An ordinary army just could not match the fighting abilities of the wight army summoned by the wight sorcerers.
What terrified Master Yue even more was the position at which the wight army had appeared.
The bodies of the wights were not afraid of life or death. They were a peculiar race that had transcended life and death. As long as the summoning power supplied to them remained unbroken and undrained, they would continually clamber up from the ground. What was even more horrifying was that the wight army did not fear losses. Even if they were beaten into a disarray, they could still clamber up from the ground once more. Further, all the soldiers that they killed would be transformed into new wights once they breathed their last.
This cycle made the wight army grow continually. It was almost impossible to exterminate them.
Unless they could find the sorcerer using the Summoning of the Wights and interrupt him, it would be an endless disaster.
Streaks of sorcery, imbued with a thick aura of death, crashed into the army from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon. The soldiers at the front, who were pursuing the giant soldier gods, would never have dreamed that they would be ambushed from behind. They were completely unprepared and were soon in a bedraggled state from being blasted by sorcery. Earsplitting explosions rang out all around them.
Chaos spread like wildfire throughout the army from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon. The soldiers who had been ambushed, involuntarily turned their heads to try to see what was happening at the rear, and who had ambushed them.
But with one glance, all the soldiers from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon broke out in goosebumps.
Countless bodies were clambering up from the ground, wielding heavy swords and magic staffs. The bloody scene filled everyone’s eyes.
But what terrified the soldiers from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon even more was the status of these corpses. Not long ago, they were swordsmen and sorcerers who had stood with them in the Kingdom’s army of the Sacred Dragon. Suddenly, they were transformed into terrible devils that had crawled out from hell. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws, as if they were about to kill this group of bystanders.
The army from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, which previously had been in a position of absolute superiority, now had no choice but to face the danger of being attacked from all sides.
“Everyone hold steady! Sorcerers retreat towards the center of the army. Riders hold the line!” Hu Na’s face was livid. Veins stood out on the hand that gripped his heavy sword. It was as if everything had gone contrary to his expectations since the moment he had stepped into the Free Valley.
The Kingdom of Hua Xia had dispatched three thousand soldiers in total. However, the number that had actually participated in the battle could be counted on one hand. The three thousand devil-masked men had not even wielded their swords once, but had simply depended on the giant soldier gods. But this had already given Hu Na a headache.
Further, Ji Fengyan’s arrival forced Hu Na to send out his troop of Terminators. Even so, Hu Na had not expected that Ji Fengyan still had a trump card in her hand—the wight army.
When the riders from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon heard Hu Na’s shout, they braced themselves and wheeled their horses around to charge into the melee between the wights and the sorcerers. They tried to force a gap between the two forces.
Even so, many sorcerers were killed by the wights. The loss of every sorcerer meant that it added a puppet sorcerer to the wight army’s contingent. If they attacked in waves, even the heavily armored riders would have to flee.
Hu Na had no choice but to order the sorcerers of sorcery tutor level and above, to wildly attack the wight army with sorcery to prevent the wight army from advancing further.
