Chapter 210: Might of the Heroes
Hum!
Not just Lu Junyi, Yang Zhi, who was also charging in the lead, laid down the black heavy bow and picked up the Black Mountain Saber!
The black air in Black Mountain Armor surfaced and condensed into a shadow more than five meters tall above his head. The invisible “Battle Aura” covered the dozens of Yuan’s Wolf Riders when it opened its eyes!
“Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!”
This time, it wasn’t just the Wolf Riders but their mounts were also affected and lost control during the charge.
Appalled, the Yuan warriors were all beheaded by the Black Mountain Saber that was more than two meters long.
Blood sprang from their necks multiple feet high!
“Separate! Separate right now!”
Faced with the Song riders that were “slashing” at them with Lu Junyi and Yang Zhi at the edge, the Wolf Riders of Yuan finally realized that there was no stopping them after dozens of casualties. They chose to disperse with their greater mobility.
They wanted the formation of camel cavalry behind to block the enemy!
“Block them! Block them! Don’t let them pass...”
Because the camels had a shocking capacity, each of them could accommodate several people and carry abundant weapons.
At this moment, the Yuan people had set up a dense formation of camels as well as a two-meter-tall wall of shields before the camels. Along with the spears and lances that the soldiers on the camels jabbed out of the gaps of the shields, they were the best defense against charging cavalrymen.
In particular, those shields were backed by camels that weighed more than two tons. Theoretically speaking, it was impossible for the cavalrymen to break through however strong they were.
“March on!”
However, that was only the general circumstance.
When the charging cavalrymen included abundant martial artists who could jump over the shields, the defense line would naturally be compromised, not to mention that...
“Get out of my way!”
Blocking the enemy’s arrows easily with his Soft Gold Armor and his staff, Lu Zhishen roared at the wall of shields and spears that blocked his way with his eyes as wide as bells.
Then, a condensed yellow light appeared on his arms. Vaguely, the image of a ghost flashed and melted into the Frost Metal Meditation Staff that was two meters long, enshrouding it in yellow light.
After that, Lu Zhishen simply smashed his staff at the wall of shields and spears!
Schwing!
The dark Frost Metal Meditation Staff hit the wall of shields, but the wall of shields merely shivered slightly without being destroyed.
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”
However, the camels behind the shields fell on the ground with broken front limbs.
The soldiers who had been supporting the shields with their bodies were knocked away while vomiting blood. Almost a hundred soldiers further behind were smashed down!
Lu Zhishen’s “talent” after he reached Extraordinary Rank-5 allowed him to hit targets behind an obstacle. He seemed to have hit the shields, but it was actually the soldiers behind who took the greater brunt.
Furthermore, the vibe of Extraordinary Rank-7 popped up on Lu Zhishen!
As the first hero to arrive at the Twin Dragon Mount fort, Lu Zhishen had been leveling up as fast as Ji Ye.
Besides, not only had he reached Extraordinary Rank-7, but the Mandrill Fists he had been using had leveled up to Extraordinary Rank-7 too.
That was because Lu Zhishen didn’t directly transform the Extraordinary Rank-7 Refined Stone of Civilization he got from the Ten-Species Competition quest like Lu Junyi and Yang Zhi did.
Instead, he used it to improve the first Extraordinary item that he acquired after his arrival!
The Mandrill Fists could significantly increase the power of their user. After the advancement, they could even enshroud weapons with the yellow glow.
Under Lu Zhishen’s previous strike, even Ji Ye would have to dodge as he would be unable to take it if he didn’t burn his Flood Dragon Blood!
Whoosh!
Wu Song, who was next to Lu Zhishen, didn’t directly destroy the shields, but he took advantage of the swiftness of “Jade Ring Steps, Lovers’ Feet” and leaped from the back of his horse during the high-speed charge.
Like a ferocious tiger, he jumped at a Yuan person who looked like an officer. While he was still airborne, he already swung out the golden saber in his left hand!
Boom!
When the saber was swung out, it caused a saber-shaped golden aura almost ten feet long in midair.
The strongest part about Wu Song was his first outbreak. There was a sharp aura in his True Qi, so this saber, which had melted Radiant Gold, was a perfect match for him.
Under Wu Song’s slash, the Yuan officer, along with the weapon he just raised and the camel below him, was cut into halves!
Wu Song, who was drenched with blood, was using two sabers. After killing this Yuan officer, he swung the black Tiger Soul Saber in his other hand too.
“Roar!”
A blue-and-black tiger, which seemed happy, sprinted out. Its wings that were as sharp as blades and mixed with roiling flames from hell covered a radius of twenty feet, consuming a dozen camels as well as the soldiers on them.
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”
In the next moment, the soldiers were all wailing and crying again.
As the third hero to arrive at the Twin Dragon Mount fort, Wu Song had been training hard and had almost reached the peak of Extraordinary Rank-6.
Same as Lu Zhishen, he used the Extraordinary Rank-6 Perfect Stone of Civilization he got from the Ten-Species Competition to improve his Tiger Soul Saber. Those who were killed by this saber would die physically and spiritually, like the victims of the Soul Slasher that Ji Ye acquired the previous night!
“Attack!”
After the Song cavalrymen and the Yuan’s fully engaged with each other, people were crying and shouting from Xiangyang City, whose gates were finally opened after such a long time of closure.
The troops that had been well-prepared charged out too and fought the Yuan soldiers while the cavalrymen led the way!
At the same time, a tremendous number of remote attacks were launched from the city walls.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The arrows were falling like a storm. Hurled from a high altitude, they caused huge damage when they fell upon the Yuan troops.
Bang, bang, bang...
More than ten Yuan officers were directly killed by sniper rifles that had already been aimed at them.
Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop...
Ji Ye even saw a certain someone, who was definitely a battle participant, setting up a machine gun on the city wall.
When the machine gun opened fire, a huge number of bullets were darted from the city wall and left bloody holes on the Yuan soldiers’ chests and heads!
Although the trajectories of the bullets were already deviated after they flew for a kilometer, and they weren’t really accurate, the machine gun was simply firing too fast and reaped many lives in the blink of an eye.
However, he wasn’t afraid that the bullets weren’t enough.
It must be noted that anything that was taken into the Battlefield of Providence came with a cost!
This battle participant, who was likely to be from a certain tech settlement, had great fun with the machine gun, but he would find that his loss outweighed his profit during the checkout.
In comparison, the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s choices of weapons were more appropriate.
“Aim, and fire!”
Ling Zhen, who was wearing Soft Golden Armor and a red general’s cloak, appeared on the city wall too.
He ordered the hundred cannons that he and Tang Long had perfected for days to be fired from the city walls of Xiangyang City.
Boom, boom, boom...
The cannonballs, which were made from the resources found in the Battlefield of Providence, exploded into hundreds and thousands of pieces. A single one of those cannonballs had collapsed a large area of Yuan soldiers.
