Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 736: Thousand Eye Spring

The night was vast.

The earth seemed lonely, as if it was the end of the world. The dark red earth spread forward endlessly. The dragon nest was the largest tonight, and the giant crescent wheel was hanging in the sky. The golden moonlight was like a dragon, looking down at the earth. Golden Dragon Moon, Heaven and Earth Slaughter. This was especially true in the Scarlet Flame Highlands, where the flames of war were blazing, and the atmosphere was even more

Under the oppressive moonlight, a few flying cars appeared at the edge of the highlands. The Griffin logo was on the carriage, and it was Beth Cord's emblem. After a day of running, these flying cars finally rushed back to the Scarlet Flame Highlands first.

Alan was in one of the cars.

Reina walked back from the driver's seat with a solemn expression on his face.

"How is the situation?" Alan asked straightforwardly.

"This is simply terrible." Reina sat down and said, "We've just contacted the headquarters. We've already lost half of the border area. We've all retreated to the inner perimeter. There are several camps under siege, one of which is the most dangerous. That camp alone has more than 3,000 enemies gathered. They're going to be unable to defend it anymore."

"There are quite a few of them. Where are they?"

Reina took out a tablet and pointed at one of the coordinates on the map. Alan took it over. This was a plan of the Scarlet Flame Highlands. There were several colored areas on it. They are grey, yellow, red and blue. Among them, the grey area represented the lost defensive area, the yellow area represented the war zone, but the battle situation was still under control. The red area also represented the war zone, but it meant that the battle was tight. As for the blue area, it was a safe area.

Above the Scarlet Flame Highlands, the Blood Gate Stronghold was located at the foot of the Trident Volcano. The defensive area was fan-shaped with the stronghold as the origin. Three of the clan defensive areas occupied half of the total line of defense, while the other half was under the responsibility of the Federal Military Department. At this moment, in Alan's brain, the Goliath Family's defensive area was already grey, while the Morsen and Bescot's defensive areas were mostly grey, while the others were red, yellow, and little.

Only the strongholds and the surrounding buffer zones still showed the blue zone.

Lei Naluo pointed to a high-red war zone in the clan's defensive area. The red patch was so dense that blood seemed to seep out. One could see that several red battle zones formed a line of defense. Behind the line of defense was the clan camp behind the defensive zone. Even if only one point was broken through on this line of defense, it would still cause chain damage. Enemy soldiers could flood in through the gaps in the defensive line like a tide, then disintegrate other defensive nodes through the inside, resulting in the collapse of the entire defensive line.

"Then let's go here." Allen raised his head and said, "Let's first relieve the pressure on this camp."

"With just a few of us?" Reina shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear clearly that there were at least three thousand people gathered there? We only have two hundred people, that's not enough."

"There will always be a way to retrieve the topographic map nearby." Alan handed the brain to the electronics expert beside him.

Suddenly, the flying car stopped and a soldier's voice came from the driver's seat, "There's an enemy ahead."

"Quantity?"

"A small team of about twenty people."

The chaotic races had attacked the Scarlet Flame Highlands during the day, and had now advanced to the central region of the highlands. There weren't many remnants of the enemy in the rear area like this, and there were more squads patrolling the rear. Beth Cod stood up and opened the car door. "I'll take care of it."

The night was still quiet, and a group of Catu warriors carefully circled around the boiling spring in front of them. There were quite a few hot springs boiling like this on the Scarlet Flame Highlands. There were probably no more than 800 hot springs of all sizes. The temperature of the boiling spring water was extremely high, and boiling water of four to five hundred degrees could burn a person who fell into the water to death within a few seconds. Even if they were Catus with thick skin and thick flesh, they didn't have the strength of a dozen or so levels. Once they fell into the water, they would only struggle for a few more seconds. Not to mention the fact that the Catus only had thick armor, these heavy armor or armor could not save their lives. On the contrary, they could only accelerate their death.

During the daytime, there were many Catus who fell into the boiling spring, and by the time they were fished out, they had already turned into ripe corpses. The heavy armor on their bodies was boiled to the point of being completely red, and they were tightly embedded with the corpses.

No one wanted to turn into cooked meat, so when the soldiers saw the boiling spring, they bypassed it. The boiling spring continuously sprayed dense water mist towards the outside. As soon as it passed by, the surroundings were filled with mist. They were both hot and wet. The Catu warriors felt uncomfortable as they walked through the mist. They just wanted to leave this place quickly. A person walking at the end of the line suddenly felt that something had hit him, and his entire body couldn't help but fall in the direction of the boiling spring. With a thud, he fell into the water, and the boiling spring water made him scream miserably.

