Chapter 104: Chapter 84 Minotaur Army (4000)

Minotaurs as far as the eye could see!

They stood at least four meters tall, with no clothes adorning their bodies, exposing skin covered in long manes of hair, and muscles that bulged in knots underneath. Their thick arms all carried crude, rust-spotted battle axes.

Atop their heads were two massive, curved horns with sharp tips, shimmering with a metallic luster. Their faces were entirely that of a savage bull jutting forward. Their huge eyes glinted with an unnerving green light under the moon.

Beneath their thick calves were enormous blood-red hooves.

It seemed Candice had done quite a good job; that guy Luo Meng did indeed arrange for a demon army to intercept us, providing a great opportunity to split up from the others.

He whispered softly into Catherine’s ear, and although she found it a bit strange, she nodded in agreement, for her master’s command was absolute.

"Minotaur..."

Rose Vesper’s complexion turned extremely grim, surprised to encounter such demons here, and in such alarming numbers, too.

These demons seemed to clearly know that their side was going to support Benson, deliberately intercepting them halfway.

Nadia’s expression also grew serious.

Minotaurs, among demons, belonged to the lower-end of intermediate-level creatures. Individually, their combat abilities weren’t very strong, although they possessed exceptionally robust bodies, they lacked brains.

A well-trained squad of ten could easily deal with them.

But the crux of the problem lay in the minotaur race’s superlative breeding capabilities, their vast numbers. When these minotaurs banded together, their destructive power could increase exponentially.

Furthermore, they shared a similar predilection to goblins; when their group lacked females, they would even raid to mate with human females, whose fates were often quite tragic.

Each of their arms would wield a weapon for fighting, and when faced with aerial or distant enemies, they would even throw a battle axe as a flying weapon. Because they lacked brains, these minotaurs might even throw all their weapons at the beginning of the battle and end up fighting with their bare fists.

In short... brawn over brains!

However, now, with tens of thousands of minotaurs appearing on the battlefield, it was an unstoppable tide of steel, their crimson hooves capable of trampling everything underfoot. It was precisely due to their lack of intelligence that made these minotaurs fearless in battle—they knew not what fear was, knowing only to use the battle axes or fists in their hands to shred their enemies to pieces.

Moreover, amidst the multitude of minotaurs, they also saw a monster whose stature was clearly larger than a typical minotaur by more than a size; its body was as large as a noble’s villa, with muscles like cast metal, fierce and elongated horns, and an overall dark red hue—unknowing of how much blood had stained it.

Eyes the size of a human head, emanating bone-chilling ferocity.

The chieftain of the minotaurs, Nag.

In this race, only the most powerful being could claim this title.

And, he was also the brother-in-law of Demon King Nage, uncle to Seventh Prince Romon; his sister was one of the wives of Demon King Nage...

Although it was uncertain how twisted Demon King Nage’s tastes were to choose such a wife.

Anyway, trouble had escalated. Nag’s strength was only slightly inferior to Romon’s, incredibly strong, and with tens of thousands of minotaurs, even for them, it would be particularly troublesome to handle.

Tens of thousands of minotaurs were forming a massive encirclement, charging towards them, their speed increasing ever more.

Boom, boom, boom...

The ground trembled, stones on the surface bounced continuously.

The deep roars mixed together, resounding like thunder, the sounds of the minotaurs echoing everywhere.

The ground churned up thick dust that even the moonlight could not penetrate. Their speed kept increasing, and even from a considerable distance, the terrifying pressure was palpable.

In all the visible surroundings, nearly all one could see were the figures of minotaurs in a frenzied rush, rusty weapons desperately brandished in mid-air.

The dark green gleam cutting through the dust allowed anyone to sense the hair-raising madness within.

Gulp...

Rose Vesper swallowed nervously, turning her gaze to Nadia and Catherine to discuss how to confront these demons.

Wiping them out was naturally impossible... Though not that it couldn’t be done, but it would waste a lot of time.

Evading them wouldn’t work either; the number of minotaurs was just too great. To bypass these minotaurs would require a wide detour, and time was of essence to them, they couldn’t afford to waste it.

"Catherine..."

Just as Rose Vesper was about to speak, Catherine interrupted her, "Every man for himself, get through them."

Catherine spoke calmly, one hand already drawing the Flame Extreme Heavy Sword, with crimson Fighting Energy beginning to spread over the blade.

"The first to get through helps support Benson."

Rose Vesper’s eyes brightened slightly; this was indeed a good strategy.

If any one of them could break through the minotaur blockade and rush to support Benson, his pressure would be greatly reduced, at least enough to hold on until additional reinforcements arrived.

Rose Vesper nodded slightly, her body beginning to emit a milky-white glow.
