Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 985 - 605: City Defense

"Kill!!!"

In the battlefield of ten thousand, chaos reigned. Wen Chou’s eyes burned crimson with the fury of his brother’s death, leading five thousand Iron Rod soldiers and eight thousand Hebei Army towards Yellow Sky City.

He, together with Yan Liang and Yuan Shao, their lord Zhang Ying, possessed the Eastern Han civilization (Hebei), capable of training civilization units Hebei Army and special troops Iron Rod Army.

The Hebei Army needs little introduction, being of regular standard for First-order Civilization Units. The focus, however, is on the Iron Rod Army, these iron-colored troops which are divided into infantry, spearmen, cavalry, and archers, ranking above average among First-order special troops.

Though only above average, with Yuan Shao, the Epic Commander, and a series of special skills in support, their actual combat power reached the pinnacle.

Such a formidable force, coupled with his own unquenched rage and a Physical Strength over a hundred, made breaching the city easy, almost like water flowing into a channel.

So...

"Drive!!!"

Wen Chou had barely led his troops out when a red flame rushed straight towards him.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a Sweat Blooded Treasure Horse, and astride it, a female general. She wore a Single-Sided Pheasant Feather Crown and White Tiger Armor, her heroic figure both awe-inspiring and fiercely imposing, charging towards his formation with her Long Spear.

"Huh!?"

Wen Chou’s gaze sharpened, about to speak, but unexpectedly...

"Get out of the way!"

A Furious Shout, startling and indescribable, as Lv Lingqi charged forward on her steed. Seeing Wen Chou and the Iron Rod Army of Hebei in her way, she swung her Long Spear without a second thought.

"Boom!"

Fighting Spirit exploded; the spear spun like a wheel, a storm surging into the ranks of the Hebei Army. Blood and rain mixed together, and everywhere it passed was littered with death and upheaval.

Unrivaled Secret Technique: Storm Slash (Throw your weapon, spinning it around your body with incredible force and speed like a storm, slaughtering the enemy. If kills reach a hundred, grant yourself Storm status, increasing action speed by 50%, consuming 100 points of Unrivaled Value)

...

Charging into the ranks, Lv Lingqi didn’t hesitate to unleash her Unrivaled Secret Technique, instantly inflicting heavy casualties on the Hebei Army.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene, Wen Chou burst into a towering rage. He spurred his horse forward, intercepting the Long Spear with his spear, and with a great heave, swung back at Lv Lingqi.

Lv Lingqi, fearless, caught the Long Spear with one hand, spurred her Sweat Blood Horse, and turned to charge in another direction.

Her heart was not in this place; she had no time to entangle with Wen Chou.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

But how could Wen Chou let her leave? He immediately chased after her on horseback.

But unexpectedly...

"Whoosh!!!"

A thousand as one, coming in a flash, Wen Chou’s pupils contracted, a mixture of shock and anger. Looking up, he saw a dark cloud of doom covering the sky, descending upon them.

"Raise shields against arrows!"

Seeing this, Wen Chou dared not chase any longer. With an angry shout, he ordered his entire army to raise their shields, and he too spun his spear, creating a protective flurry impenetrable by water or needle.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

With a clanging sound, countless arrows flew, and again, death scattered everywhere, soldiers falling to the arrow storm.

After the rain of arrows passed, blood soaked the ground. Wen Chou, with eyes red as if to burst with blood, still clenched his teeth and ordered, leading the army once again towards Yellow Sky City.

As the territory developed, Yellow Sky City had undergone several expansions and now its four walls were two thousand meters long and dozens of meters high. Calling it a giant city would not be an exaggeration.

Above the city walls, within each battlement, six hundred Heroic Female Guards drew their bows and shot arrows, felling enemy after enemy. The Hundred Battle Guards, who had reached the Fifth Rank, were even more remarkable, able to take enemy lives from a thousand steps away.

Unfortunately, this was a legion-scale battle. The opposing side had deployed two hundred thousand troops. Even divided into four groups, there were still over fifty thousand per side. Six hundred Heroic Female Guards were like a drop in the bucket, utterly incapable of stopping the enemy’s advance.

