Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 90: The Emperor's Robe
In terms of personal strength, Dada is definitely not as good as Douglas. My current raiding lineup, which is hovering in the sky and is mainly composed of the lower-level eighth-level terrifying dragon knights, is more powerful than the decisive battle with Douglas. It's just that Douglas was far away from his nest and had to flee in a hurry. He was intercepted by our superior forces. He was like a tiger in a plain. Now the host and the guest have changed positions, but I am alone in the deep, Dada Benon has the advantage of terrain, and can get strong support from his men. The internal ability to resist stubbornly, and the strong reinforcements are about to arrive. The situation is quite dangerous for me.
Before the reinforcements arrived, the outer Qingwu Feiyang launched the last round of offensive, pressing forward in large numbers, and invading the territory of the blood witches, exerting greater pressure on them, to see if they could force Dada Benon to mobilize his men and reveal their whereabouts. And Khufu led the terrifying dragon knights to speed up the assault, even at the cost of casualties, and never entangled with the blood witches along the way, and went straight to the main camp. However, the Blood Emperor's IQ was not as low as we expected. It seemed that he had determined that our offensive was not enough to threaten it, and with the arrival of strong reinforcements, he still chose to hide in the central army tent. All his direct subordinates also behaved quite confidently, each guarding their positions, with a strict formation, and no panic. It was a pity that we didn't want to kill too many blood witches, otherwise if we launched a fierce attack at the beginning, pressing forward from all sides, and adopting the strong attack tactics used by Qiu Shui Changtian and Tianxing, Dada Benon would definitely not be so relaxed.
The last effort still had no effect. Dada Benon could not be mobilized. Continuing to persist had no practical significance except for further increasing casualties on both sides. In addition, with reinforcements approaching, Qingwu Feiyang and his men could only retreat again. At the same time, Xin Bitiangao and others who were guarding the direction of the reinforcements began to consciously command their main forces to retreat to both sides, leaving only a small number of people on the defense line to deal with accidents, and flash a channel for the reinforcements to easily break through, which would not only avoid suspicion on the other side, facilitate Dada Benon to "come out to meet them", but also reduce our losses.
The reinforcements finally approached. Due to the long journey, they were scattered in a mess, but they did not immediately launch an attack to break through our defense line. They first stopped in an area out of sight, assembled briefly, reorganized their formation, and after a little preparation, they rushed towards us. It seems that there may be a blood witch royal family among the reinforcements, otherwise it would be impossible to make such a timely and prudent deployment .
Everything was going as expected. The reinforcements soon broke through the sparse defense line of Xinbitiangao and his team, and the vanguard had already rushed into the territory of the blood witches. Although the ghost kings scattered in the sky could not find the trace of the blood witch royal family, there was a group of blood witches in the team that were obviously taller. It is estimated that the royal family who came to help should be hiding among them. Dada Benon refused to show up, and Taotao and I still chose to stay put and hover in the sky waiting for the opportunity. And Khufu and his ground assault troops pushed forward with all their might, and were invincible wherever they pointed. Although the semi-free blood witches along the way who had no direct affiliation with Dada Benon were instinctively resisting the invasion of foreign enemies very tenaciously, there were no deserters who were afraid of death. However, they fought on their own, lacked unified command and dispatch, and had no way to exert their most terrifying cluster killing power, so they were broken through one by one by Khufu and his team. When the reinforcements entered the territory, they were already approaching Dada Benon's guards, and they opened up their formations and attacked them with all their strength, engaging them in close combat, showing a desperate posture, completely disregarding their own casualties, and leaving no troops to keep them evacuated safely. Of course, it doesn't matter if all the 5,000 terrifying earth dragon knights are sacrificed. I will definitely not let Khufu, Dizang and the others encounter any accidents. In order to be on the safe side, I have notified Qingwu Feiyang to gather heavy troops. Once the plan to raid and kill Dada Benon and control this group of blood witches fails, the army will immediately rush into the blood witch territory to help Khufu and the others break through the siege.
