Mighty Lord Chapter 197 - 197 197 Bone Dragon

197: Chapter 197: Bone Dragon 197: Chapter 197: Bone Dragon “Looking for death!” Despite the fact that his centaur archers were facing exceptional circumstances and could not provide him support in the short term, Zhou Tian remained calm.

Just like he didn’t care about the support of those centaur archers, he watched the undead creatures rushing towards him indifferently.

After swearing coldly, he imdiately commanded his beastn warriors to fight against them.

By now the battle has progressed to this point.

Even though its course wasn’t deliberately arranged by Zhou Tian, none of the actions of the undead creatures fell beyond his expectations.

In terms of power, the undead creatures were not only inferior to the beastman tribe, but they were also weaker than the monsters nearby Zhou Tian.

Therefore, an encounter against them wasn’t sothing that gave him too much concern.

After all, Zhou Tian was confident of his beastman tribe being stronger than them.

As such, he saw the attack of those undead creatures as nothing more than their march towards death.

As a result, with the release of several of Zhou Tian’s skills and impressive performances from his beastman warriors, even though the undead creatures marshalled a massive attack, their onslaught ultimately posed no threat to Zhou Tian’s defense line.

Countless undead creatures continuously rushed at Zhou Tian’s army.

Other than the ongoing casualties wrought on them by his beastman warriors, not to ntion the defense line, even Zhou Tian’s minions didn’t suffer significant losses.

Considering that situation, the attack launched by those undead creatures seed like nothing more than suicide.

Zhou Tian didn’t overthink it; in his eyes, the undead creatures were indeed left with no way out.

Given their circumstances, their only chance to turn the tide was to employ the human sea tactic.

Thus, judging by the way those undead creatures were fighting, even if it seed like suicide, it was their normal response.

Seeing that he had already driven the undead creatures into a desperate situation, Zhou Tian wouldn’t overthink it.

In fact, the developnt of the situation then was very similar to what Zhou Tian had anticipated.

The undead creatures never showed a hint of giving up, even when they suffered heavy casualties in direct confrontations with Zhou Tian.

Though Zhou Tian managed to inflict serious damage on the undead creatures with his superior strength, he did not escape without losses amidst their relentless attacks.

During the period when Zhou Tian was directly clashing with those undead monsters, they exploited their mbers hidden behind Zhou Tian to repeatedly attack his centaur archer legion.

As a result, Zhou Tian’s centaur archer legion ended up in a semi-paralyzed state.

The attack intensity of the centaur archer legion, which had always been supporting the frontline, posed no threat to the enemies anymore.

Without the centaur archers as the main force, even though Zhou Tian’s beastn were slightly stronger than the undead monsters, they still unavoidably suffered casualties under the relentless onslaught.

As a result, during the continuous combat, the ratio of casualties between Zhou Tian’s beastn and the undead creatures remained around fifteen to one.

Although Zhou Tian held an absolute advantage regardless of the situation, one had to admit that if the undead creatures truly possessed unlimited military power, defeating Zhou Tian would not be impossible.

Of course, the idea of infinite soldiers was a farce.

After all, even with the Demonic Transformation Pool, there was still the need for ‘tributes’ for each batch of soldiers.

The undead creatures were notorious for having large armies, but no matter how nurous their forces were, they would eventually run out.

Even if the forces of the undead creatures were not unlimited, considering their current performance, it was just a matter of ti before other monsters collapsed under their human sea tactic.

However, due to Zhou Tian’s preparations and the unique thods that beastman tribe had for replenishing its soldiers, even if they had several key domains that required garrisons, Zhou Tian was confident that he could outlast the undead creatures under the current battle conditions.

But just as Zhou Tian prepared to wear down the undead creatures with the ongoing battle, their hidden moves were revealed on the other side.

Even if they know their strength is inferior to the Beastman Tribe, those undead monsters would never just sit back and wait to die.

For these creatures, even defeat is not a great matter, as the one trait they’re well-known for is their vast numbers.

Any loss in military power can easily be replenished by them.

While they can tolerate failure, they cannot stand the loss of territory.

Given the purpose-specific terrain and characteristics of the Undead Territory, even stronger monsters would likely fail when battling them.

Due to these specifics of the Undead Territory, annexing it poses a great difficulty unless all nearby undead monsters are wiped out.

Because of the specialty of the Undead Territory, the undead monsters wouldn’t usually care too much if they fail to invade other territories.

Hence, even when the Beastman Tribe had weak strength in the past, the undead monsters were able to coexist with Zhou Tian in peace.

However, due to these sa conditions, they would never accept their land getting annexed.

Therefore, when Zhou Tian began to incorporate the conquered Undead Territory, these undead monsters fiercely resisted.

Zhou Tian didn’t think too much about it, so when he saw the undead monsters constantly launching ‘suicidal’ attacks he thought the situation was normal and relaxed his guard slightly.

Yet in reality, given the value the undead place on their territory, they wouldn’t spare only minor efforts.

As a result, just when Zhou Tian thought he had defeated the undead monsters, a monstrous roar made him realise how horribly wrong he was.

“Roar!” A sudden roar from above alerted Zhou Tian, causing him to hastily look in the direction of the sound.

Zhou Tian would typically pay attention to what was above him; however, given that the Undead Territory was underground and the vertical space was not high, he did not pay much heed to the roof.

Had it not been for the roar, he would not have known that there were enemies above him.

“How could this be?” Zhou Tian was taken aback by the creature he saw when he looked up.

“Roar!” A roar echoed from the sky again.

Just as Zhou Tian wanted to prepare counterasures, the airborne enemy had already lunged at the beastman army under Zhou Tian’s command.

There was only one enemy, but Zhou Tian dared not scorn it because the enemy he was facing was a dragon, a creature of legend.

A Bone Dragon, although weakest amongst all the dragons, it was still a dragon.

Even if it was one of the weakest in the Dragon Clan, it would still be considered a formidable monster in other clans.

Zhou Tian had never expected to alert such a high-end undead soldier like Bone Dragon during his battle with the undead monsters.

However, now that the Bone Dragon had appeared, regardless of the surprise, the first thing he had to think about was how to counteract the Bone Dragon.

True to its formidable reputation, the Bone Dragon launched an attack during Zhou Tian’s distraction, which quickly altered the battle situation.

Previously, the defensive line Zhou Tian constructed with his Beastman warriors, bolstered by the fire support from the Centaur Archer Legion at the rear, had remained undefeatable like Mount Tai against hordes of undead monsters.

They had never posed a real threat to Zhou Tian, only leaving stacks of corpses behind.

Nevertheless, the defensive line Zhou Tian had believed unbreakable, soon had a breach torn through it after the Bone Dragon joined the battle.
