It was obvious that Fang La was the person with the most kills on his side in the battle on this day.
However, on the Twin Dragon Island’s side, the one who secured the most kills was not Ruan Xiaoqi who commanded an army of souls, Zhang Qing who had a lot of colorful stone bombs, or even Ji Ye who had broken into Fang La’s formation with the Iron Armored Warship warship and killed hundreds of people with its weight. Instead, it was the Thousand-Year Bloodsoul Vine Tree that had been contracted and subjected to the Twin Dragon Island settlement.
With its special ability to refill its energy with blood, it had killed more than five hundred soldiers in Fang La’s troops. In particular, the battle between the Mirage Dragon Warship and the golden ship on the sea earlier offered it a lot of Extraordinary blood.
At this moment, it was already showing its Extraordinary Rank-9 power.
For example, strands of root hair that were extremely tiny and emitted stunning redness had appeared among the vines that looked like vipers.
Everything in the way of the redness, be they thick trees or rocks as high as an adult, was simply cut into countless pieces, not to mention the surviving soldiers within their range.
In the blink of an eye, they formed a bloody cage that flew to the General of Flying Dragon, the only surviving leader among the rebels, at a high speed.
“Break…”
The General of Flying Dragon changed his expression and waved his silver-gray saber that had cracked after colliding with Ruan Xiaoer’s Tiger Shark Saber, attempting to cut apart the glowing strands of root hair.
Schwing!
Yet, his attack at the cost of widening the severe wound on his chest was blocked by a red shield that suddenly emerged from the bloody cage. His saber was knocked away and then broken into more than ten pieces.
The fatal bloody cage, however, was still pressing close!
“Roar!”
However, when he was about to die, the dragon-shaped belt around the waist of the General of Flying Dragon suddenly emanated a glow and created a jade-white dragon that hovered around him and blocked the bloody cage that was quickly shrinking.
Pa!
However, the item was apparently overly exhausted in previous battles.
The extraordinary power in the belt that could invoke dragons was so insufficient that the dragon-shaped glow only sustained for two seconds before it faded under the squeeze of the bloody vines and disappeared.
It was not hard to tell what would happen to the Extraordinary Rank-7 general of the south!
At this moment, the leaders of the south had all been destroyed.
After the General of Flying Dragon died, some of the two hundred surviving soldiers ran out in panic, only to be cleared by the shooters outside the jungle.
The rest of them were all tied up by vines and captured by the Twin Dragon Island.
The “soldier of the navy”, however, was the only person who stood there without being harassed by any vines or roots all over the jungle.
Furthermore, after the tree absorbed abundant blood and had several dozen more red leaves, one of the tiny vines seized the dragon-shaped belt, which glowed in the light of spoils on the dead General of Flying Dragon’s body pieces, and raised it to the young soldier fawningly.
“You’re smart enough to know this? Don’t do it again next time.”
Ji Ye, who was projecting movies in the forest of pine trees while he remotely controlled the young soldier of the south with the Soul Mask, shook his head.
He had only asked the tree to control those people and not kill anyone except the leading General of Flying Dragon.
However, when the tree was hurt by some of the struggling soldiers, the Bloodsoul Vine Tree simply used the bloody cage and cut apart several dozen soldiers of the south.
After all, it was the seed of the Thousand-Year Tree Demon, and it was murderous in nature. Even the Bloodsoul Essence-breeding Method couldn’t completely soothe it.
It must’ve absorbed too much power of blood and souls from the battle to contain its power.
However, his contracted creature was quite lucky. The dragon-shaped belt that was raised to his face by the vine turned out to be a piece of rarely-seen Perfect equipment.
[Flying Dragon Belt]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7]
[Rarity: Perfect]
[Description: This is a belt that can invoke an illusionary dragon. It can be used in both offense and defense. It’s the General of Flying Dragon’s favorite item.]
Ji Ye did remember a thing or two about the General of Flying Dragon.
When Liangshan attacked Fang La, both parties sent eight generals to duels. Liu Yun, as the leader of the eight generals, fought Guan Sheng, who was the top of the Five Tigers, for thirty rounds without losing.
It was safe to say that he was supposed to be as strong as Pang Wanchun and Bao Daoyi, yet he was only Extraordinary Rank-7 in the advancement test.
That obviously didn’t befit his combat ability, so the Land of Inheritance probably made up for that by giving him a Perfect treasure.
He had blocked the tree’s Extraordinary Rank-9 attack when he was merely Extraordinary Rank-7. The item was definitely useful.
More importantly, the belt was related to the dragon…
Speaking of which, the Dragon Scale that one of the Four Dragons of Zhejiang dropped was still in Ji Ye’s Void Ring. Its description mentioned that it would be possible to summon the dragon after four similar items were collected.
He might consider looking for the other three items for the Ruan brothers and find out whether or not the Flying Dragon Belt had special value.
But of course, that was only for the future, and for now…
“Caw!”
At the center of the battlefield, which had almost become empty, the Golden Condor leader, which was Ji Ye’s second contracted creature and had been named “Gold”, was landing with a dozen more Golden Condors next to Qin Ming, Zhang Qing, Zhao Yun, and other heroes who had won their fights.
“Hurry up! Let’s split up and reinforce them!”
Those heroes replaced the soldiers who previously rode the Golden Condors.
While the battle against Fang La was already over, those on the other three sides hadn’t been finished yet.
In particular, in order to ensure the victory against Fang La, the Twin Dragon Island had concentrated almost seventy percent of their forces on this battlefield.
It meant that there was only ten percent of their forces in each of the other three directions, which was not nearly enough to defeat Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and the Liao troops!
The Snake Monkey Island, in particular, had no places to defend at all, and it was in dire need of reinforcements.
So, the heroes had no time to treat their wounds or take a rest. They had to fight continuously.
“Remember what Elder Meng and Chief Zhou said. Don’t treat your wounds, and make them look as serious as possible!”
However, it was part of the plan that Elder Meng and Zhou Yu proposed about pretending to be weak.
They certainly had to reinforce their allies, but they had to pretend that the Twin Dragon Island suffered a heavy loss in the battle against Fang La although they managed to win it.
Only in such a way would the enemies in the other three directions be reassured to fight one another.
Therefore, the heroes of the Twin Dragon Island all tried to exaggerate their wounds.
Zhao Yun, whose “East King’s Armor” was still unstained thanks to the protection of the Power of Dragon Valiance, intentionally smeared the opponents’ blood on it before he finally took off to the sky on a Golden Condor’s Boon!
