Chapter 880

~6 min read 1,181 words

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

The Moonlight Blade Formation slammed into the spear formation.

The silver light exploded in an instant.

The wailing of metal was everywhere.

The spears in the air shattered into pieces, becoming lengths of scrap iron that fell deep into the mud.

The spear formation vanished.

The Moonlight Formation remained.

The beastfolk only saw a flash of white light.

A few screams rang out for only an instant before vanishing.

Blood and chunks of flesh flew out in all directions.

The beastfolk could no longer be seen.

No… it would be more accurate to say no standing beastfolk could be seen.

The beastfolk line was a scene of utter devastation.

The sand and dirt that had flown into the air fell back down one after another.

It was very choking.

The air was full of rising dust.

The beastfolk formation of 415 people had completely collapsed.

The middle section had vanished entirely, leaving only wet mud mixed with blood and flesh.

Enormous blade scars were left on the ground.

The blood from the chunks of flesh flowed into the blade scars, but was quickly absorbed by the surrounding dirt, turning into dark red wet earth.

The beastfolk on both flanks of the formation were still alive.

They all lay prone in the loose soil, shields held over their heads, not daring to move a muscle.

A few Tier-3 beastfolk in the middle were still alive. They had originally wanted to flee, but upon seeing the enormous Qi Yue, they didn't dare run.

Huang Bian's skill softened the surrounding earth indiscriminately, limiting the female soldiers' movement speed, and likewise limiting the beastfolk's movement speed.

The beastfolk race was never particularly agile to begin with, and now escape was even more impossible.

But most importantly, their gallbladders had already burst from terror.

They had completely lost the courage to flee.

One by one, they stared at Qi Yue and trembled.

Qi Yue held her three hands high in the air.

Even she herself hadn't expected this level of destructive power.

After all, half of those Moon Blade slashes earlier had been meant to cut through the spears in the sky.

Only the other half had been aimed at the beastfolk.

She hadn't expected to completely rout the enemy outright.

Creak!

Creak!

Qi Yue's footsteps made sounds in the soft earth like footsteps in snow.

With every step she took, the beastfolk would tremble.

Qi Yue quickly walked into the remnants of the beastfolk formation.

The beastfolk didn't even dare make a sound, silently placing their shields in front of them.

Quite a few were injured, and could only grit their teeth in agony and tremble.

Qi Yue did not continue her attack.

There was no need.

They had already won.

These beastfolk were all Zhao Chi's captives and could be sold for money.

Qi Yue certainly wouldn't let Zhao Chi suffer a loss.

Moreover, she only needed to stand right here, like a guardian mountain spirit of the nation, to completely intimidate these beastfolk remnants.

The sturdy beastfolk crouched on the ground, lying in the dirt, having lost all will to fight.

They no longer looked like fierce beastfolk now, but more like cowardly goblins.

Soon, Zhao Chi and the female soldiers had all gathered around.

In truth, even they were extremely shocked.

Before seeing it in person, it was impossible to imagine what a person 2.8 meters tall looked like.

For Zhao Chi, this was his second time seeing it, but he still felt deeply awed.

The first time, he had seen the enormous, naked Gu Qing.

But now he was seeing the fully armed, four-armed Qi Yue.

She truly looked like a female war god.

The female soldiers quickly removed the ropes from their waists and bound the beastfolk tightly.

Gu Qing only needed to spray out a little silk thread to ensure the ropes wouldn't loosen and couldn't be untied.

Those injured beastfolk were also all healed by her.

The battle was over.

Zhao Chi let out a breath of relief: "Qi Yue, well done. I had originally thought it would take a round of killing, but I didn't expect you alone could handle it."

Qi Yue lowered her head and smiled softly: "It's not all my credit—Tang Ruan also helped draw a lot of their fire."

Tang Ruan waved a hand: "It doesn't have much to do with me. Without me, you alone could have routed them just as well."

Gu Qing looked at the orc captives covering the ground and sighed: "I didn't expect them to be this fragile. They clearly still had over three hundred left, yet they already didn't dare resist."

Zhao Chi laughed: "They don't have the Fearless talent. Once their morale collapsed, they simply didn't have the guts to fight back."

Gu Qing nodded: "Right, Qi Yue stunned them outright. If it had been over eight hundred skeletons, we might still be fighting right now."

Zhao Chi looked around: "Qi Yue, where's the enemy lord? That human."

Qi Yue pointed at the damp earth ahead: "The biggest piece is right there."

Then she pointed at the dirt beside it: "Half a head is buried in that mud. The remaining few pieces I'm not too sure about—they should be scattered around nearby."

Zhao Chi nodded: "You don't have to be that specific. I just need to know he's dead. Have you taken a spiritual power pill?"

Qi Yue nodded her beautiful big head: "Mm, I've taken it. My spiritual power will be full again soon."

"Good!"

Zhao Chi surveyed the surrounding battlefield.

One orc hero remained, four Tier Three orcs remained, over a hundred and fifty Tier Two orcs remained, over a hundred and eighty Tier One orcs remained.

Indeed, no small number.

But with their lord dead, two heroes dropping on the spot, and a large number of elites dying instantly, they were seized with immense fear of Qi Yue in an instant.

If they took advantage of Qi Yue's spiritual power being drained and threw themselves into a fierce encirclement, they might be able to drive her back.

After all, their killing power was still very strong.

But with the lord dead, their resistance was meaningless anyway.

Giving up resistance was fine too.

There wasn't much to scavenge on the battlefield—only the territory section above still needed to be searched through.

Looking up, he could see the panicked orcs up there.

There should only be orc craftsmen left there—almost no threat to Zhao Chi.

But right now he didn't have much time.

Defeating the enemy lord was not his goal.

"Gu Qing, take them back and lock them up. Let's leave the territory up there for now—we'll search it slowly once everything is finished."

"Mm, alright. Escort them away."

At Gu Qing's command, the female soldiers drove the orc captives down the mountain, heading toward Glimmer Village.

Qi Yue followed behind, her enormous footsteps sounding out one after another.

Those orcs, hearing those footsteps, were surprisingly obedient.

Zhao Chi followed behind Gu Qing, checking the current battle situation.
