Chapter 401: Night Raid on the Kingdom’s Army
Levni shouted from atop the dragon.
In an instant.
The howls of magic beasts erupted from the outskirts of the camp, and this sound wasn’t coming from just one or two beasts.
It was produced by hundreds of magic beasts.
The sound rose and fell, echoing through the mountains and forests, causing the earth to resonate and tremble slightly.
Upon hearing the terrifying sound, the demon soldiers’ legs began to shake uncontrollably.
Bohilog suddenly felt his heart sink, looking around: “Where did Levni get such a large army from?”
Bohilog had sent quite a few spies to reconnoiter.
The reports they sent back all indicated that Halley Town was just a simple town with a population of only about 2,000 and no more than 300 soldiers.
How could they suddenly possess an army of magic beasts?
Moreover, how did Levni manage to tame these magic beasts? After all, neither humans nor demons had been able to solve the problem of controlling magic beasts.
“We don’t know either.”
“Could someone have suddenly come to her aid?”
“It’s useless to discuss this now, what should we do?”
The various lords chattered away.
Clearly, they hadn’t anticipated that a small place like Halley Town would dare to launch an attack on its own.
This was beyond expectation.
Normally, the weaker side would hunker down in the town, using the walls to fend off the large army.
Taking the initiative to attack would only expose one’s weaknesses.
But the opponent wasn’t playing by the rules.
At this point, Bohilog furrowed his brow, “What else can we do now? We’ve come this far, we can only win and not lose, otherwise we’ll all lose face when we return, and we’ll have thrown away the kingdom’s honor!”
At this moment, he had to press on, even if reluctantly.
Just then, a lord said: “Your Highness, they’ve summoned magic beasts! Moreover, Baron Feiha has already left.”
Baron Feiha’s vampire army made up about half of the kingdom’s flying units.
Now, with Feiha’s departure, the kingdom’s army might have less than 300 soldiers capable of flight, while the enemy had a dragon and a large number of giant eagles.
Bohilog calmly analyzed: “Don’t worry, we still have the advantage in numbers. Even with Baron Feiha gone, we still have 6,000 men.
Levni may be able to summon magic beasts, but the number can’t be large, otherwise we would have discovered such a large group of magic beasts earlier.
The fact that they were able to march under our noses is enough to show that their numbers aren’t great. As long as we hold firm, the chance for a counterattack is within reach.”
Another lord asked doubtfully, “What about the dragon?”
“I’ll deal with it myself!”
Bohilog said through gritted teeth. If he didn’t take on this tough job, the others would be even less likely to risk their lives for him.
At this moment, both sides were on the brink of conflict.
Luo Sheng was piloting an Argentinian giant eagle.
Behind him were Alice and Acoley, circling in the air. He wasn’t participating in this battle.
He was merely acting as an observer.
The fighting was left to Levni and Helena, which was more than enough.
At this moment.
Among the magic beast army.
Leading the charge were snow wolves, nearly 2 meters tall, much larger than even strong warhorses.
Especially since they were pack animals and extremely fast, they launched a direct charge towards the kingdom’s army.
“Awoo!”
“Awoo!”
The howls of the snow wolves rang out.
The other snow wolves howled in response, then plunged fiercely into the camp.
They began to maul any demon soldiers they encountered.
Many had never seen such a scene before, with dozens of snow wolves seemingly gone mad.
Constantly clawing and biting at the demon soldiers.
“Do we still have to fight?”
“Let’s run!”
The demon warriors had never seen such a bloody scene, with some snow wolves biting off the heads of demon soldiers.
The scene was too brutal, filling their hearts with fear.
Suddenly, from among the demon soldiers, several minotaur warriors rushed out, shouting loudly: “These are just a few wolves, and you’re all this scared!”
As he shouted.
He picked up a giant hammer and smashed a wolf open.
The minotaur continued to shout: “The prince said we must win this war! Their magic beast army is just trying to scare us… Charge with me!”
The minotaur warrior shouted loudly.
For a moment, the demon soldiers seemed to find their backbone.
Following behind the minotaur warriors, they joined in the attack against the snow wolves.
Both sides fought fiercely.
