As matters stood, he could only summon the fire elite zombie, wood elite zombie, earth elite zombie, and Little Skull at the same time. Otherwise, if Han Shuo wanted to resist the attacks of the bandits and the Church of Light's Kosse's group by himself, he would have no chance of winning.
Kosse was heavily surrounded by the six Templar Knights, holding 'Revelation' in his hands and still chanting hymns. Halos of holy light slowly drifted out from the 'Revelation', purifying the kingdom of death that Han Shuo had painstakingly created. Han Shuo didn't continue to hover in the air to kill Kosse. Instead, he slowly floated backwards.
With a wave of his hand, Han Shuo threw out the Blood Seether. As soon as the Blood Seether flew out of Han Shuo's hand, it immediately emitted a thick bloody mist. This demonic treasure that Han Shuo had meticulously refined didn't contain any aura of death. Naturally, it wouldn't fear the purification of the holy light.
The bloody mist of the Blood Seether spread out. The bandits that were enveloped by it all began to wail miserably. The Blood Seether could stimulate the blood in their bodies, causing it to rapidly flow through their bodies, causing them to explode one by one.
When the blood rampaged through their bodies, their bodies would explode when they couldn't bear the burden. Wherever the bloody mist passed, the bandits would beat their chests and stomp their feet, howling in pain. However, they couldn't stop the rapid flow of blood within their bodies. The crisp popping sounds indicated that their bones had been broken by the blood. Then, before they could react, the broken bones pierced through their soft skin, causing even more blood to gush out. One by one, the bandits enveloped in the bloody mist exploded and died.
During this process, Han Shuo brandished the skeletal staff in his left hand and also had the time to summon the Little Skull, earth elite zombie, wood elite zombie, and fire elite zombie. Under the cover of the bloody mist from the Blood Seether, the earth elite zombie was the first to burrow into the ground, stealthily heading in Kosse's direction.
The little skeleton carried the wood elite zombie and flew into the sky, landing directly on the city walls of Brettel City. Under Han Shuo's orders, the little skeleton and the wood elite zombie were responsible for the safety of Brettel City. Once bandits rushed up the city walls, the little skeleton and the wood elite zombie would be responsible for killing them.
The fire lotus imprint on the big-headed fire elite zombie's forehead became more and more obvious. As soon as he flashed out from the other dimension, pillars of fire shot out from his body. The fire lotus on his forehead was like a raging flame. As it rapidly throbbed, fire lotuses gradually grew larger and larger.
The Fire Lotus was a treasure of the fire attribute. The fire elite zombie gradually grasped how to use it after obtaining it. The lotus flames that floated out from the Fire Lotus were only the size of a fingernail at first. However, this was obviously not the true form of the Fire Lotus. The Fire Lotus swayed in the wind, the blazing flames gradually growing larger until each of them was the size of a large bowl.
The fire elite zombie's entire body was covered in raging flames. Lotus flames floated out from the mark on his forehead, gradually growing larger and larger until they were the size of large bowls. They flew towards the bandits in the surroundings, and any bandit that came into contact with a spark was instantly set ablaze.
The fierceness and terror of this kind of flame exceeded their imaginations. Even if they quickly poured water from their water bags, they still couldn't extinguish the spark. A fingertip-sized spark would ignite anything it touched. Skin, clothes, even armor and weapons seemed to be able to fuel the ferocity of the flame.
In the span of a few breaths, those bandits that came into contact with the spark all screamed miserably and became flaming men. Before they could cry out in pain from being burned, an unpleasant burnt smell wafted from their bodies.
The flaming men turned black, the living turned into the dead. This process was so short. Under the extremely painful and bewitching flames, dozens of bandits near the fire elite zombie turned into charcoal and collapsed.
On the other side, the earth elite zombie, who was deep underground, took advantage of the chaos above his head and slowly snuck into the ground by relying on his remarkable ability as a darling of the earth. He quickly ran towards Kosse and the others.
As a Red-robed Archbishop of the Church of Light, while Kosse was extremely against heretics, he did indeed possess a bit of impartiality and compassion. He watched as bandits were burned into black chunks of flesh in front of him. Chanting a hymn, Kosse shouted to the Temple Knights around him, "Save them!"
