Chapter 97: On the Battlefield_l
Translator: 549690339
Feeling the relentless chilly wind through the gap of his full-cover helt, Leo Ray noticed sothing.
Due to the high atmospheric pressure surrounding the mountains and the uneven heights of the valleys, several massive wind tunnels were ford on this spacious plain.
This caused the surrounding winds to rise wildly, making the banners on both sides flutter and almost drown out the battle cries of the soldiers up front.
Leo Ray squinted as he looked towards the center of the battlefield.
Given his relatively forward position, he could clearly see the situation on the battlefield.
In such unstable winds, both armies abandoned their archers and mages and began clashing head-on.
In the center of the battlefield, the first to engage were the main forces of both sides: their light infantry formations.
Countless soldiers clad in light armor, wielding either longswords or battle-axes in their hands, roared as they charged into the enemy’s ranks.
Like the surging tides of two rivers, they swiftly rged into the steel torrent of their opponents, with blades flashing and swords whirling, stirring up one blood-red wave after another.
In an instant, the pungent sll of blood, accompanied by the whistling wind, entered the nostrils of every soldier on the battlefield, making the atmosphere even more intense.
Although the first batch of soldiers to make contact on both sides was comprised of the most elite warriors,
It didn’t take long for all of them to vanish in the midst of battle.
Many of them did not die at the hands of the enemy, but were trampled to death by the following soldiers due to their injuries or loss of balance.
Leo Ray, whose mind was agitated by the large-scale battle happening before him, and surrounded by Taylor and other four powerful subordinates, naturally was most concerned about the ever-changing situation on the battlefield.
“Taylor, what’s the current situation?”
Leo Ray gathered his wits and turned his gaze back before speaking.
“My Lord, although our frontline forces are currently engaged in battle with similar strengths, the enemy’s Tier 3 Powerhouses have significantly reduced in numbers.
So, our overall montum is clearly stronger than theirs, not to ntion our yet unrevealed third force.”
Taylor closed his eyes, both expanding his perception to its maximum and responding, “In this situation, even if we withdraw, the Saint Night Army will achieve a major victory if there are no surprises.”
“That’s great. Lord, everything is going just as you predicted.”
Scarlett, hidden under a cloak and holding a Tier 3 Magic Book, couldn’t help but be elated. “It seems that our last straw has indeed crushed the Coldfla Army’s cal.”
“Lord, what should we do next?”
Taylor asked softly with closed eyes.
“The situation on the battlefield can change in an instant, so let’s wait a bit longer.”
After a brief pause, Leo Ray’s bright eyes hidden under his helt, pondered, “I believe our opponents must have realized this as well, and if they want to turn the situation around, they have only one option.”
With a faint smile, Leo Ray continued, “They should send out the four Tier 4 Powerhouses, including their commander, to kill as many of our Tier 3 commanders as possible before our Tier Powerhouses intervene, bringing both sides’ strengths back to equilibrium.”
Upon hearing this, Taylor’s expression tightened, and he took off the ordinary greatsword from his back, lanting.
“That’s right. Everyone, be on your guard and let’s keep a close eye.”Leo Ray nodded slightly and refocused his attention on the battlefield not far away.
Not long after, as Leo Ray had anticipated.
The central army of the Coldfla Army and the light and heavy cavalry on both wings moved simultaneously without warning.
The enemy’s central army of nearly ten mixed brigades pressed forward towards the front army engaged in close combat.
anwhile, the six or seven cavalry corps on the left and right wings, bypassing the chaotic battlefield in the middle, charged like a big pair of crab pincers directly toward Leo Ray and the others in the central army.
Boom…
At this mont, although there was still so distance between the two sides.
The neighing of the enemy’s horses and the rumble of their hooves hitting the ground, like a dark cloud, surged into everyone’s heart.
Simultaneously, the Saint Night Army’s response was also swift.
The dull sound of a horn rang out as the cavalry units on both wings began to charge at the first opportunity.
Without a doubt, under these circumstances, the only unit capable of stopping this cavalry charge was another cavalry unit.
Leo Ray’s mixed magic warfare brigade, being in a reserve position, was not involved in this round of combat.
In no ti at all, accompanied by earth-shaking battle cries, the two fast- approaching steel torrents intermingled.
In an instant, a large number of armor fragnts and red blood flew into the air.
Amid the pandemonium, countless cavalryn were viciously stabbed off their warhorses and fell into the abyss of death.
A mont later, a cavalry squad of about three middle teams in the Coldfla Army’s camp broke through the encirclent and charged straight at Leo Ray and the others.
Seeing this, Baron Yeste and Female Knight Kara reacted swiftly, imdiately organizing cavalry to counterattack.
However, at this mont, the unexpected happened.
An extrely formidable montum suddenly erupted from the charging enemy cavalry squad.
Imdiately after, a black figure burst out and flew directly toward Leo Ray’s position.
At the sa ti, a cold and arrogant voice filled with malice rang out in everyone’s ears: “Just a few of you brats thought you could kill so many of our Coldfla Army’s powerful warriors? You’re nothing but a bunch of lucky wastes!
I’ll take your heads now, and in the face of absolute power, die in fear!”
“Tier 4 Powerhouse?!”
Feeling this extraordinary montum, Baron Yeste and Female Knight Kara’s faces couldn’t help but show an overwhelming sense of terror.
Without a doubt, they knew very well the difference between Tier 3 and Tier 4 Powerhouses was like an insurmountable chasm.
Furthermore, all three Tier 4 Powerhouses in the enemy’s camp were battle-hardened killers, drenched in blood.
At this point, even if the recently promoted pair were to join forces, it would be difficult for them to withstand even a single round against the enemy.
Without question, even Captain Christopher, who had five senior Tier 3 warriors guarding him, was no match for the enemy!
In their panic, Baron Yeste and Female Knight Kara involuntarily glanced at
Leo Ray.
However, to their surprise, they found that he had already removed his helt, and not only was there no fear on his face, but rather a brilliant excitent.
That smile was like a long-dormant hunter.
Finally, he had found his prey..