The minotaur warriors were tall, reaching nearly 2.5 meters, as tall as a single-story building.
Especially with their bulky forms, they could wield huge tree trunks and smash them directly at the snow wolves.
The snow wolves were agile, but that didn’t mean they possessed great strength.
The two sides fell into a sort of stalemate.
But the next moment.
Giant bears also emerged from behind the snow wolves.
The bears were even larger, standing as tall as the minotaur warriors when on all fours.
When they stood up, they were half a body taller than the minotaur warriors.
Although they moved slowly, their strength was even greater. With one swipe, they shattered the wooden hammers of the minotaur, and with another swipe, they swept away the surrounding demon warriors.
They worked in perfect coordination with the snow wolves.
How could the demon soldiers have ever seen such a battle?
Many watched as the minotaur warriors at the forefront fell one by one, becoming even more reluctant to advance.
“This is too brutal!”
“Where did Princess Levni find these monsters?”
The murmurs of the demon soldiers gradually rose, fear once again taking hold of their hearts.
Just as they were about to retreat.
The various lords also arrived among the troops, immediately boosting morale:
“Everyone, don’t be afraid. Our army has 6,000 men, we’re invincible. As long as we successfully kill our way to Halley Town, Prince Bohilog will reward each of you with 10 gold coins!”
In the current situation.
No words would have any effect.
Only money could inspire everyone’s morale.
Anyway, they could push the funds needed for the rewards onto Prince Bohilog later.
As soon as the lord finished speaking.
The demon army erupted with unprecedented vigor.
Their eyes were filled with visions of money. If they won this battle, everyone would be able to eat meat and drink wine to their heart’s content.
In a moment.
The demon soldiers charged fiercely towards the magic beasts.
Some demon soldiers possessed magic, and they directly used fireballs or fired crossbow bolts.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Dense arrows fell on the opposite side.
Snow wolves and giant bears began to suffer casualties, with many of the vanguard magic beasts falling dead.
But at the same time.
Other magic beasts appeared behind the snow wolves and giant bears.
There were huge white tigers, their snow-white fur serving as armor, especially their enormous fangs, as they plunged into the demon soldiers.
Biting frantically.
Several snow spirits also appeared.
They used ice spikes, which fell into the demon’s positions like cannonballs.
Besides splashing up large amounts of soil, they also took the lives of several demon soldiers.
Helena, positioned at the rear, seeing her subjects constantly falling.
Was equally filled with anger.
She immediately used her skills.
She had the ability to deprive ice elements, and could also release her own ice elements.
Especially earlier, by depriving the ice elements around Halley Town, Helena’s ice element reserves had become even more enormous.
“Those who wish to harm my subjects will be judged by the ice!”
The enraged Helena lit up her Tear of the Ice Sea.
Violent ice elements continuously emerged from the depths of the forest, slowly freezing the demon army’s main camp with thick layers of ice.
Thick ice formed under the feet of many demon soldiers.
A blizzard began to fall from the dark sky.
Many demon mages who were casting fire magic found their fireballs suddenly becoming smaller, their power also greatly diminished from before.
Occasionally, some magic apprentices found that their fireballs were extinguished before flying even 5 meters.
But on the opposite side, the magic beast army.
In the howling wind and snow, they became even more ferocious.
The snow wolves, originally covered in wounds, had their injuries frozen over, briefly regaining their vigor.
They pounced towards the demons even more fiercely.
And at this moment.
Levni was also riding the purple lizard dragon, diving down from high in the sky.
The purple lizard dragon opened its blood-filled maw, spraying a massive amount of venom from its mouth. On the ground, many demon soldiers who couldn’t escape in time.
Were hit directly by the venom.
The venom corroded everyone’s skin, then seeped into their blood, finally causing their bodies to rot and die.
Especially since the purple lizard dragon’s venom also carried high-voltage electricity.
While being poisoned by touching the venom, the demon soldiers also had to endure the paralysis brought by the high voltage.
Finally, they all fell to the ground one by one.
After the purple lizard dragon flew away.
The Argentinian giant eagles also dove down, extending their giant claws to wound large numbers of demon soldiers.
They even grabbed several people, throwing them high into the air.
