Chapter 495 - 495 The Cheering Human Civilians
495 The Cheering Human Civilians
The Scorpion Army only had around 30000 soldiers left, which was much less than the Human Army.
The cave looked wide, but with so many soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Human civilians in it, it would be crowded and chaotic when they fought.
In a situation where they could not form a formation, their combat strength was almost equal.
However, Li Xiang was now on the Void Warship outside. With the halo skills and the Black Tortoise Battle Armor’s buffs, all the warriors of the Kingdom of Dawn had triple Defense and Recovery. In addition to the five halos of reflect damage, rupture, splatter, sacred flame, and recovery, it was extremely difficult for the Scorpion Warriors to kill a single warrior of the Kingdom of Dawn.
Most of the time, a stab to a soldier from the Kingdom of Dawn might not cause much damage, but a bloody hole would suddenly appear on one’s own body, which would be fatal.
Many Scorpion Warriors didn’t even know why they had been severely injured and dying.
“Alright, let’s have a fight then. Let’s see if your Human Warriors are more powerful or if my Scorpion Warriors are stronger!”
Alice’s figure stopped in the air, continuously killing the Scorpion Warriors that were rushing over. The Human Warriors behind her quickly rushed into the cave.
“Get into formation!”
Zhao Yun roared as the Human Army charged in. They quickly gathered together. Without any hesitation, they once again formed a formation and charged toward the Scorpion Army.
This time, they didn’t form the Arrow Formation but the Flying-geese Formation.
Compared to the outside world, the cave was still small and narrow. If they used the Arrow Formation, they would be surrounded by the enemy when rushing toward them.
He was still the arrowhead of the Flying-geese Formation, but the area of effect was larger, and he had more space to move.
Most importantly, they had powerful support buffs, so they were not afraid of charging.
The Sword-shield Warriors were at the front, the warriors with long spears were at the back, and the archers were at the back. With small steps, they squeezed toward the Scorpion Army.
The orderly formation and the killing aura of tens of thousands of Human Warriors combined together to form a raging killing aura. This aura was connected like a giant beast and pressed down like a mountain.
The power of this military formation instantly displayed its sharp and terrifying sense.
The blood-red eyes of the Scorpion race’s new chief also trembled slightly. He had very mixed feelings.
He had never expected that the Human Army, which he had looked down upon, would be able to form such a powerful formation. However, he wasn’t afraid. He immediately gave the order, and the Scorpion Army also got into formation and charged forward.
However, although the Scorpion race was also in formation, their auras weren’t connected. They were only in an ordinary and irregular formation.
After all, even if they had intelligence, they had just been transformed from ordinary scorpions to the Scorpion race not long ago. Although they had powerful combat instincts, they didn’t have any knowledge inheritance.
Their bloodlines weren’t that powerful or noble, so they could only rely on their courage to form a formation and counter the Human Army’s attack.
The Scorpion Warriors stepped forward one after another, the three-meter-long sabers in their hands shimmering with a cold black light. Although their formation wasn’t neat and they weren’t as well-trained as the Army of the Kingdom of Dawn, their sabers were as dense as a forest and still gave off a terrifying aura in the formation.
They were born to kill ruthlessly, cold-blooded and emotionless, which made them fearless in the killing. This was their instinct.
The two armies faced each other, less than a thousand meters apart. Two invisible auras instantly collided, and a somber atmosphere filled the entire cave.
One could not understand how horrible this invisible pressure was unless one was in the face of a true army in person.
The countless Human civilians hiding under the stone wall had already stood up and supported each other. They looked over from afar, their hearts filled with anticipation and prayers.
“They are going to fight. This is the battle between the Scorpion Army and the Human Army. The two armies are facing each other, and they are at sword’s point.”
“Where did this Human Army come from? I’ve never seen or heard of such an imposing manner, such a military appearance, and such a murderous aura. However, judging from the formation, it’s clear that our Human Army is superior! Moreover, the auras of our Human Army are linked to each other and like a single entity. Once we launch an attack, we’ll be able to affect the entire Army and burst out with a power that’s a thousand times stronger. The Scorpion race definitely won’t be able to win!”
“The Scorpion race is also very terrifying! A single one of them is already very terrifying, let alone so many of them gathered together. That terrifying large blade can kill a group of people with a single slash!”
There were also people with a unique vision or cultivation strength among the Human civilians.
It was just that after they were captured by the Scorpion race, they would have to face tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Scorpion soldiers. Even if they wanted to escape, they couldn’t.
At first, they were also waiting for death. At most, they would launch a sneak attack and perish together when the Scorpion soldiers arrived. In fact, they didn’t have the slightest hope. But now, seeing the Human Army arrive, they immediately regained their confidence and even had the mood to criticize.
The auras emitted by the two armies were simply too terrifying. They were like two terrifying beasts ready to fight to the death.
In the outside world, Li Xiang lowered his head to look at the situation in the cave. He found that the two armies were facing each other, and he had no intention of getting involved.
With Zhao Yun leading the Human Army, as well as halos and various support buffs, there was no way they would lose this battle. It was just a matter of whether they could win beautifully.
“Thump… Thump… Thump…”
Suddenly, a drumbeat came from somewhere. The Human Army under Zhao Yun’s command suddenly moved. Their bodies trembled as they took the first step forward.
“Rumble…”
The Scorpion Army and the Human Army started to move at the same time.
The Scorpion race was half-human and half-scorpion, and their eight legs moved extremely fast. The slender battle blade in their hands flickered with a sinister light in the dark cave, which was actually terrifying.
“Sword-shield Warriors, raise your shields! Charge!”
The Human Army did not stay where they were to defend. Instead, they marched forward.
Each of the huge shields was connected to the one beside it, forming an indestructible shield wall in front of them.
These Human warriors were all elites that had grown since the establishment of the Kingdom of Dawn. They had all stepped onto the path of transcendence and were all around level 150.
At this moment, even if the huge shield in their hands were very heavy, they could easily raise the shields and move forward without the slightest discomfort.
Behind them, the spearmen followed. They placed their spears on the gaps between the shields, and whenever an enemy appeared in front of them, they would quickly thrust their spears.
These spears were not ordinary spears made in the mortal world. They were all made of alloys with high hardness and flexibility. They were more resilient, and the tips were extremely sharp. The bodies of the spears were about 2.5 meters long. They did not look clumsy, but they were not too short either.
“Crossbowmen, hear my order! Purgatory Divine Crossbow, straight ahead. Fire 12 consecutive shots! A thousand people in a team, three teams in rotation. The archers are at the back. You are free to shoot!”
