Reincarnation Paradise: The Void Debt Collector

They felt the destructive power contained in the vortex of brilliant elements, a power that was enough to destroy everything and filled them with fear, as if the end of the world was approaching.

"What the hell is this?" The soldiers of the Lion Legion looked at each other, their faces filled with fear and confusion.

They didn't know what the vision before them meant, but a voice deep in their hearts told them that this was not a good sign.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Holy Dragon Legion have keenly realized the seriousness of the situation.

They began to retreat in panic, "Damn it! It's war magic! Everyone run, run!" Shouts of fear rang out one after another, and the soldiers threw away their armor and weapons, as if these equipment that they relied on for survival in their daily lives had become a heavy burden at this moment.

They just wanted to escape from this battlefield that was about to become a purgatory as soon as possible and escape from the scope of this destructive force.

Across the battlefield, panic and confusion spread rapidly among the soldiers like wildfire.

They fled around in panic like headless flies, trying to find a way to escape.

However, no matter how hard they tried, the elemental force condensed in the sky was like an invisible giant hand, approaching them with unstoppable force.

Suddenly, a rumbling thunder sounded in the sky, like the angry roar of a god, shocking everyone.

A rain of fire like the end of the world fell from the sky, rushing towards the earth with a breath of destruction.

These flames were not ordinary fires, but raging flames blessed by powerful magic. They burned fiercely in the air, making hissing sounds, like giant fire beasts that could devour all life.

When the rain of fire came into contact with the ground, a deafening roar instantly erupted.

The flames splashed everywhere, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day, and also pushed the fear in people's hearts to the peak.

Each drop of fire rain was like a meteor carrying destructive power, smashing heavily on the ground, leaving deep charred marks, as if they were scars on the earth, which was shocking.

Under this raging rain of fire, the already dilapidated battlefield was further destroyed, becoming even more desolate and dilapidated.

Every place is filled with a doomsday atmosphere, as if this land has fallen into purgatory.

The soldiers screamed in terror in the rain of fire and fled in all directions, trying to find a safe shelter.

However, the density and power of the rain of fire left them with nowhere to hide.

The flames devoured everything mercilessly. Some people were hit directly by the flames and were almost reduced to ashes in an instant; others were affected by the violent explosion caused by the rain of fire, were seriously injured, and struggled painfully on the brink of life and death.

The entire battlefield has fallen into unprecedented chaos and panic. People’s cries, shouts for help and the roar of flames are intertwined together, forming a horrific picture of purgatory.

The air was filled with the pungent smell of burnt and sulfur, which mercilessly attacked everyone's sense of smell, making people frown and feel heavy and depressed.

Neither the orcs nor the human soldiers had time to continue fighting; their common enemy became this sudden disaster.

The soldiers' figures were looming in the firelight and smoke, like travelers lost in the fog, looking for a way out.

Faced with the rain of fire falling from the sky, the heavy shield soldiers around Lin Yi did not seem panicked.

They stood closely together, holding heavy shields, forming an indestructible line of defense.

The horror of war magic lies in its wide range. However, for the heavy shield soldiers led by Lin Yi, this rain of fire did not pose a fatal threat.

Relying on their excellent defense and tight formation, they firmly resisted the invasion of the rain of fire.

When the flames hit the shield, there was a crackling sound and sparks flew.

But this layer of solid defense was as stable as a mountain, and the flames could not penetrate it at all.

Looking at the soldiers who were blown to pieces outside.

Lin Yi took a look at the little abyss power he had left, took a deep breath, and decided to use the Chain of Life.

As Lin Yi spread out his palms, countless golden threads flew out from his hands and quickly shuttled among the injured people around him.

As these threads shuttled back and forth, many soldiers and injured contractors who were lying on the ground wailing began to feel their injuries recovering rapidly.

The pain in the body gradually subsided, and the originally pale face gradually became rosy.

In the war channel:

Killer 47 (Sanren): "Thanks to the doctor, the idiot on the other side actually launched an indiscriminate attack. I am really 凸(皿)."

Rose (Mechanical Corps member): "Don't say that. If it weren't for the boss's aura increasing my movement speed, I would have died long ago."

Bai Lie (Mechanical Corps member): "+1."

Fengxue (member of the God Emperor Adventure Group): "+1."

Mechanic (Mechanic Corps member): "The other side has used their most powerful trick. Brothers who are still alive in the Middle East Grand Canyon, please speak up. I will count how many people are still alive."

