Chapter 2393

~6 min read 1,138 words

The transfer speed is extremely fast.

If used well, the tactics become very flexible, able to strike the enemy so they're pulled in every direction, watching the front while neglecting the rear.

There's a lot of room for strategic and tactical use.

But it demands a higher level of skill from the lord.

In the hands of a powerful lord, bat-men, harpies, even goblins and skeletons can truly create harassment everywhere, enemy troops everywhere, drowning the opponent in a sea of soldiers, running them ragged until they die in despair.

But when a low-level lord uses them, it's like delivering food, letting the opponent happily and easily devour them all.

Regardless, every race has its strengths and weaknesses.

Used well, they're very strong.

Unfortunately, griffins and manticores are the natural counters of harpies.

They can also fly, and although their agility is relatively slightly worse, they fly faster, are stronger, and are strong on an entirely different level.

There's no way around that.

Of course, correspondingly, the bone dragon is the counter to griffins and manticores.

Or rather, the bone dragon is the counter to most flying races.

So this time, a single bone dragon produced the shocking record of 3,566 bat-men and 593 manticores killed.

Of course, this is also related to Zhao Chi consuming a massive amount of spiritual power to heavily strengthen this bone dragon.

An ordinary bone dragon truly couldn't be this powerful, couldn't possibly slaughter so many soldiers right in front of two state-level lords.

But regardless.

Zhao Chi is very satisfied with this result.

A lot of experience.

3,566 bat-men actually give average experience — more than killing goblins for sure, but far less than killing werewolves.

The main experience still came from those 593 manticores; being able to kill so many manticores is really lucky.

After all, manticores are actually very strong.

Moreover, the opponent was a state-level lord with plenty of heroes and skills; under normal circumstances, a bone dragon basically couldn't kill this many.

It was mainly thanks to Zhao Chi's skills.

Greatly increased the bone dragon's movement speed.

And the terrain adaptability also works in the air, making this bone dragon's flight capability even stronger.

Such a massive bone dragon actually produced a blitz effect.

Relying on the huge life bonus, it tanked the manticore group's stinger volley head-on and charged straight in.

Directly smashed huge numbers of manticores to death.

Its two wings, like enormous blades, also sliced down plenty of manticores.

And the continuously emitted high-concentration purple mist also killed swathes of manticores in the opening phase.

Later, using bone spears, it also instantly killed large numbers of manticores.

The increased evasion also let the bone dragon forcibly dodge a huge amount of manticore stinger shots.

Besides that.

The ultra-high morale, massive critical hit and fatal strike bonuses, huge attack boost, and so on, made this bone dragon practically an evolved form.

Even a state-level lord couldn't withstand this sudden charge, suffering enormous losses.

Later the bone dragon charged into the bat-men crowd, an even more inhumane mass slaughter.

Over 3,500 bat-men wiped out in a short time — absolutely tragic.

Zhao Chi didn't see the specific process, but guessed most of them were probably suffocated by that withering purple mist.

Besides that.

Zhao Chi's impression was that only 3 enemy heroes were killed, but the settlement info actually showed 9.

Where did the remaining 6 come from?

If Zhao Chi's side didn't kill them, then they were probably taken out by the bone dragon.

That's not bad.

Adding in Zhao Chi, Tang Ruan, and Qi Yue's earlier battle, across the two battles Zhao Chi's side killed a total of 5,602 enemies.

And the contribution was 2.7%.

Looks small, but it's actually quite a lot.

After all, this mere 2.7% contribution actually yielded nearly 8 million experience.

This is simply heaven-defying.

Working backward, the total battlefield experience is nearly 300 million!

300 million!

Way too strong.

This 300 million figure has a large margin of error.

Because you can't directly extrapolate from Zhao Chi's data — it's not very precise.

But it can serve as a reference.

At least the order of magnitude is correct.

And this 300 million isn't all obtained by lords like Li Ruanyu and Shangguan Ting; it's distributed among them and those 390,000 soldiers according to contribution.

On average, each person only gets 769 experience — really not much.

But you definitely can't calculate it directly like that.

Some soldiers certainly got a lot, some got very little or even nothing.

Heroes definitely gain more experience than soldiers.

Heroes have talents, skills, and hero attributes, all of which have a sustained impact on combat.

And lords generally gain even more experience than heroes.

Li Ruanyu and the others must have gotten plenty of experience too.

The three of them—Zhao Chi's group—being able to gain close to 8 million experience is already quite impressive.

Actually, based on kill count alone, Zhao Chi shouldn't have gotten such a large share of the experience.

After all, the enemy's total losses were 380,000.

If we go purely by numbers, Zhao Chi's kill count only accounts for 1.47%.

The remaining 1.23% should be because Zhao Chi provided skill buffs to Li Ruanyu, Shangguan Ting, and the others, including their soldiers, so a fair amount of support contribution was counted.

Otherwise it couldn't possibly be this high.

The data certainly isn't precise.

But the reasoning holds.

This battle's difficulty was only ordinary.

Although once Li Ruanyu and the others joined the battlefield later, troop numbers were already in their favor, in the early phase the enemy's troop numbers held the advantage throughout.

So for the World Breakers in the early phase it was hard mode, and for the werewolves in the later phase it was hard mode—overall it averages out to ordinary difficulty.

However.

Although the difficulty was ordinary, the battle performance was once again dreamlike.

Battle difficulty is calculated from the data of the entire battlefield.

Battle performance, however, targets only each faction's own performance.

So this dreamlike performance was only obtained on Zhao Chi's side.

Zhao Chi, Tang Ruan, and Qi Yue's performance should naturally be dreamlike.

There's absolutely no question about that.

This brings an additional experience bonus.

But the other allied forces couldn't possibly have dreamlike performance.

So the earlier mention of other allied forces having close to 300 million experience was just back-calculated from Zhao Chi's data, with a fairly large margin of error.

But Zhao Chi doesn't know their data, so he can only estimate this way—getting a rough figure is fine, but over 200 million experience is certainly there.

Finally, the battle result.

An epic war.

That's only natural.

A battle of nearly a million people—purely in terms of scale alone, there's a high probability of it being an epic battle.
