Chapter 697 The Stone Giants' Counterattack

The morale of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group was low. After fighting for so many days, their 3.5 million troops had dwindled to 520,000, far inferior to Niuren Tribe. Furthermore, Niuren Tribe had more catapults left, and over ten thousand flying mounts loomed in the sky. If war broke out, they would have virtually no hope of winning.

A feeling of dejection spread through everyone's hearts. Just when they were about to despair, Angel Feather said in the team chat, "After fighting till now, Niuren Tribe only has over 600,000 troops left. We haven't lost yet. Everyone, buck up!"

Angel Feather's words did not restore their spirits. The signs of defeat were already evident; Angel Feather's few words couldn't reverse the situation.

Angel Feather understood that saying anything at this point was superfluous. He said in a deep voice in the team chat, "Tian Xie, Lie Yan, let our people begin!"

"Yes!" Tian Xie and Lie Yan responded in the team chat.

When there were millions of troops, some things couldn't play a significant role. But now that the number of troops on both sides had sharply decreased, they could use all their special moves.

In the Angel Corps camp, hundreds of shamans were divided into dozens of groups. Eight of them gathered in a small open space and began chanting long spells, the magical elements fluctuating violently.

What were they doing? The surrounding players retreated, filled with surprise and uncertainty. The positions these shamans stood in had a peculiar pattern, like a magic circle. In the center of them were druids, wearing only very ordinary decorative clothes, looking up at the sky, as if praying devoutly for something.

Beams of white light tore through the sky and landed on these druids.

Roar, roar, roar!

One violent roar after another sounded. These druids were like ferocious beasts roaring at the sky. Their bodies rapidly swelled, growing bigger and bigger, until they turned into giant gorillas, covered in gray-white hair, five or six yards tall.

There were as many as thirty of them, extremely fierce.

The surrounding players retreated, shocked by these giant beasts.

What a terrifying transformation skill!

They knew that druids had transformation skills, but they only transformed into wolves, bears, and other creatures of normal size. This was the first time they had seen them turn into such giant gorillas.

How powerful would these giant beasts be in combat! Even withstanding the attacks of catapults, the iron projectiles fired by the catapults could not easily knock them over.

On the other side, more shamans chanted spells. They all held scrolls in their hands, covered with strange symbols, giving people a mysterious feeling. After a moment, after they finished chanting, over a thousand tall stone giants appeared out of thin air in the crowd, slightly smaller than those white gorillas, but their bodies were covered with something. After seeing it clearly, everyone gasped. They were black powder packs!

The players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group remembered that the shamans had been holding sealing scrolls, which were used to seal monsters encountered in the wild into scrolls, and summon them when needed to use them for their own purposes. These stone giants were equipped with a large number of black powder packs that could be detonated during battle. Their inspiration came from the Niuren Tribe's self-destructing wind dragons, using their methods against them.

Each stone giant carried two kilograms of black powder. Although the power was not as great as the Niuren Tribe's self-destructing wind dragons, there were a large number of them and they were easy to make. They had made more than two thousand of them, and this was only a part.

The players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group then realized that Angel Feather and the others had prepared such a backup plan. It seemed that they were not without hope of victory, and their morale improved somewhat.

Nie Yan mounted his shadow demon wolf and looked towards the legions of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group. He saw that many giant creatures had appeared on the Angel Corps and Century Financial Group side. He smiled slightly, "The final battle is finally about to begin. Let me see what you are capable of!"

"Full encirclement! Catapults advance!" Nie Yan said in a deep voice.

Niuren Tribe's ironclad catapults began to press forward, launching a dense barrage.

Dense iron projectiles rained down on the opposite side.

"Kill! Let the stone giants blow them up!" Seeing Niuren Tribe's troops charging towards them, Angel Feather shouted, and thousands of stone giants charged towards Niuren Tribe's camp.

These stone giants were very dispersed. Dense iron projectiles fell, smashing several stone giants, causing bursts of explosions. Boom, boom, boom, the fallen stone giants turned into balls of hot flames.

But many stone giants still rushed over.

"Everyone be careful, these stone giants will self-destruct!"

But the stone giants charged straight over, and they had no way to avoid them!

Nie Yan frowned slightly. Angel Feather and the others had become smarter, actually using the same trick against Niuren Tribe.

"Yao Zi, use magic to bombard them. Dao Guang, Lei Su, Shui Se, we'll go up and clear them out!" Nie Yan said in a deep voice, controlling the shadow demon wolf under him to charge forward.

Brilliant Dao Guang and Lei Su activated Charge and rushed forward.

