Lear snapped back to focus, his gaze fixed on the Great Demon.
"How many Dark Night Elves are there?"
"At least a thousand!"
The Great Demon spoke with a touch of greed, his amber eyes full of yearning.
Fresh souls make for fine food.
And the souls of Dark Night Elves are particularly delicious.
Lear turned his head to look.
In front of him was an area full of tall wild grass.
Large patches of deep green intertwined with hints of yellowish vines.
It was completely untouched territory.
The leader of the Dark Night Elves—Isa, was now riding her Swamp Giant Horned Deer to Lear's side, speaking in a deep voice.
"Sir, I smell the scent of the Holy Song Clan... They must have discovered our escape route."
She remembered the scent of those foes clearer than anyone.
Lear nodded.
"That's right, the underground passage you took to reach the earth surface has been discovered by the Holy Song Clan... They've dispatched thousands of their tribe to the surface."
"They even plan to establish a foundation here for plundering wealth and resources."
"What are your thoughts?"
A thousand people?
Isa's eyes showed a hint of contemplation, then glanced at her companions behind her.
"Sir, we must not let them grow... The Holy Song Clan is watched by the Dark Night Elf God, if they develop, we'll be in a very passive position, and might even attract the attention of the Dark Night Elf God."
They didn't believe in any divine spirit, even if it was the Dark Night Elf God!
Life in the Underworld put self before anything.
"We can first crush them, then enslave and conquer part of them, bringing them under your command!"
This mere hundred people were too few; as Weilu City grew larger, the already weak Dark Night Elves were becoming more overlooked.
If more squads could be added, she believed the current status would be completely different.
A well-structured ranged soldier unit would definitely be more than just a show!
Lear nodded noncommittally.
After pondering for a moment, he looked toward the Wetland Lizard-man Hero.
"Haggs, lead the charge and crush those Dark Night Elves."
"Deserted Tomb Guard, join the battle."
"Isa, lead the Dark Night Elves to cooperate."
"Defeat them first, then discuss prisoners."
War has never been about mercy, thinking about capturing the enemy before victory is premature.
Besides, they believed in the Dark Night Elf God.
Who knows if they have something hidden?
In this ancient and deep-rooted world, anything could happen.
Lear's gaze shifted to the Swamp Boggarts in the rear.
These 3 already full-level Boggarts were also a force not to be underestimated.
"You too, join the battle. Use your songs to confuse their minds and reduce their resistance... Once the Dark Night Elves retreat, intensify your efforts, leave none behind!"
His will was above all.
A series of orders were given, and the army began to move immediately.
Clip-clop~ Clip-clop~
A series of dull sounds slowly echoed, the earth began to tremble.
Cold-blooded Cavalry charged ahead, crushing the thick and lush grass with an overbearing stance.
Seven squadrons of heavy cavalry charged simultaneously; from the sky, it looked like a torrent of steel.
No obstacle could stop these terrifying heavy armor warriors.
Lear's cloak flickered slightly as he rose into the air, hovering a hundred meters above, looking down.
Seeing this scene, his heart swelled with emotion.
No matter how many times, watching these heavy cavalry he forged himself attack always gave him strong satisfaction.
At the edge of sight, his pupils reflected the countless Dark Night Elves, realizing the anomaly now.
At once, they formed highly disciplined ranks, raising their Hardwood Longbows skyward.
Bang~
The bowstrings snapped.
Over a thousand dark arrows flew up like raindrops.
Arrow feathers stabilized behind, reaching the highest point before drawing a parabolic line in the air, falling down.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~~
The charging Cold-blooded Cavalry was instantly covered by piercing arrows.
Clang clang clang~
A burst of metal clashing erupted.
But those arrows, which could easily pierce rocks, were deflected and even snapped.
The terrifying cavalry army was unaffected!
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Second round, third round, fourth round... Lear also felt the exaggeration of the Dark Night Elves.
Rapid bow-drawing, within a few breaths, they shot nine rounds of arrows.
If ordinary infantry were to attack, they would have long been made into sieves.
The ground was covered with arrow shafts, swaying continuously...
But, they were facing Cold-blooded Cavalry, equipped with full body armor forged by Fray people!!
The strongest legendary soldier among the Lizard-men!
The terrifying momentum was like a mountain reservoir opening its floodgates.
Sweeping directly across the earth, spraying water mist and mud everywhere.
Rumble~ Rumble~
Crushing through the grass with absolute posture, the Dark Night Elf military formation was already within reach!
The high-value subterranean life forms finally showed fear in their eyes at this moment.
The leader in the rear frantically roared orders.
The front-line Dark Night Elves frantically pulled their longbows.
Arrows shot toward the eyes, throat, and heart of the Cold-blooded Cavalry.
But it was useless; no matter how they erupted, they couldn't penetrate the 3 Stars level Rock Heavy Armor.
Only faint scratches and cracks could be seen on it.
