144: Chapter 144 Bloodbath, The Curtain Falls
Andrew could not understand.
However, he knew that he had no time left.
Given the strength displayed by this Human Race reinforcement army, it would not take long to wipe them out.
There were only two paths before them.
The first was for all the main armies to converge, gathering all their strength to contend with the reinforcement army.
Before the Level 6 armies on the north side of the territory were wiped out, at least the armies on the east and south sides could still merge together; that would be three million soldiers.
Of course, three million soldiers could not possibly contend with the reinforcement army.
At most, they could hold on for a while longer, avoiding being wiped out in a single blow, while waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
The second was to abandon all illusions and charge directly into the depths of Lin Xiao's territory.
Kill Lin Xiao and escape.
"Forget about the reinforcement army; only by killing Lin Xiao can we escape back."
"Unless you want to end up as a corpse lying in this territory, that is."
Andrew turned his head and said to Osmond.
Reinforcements did not exist.
As a commander of the Sin Race, Andrew was very clear that they were the final offensive force.
Even if the higher-ups of their respective races sensed that something was wrong, they would not be able to pull out enough manpower to save them in time.
That was a dead end.
The other path was different.
Even if Lin Xiao had Advanced world wonder, legendary grade heroes and Troop Types, and even Advanced Military Formation Technique, he was ultimately just a Level 5 Lord.
Facing their endless invasions, he was likely already exhausted to the extreme.
Especially that last wave of Level 6 armies; it must have caused heavy losses, perhaps even total annihilation, leaving only one or two heroes remaining.
Otherwise, why hadn't they seen the enemy's main army until now?
Why were there only these long-range harassment tactics?
The more Andrew thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
"Fine."
Under Andrew's explanation, Osmond quickly understood the key point and immediately agreed.
Just at this moment.
"Boom~"
A second incomparably terrifying explosion appeared on the north side of the territory.
"Lie Yan is finished."
Andrew and Osmond exchanged a glance.
Feeling the crisis that felt like thorns on their backs, they dared not hesitate in the slightest.
The two immediately gave the order for all Level 6 armies to charge toward the depths of Lin Xiao's territory.
Meanwhile, the Shadow Race Lord Rosalie on the north side of the territory also issued the same order.
It was definitely unrealistic for a million-strong army to move at the same time.
The speed would be too slow, and they would soon be caught up by the reinforcement army.
Therefore, the three million soldiers quickly split into more than a hundred Level 6 armies, each showcasing their abilities as they charged at full speed toward the depths of Lin Xiao's territory.
"Trying to escape? Keep dreaming."
The Human Race hero of the reinforcement army immediately noticed the actions of Andrew and the others.
He sneered, and the twenty-thousand-strong army instantly dispersed, turning into ten smaller squads.
These ten armies also formed Military Formation Techniques.
Although they could not compare to the original large-scale formation, they were still far more powerful than the invading Level 6 armies.
They caught up with the invading armies at an extremely fast speed, eliminating them one by one.
However, no matter how fast they killed, it was impossible to stop all the Level 6 armies.
Dozens of Level 6 armies brazenly charged into the hinterland of Lin Xiao's territory.
When passing by the outer Epic Grade barracks, these Level 6 armies attacked tentatively, but upon discovering they could not destroy them in a short time, they immediately bypassed these Epic Grade barracks without hesitation and headed straight for the central area.
To these Level 6 armies, the surrounding environment affected by the Epic Grade barracks posed little threat.
Lin Xiao did not choose to meet the enemy outside; instead, he chose a full-scale retreat and defense.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
The earth meteor cannon fired continuously.
Huge, blazing red fireballs slammed into the Level 6 armies, but they did not cause much damage; their Rank was too low.
Soon, these Level 6 armies reached the central area.
They did not delay at all and immediately launched a frenzied attack.
The gravity magic well activated.
An invisible wave swept across, and the external Level 6 armies instantly felt a weight on their bodies, their speed becoming sluggish.
The star dome barrier enveloped the entire central area.
The falling star magic tower also fired with full force.
High in the sky, stars plummeted down, crashing into the flying Troop Types within those Level 6 armies.
Other perfect-grade and rare grade defensive buildings also fired crazily, pouring all their attacks onto the enemy troops.
At this moment, the defensive buildings within Lin Xiao's territory were fully activated.
If it had been a Level 5 army or just a few Level 6 armies, they might have been able to withstand it for a short time.
But these were dozens of Level 6 armies.
Lin Xiao did not expect to rely solely on his territory's defenses to block the enemy; more importantly, it was the burst of power from his heroes and Troop Types.
All Troop Types entered a state of full-scale burst.
Countless terrifying attacks passed through the star dome barrier and were poured crazily into the enemy Ranks.
Even though they were all Level 6 armies, and some even consisted entirely of Epic Grade troops, they could not withstand such terrifying attacks, especially the attacks from several Legendary Hero units, which were terrifying to the extreme.
Every time an attack landed, it claimed the lives of a large number of enemy troops.
The Rank 4 star dome barrier could not withstand it for long; in the blink of an eye, the barrier was shattered, and the Black Armor Soldiers did not hesitate to activate Shared Fate, continuing to block the damage.
Before they were all wiped out, other Troop Types had already dealt tons of damage.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
The battle was tragic to the extreme.
Every moment, defensive buildings were smashed, and large numbers of Troop Types and heroes died in battle.
Both sides suffered.
"Impossible."
"How can you still have such powerful strength, so many troops?"
Andrew's eyes were bloodshot, unable to accept the cruel reality.
He never expected that a Level 5 Lord's territory would be so difficult to attack.
It could be said that for every step they Advanced, they had to pay a huge price in casualties.
That this battle would reach such a level was truly beyond his imagination.
"This is the end."
A cold snort came from behind.
Lord Gao Mu's reinforcement army had arrived.
Andrew and the others ultimately failed to seize the opportunity to breach Lin Xiao's territory and kill him.
Under the pincer attacks from both sides, these invading Level 6 armies quickly collapsed and were hunted down and killed one by one.
With the Eye of Truth present, even if they wanted to hide, it was just wishful thinking.
[Invasion ended. You have achieved victory. Starting settlement.]
[You have obtained a War Chest (Gold).]
[You have completely annihilated all invaders. You have obtained the information of the opposing lords, as well as one opportunity for revenge.]
...
The System notification sounds kept ringing in Lin Xiao's ears.
There were gold-grade War Chests, as well as silver-grade and bronze-grade ones.
"It's finally over."
Lin Xiao let out a long breath.
He had to admit that the full-scale attack of the Four Great Races was indeed too terrifying, leaving him in an extremely sorry state, and he had almost failed to hold on.
Fortunately, it was already over.
The Four Great Races had missed the best opportunity to strangle him.
After Lin Xiao digested the gains from the point mall and his territory's strength increased significantly, he would let the Four Great Races know what it meant to pay blood with blood and a tooth with a tooth.
