Chapter 1336
And the torches Su Qin and the others were using were clearly ordinary torches, with only a 5-meter illumination range.
But it didn't matter, since the disparity in numbers was enormous.
Besides, there was also Geng Zhan for close combat.
Geng Zhan roared: "Raise shields, press forward. Be ready to engage the enemy at any moment!"
"Roar, yes sir!"
The orcs were naturally high in morale, and now with a clear advantage, their morale surged even higher; they all gripped their hammers, ready to smash down at any moment.
Xiang Yuan also gave an order: "Everyone spread out, cover both flanks!"
"Clack clack clack!"
Skeletons cannot speak.
But they answered Xiang Yuan with action.
On both the left and right sides of the formation, there were skeletons scattered everywhere.
If the Night Demons wanted to charge the formation, they first had to break through this skeleton horde.
Fu Yi turned his head and said: "Zhao Chi, no problem leaving the rear to you?"
Zhao Chi smiled: "Don't worry, the rear will be absolutely solid."
Fu Yi nodded: "Su Qin, I take the left, you take the right?"
Su Qin said: "Good!"
The two gave orders simultaneously, sending their respective close-combat soldiers to the left and right flanks.
Although the number of skeletons was large, the combat ability of each individual was too weak.
They could swarm and kill the Night Demons, but the losses would be great; they still needed Fu Yi and Su Qin's close-combat soldiers to help, reducing Xiang Yuan's losses while also accumulating contribution points for the two of them.
Zhao Chi did not have night vision.
But his Intelligence was now 10 points, and his Perception was extremely strong.
Relying purely on perception, and borrowing Su Qin's torchlight, he could also see very far.
However, Gu Qing was right beside him.
Gu Qing said softly: "My lord, about 200 Night Demons have circled around to the rear; they're now roughly 100 meters from us, and it looks like they're looking for a chance to attack."
Zhao Chi nodded: "Understood, I'm leaving combat command to you."
"Yes, my lord!"
Suddenly, Zhao Chi felt a jolt of dread in his heart.
An inexplicable chill ran through his entire body.
In the darkness behind, some purple light seemed to surface, flashing once and vanishing.
Several hundred female soldiers were struck by the purple light.
But they all looked somewhat bewildered, because they felt nothing at all.
Only dozens of elves behind them let out some frightened soft cries.
Immediately after, black shadows charged forward one after another.
Zhao Chi's heart clenched suddenly, and he nearly cried out.
But a gentle light rose from Gu Qing's body, spreading to cover Zhao Chi and the elves in front.
"My lord, those Night Demons are using Fear Spell; you were just affected by it."
Zhao Chi nodded.
That feeling of dread from moments ago had vanished.
Looking at those black shadows now, he felt absolutely nothing at all.
If they dared to charge in, they would absolutely become souls claimed by the female soldiers' blades.
Zhao Chi roared: "Su Qin, they're using Fear Spell, warn everyone to be careful."
Su Qin's voice came from the front: "Don't worry, Zhao Chi, everyone's being dispelled."
Within the formation, between the orange-yellow torchlight, streaks of purple light appeared.
The light rapidly shot into the soldiers' bodies.
Apart from Zhao Chi's female soldiers and the skeletons, the eyes of everyone else showed more or less some panic.
But very quickly, patches of yellow light beams appeared throughout the formation.
As those lights descended, the Fear Spell was immediately dispelled.
