Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2013 - 640: Pointed Needles Against Sharp Wheat
"Go!" Liu Zhennan glanced in his spare time at old Witherspoon, who also seemed to be in chaos. General Reyes also wasn’t too confident in the Temple Knights’ defense area, bringing two Boer regiments and one House regiment to reinforce the city defense. Several Pier generals were arguing heatedly with the Pope.
Just like Prince Rhincor was amazed by the Beamon main battle species gathered in Witherspoon, old Liu similarly felt a bit shocked by the immense strength of the Sea Clan’s army. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be mobilizing forces in this way; as the enemy’s main force abandoned the cannon fodder types and progressively pushed their elite troops towards the city, he could now clearly observe the main composition of the Sea Clan through his eagle-eyed old spyglass, no longer mistaking it for the unknown.
The Sea Clan’s main legion was led by more than twenty Giant Tortoises at the forefront, with their island-like shells densely packed with Mulan soldiers. On each large model’s shell stood at least four to five hundred people!
Each of these giant sea turtles had a pair of sharp antlers on their foreheads, with thick, spiky necks that were long and thick, already towering over Witherspoon’s city walls! What worried old Liu the most was that these giant sea turtles exuded exceedingly thick Elemental Fluctuations and faint dragon breath, undoubtedly, under the premise that "dragons are inherently lustful," these turtles were very likely Ocean Sub-dragon Magical Beasts!
From a combat perspective, it is not necessarily the case that the magical beasts with the strongest Elemental Power are the most suitable for battlefield duels. The copper clam leader Silvester and the Evil-eye Tyrant Liu Zhennan fought against before were typical examples; these Superorder Creatures on the battlefield might not be as efficient at killing as a Magic Plant!
Sometimes, a grand physique doesn’t fall short of magic’s destructive power, and these giant sea turtles genuinely made old Liu anxious. Once such terrifyingly sized Ocean Demon Beasts begin to unleash their power, regardless of their attacks’ potency, merely their appearance would be astounding!
Sub-dragon Magical Beasts possess high-level Instant Magic, and this caliber of magic has surpassed the Totem Pillar of War Songs’ exemption scope. To ordinary people, high-level magic and Forbidden Curse are indistinguishable, being hit by either means death.
This brutal battlefield before us is precisely the stage for ordinary people!
In the gaps on either side of the twenty-plus giant tortoises, around thirty thousand Mulan Mojie and tortoise warriors carrying Shell Shields and warhammers filled the spaces with irregular formations. Due to the tight space, Mulan warriors and tortoise warriors frequently got stepped on by the giant tortoises, exploding directly like burst tomatoes.
So many attacking a single side of the city wall seemed overly extravagant. Such a vast siege force would, from a conventional military perspective, be a tremendously foolish arrangement, as there simply wouldn’t be enough space for them to climb the city wall simultaneously, instead exposing themselves to concentrated defensive fire.
However, similarly because of numerical superiority, the visual and psychological impact on the Beamon city defenders was equally formidable!
Behind the tortoises and Mulan warriors were the core forces consisting of ten thousand Quabo Tribe Giant Crab Knights and ten thousand Goblin Tribe Magic Shark Warriors. These two troop forces were powerful breeds from the Ares Ocean Kingdom and Seia Ocean Kingdom. The two-meter-plus tall giant crabs excelled in using lancet guns, with naturally sharp blade-like sides on their fingers, able to easily snip through enemy bones. Their mount, the Emperor Lancet Crab, was also adept at climbing rocks; Goblin warriors, skilled with water element magic, could self-detonate in desperate times, launching glass-like boneshards at opponents.
Following the two elite forces were the Ares and Seia Ocean Kingdoms’ ultimate warriors, comprising two hundred Banilou Whale Warriors carrying massive anchor chains and two hundred fifty Paningsue Tribe Deep-sea Squid Warriors. These ocean warriors boasted seven-meter-tall, robust bodies, used their powerful tendril-like hair as weapons, along with ancient battle axes.
Banilou warriors could spray powerful water jets akin to battering rams, while Paningsue warriors could eject eye-stinging stinking ink waves, which were not their innate abilities but advantages from their robust physiques.
In the entirety of Witherspoon City, only the Orephin Tribe Giant Elephant Warriors were qualified to face these two Sea Clan elite warriors, but including mammoth warriors, Witherspoon’s giant elephant warriors numbered less than one hundred and fifty.
As they approached firing range, two thousand Dile archers swiftly spread out at the wings of the siege force under the drive of Mulan cavalry. Following them were over two thousand Storm Splitter sorcerers and Mulan Imams. The entire formation advanced systematically, despite the large numbers, showcasing unmistakable elite presence, devoid of disorder.
Behind the entire siege force, the Hai Mu allied forces had a large-scale phalanx on standby. Aside from lacking the two elite warriors, discounting most cannon fodder types, be it Mulan elite Mojie, tortoise warriors, or Quabo Tribe Giant Crab Knights, Goblin Tribe Magic Shark Warriors, they still held troop reserves equal to the siege force.
This scale of reserve troops was absolutely staggering.
"Prince Abdullah, have your Mulan Chief Imam prepare the Forbidden Curse. This city must be destroyed!" Prince Similian gazed at his own imposing formation, suddenly feeling much better. Though his tone remained commandingly imperious, it was not as harsh as earlier.