Han Shuo continued to use the Blood Seether to reap lives while focusing his attention on Kosse. Seeing the Temple Knights slowly approaching while protecting Kosse, Han Shuo immediately gave the earth elite zombie the order to launch a surprise attack.
Violent tremors accompanied by muffled sounds came from the depths of the earth. Earth spikes abruptly rose from the ground, piercing towards the Church of Light who had their attention focused on the front. Caught off guard, the Temple Knights and white priests of the Church of Light were stabbed to death in an instant.
The earth spikes pierced through the feet of those knights precisely. As a result, those well-armored knights fell off their warhorses while howling miserably. Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem The earth spikes pierced through the soles of those knights precisely. As a result, those knights fell off their warhorses while howling miserably.
The white priests who purified the souls on the battlefield were the targets of Han Shuo's deep hatred. Their purification of the souls of the dead caused the Demonslayer Edge to be unable to obtain enough soul energy. It could even be said that it indirectly prevented the Demonslayer Edge from evolving further.
Up until now, the Demonslayer Edge had yet to truly possess a primary soul. The Demonslayer Edge would only be able to evolve into a primary soul after absorbing enough soul energy. Only then would the Demonslayer Edge truly become a peerless weapon in the truest sense.
Coming to Brettel City this time, the continuous large-scale battles had allowed Han Shuo to be like a fish in water. The soul energy of the dead was devoured by Han Shuo's Demonslayer Edge, rapidly accelerating the Demonslayer Edge's growth. Han Shuo even felt that the Demonslayer Edge wasn't far from its final form. He couldn't allow it to be destroyed by these hateful priests of the Church of Light.
Therefore, when Kosse and the others approached, Han Shuo gave the earth elite zombie the order to kill the white clothed priests first. The white priests who didn't need to fight in close combat naturally didn't wear armor. Under the attacks of the earth spikes, every one of the white priests, apart from Kosse who was firmly protected by the Temple Knights, couldn't escape from Han Shuo's murderous hands.
"Demon, we must eliminate this demon!" Kosse trembled as he tightly grasped 'Revelation' in front of his chest. Seeing the white priests who didn't receive the same treatment as him being stabbed to death, he angrily yelled at Han Shuo in the distance.
"You brought this upon yourselves. I've never provoked your Church of Light, it was you who chased me to death and refused to let go. Hmph, from now on, I will kill any Church of Light disciple who dares to offend us. I don't believe I can't kill all of you. "Han Shuo arrogantly floated in the air, coldly yelling as he looked at the trembling Kosse in the distance.
"Shoot him to death! Hatchets, pikes, javelins, hurry!" The bandit leader, Fass, roared loudly with extreme heartache as he watched his subordinates drown in the sea of fire.
The remaining two ballistae aimed at the fire elite zombie in the middle of the sea of fire. All kinds of sharp weapons flew towards the fire elite zombie in the middle of the sea of fire. The fire elite zombie wantonly controlled the lotus flames within the sea of fire, causing the lotus armor on his body to ring out.
The various ballistae that flew towards his body had yet to truly land on his body when the sharp arrows and sharp blades were burned by the raging flames. When they finally landed on his body, not only was their power greatly reduced, but they also couldn't display their penetrative power after the metal melted. In addition, the fire elite zombie would naturally reconstruct his body after being formed, and the reconstructed body was sufficiently sturdy, so he didn't suffer much damage.
However, even the five ultimate elite zombies that were nurtured in the five extreme places of heaven and earth didn't have limitless energy within their bodies. Just like how there was no absolute eternal power in everything. After twenty to thirty lotus flames floated on the fire elite zombie's forehead, the fire elite zombie finally showed signs of fatigue and sent a signal to Han Shuo.
Han Shuo could clearly sense the fire elite zombie's thoughts. The fire elite zombie, who had yet to fully mature, had released such a large amount of energy all at once. Naturally, he would be somewhat exhausted. Sparks flew everywhere the twenty to thirty lotus flames passed. None of the bandits that came into contact with them were lucky enough to be burnt to death.
