Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013: The Legion is Fierce, Killing Wildly
Titan stood on a high ground behind the battlefield, overlooking the battlefield situation. Even though it was nighttime, the blazing torches and his vision far exceeding that of ordinary people due to his profound realm allowed him to see clearly the actions of the Demon Shield Bureau across the way.
Titan’s expression grew solemn. The strategy adopted by the Demon Shield Bureau, although quite clumsy, was undoubtedly highly effective. If the battle continued like this, the casualties for Sky Net would be disastrous, and when everyone was exhausted, Sky Net would ultimately fail.
Titan’s eyes flickered as he contemplated a method to counter the opponent’s strategy. Finally, he made up his mind and shouted, "Send down the order to have Tong Hu’s regiment return, and let Lin Xi’s regiment charge upward."
After giving the order, Titan thought for a moment and added another command, "The Ten Killings should also charge up with the regiment, with the primary task being to assassinate the enemy’s high-ranking arrivals, leaving them leaderless."
The messenger ran off quickly to convey the orders. Not long after, Lin Xi’s regiment, like a huge ferocious beast, slowly emerged from behind the fortifications in the dark, shaking the ground with an earth-shattering killing intent.
Tong Hu saw this scene. Once Lin Xi’s regiment had securely occupied their position on the battlefield, he slowly retreated.
When he reached behind the fortifications, Tong Hu tallied the casualties and discovered that out of a regiment of over four thousand people, only a little over three thousand remained. He couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
At this moment, Lin Xi’s regiment had engaged in a fierce battle with the newly arrived bio warriors, with an equally earth-shattering combat, a horrifying river of blood flowing.
During the battle, the Ten Killings initially hid among the regiment, exhibiting strength similar to ordinary soldiers, slowly approaching the bio warriors.
Once they got close to the bio warriors, the ten individuals suddenly erupted with full force, charging like a sharp blade into the enemy’s battle array.
In an instant, the ten joined forces to carve a bloody path through the thousands, leaving chaos in their wake.
Soon, the Ten Killings reached the rear of the bio warriors and, like thunder, charged toward the high-ranking arrivals in that unit, implementing their decapitation operation.
The arrival was also an A-grade master, who, upon seeing this scene, remained calm and ordered all the bio warriors to surround and annihilate the Ten Killings. Simultaneously, he courageously rushed forward to confront the Ten Killings head-on, shouting fiercely.
However, the Ten Killings were among the most terrifying forces within Sky Net. Each possessed the Innate Realm’s strength, and having obtained martial arts tomes from the Hua Shan Sect, they became even more formidable.
This A-grade master was indeed formidable; he might even defeat each of the Ten Killings individually in single combat. But against their combined force, he stood no chance. After a brief intense battle, a Tang sword pierced through his throat.
By now, the surrounding bio warriors closed in, layering upon one another densely, like a massive cage trapping the Ten Killings inside, each bio warrior roaring and charging upward.
On such a battlefield, with virtually no gaps between individuals and pressure upon one another, it was nearly impossible to fully showcase any great capability.
Moreover, the military emphasizes cooperation, and attacks would come from several persons at once, attacking from all directions, leaving no flaw to exploit.
Thus, even a martial arts expert, on such a battlefield, was in extreme danger, and being surrounded by so many adversaries, was surely doomed.
However, there were ten in the Ten Killings!
Faced with such an onslaught, they cooperated with one another, each defending a side, quickly repelling the first wave of bio warrior attacks.
Furthermore, without their leader, the bio warriors quickly fell into chaos. Lin Xi seized this opportunity, loudly urging the warriors behind him to attack forcefully.
Thus, the bio warriors could not focus all their energy on the Ten Killings; most of their attention was drawn to Lin Xi’s assault, leaving their attack on the Ten Killings significantly weakened.
After these multiple factors interplayed, the Ten Killings, after beheading the enemy’s top general, carved another bloody path and successfully broke free.
Then, they regrouped with Lin Xi and the others, initiating an assault on the opponent’s battle array.
After a fierce charge, without a leader, the bio warriors’ formation fell apart, and their morale collapsed. In panic, one bio warrior suddenly cried out in fear and began running backward, escaping.
This triggered a chain reaction!
The entire army began to rout.
Lin Xi laughed heartily, chasing after the fleeing enemies, as the bio warriors offered little resistance, focused only on escaping, making it remarkably easy to slay them. In mere moments, four or five-tenths of the bio warriors had fallen.
This was a major defeat for the Demon Shield Bureau!
From afar, Steel Man saw this and shook with rage, shouting orders to send several A-grade experts to the front and instructing the soldiers on the massive ships of the Demon Shield Bureau to shoot arrows at the retreating bio warriors to prevent their escape.
Meanwhile, deploying a new regiment.
After all, the Demon Shield Bureau had an army of several hundred thousand, unafraid of sacrifices. If one regiment was defeated, another could be dispatched in its place.
With these operations, the retreating bio warriors barely stabilized, and under the leadership of a few A-grade experts, launched a renewed assault against Lin Xi’s regiment.
Seeing this, Titan immediately ordered a retreat and sent another regiment led by a different general.
Thus, a new round of combat resumed here, like a cycle, like a loop.
The war continued on this cycle, with Titan continually sending one regiment after another to confront the enemy. After fighting for a while to subdue the Demon Shield Bureau, a new regiment would replace them.
The Demon Shield Bureau, in turn, continuously dispatched one regiment after another to launch offensives, almost every time being repelled by Sky Net, leaving countless corpses behind, but also inflicting significant casualties on Sky Net.
This battle continued until daybreak when it barely halted.
This was primarily because the Demon Shield Bureau’s bio warriors were already terrified of the fight and dared not attack again.
Steel Man also had to consider the morale of his men and could not force them, or the chances of failure would increase.
Titan, seeing the cessation of the enemy’s attack, happily stopped, called back the regiments from the front, and instructed them to rest well in preparation for the next battle.
Sunshine illuminated the scene.
On the battlefield, bodies piled up like mountains, rivers of blood flowed, staining the sea red, a scene of utter devastation.
