Chapter 1484 - 949: Defection

Chapter 1484: Chapter 949: Defection

The counterattack of the Void Rift is being effectively stopped.

The battle became intense and fiercely contested at times.

"Switch to the Armor-Piercing Cone! Aim for their knees and arm connections! They’re slow in movement!"

Heavy Armored Warriors from Night Watch and the valiant veterans among the Guards hoarsely roared in anger.

They decisively abandoned the cumbersome Tower Shield and switched to the heavy Giant Sword more suitable for chopping, the War Axe gleaming with cold light, and the Armor-Piercing Cone flashing deadly glints, specifically designed for dealing with heavy armor.

A Heavy Armored Warrior from Night Watch let out a deafening roar, leaping high into the air.

Dangerously evading the sweeping massive Bone Hammer, the War Axe in his hand, burning fiercely, struck down with a force capable of splitting mountains!

"Crack!"

A heart-stopping crisp sound directly cleaved off one of the Crusher’s unusually thick arms entirely!

Dark purple "blood" gushed out uncontrollably like a fountain.

"Ah——!"

Nearby, a Guard failed to dodge and was swept by the whistling hammer wind of another Crusher, letting out a heart-wrenching scream as he flew backward.

The Solid chestplate instantly deeply dented, leaving a shocking impression.

"Healer! Over here! Quickly!"

Immediately, a comrade roared urgently, his eyes wide with urgency.

At the rear, several Night Watch Healers and Priests accompanying the army, marked by prominent Life emblems and holding short Magic Wands or Holy Emblems, diligently exerted all their efforts with solemn expressions.

Warm and soft white light or vibrant green Natural Energy, like sweet dew, continuously sprinkled onto the front lines, miraculously healing the fierce wounds swiftly and tirelessly dispelling the minor Void erosion like a festering bone plague.

A range-wide gold "Prayer of Tenacity" Aura spread warmly like ripples, invigorating every combatant stained with blood, slightly reducing the heavy fatigue.

"Hold on! Brother!"

A quick-reacting Guard promptly helped up the fallen comrade, using all his strength to drag him to relative safety where he handed him over to the Healer.

Without hesitation, he roared once again, rushing back into the smoke-filled, thunderous frontline, nimbly picking up a Long Spear from the ground, and, like a fierce tiger descending from a mountain, rejoined the boiling battlefield without hesitation.

In the sky above the battlefield, various ear-piercing sounds filled the air, enough to tear eardrums apart.

The clanging sound of heavy Metal striking shells, the relentless slicing sound of blades cutting flesh, the sharp whistle of energy arrows piercing the air, the spine-tingling screams and howls of Void Creatures, the blood-thirsty roars of Warriors, the suppressed cries of wounded soldiers, the hoarse command shouts from commanders frantically yelling...

This hellish symphony of sounds merged wildly into a tempestuous and exceedingly brutal war symphony.

The choking smoke, pervasive dust, fluid splashing everywhere mixed with the strong bloody scent and the unique sulfurous stench of Void Energy pervaded every inch of the air like a thick poisonous fog, causing people to almost suffocate.

The ground underfoot had long been trampled, soaked into a strange and viscous purple-black mire.

Yet, in this chaotic and bloody purgatory, the scales of advantage gradually yet steadfastly tipped towards the Night Watch and the Alliance Army Guards.

Night Watch Warriors, with equipment far superior to their opponents, the near-unparalleled precision brought by datafication, and skillful squad tactics polished to perfection through countless trials, firmly controlled every rhythm and critical juncture of the battle.

They were like truly impregnable reef barriers, coolly and efficiently dividing and mercilessly weakening the waves of Void Creatures’ strikes one after another.

Facing these seemingly endless Void tides, the current Night Watch elite had long grown accustomed and handled them adeptly.

From the inception of Night Watch, their core mission was born to counter the Void, so many years ago, they were already continuously countering the threat of the Void.

As the stronger Vanguard Army arrived, this intensity of confrontation increased more and more.

How to quickly eliminate the Void nests?

How to efficiently extinguish them, how to firmly dominate the battlefield, they had long developed mature, efficient experience.

The current Night Watch, as long as their level reaches a certain tier, are basically all experienced Void killers.

And Alfred’s Guards, though initially caught in unavoidable panic, exhibited slightly awkward coordination as expected.

However, under Night Watch’s effective tactical guidance and always leading the charge with strong encouragement, their inherent unyielding spirit and resolute determination to defend their homeland were completely ignited and inspired.

On the battlefield, the brave and fearless performance of comrades greatly influences the behavior of other Warriors.

Just like any unit, it’s impossible for everyone to be highly motivated, but as long as half are vigorous, the others get infected and influenced.

If half are willing to die, the other half are similarly inspired to become braver without fear of death.

The reverse holds true as well.

Thus, in every battle involving Night Watch, Night Watch always rushes to the forefront, showing admirable courage without fear of death.

Their various brave performances greatly impact less experienced soldiers, inspiring more courage, so every battle involving Night Watch naturally reflects a combat skill level far above average standards.

These Guards, like thirsty sponges, eagerly learned Night Watch’s combat style, clumsily yet diligently covering each other, mutually supporting one another.
