The Centaur Warriors that suddenly appeared tore through the Orc army's defense line with ease. The Orc soldiers were already exhausted from fighting the Northern Fortress City's soldiers, and they did not expect the Centaur Warriors to attack them from behind.
The Bloodthirsty Frenzy from before had used up a lot of their stamina. Even with their powerful Physique, the orcs still felt tired. Facing these centaur warriors, who were no weaker than them, they were defeated like a landslide.
The orcs might be tough, but they were not fearless of death. The sudden attack of the centaurs had completely shattered their will to continue fighting. With no hope of victory in sight, the morale of the orc army dropped to the lowest point. The morale of the orc soldiers had also collapsed.
The centaurs did not all charge forward. The ones at the front were all tall and muscular centaur warriors in metal armor. There were not many of them, only around two hundred in total. Following behind them were four hundred centaur warriors in metal scale armor, and at the very back were centaur warriors in leather armor.
Another group of centaur warriors was roaming not far away, firing arrows to help the charging centaurs take care of any threats.
The orc army was utterly defeated. The soldiers of Northguard City also began their counterattack. The impatient barbarian warriors swung their giant axes and charged forward.
"Berserk!"
"Charge!"
"Whirlwind Slash!"
The orcs, who had lost all will to resist, were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Wherever the barbarian warriors went, all the enemies were cut down.
The barbarian's charge caused the orcs' already disorganized formation to become even more chaotic. The soldiers of Northguard City behind the barbarians were able to harvest the orcs more easily.
Orc Chieftain Gotanron's face was ashen. He never thought that the situation would deteriorate to such an extent. A mere two-thousand-strong human army actually blocked the attack of his ten-thousand-strong Orc army in a head-on battle. There were actually several powerful Spell Casters in this newly developed territory. Weren't the nobles of the newly developed territories all from the side branches that weren't valued?
The nobles of the side branches that weren't valued were able to recruit so many powerful spellcasters. Disregarding everything else, the wizard who cast the Wind Dragon Whirlwind on the battlefield was definitely close to or had already reached the legendary realm.
With such power, which one of the human kingdoms wasn't a noble? Why would they need to spend so much effort to come to such a remote place to start their own business? How much did it cost to hire a Legendary-level Spell Caster? That was an astronomical figure. In the human kingdoms, Legendary Magi were all famous masters of their own regions.
In the end, a suspected Legendary Spell Caster had suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and with a battlefield spell, the Orc army that had the upper hand almost collapsed. If the Shaman Wizards had not used Bloodthirsty Berserk, the Orc army would have collapsed long ago. However, the Orc army had reached its limit, and just as they had stabilized their position, the Centaurs suddenly appeared from behind.
Fighting on two fronts was a taboo in the first place, not to mention that the orc army had been ambushed by the cavalry. They did not even have a decent defensive line. Being attacked from the front and the back directly caused the orc army to collapse completely.
What Gotanron Fireblade did not know was that the one who cast the spell was not a legendary wizard, but Suhlen with the help of a magic tool. There wasn't a single Legendary-level Spell Caster in the northern provinces, but there were a few Legendary-level Warriors. After all, Wizards were precious.
Even though there were two Grand Wizard-level Spell Casters in Northern Battlefront City, it was still very difficult for them to cross that hurdle. Just by looking at their long experience bars, one could tell how difficult it was to level up.
The threshold of becoming a Legendary-level Spell Caster stopped more than 90% of the Spell Casters. The one in Northern Battlefront City who was most likely to become a Legendary-level Spell Caster was Hathaway. No matter if it was Karina or Grace, they were still lacking.
The Orc army began to collapse. Up until now, more than five thousand Orcs had died in the battle, including many gnolls, bugbears, and goblins. There were also countless injured.
Moreover, with the constant pursuit of the Centaurs and the soldiers of Northern Battlefront City, the number of casualties was increasing. Now, the only Orc army that had not collapsed was the Orc Chieftain led by the Orc Chieftain.
Suhlen looked at the only Orc army that had not collapsed, where the Orc Chieftain was. Suhlen did not plan to let the Orc Chieftain leave alive. It didn't matter if some ordinary Orcs escaped, but the Orc Chieftain and the Orc Shaman could not be let go.
Without the Orc Chieftain and the Shaman, even if there were many Orcs left, they could only struggle at death's door. However, if the Orc Chieftain and the Orc Shaman escaped, it would not take long for them to raise a new Orc Chieftain.
Suhlen did not want to give them another chance to rise again.
With a casual swing of his halberd, Suren beheaded an Orc Warrior who was still resisting. Scarlet blood spurted out, and with another swing of his halberd, he sent another Orc Warrior flying. Suren then led the Lord's Guard to charge towards the Orc Chief.
