In the Jinyao Territory.
On the plains where the 'gate' was located, all the troops of the allied human army were on standby.
The plains of Jinyao Territory were vast and flat, most suitable for cavalry to fight on. However, this time, the allied human army didn't use the arrow formation, which was most suitable for cavalry frontal assaults. Instead, they used the geese formation, which was composed of several large phalanxes.
This was a battle formation that spread out horizontally. The phalanxes on the left and right flanks were arranged in echelons, somewhat resembling a 'V' shape. The cavalry was placed on the two flanks. Not only could this formation unleash the power of the two flanks, it could also effectively protect the flanks and the rear. However, this' weakness' was only relative to the geese formation. This was Jinyao Territory, the home ground of the allied human army. Not only were there catapults, magic crystal cannons, and all sorts of other military equipment in the rear, but there were even more hidden troops, ready to ambush and replace them at any time. This' weakness' had instead become a strong point filled with traps.
There were about 800,000 soldiers participating in this battle. In terms of numbers, this was only a small portion of the allied human army's total military strength. However, this was the most suitable military force that this plain could accommodate. Moreover, these 800,000 soldiers were the most elite troops of the allied human army and were also equipped with the best weapons.
The two flanks were heavy cavalry. On the left flanks, the cavalry and warhorses were all equipped with sturdy armor. The cavalry's armor also contained light and durable cloth armor that could further increase their defense. Apart from a longsword, every cavalry was equipped with a five-meter long lance. The tip of this huge lance was a special armor-piercing point that could easily penetrate thick armor. However, the body of the lance wasn't made of metal, but special hardwood. In order to save costs, Bin Fei had used these lances because they were extremely powerful. These outstanding knights could easily penetrate thick walls with the help of their powerful horses. However, this also had a disadvantage. Once the lance stabbed into the enemy, it couldn't be withdrawn. Not only would the wrists and arms of the knights be sprained or even fractured, it would also affect the follow-up troops' charge. Therefore, the lance was a single-use item. However, the damage it could cause was also the most terrifying. On this plain terrain, there was almost nothing that could directly stop the charge of the heavy cavalry.
The core of the heavy cavalry was the Long Huang Empire's most elite Dragonclaw Cavalry Corps, commanded by Tristan. As the strongest offensive spearhead, Tristan displayed a calmness that was completely different from his usual irascibility.
The heavy cavalry on the right was made up of the Dwarf Clan's Bear Cavalry. The war bears they raised were even fiercer and more ferocious. The aura they emitted could easily destroy the fighting spirit of ordinary mounts. The Bear Cavalry was best at fighting in the mountains, and they were far more powerful than ordinary cavalry on the plains. In addition to the Bear Cavalry, the commander of the Dwarves was the young Hill Dwarf King Orfgar. In addition to the Bear Cavalry, there were also two large infantry legions, the Shield Warriors and the Axe Warriors. The Dwarves were brave and good at fighting. They also had a great talent for magic resistance. Coupled with the weapons and equipment that they forged themselves, they were known as one of the strongest infantry on the battlefield.
The reason why it was said to be "one of" was because there was another race whose close combat ability was equally terrifying, or even more so, the Orcs.
Everyone knew that the Orcs were warlike and valiant. In the past, the Orc Empire was a powerful existence that could only be resisted by the alliance of all the human countries. However, after the internal division of the empire, the Orcs encountered a decline from the peak of their prosperity. They gradually withdrew from the political stage and retreated to the harsh conditions of the Nightmare Plain. A few years ago, they were almost exterminated by the Church of Light. This time, they actually recklessly took the initiative to join the human allied forces. Among these Orcs, there were also the strongest Behemoth Warriors. They could transform into Behemoths that had the strength of the Giant Dragons.
The equipment of this batch of Orcs was different from the previous ones. They were no longer ordinary wooden sticks or leather armor, but heavy metal flails, hammers, and other heavy weapons. They also wore shiny silver chain armor that could effectively reduce the damage from long-range attacks. These equipment were given to them by Rex The Great. However, this "benefit" did not come for nothing. In today's battle, the Orcs would be the first to charge, and they might also be the first to be sacrificed as cannon fodder.
If it wasn't for the fact that this battle was so important, the Orcs would not have been able to obtain these equipment at all.
Compared to the "barbarians" like the dwarves and orcs, the elves appeared elegant and beautiful. However, no one dared to look down on these handsome men and beautiful women. They were recognized as the most terrifying long-range attackers on the battlefield, and there was no one who could compete with them.
Other than their outstanding long-range shooting skills, the Elves also had a strong team of Magicians and an army of Swordsmen with extremely high attack power.
The commander of the Elves was the First Princess, Phyllis. Even the little princess, Michelle, had participated in this battle. If there were no accidents, these were the only two daughters of the Elven Queen, Liv. One of them would become the next Elven Queen. It was very likely that this battle was an important test and training for the future Elven Queen. Thus, the Elves had changed their attitude of watching the battle in the past and sent out a huge army. There were a total of four armies: the Magic Archer Army, the Magic Spear Army, the Magician Army, and the Swordsmen Army.
The Long Huang Empire's old ally, the Dragons, had also sent out their elite forces. Other than the Long Huang Empire's Dragonriders, there was also a group of powerful Dragons. At the moment, no one knew where these Dragons were lying in ambush. Perhaps they had already transformed into human forms and mixed in with the ordinary soldiers. This would be a hidden killing machine.
Even without the 'external aid' of the four major races, the human army was still very powerful. The highest commander, Rex The Great, was at the bottom of the 'V', and could command the changes on the two flanks as if he was his own arm. Behind him, there was the strongest Griffin Coalition Army. Their strength was inferior to the Dragonriders, but their numbers far surpassed the Dragonriders. They would become the most important fighting force in the air.
