Chapter 401: Chapter 289 Is Your Lineup Reasonable? (4K)_2
By now, the monster army had completely surrounded them and was continuously wearing them down. At this rate, not to mention maintaining resonance for half an hour, the Army Soul Corps might not even be able to do so for twenty minutes or even fifteen.
In such a short period, how many enemies could the three Army Soul Corps kill?
A thousand, two thousand, or three to four thousand?
Even if they could eradicate ten or twenty thousand enemy troops, it was still a situation destined for defeat.
Moreover, the soldiers being slaughtered were merely the 'cannon fodder' among the attacking legions. The real Warlord Level powerhouses and Leader Level commanders were all stationed in safe locations, attacking from a distance.
No matter how powerful the Army Soul Corps were, they were helpless when mired in a quagmire.
At that moment,
Boom——
A massive, dark blue figure flew out from the midst of the black fog. The black fog surged forward in time, as if it were its chariot.
Accompanied by the advancing black fog, giant wings unfurled, and the overwhelming Coercion suddenly spread far and wide.
Ten meters! A hundred meters! A kilometer!
The many monsters besieging the Army Soul Corps abruptly stiffened, their pupils revealing an instinctual terror. Under the gaze of those dark blue vertical pupils from the Azure Sky above, they seemed like insects about to be crushed at any moment.
These monsters were at least of Elite-level strength.
Under the dragon's Coercion, they did not collapse on the spot, but they were inevitably heavily affected. Those farther away moved sluggishly, while those closer trembled like sieves.
Seizing this opportunity, the Army Soul Corps advanced forcefully, aiming for heavily clustered enemy positions and delivering one devastating Sword Light after another, as if they intended to slice the earth itself apart.
"It's actually a Frost Giant Dragon."
From the Azure Sky, the old general commented, "Indeed, in such a large-scale war, a single Frost Giant Dragon could easily match many Fourth-order Strongmen. It has the ability to turn the tide of a local battlefield."
"However, do not forget that there are three battlefields here."
No sooner had he finished speaking,
On the left, outside the second town, a Red Giant Dragon soared into the air. It spread its immense Coercion and unleashed waves of blazing flames.
On the right, outside the third town, a Blue Giant Dragon took to the sky as well. As it diffused its Coercion, it opened a glowing blue Enchantment, which absorbed numerous Techniques and reflected them back.
For a moment, the defending forces' might surged once more.
This was the strategic value of Giant Dragons.
In such large-scale wars, other powerhouses could only protect themselves, but the dragons could ignore low-level attacks and spread their Coercion, which did not deplete their own energy, to weaken the enemy on a large scale.
However,
"The Blue Giant Dragon at the third town is a Water Mirror Dragon, isn't it? It doesn't possess the strong physical defense of a typical Giant Dragon, and its level is a little lower, not yet reaching Four-order."
"Compared to the Frost Giant Dragon and the Red Giant Dragon, the battlefield where the Water Mirror Dragon is located signifies your weakest point."
The old general's eye for detail was sharp; he immediately recognized the weak link among the dragons.
He directed the first and second battlefields to continue maintaining their positions, while under his command, the corps at the third battlefield launched a strong offensive.
He was the strategist.
On the various battlefields, Fourth-order commanders conducted more precise commands. Third-order Strongmen, leading elite teams, roamed around, looking for opportunities to strike.
Dingling~
The sound of a bell softly rang out, yet eerily echoed far and wide.
Nearby, Third-order Strongmen leading elite squads suddenly rolled their eyes back and, powerless to resist, were pierced through the chest by ice cones flying from afar.
Simultaneously, a wisp of grey smoke shot out from the Treeman Forest toward the location of the Fourth-order commanders in the distance.
The smoke shot forward like lightning, crossing a kilometer in the blink of an eye.
The smoke was like an arrow, piercing the Man Niu Soldiers blocking its path as easily as if they were cardboard.
A long spear appeared, followed by a strong, black hand gripping it. A muscular figure emerged from the smoke, his muscles bulging as he brandished the spear, creating black and grey dragon-shaped trails.
"Such audacity."
"But to think that will be enough to defeat my officers is far too simplistic."
"My commanders are no weaklings either."
This was a Leader Niu at the Fourth-order Peak. His stature was mountainous, wielding two axes larger than bed boards.
His back arching, he brought down his axe with a mocking glint in his huge eyes that hinted at human-like scorn.
The next moment, the sound of clashing metal resounded.
The palms of Leader Niu split open, sending him stumbling backwards with shock, leaving deep marks on the ground.
However, he was not alone. As Rakshasa pressed his advantage, guards and Shamans from nearby and afar joined in the attack.
A dull yellow glow enveloped the area.
Axes and blades slashed like nets across the sky.
Yet Rakshasa sprouted two additional arms from his back. One pair clapped together, shattering the yellow glow; the other pair swept around, casting palm imprints in all directions.
The Man Niu Elite guards were sent flying, knocking over countless warriors.
And as Rakshasa stepped forward, the Fenye Evil Spear thrust from the side.
Thrust—
The spear pierced through Leader Niu's neck.
The next moment, Boom——
An onslaught of ranged attacks rained down. The old general had hoped to use Leader Niu as a sacrifice to eliminate the dark, sturdy man. However, Rakshasa had already vanished from where he stood.
When he appeared again, he was hundreds of meters away.
With spear in hand, he struck and swiftly removed another Fourth-order Strongman.
He moved in and out seven times, treating the enemy army as though it were nothing.
Indeed, he didn't have the ability to ignore the multitude of attacks, nor could he single-handedly confront the entire army. But he was far too much stronger than any Fourth-order Strongman.