The other soldiers who were alarmed hurriedly ran to the side of the spring, wanting to lend a helping hand. At this moment, a faint silhouette appeared in the fog behind them, and Belmore silently approached the Catus. With both hands and feet, he knocked these clumsy fellows into the boiling spring two or three times in a row. The Catu Warrior finally discovered that he was an uninvited guest and swung his axe towards him.

Belmond shrugged and lowered his hands. Dark flames flew between his fingers, forming a dagger. Immediately, he flashed into the enemy formation, as if he had no substance. His figure shuttled through the Catus' sabers and axes like lightning. When they flashed out of the enemy formation, the remaining Gaztu stiffened and spat out blood arrows from their throats, killing them on the spot!

Belmond dispersed the Dark Flame Dagger and walked back to drag the corpses to the edge of the spring. He then kicked them all down to destroy the corpse in the boiling spring.

A moment later, he returned to the flying car. Allen, who was in the flying car, had already made a decision after reading the terrain and environment data retrieved by the electronics expert. "We can use this place," he tapped on the screen.

He pointed to a dense concentration of boiling springs, where Bethcod's soldiers named them Thousand Eye Springs. Although there weren't a thousand boiling springs, there were still a hundred or so. The distance between the springs was no more than one or two meters, so from the sky, there were a hundred boiling springs forming a network. The boiling springs of all sizes were grids.

"What do you mean?" Rena asked.

Alan smiled and didn't answer.

"All of you, hold on! Young Master Rena has brought reinforcements back. If you are a man, hold on!"

In front of the Thousand Eye Spring, there was a valley filled with rocks. Irregular rocks rose up here, crisscrossing the surroundings, causing the terrain here to be unfavorable for troops to march. One of the camps in the Bethcod inner circle was located on a low mountain in this valley, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to rely on the hundreds of soldiers guarding the camp for a day and night, and they would have been drowned by the thousands of enemies below.

But at this time, the battle was also very tense. The Catu soldiers spent a day and finally cleared a path on the battlefield, allowing them to gather troops to attack the camp. Fortunately, during the daytime battles, a few of the enemy Grai Giants were killed first. Otherwise, this passage would have been paved faster and earlier. Now that the Catus were moving up this path, Bethcodt's army was defending the mountain, and both sides were fighting for every inch of space with blood and life.

There was only one lone path from the foot of the mountain to the camp, and this lone path was only enough for a car to pass through. Beth Cord had set up many obstacles on this path to prevent this situation from happening. The mountain path was filled with bunkers and fortifications. Every few meters was a battle fortress, or a minefield. Although the Catus' offensive was fierce, they had only managed to open up half a mountain path to this point. However, there were countless corpses lying on half of the mountain path. To facilitate the advance of the army, the Catus did not have time to restrain the corpses of their compatriots and only lined them up beside the road. The corpses on both sides of the mountain path could be taken out of the boss's body, which could infer how intense the battle was.

Bethcodt had suffered heavy losses as well, and there were fewer than two hundred soldiers left who could still fight. Almost all of them were celebrating, and some of them were even seriously injured, and were unwilling to stay in the first aid area of the camp. If it weren't for this desperate effort, this mountain path would have been cleared by the enemy long ago.

Up until now, the cannonballs in the camp had long been exhausted, and the solid-state batteries of the high-energy cannons had been used up. The remaining energy was supplied to the war chariots and the two intelligent turrets as much as possible. Most importantly, the camp was currently surrounded by the enemy, and the clan camp was unable to deliver supplies to them. The head of the camp was already prepared to die in battle, but just as he was in despair, he received a communication from Reina. This undoubtedly raised a glimmer of hope for the soldiers in the camp.

However, Reina did not tell him that there were only 200 reinforcements.

At the foot of the mountain, a tattered black cloak was blown by the night wind. The owner of the cloak was nearly four meters tall and was already considered exceptionally tall among the Catus. As the commander of this army, Sabott of the Black Nightmare looked extremely irritated. He never thought that a mere human barracks would take him a day. Even if he took down this camp now, he wouldn't even be able to raise his head in front of his comrades.

Sabott occasionally held the serrated blade at his waist. It wasn't that he hadn't thought of personally going into battle. However, if even a mere 200 soldiers needed him, Sabott would probably be laughed at by his clansmen for a hundred years. Sabott could not afford to lose face and could only urge the soldiers to attack while cursing endlessly in his heart.

At this time, a warrior stepped forward and said, "Brave Sabott, we have discovered a few humans."

"Where is it?"

"The rear of our army."

"How much?"

"Three people."

Sabott suddenly turned around and pulled out a saw blade from his waist and placed it on the soldier's neck. "Only three humans have come to disturb me, don't you despise me too?" Idiot, can't we just send a team to destroy it? If a squad can't beat them, send me a hundred men squad. "If you can't even deal with three humans, then there's no need for you to live, because it's my shame for you to be alive!"

"Yes, Sabott. Those three humans will die here. I swear by my ancestors!"
