Although the battle between the Emerald Dragons and Li Sasori was still going on, it was not as lively as before. In the process of continuous attacks, both sides found that the other side's strength was on par with theirs.
Therefore, the Emerald Dragons continued to attack with their vipers. Susumi tried her best to use the vipers without suffering any losses. However, the vipers' aerial attacks did not last long. Li Sasori also used a new type of large unit called the 'Berserk Blade Demon', which, as its name suggested, could reap the lives of its opponents with crazy attacks.
However, it was not strong enough and was eventually defeated by the Emerald Dragons, which led to further losses for the Emerald Dragons.
In the end, the losses on both sides were very similar. Both sides realized this and began to retreat as they fought. The Emerald Dragons slowly retreated into the forest, while Li Sasori retreated back to the city …
When the sun set, the battle stopped.
There were no longer any Li Sasori or Emerald Dragons on the battlefield, only wreckage and broken weapons. A large number of pterosaurs were circling around, and many of them could not wait any longer. They flew to the ground and began to feast.
Although the Emerald Dragons usually buried their own kind, they did not have the time to do so now.
Susumi was riding on the viper's back. She was at the edge of the forest, staring at Li Sasori City under the setting sun. Seeing the group of Li Sasori retreating to the city, Susumi clenched the spear in her hand …
Susumi was surrounded by screams and painful groans. Although many died, there were even more injured Emerald Dragons. Although Susumi was not seriously injured, the constant screams of the soldiers made her feel as if her mind was being pierced by a spear.
"Next time. We must win … "
Susumi said in a low voice. She did not give up. She did not want to give up either. The reason for this battle was quite simple. She felt that the Li Sasori were a threat, and the Li Sasori were even simpler. They were just defending …
If Susumi withdrew her troops, there would be peace for a long time. However, Susumi obviously did not want to do so. If they fought, they would have to fight until they won. This was Susumi's personality …
"My King, our losses are estimated to be …"
Mukla came to Susumi's side and reported all kinds of things to Susumi.
There were estimates of the Emerald Dragon's casualties, the Standing Scorpion's casualties, the losses in this battle, and various other things.
"My King, our losses are almost the same as those of Standing Scorpion. If this continues, both sides may suffer losses."
"No," Susumi said. "Look at those big monsters coming out of the ground." Susumi pointed at the corpse of an Ice Spider with her spear. The Emerald Dragons had already stripped off its crystal-covered carapace, and a large group of Pterosaurs were scrambling to eat the tender meat exposed under the carapace.
"They lost more than we did. I don't know how they control these monsters, but there aren't that many of them, "Susumi said. They should no longer have any monsters. Without the help of the monsters, victory will still be ours. "
Mukla said, "But … this will also lead to a lot of casualties. For an opponent who has never attacked us, this is too …"
"You can't doubt me, Mukla." Susumi turned to look at Mukla. "I have seen the crazy side of these creatures before. Win the battle, or you will face death."
Mukla nodded. "Yes, my King."
As the sun slowly set, the surrounding forest fell into darkness. Only the screams of the Pterosaurs and the painful groans of the Emerald Dragons echoed around.
The Emerald Dragons lit bonfires, and the light of the flames illuminated everything around them. Looking at the soldiers, Susumi could not grasp the current situation.
Susumi's army had healers, but the Emerald Dragons' healing skills were not very good. Most of them relied on plants, but usually they could only treat minor injuries. When faced with some seriously injured soldiers, it was difficult for them to do anything. At most, they could wrap the wounds to stop the bleeding.
Moreover, what they had to face here was not just injuries and bleeding. There were quite a lot of creatures living in the swamps, such as blood-sucking insects, tiny 'Hairy Jade', and the humid air here were all quite dangerous. They could infect wounds with fungi, turning even a small injury into a fatal one.
Susumi saw this and was very hesitant. It did not know when to attack, and it did not know how to treat the wounded.
This battle was already difficult for it to control, but because of this, Susumi wanted to win the battle completely.
If it retreated after losing a large number of its soldiers, what would that be like? Presumably, many Emerald Dragons would start to doubt Susumi, but at least not now. Mukla was not doubting it, it was just worried.
No matter how badly the Emerald Dragons were injured, they did not doubt Susumi. They were still in high spirits, and all of them wanted to vent their anger on Standing Scorpion. Many of the Emerald Dragons were very happy because they had obtained the shells from the Frost Spider.
The morale of the soldiers was still there, and the monster standing Scorpion should be dead.
Yes, it could still win! However, it needed a better strategy, a more perfect strategy.
That was probably what Susumi was thinking at the moment.
On the other hand, the Standing Scorpion were not much better than the Emerald Dragons. Lin's spies were still in Standing Scorpion City. Lin used the spies and eyeballs to observe the situation on both sides.
In fact, not many Standing Scorpion came to the pyramid where Lin was at. Only a few injured people were lying on the ground, so they had not discovered the situation here yet.
Many Standing Scorpion moved their companions back to the small houses in the pyramid for treatment. Fewer Standing Scorpion died, but many were injured. Their shells had a weakness, and that was that it was very difficult to heal after being injured.
The Standing Scorpion used the same method as the Emerald Dragons. They sealed their wounds to stop the bleeding, but they usually used their own saliva. There was also a general feeling of anger among the Standing Scorpion.
They were angry at the Emerald Dragons.
This was to be expected, but Lin felt that they were not very angry before. This might have something to do with the fact that they were attacked in the city.
If that was the case, even if the Emerald Dragons retreated, they would not give up. If both sides had a 'grudge', this battle might last forever.
While the two armies were resting, Lin found something interesting.
