Shortly after the tens of thousands of monster beasts had come out of the forest, more than twenty sub-camps had now been shattered, and one-third of all those camps were destroyed by Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian.
And it seemed that in this battle, Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's troops must have cried. The number of soldiers and captains killed was a huge waste. Moreover, other countries would also see the country's shame for its colossal waste of troops within the weakest country.
"Who are you…? Soldier, kill…"
Slash!!!
"I am the one who will take you to visit your grandmothers and grandfathers in Hell!"
"Captain!!!"
Now Zheng-Fu continued to hunt and kill the captain-in-chief of the various sub-camps because he wanted to weaken the morale of the general soldiers, while Jin-Tian was in charge of killing the soldiers and scaring them even more.
But still, Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian did not unleash all of their energy. He wanted the Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's army to think that this incident was due to the horde of monster beasts rather than the skill of a human being; otherwise, it would cause more trouble later for sure.
So, he had to deal with this silently without anyone knowing. Even if he stormed into the center of the camp, only the captain-in-chief and their closest henchmen saw him, but in the end, they died anyway. So, no one knew it was him because there were no witnesses.
The right deputy commander had now organized a troop of twenty thousand skilled soldiers at the Nascent stage and one hundred men of the Fire Bull Squad with strength at the intermediate level of the Nascent stage. This sub-troop was comparable to a general army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
"Right, sir. The horde of monster beasts has now reached the center of the area, and they are expected to arrive in the inner quarter soon, sir!"
"Tsk! The low-class monster beasts, are they possibly causing chaos for our army? Coming to die! All you brave soldiers, get your weapons ready. Let's go hunting!"
Hey!!! Hey!!! Hey!!!
When the words of the right deputy commander ended, the shouts of his best-skilled soldiers shook the ground. Not only that, but they also unleashed psychic killings with a hunger for slaughter in their surroundings, which according to how the right commander had awakened their morale.
"Let's go genocide them all!!!"
Yaa!!! Yaa!!! Yaa!!!
A hundred troops quickly moved from the main camp to the medium camp, and in a matter of moments, they arrived at the sub-camp where the horde of monster beasts was scattered in an instant, battling it out.
"Huh... I doubt this round of harassment will end sooner than I thought, for they seem to have sent their most skilled soldiers to deal with the horde of monster beasts. By the way, even if they send the best of them, that amount is probably not enough to deal with these ten Immortal monster beasts."
Zheng-Fu, who was at a sub-camp distant from the collision point, spoke after he sensed several seemingly strong forces colliding with the horde of monster beasts. He was calculating the probabilities of the outcome that would happen.
The result that Zheng-Fu expected was that tens of thousands of the horde of monster beasts would be defeated as quickly as possible. But that was only the low level of them. As for the high-ranking ones, they, of course, had a chance to survive, or if they did not, they would fight to the death.
Anyway, by making them fight to the death, the other party had to be willing to lose a number of their troops. After thinking for a while, Zheng-Fu quietly continued to slaughter the next high ranks.
At the main camp, in the Grand Commander's tent...
"Report the retreat, sir. The troops from the many sub-camps that have not yet been attacked have now retreated, but there are still many camps that cannot retreat because of the horde of monster beasts attacking, sir."
"A rough report on the number of deaths, sir. We have now lost more than a million soldiers from the sub-camp number fiftieth to the one-hundredth, sir."
"More than one million people!!? That's too much. In just a short time, we lost so many soldiers?"
Everyone's faces became hopelessly frozen when they heard of the death of their troops, as it was far more than what was expected. It was a loss of one-fifth of the troops.
"Have the forces of the right deputy commander clashed with the horde of monster beasts yet?" the grand commander asked in a trembling voice.
"The deputy commander's forces clashed with the horde of monster beasts, and many of the monster beasts died, sir. It is expected that soon it will be…"
Booooom!!! Boom!!!!!
Suddenly, violent explosions silenced the conversation inside the tent before they all rushed outside to see what had happened.
Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!
These were the sounds of explosions from the right deputy commander's battle against the three Immortal monster beasts. The battle was so badly intended that the surrounding area was filled with pits and numerous fissures.
The deputy commander's battle with the three Immortal stage monster beasts was still very intense. Dozens of his highly skilled soldiers died at once. There was no need to mention what the general soldiers in the area were going to be like. Yes… their condition was very bad; their arms and legs were scattered all over.
Yaa!!!
"You guys, low-class monster beasts, die!"
[Fire Sword Technique]
Booooom!!!
Gkee!!! Gkee!!! Gkee!!!
As soon as Deputy Commander used his martial technique, a heatwave erupted, causing the surrounding area to heat up, forming the Fire Sword waves, lashing out at an Immortal monster beast, causing it to scream out in agony and eventually die.