With the offensive on the periphery not making much progress for the time being, the performance of Khufu and his elite troops is crucial. They may not be able to fight against the tens of thousands of blood witches directly under Dada Benon, but as long as they charge desperately as before, they can definitely pose a greater threat to the other side, forcing Dada Benon to make corresponding adjustments, making it easier to expose their tracks. Moreover, when Taotao and I launch a surprise attack, we can effectively contain the surrounding blood witches and prevent them from rescuing Dada Benon in time.
More and more reinforcements were entering the territory, and Khufu and his men all rushed into the group of blood witches directly under the Blood Emperor and attacked wantonly, testing the reactions of the blood witches everywhere and speculating on the possible hiding place of Dada Benon. The counterattack of the blood witches here was obviously more organized and efficient, and the offensive was much more fierce. Even the strongest Khufu did not dare to resist and had to shrink back slightly and slow down the pace of attack. More often, I had to command the terrifying dragon knights to use their bodies to cover them to reduce the possible damage, which further confirmed our inference that Dada Benon might be hiding nearby.
While directing Khufu and his men's charge, I was paying more attention to the movements of the blood witches below to see if Dadabenon would appear. The direction of Khufu and his men's attack did not block their connection with the reinforcements. With the rear unstable and strong reinforcements in front, they should consider moving forward to meet up with the reinforcements as soon as possible and further strengthen their defenses. At that time, they could counterattack or break through, and they would have much more room for choice.
Moved. Under the fiercer attack of Khufu and his men, the blood witches below finally began to mobilize on a large scale, and formed a targeted siege and interception against Khufu and his men, and surrounded and killed them. Hundreds of blood witches shrank their formation, gathered together, gradually moved away from the battle circle, and slowly moved towards the direction where the reinforcements were coming. Although the distance was far, I could not detect the figure of Dadabenon in a blood-colored robe, but looking at the whole scene, it should be the most likely one to be among them. Dadabenon, the newly succeeded blood emperor, finally lost his patience and failed to hold on to the end. The seemingly normal displacement gave me, who was eyeing it covetously, an opportunity to take advantage of.
The reinforcements were getting closer and closer, and the opportunity was fleeting. There was no time for me to carefully determine Dadabenon's exact location. I could only implement the plan of "startling the snake by stirring up trouble", launching a full-scale attack on the target group, taking the opportunity to force Dadabenon out of sight, and then Tao Tao and the others would attack with all their might, trying to kill it in one fell swoop.
At the command, the first batch of seventy horror dragon knights quickly assembled, made some adjustments, and immediately launched a "loop attack", circling and diving down, attacking the retreating blood witches at the same time. Once the altitude was lowered, the blood witches immediately noticed the enemy situation in the sky, and without the slightest panic, hundreds of "death ripples" or "blood shadow hell bombs" were quickly launched. As expected of the elite soldiers guarding the blood witches, they were well-trained and responded correctly at the first time.
Unfortunately, the enemy they faced was a Horror Dragon Knight of the lower level 8, which was one level higher than the strongest individual among them. They avoided most interception attacks, flew over a distance of hundreds of meters, and in one dive attack, 70 blood wizards were killed in one blow - strong attack and weak defense are the weaknesses of almost all long-range magic soldiers. None of them could withstand the skill attack of the Horror Dragon Knight that increased the attack power by 300%.
I have already approached the blood witch group, so I don't need to use any skills anymore. I just wield the five or six meter long bone spear and fly around wantonly. This situation is not the time to be soft-hearted. I will kill as many blood witches as possible to weaken the strength of the guards Dada Benon while looking for Dada Benon's location to facilitate my second wave of deadly raids.
