Chapter 605: Chapter 277: Ascend the City

As the Chaos Ritual gradually unfolded, the closer one got to Yuezhou City, the stronger the nauseating stench of blood became.

At the same time, a sort of murmuring, seemingly far away yet echoing right next to one’s ear, occasionally arose. It seduced the soldiers into dedicating the most brutal warfare and the most passionate slaughter to it.

The sky over Yuezhou City had also become very strange.

The sky was obscured by some sort of spiraling black cloud, and in the middle of that black cloud, it seemed as if something was trying to enter this world.

But the soldiers did not focus their attention on that black cloud; whether it was an evil god or a demon didn’t matter.

Their enemy now was the horde of Chaos minions charging over the hills and dales.

Without the command of the Chaos Warriors and Believers, those roaming Chaos minions, like crows seeing carrion, were flocking towards the battle formation.

In their advance, there was no hint of tactics, but their huge numbers were enough to make one’s heart tighten.

They were howling, their red skin seeming even more vivid due to their excitement.

Like a blood tide, they surged towards the battle formation, wanting to create slaughter, to please their masters.

No one knew for sure how many had died under the butcher’s knife to summon these creatures. Fifty thousand? One hundred thousand? Or even more?

The warriors were standing by, hands tightly gripping their weapons, waiting for the command to be given.

When confronted with such numbers, they knew... this might be their last battle.

The enemy also understood the importance of Yuezhou City, they had already amassed tens of thousands of Chaos minions.

If Li Changhe was the Tian Ce General leading thousands of troops, commanding the invincible Great Tang Battle Group.

Of course, there would be nothing to fear; they could charge and flatten everything in their way.

But now, behind him were a group of wounded and battle-worn remnants.

But no one retreated, even the most timid soldier understood this was humanity’s final counterattack against Chaos.

The legendary hero, at this moment, had returned to the Great Tang, and would lead them to confront the most formidable enemy.

Even if the enemy were the evil gods, they would still try to deliver a resounding slap in their face.

Li Changhe at the forefront of the troop activated his Hawk Eye Magic Eye, his gaze bypassed the minions of Chaos, and landed on the city gate of Yuezhou City.

There, Li Changhe saw a horrifying monument.

The skulls of the armored soldiers were being profanely displayed, the blood flowing from their helmets was so glaring.

Next to the monument, bodies were impaled on long spears.

He saw Chi Yao, the once beautiful and tall girl, her neck had been twisted, her head hanging low looking far away. Her beautiful eyes had already covered in a gray fog.

He saw rows of corpses wearing black trench coats, they were damaged and contorted. They had suffered unimaginable torture in life. They were the Great Wall players who sacrificed themselves in the city, also Li Changhe’s colleagues.

They were all dead, killed by the enemy, their bodies defiled. This was done to infuriate the opponent.

"You succeeded, you bastard!" Li Changhe’s gaze moved upwards, on the city wall, he saw the figures standing there. As well as the face that looked extremely similar to his own.

On the city wall, Xue Shen seemed to notice Li Changhe’s gaze. He subtly raised his hand, as if in invitation.

Inviting him to participate in this gamble of the gods.

"Come on, Original Body. I’m waiting for you right here." His lips moved to form these words.

The Azure Flame surged, Li Changhe held out his Jet Mo Blade which already had curled edges.

"I’m coming to kill you right now! Follow me and charge!"

"Charge! For the Great Tang!" Behind him, the one-armed Hu Hui roared: "Follow General Li Ba and charge!"

"Charge!"

"Fight to the death, no retreat!"

"For the Great Tang!"

"For General Li Ba!"

Hu Hui roared, waving the battle flag in his hand.

"Charge!"

The soldiers roared, their chainsaws revved, their horses neighed,

They charged towards the enemy that outnumbered them by tens of times.

This fight was destined to end. They were all going to die in this battle.

Many soldiers were already in tears, but they knew, their deaths would not be in vain.

They intended to use their own deaths to cover for the Exotic people’s assassination attempt on Xue Shen!

They had placed all of their hopes on the heroes, indifference to life or death at this point, they feared nothing at this moment!

"Charge!"

Warriors from the battle group, like a sharp sword, stab decisively into the bloody tide.

Blood splattered, cries of woe rang out.

Li Changhe activated [Breath of Thunder] and transformed into a bolt of lightning, darting forward through the blood tide.

[Physical Strength Value: 102/130]

[Energy Value: 64/100]

He was striving to control consumption for the upcoming battle.

Swinging the Mo Blade, his edge-battered Mo Blade sliced several Chaos minions in two.

The screams from behind were continuous, but the heavy footsteps of the armored warriors and the trotting of the Auxiliary Army’s horses were becoming fewer and fewer.

Li Changhe had no idea how many people were still following him, or how many were still fighting.

Was Brother Dong behind him still alive?

Was the girl in the city still alive?

Was North Desert’s box still alive?

Was Bai Luohe from the Eastern Sea still alive?

Earth Knight, Chen Yu, Moon God... were they all still alive?

Li Changhe didn’t know. He dared not even check the [Friends List].

He was scared. He was afraid that the calmness he desperately upheld might be lost.

One hundred meters away from the city wall!

Seventy meters!

Fifty meters!

"Take care, General!" Hu Hui’s roar came from behind, he was supposed to follow Li Changhe, but his voice grew further away: "Charg..."

Then, a black battle flag swiftly flew over from behind, directly piercing the chests of two Chaos minions, slanting to the ground, clearing the final obstructions for his General.

Li Changhe didn’t look back, arcs of electricity erupted from his body, and he leapt, stepping on the top of the battle flag.

The battle flag bending sharply, then instantaneously rebounded, sending him into the air.

In mid-air, he drew out the Abyssal Whisper mechanical bow and the Necromancer Parchment.

A massive six-pointed star Array appeared in the sky; infinite power descended alongside it.

Li Changhe could feel a gentle touch like that of a girl’s hand in his fingers and palms. The sealed Magic Armor Sword was now gripped in his hands.

Sword as an arrow, pointed at Xue Shen. Fifty meters apart, the arrow was loosed!

The slush and thick blood on the ground morphed into a water huge sword, like a sky-covering tsunami, heading directly towards Xue Shen.

"Grace, ten thousand sacrifices!" Before Xue Shen could act, one of his comrades charged the huge sword, flinging out a huge red Spear of Light with his hand.

That was a powerful attack unleashed with ten thousand people as sacrifices. It contained the divine might of the Evil God, enough to destroy the Holder in one strike.

The water giant sword was pierced by the Spear of Light, and it transformed into splashes of water scattered in the sky.

The leaping figure also disappeared without a trace.

"Died by the Grace Spear?" He thought to himself. His task was to protect Xue Shen.

For this, the White King had given him the Evil God’s Grace Spear.

Even though, using it against the character named Li Ba might invite the dissatisfaction of Xue Shen or even the Evil God.

But facing the Holder’s all-out attack, he had no other choices.

However, in the moment when he was about to speak, he felt a severe pain in his neck...

A figure, stepping on the falling droplets of water, climbed onto the city wall.

He pulled the Mo Blade from the Chaos Believer’s neck, shaking off the blood on it.

Li Changhe had never expected that the strike from the Magic Armor could kill Xue Shen who was being protected by the Evil God. The previous sword was only to facilitate his [Water Walking] to get upon the city wall.

It’s just that, too high a price had to be paid to get up here.
