Wang Chen did not dare to delay and immediately prepared to fight.
When he walked out of the tent, he saw a terrifying chill rushing toward the 93rd Doomsday Fortress from afar. It was obvious that the Winter War God who had retreated had made a comeback.
“General, we are ordered to defend the 14,789th defense line until the next rotation,” Chu Ding hurriedly reported.
“Gather everyone and take action immediately,” Wang Chen shouted.
Soon, the Heavenly Wolf Battalion reached the defensive line.
An army of Ifrits, which had suffered heavy casualties in the previous battle, was being torn down from the city walls.
“Let’s teach those ice blocks a lesson,” the Flame Demon Commander said to
Wang Chen before leaving unwillingly.
When the Heavenly Wolf Battalion finished their deployment, the Winter War
God’s team finally rushed over.
Countless Frost Elves riding on Ice Butterflies soared in the sky while the ferocious Snow Demon army on the ground fearlessly attacked the Doomsday Fortress.
“Destroy them! Attack!”
The Flame Demon General’s furious roar resounded in the sky above the
Doomsday Fortress.
The war machines on the fortress immediately roared and released all kinds of attacks that bombarded the Stronghold formation.
However, the attackers still managed to get close.
Frost rose from the ground and formed a huge slope in front of the fortress, allowing the Snow Demons to climb up the thousand-meter-tall city wall without any effort.
“Everyone, only long-range attacks are allowed!” Wang Chen shouted as he looked at the Snow Demons and Frost Elves.
The pale Crown of the Dead appeared above his head. In this battle-hardened land, there was no lack of dead people.
A large number of undead were awakened and charged towards the
Stronghold’s soldiers.
With the advantage in numbers, the Heavenly Wolf Battalion easily stopped the enemy.
Wang Chen did not try to be a hero and rushed into the enemy formation. He knew very well that the Doomsday Warriors did not have the upper hand in this battle.
Otherwise, how could the aggressive Doomsday party wait for the other side to attack?
In the sky, five incomparably terrifying auras were confronting each other.
On the Doomsday Fortress’ side were the Flame Demon General and King Shenyu while two new experts had appeared on the Stronghold’s frontline.
[Pterosaur Sky God (Mythical)]
[Level: 500]
[Greenwood (Mythical)]
[Level: 500]
The reinforcements that had woken up were equally powerful, but they were obviously only temporarily transferred. It was unlike the Winter War God who could restrain the Flame Demon General.
Soon, the two sides began a great battle.
The Winter War God dealt with the Flame Demon General alone while the other two joined forces to deal with King Shenyu.
However, it was obvious that there were differences between the same level. King Shenyu was able to fight against two experts of the same level by himself, yet he was still not at a disadvantage.
The battle lasted for an entire day. The high-level battlefield was still
undecided.
Wang Chen’s undead army died twice before they could withstand the opponent’s fearless attack.
“Retreat.”
This time, the Stronghold’s frontline also retreated.
Boom!
As a huge ice wall fell from the sky, the battlefield was instantly divided into
two halves.
The Stronghold’s main force retreated calmly, and the Doomsday Warriors had a tacit understanding. They only killed the warriors who landed on the side of the ice wall and let the others leave.
in the following half a month, the Stronghold’s frontline launched continuous attacks, but each time, they would retreat after fighting for a day.
Such a high-intensity battle caused the Tyrannical Ghost Clan to suffer heavy losses. More than one-tenth of their warriors died.
The situation of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion fared slightly better. With Wang Chen’s undead army around, they had a lot less pressure on them, and their losses were less than one percent.
This also made the Tyrannical Ghost Clan completely convinced by Wang Chen. After all, if not for Wang Chen, many of them would not have lived so long.
“Why are these guys fighting like this?” Wang Chen was very puzzled. Relying on the geographical advantage, Doomsday Warriors always won a small victory in every attack and defense.
The high-ranking commander on the other side definitely wouldn’t have missed this, but he was still desperately attacking.
That evening, the Stronghold’s frontline launched another attack.
Wang Chen thought that the battle would end as usual, but this time was different.
King Shenyu suddenly exerted his strength and killed Greenwood.
As a result, the Doomsday Warriors had a complete advantage.
The pursuit of the stronghold’s scattered troops lasted for 3,000 kilometers before it ended.
However, this way, their losses were even greater than before.
