The ferocious beasts roared, shaking the heavens and earth.
The fragile skeletons simply couldn't withstand the impact of any ferocious beast.
Even the lowest-level cubs possessed over a hundred tons of strength.
Magic Bears, Giant Apes, Ogres, Earth Dragons... wherever they went, they destroyed everything in their path, slaughtering at will!
Kurumi sat atop the Mammoth as if she had entered an amusement park, shouting with excitement.
A third of the undead army had been blasted away by the Sorcerer Legion earlier, and now, under the devastation of the Magic Beast Legion, their numbers began to dwindle rapidly at a pace visible to the naked eye.
Yamsa's face was filled with panic. "Where are the mages? Hurry up and take care of these monsters for me!"
"But Lord, what about our undead army? They'll be caught in the crossfire, won't they?" a messenger nearby asked.
"Idiot!" Yamsa barked. "What use is this skeleton cannon fodder now?"
And so, over a thousand mages began to chant magic incantations.
In an instant, brilliant fireballs fell from the sky, smashing toward the giant beasts.
Kurumi set aside her playful mood, her gaze turning sharp.
"Awoo~~~"
With a fox's howl, the five fluffy tails behind Kurumi all bloomed with a dazzling golden light.
"Earth Spirit Demon Fire: Reverse!"
In an instant, the entire space became incredibly hot, and a scorching airwave swept through the surroundings.
The golden fox tails ignited with golden flames, expanding against the wind to sweep through the void, blocking all the flames falling toward the giant beasts and reflecting them back.
Caught off guard, the mages were immediately hit by the backlash of their own fireballs, coughing up blood as they were sent flying one after another.
"Damned beast!"
Yamsa shouted in anger, "Forget about those things! Where are the archers? Where are the ranged troops? Attack that fox for me!"
However, in the next moment, the sky darkened at some point.
Yamsa looked up and saw a dense mass of Pegasi obscuring the sky, coming down in a deluge.
They covered the continent in a dark mass, blotting out the sun and making it almost impossible to breathe.
Yamsa's pupils shrank violently. "This is..."
"Swish!!"
An arrow, carrying a sharp piercing sound, transfixed Yamsa's right shoulder.
Yamsa let out a pained groan.
This was only a minor wound to him; he pulled out the arrow and drank a Recovery Potion to return to normal.
However, there wasn't just this one arrow.
"Swish swish swish!"
A deluge of arrows fell from the sky, targeting only the mages and archers who possessed long-range magical abilities.
Yamsa's ranks instantly collapsed as soldiers fled in disarray; the mages and archers resisted desperately, yet they were still no match for the volley of ten thousand arrows.
"Aaahhh!!!"
Screams rose one after another.
Yamsa's eyes were nearly bursting, his vision turning red.
"Quick, attack the sky indiscriminately! Shoot them down for me!"
The twenty thousand-strong Pegasus Knight Legion came and went quickly, vanishing without a trace in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, leaving behind a ground covered in corpses and debris.
"Ah!!"
Yamsa roared at the sky, his eyes bloodshot.
His army was left with less than ten thousand undead soldiers and twenty thousand Demi-human Elite Troops.
"I will never rest until you're dead!"
Yamsa gnashed his teeth and smashed a rock by his feet with a punch.
At that moment, Cocytus made a grand gesture, and Kurumi withdrew with the Magic Beast Legion.
"Orc Legion as the vanguard, Infantry Legion follow closely behind."
"Charge!!"
"Ura!!!" xN
Amidst a chorus of shouts, the Orc Legion turned into a torrent and surged toward Yamsa's remnants like a collapsing mountain, unstoppable.
The army of one hundred and fifty thousand was like a hot knife through butter, and Yamsa's army retreated steadily.
"Block them for me!"
A look of madness flashed in Yamsa's eyes as he took out an ancient bell and shook it twice.
Immediately, a bizarre power spread across the battlefield.
All the soldiers suddenly found themselves being pulled by some mysterious force, involuntarily charging forward and plunging into the midst of the Orcs.
Forced by circumstance, they could only fight for their lives.
This was an item Clayman used to control his subordinates, even if it meant using coercive means... "Pfft!"
"Ah..."
Shrill screams rang out one after another, and blood splattered, staining the ground red.
"Damn it! Why is the opponent so powerful?!"
Yamsa looked at everything before him, a look of despair surfacing on his face.
The Orc Legion was already close at hand, and he could even smell the thick, pungent scent of blood.
"Two Lords, please take action!"
"If you don't act now, it will be too late for everything!"
Yamsa could only pin his hopes on Carrion and Milim; otherwise, he was doomed.
Carrion and Milim exchanged a glance and then nodded helplessly.
The two flew directly toward where Cocytus was located.
Slaughtering small fry was meaningless; to catch the bandits, one must first catch their leader—this was the only chance of victory.
Draco and the Guardians, seeing this, silently moved behind Cocytus.
"Forgive me!"
Carrion gave a great shout, the Magical Essence within his body beginning to boil as a pair of black tiger wings sprouted from his back.
Golden energy permeated his body, and his hair began to grow long, just like a Saiyan.
This was Carrion's unique skill, 'Beastification'.
He pulled out a White Dragon Crescent Blade and took flight, swinging the blade down toward Cocytus.
Cocytus frowned, raising the Silver Halberd: Decapitating Fang in his hand to meet the attack.
"Clang!"
The crisp sound of weapons clashing exploded in their ears.
The two of them each stepped back half a pace.
"A fine weapon!" Cocytus praised, though a cold light flickered in his eyes. "But that is all it is."
Before his voice had even faded, Cocytus swung his halberd once more.
Carrion dodged to the side, simultaneously gripping the White Dragon Guan Dao and slashing toward Cocytus's neck.
"An opening!"
The moment the words left his mouth, Cocytus's form suddenly pivoted, and his left hand punched toward Carrion's chest.
Bang!
Carrion was sent reeling back several steps by the blow.
His powerful physique prevented him from taking any actual damage, but his expression grew solemn.
The big blue beetle in front of him truly had some skill.
The two quickly clashed again, the intensity of the battle exceeding everyone's expectations.
Strangely, despite fighting for a long time, neither had sustained any injuries.
Cocytus was exceptionally skilled in weapon combat, but one must not forget that he was the 'Uncle Bug' who held the title of Lord of the Glacier.
The ice magic in his hands was equally formidable.
Carrion was the same; the Beast King's powerful physique gave him the advantage in close-quarters combat.
However, he wasn't just a meathead who only knew how to fight up close.
He had barely mobilized any of the Magical Essence in his body, and he hadn't used his ultimate move, 'Beast Particle Cannon,' even once.
Although golden energy swirled around him, everyone understood the purpose.
Rather than a duel, it would be more accurate to call their fight a sparring match.
