156: Chapter 156 Support

The Guard Army soldiers responsible for the magic energy assault cannons had undergone special training and were particularly skilled in speed; this was to ensure that even if a magic energy assault cannon was damaged, the magic energy crystals could still inflict casualties on the enemy.

However, just as they were preparing to sacrifice their lives for their country and take these Orcs with them, a massive transparent shield suddenly appeared above the Orc Allied Forces.

"Dammit! We clearly broke through it, how can there be another one? Was Zhao Yun and the others' sacrifice all for nothing?!"

"Why hasn't support arrived yet? We can't hold out much longer."

"Even without support, we must hold this final line of defense!"

"I'll go first in a moment, then Li Quan and Sun Le. The three of us will go first to break their shield,"

"The rest will be up to you brothers!"

"Roar!"

The few of them quickly formulated their next strategy, which was to go to their deaths.

Just as they were about to act, a slightly thin figure suddenly appeared and stood in front of them.

Then, with a wave of his right hand, Tang Mo sent the Divine Wrath Poison Lotus, which he had been charging for a long time, flying directly toward the Orc Allied Forces.

The black lotus passed directly through the Orc Allied Forces' Saint-grade defensive shield and exploded over their heads.

With a thunderous "Boom," black light instantly swallowed the Orc Allied Forces outside Dayi City.

Buzz—!

The explosion made the very air begin to roar,

And several Guard Army soldiers covered their ears in pain.

As the black light dissipated, the Orc Allied Forces outside the city had vanished, leaving only a massive crater.

The Guard Army soldiers, coming to their senses, were also dumbfounded by the scene before them.

The crater before them was many times larger than those left by the magic energy assault cannons. What kind of destructive power was needed to achieve this level?

Since the person before them had attacked the Orc Allied Forces, it meant he was one of their own.

As the only remaining Guard Army squad leader, Hu Tao took the initiative to step forward,

"Thank you for saving us, and thank you for saving Dayi City."

Tang Mo looked at the blood-covered Guard Army soldier before him, a sense of admiration welling up in his heart. "I should be the one saying thank you. Thank you for holding out for so long."

"Leave this place to me now. You all should go and treat your wounds."

Wei Shenchou and Zhan Wuji had rushed off upon learning that Chebman was leading an army to raid the Guard Army's General Headquarters, leaving Tang Mo in charge of defending Dayi City.

Turning back to Wei Shenchou's side,

After receiving the distress signal from the Commander-in-Chief, Wei Shenchou and Zhan Wuji had rushed there immediately.

However, by the time they arrived, Chebman had already led his troops to the city walls.

The Guard Army fought back with magic energy assault cannons, but facing the Orc Alliance's Saint-grade defensive shields, they had to use two to three magic energy crystals each time to completely shatter them.

Yet every time a shield was broken, Chebman's side would immediately put up another one.

Although Chebman didn't have many Saint-grade scrolls left, the Guard Army's magic energy crystals were also running low.

Relying on their defensive shields, the Orc Allied Forces began a fierce assault on the walls of Yulin City.

The formations arranged on the city walls were soon broken, and even the walls built with special materials began to crack, with the fissures continuing to grow.

Fortunately, Wei Shenchou arrived in time and used the Saint-grade offensive scrolls he had picked up while cleaning the battlefield to withstand the Orc Allied Forces' attack.

Zhan Wuji also didn't dare to hold back, activating a Saint-grade defensive scroll on his person to directly protect all of Yulin City inside.

The situation momentarily reached a stalemate,

With both sides throwing offensive scrolls at each other and using defensive scrolls whenever a shield broke.

Eventually, Wei Shenchou and Zhan Wuji ran out of scrolls, and the Guard Army's magic energy crystals were also completely depleted.

Chebman was also out of scrolls, and both sides had no choice but to engage in melee combat between Professionals.

Chebman transformed into a massive long-horned mammoth and charged directly toward Ye Shao and the others with great strides.

Relying on his three pieces of saint artifact-grade equipment, Chebman didn't care for the people of Great Xia at all.

If Chebman were allowed to charge into the Guard Army, it would cause massive losses.

Wei Shenchou took the lead and rushed out, intending to intercept Chebman.

Wei Shenchou's level was similar to Chebman's, but he was short one piece of saint artifact-grade equipment.

Do not underestimate this single piece of saint artifact-grade equipment; the boost it provided was immense.

Wei Shenchou soon fell into a disadvantage.

Seeing this, Si Yueze joined the fray, teaming up with Wei Shenchou to deal with Chebman.

In an instant, a scorching aura filled the field as Si Yueze transformed into a blue flaming figure and slammed hard into the giant mammoth's head.

A terrifying shockwave began to spread outward from the giant mammoth's head.

Marshall followed closely into the battlefield and was intercepted by Song Hai and Zhan Wuji's joint effort.

Then came the full-scale chaotic battle between the Orc Allied Forces and the Great Xia Guard Army.

Having been provided with supreme-grade equipment by Wei Shenchou, the Guard Army's overall strength was not much different from that of the Orc Professionals.

For a time, the sounds of shouting and wailing filled the air.

...

On the other side, Tang Mo, who was still cleaning the battlefield, suddenly received a distress call from Taixiang City.

It turned out that while retreating, Chebman had consolidated the Orc Allied Forces through Guan Shanhe and then quickly split them into three routes to launch surprise attacks on the weak points of Great Xia's defenses.

Chebman himself led the Orc elites to tie down Great Xia's elite forces in Yulin City.

The defensive strength of Taixiang City simply could not compare to the Orc Allied Forces, and it was already in a precarious state.

Outside Taixiang City, a two-headed giant snake and a large-eared hornless bull were frantically attacking the city walls, and the formations on the walls were already on the verge of collapse.

The Guard Army soldiers were firing the city defense ballistae with all their might, trying to repel the giant beasts before them.

But the usually invincible city defense ballistae couldn't even break the defense of the two giant beasts.

Wave after wave of Orc Professional skills struck the city, causing heavy casualties to the Guard Army.

"Gaga gaga, as long as we eliminate all these annoying humans, Great Xia will belong to our Japan."

"A dream of thousands of years is finally being realized by me!"

"Lord Yamata no Orochi, just watch; I will surely spread your glory across this entire land."

Oiwagawa Gaku said with a crazed laugh, shaking his two massive snake heads.

"Hmm? Gaku, what are you barking about?"

"Don't forget the original agreement. After conquering Great Xia, your Japan can only take one-eighth of the territory."

"If you dare to have any improper thoughts, I'll kill you right now."

Dick Hogan glared at Oiwagawa Gaku with his pair of bull eyes.

Oiwagawa Gaku immediately smiled apologetically and said, "I know, I know. I was just talking. Of course, we'll stick to the agreement."

"But first, let's take this place."

Dick Hogan gave a cold snort and ignored him, continuing to ram the city wall.

A faint, imperceptible coldness flashed in Oiwagawa Gaku's eyes,

"Hmph, once the city falls, you'll be the first to die."
