Ten thousand versus one hundred thousand, total suppression! (6400)
"Skree—!"
A sharp, piercing shriek echoed across almost the entire ancient battlefield!
On the back of every griffin sat a Silver Hand Knight clad in white armor, wielding a long spear and a round shield.
Their gazes were resolute.
Leading them was none other than Fordragon, who had broken through to the rank of leader just last night!
The griffins flapped their wings continuously in the air, moving at extreme speeds, covering a distance of one or two kilometers in just a few seconds.
The Griffin Knight regiment, carrying the momentum of destruction, charged directly toward the undead flying unit.
Then, the knights thrust their long spears forward violently.
"In the name of Remedios, bring down judgment!!"
After being empowered by the Eternal Power, the attack range of the knights' long spears reached 13 meters!
Coupled with the bonus from holy water!
Every spear thrust was like the judgment of a god!
Piercing these undead creatures, causing them to scream incessantly.
"Puff! Puff, puff!"
[ -13764 ] [ -13863 ] [ -14126 ] [ -13352 ] [ -15826 ] …
Densely packed damage numbers appeared!
Every time they were struck by a spear, the ghost fire on the undead winged birds dimmed a little.
Moreover, under the skill of the knight leader, Fordragon, every one of his attacks increased the attack power of the other Silver Hand Knights, so each strike dealt more damage than the last.
"Roar!" "Skree!!!"
Those undead dragons and undead winged birds kept screaming as they were stabbed.
However, the undead flying unit quickly reacted and launched a fierce counterattack!
"Whoosh!"
Three or four undead dragons breathed dragon breath simultaneously, the ghastly green flames seemingly capable of igniting everything!
On the other side, a large number of undead winged birds unleashed a dense barrage of feather blades.
However, the knight regiment did not dodge or evade; they charged straight ahead, tanking the monsters' attacks!
The dragon breath spewed onto them, bringing up large damage numbers while also setting their bodies ablaze.
Yet, these knights seemed completely unfazed by the pain of burning, charging forcefully in front of these monsters to launch a fierce counterattack!
Recovery numbers appeared above their heads, rapidly restoring their health.
Relying on one hundred griffins and one hundred Silver Hand Knights, they directly held off this undead aerial unit numbering over two thousand.
And in less than a minute.
One undead dragon, burning with ghastly green flames, was focused down by the knights from the sky until it was in a heavily injured state.
It fell like a meteorite, then slammed heavily into the ground!
"Boom!"
Where the undead dragon landed, the ghastly green flames ignited the surrounding hundreds of meters of ground once again.
Seeing this, Cao Xing immediately shouted: "Duke Baradin! Over there!"
He had just taken a look at this undead dragon; it was a Tier 7 Leader-level creature!
There weren't many of them in the entire ancient battlefield.
Converting even one would be a huge profit!
Duke Baradin also knew the power of such creatures and immediately abandoned the ordinary undead he was handling.
He rushed to the side of the dragon at the first opportunity, took out the crown, and began to use the same method.
In an instant, a vast blue power of the undead enveloped the undead dragon.
However, even though the undead dragon's soul fire was in a weakened state, it didn't seem so easy to submit!
Under the restraint of Duke Baradin's undead power, it kept letting out angry roars.
"Roar! Roar!"
The sounds contained intense rage and an refusal to submit!
However, Duke Baradin's conversion was mandatory; it didn't matter if it was willing or not!
After nearly a minute, Duke Baradin finally dyed the undead dragon's green flames blue.
"Roar!"
With a final, unwilling roar, this undead dragon became an Ascalon undead!
Seeing this, Cao Xing was overjoyed.
"Good, good, good! Another Tier 7 Leader-level thug!"
"That's awesome!"
In the sky, the flock of undead winged birds became enraged after seeing their companion captured!
They attacked the Silver Hand Knights riding the griffins frantically!
However, no matter how fierce their attacks were, the injuries on these knights would rapidly recover in a short time!
They were more like monsters than these undead!
Furthermore, facing their frantic onslaught, these knights continued to counterattack in an orderly fashion.
"Swish! Splat!"
Spear thrust after spear thrust, they directly stabbed these undead, causing their health to plummet like flowing water.
