"Retreat!"
The warriors of the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion were frantically hunting down some of the demon clan powerhouses, about to be wiped out when suddenly someone shouted fiercely, and without hesitation, everyone rushed forward at full speed.
Their figures rushed thousands of miles, then suddenly vanished in a strange way, as if swallowed by space.
The warriors slipped into an illusion array, but the array refracted a spatial rift in the distance. Without rushing close, it was impossible to tell the difference from the false.
Rumble!
The void exploded as a war chariot roared toward him. Ye Lingfeng stood atop the chariot, looking down at the earth. Scattered across the land were the corpses of demon beasts, with some beasts fleeing in panic.
"Huh, that's strange. Where are they? Why didn't they even clean the battlefield? What exactly happened? The former tip-off exclaimed in disbelief.
"It feels a bit strange." A deputy commander looked around at the scene and felt something was odd, but couldn't quite put his finger on what was odd about it.
The warriors of the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion were notorious paupers. They cleaned the battlefield without even licking a dog, but this time they ran off without even cleaning the battlefield, which was truly puzzling.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the void exploded, runes swirling everywhere, startling them. Looking at the runes everywhere, Ye Lingfeng's expression turned cold:
"Mirror Rune."
Ye Lingfeng immediately recognized the rune, No wonder the surroundings felt strange—it turned out the scenes they saw were all mirror images.
The mirror runes shattered, roaring in fury. A squad of powerful Blood Ox clan warriors charged in. They were stunned at first at the sight of the war chariot, but upon realizing there was only a lone chariot nearby, they didn't hesitate and roared as they charged forward.
"What an idiot. Spent a lot of money setting up a mirror illusion array—was it just to bring me food?" Ye Lingfeng sneered. A whole squad of powerful Blood Ox clan warriors didn't even bother him with respect.
But his laughter hadn't stopped when, suddenly, there was a loud bang—there was even a mirror illusion array.
Seeing this group of demon beasts, Ye Lingfeng couldn't laugh anymore. It turned out to be a group of black four-legged lizards. As soon as these four-horned lizards appeared, they opened their huge mouths, spewed rolling black mist, and charged at them.
"Activate the chariot protection to block the poisonous fog." Ye Lingfeng shouted loudly, and everyone hid back inside the war chariot.
The most terrifying thing about this four-legged lizard is its poison. Once contaminated, even the armor will corrode. Although the armor doesn't decay, the runes on it can cripple many of the armor's abilities if corroded. This is a very annoying beast.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Suddenly, a strange cry came from afar. Someone exclaimed, "Arrowbone rat!"
It was giant rats, covered in bone spikes on their backs, which were as sharp as arrows.
"Boom boom boom... The
arrow bone rats had just appeared. The bone arrows whistled from behind them, crashing into the war chariots. The arrows shattered, but the chariots were shaken continuously by the immense force. The magical beasts pulling the carts were wiped out in an instant.
Ye Lingfeng was both shocked and furious. The other experts all shrank inside the chariot, not daring to go out. Runes lit up on the chariot, and swords of runes slashed out, killing the powerful Blood Bull clan warriors who had just pounced on him.
The poison of the four-legged lizard has a severe corrosive effect on human skin and armor, but for other magical beasts, it doesn't matter much.
"Boom boom boom...
The most terrifying thing was still those Arrowbone Rats. The bone arrows they fired were so terrifying that they were almost equivalent to arrow tower attacks.
Long Chen watched Ye Lingfeng and the others through a formation disk, clicking his tongue: "This Arrowbone Mouse is actually this terrifying." Shen
Chengfeng beside him said, "Of course, this arrowbone rat is a terrifying existence. We never dare let them get close."
When they appear on the battlefield, we abandon other enemies and prioritize them; they are the only ones who can wipe us out in an instant.
Fortunately, their attacks were terrifying, but their range was only a few hundred li. It was precisely because of this that they were able to lure them here.
Long Chen, I'm really admiring you more and more. Everything is meticulously planned, down to the smallest detail. At
this moment, Shen Chengfeng looked deeply impressed. Long Chen had planned everything; they only needed to arrange and attract monsters.
To precisely lure the demon beasts, Long Chen used the mirror illusion array along the route, unknowingly luring those beasts here.
"These are just some trivial tricks. Honestly, I don't like using these kinds of things—I feel it's embarrassing."
But sometimes, occasionally using it feels pretty satisfying, especially hiding here and watching the fish bite bit by bit. Hehe, it's quite a sense of accomplishment. Long Chen chuckled.
Long Chen hadn't played dirty tricks in a long time. If the old man found out about hiding behind someone's back, he'd definitely curse him to death. But deep down, Long Chen still felt a bit fond of it.
"Boom boom boom... Facing
attacks from three beasts, especially the Arrowbone Mouse's bone spikes, the chariot flipped several times in midair, and the people inside felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Bastard, this little attack really stumps me, Ye Lingfeng? You are too childish. Ye
Lingfeng roared angrily, slamming his large hand into the chariot's core, ready to unleash all its power.
