C1774 If You Can't Beat It Then Retreat
Another Ghost General left the scene. The Ghost Shadow couldn't believe it. The strike of Qingyi was so powerful, and just now... Although his mental energy wasn't targeted at him, he could sense a huge fluctuation. From this, one could be sure that his mental energy... It was not an ordinary powerful spiritual energy. At this moment... He finally had a new understanding of Tsing Yi, but this understanding... He had paid a great price for the injuries of the four experts... This had caused the Ghost Shadow to lose all its confidence in defeating Tsing Yi. This fellow had lost one of his opponents. One less attack. In just a short period of time. It might even cripple them.1
Going all out was the final choice that he made in a situation where there was no way out. The Ghost Shadow clearly still had a way out. Therefore, it was impossible for him to go all out. He would bring his men and leave decisively. He would go back and nurture them. These four could be revived with full health. The next time he fought, he would still be in the top 12. How good would that be? There was no need for him to go all out.
Qingyi did not chase after them. Even if she used all her strength, she only managed to injure four of them. If she had the determination to keep them alive, it would definitely cause the Ghost Shadow and the others to fight with their lives on the line. If there were two or three of them, she could give it a try. However, there were still nine of them who were still in good condition. Once this fighting strength erupted, even she wouldn't be able to withstand it.
When he returned to the defensive wall, he naturally received countless respectful gazes. It was truly too powerful. One against thirteen. He had actually killed his enemies and made them flee in panic. That's right. In the eyes of others, this was the result. Tsing Yi swept her gaze over the area with the weakest defense. With Tsing Yi's participation, the pressure on the people in this area was immediately reduced by half. The lethality of the attack increased dramatically.
As the team moved forward, the First Emperor also arrived at the front line. Looking at the situation in front of them, he decisively attacked. The Warlock army beside him began to exert their strength, and even he himself personally made his move. A black light enveloped the surroundings of the golden-armored giant. It seemed like the First Emperor also knew the key to whether they could break through the defensive wall. As long as the enemies around the three golden-armored giants were eliminated... The golden-armored giants would be able to move forward.
The method was very simple, Lin Sen and the others could also see it clearly. But even if they could see it clearly, so what? In the end, they couldn't stop it. Warlocks' methods were not so easy to block. Even Lin Sen did not have the confidence to survive a Warlock's attack. Not to mention the others, everyone could only retreat and dodge. There was no other way. In the future, retreat and dodge. Thus, they left some space for the golden-armored giant.
"Boom!" The golden-armored giant's axe smashed into the defensive wall. The entire wall shook, and the ice covered the wall. Any existence that existed in the form of energy... None of them were able to block the shining golden axe. Before Lin Sen and the others could set it up again... The huge golden axe carried a ray of golden light. It condensed a huge amount of Qi and struck the defensive wall. It was a thick and heavy defensive wall. Cracks appeared where the axe had struck. It was probably unable to block the next attack.
"Everyone, be careful, the Giant King has escaped." Liu Xuan's voice brought bad news to everyone. The Giant King that they had been controlling had escaped with the help of the First Emperor and the others. This was the disadvantage of using people as the main body to set up the formation. As long as the person was gone, the formation would naturally cease to exist.
The giant king that had escaped immediately let out a furious roar. The black iron hammer in his hand danced like a tiger and gave rise to a strong wind. It was like a rapidly spinning windmill that swept everything around it. Anyone who touched it would not feel good. Under the lead of the green bull, it quickly flew towards the defensive wall.
"Retreat!" Lin Sen helplessly said to Ren Xingyan. If there was only a single golden-armored giant, then... Or only the Giant King. He can intercept it with all his might. But in the current situation, it was impossible to stop it. He could only block one of them. The defensive wall would definitely not be able to block the other three. Once the defensive wall was broken through, that would be the moment when the black army would bloom. At that time... The battle would not be intense or not, but it would be extremely intense.
"Everyone, pay attention. Retreat to the county as planned." Ren Xingyan ordered. The commanders of the teams immediately started to command the retreat. Ren Xingyan and the others had prepared for this before they came to the Xiangshui Town. They had made a plan in advance. When they were retreating... It would not be a mess. If there were no enemies... It did not matter if it was messy or not. However, there was no end to the battle inside the defensive wall. No matter if it was the Tiger Leopard Wolf Cavalry or the little giant, they wouldn't let them leave safely.
The number of people on the defensive wall decreased by more than half in an instant. Then, the remaining people also persisted for two minutes. They quickly withdrew from the defensive wall. At this moment, the defensive wall... A few gaps had already been smashed open, and a large number of black soldiers rushed out from the gaps. The golden-armored giant was still tearing down the wall, as if it hated the wall. It was uncomfortable to not tear down the wall.
The wall collapsed, and the person ran away. In the end, they were unable to rely on this defensive wall to block the footsteps of the First Emperor and the others. And the county was not safe and sound. Just as the Tiger, leopard, and Wolf Cavalry appeared, the county was also attacked. Fortunately, people discovered the assailant ahead of time. In addition, the old Taoist had led a powerful force back to station. There wasn't too much chaos.
When Lin Sen and the others started to retreat... The old Daoist and the others had already received the news. Their first reaction was to resolve the matter in the city as soon as possible. After that, they organized their men to prepare for the battle. They wanted Lin Sen and the others to retreat. The First Emperor and the others would definitely chase after them. They gave out orders one after another. The pace of the battle increased by a lot, and everyone tried their best. Finally, when the first batch of retreating people returned, they finished the battle.
When they stood on the defensive wall outside the county, they felt an inexplicable sense of confidence in their hearts. This wall was even thicker than the one in Xiangshui Town, and furthermore, it was even thicker. It was not. There was only this one wall. There were a total of five such defensive walls. Between the wall and the wall. There were also various facilities that could be used to cover the attacks of the soldiers.
"All long-range troops, attack freely according to the real-time data." Receiving the investigation information, the First Emperor and the others chased closely behind. Ren Xingyan decisively ordered them to attack while they could still see. If not, they would lose sight of them and would not be able to attack.
In the county, the various cannons that had been prepared in advance adjusted their positions according to the instructions. Then, they opened fire together. In an instant, hundreds of cannonballs rose into the air and flew towards the First Emperor and the others in an arc.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Explosions sounded out in succession. Some of them exploded in the air. When they saw the cannon fire approaching, the archers of the First Emperor and the others... They drew their bows and shot arrows, causing quite a number of missiles to explode in the air. To make it so that it doesn't have much of an effect, from this point, it could also be seen that anything... It had advantages, but it also had disadvantages. Things like cannonballs, due to their size, if it was an ordinary arrow... It was unlikely that the enemy would shoot down so many of them.
