Just as the Divine Race's battle formation was set up, blue and red rays of light were suddenly emitted from the undead. When these rays of light hit the Divine Race's battle formation, the Divine Race soldiers immediately fell down like dumplings.
On the other hand, the Divine Race soldiers that fell down were magically suspended in midair. This wasn't the end of it. The undead would release blue and red lights from time to time. As long as they hit the Divine Race soldiers, they wouldn't be able to run.
Thunder Yun calmly looked at the battle. The Ark Continent's choice of attack was very strange. The Divine Race weren't too far away, but they weren't too close either. They could see the Ark Continent, but they couldn't chase after them. This was simply a show of force to Thunder Yun.
Thunder Yun didn't get angry, he just calmly looked at the battlefield. To be honest, after the past few days of attacks, Thunder Yun had already understood the Ark Continent's plan. They wanted to use this method to delay the Divine Race's advance and kill their forces.
Thunder Yun had also encountered this situation in the past. However, the Divine Race's lethality couldn't be compared to the Ark Continent's. The Ark Continent's attack would certainly cause casualties, at least a few hundred, maybe even a thousand.
Although these scattered attacks weren't very conspicuous, it was still a huge blow to the Divine Race's morale and strength.
Although Thunder Yun looked calm on the surface, his heart wasn't calm at all. The Ark Continent's method of attack was completely different from before. In just a short period of time, they had already encountered four attacks. Although the number of people wasn't a lot, it wasn't a small number either. Ten thousand people wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a small number either.
Moreover, they didn't know how many people would attack them in the future. This made Thunder Yun even more worried. Most importantly, Thunder Yun knew that the Ark Continent's people weren't stronger than them.
First was the mounts of the Ark Continent's people. Thunder Yun was a veteran of the battlefield, so he was very clear about the strength of a 9th rank expert. It was impossible for a 9th rank expert to have that kind of speed. The only reason why they were able to do so was because of their mounts. Thunder Yun looked at the mounts of the Ark Continent and saw that there weren't any in the continent.
The second thing was their magic cannons. Thunder Yun had already heard about the magic cannons in the Ark Continent from Cloud Ying. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it. He knew about the magic cannons in the Ark Continent. Not to mention the Ark Continent, even the Divine Realm had spent a lot of effort in order to make those magic cannons. But to be honest, Thunder Yun wasn't satisfied with the power of those magic cannons. Because of this, he thought that the Ark Continent wouldn't have such powerful magic cannons.
However, this battle had taught Thunder Yun a lesson. He didn't think that the Ark Continent's magic cannons would have this much power. This was too surprising. Thunder Yun didn't think that the Ark Continent's magic cannons would be this powerful.
However, Thunder Yun couldn't just watch the people from the Ark Continent slaughter his subordinates. He immediately sent people to support them. And when he saw the movements from the Ark Continent, the undead and the cavalry immediately retreated, leaving nothing behind.
However, when Thunder Yun looked at the results of the battle, he wasn't happy at all. He had just sent out ten thousand people, but this time, he only managed to return with less than four thousand people. In just a single confrontation, five thousand of them were killed by the Ark Continent's people. This kind of loss couldn't be considered small.
Thunder Yun frowned, he had a headache. If the Ark Continent continued to use this method, then he would have a headache. Although 20 million might seem like a lot, they wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of attack. The Radiant Empire wasn't far from the Ark Continent's territory, but they had already lost 20 thousand people. Although 20 thousand was nothing compared to 20 million, one mustn't forget that it was less than a day ago. Thunder Yun didn't expect such a huge loss to happen in less than a day.
After some time, Thunder Yun turned to Fei 'er and said, "Fei' er, what do you think we should do?"
Fei 'er replied, "Master, didn't we encounter this kind of situation before? Although the Ark Continent's people are much more lethal, their tactics are still the same."
Thunder Yun smiled and said, "You really know me. Good, order the troops to speed up. Since they want to play with us on the way, then we won't play with them on the way. We'll go straight to their base. Let's see if they still want to go all out against us. As long as we face them head on, hmph!"
Fei 'er nodded and immediately gave the order. The speed of the army increased a lot. But it was a pity that even if they increased their speed, it would be useless. After all, this was a 20 million-strong army. It wasn't easy to increase their speed while maintaining their formation.
If they wanted to maintain the formation, then they wouldn't be able to do it. But if they don't maintain the formation, then the Ark Continent's soldiers would suddenly appear and bite them.
