One hundred split ground... No, they should be called Chasing Light Rhino Cavalry, tightly following behind Lü Youchan.
The swamp, which had already submerged the Scarlet Tassel Spearmen's knees, could not stop the cavalry.
The rhino's thick hooves moved on the swamp as if on flat ground, like a steel torrent crashing into the Undead army's formation. The powerful impact brought by a single rider against a thousand was like an eraser on a drawing board; wherever they passed, the Undead dissolved into a blank space!
The sudden turn of events panicked Klara. Every second, her legion fell like swathes of wheat. Allowing this rhino cavalry to charge would cause incalculable damage to the Undead Legion.
Her gaze locked onto Lü Youchan, who was surrounded by black mist at the very front, and she almost shrieked, "She's a Hero! Kill her!!"
As her words fell!
The five closest Undead Knights simultaneously turned their mounts and charged towards Lü Youchan, swinging their greatswords from different attack angles.
Lü Youchan's red eyes overflowed with a faint mist. She reined in her mount, and the Chasing Light Rhino beneath her lifted its front hooves.
This perfectly caused the attacks of the three Undead Knights attacking from the side to miss.
Clang—
The Halberd swept through the air.
It was as if she had eyes in the back of her head. Without turning back, with a twist of her hand, the head of the Undead Knight who had ambushed her from behind was separated from its body.
The sharp crescent moon swept across, taking out another attacking Knight and more than a dozen unlucky skeletons.
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Suddenly!
A shower of sharp bone arrows rained down, with many arrows hitting the Chasing Light Rhino.
However, with the enhanced defense of a single rider against a thousand, these arrow rains, apart from making a sound and being shattered by their hardened skin, achieved nothing.
The attack failed.
The Bone Servant did not stop. He reached out and grabbed a passing skeleton at his feet, broke its spine, and then used death energy to transform it into an arrow.
Before he could even nock the arrow, a cold spear shadow had already arrived!
"You've shot enough, haven't you!"
A Huang, holding his spear, pierced through the Bone Servant, kicked it to the ground, and spat.
Beside him.
Were the other Scarlet Tassel Spearmen who had successfully escaped the swamp and charged into the Undead Legion.
Fortunately, the cavalry's support was timely.
Otherwise, under the swamp's restrictions, the destruction of the Spearmen Legion would have been only a matter of time.
Now!
It was their turn!
The Spearman warriors, led by Wang Tiezhu, transformed into a sharp dagger, plunging fiercely into the heart of the Undead Legion!
Each person only protected their vital points, allowing attacks to land on their bodies.
Don't ask!
If you ask, it's just reckless, trading injuries for lives!
Wounds only stayed on their bodies for less than three seconds before healing again!
For a moment.
It was impossible to distinguish between them and the enemy, to tell who truly was the Undead Legion that feared no death.
The Spearmen and Cavalry Legions joined forces.
In an instant, they reversed the battlefield situation, slaughtering the Undead Legion with overwhelming force.
"Hey! What's going on?"
Lü Youchan, having plunged into the enemy's heart, glanced with her crimson eyes at Xiang Yi, who was enveloped in a faint blue ethereal shadow. "If I had charged a bit later, your soldiers would all be going home to eat their own funeral meals! Is this all you've got after your strength was restricted? Don't delay me from going back to eat! I'm starving!"
"Hehe~" Xiang Yi puffed out her proud chest, scrutinizing the latter's flat chest, and smiled, "Hmm, you really should eat more to nourish yourself! Hurry and complete your second task...."
"Here...."
Saying that, Xiang Yi held the Overlord Spear diagonally and murmured, "Leave it to me."
Boom—
The ground cracked like a spiderweb as her words fell.
The ethereal shadow and Xiang Yi merged into one, streaking across the entire battlefield with an astonishing afterimage!
The lingering pale blue energy was like a dividing line, splitting the Undead Legion in two!
Unrivaled Overlord!
A single blow instantly killed nearly a thousand Undead!
"Damn it!!"
"All of you, go to hell!"
Lü Youchan looked down, and a powerful battle intent soared into the sky, making her wavy hair flutter wildly.
Being mercilessly teased and having no strength to get back at her.
The unfortunate Undead creatures around her became tools for her to vent her anger.
She led one hundred rhino cavalry and forcefully charged into the far rear of the Undead Legion!
Her second task!
To cut off the Undead army's retreat route!
The two commanders exerted their power one after another!
Victory was rapidly tilting towards Lin Yi's legion.
"Good, good, good!"
The changes on the battlefield caused Klara's composed expression to completely vanish. "There are actually two peak Tier 4 Heroes! No wonder they still possess such combat power after killing the World Boss!"
Seeing that the retreat route had been cut off and the shattered runic boulders had lost their effectiveness, she finally panicked.
Having lost her biggest trump card.
If she continued to let the situation develop.
Not to mention avenging Lin Yi, she herself would be trapped here!