In just a short period of time, more than three hundred charred corpses were left on the ground forever. This was the result of the fire elite zombie not having fully grasped the power of the Fire Lotus. Once the fire elite zombie slowly matured and became more adept at controlling the Fire Lotus, the destructive power he would be able to cause would be even more terrifying.
In addition, when the five ultimate elite zombies were first refined, each of them would naturally possess a set of cultivation methods. In other words, the five ultimate elite zombies that had just been born were actually in their weakest form. Once they slowly evolved using the cultivation method, their strength would slowly grow stronger with the passage of time. Their use of their innate abilities would also become more and more terrifying.
Han Shuo had no doubt that when the five ultimate elite zombies evolved to the end, they would possess the mystical power to destroy heaven and earth. Not to mention that the five ultimate elite zombies could also form a large formation. Now that the water elite zombie was also in the process of being nurtured, along with the metal elite zombie that was the most difficult to appear, Han Shuo would be able to practice the large formation.
Having used up all of his energy in one go, the fire elite zombie was already showing signs of fatigue. With a wave of Han Shuo's skeletal staff, the fire elite zombie disappeared into the other dimension amidst the raging flames. After the fire elite zombie left this plane of existence, the twenty to thirty lotus flames that had lost their source of energy gradually dispersed into the sky after claiming the lives of another fifty bandits.
The bandits that had been dodging the lotus flames in all directions, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves, all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the deadly lotus flames disappear one after another. They silently cursed their leader in their hearts. What did he mean by there wasn't too much danger? Brettel City, which hadn't had any city defenses in the past, was simply an incomparably terrifying demon castle. All sorts of strange and bizarre things could be found here.
By now, more than half of the six thousand bandits that Fass, the leader of the Greenfire Bandits, had brought with him, had died. More than three thousand two hundred people had mysteriously died in this siege, including more than a thousand true elites.
Fass wanted to cry as he looked at the corpses strewn all over the ground. Brettel City was like a demon city baring its sinister fangs. It was like a tireless machine that harvested lives, constantly displaying its ruthlessness and cruelty.
The elites that had managed to reach the top of Brettel City's city walls with great difficulty were all sent flying down from the high walls under the attacks of the other two strange undead creatures. Practically all of them were dead before they even hit the ground. This was the work of Little Skull and the wood elite zombie.
The bandit leader Fass had thought that the appearance of the Red Archbishop of the Church of Light, the natural enemy of necromancers, would allow them to easily break through Brettel City's defenses. However, when he saw Little Skull and the wood elite zombie jumping about under the illumination of the holy light, easily killing his subordinates that had climbed up the city walls with great difficulty, he cursed Kosse's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.
What nightmare of a necromancer's natural enemy? What emissary of the Continent of Light? It's all f * cking bullshit!
The Red Archbishop with the divine weapon "Revelation" in his hand couldn't even purify a tiny skeleton and a few zombies. He's f * cking done us in!
Fass cursed incessantly in his heart as he watched the bandits explode one by one inside Han Shuo's Blood Seether. Then, he looked at Kosse and the others from the Church of Light, who were in a complete mess and couldn't even fend for themselves. Fass rapidly thought of a countermeasure.
By now, Fass could see that Brettel City was relying solely on Han Shuo's support. If he were to retreat with his tail between his legs after losing so many of his brothers, the reputation of his Greenfire Bandit Band would definitely plummet once word of this got out.
But if they didn't leave now, who knew how many more unimaginable methods that terrifying city lord of Brettel City would have? In the depths of Fass's heart, he was truly afraid of Han Shuo. He secretly cursed the guy who'd leaked the information and instigated him to come over a hundred times.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Bolts of crossbow bolts shot out from the ballistae. Tongues of flame shot out from the war chariots and landed on the Temple Knights of the Church of Light, instantly causing three Temple Knights to be blown away along with their warhorses.
After resting for a long time, the exhausted soldiers on Brettel City's walls finally recovered their strength. They once again controlled the sharp weapons beside them to spit out dazzling tongues of flame.
"Motherf * cker! Retreat! All of you, retreat!" Fass no longer hesitated when he saw the flames from the war chariots soar into the sky. Although a million gold coins was tempting, he might not be able to obtain it in the current situation. The war chariots moving again meant that the soldiers on the city walls had regained their fighting strength.
