509: Strong battle array

“That’s enough.”

In the valley, Wang Chen silently gripped the longsword at his side, seeing that Ice Purity and the Rampaging Bear King’s battle had reached a “stalemate.”

In his perception, a large amount of unknown magical energy fluctuations were approaching the valley.

Clearly, the people sent by the Flourishing Flower Legion were about to arrive.

And there were more people than he had imagined.

Judging by the number of those magical energy fluctuations alone, it was roughly equivalent to two thousand-man teams.

“The Prosperity Legion really thinks highly of me!”

“If they pull out two thousand-man teams, they’ll only have seven thousand-man teams left. Excluding those guarding the camp, they’ll have a maximum of six thousand-man teams worth of strength.”

“Eleven to six, almost double the numerical difference. If Senior Brother Lin and the others still can’t win this, then they might as well find a crooked-neck tree to hang themselves from.”

Thinking playfully to himself, Wang Chen quietly sent a signal to Lin Chunzhi with his personal communicator, then he propped himself up with his sword, pretending to be weak.

“Ice Purity, move aside. I need to make myself look more miserable to lure those Little Mouse into action.”

Issuing an order to Ice Purity through the contract, Wang Chen moved his feet, and his body shot out like lightning.

Instant Sword!

He created trails of afterimages in the air, and in the next second, he arrived beside the Rampaging Bear King, thrusting his longsword heavily.

With a tearing sound!

The sharp longsword pierced into the Rampaging Bear King’s eye, directly penetrating out from the back of its head.

At the same time, the magical energy wrapped around the longsword vibrated violently, turning the Rampaging Bear King’s already limited brain into mush.

“Roar, roar, roar!!”

As Wang Chen retracted his longsword, the Rampaging Bear King only managed to let out a mournful roar before its body fell powerlessly, heavily crashing to the ground.

With one sword strike, the Level 190 Rampaging Bear King turned into a corpse.

However, at this moment, Wang Chen was also “not feeling well”!

Before Ice Purity flew over to catch him, he spat out a mouthful of tomato juice, and his entire body fell downwards, crashing onto the Rampaging Bear King’s corpse.

“Holy crap!”

Ice Purity, who had been sprayed in the face with tomato juice, widened her eyes.

Good heavens!

Master, you really know how to play!

Her eyes rolled, and then she also let out a weak cry, her flapping wings paused, and her body shrunk while falling downwards.

She landed with a thud on Wang Chen’s stomach.

“Oh my!”

Wang Chen, who was pretending to be weak, was almost genuinely knocked out by that blow.

“Do you know how heavy you are right now?”

Wang Chen subtly pulled Ice Purity off his stomach and asked through gritted teeth.

“Master… what… are you… saying?”

“So tired… I can’t hear clearly…”

The little guy directly feigned ignorance, looking utterly weak, speaking in broken sentences.

This made Wang Chen feel quite helpless.

If it weren’t for the special circumstances, he really wanted to roll the little guy into a ball and torment her.

...

...

In the distance.

Kaga Kyoichiro and the others cautiously restrained their aura, their gazes fixed on the two figures below.

However, after Wang Chen and the Ice Saint Dragon fell from the sky, revealing their utterly weak appearance, Kaga Kyoichiro’s aura fluctuated.

“Can’t even maintain their combat state anymore?”

“It seems the Ice Saint Dragon has truly exhausted all its strength.”

“And Wang Chen…”

“He only made one sword strike, then spat blood and fell. It seems his injuries are more severe than imagined.”

Looking at the utterly weak Wang Chen in the valley, who couldn’t even stand up, Kaga Kyoichiro’s face showed conflicted emotions.

Now, it seemed to be the best opportunity to kill Wang Chen.

As long as they activated their battle formation and attacked, they might be able to kill him on the spot with one strike.

If successful, even if most of the credit was distributed among the Legion’s high-ranking officials, the remainder would be enough for him to exchange for resources to advance to Seven-Turn or even Eight-Turn.

“Should I do it or not?”

Conflicted in his heart, Kaga Kyoichiro clenched and unclenched his fists repeatedly. After many repetitions, a ruthless look appeared on his face.

“Do it!”

“Fortune favors the bold. This is my only chance to obtain resources for advancing to Eight-Turn. If I miss it, it will never happen again.”

Thinking silently, Kaga Kyoichiro gradually made up his mind.

After a Awakener reaches Six-Turn, each promotion not only requires a massive amount of experience points but also a large amount of resources to perform a ritual and make sacrifices to the Divine Stone, which is the world’s will.

Kaga Kyoichiro knew very well that his own potential was limited. Without earth-shattering Credit, he would likely remain a Six-Turn for the rest of his life.

Now, it was his only chance.

Previously, with the situation unclear, he dared not take risks or stake his life, but now that even the Ice Saint Dragon was utterly weak, if he hesitated any longer, he would be letting himself down too much!

Having made his decision, Kaga Kyoichiro made a gesture to those behind him.

Instantly, everyone in the hundred-man team became excited.

“Prepare!”

“Battle formation, rise!”

With a low shout, Kaga Kyoichiro and his soldiers’ magical energy surged simultaneously.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

In an instant, this magical energy flowed through everyone, directly connecting them into a single entity.

Kaga Kyoichiro, at the very front, saw his aura rise frantically, instantly breaking through the Six-Turn limit.

“Kill!”

The next second, Kaga Kyoichiro took a step forward, and the others behind him also moved, charging into the valley like a war chariot.

“Wang Chen, die!!”

During the Charge, the strength of his subordinate soldiers was continuously extracted by Kaga Kyoichiro, transforming into a gigantic blade light that struck out directly.

The aura emanating from this blade light was extremely powerful; the strong winds in the valley were compressed and solidified, and the air in its path was sliced into black lines.

The power of this strike could rival the full-strength attack of a Level 200 Seven-Turn Professional.

If it landed, a mountain peak would be split in half.

“Is this the power of a battle formation?”

“Truly formidable!”

Wang Chen’s eyes flashed with surprise when he saw this scene.

This was the first time he had witnessed the power of a battle formation. Earlier, when he was being hunted by the Blood Clan in the Eternal Forest, that Blood Clan squad wanted to form a formation, but he had disrupted their formation beforehand.

It has to be said.

The power exceeded his expectations.

The vast majority of the hundred-man team were Rank 4 Awakeners, yet under the command of ten 5th Rank and one Six-Turn, they could unleash combat power comparable to a Seven-Turn Professional.

Wang Chen felt that this strike, at this moment, even if his deputy Li Yujiu came, he wouldn’t dare to take it head-on.

And if it were a thousand-man team or even a Legion forming a battle formation…

“When I annihilated Inao Kazuhisa’s thousand-man team, I truly used a trick.”

Wang Chen felt a little fortunate at this moment.

If Inao Kazuhisa’s thousand-man team had formed a battle formation at that time, he would have been unable to confront them head-on and would probably have been forced to use many of his life-saving trump cards.

“Next, when I encounter those two Sakura Country thousand-man teams, it seems I’ll have to fight a war of attrition with them.”

Pondering, Wang Chen moved his feet, dodging the blade light, intending to first test the power of the battle formation with the hundred-man team in front of him.
