Chapter 324: Chapter 31: Iron and Blood_2

After tonight, the relationship among the three forces will probably be reshuffled.

Alliance or cooperation? How should the two sides’ [players] get along?

Of course, to consider this question, one must first survive!

Xia Wu did not command the battle, but instead instantly jumped onto the camp wall.

Looking at the huge, shimmering dark figure at the edge of the forest.

"Was it driven here by that thing?" Li Changhe didn’t need to climb the wall to observe; the black hawk summoned by [Hawkeye Demon Eyes] was hovering in the air.

At this point, Li Changhe’s range of observation was even wider than that of Cangyue Ming. After all, the island only limited energy perception, not visual observation.

"Caw caw caw! Is that the leader of this attack?" Father Xia let out a gloomy laugh: "Let us take the head of that monster!"

"Aren’t you guys watching the camp? Watch out you don’t lose everything!" Li Changhe reminded.

Xia Wu looked back at his cheap godson, as if seeing something slowly rising in him.

Not far away, a low-pitched voice came from the military tent where the three steam soldiers were stationed.

The white-clothed soldiers guarding the mechs looked shocked.

Apparently, without orders, the three steam mechs had already started up.

"Is this... the authority the research institute spoke of?" Xia Wu’s face slightly changed, as if he thought of something: "Is it Your Majesty’s Thousand-Year Tang Plan?"

He had luckily heard of such rumors, but he didn’t know much about them as a eunuch.

It was only by chance that he heard about this plan, as if some civil officials had come up with it together.

However, now is not the time to discuss this issue.

He who controls savages and attacks the camp must be killed first!

The soldiers of the Great Tang are powerful, but they are not enough to face such a number of enemies.

"In the year of the plague, I was protecting His Majesty and didn’t see your heroic achievements. Now let me take a look, let me see the strength of General Li Ba!" Xia Wu let out a grotesque laugh.

After speaking, he jumped out of the camp without looking back. After a few steps, he appeared hundreds of meters away and faced the savages head-on.

Instead of confronting the savages directly, Xia Wu used the force of his legs to jump high and dodge their attack. When he landed, he stepped on the head of a savage.

Running all the way, a lotus bloomed with every step.

Those savages he stepped on died instantly.

With each of Xia Wu’s steps, their skulls were crushed by the tremendous force.

His figure reached its peak, aimed straight for the monster hidden in the forest.

As Xia Wu rushed into the forest, the trees nearby began to sway.

At the same time, an inhuman roar echoed, indicating that the battle had begun.

"He just left like that?" The Moon God frowned.

Looking at the Great Tang soldiers on full alert around him, their numbers were scarce, only seventy or so.

The remaining ones were white-clothed soldiers who belonged to the civil service.

Although the scholars of the Great Tang were skilled in various ways.

Even if they were strong fighters, facing at least five hundred savages wasn’t enough.

After Father Xia left, the last heavyweight expert was also gone. How long could they hold on for? Moon God calculated and it felt a bit precarious.

"It’s enough. If we were in the martial arts forces, we might have to fight our way out to deal with that thing ourselves. Compared to those sects that are wary of each other, we are in luck! We have a unified voice, a militarized army, and a powerful transcendent willing to help execute the beheading operation." He Feng replied, "Or maybe it was the good fortune that was called the godfather? Let’s do this – next time you are all in the plot task, try it out, find a likable plot character and call them godfather or godmother."

"So, we should learn from the big thigh (powerful person) and shout for daddy everywhere?" Moon God chuckled, the curved knife already out in his hand. Since the powerful person wasn’t around, they could only rely on themselves.

"For now, let’s just hold on through this attack." He Feng waved his spear, his eyes gradually growing calm: "We don’t have any assassin-type [players], but the other side might cause trouble in this situation. Everyone, be careful."

"I’ll stay in the camp." Cangyue Ming nodded.

"Mainly we need to buy time until our abilities are unlocked today. That will be our glorious moment." Li Changhe reminded, drawing his bow like a full moon, with a cold glow bursting forth.

He directly hit a savage 200 meters away, the one running at the forefront of the group.

The arrowhead was precisely shot into his neck, the sharp arrowhead ruthlessly piercing through the savage’s throat.