Not long ago, Rex The Great had mobilized everyone before the battle. His extremely provocative speech had caused everyone's blood to boil. Their fighting spirit and morale were unprecedentedly high, and they were only waiting for the battle.
As they waited, the enemy finally arrived.
The light of the 'Gate' flashed, and groups of figures appeared in the vision of the allied human army.
Cavalry.
They were all black cavalrymen.
Black magic horses, black armor, and black knights formed a sharp contrast with the cavalry on the two flanks.
However, the armor of these black knights seemed to be weaker, and they did not have long spears for charging. They only carried bows and arrows on their backs, and held machetes in their hands.
Rex The Great and many other commanders were stunned. Not the heavy-armored beast cavalry, but … light cavalry?
In this kind of terrain where there was not much space to run and fight, they actually sent out so many light cavalry?
If it was a head-on confrontation, the light cavalry and the heavy cavalry were not even on the same level. Was there something wrong with the Demons' brains? Or did they not even have the most basic information about the Jinyao Territory?
As the commander of the heavy cavalry on the left wing of the allied human army, Tristan clearly saw the commander on the black horse at the front. It was Francis the Demons who was the messenger that day! Thinking of Rex The Great encouraging him to cut off Francis' head with his own hands, Tristan could not help but clench the sword in his hand.
If the allied human army launched an attack now, they could easily crush these light cavalry. However, Rex The Great did not give the order to attack, and no one acted rashly. Because everyone knew that this was just the tip of the iceberg of the Demons' army.
More and more black light cavalry entered Jinyao Territory, forming a black arrow formation. It seemed that the Demons were indeed planning to use these light cavalry to attack at the front.
After the black arrow formation of the light cavalry, the type of troops finally changed. On both sides of the arrow were huge square shields that were four meters high and looked very heavy. At least three soldiers were required to hold them. The layers of huge shields blocked the line of sight, and no one knew what was hidden behind them.
The next core square formation that appeared was the infantry type. The most conspicuous were the heavily armored taurens holding huge battle axes in their hands. The taurens were the best blacksmiths in the Demon Realm and extremely powerful soldiers. Whether it was forging skills or combat power, they were not inferior to the dwarves on the ground.
The square formation next to the taurens was the medusas and dark elves. There were also a very small number of medusas on the ground. Their names were often associated with words such as "petrification", "snake demon", and "devil". It was the first time that they saw so many fully armed medusas in front of them. The medusas' archery was amazing. Even if they could not match the elves, they were far better than ordinary archers. The dark elves were known as the fallen elves. Their appearance aroused the strong killing intent of the elf warriors in the Fairy City of Silver Moon. What made the elves even more eager to fight was that these fallen elves were holding the same magic rifles in their hands.
The square formation of soldiers appeared behind them, still maintaining the arrow formation. In other words, the entire army of Demons was a huge arrow. This meant: attack! Attack! Or attack!
The row of huge figures that appeared at the end caused a commotion among the human allied forces.
This was a huge human figure, about nine meters tall, made of dark gold metal from head to toe, and its eyes flashed with a pale blue light. Someone couldn't help but exclaim, "War puppet!"
The troops in the magic game "Endless Warrior Online", the Demons actually created this kind of war weapon! And there were at least thousands of them!
If this big guy really had the kind of power in the game, then it was almost equivalent to … a thousand giant dragons!
The formation of both sides had been set up. On the plain, a geese with two wings and an arrowhead faced each other from afar. This was the strongest duel between the two worlds. It was about to start.
Today might be the key day to change the two worlds.
Compared to this battle, the eruption of the Nightmare Volcano that happened at the same time was just a "trivial" event. However, almost no one knew that this was the existence that would truly change the world.
The erupting volcano was like a roaring demon, spewing out countless violent blood-red. Thick smoke rose into the sky, connecting with the red sky. The suffocating air was filled with a scorching heat that could destroy everything. Countless magma flowed rapidly on the violently trembling earth.
In the red sky, a diamond-shaped pattern appeared faintly, like an eye that was about to open, overlooking the spreading destruction.
It was also overlooking the cloaked figure who was holding the withered staff and struggling to stand up, even though the figure's strange gaze was also "overlooking" the sky.
The originally white hands of the cloaked figure were already filled with wrinkles. He trembled as he held the withered staff that was covered in cracks. This wooden staff was like his entire body, and it could break at any time.
The cloaked figure lowered his head and panted. He did not raise his head to look at the sky. However, in his soul's senses, the vague diamond-shaped eye in the thick smoke suddenly became clear. It turned from an illusion to a substance and slowly opened. This was a pupil that was burning with flames. Its gaze was filled with absolute destruction and hatred.
In the sky, near the diamond-shaped eye, red lightning began to flash. The cloaked figure squinted his eyes and subconsciously looked at the scorching volcano crater. In the middle of the high-speed eruption of magma, a ball of flame was slowly rising. This flame was like a flower, slowly blooming layer by layer. In the middle of the flame, the color of blood became thicker and thicker, condensing into a human figure.
It was the naked body of a woman.
At first glance, the curvy figure was very alluring. However, upon closer inspection, it was chilling and terrifying.
Her crimson red hair fluttered in the flames. Her dark red skin was covered with spiderweb-like patterns. Between the cracks of the patterns, a dazzling golden light could be seen. The fingernails on her hands were very long and slightly curved, revealing an incomparably sharp edge. On the faintly delicate face, there was a pair of strange eyes. Just like the "eyes" in the cloaked figure's heart, it had already opened.
