Lin Ye saw this army, and felt nothing in his heart.

The total number was nearly a thousand, and among them were many mid- to high-level soldier types. From the perspective of other players, this person's army, at the current game progress, was already an invincible existence.

"Is this another pay-to-win player?" Lin Ye muttered.

In less than an hour since the game started, gathering an army of this scale was impossible with just the initial experience value and monster grinding.

Unless, he gambled everything.

And evidently, this person had indeed gambled his ancestor's relic to win this game.

In normal circumstances, such a player would easily sweep through battles.

But unfortunately, his luck was truly bad as he had encountered Lin Ye.

You could say Lin Ye's presence destined that, in this game, almost no one else had a chance of winning.

Lin Ye excitedly commanded his troops to charge toward that player!

An army of this scale was at least good enough for a warm-up for his troops.

...

In the distance, a rather handsome young man rode on a tall horse, leading his army as they traversed the forest.

"We must find Lin Ye quickly, and we absolutely cannot let him develop further."

He muttered impatiently.

He knew he had spent a lot of effort convincing his grandfather to dig up a certain ancestor's grave to obtain this extraordinarily precious relic.

A level 50 relic was already a very rare treasure.

Unfortunately, those level 70 or 80 powerhouses from their ancestry didn't leave any relics.

Originally, he thought he could dominate the game with this relic in hand.

But he didn't expect to encounter Lin Ye.

He was fully confident he could win in the game, but now he only had a fifty percent chance.

Because he didn't know if Lin Ye had a relic.

If he did, then he knew clearly he had no chance of winning…

If Lin Ye didn't have a relic, then as long as he found Lin Ye quickly and defeated him before his army grew strong, he could still win.

After all, in this game, players themselves were not allowed to fight.

So, even with Lin Ye's numerous tactics, without a relic and time to develop his troops, it was simply unrealistic to defeat an army of over a thousand.

The key was whether Lin Ye had a relic.

This was why his chance of winning was only fifty percent…

To find Lin Ye's whereabouts quickly, he even spent a large amount of resources to trade for a Gale Falcon, which had no combat ability and could only be used for reconnaissance.

This was equivalent to the price of an intermediate-level soldier type.

But at this moment, he suddenly looked up at the sky with a shocked expression on his face.

Just now, he had lost contact with his Gale Falcon!

"What's going on? This is impossible!"

He was a bit flustered, knowing someone outside the reconnaissance range of the Gale Falcon had shot it down!

If that was the case, it meant the opponent probably had an advanced long-range soldier type!

Because only soldiers of that level possessed such range!

Normal intermediate long-range soldiers couldn't reach the heights of a Gale Falcon, let alone shoot it down from outside its effective reconnaissance range.

Now, he found himself in a dilemma without any reconnaissance position.

"Damn… Which spendthrift could I have encountered?" He couldn't make sense of anyone playing like this.

Advanced soldier types, strictly speaking, had a really low cost-effectiveness ratio.

Unless they formed a certain scale, they couldn't compare to a well-coordinated mix of low to intermediate soldier types in terms of overall combat power.

He was quite unsure.

Should he confront them or retreat immediately?

After much consideration, he finally decided to hold his position and brace for defense!

Since he didn't know which way to run, if he bumped into the enemy head-on, he could at least prepare slightly.

But if the enemy chased him from behind, it would be embarrassing then.

The most crucial thing was that the opponent might have already fully tracked his movements.

The fact they casually shot down his reconnaissance Gale Falcon was enough to show their reconnaissance range was far superior to his.

Because he wasn't even aware there was an enemy around.

Since he didn't know where to escape and might already be in the opponent's view, it was better to fortify his position and prepare for a tough battle!

He didn't believe the army he acquired by sacrificing his ancestor would be so worthless!

Even if the opposing side wanted to take him down, he'd make sure to bite back fiercely.

Or else, wouldn't the ancestral grave have been dug up for nothing?

Also, if the opponent turned out to be a paper tiger, seeing his determined stance, they might not dare to attack.

"Everyone halt, maintain vigilance!"

With no better option, he halted and prepared for a fight to the death.

...

"Not bad, he's got some guts."

From afar, Lin Ye noticed the opponent did not flee in panic but chose to stand his ground and fight, causing Lin Ye to view him in a new light.

This judgment of the situation was quite accurate.

Rather than being pursued during a retreat, it's better to confront the enemy head-on!

Such an opponent deserved Lin Ye's full effort.

"Full army advance, completely crush the target, leave no survivors!" Lin Ye commanded.

...

In the distance, the person stood ready and alert.

If he guessed correctly, the opponent should be arriving soon.

Of course, he hoped the person wouldn't appear!

He knew his movements were entirely monitored by the opponent…

In such a situation, if the opponent dared to come, they must be confident.

Otherwise, they wouldn't show up.

So his biggest wish was for the opponent to back off.

But his hope was destined to be dashed.

His horse, sensing something, shook its head restlessly.

A far-off rumbling sound left him dazed…

That noise, wasn't it too loud?

He finally saw from afar a group of heavy-armored Earth Dragon Knights charging at him.

In the sky, a group of Flying Dragons swooped down.

"Gulp…" He swallowed hard.

This setup…

How many ancestors did the person across sacrifice?
