Thousands of soldiers lay in ambush around a plain, surrounded by sparse trees and mountain rubble from unknown sources.
They were distributed several hundred ters apart on either side, facing each other.
There was no intention to hide at all.
On the road ahead, there were so deeply hidden traps.
A cavalryman’s horse snorted softly.
The knight imdiately soothed the horse, as it was crucial to remain silent and wait now.
Light shone down from the sky.
From afar, the small plain appeared devoid of soldiers.
It seed that the soldiers who were ambushed here just a mont ago had suddenly disappeared.
An ordinary man with gray long hair, holding a staff as tall as himself, was clad in fine light armor.
The gemstone on the staff emitted a faint glow.
This glow attracted magic power and adhered it to the surface of many soldiers.
Causing them to blend into their surroundings.
Combined with the current light from the sky, dazzling eyes, making it hard to notice anything unusual unless one carefully observed the surroundings.
It’s not that the blue faction’s general did not want to cast higher-level magic, but this magic was enough.
Simple and practical, mainly highly concealed, it’s hard to sense the fluctuation of magic power, perfect for ambush.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Dark Servants were transford into creatures similar to semi-undead with keen senses for detecting life forms, they would have been truly fooled.
Hearing the severe hoofbeats from afar.
"Here they co, prepare for battle, stay hidden."
As the general’s voice reached every soldier’s ear, all soldiers gripped their weapons tightly and remained motionless.
Waiting for the enemy to fall into their traps.
The astonishnt and terror on the enemies’ faces, surprised by the suddenly appearing foes, seem to appear right before them.
Kreya and Kane lead the charge within the team.
Kane’s eyes had already transford into eagle-like pupils.
The soldiers concealed by stealth magic were like children believing they had taken invisibility potions, prancing in front of adults.
The cannon barrels started to unfold around Kane’s warhorse, erging from within him, and the magic power in Kane’s hand began to disperse into battle, adding more firepower.
Thus, the chanical warhorse quickly expanded into a mobile firepower platform.
A blood-red Lion King phantom appeared around Kreya, and a halo beneath her feet spread outward.
All soldiers had lion claw-like marks appearing on their bodies.
Their berserk powers surged.
Yet Kreya still didn’t chant the magic-laden words of attack.
She was waiting for Kane.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Thunderous noises erupted from beside them; it was Kane’s firepower platform, unleashing slaughter.
Like playing a ga with wooden figurines, the enemy troops were blown away and toppled by sudden explosions beside them.
The enemies’ terrified faces didn’t have a chance to erge, but instead, that expression appeared on their own faces.
Realizing this, the general imdiately retracted his mana and shouted loudly, "Our ambush has failed, attack!"
He grabbed his magic staff and swung it forcefully before him, a giant ripple of magic power spread out, sealing off the sky, thus intercepting the incoming firepower.
Explosive flas and smoke erupted in mid-air.
The magic power ripples also began to vibrate intensely.
Yet, despite this, the general was still persistently channeling magic, holding firm.
While Kane’s first surprise attack didn’t yield significant results.
Apart from soldiers extrely close to the explosion, those slightly farther away were blasted down but imdiately crawled back up, barely hard.
However, Kane had foreseen this situation, since the difficulty had already been heightened, all the enemies had been enhanced.
He couldn’t quickly eliminate them like in previous battles, like cutting down chives.
Moreover, needless to say, these generals must have also been strengthened; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to protect so many shells using magic power.
Indeed, it’s the dungeon’s desperate strike.
Truly not to be underestimated.
"Attack!"
Kreya also issued the command to attack, with the final wave of enhancents applied to all soldiers.
They who were already advancing quickly, instantly charged forward on their warhorses.
Kreya transford into a white ghostly form, the flas of blue fire spread from her body, as 8 Ghost Maids and 30 Ghost Knights erged beside her.
White Ghost Maids erged from Kreya, similarly bearing the blue flas.
They began assaulting the enemy troops like evil spirits in the sky.
They manifested white mist in their hands, floating toward the enemy troops below.
All soldiers inhaling the mist began to slow their steps, their expressions dazed, eventually dropping their weapons to the ground.
"Sleep! You’re very tired, sleep now!"
Many soldiers finally fell to the ground, yet their appearance seed not dead, but at least deprived of combat capability.
Greeting them was the first wave of arrows.
Finally, both sides engaged directly in lee combat, clashing together.