The savage stumbled forward a few more steps, clutching his throat before falling to the ground, trampled and swallowed by the savages behind him.

Li Changhe’s precise archery made the nearby Tang soldiers take notice, and as if on cue, the Tang soldiers also launched their attack.

Indeed, the Great Tang had not made significant progress in creating effective firearms, but they achieved great success in developing the Eight Ox Crossbow and crossbow swords.

Each Tang soldier was equipped with a light crossbow, and when the savage people approached within one hundred meters, they fired.

The rapid crossbow fire, like a hurricane of arrows, pierced through the ranks of savages, killing more than a dozen of them.

But it was not enough; the savages seemed fearless at this moment.

Even if their arms and thighs were pierced by arrows, they still relentlessly attacked the Tang army camp.

The attack continued as the Tang troops set off traps placed nearby, apparently fragmentation mines.

The traps and long-range fire somewhat slowed down the charge of the savages.

The difference in numbers, however, still allowed their distance to gradually close.

Several monstrous flesh mountains even blocked the Pale Wildleymen in front of them, acting as living shields. Combined with the savages’ crazed and fearless demeanor.

The Tang soldiers were somewhat unnerved for a moment. They had experienced life and death before, but this was the first time they had faced such monsters.

At about thirty meters away, Li Changhe dropped his heavy bow.

This distance was no longer an opportunity to draw a bow; what was left was hand-to-hand combat!

"The only defensive fortification we have is here. We must hold it! Second team, fall back and provide light crossbow support! First team, prepare to activate the chainsaws!" Hu Shao roared, calming the soldiers down.

"General Li Ba!" Hu Shao handed a Mo Blade to Li Changhe. The [Players] chose their familiar cold weapons over the unwieldy chainsaw halberds.

Li Changhe took the Mo Blade without any expression. Ordinarily, he would have said he was an archer and would be more effective supporting from a distance with the second team.

But now, he had no choice but to face them head-on.

It was perhaps the whispers of the heroic spirits of the Great Tang from the [Indomitable Ride of Hundred Tigers] that were pleading in his ear, or the interference of the Extraordinary Cause and Effect of the martial arts force.

At this moment, Li Changhe’s fighting spirit was unmatched!

"So..." Li Changhe’s Mo Blade traced an ultimate circle as he looked at the savage rushing towards him.

The savage was severed into two parts before falling to the ground, the Mo Blade stained with crimson blood.

Li Changhe issued a deep command: "Kill!"

In a daze, the fear in the hearts of the Tang soldiers vanished.

Seeing the blood-soaked figure, they seemed to have gained a tremendous amount of courage.

That was honor, that was destiny, that was...the war spirit!

The indomitable spirit of hundreds of battles, the immortal soul of thousands of armies.

Though my body has decayed, my fighting spirit remains eternal.

I return to tread the Nether Road, my banner emerging from the Ghost Gate.

At the hour of the tiger, I rise to join in slaying gods!

Since defeating Tudah’s God’s Whip with the Great Tang army in the Sun King’s storyline, Li Changhe unlocked the [Indestructible War Spirit] achievement and obtained the [War Leader] aura status.

[During team battles, the morale of friendly forces increases, and their combat power increases. Not effective on [Players]]

He originally thought this was just a useless status, as it could not affect [Players]. What use would it have since every time he entered a [Task], he had to find a plot force to fight alongside him?

But at this moment, Li Changhe perfectly demonstrated the effect of this aura.

"For the Great Tang!"

"For the War Spirit!"

Hu Shao felt the power surging within him, stronger than ever before. Looking at Li Changhe’s figure, Hu Shao knew that it was the power bestowed upon him by General Li Ba!

He roared with all his might: "For General Li Ba, kill!"

The Tang soldiers roared, pulling their chainsaws together, transforming into the deadliest of weapons and charging straight toward the savages! Blood and flesh splattered everywhere!

Meanwhile, the sounds of steam and gears echoed throughout the military tent.

Three armor suits, like those of demonic gods, emitted a deafening sound amidst the billows of steam.

"Command received. Kill!"

The bloody battle of iron and flesh began!
