Chapter 46: Chapter 46, Fireblade – Kent 1
Translator: 549690339 | —
Those wolf riding cavalry who originally planned to charge quickly.
Seeing their welcoming party holding forward stabbing spears, they immediately pulled their reins, preventing their mounts, the wolves, from moving further.
If they were to charge, it was equivalent to speeding themselves up into a sharp blade.
There was no difference between that and giving up their lives.
But just as they stopped, another hail of arrows had fallen, injuring a large number of cavalry and mount wolves, causing them to scream in pain.
The failure of the cavalry in the front did not deter the Orc army behind from keeping up their assault.
The dark mass of Orc infantry, roaring angrily, continued to charge forward. When the Orc spear-casters were four hundred meters away, they stopped took out the short spears from their backs, and threw them into the skeleton troops.
After Fang Hao had finished arranging the setup of the skeleton spear-men, he deactivated the “God’s Presence” state.
He got up from Eira’s arms and looked at the movements of the orcs under the city again.
Before Eira could say anything, he slumped and fell again.
“God’s Presence Target, Skeleton Giant Bat, Compatibility 45%.”
30,000 skeleton giant bats, hidden by Fang Hao in the woods.
When 30,000 skeleton giant bats, like dark clouds, appeared in the sky above the battlefield, a large shadow quickly moved.
Then, they flew over the orc spear-casters.
With wings folded, the 30,000 giant bats dive-bombed like bullets into the ranks of Orc spear-casters, starting a battle.
The nearby Orc warriors rushed to aid, but the mobility of the skeleton giant bats was higher than that of the cavalry. After one wave of attack, they flew high, not staying long.
“This boy had arranged ambushes, watch out for these skeleton bats, speed up the attack.” Chief Kent commanded loudly, urging the attack pace.
The orcs charged even more crazily.
Fang Hao woke up again, ignoring the soft touch of Eira’s body.
He looked at the overall battle situation under the city again.
It was like playing a real-time strategy game on a computer, but instead, he needed to repeatedly activate God’s Presence, which wasn’t as convenient as a simple mouse click.
By then, the Orcs were already at the city gate, just three hundred meters from the wall.
“It’s time to close the net.” Fang Hao said, and fell again.
Eira held Fang Hao in her arms, watching the battle in the city nervously. The furious roars from the orcs in the city made her trembling involuntarily. Just yesterday, she was thanking her luck for being sold to a good master. She was fed well and given a comfortable room.
But today, they were attacked by Orcs.
She knew about the brutality and fighting style of the Orcs, and reckoned that this city would hardly be able to withstand their attack.
Just when Eira was feeling sad, and was feeling reluctant to let go of her new master, Fang Hao, the tide of the battle on the field suddenly changed. A large number of skeleton troops popped up again in the Orcs’ back, and on both sides.
The skeletons arranged in a neat and orderly manner, with the spearmen and soldiers interspersed in positions, they started to shrink the encirclement quickly in a pincer movement.
Skeleton Giant Bats in the sky kept harassing, with Orc soldiers constantly being grabbed and dragged into the sky.
They were ripped apart by a cluster of Skeleton Giant Bats.
The sight of countless undead troops caused chaos among the roaring orcs. Morale began to plummet.
The fierce and warlike Orc army began to suffer heavy casualties upon encountering the undead army who knew neither life nor death nor pain, their numbers quickly reducing.
Chieftain Kent stood on the Wolf War Chariot, his face an extremely grim sight to behold.
The number of enemy undead was dozens of times larger than the intelligence he had received.
This kind of battle that traded life for life could drain all his warriors.
He pulled the reins of the Wolf War Chariot tightly, and yelled: “Everyone rally tome!”
Kent wore an iron armor, wielding a long blade.
Each swipe brought out a flaming sword light, killing a large number of skeleton soldiers.
Fang Hao also noticed Kent at this time.
After all, looking down from the wall, whether it was the Wolf War Chariot or the void surrounding him was too noticeable.
“Flame Blade – Kent (Blue Tier 3 Hero)
So, he was Fireblade, and a Tier 3 hero at that.
In the orc market, Fang Hao had encountered his first orc hero.
It was the tauren chieftain, Bronze Bull Talok.
Unexpectedly, the chieftain of the Fireblade Tribe was also a hero.
Just of a slightly lower rank compared to Bronze Bull.
Nevertheless, he still demonstrated a combat power far beyond regular troops. Bang!!
Seated in his wolf chariot, Kent broke through a barricade made by a squad of skeletons.
Hordes of skeleton soldiers were knocked down and crushed by the chariot. Breaking through the skeleton blockade, he rushed straight to the city gates, lifted a battle-axe, and slashed with all his might.
A solid crimson blade glow marked the swing of his axe and the next second, it directly chopped down on the city gate.
Boom!
The whole city wall shook violently, leaving a massive crack on the gate.
Such a level of attack, the level 4 wooden gate wouldn’t hold up for long.
Watching the orcish hero prepare for another hit, Fang Hao’s expression immediately darkened.
We must delay his breaching of the city.
The skeleton army on the battlefield had already gained an advantage; wiping
out the orcish force was now a matter of time.
We had to prevent the orcish hero from breaking open the gates until there were enough skeletons to swarm and kill him.
Fang Hao hid on the city wall, peering through the cracks at the enemy.
Seeing that he hadn’t been spotted, he extended his left hand immediately.
A scorching fireball began to form.
It was the Flame Fireball, a skill brought by the Flame Ring.
“Burn to death.” He gave it a gentle push, and the fireball whizzed out towards the orcish hero.
Kent was gathering his strength.
Just as he prepared to strike again, a surge of heat descended from above.
Without any hesitation, driven by his dangerous intuition, he swung his blade upwards, casting a bloody red blade glow.
Boom!
The blade glow collided with the fireball, creating an explosive noise.
It was enough to make one’s head swell.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Meanwhile, the archers on the wall, under Fang Hao’s command, attacked Kent.
All two thousand archers focused on one single target.
The black tight-lying arrows were like a dark net cast down from above.
Kent swiftly waved his blade, knocking down the incoming arrows, but the wolves pulling his chariot weren’t as lucky.
Under such a dense attack of arrows, they instantly became porcupines.
Filled with arrows, they fell to the ground, lifeless.
And so, the distant, non-stop harassment continued.
It continued until the end of the battlefield skirmishes.
The skeleton soldiers, using their sheer numbers, filled in the gap in tiers, killing every orcish soldier.
Both injured and intact skeleton warriors were left, totalling 50,000.
Nearly 200,000 troops were reduced to just 50,000; truly a deadly battle.
The upcoming battle did not require any further direction from Fang Hao.
The only one left was Orc Chieftain Kent. Without the mobility of his wolf chariot, he was surrounded by the skeletons.
Even with his amazing combat power, even with his savage attacks and all.
After 30 minutes of being besieged, he let out a final roar of unwillingness before being completely submerged by the skeleton sea.
The intense war finally came to an end, with the undead victorious..
