501: Chapter 156: The Six Paths of Reincarnation, Group Battle (Part 1) 501: Chapter 156: The Six Paths of Reincarnation, Group Battle (Part 1) The Dragon Cavalry who were selected to take part in this group battle by Martin were, without a doubt, the best of the best, with the majority ing from Martin’s own personal guard.
These elite Dragon Cavalry had been through countless duels with the Behemoth Beasts in previous wars with the Thunder God Tribe, and they knew all too well the consequences of a direct clash with them.
Thus, from the beginning of the battle, without needing any mands from the mander, they had adopted a hit-and-run strategy, with every eight to ten Dragon Cavalry encircling one Behemoth Beast, spearheaded by three Machino the Iron Dragon Cavalry using their robust bodies and defensive power to hold off the Behemoth Beasts, while the remaining Eric Minlong the Cavalry attacked their weaknesses.
As a result, the inherent flaw of the Behemoth Beasts being without formation became apparent.
Even though their individual bat capabilities were much stronger than their opponents, the lack of tactical cooperation meant they were each isolated and struggling on their own.
Although the Dragon Cavalry couldn’t yet inflict serious damage, it wasn’t easy for the Behemoth Beasts to break free from the encirclement.
In the Six Paths of Reincarnation’s group battles, the old foes—Dragon Cavalry and Behemoth Beasts—clashed once again, and as the fight dragged on, the Behemoth Beasts began to fall into disadvantage.
Ye Yinzhu naturally observed the situation on the battlefield, but his emotions were tied to the zither music, and he didn’t pay too much attention.
In fact, the weakness of the Behemoth Beasts wasn’t much of a weakness at all, considering their individual bat capabilities were simply too formidable.
The nearly hundred Behemoth Beasts, led by three Gold Behemoths and six Silver Behemoths, could even rival the weakest of the Seven Dragon Cities.
The Behemoth Beasts’ pride meant that they didn’t need tactics in battle, and their spread-out attacks served another purpose.
As is well known, the bat effectiveness of Behemoth Beasts increases exponentially when in berserk state, turning them into true killing machines.
But the downside to berserk mode is huge.
Once berserk, apart from the Golden Behemoth, even the Silver Behemoths would lose track of friend and foe alike.
If they were too closely packed, they would start attacking each other.
Only by charging into enemy lines in a scattered formation could the true strength of the Behemoth Beasts be fully utilized.
Hence, the Three Great Beastman Tribes always adopted a tactic of dispersal when employing the Behemoth Beasts in battle, for with their formidable defensive capabilities, the Behemoth Beasts could easily retreat unscathed even when facing a true giant dragon.
Once the experienced Dragon Cavalry entrapped a Behemoth Beast, their numerical superiority and tacit cooperation immediately shone through.
Their seven-meter-long Dragon Spears always found their way onto the Behemoth Beasts from various angles, leaving behind small wounds.
With that, the Behemoth Beasts became increasingly irritable, emotionally edging closer to the brink of berserk.
While the Behemoth Beasts were already at a disadvantage under the siege of eight hundred experienced elite Dragon Cavalry, the brother Martins shifted their primary target to them.
Wind Attribute Magic, circling in the air, promptly descended upon the Behemoth Beasts.
An average of two to three Wind Attribute Mages “cared for” a Behemoth Beast, exerting immense pressure on the Army of Behemoths with the slicing power of Wind Attribute Magic.
However, there were anomalies within the Army of Behemoths—two Polar Ice Demon Apes, whose strengths were second only to the three Gold Behemoths, and this snowy weather was undoubtedly one of the best environments for them to fight in.
Thick ice fog continuously wafted from Ah-Er and Ah-San, paralyzing the surrounding Dragon Cavalry.
In their hands, they had claimed the lives of at least ten Dragon Tamers.
One had to admit the cunning of these elite Dragon Cavalry; with their exceptional Douqi, they managed to protect themselves with their dragon mounts and escape danger at the most critical moments.
Martin was extremely strict when selecting his personal guards, requiring not only that their Douqi reached at least the Yellow-rank Advanced rank and their age was under thirty-five, but also that they had experience in at least ten battles and had slain over a hundred enemies.
Only such tried-and-true iron-blooded warriors could earn his close scrutiny.
This method of selecting elites, although serving the same purpose as Xi Duofu’s training, was undoubtedly far more convenient.
However, it meant the elite selected were slightly older in age.
But being around thirty years old was the peak of a Human warrior, when experience, consciousness, and bat capability all reached their pinnacle.
Even in the battle against Thor Hammer Fort, Martin was reluctant to deploy this elite force lightly, as it was the ace of his aces.