Thinking back to the terrifying destructive power of the war chariots, ballistae, and catapults, then looking at his subordinates, Fass painfully gave the order to retreat.
The bandits had long since been scared witless and had only been waiting for Fass' order. When they heard the heavenly order to retreat, the bandits no longer dared to stay. They followed behind Fass and fled into the distance.
"Useless Church of Light, what kind of emissaries of God Of Light are you? You can't even purify a few dark creatures. I really feel ashamed for you, ptui!" When Fass passed by Kosse and the others, he stopped his warhorse and glared at Kosse, who was in the middle of the Temple Knights, with a look of disdain and anger. He spat on the ground to vent his anger before leaving.
In the beginning, Fass had been toyed with by Han Shuo. When the people of the Church of Light had suddenly appeared and purified the corpses under the illumination of the holy light, Fass had thought that he had seen the dawn of victory. Who would have thought that the holy light wasn't purified enough? The few undead creatures that had reappeared had actually caused such great damage to them. Fass felt that he had been played by Kosse again. One could imagine the sullen feeling in his heart.
If Fass hadn't known of the Church of Light's influence on the continent, if he hadn't known that the Temple Knights were one of the trump cards of the Church of Light, the savage Fass would've mercilessly led his subordinates to tear these useless followers of the Church of Light to pieces.
"Shoot! Shoot those people in white!" Han Shuo, who was floating in the air, put away the Blood Seeker, which had been reduced to a bloody cloth, and shouted at the soldiers on the city wall.
The soldiers, who had recovered their strength, obeyed Han Shuo's orders and aimed their war chariots and ballistae at the Church of Light. The remaining firepower violently fired at the Church of Light, causing the Temple Knights of the Church of Light to be thrown off their feet. Even Kosse was almost hit by a goblin bomb.
"Cardinal, what do you think of the situation?" A Temple Knight with the pattern of a cross on his chest was protecting Kosse with all his might as he asked hesitantly.
Red Archbishop Kosse, who had just been insulted by the departing Fass, had an ugly expression on his face. He awkwardly dodged a goblin bomb, then closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Another failure. It looks like I'll have to see the Pope myself. Let's go, leave this place immediately! "
As soon as Kosse gave his order, the Temple Knight waved the sword in his hand and pointed behind him. The Temple Knights who had suddenly arrived this time dragged the thirty-seven corpses onto their warhorses and gradually rode away from the smoky battlefield, not leaving behind any belongings of the dead.
"They're gone, they've all retreated!" A soldier who had lost all his strength looked at the gradually disappearing enemies and revealed a somewhat ugly but sincere smile.
The soldiers who could still stand looked at Han Shuo, who stood proudly in the air like a demon god. They felt that as long as Han Shuo was present, Brettel City would never be breached by anyone again.
Han Shuo had used the yin demons to watch the departing enemies from afar. He knew that they had truly retreated. Looking at the corpses strewn all over the ground in front of Brettel City that was riddled with holes, Han Shuo shouted, "Soldiers who still have strength, guard this place well. Don't relax for even a moment."
These people were truly exhausted. Han Shuo could still hear deafening explosions coming from the direction of the other two city gates. He understood that the battles on at least two sides hadn't ended yet. However, the soldiers on this most desperate of battlefields had long since lost the strength to rush to either side. Han Shuo also understood that they had used every ounce of strength they had, so he decided to head there himself.
The citizens of Brettel City were on tenterhooks when they heard the weak cheers from the soldiers on Han Shuo's side. They were afraid that they would be implicated in the massacre of the city, so they paid close attention to any changes in that direction. There were even a few brave citizens who rushed to the top of the city walls and witnessed the entire battle.
Therefore, as soon as the Temple Knights, Fass, and the others had retreated, the citizens in this area started cheering. The citizens, whose hearts had been filled with fear, were now filled with a strong sense of happiness and excitement. Being able to keep their lives from being implicated in the massacre of the city made them feel very happy.
For so many years, the city lords of Brettel City had always been one step ahead of them. But after Han Shuo's arrival, they had finally subverted their understanding. He'd practically single-handedly turned the tide, firmly defending the enormous Brettel City with his miraculous powers.
