Chapter 898

Now the one shrieking wildly was no longer just them—Xiao Ning had joined in too.

Xiao Ning kept screaming wildly.

She could not accept any of what was happening now.

Hu Ran had been stabbed to death by a hail of spears in front of the formation, with no chance to be rescued at all.

Hu Ran's gruesome death caused a momentary panic among the soldiers at the front of the formation.

After all, this was the combined attack of Tang Ruan and fifteen giant female spearmen—utterly devastating.

It was like one mouse running into sixteen cats, and cats with an extremely strong urge to attack.

When the remaining soldiers saw them turn around, they could barely hold their shields steady.

Tang Ruan did not hesitate, immediately leading the female spearmen in charging left and right.

Every strike from the giant female soldiers claimed a head.

Although their attack speed slowed after enlarging, combined with the burst of acceleration from a thrust, it felt as satisfying as ramming into people on a motorcycle.

Even if the target in front dodged, they could still smash the ones behind to death.

The thirty-five ordinary female spearmen couldn't take down one enemy per spear, but with the thrust combat method boosting them, piercing iron shields and dealing damage was no problem.

Besides, they had trained in cooperative kills in normal times as well.

"The one on the left, charge together!"

"No problem!"

"Two sisters over here, together!"

"Coming!"

"Don't hit those over there, those are tier-3 soldiers, way too tough!"

"Got it."

Those tier-3 legion soldiers had high military tier, high stats, and good equipment.

They could be taken down if forced, but the efficiency would be far lower.

Anyway, there were still plenty of tier-2 soldiers; the tier-3 ones could be dealt with later.

So Tang Ruan led the female spearmen to completely ignore the tier-3 soldiers, focusing exclusively on slaughtering the tier-2 ones.

This caused even greater panic among the tier-2 soldiers.

"Holy shit, holy shit, why are they only chasing us? Ah—"

"Don't come after me, ah—"

"Quickly help me defend, open up the formation, let me through!"

"Quickly heal me, my hand is broken!"

Two vassal heroes kept casting healing techniques, but they simply couldn't keep up with saving them.

Just healed one, but two got killed.

Just healed a small patch, but another large patch was nearly wiped out.

Xiao Ning's soldiers kept dwindling.

Zhao Chi had cast Enlargement on those fifteen female spearmen, originally intending to greatly increase their health so they could team up with Tang Ruan to hold the front-line enemies.

But he hadn't expected that not only could they take more hits, they could also kill even more.

Of the six hundred in the central formation, over a hundred had now died.

Among the surviving four hundred-plus, two hundred were still archers.

Those archers kept shooting, but they could only fire ordinary arrows, which did absolutely nothing against those high-defense female spearmen.

If they fired explosive arrows, those female spearmen probably wouldn't die, but their own side would get blown up first.

Xiao Ning's face turned ashen.

But she kept consoling herself.

It's fine... I still have two hundred tier-3 legion soldiers; as long as they don't die, I can win. Those female spearmen's equipment durability absolutely can't be much left.

Unconsciously, her gaze passed over Tang Ruan and the others' bodies, looking toward the battlefield ahead.

The moment she looked, she let out a despairing shriek.

On the left, Xiao Li and Jin Wei had been captured, Xiao Biao had shattered into a pile of frozen meat, and the soldiers were being slaughtered.

And on the right...

Holy shit, what the hell is going on over there on the right?

What the hell is that four-armed female giant?

Is this an illusion?

Of course it wasn't an illusion—it was the gorgeous Qi Yue.

Qi Yue led one hundred female swordsoldiers to meet Qi Lu and Qi Cheng in battle.

Those two were also people of Brook Village, both members of the Qi family.

But Zhao Chi had said: finish them quickly, then assassinate Xiao Ning.

Qi Yue would of course execute the order strictly.

Her secondary arms extended, and three giant blades appeared.

Qi Lu and Qi Cheng stood behind two hundred soldiers, already dumbfounded.

What the hell is this thing?

They knew they had run into a powerful enemy, but just how powerful, they had absolutely no concept.

Even without a concept now, they all knew the situation looked bad.

Qi Yue Rou ordered: "After my Moonlight Slash finishes, you all charge in—no quarter."

In the gentlest tone, saying the cruelest words.

"Yes!"

One hundred female blade soldiers gripped their two-handed greatswords and answered in unison.
