandering around the streets like ghosts. At the moment, he had no divine power to use. If he were to go out and encounter Demon Fire spiders or Phantom monsters’ demon spirits, he would definitely die.
So the best way now was to wait for his divine power to recover at least a little and have the ability to protect himself before thinking of a way.
Xia ping ‘an waited patiently. After waiting for about two hours, the demonic fire Spider on the street was gnawed to the point that only its shell was left. Only then did the demonic fire Spider slowly leave.
......
At this moment, the divine power in Xia Pingan’s Secret mandala had almost been wiped out, leaving only the last bit of divine power.
The secret mandala was empty. Besides that Alchemist who had entered the black mist and had not returned, the secret mandala was almost empty.
If he wanted to recover his divine power again, he would need to wait for at least ten days. He would have to wait until the night of the 11th of November, which was the 15th of October of the lunar calendar, before half of the divine power in the secret mandala would be recovered.
Xia Pingan didn’t want to wait here in vain.
It would be the most dangerous to wait for more than ten days in this place where danger lurked everywhere.
At present, there was only one place in xinchuan city where he could quickly recover some of his divine power-the special equipment management Office of the logistics equipment department of the 87th Division.
Xia Pingan had collected his divine power Pills for the past two months from there. The divine power Pills of the 87th Division were transported by the country of fire’s military headquarters every few days. The divine power Pills were very precious, and it was impossible to supply too many at once.
There might be some divine power Pills left there that he did not have time to take away.
The special logistics department was located in the suburbs, where there were fewer monsters than in the city. Even if there were no divine power Pills there, it would be safer to move there first.
After making up his mind, Xia ping ‘an waited quietly in the ruins and recuperated. He waited until the sky was completely dark before he started to act.
The clouds were very thick tonight, and visibility was very low, which made it convenient for them to move at night. The magic fire spiders and magic rats were not good at seeing, so their perception abilities would be lower in the dark.
He dragged the last bit of divine power from the secret mandala into the zu Qiao point in the middle of his eyes. As his eyes instantly turned cold, the dark night outside became clear in the faint red light.
The corridor of this house had been blocked by the ruins of the exploded building. Xia Pingan grabbed the gap between the bricks and the balcony railing from the entrance of the wall that had been blasted open by the Cannonball. She silently slid down from the fourth floor and quickly slid down to the main street.
Xia Pingan activated her long-distance vision ability and used her aerial vision to observe the movements on the surrounding streets. Then, she used the darkness and the surrounding buildings as cover and quickly ran towards the suburbs.
Along the way, Xia Pingan avoided more than ten demon rats and several big spiders wandering in the city. After an hour, he finally arrived at the small airport in the suburbs where the logistics special equipment Center was located.
