163: Chapter 163: All Flying? That makes it even easier to fight!

Looking at the dense red dots on the reconnaissance report, Xu Qin's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Good grief.

All flying units?

No ground troops?

"An extreme solo-build player?"

He blinked, and after confirming he hadn't misread it, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Are you trying to fight an air war with me?"

Xu Qin's hanging heart finally dropped, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

He rubbed his chin and began to ponder his strategy.

To be honest, the opponent having entirely air force units was actually quite cute.

Speaking of which, what advantages did flying troops have?

That would naturally be high mobility, high-speed raids, and ranged strikes.

Ground troops facing an air force was truly a dimensional reduction strike in the physical sense.

Because they couldn't hit them at all.

But this also had its disadvantages.

That was, air forces generally had relatively low health and weren't very high in defense,

much like the [Storm Wingguard], which only had 4,200 health points,

once locked down by ranged attacks, it was basically a one-shot kill the moment they showed their heads.

And what did he have?

One thousand floating bone sentries,

over three thousand Skeleton Vultures,

as well as the tens of thousands of Ranged Troops led by Chuan Yun and Tietang,

and of course, the fiercest Bone Dragon army.

"Friend, you've chosen the wrong opponent."

Xu Qin opened the communication panel and swaggeringly replied with a message.

[Xu Qin: Sorry, I do not accept your surrender.]

After sending it, he directly closed the communication.

Aisela: ?

Xu Qin stood up, walked over to the Watchtower, and opened the command panel.

He began deploying his entire army.

"Tian Ming."

"Here!"

"Pull all thirty thousand Bone Beasts to the southeast border, lined up at the very front. Follow them with Chuan Yun and Tietang's Ranged Troops."

"Longgu, lead the Bone Dragon legion and stand by. Wait for my command to take off."

"The Iron Rhinoceros formation, follow behind the Bone Beasts and get ready to Charge."

"All Sand Rats go underground and tunnel toward the opponent's continent."

The commands were issued one by one.

Boom, boom, boom!

The Undead Army of the entire Boundless Domain marched with neat strides toward the southeast border.

Thirty thousand Stitched Bone Beasts formed three rows,

blocking two hundred meters behind the southeast border.

Behind the Bone Beasts were the Skeleton Elf Archers led by Chuan Yun, and the Undead Musketeers under Tietang's command.

Iron-Rhinoceros-type Bone Beasts squatted on the flanks of the Ranged Troops.

Two thousand Skeleton Sand Rats burrowed underground, silently advancing toward the opponent's continent.

The troops completed their deployment in a short span of five minutes.

Only then did Xu Qin open the regional map and look at the drifting continent.

There were still 12 minutes until contact.

"I wonder if there are many resources on that continent…" Xu Qin muttered softly to himself.

...

Twelve minutes later.

Boom!!!

The two continents collided together.

The earth beneath their feet shook violently.

Ding!

[Territory War Triggered!]

[Rules:]

[1. Both territories have...]

Too lazy to look, Xu Qin directly closed the prompt.

He looked at the external monitoring screen.

The edge of the opposing continent had already appeared within his field of view.

The grayish-white rock strata spliced together with the black gravel on his side, forming a clear dividing line.

And above the dividing line...

were dense Storm Wingguards and Thunderers.

The conspicuous flapping of wings surged like a tide, rising in flocks from the depths of the opposing continent and pouncing toward his side.

Xu Qin just made a rough count—good grief, nearly ten thousand air force units?

There were at least five thousand Storm Wingguards in the front row, followed by over three thousand Thunderers in the back.

And this was only the first wave.

"Ranged Troops, prepare!"

Xu Qin did not order the Ranged Troops to open fire.

He was waiting for the opponent to Charge.

Because the speed of the Storm Wingguards was extremely fast,

they could fly across the dividing line in less than thirty seconds,

therefore, once the opponent pounced toward the Bone Beast array at the border and began executing a dive, that would be the time to strike!

A split second passed in a flash.

Thirty seconds hadn't even arrived yet.

Swish, swish, swish, swish...

Hundreds of vanguard Wingguards flew above the Bone Beasts,

simultaneously folding their wings and extending their sharp claws to plummet from high altitude,

targeting the spines of the Bone Beasts directly.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

-3720!

-3720!

-3720!

First-strike damage doubled,

directly knocking away one-tenth of the Bone Beasts' health.

But the Bone Beasts did not fight back.

They raised their heads, just about to retaliate.