Although victory had come with great difficulty and was full of twists and turns, the fruit of victory was incomparably sweet. They had always been struggling at death's door, but now they felt incomparable excitement at this moment of victory, because they were the witnesses of this moment.
As the citizens on Han Shuo's side cheered, the citizens on the other three sides also gradually revealed smiling faces. Apart from the soldiers at the city gate that Faulke was guarding, there were even citizens who took the initiative to join in the fight against the enemy. These citizens, who didn't know how to use the defensive equipment, worked together to move huge stones and place them on the catapults. They watched as the stones they'd placed on the catapults fell into the bandit group and caused terrifying destruction.
When the stones that Faulke's side had originally prepared were used up, the citizens volunteered to move the stone tables and chairs from the nearest houses and use them as defensive stones to hurl them out, dealing an unforgettable blow to the invaders.
The city gate that Dick, Chester, and Fabian were guarding was facing the Flying Dragon Bandits. This city gate had two magic crystal cannons, four war chariots, seven ballistae, six catapults, and a thousand elite soldiers. Dick and the other two didn't have any experience in commanding an army, so Faulke had arranged for an officer who was good at defending the city. It was precisely because they were worried that their side wouldn't be able to handle the heavy burden that Han Shuo and the others had placed more firepower on this side.
The leader of the Flying Dragon Bandits, Afie, was a sinister, scheming, and vicious villain. He'd had other thoughts from the start. When Fass' signal soared into the sky, Afie didn't immediately launch an attack on the city gate. Instead, he waited for a while until he saw the response signals from three different directions. Only then did Afie give the order.
Afie was already a bit scared out of his wits from the response signals. He had his subordinates send out signals in three colors: blue and yellow. Yellow meant that this side's attack was very successful, blue meant that the attack was somewhat difficult, and red meant that this side's attack had met with a fatal blow.
The response signals from the three sides, from Han Shuo's and Faulke's sides, were all red. This meant that the attack from the two sides had met with a fatal blow right from the start. Because they'd used the strategy of luring the enemy in, the composed Dorcas didn't start with a fierce firepower. Therefore, the Flying Dragon Bandits who were observing from that side had sent out a blue signal.
The two red and one blue signals didn't look good at all. Afie wanted to preserve his strength, so he ordered some of his subordinates to attack the city gate that Dick and Chester were guarding. Chester and the others had never faced such a situation before. When they saw Afie's bandits charging over, they immediately gave the order to fiercely bombard them.
Because Han Shuo and the others were worried that they wouldn't be able to handle it, their firepower was actually the fiercest. When the two magic crystal cannons and war chariots spat out tongues of flame, and the ballistae and catapults revealed their terrifying destructive power, more than half of the several hundred bandits that Afie had sent out were instantly killed.
The startled Afie immediately gave the order to observe. He was already a bit scared.
After luring the enemy over, Dorcas's side suddenly erupted with firepower. The area that was extremely close to the city wall exploded with terrifying destructive power in an instant. Several hundred bandits who'd reached the city wall were instantly drowned in cannon fire.
The bandit who'd originally sent out a blue signal shot out two red signals in a row when he saw the originally calm and collected cannons suddenly become so fierce.
Afie was already a bit on edge. When he saw the originally blue signal turn into two red signals, he immediately gave the order to retreat another hundred meters, forbidding anyone from continuing to attack.
When Fass retreated, Afie didn't send out a single soldier. He only sat on his warhorse and stared at Dick and the others on the city wall in the distance. It was as if he was preparing to overwhelm the other side in terms of momentum. He was waiting for the other bandit groups to attack Brettel City and take advantage of the situation. When that time came, he would make his move on those bastards on the city wall.
When the news of Fass' failure was spread by Afie's subordinates, the alarmed Afie understood that he definitely wouldn't be able to obtain any benefits this time. Without another word, Afie made a prompt decision to immediately give the order to retreat. The group of bandits that had surged forth left behind two hundred corpses and swiftly retreated into the distance.
Chester and Fabian, who'd experienced this kind of scene for the first time, looked at Afie hatefully galloping away. They thought to themselves complacently, "It looks like our side is indeed powerful. Could it be that I've scared them out of their wits just by looking at them from afar?"
