Thunder Yun didn't know how many Blood Mosquitoes he had killed. It was as if there was no end to these mosquitoes. Every time he killed a batch, another batch would appear, and another batch would appear.
In Thunder Yun's opinion, these mosquitoes were even more annoying than the Ark Continent's cavalry. Although the Ark Continent's cavalry attacked, it was impossible for them to attack all of them at once. In fact, only those on the periphery would be attacked, those in the middle wouldn't be affected.
However, these mosquitoes were different. There were too many of them, they could attack almost anyone. Nobody had time to rest, this wouldn't be good, it would affect their fighting strength too much.
At this point, the Divine Race had already suffered casualties. Although Thunder Yun didn't know how many casualties there were, he still couldn't help but frown.
The mosquitoes' attacks were different from human attacks. When humans attacked, they could form a formation. However, the mosquitoes couldn't. Their bodies were too small, even if they formed a formation, it would still be impossible for them to block the overwhelming attacks. In the end, everyone would have to fight for themselves.
Thunder Yun looked at the mosquitoes and thought about how to deal with them. But at this time, there weren't many mosquitoes left. At the very least, there were less than before. This made the pressure on the Ark Continent a lot lighter.
Looking at this situation, Thunder Yun let out a long breath. But at this time, an explosion was heard. Thunder Yun was startled as he looked at the explosion. He saw that the Ark Continent's cavalry had finished throwing their javelins and were retreating.
Thunder Yun's expression sank. He didn't expect the Ark Continent's cavalry to come and take advantage of the situation. This was too infuriating.
Although Thunder Yun's teeth were itching, there was nothing he could do. This was war, the goal was to eliminate the enemy. Although the Ark Continent's actions were hateful, Thunder Yun had to recognize that this was the best time to deal with the Divine Race.
After thinking about this, Thunder Yun couldn't help but sigh. This time, he didn't even get to see the face of the legendary Zhao Hai. Instead, he suffered heavy losses. Compared to Cloud Ying and Silver Shuke, Thunder Yun's situation was even worse. This made him feel ashamed.
However, this situation wasn't within his expectations. He didn't think that the Ark Continent would use such a method to deal with him. Moreover, he suspected that these mosquitoes were also from the Ark Continent.
The timing of these mosquitoes' attack was too good. In the afternoon, they didn't encounter any attacks from the Ark Continent, nor did they encounter any attacks during the night. Just as they were about to relax, these mosquitoes suddenly appeared. If one were to say that these mosquitoes had nothing to do with the Ark Continent, then even if one were to beat him to death, he wouldn't believe it.
After the Ark Continent's 10,000-man team retreated, another 10,000-man team attacked and retreated. They didn't stay for long, then a third team, a fourth team, a fifth team, and so on ….
While they were dealing with the remaining mosquitoes, their continent had already been attacked by the Ark Continent's cavalry.
In just an hour, the number of attacks they received was almost equal to the number of attacks they received in a day. It can be seen that the people from the Ark Continent were waiting for this opportunity, but Thunder Yun couldn't do anything about it.
He didn't dare to send out small groups to attack the other cities of the Ark Continent. This was because he knew that as long as he dared to send out small groups, the other party would certainly annihilate them. It can be said that they were now in a dilemma.
Thunder Yun loudly ordered, "Peripheral personnel, pay attention. Everyone else, kill the mosquitoes!" Along with his command, the Divine Race soldiers on the periphery began to deal with the Ark Continent's cavalry. At the same time, the other people went all out to kill the mosquitoes. In less than an hour, all of the mosquitoes were exterminated.
In this hour, they were attacked by more than ten waves of cavalry. In just two hours, the number of attacks they received was more than the number of attacks they received during the day. Moreover, their casualties were also very high. The 30 waves of cavalry had caused about 40 thousand casualties. And with the addition of the mosquitoes, the Divine Race had already suffered 50 thousand casualties. Moreover, the number of casualties would continue to increase as the Ark Continent's cavalry continued to attack.
It wasn't until dawn that the Ark Continent's cavalry stopped their attacks. The Divine Race people could finally relax. In just one night, they had already lost about 100 thousand people. And with the number of casualties during the day, the Divine Race's casualties had reached 150 thousand!
When he heard this number, Thunder Yun felt like he was in a dream. He really hoped that he was dreaming, that all of this was just an illusion. But when he looked at the tired Fei 'er beside him, Thunder Yun knew that this wasn't an illusion, this was reality.
Thunder Yun rubbed his temples, then he turned to Fei 'er and said, "Beat the drums and gather the generals." Fei' er nodded, then he went outside and started to beat the 100 drums outside the City Lord's Mansion.
