Even though the Union Army and the North Moana Army worked as one, they could not turn the situation around; casualties continued to rise! After only two hours of intense battle, more than a hundred thousand warriors had fallen, but the Raksasa Army had only lost about ten thousand soldiers.
Hundreds of thousands of warriors survived the initial attack, and they still tried their best to defend against their enemy.
Everyone was overwhelmed with despair and helplessness, but they knew that they were at the point of no return. They had put their lives on the line. They knew that defeat meant only one thing—the end of Nine Mainland.
Meanwhile, at the Raksasa Army’s side.
Two slim figures stood behind the Raksasa King’s chariot; a few dozens of Raksasa soldiers guarded them. Even though the Raksasa King was displeased that Alaric treated those two women as his teachers, he did not stop it. So, even though no one regarded them as high-status individuals, the Raksasa soldiers dared not mistreat them.
“What do we do?” Shentel trembled in despair as she witnessed that atrocity. One by one, warriors from the Nine Mainland fell; they died in the puddle of their own blood. Those were her fellow comrades!
Debra could only frown in frustration but somehow managed to anchor herself. She replied softly, “The battle has begun, but there’s nothing we can do to stop it now. The only way out is to wait until it is over and continue to have the Honourable Son convince the Raksasa King for mercy.”
Shentel sighed quietly at that comment and retreated into wordless silence.
Yang Jian’s face darkened as he watched his armies pushed back further by the enemy. Countless soldiers met their demise as they choked on their own blood.
“Commander, do you know what kind of beasts are those?” Yang Jian was enraged as he observed the Gigantic Monsters with intense focus, so he directed that question toward Zhang Jue. His advisor scowled thoughtfully before he said, “Their forms resemble apes but are far too powerful and enormous to be just that. I believe that they might be the Gigantic Monster mentioned in ancient studies.”
“Gigantic Monster?” Yang Jian’s stare turned cold. Then, he said ruthlessly, “I shall destroy them!”
Yang Jian raised his Tri-point Double-edged Saber steadily, and a wave of intimidating aura exploded. The clouds were instantly pulled toward him, and storms started to gather. He was the one and only Grandmaster Erlang whose rage could move the earth.
Yang Jian’s form blurred as he leaped into the air swiftly with a tight grip on the Tri-point Double-edged Saber. At that moment, the internal energy in Yang Jian erupted, and its sheer force ripped through the sky.