"Damn it! The hatred of a thousand years will be avenged another day! Today, I'll just collect some interest!!"
A fierce glint flashed in Klara's eyes.
Even if it meant soul damage and the complete annihilation of the Undead army, she would still leave those two female Heroes on the battlefield!
"Death... is the cycle of life..."
Klara raised her pale arms, and as she chanted the spell, the death energy stored within her body was almost completely drained.
Her already shriveled skin visibly decayed at a rapid rate, leaving only a layer of skin wrapped around her skeleton!
"In the name of Klara White, I borrow the divine power of the great Death Overlord!"
"..... (Can't think of anything, you fill it in)"
"Revive! Rise!"
"Forgotten ones in slumber!"
Buzz—
The last trace of death energy was drawn out, forming a nearly materialized energy field around Klara. As the incantation ended, this energy instantly swept across an area of several kilometers.
The earth began to tremble!
The moist soil seemed to come alive, wriggling and rolling!
With a crack, a decaying beast-like forepaw emerged from the ground, as if Pandora's box had been opened.
More and more bones successively crawled out from underground!
A cluster of ghost fire ignited in their hollow eye sockets, and they all turned their gaze towards the battlefield of the two armies, moving their stiff skeletons and swarming forward!
Looking around.
Dense masses of various beast remains were summoned, numbering as many as twenty thousand!
The Undead, who were on the verge of collapse, immediately reversed their decline with the addition of this force, curbing the fierce offensive of the Spearmen and Cavalry!
In the far distance.
Beneath the tallest and thickest giant tree in the vicinity, over thirty spearmen formed a circle, diligently performing their duties.
High on a tree branch, a Lord's eyes glowed, and a phantom hawk condensed above his head.
He sent the blurred image observed by his Eagle Eye skill to the chat channel.
And added a message: "Brothers... this Undead Lord is too abnormal! He can reverse such a situation! That mysterious team is going to suffer..."
In the channel.
"Dude... can your image be a bit clearer? Why does it look like a mosaic? Get closer..."
Battlefield Reporter: "Do you want me to go to the battlefield and take a close-up of every unit's face? Damn it, it's good enough that you can even see anything! It's not your own life, you know!"
"So terrifying, those resurrected things must be ferocious beasts that died many years ago... maybe even monster remains. Is this an Undead Lord... there's no suspense in this battle now."
"What race is that mysterious legion? They shine as brightly as light bulbs during the day, and it seems they have special damage bonuses against the Undead. Didn't you see how that suspected cavalry unit, when charging the Undead formation, acted like bulldozers, incredibly fierce!"
"This number is already enough to cause a qualitative change! Let alone killing skeletons, even killing chickens would exhaust people to death. I guess it's hopeless..."
"It should be an alien Lord, just like the Undead Lord. For some unknown reason, they arrived in our area early."
"No! Look at the sky! Dragons! So many dragons!"
"Holy crap... there are experts too!"
"..."
...
"Lord, from the looks of it, we temporarily can't go back!"
Barrett smashed a skeleton that had just crawled out of the dirt with a club and said gravely, "The route we just took around probably has even more Undead. Attracting their attention could be very troublesome."
Li Xue's delicate brows furrowed. She stood on a high slope, gazing at the heated battlefield behind her, and couldn't help but sigh.
The photos circulating in the channel were quite blurry, making it impossible to discern the race of the units fighting the Undead.
But she saw it clearly.
Those exceptionally strong warriors and cavalry were clearly human soldiers!
It was impossible for human strongholds to appear in the Blue Star region, in other words.
Other than Lin Yi, no one else could possess this kind of power.
"Keep moving forward. We'll talk after the battle ends."
Seeing the dwindling numbers of the Spearman team being besieged by the Undead on the battlefield, Li Xue wanted to offer aid, but due to her limited strength, she was powerless.
If she couldn't find Lin Yi's territory, she could only pray that he would overcome the difficulties himself.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly.
Her peripheral vision swept across the private chat interface, and her heart skipped a beat!
Super Love Farming (Hunter): "Thanks, classmate. Keep the scroll for yourself. Stay away from the battlefield, don't get caught in it."
Lin Yi....
Replied to the message?
At the same time, a loud roar exploded in Li Xue's ears!
She snapped her head up.
Only to see!
A metal giant dragon, nearly ten meters long, swept across the sky, its dark gray armored plating gleaming in the sunlight.
Its thick limbs each clutched excited human Spearman warriors, flying at extreme speed towards the central battlefield!
And the figure on the dragon's back, also covered in armor, captivated all of Li Xue's attention!
"Wait...."
"Is that Lin Yi?"
Li Xue hadn't even reacted yet.
An elegant humanoid creature flapped its pure white wings, soaring through the air, with more white shadows following closely behind, rushing towards the battlefield with a whistling sound!
After observing closely, she was horrified to discover.
Those white shadows were all Light Dragons, a total of eighteen of them!
Although their size was slightly smaller than the metal giant dragon, they were still six or seven meters long.