The griffins beneath them also continuously used their sharp claws and long beaks to attack, making it impossible for the enemies to get close!
In the blink of an eye, several more undead winged birds fell from the sky because the undead power on their bodies had weakened.
Duke Baradin rushed over without hesitation to begin converting these undead.
Besides this aerial unit, the twenty thousand strong undead army that had charged out from the other side was being held back by one hundred Star Country swordsmen and one hundred Earth Mages.
By now, the total number of undead deployed on the ancient battlefield had exceeded eighty thousand!
A full four large-scale battlefields were engaged in intense combat.
Cao Xing did not go to command them one by one.
These warriors had plenty of combat experience, and with mutual cooperation, they were already capable of dealing with the enemy.
His gaze remained fixed on that abandoned undead city!
Because inside it, he could still sense more, stronger auras!
There were even quite a few auras that brought him a slight sense of crisis.
Among them, there were quite a few Tier 7 Leader and Commander-level existences!
However, these powerful undead seemed to be in a dormant state and did not emerge immediately.
Just at this moment.
From the distant abandoned city, waves of heavy hoofbeats could be heard.
"Neigh~!"
A series of undead warhorse neighs drifted over.
Then, Cao Xing saw a group of imposing undead knights charging out from the front!
They were clad in dull gray armor; due to the passage of time, this armor had decayed, emitting a ghastly green eerie light.
Their tattered cloaks snapped in the wind!
Beneath them were a group of undead warhorses.
They were mighty and numerous, numbering nearly two thousand!
The scene of that knight charge during the Battle of Lake Doron City was still vivid in his memory!
Ordinary legions, even if they far outnumbered these knights, could not stop them!
Moreover, Cao Xing no longer had any troops available to deploy.
The seventy to eighty thousand undead army below had already tied up all his legion combat forces.
Now, only some core members remained who hadn't appeared yet!
However, relying on these powerful core members under Cao Xing.
Dealing with two thousand knights of the same tier single-handedly was not a problem at all.
After all, even those elite-level Dragon Blood Warriors could take on a hundred enemies at once.
These core combat personnel were even stronger.
Taking on a thousand, or two thousand, was equally simple.
Liu Muxue instantly entered [Angel Form].
"Hum!"
Intense holy light emerged.
Pure white wings fluttered, as if a battle angel had descended!
"Ah Xing, leave this knight regiment to me!"
She volunteered, preparing to go alone to intercept this group of undead knights.
Cao Xing glanced at this holy angel.
Although Liu Muxue was a Survivor lord, her attributes were a cut below these native inhabitants.
But in her battle angel form, her attributes increased significantly, and she also had the passive skill [Darkness Bane].
She indeed had the strength to go head-to-head with this knight regiment.
Just as Cao Xing was about to let her go on the field.
The newly joined Giant Clan brawler, Jode Ironfrost, volunteered: "Lord, My Lady, leave this undead knight regiment to me to deal with!"
Jode Ironfrost clenched his water-vat-sized fists, looking at Cao Xing confidently.
It is worth mentioning that this big guy had also broken through to Tier 5 in the past few days, and was now a Level 47 Commander-level creature.
Relying on his terrifying brute strength and skills, he could indeed go head-to-head with a Tier 6 Commander without falling behind.
However, this was not a one-on-one fight.
It was a two-thousand-strong undead knight regiment, and their levels were all higher than this big guy's.
Cao Xing asked: "Are you sure you can handle it?"
"Of course there's no problem,"
Jode Ironfrost said confidently: "In the past few days, I've eaten so much of Lord's food and gained such powerful strength."
"Jode is not the kind of person who just freeloads; I must make sufficient contributions to the territory."
Cao Xing laughed after hearing this.
Then he nodded and said: "Alright, go ahead, but remember to be careful."
After receiving Cao Xing's permission, the corners of Jode Ironfrost's mouth curled up, revealing a set of white teeth.
At this moment, he seemed to carry an invincible confidence.
"Rest assured, Lord!"
"I've dealt with this kind of knight regiment plenty of times before!"
After saying this, he strode out with his huge legs, like a sprinting mountain, and rushed out!
"Boom! Boom!"
Every step he took brought about earth-shaking movements!
