The middle-aged Lord scowled.
They were there to explore the spire, but they hadn’t expected the situation to get out of control.
From what they knew so far, the higher the level of the spire, the stronger the monsters guarding it.
Based on the information they had received, the enemies guarding the spire were below Level 60. That was why they had led this expedition in the first place.
However, they soon realized that the ancient snake demons were much more powerful.
“What should we do now, Guild Leader?” The middle-aged Lord watched the troops fall.
“We’ll go and join forces with other Lords. Reinforcements will arrive soon!” said the white-haired elderly man.
After giving the command, Xu Yuan rode on the back of the Red-Eyed Black Dragon.
The ancient snake demons that rushed to attack felt the battleaxe shred them to death.
The Evil Dragon Wings charged ahead. After activating the Evil Dragon form, the defense of its dragon scales became stronger than the shield.
The ancient snake demons couldn’t break through their defense!
A blazing dark fire ignited the troops and burned the ancient snake demons when they approached closer to launch an attack.
If it weren’t for the abilities provided by the burning eyes, the ancient snake demons would have turned to charcoal.
However, the support from the burning crimson eye wasn’t enough. The ancient snake demons couldn’t withstand such a powerful attack forever.
They were shattered to death and left unable to regenerate.
After the enhancement, the Night Devil Bees swarmed upon the enemies. Moreover, they had the Life Steal ability. For every damage dealt, 35% of it would turn into their life force.
The almost impenetrable ancient snake demons suffered a great loss.
It was not easy to defeat the Night Devil Bees, especially when they turned their damage into life force! Xu Yuan’s eyes shone with pride. The Night Devil Bees were still his favorite among all troop types.
In the face of the brilliant attack from the Night Devil Bees and the Evil Dragon Wings, the Night Mages didn’t fall behind. They unleashed their destructive power.
They activated their forbidden spell that could do long-range damage. The damage done was as great as that done by the Night Devil Bees and the Evil Dragon Wings.
Their side was unstoppable. The ancient snake demons suffered devastating blows. The enemies were cleared out within less than ten minutes.
The place was filled with shattered limbs and blood.
As Xu Yuan killed all the remaining ancient snake demons, he instinctively looked up at the burning crimson eyes above the spire.
“Is this all you have?” said Xu Yuan. “Disappointing!”
His voice echoed across the dense forest around the spire. The flame soared once again in fury. The soldiers on the battlefield paused.
Xu Yuan didn’t order another attack. He watched the burning eyes.
However, no new enemies appeared. It seemed that the forces of the spire had come to an end.
“The Evil Dragon Wings will be the vanguard. Crush all obstacles ahead!”
The order was given, and the Evil Dragon Wings charged like a tide. They roared as they stormed through the winding path.
The ancient snake demons were still pouring in, but they were all slaughtered.
The other Lords saw the troops disappear across the winding path. They were astonished.
“Is this the true strength of the Lord? Su Wan isn’t even here! Her hero is leading her troops right now!” The white-haired old man was flustered.
Under the command of Xu Yuan, the troops were able to exterminate the ancient snake demons that had been greatly enhanced with powerful attributes. They even took the lead in launching a countercharge!
Moreover, Xu Yuan commanded the troops this entire time without even using his own power. The strength of Su Wan’s territory was truly shocking!
The old man looked at his fallen soldiers in bewilderment. His troops had turned to stone when facing just a bunch of ancient snake demons.
“Keep up! If Su Wan’s initial hero can win, we can also do it! If Su Wan’s hero loses, we’ll find a way to retreat.”
Although the area was vast, there was nowhere else to run. At least by keeping up, they could stay alive and maybe gain some benefits. He didn’t like leaving things to fate.
The old man turned around. Looking at the dazed soldiers on the battlefield, he wanted to say something but couldn’t utter a word.
The soldiers were low on morale. This army had once made him proud, but now they were nothing but eyesores.
The two reorganized the army and set off.
They traversed the battlefield, strewn with corpses, and followed the winding path.
Along the way, all they saw were the shattered remains of the ancient snake demons.
In stark contrast, they couldn’t see the corpses of Su Wan’s troops. They were stunned.
Xu Yuan paid no attention to the other Lords and their troops trailing behind him. He led his troops and broke through the obstacles of the ancient snake demons.
The ground was strewn with the corpses of the ancient snake demons that they left in their wake.
No one knew how many ancient snake demons were stationed in the spire. Xu Yuan only had a rough estimate. He had hunted down around three thousand demons already.
The Rotten Cavalry’s AoE ability could deal large-scale damage.
After a long while, Xu Yuan, riding on the back of the Red-Eyed Black Dragon, heard cheers from the front.
He ordered the army to quicken their pace. They passed two huge blood-colored rocks. The area then widened.
The towering crimson spire stood tall ahead. The space around the spire was barren and wide. The surrounding ground was neatly paved with large bricks.
The most remarkable thing was the red spatial rift in the square, which resembled a black hole.
The ancient snake demons were crawling out of that crimson rift. The small snakes on their heads squirmed and slithered.
It was no wonder their numbers didn’t seem to decrease no matter how many they killed. There had been reinforcements all along!
The Evil Dragon Wings entered the square and already cleared out the ancient snake demons in front of the spire and rushed towards the crimson spatial rifts.
With a swing of their battleaxes, more than ten crimson rifts were shattered in the blink of an eye.
The source of the ancient snake demons was severed.
The troops were moving too fast. They had already attacked without waiting for Xu Yuan’s orders.
Sometimes, having an overly strong army wasn’t necessarily a good thing..
