Chapter 567: Showdown

Chapter 567: Showdown

A strange looking army!

This was the first feeling the Dark Eagle Army’s officers had.

Miracle City’s army advanced forward, but they didn’t make any sounds at all. They didn’t have war drums, bugles, or signal flags. There was no transmission of orders through the army, but they kept moving forward at a quick and steady pace.

Not to mention bumpkins from the Eagle Burial Kingdom, even the most erudite scholars of the continent wouldn’t be able to understand this.

But if one had enough understanding of Miracle City, they would know that this was not a difficult matter for Miracle City because each soldier’s helmet had a transmission device. The airborne units could directly send orders to the soldiers and each group had a mobile command unit, where only the commanders could use the communication channel.

From the whole, to the unit, to the individuals, there were three channels controlling them. It basically guaranteed that the Miracle City soldiers perfectly followed their orders.

Quickly, rapidly, and timely.

No matter what change occurred on the battlefield, every soldiers would be able to receive the situation. Any fragile strategy under this kind of quick communication lost all value, so it all depended on pure force!

The Dark Eagle Army still found something off.

For an army, especially one that was attacking, the vanguard was the most important elite troops. It had to have enough impact and penetrative might.

A sword that wasn’t sharp enough, how could it pierce through its target?

With the same logic, if an army’s point wasn’t sharp enough, how could it break through the formation of the enemies?

If the first round didn’t have enough shock, the following battle formation would be greatly weakened!

Miracle City’s army’s vanguard were a few rows of small teams, with each team having one ogre and four barbarians. The ogres had a special giant shield in one hand with a large Source Energy Cannon in the other pointing forward. The barbarians were all armed with destructive heavy firearms and were standing behind the ogres.

This equipment looked dumb and heavy, how could it be used as a vanguard?

The Dark Eagle King wasn’t negligent at all!

The Dark Demon King understood the situation more than anyone, he even knew of the battle of the Southern Summer Country’s Four State Lakes. He also knew that these humans had some kind of weapons, so why would they fight hand to hand if they had these weapons?

Not to mention that based on the movements of the soldiers, Miracle City’s Berserker Army were all well trained. This kind of dangerous aura was not something a motley crew could give off!

“Something is strange!” The Dark Demon King gave an order to a general behind him, “Bring the wolf cavalry vanguard and try to attack from the left. See how strong they are!”

“Understood!”

This general was a renowned Eagle Burial Kingdom senior general, even having a higher position than the previous Fang King. An experienced general wouldn’t miss the dangerous aura, so he didn’t question the Dark Eagle King’s cautious methods at all.

The black giant wolf cavalry army flew out like an arrow.

The Demon Wolf Cavalry was the most common cavalry of the Eagle Burial Kingdom, but the Dark Eagle Army’s Demon Wolf Cavalry was different. These Demon Wolves were all level two demon beasts. They could charge out at the speed of sound and no one could catch them with their mobility.

With an order!

The ten thousand Demon Wolves were like a wave of locusts, separating from the army. They charged quickly without a sound, just like shears cutting across the grass of the prairies!

Fast!

Too fast!

This army quickly headed to the back left of the army and their goal was to scatter the enemy’s formation. As long as there was chaos with the Forest Alliance army, giving the Dark Eagle King a chance, his army would charge forward and defeat them without caring what kind of mysteries they had!

Naturally the Berserker army wasn’t blind.

When these swift and dangerous wolf cavalry moved, the Berserker army also received their orders. There was no chaos with their ranks as they just charged faster at the Eagle Burial Kingdom army, as if they completely ignored the attack of the wolf cavalry.

This was because they didn’t need to divert their attention for this fly!

The cannon barrels at the center of each square turned as wild energy began to gather.

Hong, hong, hong!

Several energy shells instantly fired!

When the wolf cavalry were about to hit, the energy cannons created heavy casualties among them and the entire formation fell into chaos.

The Dark Eagle King’s face fell.

The Eagle Burial Kingdom already had some information, especially on the dazzling performance of the Source Energy Cannons. They never thought that in less than a year, Miracle Commerce’s Source Energy Cannons had already improved this much.

Not only did the firing range and might increase by several times, they were now Battle Cars!

It was no wonder they attacked with this kind of formation. Just with the powerful might of the Source Energy Cannons, it was not something a vanguard could match, so Miracle City’s army didn’t need a strong vanguard at all. Now matter how strong the enemy’s defenses were, how many times could they withstand this kind of bombardment?