"Nie Yan, should I summon the Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon?" Shui Se Yan Tou asked.

"Summon it, there's nothing left to hold back." Nie Yan said in a deep voice. The shadow demon wolf suddenly leaped up, its sharp steel teeth biting the neck of a stone giant in one bite, instantly killing it! Before the stone giant could detonate, the shadow demon wolf leaped up again. With a boom, Nie Yan felt a deafening explosion behind him. The shadow demon wolf barely dodged the shock wave from the stone giant's explosion.

The shadow demon wolf staggered before regaining its footing. Fortunately, the explosion did not cause any substantial damage to it.

After staying on the ground for only a moment, the shadow demon wolf pounced on another stone giant.

"Okay, then I'm coming too!" Shui Se Yan Tou whispered, "Come out, Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon!"

Boom, a giant earth dragon appeared before everyone's eyes. The ground shook violently. The tall Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon attracted everyone's attention. What a terrifying earth dragon! Nie Yan's golden earth dragon was like an immature child in front of this Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon.

Roar, the Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon charged out, raising its giant palm and slapping it on a stone giant. The stone giant was sent flying, and with a boom, a violent explosion occurred in the air, but the resulting shock wave only slightly shook the Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon's body.

The shadow demon wolf and the Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon cleared the oncoming stone giants at an amazing speed. Although the thousands of stone giants had a lot of health, through the dense shooting of the ironclad catapults and the obstruction of the players, only two or three hundred of them finally rushed over and detonated. Boom, boom, boom, deafening explosions rang out, and the resulting shock waves swept over some of Niuren Tribe's players and catapults, causing considerable damage to Niuren Tribe.

Nie Yan looked back. Even the explosion of only two or three hundred stone giants had caused considerable damage to Niuren Tribe. With a gloomy face, he said, "Shui Se, follow me and kill them!"

"Okay!" Shui Se Yan Tou said heroically.

The Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon and the shadow demon wolf charged towards Angel Corps and Century Financial Group at the same time.

"All flying mounts, charge!" Nie Yan ordered, and over sixteen thousand flying mounts in the sky began to dive.

Angel Feather was commanding the players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group to prepare to launch an attack on Niuren Tribe. Seeing the giant shadow demon wolf and Violet-Eyed Earth Dragon charging towards them, he shouted, "All catapults, bombard them, smash them flat!" He looked up at the sky. Countless flying mounts swooped down. The thing he was most worried about had finally come. When they had several thousand catapults before, they didn't have to be afraid of the diving flying mounts at all. A few thousand catapults could shoot down all the flying mounts in a few rounds of concentrated fire. But now, with only a few hundred catapults left, they seemed a bit overwhelmed in the face of such a huge flying force.

"Open the barrier!"

"Quickly open the barrier!"

A huge light curtain rose in the sky. Hundreds of mages worked together to activate a large defensive magic, a defensive aura, which could temporarily defend against the impact of air forces, but it wouldn't last long.

Dense iron projectiles fell, wanting to smash Nie Yan's shadow demon wolf.

Nie Yan looked up. Dozens of black iron projectiles screamed down towards him. After all, the ironclad catapult was a large machine, and its attack power was very strong. If he was hit by several iron projectiles at the same time, even if Nie Yan could withstand it, he would be in bad shape.

He gave the shadow demon wolf a command. The shadow demon wolf suddenly jumped to the right front. Nie Yan could feel several iron projectiles brushing past him, but with his reaction speed and movements, it wouldn't be easy for these iron projectiles to hit him.

The players of Niuren Tribe in the rear hadn't had time to advance yet. Seeing Nie Yan take the lead and rush out several hundred yards, they were all extremely nervous, afraid that something would happen to Nie Yan.

Facing such a huge force of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group alone, Nie Yan had no fear at all. A feeling of heroism welled up in him. Angel Corps and Century Financial Group, today I will completely shatter your morale!

The shadow demon wolf suddenly jumped up twenty or thirty yards high and pounced down towards the place where the players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group were concentrated.

The players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group below were panicked when they saw the shadow demon wolf pouncing down and scattered to both sides.

But their speed was too slow, not even close to the speed of the shadow demon wolf. With a boom, the shadow demon wolf landed, knocking twenty people flying.

The shadow demon wolf tore and bit ferociously. Wherever it went, no one could withstand the shadow demon wolf's attack.

Even Brilliant Dao Guang, if he didn't have a priest to heal him, wouldn't dare to say that he could withstand the shadow demon wolf's attack, let alone these ordinary players of Angel Corps and Century Financial Group.
