This was the farthest village in Yao Mountain territory.
The population of this village wasn't large, only around thirty-thousand people, and it was the smallest among all villages.
Ji Hao valued the defense of each village very much, and the defensive power of this village was not weak at all. Two-hundred Senior Magi and three-thousand elite warriors were stationed in this village. Ji Hao was rich, so all warriors were wearing heavy armors, and their weapons and bows were all top-grade.
Tens of thousands of enemies suddenly encircled this village. In order not to damage the houses in this village and accidentally hurt the villagers, the Senior Magi in this village had already moved over a hundred miles away. Two-hundred Senior Magi and a similar number of enemies had been fighting a fierce battle in a mountain a hundred miles away.
The three-zhang tall mud wall surrounding the village was covered in blood. Warriors under Ji Hao's command were wearing heavy armors, holding sharp blades and guarding the wall, shouting and fighting fiercely. They had just started a fight against the enemies, but over a thousand corpses had already been lying outside the mud wall.
The enemies were like a group of crazy ants, rushing towards the mud wall. Some of them rushed up the mud wall and started a melee fight with Ji Hao's warriors. Some of them were holding long spears and halberds, standing a little further away, and some of them were randomly shooting at Ji Hao's warriors on the mud wall with poorly made longbows.
Wooden arrows with metal tips darted across the air, and a few simple spell symbols could be seen sparkling on the surface of some of them.
These arrows were extremely weak. The overwhelming number of arrows seemed to be amazing, but in fact, they weren't lethal at all. Ji Hao saw a few low-grade commanders standing on the mud wall already look like hedgehogs, with at least thirty to fifty arrows stuck on their armors. However, they were still nimble and strong. Wherever their long blades swept across, enemies would fall down one after another, while blood splashed out from their bodies.
However, the number of enemies was way too huge, and the mud wall that the village needed to defend was way too long. Three-thousand warriors couldn't cover all of them.
Quite a few mud walls were knocked down by those enemies with thick wooden stakes. Those enemies with ragged clothes shouted out loud, gasping quickly with red eyes while rushing into the village. A few tall and sturdy ones, who were obviously the leaders, raised their weapons and growled, "Food! Clothes! Skins! Livestock! Salt! Take everything that you can! "
"Women! Take all women and children! Hah, we're going to be rich! "
"Don't set the fire yet, don't set the fire yet. Set the fire after we take everything!"
Large groups of enemies roared and rushed into the village like a group of mad dogs.
The people in the village roared. Tens of thousands of men, young and old, all grabbed their weapons and rushed out. In this era, everyone was a soldier. As long as one was a man, even a five or six-year-old child could pick up a weapon and kill.
There were also thousands of strong women who picked up their bows and stood on the rooftops, whistling loudly, shooting arrows at the incoming enemies.
There were a lot of enemies, and the troops were densely packed. The young women in the village didn't need much archery skills. As long as they pulled open the crossbow and shot the arrow, they would definitely hit the enemy. Tens of thousands of arrows were shot out in the short span of two breaths, and thousands of enemies who had rushed into the village were shot down to the ground.
The villagers and the enemy were quickly tangled together. Blades, spears, swords, halberds, all sorts of weapons were slashing at each other in a chaotic manner. Soon, shrill cries of pain could be heard everywhere.
These enemies were fierce and fierce, like wolves and tigers. However, they seemed to be weaker than the villagers. After fighting against the villagers, Ji Hao found that the people under his command had gained the upper hand. On average, each of them could take on two enemies.
The enemies who had rushed into the village fell into a disadvantageous position, and were beaten back by the villagers one after another.
The enemies near the mud wall were in an even worse situation. They had already rushed into the village. Therefore, the warriors who were responsible for guarding the village made up their minds. Three-thousand warriors quickly gathered together and formed a battle formation, sweeping across the village. Wherever they reached, heads would roll, and blood would flow into rivers. Soon, the blood would be frozen into bright ice cubes.
Ji Hao raised his eyebrows. Were these enemies so weak?
Turning his head around, Ji Hao saw a large number of people gathering in a jungle tens of miles away.
Hundreds of thousands of elderly people, women and children had gathered in the jungle, and had been eagerly looking at Ji Hao. The clothes worn by those elderly people, women and children were ragged. Many of them had even wrapped themselves in tree barks. Not even a complete piece of leather could be found.
All of them were emaciated and looked weak. Ji Hao didn't know how long they had been starving.
"Mr. Crow, scare them!" Ji Hao looked at the crowd of people waiting in the jungle and said in a deep voice.
Standing on Ji Hao's head, Mr. Crow raised his wings high. He flapped his wings and suddenly transformed into a stream of fiery light, darting up to tens of meters high. His body expanded to hundreds of meters long, and his feathers were pure golden. Every single feather had been releasing a golden-red fiery light.
A caw resounded straight into the sky. Mr. Crow released the flame inside his body with all of his power. The great heat swept across the area for miles around. The wind and snow above the village were swept away by the fiery light, and even a ten-miles-wide hole was burned out of the dense clouds.
Mr. Crow spread his wings and floated in the air, without moving even a little bit. He was shining with a golden light, like a small sun, releasing an inexhaustible light and heat. The terrifying sense of power released from his body made all the people who had been fighting on the ground quiver simultaneously. Those enemies screamed in pain, while Ji Hao's people cheered out.
When Ji Hao set up the altar to confer titles to the mountain gods and water ghosts, Mr. Crow showed his face in front of all his people. Now, he suddenly showed up above the village, which meant that Ji Hao had already arrived.
The pair of magic fiery snakes didn't want to show any weakness either. They abruptly leaped up from Ji Hao's shoulders and took a deep breath, after which, the pair of tiny magic fiery snakes suddenly expanded to nine zhang long. Their hideous bodies were wrapped in fiery clouds, spurting fiery light out of their mouths while letting out hissing noises.
Abruptly, both of them opened their mouths and let out a stream of fire liquid towards the ground. Along with a sizzling noise, the three-feet-thick snow was melted, and two zhang in radius and over a hundred meters deep holes were burned out on the frozen ground. Lava gushed out from those holes.
Ji Hao stood in midair, looked at those enemies and growled harshly, "I am Earl Yao, the owner of this land. How dare you invade my territory and attack my people? Are you challenging the entire humankind? "
Those enemies on the ground glanced at each other and didn't say a word. They didn't know who Earl Yao was, neither did they know what attacking Earl Yao's territory meant.
They only knew that hundreds of thousands of their people didn't have anything to eat or wear, and they had to get food and drinks. Otherwise, a large number of their people would starve to death.
From a mountain far away, a few silhouettes dashed over. A bearded man growled out in rage, "What Earl Yao? Never heard of him! Boys, kill, rob! Do you want to watch your Abba and Amma starve to death? Do you want to watch your sons starve to death? "
The man leaped into the air, suddenly leaped up to hundreds of meters high and threw a heavy punch towards Ji Hao's face.
The punch roared along with a strong gust of wind. This man was a Magus King!
Ji Hao snorted coldly. All of his spirit power suddenly sank into his lower abdomen and condensed into an indescribably tiny spot.
In the next moment, Ji Hao swung his right fist and launched the move of 'earth-splitting'.
