The Emperor is Above

Chapter 501: Allies are also hurt (420 additional chapters per subscription)

It is indeed good to have a powerful lord.

At least he can lead his retainers and private army to be invincible and unstoppable.

But when the lord became extremely powerful and had a group of even stronger tree spirits, strange beasts, and ferocious birds under his command, these retainers and private armies became a little nervous.

Whether it was the battle against the wild people in Jiming Lake, the subsequent Battle of Guqiu, the Battle of Shangcheng in the Capital, or the Battle of Yanze, it would be more accurate to say that they watched a few big dramas rather than participated in any major wars.

In these battles, it was almost always the lords and the tree spirits who took the lead, with the exotic beasts and ferocious birds serving as auxiliary combat units, that ultimately led to victory.

At most, after the victory, the retainers and private armies followed their lords in chasing the enemy and collecting spoils, and they felt guilty when they talked about it.

But it's all right now. The tree spirits didn't come with us, and the lord is fighting with the old witch. We are finally no longer a group of useless spectators on the coalition's side.

No matter how frustrated they felt before, they now feel so refreshed. The sour and refreshing feeling of crushing the enemy is really hard to describe in words.

Fourteen giant warriors including Wangmang Fish King, Wangmang Qiji, Wangmang Qubing, etc., carried two bulging packages in front of them, held a huge shield in one hand to protect themselves, and took out a crystal bomb in the other hand.

Each giant warrior was responsible for an area. He would casually throw a dozen bombs evenly over a hundred feet away, and then cover his ears skillfully.

"Boom boom boom——"

Amid the violent explosions, the densely packed Yin warriors and corpse puppets were cleared out in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a series of craters and countless broken debris.

Gongsun Wu and Fu Shou led the left and right camps of the Longcheng Guard, like two sharp swords, instantly piercing through and cutting through the Ghost Witch Army in front of them.

The outermost Dragon City Guard soldiers, holding swords, spears, halberds and large shields, were in charge of defense and counterattacks, while the inner guard soldiers were holding rune bows and arrows and shooting wildly.

The power of rune arrows is not as strong as that of crystal bombs, but they are more suitable for precision strikes. No enemy can be defeated within sight.

Even though the Yin Warrior leader had awakened his spiritual intelligence, he was quickly supplemented with a crystal bomb by the Wangmang giant and sent back to the Netherworld under the command of Gui Bo.

Under the combined lethality of the crystal bombs and rune arrows, the Yin warriors, who had always been fearless of life and death and bravely moved forward, were forced to retreat and hesitate.

As for the totem warriors and vassal people of the Ghost Witch Tribe, they very wisely chose to retreat when the crystal bombs kept exploding. They didn't dare to provoke them. They really didn't dare to provoke them!
Without the obstruction of the Yin warriors, corpse puppets, totem warriors, and vassal army wild people, the more than 6,000 troops had no more obstacles in front of them and quickly approached the encirclement where Shen Buhai and Shen Bumie were.

"Replace all of them with the largest crystal bombs, and be careful not to hurt our own people!"

At the warning from the Wangmang Fish King, the excited Wangmang Qiji and Wangmang Qubing quickly rummaged in their pockets and threw the fish out two hundred feet away with all their might, then quickly lay on the ground like everyone else.

"Boom boom boom——"

The Bone Demon Legion and the Black Cloud Ghost, who had just noticed the enemy approaching, had no time to react before they were torn into pieces in the explosion and turned into a pile of scattered bones, with no possibility of recovery.

Even the rolling black clouds in the sky and the ghostly black shadows hundreds of feet high were torn apart and dispersed by the strong spiritual energy fluctuations brought about by the explosion.

This masculine, powerful and violent explosion was second only to the power of thunder in terms of damage to ghosts and spirits, forcing them to howl and flee. "Hurry up, kill him while he's weak, continue to use small crystal bombs to attack, and we must completely break the encirclement, but we can't trap ourselves in it."

The Wangmang Fish King climbed up swiftly, throwing bombs wildly while shouting with a loud voice comparable to a loud speaker,

"Captains Shen Buhai and Shen Bumie, brothers from the Cheshi and Tuqi armies, we, the Dragon City Guards, are here to rescue you!"

The crystal bomb appeared on a large-scale battlefield for the first time, causing heavy losses to the Bone Demon Legion and the Ghost Witch Army, which were completely unprepared.

Apart from the billowing smoke and dust produced by the explosion that blocked the view, there were not many enemies blocking the charge. Many bone demons even dropped their weapons and fled in panic.

But after passing through the smoke and dust, Wangmang Fish King, Gongsun Wu and Fu Shou were embarrassed to find that their weapons not only hurt the enemy, but also the allies.

Even the army under the command of Emperor Diqiu had never experienced this kind of weapon. Hundreds of exotic beasts and heavy war horses were frightened by the violent explosion and fell to the ground.

Shen Buhai, who was wearing heavy rune armor, was coaxing them like the other cavalrymen, his eyes full of resentment.

The Cheshi soldiers were not much better off. The four horses pulling the carts were so frightened that they peed and shit all over the place, and their bodies were limp. They would not be able to recover for more than a quarter of an hour.

The chariots were covered with thick dust. The remaining 120 chariots with armored soldiers and elite soldiers looked like cultural relics just dug out of the ground, covered with a thick layer of dust.

Especially on the chariot where Shen Bumie was standing, a huge bone demon head occupied most of the carriage, and green flames flickered faintly in the empty hole.

Shen Buhai wiped the dust off his face with a wry smile. Two seriously injured soldiers and the five remaining elite soldiers huddled in the corner of the carriage, looking frightened.

"Hehe, I was just focusing on breaking through the Bone Demon's encirclement as quickly as possible, but I didn't expect the power would be so great!" Wangmang Fish King scratched his head apologetically.

Shen Bumie bowed his hands helplessly and thanked them, “I thought I was going to die here today, but I didn’t expect you guys to come to rescue me.

These horses have never experienced such a horrific explosion before, and they will get used to it in the future. I also want to thank the Dragon City Guards for their help, and I will remember this in my heart."

The Cheshi soldiers and the alien beast heavy cavalry also knew what was good for them. Although they felt sorry for their horses and mounts, they also thanked the Longcheng Guards for their rescue. The war horses could at least get up and move after a short rest.

Fortunately, after the fierce attack just now, even the invisible black clouds, phantoms, and bone demons began to fear the Dragon City Guards. They kept hovering in the distance but did not dare to approach.

After resting for a quarter of an hour, the frightened four horses and the strange beast cavalry finally regained the ability to move. Under the protection of the Dragon City Guards, they safely retreated back to the coalition forces' formation and were greeted with countless cheers.

Yang Lezi and Zhao Wensheng breathed a sigh of relief. The 5,000 reinforcements sent by the emperor were finally not completely destroyed here, otherwise this battle would have been really ugly.

Tens of thousands of generals and soldiers of the allied forces of the princes were also cheering in their hearts. They were not only happy that the Cheshi and Tuqi troops had returned safely, but more importantly, they saw the powerful fighting power of the Longcheng Guards.

They all thought to themselves that with such a powerful army with exceptional combat effectiveness, there was no need to be afraid even if a legion of bone demons rushed over!
You can definitely let go and fight with all your might. Maybe you can gain a lot of military merit by following the Dragon City Guards and the Mage Battalion.
