——————————

When the White Robed Iron Cavalry charged into the enemy’s battle array, the enemy, who were already in chaos, suddenly showed a kind of change that left one speechless.

In front of the White Robed Iron Cavalry, mishaps kept happening to the enemy—either they were running around looking for a suitable weapon and couldn’t find one, or they ran in front of their own people and accidentally fell, blocking their comrades’ way.

In any case, not a single one of them could properly respond to the battle.

The White Robed Iron Cavalry had long since gotten used to this kind of situation.

Battlefield Luck let them advance smoothly in combat while making the enemy run into one accident after another.

With this one rise and one fall, the enemy’s Combat Power dropped rapidly and would then be easily defeated by the White Robed Iron Cavalry.

The situation before their eyes was the same. With this Charge from the White Robed Iron Cavalry, the influence range of Battlefield Luck directly expanded, and the enemy ranks descended into utter chaos.

They didn’t even notice that beneath the White Robed Iron Cavalry’s formation, there was also a large pack of much stronger Hellhounds following along.

The movement speed of these Hellhounds was the same as that of normal Cavalry at full gallop.

But they were different from the White Robed Iron Cavalry; they didn’t consider anything else at all—when they struck, it was to take lives.

When they pounced forward, they could bite off at least two heads in one go and also tear open the enemy’s defensive line.

The most important point was that their striking speed was extremely fast. After killing, they would quickly retreat back to their original positions. Normal people simply had no way to see clearly who had made the move.

With the cooperation of these two unit types, and with their own Levels being high enough, they slaughtered their way forward with ease and soon cut their way to the tallest flagpole.

But once they reached this point, the Charge of the White Robed Iron Cavalry encountered heavy interception.

Although the enemy Leader had already died in battle, their most core troops were still alive.

Of the more than eight thousand Level 10 and above troops, a third had gathered here, and their Levels were the highest batch in the entire army.

Even without a Hero commanding them, they actually took the initiative to come out and meet the attack.

In their first head-on Charge with the White Robed Iron Cavalry, more than three thousand of them actually managed to suppress the White Robed Iron Cavalry’s offensive.

At this moment, Gu Xi also noticed what was happening over here.

He once again tossed Flame Storm, Flame Domain, and Gale Skill into the enemy ranks.

After that, Gu Xi decisively signaled a retreat.

This was not the time to grind down his own troops in a hard fight. Luring the enemy over and breaking up their formation was what Gu Xi needed most right now.

Upon receiving Gu Xi’s order to retreat, the White Robed Iron Cavalry didn’t say a word. They directly changed direction and cut their way out from the other side of the enemy formation.

By the time those enemies reacted, the White Robed Iron Cavalry had already run out of their Attack range.

Those enemies above Level 10 wanted to pursue, but the chaos outside blocked their steps.

They did want to speed up, but just as they got moving, comrades who had been scrambling for weapons and equipment fell right in front of them.

They couldn’t just ignore their fallen comrades and step directly over them.

So once they were a step slow, every step after was slow.

By the time they chased their way out, the White Robed Iron Cavalry had already escaped back to Gu Xi’s side.

At this moment, Gu Xi still didn’t forget to drop a big move.

Death Incarnation was summoned once more.

This time, the Death Incarnation summoned were the Bone Dragon and the Titan.

The Death God, facing so many enemies, couldn’t really play any effective role.

Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon pounced forward against the direction the enemy was charging from. Flying in the air, he directly opened with his ultimate.

Death Dragon Breath sprayed out on the spot, sweeping horizontally across the ground.

Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon had only one target: the sector the White Robed Iron Cavalry had not just Charged into.

When Death Dragon Breath spewed out, no one could stand in front of Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon, which allowed him to easily swoop down to the enemy Battle Banner’s position.

Just then, the personal guards under Dietrich made their move.

These personal guards were the same as the other Soldiers—Human units that had undergone a bizarre transformation.

He was the kind of unit whose Level was on par with an Angel—a Foot Knight carrying a Two-Handed Heavy Sword and clad in thick, solid Plate Armor all over.

On his Plate Armor were many wounds, and from each wound flowed copious foul blood.

"Giant Dragon? Time for Dragon Slaying!"

With this shout, several more of the same kind of Foot Knight around the Battle Banner raised their Two-Handed Heavy Swords.

They lunged a step forward, leaped heavily upward, and landed on the body of Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon.

From their movements it could be seen that they were very familiar with a Giant Dragon’s traits; they knew where the Dragon’s Attack blind spots were and where its weak points lay.

And judging by how lightly they cleaved down with that sword, their Levels were all above Level 15, perhaps even Level 19–type existences.

Back then, when Gu Xi killed a Level 19 Yaksha King, he sacrificed quite a lot of subordinates. It had taken both Siege and control to finally bring him down.

Yet now, faced with so many Level 19 Foot Knights, Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon had almost no room to resist.

In just a few exchanges, half of Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon’s body had been hacked away.

However, Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon’s reaction was rather quick. When those Foot Knights jumped up, he had in fact already begun to dive down.

When he realized he couldn’t hold on, Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon simply and decisively chose Self-Destruction.

The violent explosion blasted several Foot Knights away on the spot.

And among the enemies below above Level 10, more than a dozen were blown to pieces in the blast.

When Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon Self-Destructed, Death Incarnation-Titan also, at the first possible moment, hurled Lightning Arrow at the enemy.

Those streaks of Lightning, combined with Death Incarnation-Titan’s Death Land effect, actually formed a Lightning net amid the enemy ranks.

All the bizarre enemies who had been chasing after the White Robed Iron Cavalry were charred Black by this Lightning.

Some of the bizarre enemies around Level 8 were even directly killed by the Lightning.

When the Lightning vanished, they saw Death Incarnation-Titan holding a Thousand Thunder Peach Wood Sword in one hand and a Lightning Spear in the other, with rotting flesh all over the ground.

At this moment, all the bizarre enemies before him were so unnerved by Death Incarnation-Titan’s gaze that their whole bodies crawled with goosebumps.

They had a feeling like they’d been marked as prey by someone.

Seeing these bizarre enemies slowly come to a halt, a trace of a disdainful smile flashed in Death Incarnation-Titan’s eyes.

He hefted the Thousand Thunder Peach Wood Sword, dragged the Lightning Spear along, and moved forward step by step.

His footsteps trampled on the rotten flesh, and every step brought forth a strange, shrill scream.

When he had rushed to within about thirty meters of the enemy, Death Incarnation-Titan leaped into the air. The Thousand Thunder Peach Wood Sword and Lightning Longsword crossed in midair, transforming into a streak of Purple Thunder that struck the densest cluster of enemies!

Boom!
