286: Chapter 56 – Battle of the Reserve Team _1 286: Chapter 56 – Battle of the Reserve Team _1 Even with their numbers being four thousand strong, the bandits were thoroughly intimidated by the one hundred or so Centaurs before them.
These adversaries could make their scalp prickle with unease by their simple presence, facing such characters, the bandits felt wronged.
They were facing a force forty tis their size!
Why did their adversaries have such indifferent and calm faces?
Why were their eyes as sharp as newly sharpened steel knives?
The bandits who had tasted blood knew what such eyes an.
The fierceness can be nurtured, but this inherent combativeness can never be developed.
The Goblin Cavalry’s attack was nearing its end, the “Hex Chant” – “Song of Power Drain” indeed proved to be extrely vicious.
Although Helen only achieved the first phase of this three-phase wicked aura War Song, she managed to absorb a third of the Goblin Cavalry’s power each ti she invoked this aura and transferred it onto the Vassal Clan warriors.
Coupled with the effects of the “Siren’s Weakness Dance”, the situation beca extrely one-sided.
Helen’s troops were divided into four parts: a mixed squadron of Musketeers and Mages led by Ning Yu and Avril, a fighting group composed of sacrificial soldiers and the Vassal Clan, a team of Slave Warriors led by Karu accompanied by the Mammoth Cavalry.
As they gradually suppressed the Goblin Cavalry, they inexorably advanced towards the battlefield.
Ignoring their fighting power, the approach of several hundred people from four directions gave many of the bandits the illusion that they were surrounded!
“Ready!” Facing this imnse threat, a hidden voice among the bandits began to give instructions in an urgent tone.
The flag representing the command also rose.
Scattered bandit Archers drew their bowstrings, and more bandits took out their throwing weapons such as hand axes, darts and javelins.
The anticipated frenzy of an attack did not happen.
By order of the Overlord, more than a hundred militian ford a semicircular formation behind him, facing the bandits’ battle formation like a curved crescent moon.
The front row comprised of several mammoth infantry accompanied by Hippo Poets, behind them were fearso panda warriors and the Mastiff Warriors, and behind the pandas were a bunch carrying bundles of sharpened bamboo spears.
These Pier Race warriors were robust and what was even more rare, they had snowy white fur.
Could they be the legendary Ice Bear Beamons from the extre north?
Many bandits who did not know about the pandas dyeing their hair were left scratching their heads.
Monsters!
How are they all the brave and battle-addicted Beamon Race?
Many bandits were musing over this matter.
From their adversaries’ montum, the bandits thought that they were going to charge.
Who would have thought they would form a defensive formation instead?
Only a madman would charge.
Liu Zhenhan snorted a cold laugh seeing the dense collection of tree spears and massive shields.
There were still fifteen War Song Scrolls left in the pocket of Liu Zhenhan’s camisole, apart from the three Soul Chain War Songs, five were Berserk Scrolls and five Power of Stupidity Scrolls.
Just a mont ago, he unintentionally spent more than half of his possessions.
At the sa ti as the bandits launched an attack under the guidance of that mysterious voice, Liu Zhenhan’s War Song Scroll also launched, chaotic darts and hand axes were hurled towards the semi-circular formation.
The Hippo Poets and mammoth powerhouses waved their weapons blocking these flying objects.
So objects that slipped through sparked off the rattan armor and was deflected.
These bright and shiny rattan armors were not only flexible, they were also hard, providing a good buffer.
The four spears on the backs of Panda warriors were also simultaneously thrown.
Within fifty yards, no bandit tainted with the Power of Stupidity stood a chance of survival against the tri-edge Demon Hunter Spear of the Panta Warriors.
The target of the Demon Hunter Spear were the largest bandits, the Hill Giant bandits were the first to bear the brunt.
Despite their large shields covering most of their bodies, the spinning spears pierced their shields and impaled their robust chests.
Amid the blast of the wooden shields and the earth-shattering screams of the Hill Giants…
According to the aim of the Pandas, within fifty ters, even if they wanted to hit the Giant’s people, they would hit their nose at most.
But breaking through the shield was enough to warn these bandits that they were not safe behind the shield.
This show of force had the desired effect.
Faced with a great threat, apart from the Goblin bandits who remained calm, the other bandits showed considerable confusion.
Many had clearly begun to shrink back in fear.
Several leading Goblins swinging their double swords, killed a few cowardly runners to quell this upheaval.
The evil aura spread, and the Power of Stupidity made all the bandits at the “V” formation’s arrowhead position turned into puppets.
One by one they were killed by the spears, although for the four thousand bandit-strong crowd, these kinds of casualties were insignificant.
But to watch as your comrades next to you were pierced through, and then another few bodies fell down, it was not a good feeling to be slaughtered like this.
Under the command of the mysterious voice, a large number of flank bandits moved to the middle to replenish the formation.
Both sides in the first round of long-range weapons opened up the exchange.
The four spears in the hands of Pandas were thrown, a bundle of bamboo spears were deeply embedded in the soil in front, one bamboo spear after another pierced through the air, targeting the already identified targets.
