Zhang Lisheng inherited the bloodline of the ancient Chinese god on Earth. He had read Chinese classics since he was young and was imprinted with its civilization, so he believed in the old saying of 'there must be something wrong when something goes wrong'. When he saw the heavy-armored infantries and artilleries that seemed to be incompatible with the mainland warriors who were fighting around them, an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
Then, the scene that appeared in the water curtain was just as the young man had expected. Teams of infantries in shining armors guarded the artilleries with their bare hands and continued to move forward, attracting a lot of attention on the battlefield. Very soon, the Wizard Li warriors, who had pierced through the mainland coalition army's charging formation in their counterattack, launched their attacks in unison.
Those who could break through the formation were, of course, the bravest and elite among the native warriors. Even though their number was not many, when they gathered together and roared while charging while bathed in blood, they naturally revealed a monstrous murderous aura.
The mainland knights who turned around to stop them only fought with them for a while before they scattered with blood and flesh splattering everywhere. Those Wizard Li warriors, on the other hand, urged their ferocious mounts that were covered in blood and roared as they accelerated towards the coalition army's artillery formation.
The distance of 100 meters was covered in just a blink of an eye. At the instant they engaged in battle, they raised their spears and pierced straight with the momentum of the impact, hitting the heavy-armored infantries who were guarding the artilleries who appeared to be unprepared.
Based on common sense, the next scene should be a well-made spear piercing through the chest and the miserable coalition infantries being lifted up high by the Wizard Li warriors before falling to their deaths on the slope.
However, to everyone's surprise, at the instant the spear came into contact with the infantries' armor, a conch-like cyclone suddenly emerged from the armor and wrapped the tip of the spear. With a sudden contraction, it tore the spear into metal fragments.
The weapons that they had unleashed with all their might were damaged. In the midst of losing their strength, a few native warriors directly fell off their mounts and were cut into two by the air blades formed by the heavy-armored infantries waving their hands to squeeze the air.
Most of the Wizard Li warriors, on the other hand, displayed their amazing combat skills at this critical moment of life and death. Even though they staggered a little, they managed to stabilize their bodies and drew out their sabers by leaning forward to slash at the enemy's head. Unfortunately, they were still cut into two halves by the air blades.
"What is this? A magical version of Transformer that mastered the mysterious air pressure weapon?" Zhang Lisheng blurted out with widened eyes as he watched the powerhouses among the believers being killed by the coalition artillery infantry without being able to fight back in the water curtain.
Before his words could leave his mouth, the heavy-armored infantries who had brought the cannons to a suitable distance in front of the formation who had killed them after killing the invaders slowly came to a halt. They moved the barrels to the sky and placed their hands on the barrels in groups of five.
At that instant when the formation on the infantry's guard and the formation engraved on the outside of the barrel combined, the cannon began to emit a green radiance, and the muzzle began to let out a shrill sizzling sound. Then, the massive amount of air above the muzzle began to rub against each other and spontaneously ignited a fiery red brilliance, forming a column of air that shot straight into the sky before being sucked into the barrel.
More than ten seconds later, the air column slowly disappeared. The heavy-armored infantries lowered the cannons and aimed them at the barbarian fortifications in the distance.
After that, their palms abruptly left the cannons. At once, a sharp cannon sound that seemed to be able to penetrate the eardrums resonated loudly. Invisible projectiles, which were compressed by a massive amount of air and looked like they were wrapped in magma due to the friction in the air, drew a long parabola and landed on the defensive city wall of the fallen land.
Two to three seconds later, when they were still 20 to 30 meters away from the ground, the projectiles with a diameter of more than one meter suddenly exploded in the air. The overflowing flame formed magic runes and burned a large area of the air.
Vacuum zones formed one after another above the Hellfire fortifications and merged into one, pulling the surrounding air to form a whirlpool that was strong enough to tear everything apart. After crushing the fallen city wall and the defensive barbarian army, it sucked the ruins of countless wreckage into the air, forming a storm of flesh, blood, and stones.
Under the Gaoden Hill, Zhang Lisheng subconsciously shifted the water curtain's perspective and looked at the sky of rubble and corpses that remained unchanged. Somewhat dumbfounded, he muttered for the second time, "Artillery infantry phalanx …" There was no longer any contempt in his tone.
After being stunned for a long time, the young man gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "This is simply a large-scale weather weapon. No, no, I should say, it's … Sh * t! No matter what kind of weapon this is, it shouldn't be called an artillery infantry phalanx, even though it's indeed composed of infantry and fire-breathing cannons …"
"Your Majesty, the Yassen infantry artillery formation is indeed unexpectedly powerful, but a mere troop of several tens of thousands of people can't change anything. The victory still belongs to you." Tuan, who was also dumbstruck by the combat power of the artillery infantry phalanx, snapped back to his senses and looked at the Wizard Li army in the water curtain who did not show any fear after the fortifications were destroyed. Instead, they no longer cared about defense and launched an all-out attack.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lisheng thought of his own grand ambition and subconsciously blurted out, "But I still have a great use for these 30 million elite warriors that I've selected through thousands of actual battles among the 340 million believers in Wizard Li.