Chapter 163: Call off the battle (Please subscribe, please vote)

Lin Yi carefully counted the number of people who spoke and found that the casualties of the contractors were not as serious as he worried.

In the early stages of the war magic, except for a few unfortunate contractors who were directly hit by fireballs, most people showed excellent survivability after surviving the fierce and dangerous first round of attacks.

They sought and hid in various shelters, some hid behind boulders, some hid among the ruins, and some jumped into trenches to avoid the ensuing rain of fire.

These shelters provided them with protection to a certain extent, effectively reducing the direct impact and damage caused by war magic.

At this moment, the sound of retreating troops came from the depths of the canyon.

The sonorous and powerful sound echoed over the battlefield, penetrating the intertwined fire and smoke, and was conveyed clearly and loudly to every soldier.

Tuk Bourne knew the destructive power of war magic.

He understood that under such a powerful magical attack, even if some soldiers managed to survive the rain of fire, their overall combat effectiveness would have been seriously affected.

The soldiers were now exhausted, their morale had reached an unprecedented low, and many were seriously injured and in urgent need of treatment and recuperation.

Faced with this reality, Tuk Bourne made a decisive decision to retreat.

He knew that continuing the attack under such circumstances would not only fail to achieve the desired results, but might also put the soldiers' lives in greater danger.

For Tuk Burne and his army, retreat was not a symbol of failure, but a strategic choice to enable them to fight back more powerfully in future battles.

As the retreat horn sounded, the soldiers, under the orderly command of the commander, evacuated the battlefield in an orderly manner like a tide.

As the flames and smoke on the battlefield gradually dissipated, a devastated scene appeared before everyone's eyes.

The land ravaged by war magic was charred and destroyed everywhere, as if telling of the cruelty of the battle.

As a strategic-level means, war magic is extremely costly to use and consumes huge resources.

Tuk Bourne judged that the other party would never be able to cast such magic again in a short period of time.

This period of power vacancy is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime offensive opportunity for Tuk Bourne.

Under the close protection of the heavy shield soldiers, Lin Yi and other soldiers returned safely to the army formation.

Before launching the attack, Lin Yi was just an unknown third-class private in the army, and his existence did not attract special attention.

However, his performance on the battlefield made Lin Yi the focus of the army in a short period of time.

Many officers came forward and expressed their heartfelt gratitude and respect to Lin Yi.

If Lin Yi had not come to their aid at the critical moment, not only would the soldiers under their command suffer greater losses, but they themselves might not have been able to return to the barracks safely.

"Captain Lin Yi, Corps Commander Tuk Bourne is calling for you." The messenger's voice sounded outside the tent.

Lin Yi responded, turned around and clasped his fists to the officers around him, saying, "Everyone, I'm going to go to the corps commander first. Now that this is over, I'll treat you all to a drink later."

"Okay, okay, Captain Lin Yi, you go first. The matter with the corps commander is more important." The officers around responded one after another with smiles of deep respect on their faces.

Led by the messenger, Lin Yi came to the tent where Tuk Bourne was.

The soldier guarding the door glanced at Lin Yi but did not stop him. It was obvious that Tuk Bourne had already given the order.

Lin Yi lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in. As soon as he entered the tent, his eyes were attracted by a huge sand table.

The sand table clearly shows the terrain of the entire Middle East Grand Canyon, with mountains, rivers, and canyons.

There are also various chess pieces placed on the sand table, which are obviously used to represent different legions and forces.

"Doctor, long time no see." Crazy Grandma greeted Lin Yi.

As a core member of the God-Emperor Adventure Group, he is also qualified to follow the God-Emperor into the core layer of the camp.

However, before they could reminisce further, a chief of staff interrupted them hastily: "Ladies and gentlemen, we can talk about the past later."

At this time, Tuk Bourne finally raised his head and his eyes fell on Lin Yi.

The legion commander's eyes revealed a hint of appreciation: "Good, well done."

Tuk Bourne was obviously very satisfied with Lin Yi's performance on the battlefield.

This time, he only sent out the vanguard corps and successfully forced the Holy Dragon Legion to use their trump card.

This move also made the balance of victory begin to tilt towards them.

Although Tuk Bourne was full of confidence in the morale and combat effectiveness of the army, he was also well aware that arrogant soldiers would be defeated.

Therefore, he did not relax his vigilance, but instead prepared for the next battle more carefully.

In order to gather ideas, he specially summoned officers who had performed well on the battlefield, hoping to draw more advice and strategies from their experience and wisdom.

