The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 698 - 380 Breaking Through the Encirclement

United Army command center.

The Snake-man general asked, "Using a large-scale earthquake to destroy the mice's supply storages and troop transportation tunnels is indeed an unexpected good strategy.

But the problem is, for the mice, such tunnels are easy to dig, not to mention they have such vast numbers."

"That's why we're going to strike immediately," Sweet said.

"Consecutive earthquakes have made the mice panic, and the biggest support in their hearts is that food. Now they can't manage that much."

Dawn is about to break.

Soon, messages came in through the channel.

The United Army immediately broke open the city gates and launched an assault outward.

On the city wall.

A Night Watcher guided and assisted others in casting a large combined spell to launch an attack.

Rain composed of acid rushed towards the mice.

Though there were so many mages constructing it,

Such a large spell, even forming a storm of acid rain, had extremely limited harm.

But for them, it was enough.

"It hurts so much!"

"My fur is on fire!"

"My tail, my ears!"

Various screams filled the mice ranks.

The light green rain droplets falling from the sky hit them, causing a stinging burning sensation.

The weaker parts of their bodies even began to emit white smoke.

Although it was mostly only causing superficial wounds, there was no stopping the rain droplets from being too numerous and too dense.

The damage wasn't high, but the pain and fear it brought were several times more.

The mice immediately panicked.

"Evil Rat Gust!"

Clearly, the mice weren't easy prey either.

The priests and some mice with certain casting abilities also began to band together.

This was the power bestowed upon them by their deity.

As they united, a large amount of wind began to blow.

The acid rain clouds began to disperse.

Seeing this, the mages on the walls immediately canceled the maintenance of their magic power.

The acid rain disappeared.

But the United Army's troops had already broken into their midst.

The panic had no time to settle before greater panic arrived.

"Trample!"

A squad of six Centaur Knights charged in a triangular formation, piercing into the center of the mouse horde.

The mice's attacks clattered against their armor, at most causing some cosmetic damage.

They couldn't harm them in the slightest.

The charge left a bloody path behind them.

With a command, they raised their hooves high and stomped down hard on the ground.

It might not have been an earthquake, but it was as good as one.

Instantaneously with the trample, the surroundings shook violently. Although the range only covered the immediate area, it was enough.

The mice, along with the exaggerated shaking, fell into chaos, collapsing into a mess.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Centaur Knights once again formed up and turned to charge out.

This was the most terrifying sight of the Light Guardian's knight troops on the battlefield.

How could one imagine the unstoppable charge of the knights?

It's not just the Centaur; all Night Watcher knights could achieve such effects, especially after the development of Beast Taming.

Many warhorses had been granted status screens, possessing great physical strength, and unless in extreme long-term combat, they would not exhaust themselves.

This allowed both Centaur and knights to recklessly charge around in heavy armor, seemingly tireless.

The intimidation effect was extremely exaggerated.

Just like now.

Facing the besieging mouse United Army, it was undoubtedly using few to resist many.

Although the Night Watch provided significant support here, the reinforced troops were limited.

But with all this limited support concentrated on the knights and Centaur troops,

the extraordinary effect was produced when facing a large number of mice.

The relentless knights charged wildly, carving bloody paths. No matter how the mice tried to block, it was futile.

All who dared stand in their way, including the mice's giant rats, couldn't resist being torn to pieces.

Although the fatalities they caused were limited,

the pressure in their hearts was maximized.

This was the most advantageous tactic against the mouse horde.

Pressure, or rather, fear.

It's very difficult to truly annihilate the mice on a large scale because of their sheer numbers.

Often their numbers are ten, even dozens of times more than the enemy.

Only by applying exaggerated pressure and causing panic in their hearts can good results be achieved.

That's the situation now.

Consecutive earthquakes, collapsed transport tunnels, food storage warehouses, coupled with the enemy's unrestrained posture.

The scales of victory were rapidly tipping towards the United Army. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Rats, evil mice above, bring out..."

The Rat Priest who was comforting and spiritually strengthening the mice hadn't had time to finish his words when a Night Watcher suddenly appeared behind him and slit his throat.

To showcase their intimidation, the Night Watcher even directly severed the mouse's head entirely.

Then they threw the head into the mouse horde and vanished.

"Ahhh, he's dead!"

"Run, terrifying!"

This immediately erased even the little bit of courage the surrounding mice had barely managed to muster.

More and more mice panicked.

The worst part was forming momentum.

Panic-stricken mice would sweep along the originally courageous ones, causing them to panic and scatter in all directions.

The chain of attacks was about to break the encirclement.

Watching this from the city wall, Kana nodded, turned, and left the wall.

"There's no problem anymore, we should leave here and do what we need to do."

...

The operation to clear the mouse encirclement was swifter than expected, with the accumulated pressure causing rapid collapse.

While the number of mice they exterminated was actually limited, perhaps less than ten or twenty percent.

But dispersing the encirclement was enough.

Clear the mouse corpses, restore city operations.

Recruit soldiers again.

More supplies from the Night Watch were being transported here.

This place was temporarily becoming a transit point for the United Army.

Seeing the black fog being driven away on the map, and based on the map obtained from Shecui City.

Planning for the next action was beginning.

"There are a total of three cities connected to Shecui City, one has already been confirmed overrun by mice.

The survival chances of another are slim if not exceptionally lucky.

The only one still strongly resisting is this one, Lava City, because it is a medium-sized fortress city, and they have a somewhat exclusive strong resistance.

They even sent a batch of supplies to us earlier, so they should still be resisting."

In this way, the situation was clear.

Determine the situation of the defense of the other two overrun cities, dispatch troops to aid Lava City.
