Chapter 1257: Chapter 435: Calm Withdrawal, the Undefeated Ground

“Kill! Flatten the crystal!”

“Take down this man, and we’ll be number one!”

The warriors were once again filled with adrenaline!

Each frantically charged forward!

Even though they couldn’t withstand a single strike from an Ascalon Soldier, they still faced death fearlessly!

However, in the face of absolute power, courage alone was not enough.

The warriors swung their blades without the slightest delay, continuously striking.

A large number of survivors and their combat personnel were knocked down.

Meanwhile, Cao Xing was fully prepared.

At the same time.

The armies from three directions had already begun to surge forward, nearing the battlefield.

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing quickly issued an order.

“All combat personnel, retreat.”

“Let the Branded Monsters handle the first wave of impact.”

The warriors followed the order immediately, sheathing their weapons and retreating to the rear.

While the army of survivors hadn’t yet arrived, a flood of dazzling magic spells had already begun to rain down.

Landing on the heads of the Branded Monsters, they triggered damage in the hundreds, even the thousands.

Though the damage wasn’t high, the sheer number of them was terrifying.

Almost instantly upon contact, dozens or even hundreds of damage points appeared on the forefront of the Branded Monsters.

A large number of Minotaurs were instantly obliterated, turning into a field of crystal fragments.

Seeing this, the brown-haired man’s confidence soared!

“Brothers, the Branded Monsters can no longer stop us.”

“Taking down Cao Xing is right before our eyes.”

“Keep pushing forward!”

Rumble!

The sound of countless footsteps and charging cries intertwined, making one feel like they were surrounded by an endless ocean wave!

Near this Giant Dragon Crystal, there were originally nearly three hundred thousand people.

After Cao Xing took out approximately forty thousand, there were still two hundred and sixty thousand left.

When another three groups, totaling three hundred thousand, arrived, the survivor army here exceeded six hundred thousand!

Perhaps just a number doesn’t provide a direct feeling.

But if you were to experience the scene yourself, you’d see an overwhelming sea of people on all sides, like tides stretching endlessly.

Blades and swords flashed coldly, magical glows appeared suddenly!

The encirclement formed by so many people was like a huge vortex, completely enveloping the Giant Dragon Crystal where Cao Xing stood, leaving him no room to escape.

Even the Dragon Speaker had, after her skills went on cooldown, flown her dragon into the air to temporarily avoid the edge.

Though she was a heroic-level powerhouse, she wasn’t foolish.

This group of survivors had clearly split off fifty thousand ranged forces specifically to deal with her.

However, while they could target the Dragon Speaker, they couldn’t target the other powerhouses under Cao Xing!

At this moment, Witch Francisca, and Renice, Eliza, riding on Griffins, were relentlessly attacking from above.

On the ground.

Assam and Bojie, along with other melee powerhouses, continuously launched terrifying attacks, instantly killing large numbers of survivors on the spot.

The greatest threat to those ranged units came from the two assassins — Sarah and Heli!

No one knew when, but they had joined forces with the Branded Scorpion army, sneaking behind the survivor’s army, reaching the back of the ranged units.

Amid the chaos of the scorpion army’s raid.

Sarah and Heli began their massacre!

Shattering Shadow!

Slaughter Chaotic Dance!

Shadow Phantom Slash!

Group attack skills were unleashed one after another.

Wherever they passed, corpses lay sprawled everywhere!

Under the slaughter of these powerhouses, Cao Xing’s points were increasing at a terrifying speed.

In the blink of an eye, it surged from the original 370,000 to 380,000, 390,000!

It even began to sprint towards 400,000!

Cao Xing also did his best to use the Branded Monsters to hold back the advancement of the survivor army, buying time for his warriors to kill the enemy.

The battle was intensely fierce at this moment.

The lords of the Wind Camp were almost reckless, charging with their warriors!

Every second, numerous Branded Monsters perished, and many survivors died as well.

Within less than three minutes of the battle’s start, over ten thousand Branded Monsters on the outskirts were eliminated.

Cao Xing also analyzed the situation swiftly.

“The survivors’ advancing speed is fast. It won’t be long before they finish off the remaining tens of thousands of Branded Monsters I have.”

“However, I can still hold on for a while.”

“It looks like, just from this Crystal Stronghold, I can earn nearly one hundred thousand points.”

This number was astonishing.

According to his previous pace, it would take at least two or three strongholds combined to earn so many points.

So for him, dealing with an army of six hundred thousand was dangerous but highly rewarding.

Cao Xing concentrated all his attention, maneuvering the Branded Monster army to block the survivors.

However, his strength alone had its limits.

After almost ten minutes of holding, the Branded Monster army was overturned one after another.

Many lines of defense were breached.

This was inevitable, given the overwhelming difference in numbers.

Moreover, the survivors possessed a variety of tactics.

Relying on himself alone, he was unable to manage the entire battlefield.

The breached lines could only be temporarily covered by other warriors.

After another fifteen minutes of stalemate.

Nearly a hundred warriors on Cao Xing’s side had perished.

The ten thousand-strong Branded Monster army had been reduced to the last twenty thousand.

Similarly, the united survivor army endured over a hundred thousand casualties.

Seeing Cao Xing gradually consolidate the battle line, retreating towards the center of the crystal!
