On the north side of the Chi Ban Mountain, Di Sha's army was quickly approaching towards the south.
Tens of thousands of slave warriors were wearing leather armors and holding weapons, excitedly driving large groups of human beings, including the elderly and the weak, towards the south.
These human beings were all strung up by ropes tied around their waists. These specially made ropes, which were thickly covered in blood-red spell symbols, had penetrated through their spines, forcing them to move slowly and quickly along with the troop.
Roughly a thousand elderly and the weak were strung up by a rope, and there were at least hundreds of such troops. They ran majestically on the blood-red ground, crying and shouting as they ran towards their unknown fate.
If someone fell down and delayed the whole troop, the Yu Clan's slave warriors would happily chop off their heads, hang the heads on their waists with their long hair, and use it to show off.
Tens of thousands of slave warriors were all covered in blood, some of them had seven to eight human heads tied around their waists. Blood had been ceaselessly dripping down from the severed heads, adding a touch of blood to the Chi Ban Mountain ground.
A whole three-hundred metal chariots were floating in the air, three feet high from the ground, being dragged by puppets, which were also made of metal. Every single chariot was shining brightly, and from time to time, countless spell symbols would transform into eye-piercing lightning bolts, dazzling tens of zhang away.
Both the beast-shaped puppets that were pulling the chariots and the chariots themselves were thickly inlaid with countless fist-sized sharp blades. The edges of these blades were extremely sharp, green and had been dipped in highly toxic poison, and were also thickly covered in spell symbols. These blades could even easily cut the body of a Senior Magus.
On each chariot stood three nearly ten-meter tall, gigantic human-shaped puppet warriors. One of them was holding a spear, one was holding a dagger, and the last one was holding a bow. These three puppets were capable of both long-range and short-range attacks. Countless complicated spell symbols were carved on the bodies of these puppet warriors, and every single one of these spell symbols had been sparkling with an eye-piercing light. The key parts of these puppet warriors' bodies were inlaid with water-tank-sized, top-grade magic crystals, which provided them with great power.
Behind those chariots, a ten-zhang tall tower was floating in the air, moving along with the troop. Over ten Yu Clan warriors were standing in a circle on the base of the steeple, vigilantly looking around. From time to time, their erect eyes would release dazzling beams of cold light.
Above the minaret, a huge blood-red vertical eye was spinning slowly. From time to time, it would spit out a beam of blood-red light that shot forward in an arc.
The beam of blood-red light, which was as thick as a human leg and over ten feet long, flew tens of miles away and pierced into the ground. Accompanied by dense explosions, the blood-red light exploded into thousands of thumb-sized specks of light, randomly spraying in all directions.
There was a small blood-red rune flickering in each of the light spots. The light spots shot out, and no matter what they touched, they would explode, releasing blood-red electric arcs that could be seen by the naked eye, and spread out in all directions.
A sizzling noise could be heard without an end. Every time a beam of blood-red light exploded, the blood-red thunderbolts released could cover the area with a radius of a hundred miles.
Any magic formation or other traps set by the humankind in this area couldn't escape the detection of the blood-red light. This tall tower was an essential strategic weapon for the Yu Clan when they went on an expedition.
Di Sha was riding on his mount, closely following behind the tower.
Although he was eager to take revenge, and wanted to wash off the negative influence brought by the death of Di Luo and the destruction of the Blood Fang, Di Sha was naturally cautious. Even though he was surrounded by tens of thousands of elite warriors, he still didn't dare to be careless.
He had used human captives to explore the way in the front, and had even consumed a great amount of magic crystals to continuously detect whether there were any ambushes of the humankind in the mountain area in front of them. In the eyes of the other Yu Clan commanders, Di Sha's behavior could even be counted as' cowardice ', but Di Sha insisted on doing this.
"Tell those little bastards on the two wings to be quiet!" Di Sha raised his head, glanced at the two wings for a while, then cursed loudly, "Do not rush in recklessly! Keep moving side by side with the main army! Do they really think that the humankind is so easy to bully? They must have never risked their lives in the Southern Wasteland jungle! "
This time, Di Sha's army had been replenished with a large number of warriors.
However, these new warriors were all young members of the Yu Clan, Jia Clan and other large families of the Blood Moon. Instead of saying that they had come to fight, it would be more appropriate to say that they had come to earn money.
These days, Di Sha had led them to break tens of large-scale human clans located on the north side of the Chi Ban Mountain area, and captured a great number of slaves and wealth. Therefore, these newly joined young warriors had no idea about the immensity of the sky and the immensity of the earth. They all thought that the humankind was truly weak and vulnerable.
Di Sha had arranged them to stay on the two wings of the main army, but these young warriors had all been excitedly speeding up, rushing forward at full speed. They had been wholeheartedly trying to wipe out a human army before Di Sha, to earn credits and capture slaves.
Di Sha had no choice but to order them to shrink their army over and over again, forcing them to stay in the same formation as the main army. However, these young warriors had disobeyed Di Sha's orders over and over again. Time and time again, they had led their guards and slave warriors to sweep the front.
"Damn it!" Di Sha angrily wielded his whip and lashed hard on his mount, then said, "Alright, you didn't listen to my orders, you just wanted to die, you can't blame me for this!"
Hundreds of miles away, on top of a towering mountain, Ji Hao was standing beside Ginger, silently looking at the smoke rising into the sky.
From hundreds of miles away, the dazzling blood-red light released by that blood-red tower was still clearly visible. This was the first time Ji Hao had ever seen such a powerful weapon that could detect magic formations within a large area, and Ginger knew this kind of tower very well.
"A ten-zhang tall divine tower, its maximum attacking range is a hundred miles!" Ginger narrowed his eyes, staring at Ji Hao with his pair of glowing green eyes, and warned, "Once you get within a hundred miles of it, you have to be extra careful! These divine towers made by the Xiu Clan can easily release a Magus-King-level attack, as long as they are filled with enough magic crystals. This is not something that you kids can handle. "
Ji Hao looked at the dazzling blood-red light in the distance and said in a deep voice, "So, we have to destroy this divine tower first, right?"
Ginger glanced at Ji Hao with approval, then waved his hands. A few apprentices of the Magi Palace quickly escorted those Yu Clan's young warriors and Jia Clan's warriors over.
"You're right, that's why I didn't kill them just now, instead, I accepted their surrender!"
"But they definitely don't want to know what will happen to them after I turn them into bug puppets."
Ginger let out a series of hissing laughter, while gently putting those egg-sized bug eggs into the mouths of those captives. All of those captives struggled madly, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get rid of Ginger's cold and scrawny hands.
"Ji Hao, Wulong Yao and those old bastards are good at teaching people how to read and write."
"But on the battlefield, killing and risking your life, you have to learn from me!"
Ginger popped out his eyes, abruptly let out a high-pitched scream. Along with his voice, over a thousand captives showed the whites of their eyes simultaneously, leapt straight up from the ground, then darted towards the Yu Clan's army, leaving a long trail of smoke in the air.