On the opposite side, the group of undead knights, seeing Jode Ironfrost charging alone, seemed to be infuriated as their warhorses increased their speed even further.
Both sides launched a charge simultaneously.
The ground trembled slightly.
And this Giant Clan member, relying on his own strength, actually erupted with an aura comparable to that of this two-thousand-strong undead knight regiment!
Causing many on the battlefield to look his way!
During his run, strange energies surged within Jode Ironfrost's body!
Then, the giant roared.
"Giant Clan Tyrant Body!"
"Ironfrost Phantoms!"
"Buff me!"
In an instant, a thick layer of iron frost covered his skin, making his whole person resemble a massive piece of steel!
Furthermore, two phantoms emitting powerful auras appeared behind him!
In an instant! An aura like that of a savage dragon rose from within his body!
[Your territory member: Jode Ironfrost used Giant Clan Tyrant Body, affected by talent bonus, it has become permanent]
[Your territory member: Jode Ironfrost used Ironfrost Phantoms, affected by talent bonus, it has become permanent]
(Note: In permanent form, it can be turned off and exited at any time.)
…
Two consecutive system prompts appeared.
This also meant that the two skills had directly become permanent.
Then, the giant, with infinite Tyrant Body + clones activated, charged out violently like a heavy-duty truck!
In an instant, he arrived beside the undead knight regiment!
Then, he raised his fist, as big as a water vat, and smashed it forward!
"Bang!!!"
This punch seemed to blast through the air!
The violent sonic boom made people's eardrums ache!
The dozens of undead knights in front were directly blown away by the terrifying gust of wind from this punch, with damage numbers of nearly twenty thousand appearing above their heads!
"Neigh!!!"
The undead warhorses let out screams, falling over on the spot and crashing to the ground!
Seeing this, the group of undead knights let out angry roars.
"Damn it! It's a Giant!"
"Kill this monster!"
When they steadied themselves and prepared to charge again.
To his surprise, the giant had already taken strides and was actively charging over.
Then, raising that fist as thick as a water vat, he struck out again!
"Bang! Boom!"
Punch after punch was thrown, occasionally mixed with some combat techniques.
Elbow strikes, iron mountain leans, and mid-air flying kicks!
It directly sent the Undead Knights on the field flying like toys, over and over again!
The onlookers could only watch as groups of undead warhorses were tossed into the air, and a large number of Undead Knights were flung out over a hundred meters; no one could stop it at all!
This big guy was rampaging through the ranks of the knights!
In the blink of an eye, he disrupted their formation.
However, these Undead Knights were also rich in combat experience and knew how to use their numerical advantage to deal with such a powerful single-target enemy.
"Reorganize the formation! Prepare to form a perimeter and strangle this monster!"
As the order fell, all the knights quickly distanced themselves from Jode Ironfrost.
And in a short time, they quickly formed a perimeter, starting to rotate and move at high speed.
While moving, they continuously thrust their weapons out, attempting to strangle the giant.
Yet Jode Ironfrost was completely fearless.
He directly weathered the attacks of these undead and charged right in front of them.
A fist as big as a water vat struck again!
"Boom!"
Another large group of Undead Knights was sent flying.
Jode Ironfrost threw punch after punch.
Seeing that the perimeter was about to be smashed through, the group of Undead Knights seemed a bit panicked.
"Stop him!"
Dozens of warhorses charged toward Jode Ironfrost regardless of their own safety.
The giant still neither dodged nor avoided them.
Just kidding; under the Dominator state, his skills would not be interrupted!
Plus, the recovery figure of over ten thousand per second that Cao Xing had bestowed upon him meant he didn't have to worry about his safety at all.
Thus, he directly withstood the charge of those undead warhorses, continuously throwing punch after punch.
One undead warhorse after another was struck directly by those huge fists, and the undead ghost fire on their bodies grew dimmer and dimmer.
This was truly the power to break through ten thousand techniques with one force!
In the blink of an eye, he completely destroyed the formation of this two-thousand-man knight regiment!
Seeing this scene, a look of admiration appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.
"This guy Jode is certainly formidable in combat."
As a member of the naturally warlike Giant Clan, he was displaying terrifying combat power at this moment.
And just then, more strange and peculiar undead unit types appeared from that City of the Undead.