"Ha ha ha, how are you guys…"
Zing!!!
Thump, thump, thump!!!
"Right Deputy Commander!!!"
"Right Deputy Commander!!!"
The shouts called out to the right deputy commander in unison. All his skilled subordinates and the grand commander, who was watching the battle, saw his head slip off his shoulders as he laughed in satisfaction when he had killed an Immortal stage monster beast.
As he was laughing hysterically, a figure of the huge monster beast as large as two humans appeared beside him before slamming its sharp claw on the right deputy commander's head until it slipped out of his shoulder without even realizing it. And that monster beast was Jin-Tian.
It was ordered by Zheng-Fu to sneak into the deputy commander's side to kill him in order to increase the morale of the remaining monster beasts, letting them be hungry to slaughter even more.
Roarrrrrr!!! Roarrrrrr!!!
Yaa!!!
"You bastard low-class beasts, I'll kill you all!" The grand commander was furious until his ears rang upon seeing that the deputy commander, his confidant, was killed by Jin-Tian.
He shouted so loudly, unleashing all his energy with the eerie psychic killing shot towards Jin-Tian that stood majestically. But just as the grand commander was rushing out, Jin-Tian's figure suddenly vanished from his and everyone's sight, as if it had never existed before.
Huh...?
"Wh... where... where's it gone!?"
"Just now it's still here?"
Roarrrrrrr!!! Roarrrrrrr!!!
Gkee!!!
Squack!!!
Aaaah!!! Aaaah!!! Aaaah!!!
But the monster beasts that were left definitely would not let this opportunity go. They started slaughtering the soldiers again in a frenzy, ignoring how skilled the soldiers of the deputy commander were. They did not care because they were not as intelligent as humans.
"Grand Commander, we must retreat first, sir. Otherwise, all of our men will be killed!" At that moment, the left deputy commander had regained his consciousness. He spoke up and rushed to block the grand commander's path.
"Would you like me to retreat? Then who will be responsible for the life of the right deputy commander? We are the soldiers of Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country. We could be killed but not demeaned! You've got to declare that if anyone retreats, I'll cut off their heads!"
"But, Grand Commander. It's..."
"Or do you want to be the first? Huh!?"
"Ah!... Err... Yes, sir, Grand Commander."
The grand commander was now so furious that he could not control his temper because he did not expect his army to face such a tragedy and also have to lose the deputy commander, many skilled soldiers, and millions of other soldiers.
How could he not be so angry that he could not calm down? So, he announced that if anyone escaped from fighting, he would punish that person. And when the order was announced, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who tried to flee the horde of monster beasts were reluctant to turn around.
Even if they had escaped, they would not have escaped death, but if they had turned back and won, they still had a chance of survival, so all the retreating soldiers turned around and formed a new strategy to swarm the horde of monster beasts. As for the good-skilled ones, they would attack the Immortal monster beasts.
At this point, Zheng-Fu, who was in one of the sub-camps, also noticed the change that they had already begun to react to. Therefore, his time was over, and he had to retreat because if he was still there, there might be someone who could see him.
"Jin-Tian, retreat!!"
Grrrrrrr!!!
Upon receiving an order, Jin-Tian immediately used the Figure Hiding and Energy Camouflage skills, including Zheng-Fu too. The two had vanished without a trace from the battlefield by now, and by the time the battle was over, of course, all of Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's troops had lost almost half of them this time.
But even then, Zheng-Fu was still unsatisfied with these results because Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's soldiers still had more than half, and half of them were comparable in capacity to the entire Blueland army that had been deployed to defend the country.
Since the soldiers' cultivation levels were too different, most of Blueland's soldiers were only at the intermediate to high levels of the Golden Core stage. There were only a few thousand on the Immortal stage, while the enemy was more than ten thousand people on this stage.
With just this, he could predict which side would win, so Zheng-Fu needed to come up with a plan to reduce their strength even more, as much as possible. And by the events of the last moment, he had killed twenty captains at once, and all of them were on the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Boom!!! Aaaah!!! Boom!!! Aaaah!!!
Roarrrrrrr!!! Grrrrrr!!! Gkee!!!
Gkee!!! Gkee!!!
"Kill them all, don't leave any!!"
"Yes, sir!!!"
Slash! Zing! Slash!
"Send some reinforcements to the right; there're still many monster beasts left!"
"And they're still on the left!"
The sound of the battle continued, as did the sounds of the captain and those soldiers who had positions that commanded their subordinates to go in various directions, including setting the army formations at the same time.
One shichen had passed...
Chop! Slash!
Gkee!!!
The battle was finally over. Tens of thousands of monster beasts had been killed, including ten Immortal monster beasts, and the one who killed them was the grand commander, who was filled with rage and madness as his troops were slaughtered one after the other before his very eyes.
