Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1746 Desert Pursuit
It was no coincidence that the snake-man army, led by the snake-man king, ran into the vanguard that came to provide support.

Don't forget, they're on their way to Outpost Three.

Unless they take a detour, they're 100% guaranteed to run into each other!

This was already predetermined when the Snake King misjudged the situation last night.

Isn't this also a case of walking into a trap?

If they were infantry, they would definitely be lying in wait, ready to ambush them.

Unfortunately, Joseph and his men were cavalry, and centaur cavalry at that, each one a large and imposing figure, making it difficult for them to hide in the desert.

At the same time, once the snake people get close to them, the cavalry will be unable to pick up speed and engage in a melee with the snake people in the desert. From a military perspective, they will actually be at a disadvantage.

For them, calculating the distance accurately and launching a direct charge is the wisest course of action.

Now, having learned the latest situation from the Giant Eagle Knight, Joseph was completely unconcerned that all the snake people had burrowed into the yellow sand. At this point, they had already entered each other's field of vision.

[High-speed dash!]

As soon as the mantra was spoken, the centaur cavalry's charging speed increased to another level, accompanied by the spread of invisible power.

Meanwhile, the Snake King, who had been secretly observing from under the yellow sand, finally saw Joseph and his companions clearly, and his mind went blank.

No, they're over here. Who was it last night?

In that instant, the Snake King clearly felt his mind was not working properly, but the situation before him left him no time to think.

“Everyone, scatter!!”

The momentum of their charge was so swift and unwavering that even a fool would know they had been exposed.

The snake people do move faster in the desert than regular infantry, but they can't possibly outrun the centaur cavalry!

The commotion of a large number of snake people scattering and fleeing under the yellow sand could not possibly escape the perception of a Vajra Realm martial artist.

Having seized the opportunity, Joseph Lisso gave the order.

[Charge into battle!!]

In an instant, the centaur cavalry's mantra combat technique erupted!

Driven at maximum speed, the shockwaves of the war charge swept wildly across this desert!
Joseph, in particular, is naturally faster than ordinary centaurs thanks to his own talent, and now he has the added strength of the Vajra Realm.

He sprinted at full speed, and in the blink of an eye, he could leave an entire centaur cavalry far behind.

This exaggerated speed of charge has now been entirely transformed into the energy of a wartime assault.

With that stomp, a terrifying super shockwave instantly spread out wildly!
If these ordinary snake-men hiding under the yellow sand were unfortunately struck head-on by Joseph's war charge with its super shockwave, their livers and gallbladders would be shattered on the spot! There would be absolutely no chance of survival!

If this move were used by an ordinary centaur, it would be a tactical skill to break through enemy lines.

Combined with Joseph's talent, the War Charge skill has transformed into a terrifying reaping ability for him! It has almost pushed Joseph's strength to the point where he can single-handedly form an army!

In their previous two encounters, Joseph had been somewhat restrained due to a lack of understanding of his enemy and the influence and limitations of the environment and terrain.

Now that he has gradually become accustomed to the desert environment and has gained some understanding of the snake people, he has completely let loose this time.

In the blink of an eye, Joseph shook the entire desert region to its core.

Sometimes, even before he could see the snake-man in the area he was rushing through, the yellow sand beneath his feet was already soaked with large patches of blood.

Those who didn't have time to emerge from the yellow sand were buried on the spot.

The terrifying scene terrified countless snake-men, who scattered and fled in all directions.

Faced with this situation, how many they could kill was basically entirely up to fate; the more snake people died, the more advantageous it would be for them! Joseph charged ahead recklessly, and the centaur cavalry following behind him seemed more like they were cleaning up the mess for him.

During this time, Hilk was clearly unable to join the centaur's group charge.

To avoid interfering with each other, he and Chitose were wandering around the outer area, searching for traces of the Snake King and the Desert Serpent.

That Snake King is getting more and more cunning these days.

Seeing that something was wrong, he disappeared into the desert and never showed himself again.

Even considering that the opponent possessed the strength of the Vajra Realm and that their movement speed far exceeded that of ordinary snake people.

By now, they've probably already run far away.

Compared to the somewhat melancholy Hilke, Joseph on the battlefield went completely berserk.

The snake people were fleeing for their lives, while Joseph and his centaur cavalry launched a relentless pursuit.

Joseph was no longer concerned about where the Serpent King and the Desert Serpent were. He would kill as many Serpents as he could, and his only goal was to reduce the Serpent race's strength. He would leave the rest to Li Ce and Hilke.

During this process, Hilke and Chitose, who were on the outskirts of the battlefield, did not directly enter the battlefield, but they also confirmed the movement of the troops from the outside and moved with the troops.

Gradually, Hilke frowned.

Are we going further and further astray?

Clearly, no one could answer his question at that moment.

Looking around, all I could see was sand, with no landmarks to refer to, and I completely lost my sense of direction.

This made Hilke frown.

Just as he was trying to find the Giant Eagle Knight and confirm his location through him.

A strong wind suddenly swept through the area where they were, blowing up the yellow sand beneath their feet and quickly turning it into a sandstorm, significantly affecting their visibility.

"What's going on? There was no warning at all, and suddenly the wind started blowing?!"

This obviously unusual situation alerted Hilke.

Hilk himself is also wind-elemental, so he is often particularly sensitive to wind elemental energy.

After a brief moment of sensing, he quickly realized that something was wrong.

"This wind contains a special energy; it's not a naturally formed wind, but rather something that has been stirred up by some means!!"

Upon realizing this, Hilke's mind was already on high alert.

At the same time, Joseph, who was leading centaur cavalry in pursuit of the snake people, was also engulfed by the sandstorm.

"Stop it all!"

At that moment, Joseph, who also realized something was wrong, quickly signaled the centaur riders to stop the pursuit.

Meanwhile, the Snake King and the Desert Giant Serpent, who had already fled far away, also emerged from under the yellow sand to check the situation after sensing something was wrong.

Upon seeing the sandstorm before him, the Snake King's expression instantly changed.

I subconsciously looked around.

"Damn it, how did we get here? Let's get out of here!!"
