Chapter 1785

Zhao Chi 【Mm, I will too】

Gu Qing 【Understood. After the battle, I hope you'll have time to tell me about this kind of basic knowledge】

Zhao Chi 【It's all in the books, but... alright, I'll make time to explain it to all of you】

Gu Qing 【Hehe, good】

Although the two conversed a great deal, it was all through telepathic communication and happened in an instant.

As the army rapidly approached, they were about to cross the border of the fog.

At this distance, they could roughly confirm the number of enemies.

Each formation was indeed about 2,000 goblins, and the total was indeed about 30,000 goblins.

The initial estimate had been fairly accurate.

But Zhao Chi had actually been hoping the number would be smaller.

After all, that was 30,000!

The 30,000 seen in books and the 30,000 experienced by his former self were truly two completely different concepts.

There really were a lot of goblins!

But strangely, even though the enemy clearly stood higher and could see farther, even without strong eyesight they should have been able to see Zhao Chi's army approaching.

Yet only two goblin formations on the mountain had turned around; the other formations remained on the mountain without moving.

Looks like they're defending?

Are they waiting for him to attack first?

They can't be that cautious, can they?

No wonder he could become a goblin lord with 50,000 combat power — too steady.

Facing enemies with only 2,000 combat power, he still wouldn't take the initiative to attack.

It seems caution and steadiness really are the way to survive and thrive.

Zhao Chi was sighing with emotion when, the next second, the system sent a prompt:

【Enemy Lord Pang Hai is connecting to Battlefield 204】

【Requesting Reinforcements: Battlefield 204】

【Friendly: County-Level Lord: Yuan Li, Beastman Race, Combat Power 38,107】

【Friendly: County-Level Lord: Yuan Meng, Elf Race, Combat Power 27,093】

【Enemy: County-Level Lord: Bai Jiao, Elf Race, Combat Power 35,612】

Huh?

This?

No...

What the hell?

What's going on?

Zhao Chi looked at the system prompt, very surprised.

What is Pang Hai doing? He connected to another battlefield again?

Why?

Gu Qing 【My lord, what's wrong?】

Zhao Chi synced the situation to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing 【Is it because the enemy thinks our combat power is weak, so they don't care at all? That's why they went to support their teammate?】

Zhao Chi 【... Now that you say it, that does seem to be the case】

Gu Qing 【After all, we only have a little over 2,000 combat power on the surface, while the enemy has a full 50,000 combat power — they don't take us seriously at all. And looking at the lord Pang Hai is reinforcing, her name is Bai Jiao — she must absolutely be a female lord】

Zhao Chi 【No wonder they aren't attacking first. I thought it was caution, but turns out they're simply ignoring us and going to support some female lord. Damn it...】

Zhao Chi was truly a bit speechless.

How could something like this happen? If I'd known, I would have used the Sealing Realm to lock it down.

But he simply hadn't thought of it.

He had originally wanted to use this lord with 50,000 combat power to test his own combat power.

He hadn't expected the enemy to ignore him and go reinforce another Heavenly King Army female lord.

Battlefield 204 originally had 3 county-level lords fighting. The World-Breaking Army's two lords, Yuan Li and Yuan Meng, had a combined 65,200 combat power against the Heavenly King Army's Bai Jiao with 35,612 combat power — a solid advantage.

Now that Pang Hai had reinforced them, the Heavenly King Army's total combat power became 85,626, about 18,000 more than the World-Breaking Army, so now it was the Heavenly King Army that had the advantage.

Of course, only on the surface.

After all, Zhao Chi could also be seen as having 70,000 combat power.

Adding Zhao Chi's hidden combat power, the World-Breaking Army still had the advantage.

But the others didn't know that.

A huge sound came, and the fog wall of Pang Hai's territory shook, a massive gap appearing.

Immediately after.

Over a dozen goblin formations on the mountaintop quickly moved toward the gap, leaving only the 2 goblin formations on the mountainside in front slowly walking down.

So... those two formations were left to deal with Zhao Chi's army?

The enemy only left 4,000 goblins to deal with me?

Zhao Chi felt a bit annoyed.

Let alone 4,000 goblins, so what if it were 4,000 rabid corpses?

Wouldn't they still be easily wiped out?

But his this...

Zhao Chi sighed, unable to say anything.

Based on the estimate that the opponent's 30,000-plus goblins could reach 50,000 combat power, the 4,000 goblins left behind also had 6,666 combat power.

So the enemy left 6,666 combat-power goblins to deal with Zhao Chi, who had just over 2,000 combat power — already leaving three times the combat power in troops, which was already quite a show of regard for him.

But Zhao Chi was still a little sullen.

After all, with the addition of other allied forces, the original two battlefields had directly merged into one.

Zhao Chi passively gained two more teammates.

That meant fighting might be constrained.

Some of his abilities he didn't want others to know about, such as Tribe Summon and Silver Moon Transformation.

As for Giant Transformation, there was nothing to it — it belonged to spiritual techniques.

Spiritual techniques only required a skill book to master; even if Zhao Chi had one, it could be explained away by his being relatively lucky.

But Silver Moon Transformation and Tribe Summon would be very hard to explain.

Then... quick battle to force a swift resolution!

First rapidly overwhelm those 4,000 goblins, then pursue the remaining 26,000 goblins.

But if done this way, the battle with Pang Hai wouldn't count as a direct confrontation.

Even if he won, it wouldn't be a direct victory, and it wouldn't achieve Zhao Chi's goal of testing his own combat power.

Forget it, talk about it later.

First, deal with the enemies in front of him.

"All units, attention — charge up the mountain, overwhelm the enemy in one strike!"

"Yes!!"

The female soldiers no longer held back their speed; long legs stretched out, their pace rising once more.

Close to a thousand female soldiers leaped across the border, fully entering Pang Hai's territory.

However... barely ten-plus seconds in.

Zhao Chi received another new system message:
