Chapter 2371

A werewolf lord of this level has top-tier strength and skills.

But still couldn't hold.

The enemy had once again ordered a retreat.

Even though the skeletons and beastmen fear no death at this moment, as the opposing lord, he couldn't let them throw their lives away for nothing.

If they need to retreat, they definitely must retreat.

Ren Yunchuan himself is also an archer.

He was shooting from the defense tower on the front line, having the time of his life.

His shots were fierce.

But at the same time, he was very calm.

He knew that although the werewolves were at a disadvantage now, it wasn't a defeat—their strength remained, especially their melee combat power was still extremely strong.

Don't look at how the werewolves keep retreating now; the main werewolf forces in the rear are all still lying in wait, waiting for an opportunity.

Once the enemy seized an opportunity, the tide of battle would rapidly reverse.

So his offense was sharp, but his movements were steady.

All his actions revolved around the defense tower—fighting fiercely, yet not daring to advance rashly.

After all, he was the captain-general…

Not many people could come to support on this kind of battlefield.

The other captains who could provide support were all locked in bitter fighting.

So if he made a single mistake in action, it would be irrecoverable.

After all, these elven bows had only been issued to them a single day ago—there was simply no time for actual combat, only a brief bit of practice.

And what surprised him most was that these elven bows had never been registered, possessing very high hidden combat stats, which in turn hid a considerable amount of his own combat power.

So the werewolves hadn't anticipated Ren Yunchuan's volley of shots being so fierce.

After several rounds of shooting.

Ren Yunchuan had quickly come to recognize the true power of these elven bows—after all, just looking at the stats versus actual combat still had an essential gap.

Relying on his years of combat experience, he rapidly grasped the new distribution of combat power in battle, catching the werewolves off guard, making them take a major loss, and thus retreat in defeat after defeat.

The situation looked excellent.

But the more it was like this, the more cautious he had to be.

He was facing a werewolf with 7 million combat power with his own 5.31 million—the pressure was immense.

Although the current battle damage was quite good, after all the enemy's combat power still had over 5.5 million, 1 million more than his current 4.5 million.

This gap was still very large.

So… pursue or not?

If they pursued, there were no more defense towers ahead—the elves would have to leave the tower to chase.

Although he was very confident in the elves' movement speed, but… what if?

The other side was also a state-level lord—who knew what special skills they might have.

What if they could let the werewolves instantly close the distance? These elves would be done for.

But if they didn't pursue…

It really would be a bit of a pity.

After all, the World-Breaking Army as a whole was currently at a disadvantage; it was the World-Breaking Army that wanted a quick decisive victory.

If it dragged on, werewolves who finished their battles would definitely come to reinforce, and at that point it would be hard to fight.

Moreover, the enemy's morale had been suppressed right now—this was precisely the best time to pursue.

If they waited and dragged things out, the enemy's morale would rise again.

Pursue or not?

Ren Yunchuan was very conflicted.

His several subordinates also held differing opinions, each sticking to their own view.

Pursuing carried risks.

Not pursuing meant missing a golden opportunity, and enemy reinforcements might arrive very soon.

How to decide?

Just at this moment, Ren Yunchuan suddenly received a system message.

He immediately opened it.

When he saw the two words "reinforcements," his heart really tightened—he was genuinely startled.

He hadn't thought at all in the direction of his own side's reinforcements.

His subconscious reaction was that it were werewolf reinforcements.

The werewolves' reinforcements had arrived this quickly?

No way?

But when he saw clearly that it was actually his own people coming to support, joy shot straight up to the crown of his head, nearly lifting his helmet off.

It was truly an unexpected great joy.

And the ones coming were Li Ruanyu and Shangguan Ting, these two sharp women.

He was even more overjoyed.

Of course he knew them both.

Between the level of squadron captain and captain-general, they actually all had years of friendship.

Even if some lords competed fiercely with each other, or had some past grudges, they were basically all acquainted.

What's more, there's Li Ruanyu and Shangguan Ting—those two female squad leaders whose names are known far and wide.

And on top of that.

Their combat strength is all that high.

Temporary Update Adjustment

Hello friends, as I mentioned before, I'll be heading back to my hometown for National Day.

Starting tomorrow, I'll be updating one chapter of 5,000 characters every day.

I'll resume the normal schedule right after National Day ends—should be the 8th.

After National Day, normally all the way up to Spring Festival it'll be 2 updates of 10,000 characters, unless there are special circumstances that reduce the word count a bit—the number of times definitely won't be many, but I definitely won't stop updating either.

Wishing everyone a happy National Day!

Get rich! Live long!
