Chapter 767: The Legend Strikes, The Angel Descends!

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

"Ding ding~!"

The arrow fletchings struck the King Xiyu Legion troops forming a defensive formation ahead.

The effect they produced was extremely minimal.

The envoy from the El Province showed a trace of joy on his face, looking at the Guolian Army before the Hengzaitian Sect gate and sneering:

"Hmph! Such a trick; after using it once, do you think I will fall for it again?"

The first wave of assault produced not the slightest effect, so the archers quickly launched two more attacks.

However, the next two offensives differed little from the first.

The three people on the platform frowned tightly.

The First Princess sighed deeply:

"Now, we can only fight and see."

Amidst the archers' wave after wave of nearly futile attacks, the King Xiyu Legion drew closer and closer.

As the enemy drew nearer, the war drums before the Tianmen Gate beat more and more frequently.

Amidst this booming, fierce drumming, the two great legions crashed together.

Facing the solid infantry of the two-nation alliance, the King Xiyu Imperial Alliance did not use cavalry to charge directly.

Instead, they used equally formidable infantry for close-quarters combat.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Amidst the thick cries of battle, the war erupted instantly.

Right from the start, the advantage of the realm gap appeared.

In the first wave of confrontation, the shield bearers at the very front of the two-nation alliance could not hold out for long and were directly beheaded by the King Xiyu Alliance under their swords.

The battle situation instantly became gruesome.

The difference brought by the Level 980 realm meant the two-nation alliance needed two or even three infantry units to kill one opposing infantry unit.

Even stronger individuals required four or five to exhaust and kill.

Already at a disadvantage in numbers, they suffered thousands of casualties in less than ten minutes.

Basically every minute, the First Princess issued orders to retreat.

If not for the cavalry assisting and distracting the enemy on the side, the casualties during the retreat would have been even greater.

After twenty minutes, the two-nation alliance had retreated to beneath the command platform.

Just three li away lay the Tianmen Gate.

The First Princess turned to look at the Tianmen Gate built between two massive cliffs, her face showing difficulty.

She did not know whether to retreat or continue to hold firm.

If they did not hold the current position, once the follow-up troops arrived, it would be very difficult to seize this territory.

If they did not retreat, then with the current troop strength and rate of attrition of the two-nation alliance, they would likely be annihilated before reinforcements even arrived.

While she pondered, the sounds of soldiers dying miserably reached her ears, and her original desire to hold firm instantly crumbled.

Those were all vibrant lives; how could she, a mere woman, bear to watch all her subordinates perish.