Suddenly, a hazy blood aura spread rapidly, covering an area within a radius of about 50 meters. At the same time, they did not stop, and tried their best to move closer to the direction of the reinforcements. The nearby blood witches continued to launch a fierce counterattack against the 70 terrifying dragon knights who had already appeared. Each of them was desperate and focused on attacking the targets that were closer to the blood mist. Hundreds of "blood shadow dark killing bullets" flew all over the sky. Unfortunately, the terrifying dragon knights who were the "targets" could not withstand such a group fight no matter how strong they were, and casualties occurred immediately.
The blood mist should be the same as the blood barrier Douglas had cast before. It can not only release phantoms, but also confuse attackers directly, making it impossible to accurately detect its actual location, greatly increasing the difficulty of our attack. However, it is obvious that Dada Benon's ability is still a certain distance away from Douglas, and can only cover an area with a radius of 50 meters. Moreover, while protecting itself, it also clarifies the direction of attack for us. Naturally, there is no need to hesitate. He led Taotao, Qitlei, Shaman and the remaining more than 30 terrifying dragon knights and rushed down.
At this time, the nearby blood witches may have received the order from Dada Benon and were quickly approaching this side. However, the previous batch of terrifying flying dragon riders distracted their attention, so we did not receive too warm a "welcome", and basically rushed to the blood witch group safely. Especially I was still riding on Taotao's back. I was flying in the air, but I had no ability to use any skills. I could only rely on Taotao for protection. Facing the magic attacks of many blood witches, I was really nervous before I got down to earth, fearing that something unexpected would happen.
He didn't care to let Taotao chase the blood witch, so he let it land first, restored its ability to attack and save its life, and then commanded them to rush to Dada Benon's bloody barrier. This time was different from the last battle with Douglas, where he could win by relying on numbers. Now the blood witches had the advantage in numbers, and they would gather more and more. It was impossible to delay for too long, so he could only attack with all his strength and try to get rid of Dada Benon before the reinforcements, especially the other blood witch royal family, arrived.
Fortunately, Shaman and the Bloodbat couple belonged to the same blood clan, so Dadabenon's bloody barrier did not have much impact on them. Taotao, Qitlei, and Guben's fire attribute attacks also had a certain restraining effect on the blood clan, and could cause additional damage. As long as they could successfully rush to Dadabenon and start a close combat, it should be possible to kill it in a short time.
Relying on the terrifying flying dragon knight as a cover, and even using their bodies to block the attacks from all directions, Taotao, Shaman and other main attackers rushed into the blood-colored barrier one after another, looking for Dada Benon's figure. Deviation, deviation again, I was anxious watching from outside the barrier. Although people were not far away, Taotao and the others were often confused by the phantoms and could not get through, and frequently turned to other directions. Even Shaman and the blood bat couple were affected by other blood witches in the barrier. After several attacks, they only injured the guarding blood witches and could not attack Dada Benon smoothly. It happened that this blood-colored barrier also had a great impact on the spiritual connection between us. Once we rushed into it, the orders issued were often not received by them in time. The individual commanded several times, not only in vain, but also almost had the opposite effect, and was almost injured by Dada Benon. At the moment, I didn't dare to command randomly anymore, and could only rely on their instincts to fight.
The reinforcements are almost here, and more and more blood witches are joining the attack, gathering here from all directions. If it weren't for Khufu leading the remaining 1,000 or so Horror Land Dragon Knights to launch a frantic attack on the other side, disrupting the defense of these blood witches, the pressure we would have been under would have been even greater. I couldn't delay any longer, and seeing an opportunity, I quickly changed back to human form among the blood witches, arranged two Horror Dragon Knights to protect me with their bodies, and at the same time concentrated 30% of my mental power and sent a "mental shock" to Dada Benon.
