Chapter 1168: Silk Domain!
The vanguard wave of the Holy Race had numbers exceeding the imagination of the people in the city, causing them to be filled with despair.
"It's over, we cannot win… We're doomed!!! We're going to be killed!! It's over!!"
'We're so dead, this time, we're are going to become food for the Holy Race!!"
"..."
The soldiers looked to the sky in horror, seeing the dense numbers of flying soldiers. Their expressions turned ashen, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and were filled with terror. Many of them had just been trained for a short time, and their fighting morale was not high. Faced with such a scenario, they fell into despair easily.
Standing atop the wall, Annie looked at the number of soldiers covering the skies, her brows furrowed, "There are too many enemies. It'll be difficult for me to deal with all of them!"
If Annie were to go all out and utilize her Domain, it would be possible for her to kill tens of thousands of enemies. However, to fend off a million soldiers, it was too much to ask.
"Don't worry, watch me!!" Yue Zhong laughed, and waved his hands, "Bai Yi, do it! Blast them out of the skies!!"
"Yes!"
With a single order, all throughout Jiao Beast City, cannons appeared, pointed to the skies, and adjusted their aim swiftly.
At that instant, they all fired out mercilessly, forming a rain of bullets that blasted at the skies.
Under the barrage of attacks, many flying Holy Race soldiers were instantly obliterated, their bodies ripped and shredded.
Bai Yi was Yue Zhong's treasure, thus, the enemies she hunted was considered Yue Zhong's, and a huge amount of life force was absorbed by him, quickly healing his wounds.
Life force was the simplest and purest of energy in a biological life form, with the ability to strengthen the physique, heal the soul, and nourish the spirit. Because of this, it was able to help a person evolve continuously, finally achieving the God-Devil Physique.
There were so many cannons within the city, and under Bai Yi's control, they were able to exhibit 200% of their power. Anything beyond the 3km area of the city was directly buffeted by the attacks, causing the Holy Race soldiers to turn into mists of blood.
"What?! So many Holy Races are being killed?!"
"So many!!! So many are being killed!! This Yue Zhong is killing so many Holy Race warriors!! Too formidable! They can't even get close. Maybe… we might be able to win by following him!! Maybe we can truly wipe out the Holy Races!!"
"..."
As they watched the countless soldiers being slaughtered in the skies, not able to get close to the city, many despairing soldiers suddenly felt that there was hope.
The soldiers who had already been turned into puppets began hollering at the rest of the human soldiers, "Attack!! Wipe out those stinky worms!!! Attack now and victory will belong to us, humans!!! By killing them, we will have a chance at survival!! Otherwise, we will all be killed without a burial ground!!"
"Kill!!!"
"Kill!! Kill!! Kill!! We're invincible!!"
"..."
Under the barking of those puppets, the rest of the human soldiers finally manage to muster some courage and will to fight. They raised their weapons and began to act according to their training, getting behind cover and firing at the soldiers in the skies.
With Bai Yi's incredible aim, the humans were able to exhibit a decent result, hitting each and every Holy Race soldier who burst apart. This raised their confidence and morale.
Slowly, the rest of the human soldiers began to join the battle, attacking the soaring Holy Race soldiers. They no longer felt like domesticated livestock, instead, they began to feel like soldiers subconsciously.
As for the Holy Races, they were not trashed either, but savage creatures. Even with so many of their comrades being killed, they did not seem to have any fear, instead, readying their own particle rifles to fire back at the city.
A number of the beams blasted upon the city wall, punching many holes into it, and a few human soldiers and equipment atop the walls were also destroyed as a result.
The city wall was meant to keep out humans, thus, while it was effective against human experts, to the weapons of the Holy Race, it was not much.
Countless beams fired out continuously at each side, and both sides began to suffer more casualties.
However, as the human soldiers had cover, while the Holy Race soldiers were flying in the skies, they were the best for target practice. Hence, the Holy Race was suffering more, without achieving much.
Amidst the cruel and intense battle, the Holy Race soldiers had no choice but to land on the ground and spread out, in order to minimize casualties.
Annie stood beside Yue Zhong, seeing that he had not yet acted personally but had already caused so much damage to the enemies, and her eyes were filled with respect, "As expected, he is something else in terms of combat and warfare."
Furthermore, through this battle, while the soldiers in Beast Jiao City could not be considered elites, they would have gained the confidence and will to fight the Holy Race. They were no longer trash and domesticated livestock, but a strength that could be utilized.
At the center of the 5 armies, the Silver Wyrm King looked at the Jiao Beast City, his eyes flashing with a look of greed, "Strong! I thought that woman was just a big-breasted no-brain beauty, but who knew she could train trash to such standards? I really want to eat her now!!"
The Scarlet Wyrm King piped in, "The probing has ended, let's do it for real!!"
The first million Holy Race soldiers were just sent to probe the city, they wanted to see just how strong Annie was. In their estimations, such a number should have been sufficient to force Annie to act, then they could assess her strength and act against her to capture her alive. They were not naive to think that a million soldiers would be enough to defeat her.
The Silver Wyrm King nodded in agreement, "Sure!"
"She's out!! The Type 8 human powerhouse is out!!"
Just as the Silver Wyrm King was about to give the order, all of a sudden, Annie, who had been staying still atop the city center, flew out and charged into the midst of the Holy Race warriors.
Annie raised her hands, and numerous transparent silk strands shot out to pierce the heads of those Holy Race soldiers, directly killing them.
The silk strands were like Annie's clones, as long as anything was in her range of perception, the silk strands could easily penetrate the enemies and kill them.
With her full strength on display, it was like a sweeper, clearing waves after waves of Holy Race soldiers. Huge numbers of the Type 5 soldiers were slaughtered like ants, without any means to resist.
All Type 8 powerhouses had the terrifying ability to manipulate atmospheric energy, and against lower-ranked opponents, it was a huge advantage. As long as Annie had enough time, she could easily wipe out this million-strong army.
The Silver Wyrm King watched Annie slaughtering those low-leveled Holy Race soldiers, and was not furious, instead, he felt excited, ordering, "Very good! Very good!! She's finally made her move!! Her strength is at the high-Type 8 realm, which is commendable for a human. However, she's not our match! Everyone attack! Catch her alive!!"
As long as they could get her, even if they had to lose 8 million Holy Race soldiers, they would not frown. After all, a Type 8 human expert could cause the Great Dragon Empire a headache if she chose to hide and use guerilla tactics. If it came to that, only the Type 9 Emperor could deal with her.
If the Type 8 powerhouse was well-versed in stealth and did not act, instead, just hiding for long without any signs, then even a Type 9 powerhouse would be powerless. After all, a Type 9 powerhouse was only halfway to the True God stage, and not yet invincible.
"Good! Move out!!"
The moment the Silver Wyrm King spoke, the 3 million Holy Race soldiers immediately soared out towards the city.
The 5 Kings brought their strongest subordinates and turned into 14 beams that hid their aura and wore ordinary equipment, hiding among the soldiers as they headed towards Annie's location.
Not long after, the 3 million-strong army surged towards Annie.
Silk Domain!
Facing that endless waves of soldiers, Annie's gaze turned chilly and activated her Domain. At that instant, countless transparent silk shot out from her body, containing principles and laws as they shot out, capable of slicing even the fleshy body of a Type 9 powerhouse.
The silk strands reached out to about 3 km around her, slicing and cutting constantly, with her at the center, and any unfortunate Holy Race soldier that got close enough would be chopped up into fine pieces. In just a single second, over 90,000 Holy Race soldiers had been sliced apart.
