Chapter 2748: Achievement
"Am I right? Duoyin hopes for war between you and me. No matter who wins, the final victor will only be Duoyin."
A trace of golden shimmer appeared in the Elf Queen's eyes, and there was a gentle smile on her face.
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak. He could sense that the Elf Queen was not a healing type, yet the other party's ability had an extremely powerful healing effect. Of course, this was related to his own Charisma attribute, which was only 0.1 points.
"Hmm?"
The Elf Queen looked at Su Xiao with some confusion. She could feel that her ability had already taken effect, but this Great Overlord from the Chaos Legion seemed to have no reaction.
"How about we go into my Elf Palace to talk? Although we are enemies, we will have common topics."
"..."
"Did it fail?"
The Elf Queen sighed lightly, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
"Full of nonsense. All troops, charge."
Su Xiao drew the long blade at his waist and pointed it forward. Batos behind him roared, and the 420,000 Wolf Cavalry further back also shouted, the sound waves shaking the heavens.
"Frontline charge team, prepare!"
Orc Hero Worpol shouted and spurred the mount wolf beneath him, charging at the very front. A hundred meters of distance was enough for a charge.
The Wolf Cavalry Legion displayed extraordinary adaptability; the front team assembled, while the middle and rear teams circled to the sides, preparing to ambush the enemy's flanks.
The Elf Queen on the deer's back had a not-so-subtle look of astonishment in her eyes. She really hadn't expected the enemy to launch a decisive battle just like that. One had to know, the enemy had just finished attacking the Ancient Tree Fortress; these Wolf Cavalry were not in their peak state.
Swish—a blue afterimage passed through the Elf Queen's head. Strangely, there were no guards around her.
After the Exile penetrated the Elf Queen's head, her body gradually turned into a bubble and finally dissipated in the air. The Elf Queen was not present in person; given her status, she would not come to the frontline battlefield.
The Exile in broken blade state flew back and clung to Su Xiao's cuff. He leaped onto the back of the Demon Flame Dragon Batos, and mental threads spread from his hands, sinking into Batos's back. In this way, he could completely control Batos.
A crystal layer spread on Batos's lower abdomen to enhance its defensive power. Batos's size was too large; forming these crystal layers consumed nearly 12,000 points of Su Xiao's Mana.
"Prepare for battle!"
An Elf Prince wearing a metal helmet shouted and rode the brown deer beneath him, charging at the very front.
His side had a total of 420,000 Wolf Cavalry, and the enemy force was 500,000 Morning Glow Warriors. When the two sides fought, it was really hard to say who would win and who would lose.
"Kill."
Orc Hero Worpol charged at the very front. The muscles on his right arm bulged, and magma patterns were outlined on the black armor that was almost embedded into his body.
The two great armies charged at each other. After a brief charge, they collided. The Elves in the front row let out miserable screams, the mount wolves howled as they flew backward, and the Gray Orcs let out roars. The blood of both sides dyed the ground red.
It was only a dozen seconds, and the two armies were already in a chaotic battle. The Wolf Cavalry on his side charged into the battlefield in waves in a charging posture, and at the enemy's rear, a large rain of arrows descended.
A dragon roar came from above. Su Xiao stood on Batos's back; he had now completely controlled this Demon Flame Dragon.
Following Su Xiao's control, Batos lowered its flight altitude. When it was a few dozen meters above the ground, it had already accumulated dragon fire.
Whoosh!
A large amount of dragon fire spewed out. The further down it went, the larger the area the dragon fire covered. After hitting the ground, the continuously spewing dragon fire spread to the surroundings.
Su Xiao controlled Batos to turn its dragon head. While flying forward, it began to spew dragon fire downward in a Z-shape. As the dragon fire spread on the ground, the Z-shaped burning trajectory connected into a large area.
Batos's dragon fire was very strong. Even for Morning Glow Warriors, after burning in the dragon fire for about 3 seconds, they would turn into charred remains.
Bang, bang, bang...
Several arrows nailed into Batos's abdomen. Its HP dropped by about 0.1%. Don't underestimate this HP drop; if 6,000 to 8,000 Morning Glow Warriors aimed and volleyed at Batos, it would be killed instantly, without even a chance to use biological energy to recover HP.
Conversely, if a volley couldn't kill Batos, because there were large amounts of Life Stones in its abdomen, these Life Stones would convert into biological energy, which could recover its HP at an extremely fast speed. With enough biological energy in its body and not being killed instantly, Batos was extremely difficult to kill.
After a round of dragon fire spewing, Batos entered a "high temperature" state. If it continued to spew dragon fire, the high temperature in its head would burn its brain.
Batos was an elite Demon Flame Dragon. Like the leader-level Demon Beast Abaddon and the Mantis Armor Blue, it was a high-level Zerg unit with individual consciousness.