Only to see the Wingguards succeed in one strike, immediately pulling up and flying to an altitude of thirty meters to hover.

Following closely, the Thunderers in the rear arrived.

Chain Lightning!

Bzz, bzzzz...

Blue-white electric arcs cleaved down from high altitude,

and after hitting the front-row Bone Beasts, bounced back and forth among three surrounding units.

-3200!

-2560!

-2048!

...

This round of intensive attacks

directly broke the Bone Beasts' health-lock passive,

instantly killing a dozen or so Bone Beasts.

Boom, boom, boom!

Wraith Fury triggered!

The shattered Bone Beasts self-destructed on the spot, soul fires soaring into the sky.

But the explosion radius was only five meters,

while the Wingguards were at an altitude of thirty meters and couldn't be hit by the explosion at all.

Looking at the casualty numbers, Xu Qin sneered.

"Heh."

He was not in a rush.

Ding!

[Wraith Will Triggered: Currently 100 units fallen, attack power of the entire army +1%.]

This was precisely what Xu Qin was waiting for.

"Chuan Yun, Tietang."

"Open fire!"

The command was issued.

Behind the Bone Beast array, twenty thousand Skeleton Elf Archers raised their bows simultaneously.

Soul energy arrows condensed, and they fired in a volley!

Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish...

Twenty thousand Shadow Bolts rose into the sky, shooting toward the group of Wingguards at an altitude of thirty meters.

-1134!

-1134!

-1134!

...

Although the single-shot damage wasn't high,

when twenty thousand arrows hit simultaneously, the stacked damage instantly soared.

With one round of volley,

nearly two hundred Storm Wingguards plummeted from the sky.

Immediately following that, Tietang's Musketeer squad opened fire.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Fifteen thousand bone-soul muskets sounded in unison.

-1140!

-1140!

-1140!

The Storm Wingguards only had 4,200 health points,

and a single round of ranged volley directly took away a large swath of them.

However, the opponent's reaction was also very fast.

Seeing that Xu Qin had Ranged Troops on his side, they immediately ordered the Wingguard group to disperse, starting to circle at high speed to evade the arrows.

But the moment they dispersed...

"Longgu. Attack!"

Arooo!!!

On the Combat Readiness Platform of the Floating City, Longgu spread its wings and soared into the sky.

Behind him, seventy-eight Bone Dragons followed closely, carrying the harsh vibrating sound of bone wings as they charged straight at the Wingguard group.

What Longgu targeted were the Thunderers in the back row.

That was the opponent's core output.

With 8,800 health points, they were twice as thick as the Wingguards.

But in front of the fast-charging Longgu, they were no different from paper.

Swoosh!

A claw went down.

-28000!

Bang!

The Thunderer was instantly killed.

Afterwards...

the Bone Dragon group charged into the Thunderer formation,

whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

dragon breath spewed in all directions.

Boom!

A sheet of flames swept across,

and a dozen or so Thunderers plummeted simultaneously.

The formation in the sky was disrupted by the charging Bone Dragon army.

Seeing this, the Wingguards on that side immediately changed their attack target, preparing to reinforce the Thunderers.

But the moment they were about to increase their flight altitude,

a new round of volley from the ground Ranged Troops struck.

Bang, bang, bang!

Another wave of Wingguards plummeted.

At the same time...

the Combat Readiness Platform opened,

and Skeleton Vultures also surged out from within the Floating City.

Three thousand vultures threw themselves recklessly at the Wingguard group,

pecking directly at the wings and eyes of the Wingguards!

The Wingguards had no choice but to attack the pouncing vultures,

bang, bang, bang!

and the casualties of the vultures began to increase.

But the next second.

Boom!

Wraith Fury!

The self-destruction of the vultures exploded in mid-air,

taking two or three surrounding Wingguards away in one wave.

Quite a few Wingguards wanted to dodge, but the vultures didn't give them a chance to dodge at all.

This bunch of skeletons hooked on tightly with their sharp claws and just kept pecking, completely not caring whether they would die or not.

Furthermore, the vultures flying in from the rear drilled straight into the piles of Wingguards.

Shattered? It didn't matter.

Blowing up one breaks even, blowing up two is a huge profit.

They only knew how to execute their master's commands!

The air battlefield completely fell into a chaotic melee.

Meanwhile, on the ground...

"Iron Rhinoceros, Charge."

Xu Qin ordered loudly,

"Let this solo-build player know how they died!"