"Charge with me!"

Wen Chou led a detachment of Iron Rod Cavalry Camp soldiers, carrying cloud ladders and sprinting to the base of the city wall. Disregarding the arrows raining down like a storm, they set up the cloud ladders and began to ascend, with him, whose Physical Attribute had reached a hundred points, leading the charge.

However...

"BOOM!!!"

A deafening explosion, like thunder, caused everyone’s ears to ache severely.

Wen Chou’s pupils contracted, and he quickly flipped to take cover, but it was still a step too late. A bolt of thunder struck down upon him from above, leaving him dizzy and disoriented, his ears ringing, his Qi Blood in turmoil, and his limbs going numb. He tumbled down from the cloud ladder.

"RUMBLE RUMBLE!"

But this was just the beginning. The sound of thunder seemed like a signal, triggering a chain reaction. A deluge of thunderbolts crashed down, accompanied by a rain of fire, annihilating countless Han Army soldiers, leaving no trace of their bodies.

"The Iron Rod Army Iron Cavalry Camp has been killed by the Yellow Turban Mage!"

"The Iron Rod Army Great Halberd Camp has been killed by the Yellow Turban Bombardier!"

"The Hebei Foot Soldiers have been killed by the Yellow Turban Bombardier!"

"The Yellow Turban Bombardier can now level up..."

Above the city walls, more than ten Yellow Turban Mages raised their Magic Wands high, chanting Spells, and summoning bolts of Heavenly Thunder and Fire to strike the enemy. They inflicted massive casualties within the enemy ranks.

There were also more than ten Yellow Turban Bombardiers hidden within the battlements, unseen, who threw Sky Bomb Pills. Their power was comparable to the Thunder Strike Skill, causing explosions within the enemy lines and an untold number of dead and wounded.

To the left and right of the watchtowers were two tall towers shining brightly, drawing even more powerful Heavenly Thunder and Fire to bombard the enemy ranks. The offensive power and damage range far exceeded the Yellow Turban Mages and Yellow Turban Bombardiers – they were the Civilization Wonders known as the Yellow Heaven Thunder Tower and Yellow Heaven Fire Tower.

Compared to ordinary structures like the Arrow Tower, the Thunder Tower and Fire Tower had much greater power. Their blasts of thunder and flames were incomparable to crossbow bolts, and even a top-tier warrior like Wen Chou had just been blasted off the ladder by a Thunder Tower.

"Damn it!"

"It’s the Yellow Turban Mages!"

"Magic Type Soldiers, along with the Thunder Series Towers and Fire Law Towers!"

Even with mental preparation, the sight of the intertwined thunder and fire, along with the grim faces of several Lords inside the rear camp, betrayed a bit of regret.

Only Chen Yi gritted her teeth decisively: "He has just constructed the Civilization Wonders and can’t have recruited many Magic Type Soldiers. Push forward, we must break through this city and conquer his territory, no matter what!"

Having said that, she turned her gaze to Zhang Ying and Wang Jie at her side: "I don’t believe he has that many Thunder Towers and Fire Towers. We will attack from all four sides and escalate the pressure. Wang Jie, dispatch your Five Generals and their personal soldiers. Don’t hesitate, the academy will reimburse you for all losses after the war."

Heeding her words, Wang Jie’s expression changed, but ultimately he clenched his teeth and agreed, "Alright!"

"BOOM!!!"

Before the words even settled, another explosion of Heavenly Thunder poured down, accompanied by a ten-yard Thunder Talisman and dozens of Sky Bomb Pills, exploding into brilliant lightning among the Iron Rod Army ranks, engulfing the figures and their anguished screams.

"Hua Mulan has used the Special Skill - Solid as Gold Soup!"

"Hua Mulan has used an item - Heavenly Thunder Talisman!"

"Hua Mulan has slain the enemy Hero - Wen Chou!"

"You gain 75,000 Experience Points, 8,650 Reputation Points!"

"Hua Mulan gains 155,000 Experience Points!"
