Chapter 130: Fierce Battle
Mailun had already approached the Krieg Cavalry's defensive line, the staff in Mailun's hand emitting a dazzling gray light.
It gathered the corpses of the Orc warriors that had just died into a massive mass of flesh, and as the flesh writhed, it transformed into a Blood Giant about 5 meters tall.
Under Mailun's control, this giant blocked most of the laser beams; these laser beams burned holes into the Blood Giant's body, but they were quickly filled in by Mailun using new flesh.
With Mailun making a move, and the artillery bombardment currently attacking another Orc unit, the Blood Giant's advance speed increased; soon, Mailun saw those masked Two-legged Sheep using the strange weapons in their hands to aim at the gaps in the Blood Giant, attacking the Orcs hiding behind it.
Mailun laughed loudly and shouted, "Orc warriors, those Two-legged Sheep are just behind the ruins not far from you, crush them! Use their blood to manifest your glory!"
The Orcs around Mailun let out a howl.
"Roar, roar, roar..."
These Orcs gripped their weapons tightly and opened fire on those Krieg soldiers under the cover of the Blood Giant.
Just when Mailun thought there would be no surprises, it suddenly felt a slight tremor in the ground beneath its feet; not far away, 35 Krieg Cavalrymen leveled their Hunting Spears and charged toward the feet of the Blood Giant.
Upon seeing these Two-legged Sheep, the Orcs raised their weapons and opened fire.
The foremost Krieg Cavalrymen fell, but those behind followed closely.
They thrust their Hunting Spears into the Blood Giant's ankles, and fierce flames ignited, rapidly setting the tall Blood Giant ablaze and burning it.
Mailun discovered that it wanted to repair the Blood Giant with the staff in its hand, but it could not repair it at all; to be precise, the repair speed could not keep up.
Mailun had no choice but to abandon this plan; the staff in its hand radiated a blood-red light, and the bodies of the surrounding Orcs began to swell, their eyes turned crimson, and the muscles on their arms grew several times larger.
After feeling the changes in their bodies, these Orc warriors charged past the still-burning Blood Giant toward the Two-legged Sheep that were firing at them.
Relying on numerical superiority, soon, after the sacrifice of more than 200 Orc warriors, the Orc warriors in the rear engaged in close-quarters combat with these Krieg soldiers.
The sounds of battle cries, gunfire, the tearing of flesh, and the explosions not far away caused this battlefield to descend into a bloody slaughter.
With Mailun's blood-red blessing, these Orc warriors' physical attributes were enhanced; although the Krieg soldiers found that their strength could not compare to these Orcs, while these Orcs gained strength, their movements also became stiff, and the Krieg soldiers relied on their combat awareness to kill the Orcs one by one.
Just as Mailun felt the situation was settled, it discovered that the artillery bombardment from these Two-legged Sheep had actually reached the place where the Orc warriors and the Two-legged Sheep were engaged in battle.
"What are these Two-legged Sheep doing! There are quite a few of their own warriors there too, how can they bring themselves to do it? Aren't these their elites?"
At this moment, Mailun's mind was a bit unable to process it; it looked at the scene unfolding before it in disbelief, and the Orc Guard standing by its side also clicked its tongue and said, "These masked Two-legged Sheep are too crazy, they can even bring themselves to attack their own companions, and with lethal force at that."
As the artillery fire covered that area, Mailun could not see what was happening inside, only seeing Orc warriors rushing into the explosion zone, and some fragments of bodies flying out.
Just then, Hand Grenades were thrown from behind Mailun.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Before these Orc Guards could react, these Hand Grenades had already exploded.
Immediately following, laser beams pierced through the smoke and dust kicked up by the explosions, shooting at the Orc Guards wounded by the blasts.
"Cough, cough, cough! What's the situation! How could there be Two-legged Sheep behind us!"
After the smoke and dust dissipated slightly, Mailun discovered that Two-legged Sheep wearing red headscarves and standing about two meters tall had appeared behind it and were firing at it.
Although its side had been caught off guard, the Orc Guards quickly recovered from the previous explosion, protected Mailun, and sought cover to return fire.
"Lord Mailun! Please hide behind cover!"
After an Orc Guard said this to Mailun, a laser beam struck its head, and this Orc Guard fell straight to the ground, motionless.
Mailun watched the Two-legged Sheep appearing in the rear, gnashing its teeth in anger; the staff in its hand emitted a dim yellow light, and those Orc Guards who were firing hid within the dim yellow light and vanished.
This change made Yingzhou, who was behind the Catachan Warrior, notice something was wrong; the surrounding objects gradually became blurry, and the Orcs in front suddenly disappeared.
"Damn it! What ability did that Orc Priest use again?" Yingzhou cursed under his breath.
When these Orc Guards appeared again, Yingzhou was surprised to find that there were strange Runes on their exposed skin, flickering with a brownish-yellow light.
When they appeared, they were already on both sides of the Catachan Warrior, and the Large Rifles in their hands opened fire on the Catachan Warrior; the foremost Catachan Warrior faced the sudden attack, and it was too late to dodge.
The Catachan Warriors in the rear quickly sought cover and counterattacked these Orc Guards, and laser beams also killed many Orc Guards who were not wearing helmets.
But the opposing Orc Guards did not dodge; instead, they began to charge toward this side, and the original hundred-meter distance quickly evolved into hand-to-hand combat between the two sides; seeing this situation, Yingzhou changed his plan.
He summoned 20 Catachan Warriors carrying ten Heavy Mortars to fire at those Orc Guards who were firing at the Catachan Warriors from the rear.
Immediately after, Yingzhou summoned 50 Catachan Demons he had upgraded with points to pincer these Orc Guards from the rear.
A series of unexpected events left these Orc Guards not knowing which side to fight; they felt like Two-legged Sheep were everywhere.
"Damn it! How are these Two-legged Sheep everywhere!"
An Orc Guard changed the magazine of the rifle in its hand that had run out of ammo and hid behind cover.
The previous explosion had caused their guard unit of only 500 to lose at least half, and now the remaining Orc Guards felt no advantage at all.
Yingzhou watched the battle stabilize and felt a sense of relief in his heart, but a strange, eerie whispering suddenly sounded in the dim yellow environment.
Yingzhou could not understand these words, but those Orc Guards fighting the Catachan Warriors rushed toward the nearest Catachan Warrior, the strange Runes on their bodies emitting a blood-red light.
Immediately after, the corpses on the ground and those living Orc Guards exploded one after another.
Blood drenched many Catachan Warriors; one Catachan Warrior spat out an Orc tooth that had sprayed into its mouth and said viciously.
"F***! What are these Orcs doing! Self-destructing?"
"Exactly, and it's not even that dangerous!"
Although Yingzhou did not know what the whispering was about, his intuition told him that this definitely would not end like this.
Most importantly, how should he leave this dim yellow territory?