A round of dragon fire spewing killed about 3,000 enemies. Su Xiao controlled Batos to increase its flight altitude. In about half a minute, Batos could perform the next round of dragon fire spewing.
In this kind of plains battle, Batos's kill count plummeted; in a siege, it could burn a large area at once.
Hundreds of arrows nailed into Batos's abdomen, chest, and beneath its neck. As the biological energy in its body recovered its injuries, these arrows were pushed out of its body by the regenerating flesh and fell toward the battlefield below.
The shouting and killing from below reached Su Xiao's ears. He certainly knew that there was no other good way to enter the Aier Great Forest right now; they could only fight a bloody battle here. If the Morning Glow troops retreated back into the forest, it would be very troublesome; the forest terrain was not suitable for Wolf Cavalry combat.
Less than ten minutes after the battle started, the Elf Queen ordered the Elf race's main force to retreat, fighting and retreating in the direction of the Aier Great Forest.
Amu was exceptionally brave in the chaotic army. The 【Soul of the King】 he wore provided Axe Master X basic ability at this time, but Amu didn't become a technique-type. The heavy Dragon Heart Axe in his hand—as long as the enemy dared to resist, they would either die or be crippled. As for counterattacking Amu, that was even more miserable.
Amu's current Ice Shield carried a Life Rebound effect. This ability determined the final rebound intensity based on the enemy's attack intensity and Amu's own HP level.
Su Xiao, high above, saw with his own eyes a Morning Glow Warrior jump and slash at Amu, only to be killed instantly by the Ice Shield's rebound damage. The other party's body was shattered by the impact of the "Life Rebound" effect.
Compared to Amu, Bahar was absolute speed. It constantly shuttled through space, appearing behind the necks of one enemy after another. Fast, efficient, energy poison—this was Bahar's combat style.
As for the fellow follower Xiang Bubu Wang, it was crouching behind Su Xiao, fearing that an arrow might be shot, looking like it was prioritizing its own survival. If it were in the battlefield below, even if it were to duel one-on-one with a Morning Glow Warrior, Xiang Bubu would be beaten until it doubted its dog life.
Along the way of chaotic fighting, when the Aier Great Forest already appeared in the distance, the Elf race's dispersed formation gradually gathered. They wanted to charge back into the Aier Great Forest in one go; once they reached there, it would be their home field.
It could be said that the Morning Glow troops had achieved a phased victory. They successfully rescued Elf Elder Ruth, and more importantly, at the same time Ruth was rescued, another 40,000 Morning Glow Warriors also gathered into the main force.
Besides these, the Elf race had another goal: the Elf Queen wanted to end this war with her own ability. Unfortunately, she failed.
It had to be admitted that even on the plains, the Morning Glow troops were still powerful; the Wolf Cavalry Legion found it difficult to annihilate them.
High in the sky, on the back of the Demon Flame Dragon Batos, Su Xiao looked down at the Morning Glow troops who had already gathered their formation and were charging toward the Aier Great Forest. He knew the opportunity had come. With the enemy's current formation, one Apollo down—not to mention the entire army being wiped out—more than 50% of the Morning Glow troops would be left here.
【Wrath of the Sun · Apollo】 appeared in Su Xiao's hand. At this time, he was thousands of meters above the ground. Activating Apollo at this distance would not alert the enemy troops below.
Click, click, click~
A crystal layer clung to Su Xiao's right hand. After he made a throwing posture downward, he began to count down in his heart. When there were 5 seconds left before Apollo exploded, the Apollo in his right hand had become extremely scorching.
Bang!!
An air wave broke open, and Apollo turned into a scorching red afterimage, heading straight downward.
Thud!
Like a small sun landing, a fireball with a diameter of three kilometers smashed onto the ground. Ruth, who was at the rear of the Morning Glow troops, was directly blown away by a heat wave. There was a buzzing sound in his ears, and he was somewhat deafened by the loud noise of the explosion.
A moment later, Ruth patted his charred hair. Just as the fire on his head went out, he stood there dumbfounded. A giant semicircular crater with a diameter of three kilometers appeared in his line of sight. The giant crater was covered with golden flames and magma flowing downward.
High in the sky, the white heat in Su Xiao's hand dissipated, and the crystal layer fell off his hand. The Apollo just now had blown up more than 60% of the Morning Glow troops.
Besides a massive amount of war merit, Su Xiao also received a large number of prompts, four of which were about the battle-type titles obtained after killing more than half of the Morning Glow troops.
Checking these four types of titles, Su Xiao discovered that the secondary titles used to upgrade the War Overlord had already accumulated enough. The War Overlord could finally be upgraded to a seven-star title.
After confirming this, Su Xiao had Bahar convey the order for the entire army to retreat. There was no need to continue. He prepared to upgrade Apollo to a seven-star title first, and then come back to deal with the Elf race; that would be safer. ===== CHAPTER 2749 =====