The Dark Eagle King angrily roared out, “Sound the drums, full force attack!”

The Eagle Burial Kingdom’s war drums clearly sounded out ten times and each sound seemed to be attacking one’s heart. The war drums were made of high level demon beast pelt, therefore it had a spiritual frightening effect. When several hundred drums rang out, it rang through the air and roared into the heavens.

“Wu!”

Several long dragon bone bugles rang out, instantly shaking up the air. The Earth Dragon army and Kodo Beast army all charged out at the Miracle City army.

The Dark Eagle King was very clear that it was best to charge head on with this kind of army. Although their weapons were strong, there were still limits to them. Once both sides were fighting in close range, no matter how strong the cannons were or how fierce the guns were, how much use would they be?

But was it easy to approach?

Several dozen Source Energy Cannons fired at the same time!

The beautiful and dazzling energy cannons created large holes in the ground and each hole that appeared was the disappearance of several hundred soldiers. Miracle Commerce’s Source Energy Cannons were already using the second generation energy. This kind of equipment being used on the Battle Cars were restricted, so they weren’t as strong, but they were still able to kill experts in the 5th-6th True Spirit Layer.

Even if this was the elite army of the Eagle Burial Kingdom, how many of them were in the 5th-6th True Spirit Layer?

When the Dark Eagle King saw the terrifying might of the Source Energy Cannons, seeing the elite soldiers of the Eagle Burial Kingdom disappear under beams of light, his eyes almost sent out flames, “Charge, everyone charge! These weapons can only attack from range, it’ll be our world once we get close!”

The Eagle Burial Kingdom army was very brave. Even in this kind of situation, they charged into the cannon fire. Now they were very close to the Miracle City army.

The timing was right!

The airborne units were sent out!

The Eagle Burial Kingdom was rich in airborne units, having very agile eagle warriors and powerful Dual Legged Dragon Cavalry. They were like a dark cloud as they flew over Miracle City’s army.

Miracle City’s Source Energy Cannons were very powerful, but their disadvantages were very clear. They were more suited for siege fighting, which meant dealing with stationary targets, so they’re very suited to being placed in large scale battles. But once they met airborne targets or targets that were very close, the Source Energy Cannons would lose their effectiveness.

“Kill, kill!”

Most of the Eagle Burial Kingdom soldiers were Awakened Soul Cultivators, so they were currently releasing their source spirits. All kinds of power began to fly out at the Miracle City army.

When Miracle City was faced with the attack of the visibly bigger army, they weren’t scared at all. The front row ogres raised their shields at the same time and something that stunned the Eagle Burial Kingdom soldiers occurred. Light was released from the shields of these ogres and this light came together, instantly forming an incomparably large barrier!

Hong, hong, hong!

The attacks of the Eagle Burial Kingdom soldiers landed on this giant barrier, with most of them dissipating and some of the more powerful attacks leaving marks on the barrier.

The second row, the third row! Miracle City’s army released three layers of large scale energy shields!

What was going on here?

The Eagle Burial Kingdom generals were stunned. Barriers weren’t rare on battlefields, but most barriers were very troublesome to set up, so they were mostly used for defending cities or strongholds. For this kind of mobile defensive barrier, it was something rarely seen!

“Airborne units! Circle around!”

Although Miracle City’s barrier was very strong, it did not cover all around them. The Eagle Burial Kingdom airborne units crossed over the barriers to attack.

Who would have thought that at this time, the soldiers would raise their arm guards and release a layer of light. They blocked most of the Eagle Burial Kingdom’s attacks.

Other than the giant barrier.

Each soldier had a portable barrier?

This time even the Dark Eagle King was shocked, he even suspected that he was in a nightmare. Even the richest family on the continent only gave each soldier a defensive talisman. The defenses of these talismans were very limited and they had to be used with Symbol Techniques.

This scene had never been seen before.

Each soldier had their own protective barrier that they could turn on and off at will. It was quick, convenient, and most importantly, the defenses were very strong!

The Dark Eagle Army did not have time to give any more orders before Miracle City’s army attacked. Several thousand heavy firearms opened fire, instantly filling the sky with light, creating a wild storm of energy bullets. Those Dual Legged Dragons with powerful bodies had now been turned into living targets!

Hong, hong, hong!

The portable Source Energy Cannons were also fired!

Giant beasts were blown up one after the other!

Although they had the absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the Dark Eagle Army encountered an one sided slaughter. They couldn’t break through the firm defenses, being routed outside the formation, undergoing the wild baptism of the cannon fire!