"The curse of the old days shall shroud you all!"
A mass of shadowy aura suddenly appeared above the heads of the Star Country swordsmen.
Cao Xing looked over and discovered it was a group of Undead Warlocks wearing tattered robes and holding bone staves.
Their figures were hunched, their tattered robes fluttered slightly in the wind, and cold, eerie auras radiated from their hollow pupils.
There were as many as two thousand of them!
At this moment, they launched curse magic against the Star Country swordsmen, which indeed caused them quite a bit of trouble.
Seeing this, Cao Xing quickly said.
"Francesca, this Warlock legion is yours."
Hearing the order, a beautiful figure flew out from behind him.
And in an instant, she rushed into the high sky, flying toward the direction of those Undead Warlocks.
The Undead Warlocks below watched Francesca, who was rushing over at high speed while carrying endless spiritual energy, and simultaneously raised their bone staves.
Balls of black energy were crazily hurled at her.
Yet, even in mid-air, this woman had extremely agile reactions.
With a flash of her figure, she dodged this wave of attacks and arrived above the heads of the group of warlocks.
She pressed her hands slightly downward!
Invisible spiritual energy exploded in the crowd like cannonballs.
"Bang! Boom!"
Instantly, they were thrown into chaos!
This group of Undead Warlocks was sent flying directly like pieces of tattered cloth!
No matter how they tried to counterattack, it was easily neutralized by this witch.
Cao Xing glanced at it and then stopped paying attention.
With Francesca's strength, dealing with this group of Undead Warlocks was more than enough.
Meanwhile, another army rushed out from that City of Ruins.
This was a group of Undead legions wielding giant axes, numbering around three thousand!
They were tall, nearly two meters in height, and the broken giant axes in their hands emitted a chilling cold light, with the blades covered in mottled rust and dried blood.
This group of Undead Axemen moved with heavy steps, their eyes hollow and cold, as if they could destroy everything!
Braum volunteered: "Lord, leave this Undead legion to me."
Cao Xing nodded, "Alright, go!"
The moment the words fell, a smile appeared on Braum's lips.
He took a deep breath.
"Hoo—"
The muscles in his legs instantly bulged several times over!
Then, with a jump from where he stood, he soared a hundred meters into the air!
Two huge spiderweb cracks appeared on the ground where he had previously stood.
"Boom!"
Like a cannonball, this big guy held his shield and smashed forcefully into the middle of the group of axemen.
Then he began a frontal engagement.
Following that, many more Undead legions appeared.
Such as the Undead Heavy Armored Guard legion, the Undead Archer legion, the Undead Stalker legion…
Every time a new type of undead unit appeared, a powerhouse from Cao Xing's side would rush out.
Victoria, Hilda, Isabelle, and others all appeared one after another!
Including the Frost Moose, Volibear, and even Tong Chuchu, who was piloting the Earth Dragon Mecha, all had the combat power to hold their own.
At this moment, over ten minutes had passed since they entered the dungeon.
Battles had broken out in all directions.
Cao Xing's legions were fighting against nearly eighty thousand undead.
And that group of core combat personnel had also held back nearly twenty thousand undead!
In other words, the number of undead in this ancient battlefield had already completely exceeded one hundred thousand!
On the field, at least several thousand undead had already been slain by Cao Xing's subordinates.
And on Duke Baradin's side, nearly two thousand undead had already been converted.
But so far, except for the fact that the Undead legion under Duke Baradin had suffered quite a few casualties, Cao Xing's side had not yet suffered any casualties.
By killing these undead, Cao Xing's side had gained a massive amount of experience.
His level was already advancing toward level 58.
Even Sarah's level was only one level higher than Cao Xing's, at level 59.
And as they fought.
There were not many undead unit types continuing to emerge from that City of Ruins.
No matter how powerful a City of the Undead was, its numbers were limited.
Over one hundred thousand Tier 6 undead were already a quite terrifying force.
However, although there was no longer a large army of undead inside, there were still some powerful auras, which seemed to be powerhouses slumbering in this City of Ruins.
As they fought, these powerhouses were waking up one by one.
Cao Xing saw.