It's just a single battle, and there are already so many casualties … "Suddenly, he recalled some secrets. Now was not the time to expose them, so he sighed and shut his mouth.
"Your Majesty, after winning this decisive battle, there's no longer any force in the Green Leaf Mainland that can stop your footsteps of spreading your faith. After conquering the most powerful mainland in the Gaia World, the entire world will inevitably fall into your pocket.
Why should you care about the lives of just a few million indigenous warriors? " No matter how wise the mainland chief priest was, it was impossible for him to know that the real enemy in the mind of the god he believed in was a powerful light civilization that had already occupied and colonized several dozens of worlds, so he replied respectfully.
"You're right, Tuan." Zhang Lisheng, who was depressed, no longer said anything after replying. With his head facing the water curtain, he calmed his heart and quietly watched the battle that continued to develop …
The mainland coalition forces, who were unable to support the stalemate, had already decided to defeat the barbarian army before the war. The only order that the Wizard Li's ground soldiers received was to fight to the end. For this reason, the two warring parties did not have the slightest intention of stopping from the early morning until noon. They were still charging at each other in a stalemate, without any reduction in their intensity.
Even though this naked death battle without any pursuit and planning only lasted for a few hours, the degree of brutality was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Both sides in the fierce battle had already used up all their trump cards, completely changing the terrain of the Gaoden Hill.
On the mainland coalition forces' side, the forbidden spells had already been released one after another. At least one-third of the infantry in the artillery infantry phalanx had been killed by the Wizard Li warriors. Due to the long continuous firing of the remaining artillery, the engraved formation had also been slightly damaged and must be repaired before it could be used again.
On the Wizard Li army's side, only less than 30% of the millions of soldiers survived. Under the attack of the powerful artillery array and the coalition's forbidden spells, only less than 100 of the several hundred biological warships could still fly in the air. Not only that, even though these warships were scarred and still refused to retreat, it was apparent that they were already an arrow at the end of its flight.
At this time, the battle situation had gradually become clear. Even though the mainland coalition forces had also suffered heavy losses, it was still much better than the dying struggle of the barbarians.
Soaring in the air under the escort of thousands of powerful griffin knights and spellcasters, Dignity King watched the final battle situation and commanded the giant golden-crowned eagle under him to descend back to the center of the coalition forces' position. He remained silent for a long time.
"Your Majesty, congratulations on winning this glorious victory that will go down in the annals of history and achieving the title of 'Holy King.'" As the head of the Yassen Royal Court's think tank, the white-bearded elder looked at Dignity King's lonely back and took a few steps forward. Looking up at his king, he congratulated loudly.
"Claremont, even though they're barbarians, they're the most tenacious and ferocious warriors I've ever seen on the battlefield." The Yassen King sniffed the rich bloody smell and a smile crept up the corner of his mouth. Reaching out, he drew across the battlefield on the high ground and said, "After defeating them, I'm afraid I won't be able to find such a strong opponent in the future.
I hope that the new god can give me an even bigger 'surprise' after I attack the fallen land. "
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed if you think so," Claremont said in a high-pitched voice. "The gods are powerful because of the belief of the mortals.
After encountering such a fiasco, it's already a fluke for a new god whose faith is shaken to only be able to keep his position. If he's smart, he'll definitely bring the remaining barbarian soldiers back to the Hellfire Archipelago. "
Upon hearing his words, the hundreds of prominent overlords and aristocrats of the mainland who had turned pale because of the tragic battle situation and the heavy loss of the army finally had some color on their faces. However, Dignity King, on the other hand, said in a low voice, "So, do you think that this is the most glorious moment in my life, Claremont?"
Looking at the Yassen King who was bathed in the bright sunlight as though he was made of gold, Claremont smiled wryly and lowered his voice tactfully. "Your Honorable Majesty, a great king like you who only appears once in a thousand years in the mortal world will, of course, hope to climb the seemingly unconquerable peaks one after another and defeat the powerful enemies one after another.
However, to an ordinary person like me, a peaceful life is the true meaning of life.
My King, please forgive me, but I'm afraid that the mainland can no longer withstand the 'surprise' that you want … "
"Alright, Claremont, I understand what you mean. Even if the Hellfire God is defeated, the Green Leaf Mainland can still be considered to have experienced a tragic catastrophe. I won't force the coalition forces to cross the sea to retaliate." Dignity King glanced down at his own think tank and said in a bored manner. He looked like a child who had finally gotten his favorite toy after a lot of effort but was bored of playing with it.
Upon hearing his promise, Claremont smiled in relief and opened the monocular in his hand. Standing on the hillside, he looked back and forth at the distance and said, "Your Majesty, the barbarian army has been completely divided. They can't even form a thousand-men battle formation anymore.
At most, they'll only need one more charge and you'll be able to blow the horn of victory. "
"Is that so? How's the western battlefield where that old fellow Otto is?" The Fran King asked casually.
Claremont took out a crystal mirror from his bosom and chanted while casting a spell to observe it for a while before replying with a smile, "The Fran army is not slacking at all. They're still fighting while bathed in blood. Looks like His Majesty Otto is not playing any tricks. The instant his words left his mouth, he suddenly felt that the solid soil under his feet had become soft …