Before long, several people wearing white robes arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. In the Divine Race, only Generals were allowed to wear white robes. It can be said that wearing white robes was a sign of status.
On the other hand, Thunder Yun liked to wear armor. This made him different from the other Generals. In the Divine Race, the number of people who wore white robes was at least 500 thousand. And now, there were more than 40 of them in the City Lord's Mansion.
Thunder Yun was currently sitting in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion. There were some chairs in the hall that were placed there after Thunder Yun moved in. When Zhao Hai left, he took everything that he could from the City Lord's Mansion. He didn't leave anything useful behind.
After the Generals entered the hall, they gave Thunder Yun a salute. Then they sat on the chairs according to their status. Cloud Ying sat in the first row while Silver Shuke sat in the second.
After everyone was present, Thunder Yun looked at the group and said, "Our journey hasn't been very smooth. We haven't faced the Ark Continent's army yet, but we've already lost more than a hundred thousand people. For the Divine Race, this is unprecedented. Everyone, tell us what you think about this matter." Thunder Yun nodded and said, "Alright, let's talk about this matter.
Everyone was silent, they didn't know what to say. After some time, Cloud Ying opened his mouth and said, "General, I discovered something. Yesterday, we had a big fight with the blood mosquitoes. There should be a lot of them. Although we killed a lot of them, I didn't find any corpses inside or outside the city. This matter is very strange." Cloud Ying nodded, he didn't know what to say.
Upon hearing Cloud Ying's words, many of the Generals reacted. Indeed, they had fought with the Blood Mosquitoes yesterday. Although some of them had been burned to ashes by their Fire Element Magic, there should still be some mosquito corpses left behind. But now, not a single mosquito corpse could be seen inside or outside the city. This matter was really strange.
Thunder Yun nodded and said, "You're right, you're very observant. I also noticed that the mosquitoes were attracted by the people from the Ark Continent. Otherwise, the timing of their appearance wouldn't have been so coincidental. It seems like the people from the Ark Continent have a lot of methods." Thunder Yun nodded and said, "You're right.
Upon hearing Thunder Yun, everyone couldn't help but be startled. However, Generals weren't fools. They immediately responded. Not to mention the corpses of the mosquitoes, even the corpses of the Divine Race weren't found. Naturally, most of the corpses were vaporized by the blood lightning beads. However, most of them were taken away by Zhao Hai.
Cloud Ying knit his brows and said, "If those blood devouring mosquitoes were really from the Ark Continent, then we'll be in a lot of trouble. What do we do if they manage to get more blood devouring mosquitoes?"
Thunder Yun knit his brows and said, "Blood mosquitoes aren't easy to get. Otherwise, the Ark Continent would have already used them. However, we can't just ignore them. If we encounter a blood mosquito attack again, we'll form teams of three. One person will kill the mosquitoes while the other two will rest. This way, the mosquitoes wouldn't pose a threat to us. What we need to pay attention to is the Ark Continent's cavalry. Everyone, think of a way to deal with the Ark Continent's cavalry."
Everyone frowned, they didn't speak for a long time. Then one of them stood up and bowed to Thunder Yun, "General, I think that we're relying too much on our Domains. Domains have their own attack range, but their attack range isn't as far as the javelins of the Ark Continent's 9th ranks. We can only passively take a beating, this isn't worth it. Therefore, I want to do the same as the Ark Continent's cavalry. We need to cut down some trees and make some wooden javelins. Although we can't equip them with blood lightning beads, with our God-ranks' strength, the javelins' lethality wouldn't be small. Most importantly, we would have a way to counterattack, we wouldn't be completely passive anymore."
Upon hearing this, Thunder Yun's eyes couldn't help but shine, he looked at the person and said, "Good, Yun Yi, your idea is very good. Although these javelins can't deal with the mosquitoes, it should be enough to deal with the Ark Continent's cavalry. Moreover, it's very simple to make. Good, when everyone returns, immediately inform everyone to cut down trees and make javelins for me. If there aren't any trees to cut down, then just pick up some stones to carry with you. In any case, we can't afford to be beaten like this!"
Otherwise, we'll just have to suffer. "Everyone agreed, they also thought that this was a good idea. The gap between God-ranks and 9th ranks was very big. The javelins and stones that they throw would have a longer range than 9th ranks. When the time comes, they wouldn't even wait for the enemy cavalry to reach them. Even if they couldn't kill them, they wouldn't be able to let them off easily.
They didn't want to use this method to eliminate the Ark Continent's cavalry. It was impossible to do so since they weren't as fast as the enemy. However, this method could reduce their losses. As long as they don't have to worry about the enemy cavalry's harassment, they would be able to drive straight towards the Ark Continent's base. When the time comes, the people of the Ark Continent would have no choice but to go all out against them.