Although inevitably weakened by the bloody barrier, Dada Benon's strength was not as good as Douglas's, and my current state was more than twice as strong as that time, and the upper limit that could be activated at one time also increased by 10%. As a result, I was dizzy, my ears were buzzing, and my body couldn't help shaking a few times. It was obviously also a big impact on Dada Benon. His body, which was moving backwards, couldn't help but stagnate, and his feet also staggered. Perhaps because of this, the movement of the bloody barrier was affected. Shaman, who had already performed "Blood Change", finally realized its exact location, grabbed a blood witch in front of him, and threw him to the ground on the side, then dodged, flexibly changed directions, and made several consecutive jumps, bringing six or seven afterimages along the way, disrupting the interception of several nearby blood witches, and rushed to Dada Benon's side.
Before Shaman launched the attack, Dada Benon roared, and with a loud bang, a red light flashed in front of us, and the blood-colored barrier exploded. It was like Douglas, who immediately detonated the blood-colored barrier when he saw the situation was not good, and escaped from the barrier while blocking the enemy, avoiding the attack. Shaman and Taotao in the barrier were also like last time, either knocked to the ground or staggered, temporarily suspending the attack, which seemed to buy time for Dada Benon. However, the dozens of blood witches remaining in the blood-colored barrier were also injured by the explosion , and all lay on the ground, and their injuries were very serious. For a while, no one could get up, so there was no obstacle between us and Dada Benon.
After the decisive battle with Douglas, I had already considered this method of detonating the barrier. At the same time, with the relevant information "forced" from Temur, I had already come up with a strategy to deal with it. It can be said that I had been waiting for Dada Benon to use this move. When it thought it could temporarily get rid of the crisis, it was the time for me to make a desperate effort.
Ignoring the threat from the nearby blood witch, I relied on the close protection of the two terrifying dragon knights beside me to try my best to block the attacks that followed , and seized the opportunity to quickly launch a second "mental attack" at Dada Benon, who had not yet had time to release the bloody barrier again. Without the weakening effect of the bloody barrier, the impact of this attack on it was obviously much greater. It was unstable and staggered several times in a row. Regardless of whether the injury was serious or not, at least it could not release the bloody barrier immediately.
At the same time, Feiying appeared in the sky and used "Banshee's Howl" alone towards Dadabenon to prevent it from concentrating on the enemy. All the Horror Dragon Knights rushed towards the nearby Blood Witches without hesitation to contain their actions and prevent them from rescuing Dadabenon in time. Taotao and his group were still the deadly killers. Taotao, the strongest one, recovered from the blood explosion first, followed by Qitlei and Shaman, who all rushed towards Dadabenon immediately to give it no chance to counterattack.
One wrong move, and the whole game goes wrong. Before Dada Benon could adapt to the "Banshee's Howl", Tao Tao, who was the closest to it, had already rushed to it and used the "Dragon Claw Hand" to attack with all his strength. Coupled with the impact of the fire dragon, it must be impossible for Dada Benon to spare the time to activate the blood-colored barrier. Then came Qi Te Lei's "Fire Dance Silver Snake", Sa Man's "Ghost Claw Thirteen Attacks", and even the weaker blood bat couple and Gu Ben recovered and rushed forward to join the beating. In order to further contain Dada Benon and not give it a chance to fight back, I used the "Magic Storage Ring" and condensed 30% of my mental power to launch a "mental attack" to help Tao Tao and the others kill Dada Benon as soon as possible. For this, the two terrifying dragon knights who were responsible for covering me died heroically one after another. If I hadn't used the "External Incarnation" to dodge quickly, even I might have been killed by a group of crazy counterattacks from the blood witches.
Unable to bring into play the effect of the "Blood Emperor's Robe", and being besieged by the enemy at close range, Dada Benon, whose defense ability was already low, struggled to death. Although he almost killed Qitlei and Feiying, he still couldn't hold on and fell under Taotao's "Dragon Claw Hand". With its death, the blood-colored gold-threaded robe draped over its body fell off by itself and floated into the air. It circled around Taotao and the others for a while, and then flew straight towards me. A golden light flashed by. A few months ago, the throne that was about to be taken away from me was snatched away before my eyes. Now I finally wear the robe of the emperor and possess the position of the Blood Emperor.