Yet, bound by the Six Paths of Reincarnation’s rules, he had no choice but to utilize this most powerful personal guard in the group battle.
The rampaging Polar Ice Demon Apes immediately caught the brothers Martin’s attention.
Since Matlachi, being a Mage, couldn’t use his own Magical Beast Mount, he simply joined his brother on the injured Giant Water Dragon.
The two Zi rank Powerhouses, along with a rank Nine Giant Water Dragon, managed not only to contain the two Polar Ice Demon Apes but even expanded the battle to another two Silver Behemoths.
The two most powerful figures from the Zi Luolan Family essentially restrained four of the strongest batants in the Army of Behemoths.
bat with the Army of Behemoths was different from that with any other kind of troop.
For other troops, capturing the leader would seem like the best strategy, but this approach was absolutely ineffective against the Behemoth Beasts, because the Gold Behemoths’ defensive power was simply too strong, and even attacks from several rank Nine Giant Dragons might not cause them catastrophic damage.
Therefore, to counter the Army of Behemoths, one must first clip their wings before surrounding and taking down the leaders.
Consequently, the brother Martins and their Dragon Knights did their utmost to engage the dozen or so strong members of the Meng Army, buying time for their elite Dragon Cavalry and Mages.
Although the Behemoth Beasts were powerful, they were still Magical Beasts, especially the rank Seven Frenzied Behemoths, which, given enough time to inflict more damage, would ultimately undergo a qualitative change from the accumulation of injuries.
Just as Brother Martin had tactically arranged, the involvement of Mages significantly increased the injuries on the Behemoth Beasts, turning a slight disadvantage into plete restraint.
It was at this moment that the unique roar of the Behemoth Beasts finally rang out.
The first to let out such a roar were the three Golden Behemoths.
As the leaders of the Army of Behemoths and seeing that many Frenzied Behemoths were nearing the brink of defense break after the enemy Mages joined in, Dis was extremely angry.
Although the Behemoth Beasts were strong, their limited reproductive abilities constrained the growth of this powerful species.
Therefore, each family member was extremely important to the Behemoths.
Before heading into battle, Zi had instructed them to try to bring as many of their people back alive as possible under the premise of ensuring victory.
Zi’s grand unification enterprise of Beastman had not yet started and could not withstand excessive attrition.
Acpanied by the roaring of the three Golden Behemoths, the bodies of the Behemoth Beasts underwent tremendous changes.
Their already massive statures swelled again, and although their height remained the same, the muscles on their bodies bulged exaggeratedly.
Tiny wounds healed at an astonishing speed, the hundred-inch claws on their giant paws became even more solid and sharp, and their berserk power reached its peak in an instant.
In a disadvantaged position, Dis finally issued the mand to go berserk.
All Behemoth Beasts except the two Polar Ice Demon Apes fell into a state of berserk right away.
Withstanding the bombardment of Wind Attribute Magic, they launched a counterattack against their opponents.
Facing such a scene, Brother Martin was not alarmed but pleased.
You see, the Berserk transformation of the current Behemoth Beasts wasn’t their active Berserk, but a forced Berserk after being cornered.
Although, on the surface, there seemed to be no big difference between the two, but to an outstanding mander like Brother Martin, the differences were night and day.
A streak of Zi rank fighting spirit light flew from Brother Martin’s longsword, forming a special arc in mid-air.
Instantly, the formation of the elite Dragon Cavalry changed, and the circles that had been surrounding the Behemoth Beasts expanded in a flash, dodging the first attack of the Behemoth Beasts after their Berserk transformation.
Then, the Dragon Cavalry, led by Machino the Iron Dragon, quickly maneuvered the frenzied Behemoth Beasts around the battlefield.
Although this tactic came with a considerable cost, it was evident to the discerning eye that the elite Dragon Cavalry were leading the berserk Behemoth Beasts to gather in the same direction.
As the battle progressed to this point, the spectators from both sides understood Brother Martin’s intentions.
Although the destructive power of the Behemoth Beasts after their Berserk transformation was immense, what he aimed to utilize was the side effect of losing their senses after being berserk.
Once these frenzied Behemoth Beasts truly gathered together, what would follow would be them attacking each other, leading to their mutual destruction.
Having faced the charge of the mighty Army of Behemoths more than once, this tactic was ancient, but in battles against the Army of Behemoths, it had always been incredibly effective.
Using this method, Brother Martin had forced back the fierce assaults from Thor Hammer Fort on the Milan Empire numerous times.
However, an unexpected event occurred that Brother Martin did not foresee.
Just as they had sacrificed dozens of Machino the Iron Dragon Cavalry to draw the berserk Behemoth Beasts to the center of the battlefield, a dazzling purple light, like a second sun in the sky, drifted over.