One person has limited skills, two people have greater skills.

He hopes to find the best battle plan through collective wisdom and minimize casualties among soldiers.

"I suggest that we reorganize the army right now, and while the enemy hasn't reacted yet, we should immediately send our troops forward and defeat them with all our strength." A chief of staff came up to Tuk Bourne and began to introduce his ideas on the sand table.

This suggestion immediately resonated with the surrounding staff, and many people expressed their agreement.

They analyzed that the Holy Dragon Kingdom was in a period of great chaos at the moment. The magic attack in the last war not only caused severe damage to the Lion Legion, but also dealt a heavy blow to the Holy Dragon Kingdom's own army.

More importantly, the war magic released by Kro Filin was mainly aimed at the soldiers attacking the foot of the fortress, and most of the magic attacks were actually blocked by the fortress of the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

This also caused extensive damage to the fortress of the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

The General Staff believed that this was an excellent opportunity to attack, and that this attack would definitely be easier than the last one.

Tuk Bourne listened to everyone's discussion and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

He knew that the suggestion was indeed feasible, but it also needed to be considered carefully.

After all, war is no joke, and one wrong step could lead to a complete loss.

"It sounds simple, but the actual situation is far more complicated than you think. It's not just the Holy Dragon Kingdom that needs to be prepared this time. Our soldiers also need time to regroup and recover after experiencing such a brutal battle." A general who had just returned from the battlefield said in a deep voice.

He interrupted the chief of staff's proposal and continued, "You have not personally experienced the battle in the Middle East Grand Canyon, so you can't imagine how tragic it was. It was like a meat grinder, and countless soldiers lost their lives there. Moreover, the war magic also dealt a huge blow to our morale. If we launch an attack at this time, the soldiers' combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, which is almost the same as sending them to their deaths."

The general's words were full of helplessness. Only those who have been to the battlefield know how horrible the psychological toll of war can have on soldiers.

His hands were still shaking, and it was obvious that he had not fully recovered from the battlefield.

"We must not give up. If we choose to retreat now, we will miss this crucial opportunity. Just imagine, if reinforcements from the Holy Dragon Kingdom arrive, how will we respond? We must remember that we were able to gain the upper hand this time entirely because the other party was caught off guard. If they have the opportunity to adjust their strategy and strengthen their defenses here, then our future battles will become extremely difficult." The chief of staff refuted the general's proposal without flinching. He knew very well that the general's concerns were not unreasonable, but opportunities for battle were rare and would slip away if one was not careful.

If you don't seize this opportunity, you may never come across such a godsend opportunity again.

Once the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Beasts controls the Middle East Grand Canyon, it can send troops at any time and pose a huge threat to the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

"But the problem is that the enemy is not a pushover. After our surprise attack, the Holy Dragon Kingdom must have strengthened the defenses of the fortress and deployed heavy troops. Our soldiers are already exhausted from the continuous battles. Attacking at this time is undoubtedly a weak against a strong. The enemy has a geographical advantage. If we act rashly and cause heavy casualties, they may even launch a counterattack against us. How should we respond then?"

As the topic deepened, the discussion atmosphere in the tent gradually heated up, and various voices intertwined together, as if a fierce debate competition was taking place.

Everyone is planning for the next strategy, hoping to find the best solution.

The chief of staff and the general each held their own opinions. The chief of staff emphasized the rarity of opportunities and the importance of strategy, while the general was concerned about the condition and morale of the soldiers.

Both sides have their own reasons and it is difficult to reach an agreement.

"That's enough. Be quiet." Tuk Bourne glanced at the people in front of him who were about to get into a conflict.

After hearing Tuk Bourne's order, everyone fell silent and the atmosphere instantly became solemn.

Everyone knows that no matter how intense the debate is, the final decision-making power and the right to speak are in the hands of this superior.

"Boy, you've been watching here for a long time, what are you thinking?"

Tuk Bourne's gaze turned to Lin Yi, who was sitting aside in deep thought. He noticed that while everyone was arguing, Lin Yi had been sitting quietly beside the sand table, fiddling with the soldier chess pieces in his hands, as if thinking about something.

Although Lin Yi was not a military expert and the chess pieces he manipulated seemed a little puzzling to Tuk Bourne, this aroused Tuk Bourne's curiosity.

So he interrupted the argument and wanted to hear the young man's opinion.

"Captain, I have a question I want to confirm. Will the other side deal with the bodies of the fallen soldiers after the battle?" Lin Yi asked.
