The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2992 Tempering in Blood and Fire, the Growing Three-Squad!

"Clang clang clang!"

"Contract the battle lines and retreat in an orderly manner!"

As the retreat bell tolled, Lin Chen unleashed his domain power, instantly creating a vast glacier in front of him. This glacier rapidly extended towards the demon soldiers on the opposite side, and a group of demons were instantly sealed within the solid ice.

The demons unleashed various magical weapons, instantly shattering the glacier before them.

In the short time that was bought, Lin Chen, Chen Shuihe, and the others had already covered the retreat of the three squads.

The demons surged forward again, but at this moment, countless formations were activated along the long defensive line, and powerful spiritual energy cannons roared, raining down spiritual energy shells into the demon horde and causing violent explosions.

A demon who appeared to be the leader was raising his arms and shouting when a spirit energy cannon flew over and hit him squarely.

Although he unleashed his full power in an instant, the immense energy of the spirit cannon tore through his protective barrier without any hesitation, blasting him into a cloud of blood mist. Not only that, the violent energy explosion instantly sent a group of people nearby flying.

Lin Chen put away the Gluttonous Blood Tree above his head, looked back at the defensive line under heavy fire, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the First Legion's first assault, and Sun Yixiao and others taking advantage of the chaos to investigate and bomb the Immortal-Demon Passage, the war between the Immortals and Demons has officially begun.

The demons surged towards the defensive line like a tidal wave, attempting to break through it completely. The immortals, on the other hand, held their ground, using the defensive line to their advantage. If the pressure became too great, they would launch a legion assault on the enemy outside the defensive line, while artillery would launch long-range attacks to cut off any demon reinforcements that might come their way.

After repelling the demons that were rushing towards the defensive line, the soldiers would retreat back to the front line and continue to use it to block the enemy.

The defense was not without its challenges; the lines were breached every now and then, allowing the demons to take advantage of the situation, wreak havoc, and even advance towards the interior, causing considerable losses.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides have been locked in a fierce battle for half a year.

In half a year, Lin Chen's team had gone into battle eight times, and each battle resulted in some casualties.

The dead were collected, the seriously wounded were sent to the rear for treatment, and the reserves were repeatedly replenished to fill the three squads' thousand-man strength.

After eight battles, many of them earned a lot of military merits. They used their rest time to earn the qualification to cultivate in the Ascension Hall, and their strength increased rapidly.

Although many battles have taken place and a significant portion of the original thousand-strong squad has been lost, the overall strength of the squad has greatly improved. The number of Great Luo Immortals has increased by at least two times compared to before. The squad is now the strongest among the nine major teams and ten squads, and its cohesion is also the highest.

The other teams envied Team Three because Team Three had an extremely powerful captain, Lin Chen! With the level of a mid-grade Great Luo Immortal, Lin Chen was able to dominate the battlefield, invincible and killing countless people. He had already earned the nickname "Little Killing God" in the First Legion.

Lin Chen possesses a Gluttonous Blood Tree, whose combat power on the battlefield grows increasingly ferocious and fierce with each battle. Every time it goes into battle, it kills and devours countless demons.

What truly makes others envious is not Lin Chen's individual strength, but rather that whenever faced with extremely difficult situations, Lin Chen releases the Demon-Summoning Banner, summoning varying numbers of powerful demons to help the three teams stabilize the situation or gain an advantage, preventing them from being directly overwhelmed by the surging impact.

As long as the three team members follow Lin Chen and don't act recklessly, they are unlikely to be caught off guard by a powerful opponent who breaks through their formation and sweeps them away.

This is why the third team had the fewest casualties and serious injuries, and they were also the easiest to earn merit.

Fighting against the wind is difficult, but following dozens of powerful demons and fighting with the wind at your back, it's not hard to make merits.

With plenty of opportunities to earn merit, rapid promotion, abundant rewards, and a low probability of dying in battle, which soldier wouldn't envy that?

Having successfully retreated back into the defensive line, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "After this battle, it'll be time for our First Legion to take a break again, right?"

Chen Shuihe, pale-faced and catching his breath, replied, "Yes, there is a two-month rest period."

In his last battle, Chen Shuihe encountered a peak Grand Luo Immortal and was injured. If Lin Chen hadn't summoned a group of powerful demons to stabilize the first wave of surging impact, Chen Shuihe would probably have been beaten to death, and the defense line of the three teams would have been directly breached.

Lin Chen instructed, "Report the disciples' military merits as soon as possible, and exchange them for what they can. Take advantage of this month to improve them further. Every bit of strength increases the chance of survival."

Chi Ya chimed in from the side, "I'll get it sorted out as soon as possible!"

Through countless battles, Lin Chen had long since become a spiritual totem in the hearts of all the members of the Third Squad.

They all knew very well that without Lin Chen, given their strength, after eight battles, probably less than a third of them would have survived.

Through repeated battles, the reputation of the Third Squad has become increasingly renowned within the First Legion.

If before they were just hoping, now they are certain that as long as they follow Lin Chen steadfastly, they will definitely return to Glory!

Regardless of their actual strength, the three squads are incredibly strong in spirit and morale!
As long as Lin Chen gives the order, even if they are ordered to charge into the demon camp to kill the demon king, they would dare to follow without hesitation!
