497 Crushing the Battle Formation
However, the Scorpion Army’s attacks and sacrifices weren’t completely useless. The front line of the Human Army could hold on to this kind of sacrificial charge for a while, but they couldn’t get out in one piece either.
In the end, there was a powerful Scorpion Warrior who used his fast speed and brutal strength to knock away three or four Human Sword-shield Warriors.
...This Scorpion Warrior was also injured by the backlash. His entire body shook violently, blood flowed down his face, and he was forced to retreat. But the opening he created still gave the other Scorpion Warriors a trace of hope. They swarmed over and charged.
“Boom!”
In the blink of an eye, a huge opening appeared in the shield wall, allowing the Scorpion Warriors to seize the opportunity to charge into the Human Army’s formation.
One might know that the slightest negligence might lead to great disaster. The shield wall was a whole entity. If one part was broken, the other parts would also instantly face the situation of collapse.
Zhao Yun immediately made a decision and gave the order.
“Sword-shield Warriors, retreat and spread out. Since they want to come in so much, let them in. Spearmen, come forward! Heaven Wave Formation, kill them all!”
The Sword-shield Warriors did not panic in the face of danger. Even when they were slashed by the sabers, their expressions did not change. They quickly changed their formation, pulled back their shields, and turned around, quickly running behind the Spearmen.
This wasn’t the end. They directly formed an arc-shaped formation at the back. From a high altitude, it looked like undulating waves. The gaps were very large and seemed to be full of flaws.
But the Spearmen did not hesitate at all and quickly thrust their spear forward, and countless spears seemed to form a forest.
This formation and movement seemed to have been trained for a long time. There was no need for any orders, and all the Spearmen naturally thrust their spears forward. A powerful and violent force followed the spears, and even the air buzzed.
Thousands of spears shot forward. The spear formation was like a forest, and the aura soared to the sky.
As the enemy, the Scorpion race was like seeing thunder and lightning falling from the sky when facing this spear formation. They couldn’t hide or avoid it.
There were spears everywhere in front of them. They could avoid one or two attacks, but they couldn’t avoid more. The wind caused by the spear was like a wall, and there was no room to dodge.
However, they couldn’t stop their charge. They could only watch as the sharp spears pierced through their bodies, and they were torn apart by the genuine Qi, dying on the spot.
In the face of countless attacks on the battlefield, there was no time for one to hesitate and think. A moment of distraction could be the difference between life and death.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”
On the battlefield, the sounds of spears and blades piercing into flesh could be heard.
However, the Scorpion race was truly vicious. Even if their bodies were pierced by the spears, the sabers in their hands did not hesitate to aim at the human soldiers in front of them.
The sharpness of the saber finally showed its true power. With one slash, it could cut a human soldier into a bloody mess.
But in the next moment, a strange light would emerge from the bodies of these human soldiers, and they would quickly recover from their injuries.
Apart from their armor being damaged, their injuries that had almost killed them instantly recovered.
This made the Scorpion Warriors widen their eyes in disbelief.
Shouldn’t they have cut the enemy in half with this strike? Why did they just break the armor? Why did the severely injured enemies then recover in front of them? Was this f*cking reasonable? Where was the justice?
However, this wasn’t the end. In the next instant, this Scorpion Warrior who launched an attack was instantly pushed back by an invisible force. Then, his body was instantly split into two halves, as if he had been dismembered by an invisible saber energy.
The power of the saber energy was tens or hundreds of times stronger than the sabers they had used. There was no way to block it.
As a result, everyone who was watching the battle could see a strange scene.
Many Scorpion Warriors had severely injured the Human warriors of the Kingdom of Dawn. However, on the contrary, they were the ones who died in the end.
Ever since Li Xiang was able to hide the aura of his halo skill, very few people knew that every time the army of the Kingdom of Dawn went to war, they would be buffed with at least seven types of support states. The lowest of these states was three times defense and three times recovery speed, while the high ones, such as reflect damage, explosion, splatter, and so on, were all 100 times stronger.
Under such circumstances, unless one could kill the human soldier instantly, the consequence of killing the human soldier would be that the greater the damage, the more damage would be reflected back by a hundred times. The probability of surviving was almost zero, so this secret could always be hidden, rarely seen through.
This was the current situation. The Scorpion race clearly had the upper hand in terms of combat strength, but under a fierce attack, they suffered more casualties.
However, on the battlefield, it was a battle of life and death. Except for those involved, only a few people could notice the strange change at that instant. The Scorpion Warriors who charged later only saw the Human warriors covered in blood, so they directly increased their attacks in excitement.
If they couldn’t cause any damage, they could still live a little longer. But once they caused damage, even if it was just a scratch, they would still be seriously injured.
Under such circumstances, as if a true God had possessed them, countless Human soldiers became more and more determined, and the battle intent in their eyes grew stronger.
Seeing that the Human warriors’ conditions had stabilized, Li Xiang changed the fifth Recovery Halo to the High-rank EXP Halo, which instantly increased the EXP gained by these warriors from normal to ten times.
As for self-recovery, they could only rely on the three times recovery rate of the Black Tortoise Battle Armor.
Although this would inevitably cause some casualties, with triple defense and counterattack protection, if they were still killed, it could only be said that it was their fate.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”
The spears pierced into the Scorpion Warriors’ bodies, killing them. The Scorpion Warriors slashed and were then killed by the counterattacks.
On the battlefield, blood splattered everywhere. Occasionally, Human warriors would fall, but they would immediately be replaced by the warriors behind.
The entire battlefield was like a merciless meat grinder. Blood splattered everywhere, and broken limbs flew in all directions, leaving behind only the cold glints of the merciless weapons.
On the whole, the Human warriors had the absolute advantage. It was as if they were massacring the Scorpion Warriors that were constantly charging at them.
The brutal fighting and killing on the battlefields shocked all the Human civilians and other warriors who saw this.
Many of these transcendent powerhouses were previously Itinerant cultivators who were more skilled in one-on-one combat. At most, they would only be in a chaotic battle with a hundred or so people. They had never seen what a real battle between armies looked like.
Now that they had seen it with their own eyes, the shock that it brought them was simply indescribable.
“Is this a real battle? It was too terrifying. What a terrifying military formation. As soon as this spear formation was unleashed, countless spears burst forth, instantly enveloping a radius of several miles. No matter how high one’s combat strength was, one would be helpless against this spear formation. No matter how good one’s escaping and dodging techniques were, one couldn’t dodge or avoid it, and one would die without a doubt. No wonder so many experts have to retreat when facing a military formation. They really can’t win!”