Thus, after the battle, the Heavenly Wolf Battalion and the other troops finally welcomed their first change of defense.
After bringing the troops back to the barracks, Wang Chen immediately went to look for Gerri.
Seeing Wang Chen, Gary was overjoyed.
“General Wang Chen, you’re finally here. My warehouse is almost full!” He looked excited.
After half a month of continuous battles, he had accumulated many high-level corpses.
-Very good. I want them all,” Wang Chen said in a deep voice. He had earned tens of millions of battle credits during this period of time. It should be enough to collect the corpses.
“There are about 30,000 that meet your requirements. There are also a few Level 450 Legendary corpses. I guarantee that you will be satisfied,” Gary said as he brought Wang Chen into the warehouse.
“Are they all from the Greenwood Clan?” Wang Chen swept his gaze over the area, feeling somewhat surprised.
Those high-level legendary corpses belonged to the Greenwood Clan under the command of the Divine Lord Greenwood.
From the looks of it, the Greenwood Clan was really unlucky.
“We Ifrits have completely countered these wooden blocks. Aren’t they courting death by coming here? Today, Divine Lord Greenwood was killed by the king of the Tyrannical Ghost Clan. This clan is probably going to decline in the future!
“It won’t be long before the entire race’s high-end combat strength will be wiped out.” Gerri gloated.
“How many battle credits?” Wang Chen asked.
“We’re old friends. Eight million!” Gerri’s eyes shone with excitement.
With his strength, he wouldn’t have been able to obtain so many battle credits even if he fought on the battlefield for ten years.
“Sure.” Wang Chen did not argue.
After swallowing these corpses, there was a high chance that the Bloodborne Armor would be upgraded to Rank 8. His strength would increase by a step.
After the transaction, Wang Chen casually asked, “Do you know what to do with Divine Lord Greenwood’s corpse?”
“The Greenwood Clan has been thoroughly studied. Even the remains of an expert of this level have no special use. I heard that after confirming that there’s no problem, it will be thrown into the Life Furnace as an energy source. “I reckon that this fortress will not lack energy in the next few years,” Gerri said.
“Such a waste of heavenly resources?” Wang Chen could not help but be shocked.
If he could devour the corpse of the Divine Lord Greenwood, he would be able to unleash the combat power of King Shenyu with the enhancement of his Destruction Stance.
At that time, he would be able to use the Great Destruction Chaotic Divine Lightning to sneak attack and definitely kill an expert of this level.
“Can you get it?” Wang Chen asked excitedly.
Gerri shook his head. “There’s no way they’ll let us petty officers handle
corpses of that level.”
Hearing this, Wang Chen felt a little disappointed. However, he believed that it was not entirely impossible to obtain the corpse.
“But before that, I have to have some bargaining chips!
Wang Chen and Gary bade farewell, and Wang Chen returned to the Heavenly Wolf Battalion’s encampment. He immediately began to devour the corpses.
He ingested them for three whole days, and soon, he had absorbed more than 30,000 high-level corpses.
His strength increased by leaps and bounds once again, and all four of his attributes broke through the ten-million level, reaching a new level.
[Basic Attributes: Strength (18,771,366), Stamina (18,781,058), Agility (12,133,388), Spirit (16,192,553), Charisma (100)]
“This Doomsday Battlefield is simply my heaven.”
As for the Bloodborne Armor, it had also been successfully upgraded to Rank 8, awakening an ability called the God-slaying Blood Blade.
This ability provided him with a powerful melee weapon, the God-slaying Blood Blade, which greatly increased his destructive power. However, for now, this weapon was just icing on the cake.
‘Hmm, I have to go to the capital to ask for that corpse,’ Wang Chen thought to himself and immediately set off to find King Shenyu.
However, it was naturally not that easy to meet such an expert.
“General Wang Chen, the King Shenyu is currently meeting with the Flame Demon General. If you have something to speak to him about, please come back later,” the Tyrannical Ghost Clan warrior on duty calmly said to Wang Chen.
The Heavenly Wolf Battalion had achieved remarkable results, but their losses were extremely low. In turn, all the Tyrannical Ghost Clan soldiers treated Wang Chen much better.
“I’m sorry, but this matter concerns the outcome of the battle. I have to meet with King Shenyu no matter what.”
Wang Chen did not retreat.
If he dragged it out until the corpse of the Divine Lord Greenwood was burned, he would have nowhere to cry!