Each Light Dragon also carried four Spearman warriors, flying to the rear of the battlefield and dropping them at low altitude.
The team of dozens, coordinating with the Spearman Legion, which had lost nearly half its members on the battlefield, caught the Undead off guard!
.....
"Light Dragons! How do you have Light Dragons!"
Klara, who had just regained the advantage, was horrified when she saw the Light Dragons rapidly flying in the sky!
Although they were ordinary light-attribute dragon species!
Such a large number of Light Dragons collectively breathing fire would be devastating to her legion!
However—
When Klara inadvertently looked at the golden-haired female with wings on her back in mid-air, she instantly felt her soul tremble, and her spirit nearly fled!
"An Angel!!"
"How is it an Angel!! Quick! Get out of here!!"
Klara, who had lost her strength from activating the divine faith spell, was completely terrified. An ominous premonition arose in her heart.
As if to confirm what she was thinking!
The next moment!
The beautiful golden-haired female raised her slender five fingers, and her red lips parted slightly.
"The Lord says...."
"Evil shall eventually be consumed by flames!"
"His wrath is not destruction, but another form of mercy...."
"In the name of my Lord Lin Yi…"
Pious chanting resounded across the battlefield.
The wings behind the golden-haired female began to burn one after another!
"Grant you all!"
"Ordeal by Fire!"
Clusters of pure white holy flames suddenly appeared on the battlefield!
Swathes of Undead rapidly melted like snow in summer.
Seeing an Undead Knight engulfed in flames right before her eyes, turning into a pile of pure white powder in just three seconds, Klara's heart miraculously accelerated, and she frantically controlled her throne to escape.
She mumbled incoherently to herself, "How can there be an Angel... an Angel.... Those crazy guys... didn't they all go looking for fragments of remains!!"
She looked up blankly, seeing the Light Dragon covered in armored plating in the sky suddenly open its mouth, and she was completely numb!
"Ah ah ah ah!! Damn you, Lin Yi! You deserve to die!!!!"
As her words fell!
A scorching dragon's breath swept through the Undead army without restraint!
Boom boom boom—
The other young dragons also frantically spewed dragon's breath!
Even though they haven't undergone their second slumber yet, with Ailina's spellcaster and air force affinity bonuses, their levels are still 23.
Relying on attribute counter-advantages.
Any Undead that came into contact with the white dragon's breath could not escape the fate of being melted!
Wave after wave of dragon's breath swept through.
Like diligent desktop cleaners, the Undead on the battlefield visibly decreased at a rapid rate.
【Your army killed a Bone Servant (LV20)!】
【Your army killed a Beast-type Skeleton (LV9)!】
【Your army killed a Skeleton Warrior (LV10)!】
【Your army killed an Undead Knight (LV30)!】
【Your army killed a Bone Servant (LV20)!】
【............】
A continuous stream of notifications flooded Lin Yi's battle log!
Energy surged from all directions, his strength rapidly increasing, almost causing his brain's dopamine secretion to go haywire.
【Lin Yi】
Race: Human
Level: 37
Main Profession: Lord
Sub Profession: Disabled
Spirit: 123
Skills: None
Evaluation: A slightly more powerful roadside thug, barely able to engage in a fierce battle with some succubi.
...
"Just a little more! Just a little more! My attributes can improve again!"
Lin Yi's face flushed with excitement beneath his armored plating.
After breaking through to Tier 4.
Even though the energy provided by low-level Undead was minuscule, it was still enough to fill him up!
It directly doubled his Spirit attribute, causing a qualitative change in his strength!
"Dabai! Spray for me again!!"
Lin Yi tugged on the reins, urging.
"Aww... I've run out of stored saliva. I need to eat to recover slowly." Dabai turned his head, his voice sounding wronged.
"Damn it!" Lin Yi pounded Dabai's not-so-smart head, complaining, "Then why don't you use missiles to clear the area? What about magic?"
He remembered very clearly that those two dragon language spells last night had extremely wide coverage.
They would be perfect for deleting Undead!
"Oh~"
Dabai hovered in place, beginning to chant in dragon language.
After the last syllable fell, he tilted his head back and roared.
"Tier 2 Dragon Language Magic!"
"Multiple... Purifying Holy Light Bombs!"
Thud—
A black line appeared on Lin Yi's forehead, and he punched down again, "Get lost, I don't need a translator......"
After the nineteen Light Dragons finished their dragon's breath, they all simultaneously cast dragon language magic.
Large amounts of light orbs and arrow rain covered the entire battlefield!
In less than half an hour.
Under the ground forces' encirclement, the main Undead army's formation had been broken.
Since their retreat route was again cut off by Lü Youchan, even though Klara had given the retreat order long ago, no Undead were left alive... well, standing to leave the basin!
Except for....
Lin Yi's gaze stretched, looking at Ms. Klara, who was gradually becoming a small dot.
"Dabai, let's go back!"
"It's time to discuss the contract details with our Witch Miss."