A knight with terrifying strength, possessing at least Tier 7 Commander-level combat power, holding a greatsword and riding an Undead Giant Wolf!
The aura on his body was extremely fierce!
The Undead Giant Wolf beneath him carried him, swiftly rushing to the side of the Ascalon undead, and swept its greatsword across!
Groups of Ascalon undead were knocked into the air by him.
Seeing this, Assam raised the lady of the lake sword and volunteered: "Lord, leave this knight to me!"
Cao Xing nodded slightly, "Go."
Upon receiving the order, Winter beneath Assam instantly turned into a white shadow, charging toward that Undead Knight at an extremely fast speed!
And the opponent also felt Assam's threat.
Abandoning the opponent before him, he kicked the Undead Giant Wolf beneath him and charged toward Assam!
Seeing this, fighting spirit surged in Assam's eyes.
"Bring it on!"
The distance between the two sides was rapidly closing.
When the distance was less than ten meters, they both struck with their swords at the same time.
"Clang! Clang-clang!"
The two knights clashed in an instant, their weapons colliding with each other!
[ – 78622 ]
[ – 74716 ]
[ – 135762! ]
The three layers of Holy Shield on Assam's body shattered, and terrifying damage numbers also appeared above the opposing knight's head.
The two sides separated upon contact, both sensing how troublesome the other was.
That Undead Knight turned around, emitting a mechanical voice from its mouth.
"Intruder, die!"
Assam was completely fearless.
"Kill!"
As the word fell, he controlled the Frost Wolf beneath him again and rushed out violently!
The two powerful knights began a frontal engagement!
"Clang! Clang-clang!"
Both sides were Master-level creatures, and their HP was terrifying.
It was hard to determine a winner in a short time.
And just then, another intense tremor occurred in the ruins of the ancient battlefield!
"Rumble…"
It was as if some prehistoric giant beast was waking up from the ruins, accompanied by bursts of heavy footsteps.
Cao Xing saw a huge Undead Giant Elephant rushing out from the ruins!
Its size exceeded ten meters, even larger than Dabai!
Every step this Undead Giant Elephant took caused the earth to tremble violently, as if a small earthquake had occurred.
In its hollow eye sockets, a ghastly green ghost fire burned, and it radiated an endless aura of death.
Even from several kilometers away, one could feel its oppressive presence!
Cao Xing glanced at it.
He discovered that the level of this Undead Giant Elephant had also reached level 70, which was a Tier 7 Boss-level creature.
Thus, he jumped directly off the back of the Mammoth.
Then he patted its thigh and said.
"Dabai, this monster is yours!"
"Moo—"
Dabai swung its trunk and then rushed out violently.
Although the opponent's size was much larger than its own, Dabai had no fear whatsoever!
Both giant elephants charged at the same time, bringing with them a movement that shook the earth and mountains.
Moreover, both were moving at extremely high speeds, and in an instant, they engaged in a frontal collision!
"Boom!!!"
Dabai and the Undead Giant Elephant locked heads against each other, neither willing to retreat a single step.
Deep pits were trampled into the ground beneath their feet.
"Moo!"
Dabai swung its trunk and thrust forward directly with its sharp tusks.
The two behemoths began the most primal slaughter!
And with the appearance of this Undead Giant Elephant, it was as if some kind of chain reaction had been triggered.
One creature after another with Tier 6 or 7 Boss levels appeared one after another.
Cao Xing also sent out Andrew, the Black Smoke Shaman Blot, the Dragon Shaman Weinmne, and others, all of them!
Including Isabelle, Victoria, and others, they all found their respective opponents one by one.
Every time a powerhouse rushed out from the City of the Undead, a corresponding powerhouse from Cao Xing's side would go over to intercept them.
This was his foundation.
During the Battle of the Oracle, his territory's strength had already undergone a sublimation-like transformation!
Even though there were many powerhouses slumbering in this ancient battlefield, and their strength was terrifying, Cao Xing also had enough powerhouses under his command!
And just then.
Another Undead Swordsman, possessing Tier 7 Commander-level—that is, Tier 7 Boss-level—strength, leaped violently into the air.
Beside Cao Xing, only Liu Muxue and Sarah remained.
If a few more powerhouses were to emerge, they would have to enter the fray themselves.