The orc chieftain's strength was not to be underestimated. Other than Suren himself, no one else was his match. The Centaurs intentionally avoided the orc chieftain's location. After all, their chieftain had already died in the night of the battle. If it wasn't for the Centaur chieftain holding back the orc chieftain and the other orc warriors, the Centaurs wouldn't have been able to escape with more than 3000 people.
"Barbarian Guards, charge with me!" Su Lun roared as he took the lead and charged towards the orc chieftain's position. The dozen barbarian warriors behind him roared as they followed closely behind.
With Su Lun as the arrowhead and the barbarian warriors as the flanks, they formed a simple arrow formation. They pierced through the chaotic orc formation and rushed straight ahead. All the orcs in front of Su Lun were either stabbed to death or sent flying. The two sides were closing in on each other at a very fast speed.
The Orc Chieftain Gotanron, who was gathering the Orc Army to retreat, naturally saw Suhlen approaching rapidly. However, he did not avoid him. Instead, he took the initiative to meet him. Initially, Gotanron had accepted his defeat and was ready to escape the battlefield. In a situation where the army was completely defeated, even a Legendary Warrior like him would not be of much help. However, Suhlen's initiative to attack gave him hope of victory once again.
As long as the Orc Chieftain was killed, there would still be hope for the Orcs to turn the tables. Gotanron, who had lost, naturally did not know that this was the result of Suhlen's special preparation. If Suhlen did not fight, Gotanron would definitely lead a group of Orcs to retreat. That was not what Suhlen wanted to see.
"Berserk!"
Seeing the Orc Chieftain and the Orc Warriors who took the initiative to meet him, the Barbarian Guards immediately went into a berserk state. Their eyes were instantly filled with blood, and the muscles on their arms expanded like balloons. The hideous green veins were exposed like earthworms. Their chests were like bellows as they exhaled rapidly. Blood rushed through their bodies, and a violent force spread throughout their bodies.
Bang!
The sound of metal clashing rang out, followed by the ear-piercing sound of sharp blades cutting through flesh and bones. The Orc Warriors beside the Orc Chieftain also did not participate in the battle. They were all full of energy, but in the face of the Barbarians in a berserk state, these Orc Warriors were still no match. As soon as they came into contact, a few of them were cut in half along with their weapons.
As soon as the Barbarian Warrior killed an Orc, the Orc behind him chopped at his body with a giant axe. Although the Orc's weapon was not good, the powerful force still left a deep mark on the Barbarian Warrior's armor. Fortunately, the armor that Suhlen had prepared for the Barbarian Warrior was of the best quality, so it was not cut open. Only a deep axe mark was left.
The powerful impact made the Barbarian Warrior frown, but he did not hesitate in his movements. With a twirl of his two-handed axe, a cold light flashed, and a hideous head flew out. Suhlen swept his halberd, and the powerful force directly sent the Orc Warrior who had rushed up flying. Then, he rushed towards the unusually tall Orc.
When Gotanron saw Suhlen rushing towards him, he was not afraid at all. He also rushed up with a roar. He swung the heavy two-handed axe with one hand as if it was weightless. At the same time, he swung a machete with the other hand, directly blocking all of Suhlen's dodging space. No matter which angle he dodged from, Suhlen had to choose between the giant axe and the machete.
Never underestimate any Legendary Profession, even the Warriors who were called boorish by other Legendary Professions. Any Warrior who grew from a low-level to a Legendary Profession would have experienced countless battles. The talents and various combat skills they had mastered were definitely terrifying.
Disregarding any spell-like abilities, just by relying on their own attributes, talents, and combat skills, any Legendary Warrior could be called a master.
"Earth Splitting Slash!"
Gotanron's heavy two-handed axe carried a biting cold blade as it viciously chopped towards Suhlen's head. The machete attacked from the other side at a tricky angle. The two different weapons in his hands cooperated very well.
Clang!
There was a loud sound of metal clashing. Suhlen's Purple Dragon Halberd blocked the two-handed axe directly. Then, he twisted his body and dodged the machete behind him.
In the next second, Suhlen moved his feet. The Purple Dragon Halberd in his hand directly bounced the two-handed axe away. The blade of the halberd drew a beautiful arc and pierced towards the opponent's chest.
The previous head-on collision let Suhlen know that the Orc Chief's strength was not as strong as his. The more ferocious the attack, the greater the rebound force. Suhlen used the rebound force to directly raise the Orc Chief's weapon and then stabbed towards the Orc Chief's chest. Gotanron barely managed to avoid the vital parts. A sharp pain came from his chest.
"Roll and dodge!"
Gotanron let out a crazy roar. The machete instantly swept over. Compared to the giant axe, the machete's speed was much faster. The sharp blade carried a chilling intent. Suhlen tilted his body and rolled to dodge, rolling out of the attack range of the machete.