Thunder Yun couldn't do anything about this. He can only hope that he can find the Ark Continent's people as soon as possible so that he can have a fair fight with them.
The Radiant Empire's border wasn't very far from Upper Bank City. If they were to fly fast, then it would only take half a day to reach it. However, Thunder Yun's army had been attacked along the way, which greatly reduced their speed. By the time they reached Upper Bank City, it was already two days in the afternoon.
Thunder Yun was very clear that they didn't have much time left. They couldn't camp in the wild. Unlike the Radiant Empire, they didn't have magic cannons in their camp. Moreover, they also had walls to rely on, allowing them to rest in peace. In the Buddha Empire, they didn't have anything. If they were to camp in the wild, then they would certainly become the targets of the Ark Continent's cavalry. When the time comes, their casualties would only increase.
Because of this, they needed to capture Upper Bank City before nightfall. When the army saw Upper Bank City, their speed increased. It didn't take long before they arrived at the city.
However, when they arrived at Upper Bank City, they were dumbfounded. There was no one inside the city, it was completely empty. Not to mention people, there wasn't even a single mouse inside.
When Thunder Yun saw this, his expression couldn't help but sink. He knew what Zhao Hai was planning. Zhao Hai wanted to use the Buddha Empire's Space to trap them here. One must know that since the morning, they had been attacked 24 times by the Ark Continent's cavalry. And every time, they would suffer losses. At this point, their casualties had already reached 30 thousand people.
With 30 thousand casualties, they didn't even manage to touch a single hair of the enemy. This made Thunder Yun lose face. Originally, he thought that the enemy would arrange for people to fight in Upper Bank City. This way, they would be able to vent their anger.
However, he didn't expect that the other party wouldn't give him such an opportunity and directly gave up on Shang Ru City. Thunder Yun looked at the empty Shang Ru City and sucked in a cold breath. Regardless of the other party's commanding ability, the other party's oppressive force was enough to show how extraordinary he was.
Naturally, the Divine Race had their own Divine Sense. Thunder Yun scanned the city with his Divine Sense. The layout of Upper Bank City was very good. Not only inside the city, but outside as well. The crisscrossing underground showed how much importance the Ark Continent placed on this place.
However, when the Divine Race sent out their troops, the enemy immediately gave up on this place and started to ambush them. This wasn't something that an average person could do.
Actually, Thunder Yun's biggest mistake was the fact that he didn't include the Ark Continent's commoners. In the entire Buddha Empire, aside from the army, there weren't any commoners. In this case, Zhao Hai had a lot of options. For example, he could give up on Upper Bank City because there were no commoners that needed his protection. There was no reason for him to stay here and fight the enemy.
Thunder Yun didn't think about this point. Therefore, when he saw the empty city, he couldn't help but be startled. After being startled, his expression turned ugly. This was because he knew that if the enemy didn't fight in Upper Bank City, then the ambushes wouldn't stop. Whether it was day or night, the Divine Race wouldn't have a moment of peace.
All the Divine Race people looked at Upper Bank City in a daze. They didn't know what to do next. Originally, they wanted to exterminate the Ark Continent's resistance. But now, not only were they unable to do so, they were even ambushed from time to time. This made the Divine Race people feel very depressed.
Thunder Yun looked at Upper Bank City, then he clenched his teeth and said, "Let's enter the city and rest. Tomorrow, we'll head towards the Ark Continent. I don't believe that they would give up on Upper Bank City, the Buddha Empire, and the Ark Continent. Make sure to stay vigilant and keep your guard up."
The Divine Race people nodded and immediately went to make arrangements. However, Thunder Yun brought too many people with him. Upper Bank City simply couldn't accommodate all of them. In the end, only some of them could live outside. However, the Divine Race people were also very good. They used their earth element magic to make a room outside and settled down.
However, what made the Divine Race people feel strange was that ever since they got close to Upper Bank City, they hadn't encountered any ambushes. This made the Divine Race people very confused.
However, the ambushes during the day had given them a headache. Because of this, the Divine Race people were still on guard. They even sent a squad of a million people to patrol outside their camp.
As the sky turned dark, the majority of the Divine Race had already rested. Although God-ranks wouldn't be affected if they didn't rest for a few days, Thunder Yun was a soldier. He knew that not resting for a few days would have a negative effect on the Divine Race. The Divine Race's fighting strength would decrease. In the face of the Ark Continent's cunning enemies, not being in a good state was the same as courting death. Therefore, Thunder Yun ordered everyone to rest.
