Chapter 453: War Weapons
Su Jiu rubbed his chin, mimicking a gesture he had learned from Commander.
"Is the Ghost Clan army coming now to compete with us for business?"
Su Jiu hadn't forgotten that in this world, the Ghost Clan had always had its eyes on humans. And their current goal was to conquer the city ahead. If the Ghost Clan arrived now, they would beco competitors in this endeavor, which couldn't be allowed!
The city had to be theirs, as per Commander's orders!
Su Jiu was about to order the army to advance quickly and seize the city before the Ghost Clan arrived. However, he quickly thought about what Commander would do in this situation.
Su Jiu closed his eyes and carefully rembered Commander's actions when he had followed him closely in the past.
If it were Commander facing this situation, he definitely wouldn't waste his own power. Commander valued every one of his subordinates and wouldn't easily let them die.
Moreover, there was a great opportunity right in front of them. How could they waste it?
"Send a ssage back to them, tell them to hold on, and we will provide them with support," Su Jiu said.
Even though the soldiers looked puzzled, they didn't say anything and imdiately carried out his orders.
In the Red Alert Base, no one could defy orders from higher-ups, especially since every Red Alert Soldier had confidence in their own abilities. Even if they encountered eighth-order powerhouses, the only thing on their minds was to fight!
Soon, the ssage reached the city, and Li Jing received the news with great joy. "This is truly a blessing. With the support of the external forces, even the Ghost God Army won't be able to breach the city!"
Li Jing hadn't even considered the possibility of the other side reneging on their promise. In his view, both sides were human forces, and it was only natural for them to help each other.
With his spirits high, Li Jing imdiately issued orders for the troops to mobilize and block the Ghost God Army as far away from the city as possible, ensuring they wouldn't get anywhere near it!
The human army marched out of the city gates, their expressions serious and even sowhat resigned.
They had heard of the reputation of the Ghost God Army, a force of ten thousand that had defeated a hundred thousand. How could they possibly contend with that?
They all knew that their loved ones lived in the city, and if they gave up, the city would truly have no hope left.
"Are we marching to our deaths?" one soldier whispered to his friend.
"Shh! Do you want to get yourself killed? If soone hears you and reports it, you'll die right now! On the battlefield, there might still be a chance to survive," his friend advised.
Upon hearing this, the soldier had to admit that it made sense. He lowered his head in resignation. With his second-tier strength, his chances of surviving on the battlefield were indeed slim.
Just then, another voice spoke up, "Let
tell you so good news. It seems there are reinforcents from other human factions around the city. As soon as we engage with the Ghost Clan, they will launch a surprise attack on them. We're guaranteed to win this battle!"
This statent imdiately drew everyone's attention. The speaker was an ordinary-looking soldier.
"How do you know this?" soone asked.
Becoming the center of attention, the soldier felt proud. "This information is confidential. Not many people know about it, but I have a friend in the Intelligence Departnt, and he told ."
People instinctively chose to believe what this person was saying. After all, with this news, they at least had so hope of surviving.
With hope in their hearts, the soldiers beca more spirited, even quickening their steps.
Ahead of the human soldiers was the Ghost God Army, the most famous army of the Ghost Clan!
"Humans dare to approach us actively; it seems we haven't hurt them enough in the last encounter," a mber of the Ghost Clan sneered upon seeing the humans.
These Ghost Clan mbers were different from the typical ones; they were clad in black armor and wielded giant swords, fully ard.
Ordinary Ghost Clan warriors rarely had such comprehensive equipnt; only the Ghost God Army was the exception.
"These are all pri prey; we mustn't waste them," another Ghost Clan mber revealed a bloodthirsty smile.
"Engage the entire army; kill them!"
The human army clashed with the Ghost God Army, and the battle began.
The Ghost God Army soldiers were formidable, and with a single strike, they overwheld the human soldiers who couldn't withstand them.
On the other hand, the human soldiers had low-powered laser guns, forcing them to resort to close combat.
Among soldiers of the sa rank, the Ghost Clan's strength was generally superior, making the battle one-sided.
After so ti in battle, Li Jing asked one of his trusted aides, "How is the situation?"
"My lord, currently, we are at a disadvantage. We can only hold out for a short ti. Should we deploy the War Weapons?" the aide asked.
Every city had its own War Weapons, formidable weapons on the battlefield that played crucial roles.
Li Jing contemplated, genuinely wanting to use the reinforcents. War Weapons consud Crystals and were troubleso to repair after the battle, and Li Jing's principle was to conserve resources whenever possible.
"Contact the reinforcents and have them deploy the War Weapons," Li Jing eventually decided.
It didn't take long for the aide to return, his face carrying a hint of anger, which gave Li Jing an uneasy feeling.
"My lord, the liaison officer from the reinforcents told
they plan to wait for a critical mont to intervene and won't do so now."
"What?" Li Jing wasn't naive; he instantly understood that the reinforcents might want both sides, Humans and the Ghost Clan, to weaken each other, leaving them to benefit.
Li Jing took a deep breath. He knew he couldn't rely on the reinforcents; he had to rely on himself now.
"Deploy the War Weapons; we must stop the Ghost God Army at all costs!"
"Yes!"
With heavy footsteps, massive War Weapons ca into play.
The appearance of these War Weapons surprised Su Chen. Weren't these just large black iron spheres? Indeed, the War Weapons were nothing more than these huge iron spheres, with surfaces so smooth they could reflect light.
If it weren't for the stunned and envious expressions on the other soldiers' faces, Su Chen might have thought they were joking.
Boom!
Dozens of iron spheres appeared from the city gates, lined up in front of them. At that mont, the soldiers received orders and retreated from both sides.
"Attack!"
Li Jing shouted, and instantly, countless spikes erged on the surface of these iron spheres, with electricity flickering on them. Then, the iron spheres rolled forward.
"Wow, this weapon is fantastic! When can I design one?" Su Chen imdiately took a liking to this weapon. With the technology from the Red Alert Base, he believed these iron spheres could truly shine. (To be continued...)
