Chapter 244: Chapter 203: Two-headed Giant Mage Leader, Evil Array; The Spectacle of a Large Magic Plane
After learning the composition of the enemy’s seven-thousand-strong Dogman Corps,
The Elf Druid, soaring in Giant Eagle form high above the Divine Realm, turned its gaze further back toward the three-thousand-strong Giant Demon Corps!
Unlike the Dogman Corps, which was being used as cannon fodder to pin down the main army,
the force Hu Jinxin truly considered his main army,
was precisely this legion of three thousand well-equipped and ferocious Giant Demon Warriors!
Compared to the Elf Warriors, who stood 1.8 to nearly 2 meters tall,
the warriors of the Giant Demon Clan were generally over three meters tall.
Individual, exceptionally powerful Giant Demon Warriors could even exceed four meters in height!
Based on their green skin, these Giant Demons could be identified as Forest Giants, a subspecies of the Giant Demon race.
Moreover, these Giant Demons were not as the Elves had imagined—unarmed and wielding wooden or stone weapons.
They carried standard-issue giant Wolf Fang Clubs, massive War Axes that glinted with a cold metallic light, and Heavy Hammers.
They wore Metal Plate Armor forged from massive sheets of metal, combined with Vine Armor.
All this made this Forest Giant legion look extremely formidable!
Within this three-thousand-strong Giant Demon Corps,
aside from the nearly two thousand Giant Demon Warriors located in the center,
there was also a separate, smaller Giant Demon corps in the rear.
This smaller corps numbered nearly eight hundred. Their figures were relatively "short,"
but they still appeared quite tall compared to the warriors of the Elf Clan.
And based on the Totem Poles they held, as well as their strange weapons and adornments,
the records on Magical Creatures in the Magic Library suggested these were likely special Professions within the Giant Demon clan:
Giant Witch Doctors or Giant Shamans!
And what truly made the Elf Druid in Giant Eagle form shift its gaze here,
besides the piles of bones strewn about at the feet of these Giant Witch Doctors and Giant Shamans, and the countless Kobold slaves who were being bled,
was that these Giant Shamans were holding Bone Staffs and using the bled Kobold slaves, as well as the bones on the ground, to inscribe a Magic Array.
This highly abnormal scene
instantly captured the Elf Druid’s attention. It marked the area as a high priority and transmitted the scene down below via a spell.
In the very center of the Giant Demon Corps, a towering figure stood, surrounded by guards.
By the looks of it, this had to be the leader of this group of Giant Demons!
The Bone Staff in the Giant Demon Leader’s hands was currently emitting a dense Bloody Energy.
Its two heads and four eyes continuously scanned the surrounding Giant Demon Warriors.
A blood-red sigil extended from the array being created by the Giant Shamans in the rear, connecting to the Giant Demon Leader and seemingly applying some kind of evil blessing or Frenzy Spell!
At the Giant Demon Leader’s feet, a blood-red halo of light was continuously expanding,
causing the auras of the surrounding Giant Demons to grow more frenzied and unstable, as if they could descend into a murderous rage at any moment!
This feeling was very similar to the state brought about by the Dwarf Leader, Copperbeard Ironhammer, after activating his Frenzy Aura.
Seeing that the enemy had prepared such a well-equipped army,
it was no wonder Hu Jinxin had the confidence to challenge Zhang Yi!
The Elf Messenger who recorded this scene via a Visual Sharing Spell hurriedly relayed the information to Elf Legion Commander Feiyana.
"Legion Commander, the enemy’s main force consists of two thousand well-equipped Giant Demon Warriors who are suspected to be under the influence of a Frenzy Spell.
Their core is a Two-headed Giant Mage Leader.
On the flanks are about eight hundred Giant Witch Doctor and Giant Shaman units. From the looks of it, they seem to be creating some kind of large-scale Evil Array!"
As he said this,
recalling the sight of the Giant Shamans creating the array from blood and bone,
an expression of disgust involuntarily appeared on the Elf Messenger’s face!
While the Elves love Nature, they aren’t zealots about it.
However, the enemy Giant Shamans’ use of such bloody and violent methods to construct their array was an absolute affront to the Elf Clan!
"Besides the three-thousand-strong and highly threatening Giant Demon Corps,
the Dogman Corps also includes two thousand winged units carrying an unknown liquid.
There is also a phalanx of one thousand Dogman Mages, threat level high..."
After finishing his report, the Elf Messenger withdrew,
leaving Elf Legion Commander Feiyana alone with her thoughts.
Of all the battles Elf Legion Commander Feiyana had led her corps in within the Divine Realm, this was, on the surface, the most challenging one yet!
The ordinary Dogman Corps on the other side would be easy to deal with;
on this point, Elf Legion Commander Feiyana had no doubt in the abilities she had honed over countless battles.
But the enemy’s special troops—the winged Kobolds and the three thousand Forest Giants—
were far more troublesome!
’In a head-on confrontation, the front-line Elf Soldiers will suffer heavy casualties,’ she thought.
’But the great God of Nature has ordered us
to display our might in a direct confrontation, all while preserving our forces.’
’This will be a true test of my strategic arrangements!’
While Elf Legion Commander Feiyana was deep in thought,
the commanders of the other branch legions within the corps also received the news.
It sounded as if the opposing Clan Corps was in no way weaker than the Elf Clan under Zhang Yi.
But on closer thought,
’While this battle contains immense danger, the rewards are also enormous!’
The small-scale arena duels during the provincial exams had never been enough to satisfy Zhang Yi’s vast ambitions.