But just then, the jade token at Ye Lingfeng's waist suddenly flickered, and his expression changed instantly:
"Not good, the position has been ambushed."
"Rumble rumble...
The war chariot rolled out, struggling as it fled under the siege of the beasts, looking utterly disheveled.
Those magical beasts, seeing Ye Lingfeng escape, chased him frantically. Their intelligence was limited, but they knew this was a lone chariot. Such an opportunity was rare and precious, so they gave their all to chase after him.
"Boom boom boom... The
chariot sped forward, shattering the surrounding space continuously. Squads of demon beasts appeared, and upon seeing the speeding chariot, they immediately launched a full-scale attack.
"Bastard, this place was tampered with too."
Ye Lingfeng was furious. Even on the way back, he had been tampered with. He had no idea where these demon beasts had come from.
More and more demon beasts appeared, making Ye Lingfeng anxious. If the position fell, retaking it would be difficult.
"Long Chen, you bastard, just wait. Once this is settled, don't even think about leaving the ancient battlefield alive." Ye Lingfeng gritted his teeth in anger.
From what he knew about Shen Chengfeng, Shen Chengfeng would never make such a scheme. On one hand, he didn't have the brain; on the other, he didn't have the courage. This must have been done by Long Chen.
The war chariot sped forward, with more and more demon beasts appearing. Ye Lingfeng was shocked to watch. Fortunately, the chariot was there. If he had come out alone with a group of people, he would have been more shockedWe're doomed.
Ye Lingfeng dared not linger for a moment. With so many demon beasts, once the chariot was forced to stop, it would become a desperate beast fight. The chariot's energy would be depleted, turning it into a pile of scrap metal, and they would lose their last support.
Perhaps he could escape with his formidable strength, but everyone else would die here.
The runes on the chariot were maxed out, countless rune swords slashing forward wildly. Large numbers of demon beasts were killed, forcing a bloody path to be carved out, leaving no time to pick up the corpses on the ground.
Ye Lingfeng seemed to have provoked a giant hornet's nest, relentlessly chasing him. Millions of demonic beasts roared forward, their momentum overwhelming.
"What a spectacular sight!"
Long Chen looked in the direction Ye Lingfeng had left, countless dust particles rising in the void like a furious dragon charging forward, and he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Beside Long Chen was Shen Chengfeng, who also let out a long sigh of relief. The years of pent-up resentment in his heart finally felt a bit relieved.
At this moment, the Tianlong warriors had already begun cleaning up the battlefield. One of them couldn't help but sigh, "
The Third Legion's Flying Dragon chariots are truly terrifying and incredibly powerful. If we had one like this, how could we not be able to reclaim our position?"
"If we had a Flying Dragon chariot, our position wouldn't have been lost. How could we take back that claim?"
"Alright, stop daydreaming. With such a treasure, even if we don't eat or drink, the points we've earned over three years might not even be enough to exchange for a Tianlong War Chariot.
Let's be more practical and clean up the battlefield. Heh, looks like not only will we make back our costs, we'll also have some surplus, and we'll vent our anger again. That would feel damn satisfying. These
Tianlong warriors had endured countless humiliations in daily life, but today, seeing Ye Lingfeng beaten and flee in disgrace, they were extremely excited.
You have to know, the demon beasts here are all extremely powerful. Their corpses can be exchanged for generous points, and at this level, it should be enough to make up for their investment.
"Long Chen, that's about enough. If we get closer to the Seventh Heavenly Dragon Army's base, there's a formation on guard. We'll be discovered."
Everyone cleaned up the battlefield along the way, and further forward they entered the surveillance range of the Seventh Heavenly Dragon Legion's formation. It should be noted that the Divine Clan had a rule: if a beast was not killed by oneself, it would be considered theft.
But when no one can see it, this regulation seems weak, and if it is monitored, it becomes a problem.
"Looking at the current income, we're not losing money either, and we can even make a little. Let's quit while we're ahead." Shen Chengfeng said.
"Quitting while you're ahead?" What is this supposed to be? I, Long Chen, stepped in, and with just this little thing, can I get rid of myself? Wow, you're really used to living poorly. Long Chen looked at Shen Chengfeng in astonishment.
"Could it be... Brother Long, you... Any tricks left? "Shen Chengfeng was startled.
"What you said is so fresh! It's just the beginning, and the real show is yet to come. How can we stop now? There are still quite a few things we bought that we haven't used. Long Chen said speechlessly.
"Huh?" So what do we do next? Shen Chengfeng exclaimed in surprise.
"Let's not rush for now. Just watch the excitement together. At this point, Ye Lingfeng should be returning to the base." Long Chen chuckled.
...
Ye Lingfeng did indeed return to the base, but when he did, he found that the base had not been attacked by any demon beasts; everything was fine. The soldiers stationed there were staring at him in shock.
Behind him, endless demon beasts were already charging madly. Ye Lingfeng's expression changed instantly; he knew he was probably being schemed against again.
"Defend with all your might! Set up the arrow towers, chariots, divine crossbows, and dragon cannons for me!" Ye Lingfeng roared angrily.
