Chapter 1006 - 614: Hell Pit Meat Grinder, Golden Limit! (Part 2)

Chapter 1006: Chapter 614: Hell Pit Meat Grinder, Golden Limit! (Part 2)

His battle qi of the Golden Tier Troll Descendant, combined with his arm strength, almost made him unable to hold onto the horse-cutting saber.

Major General Guan Huchi saw his opponent block his spear and shouted, "Good! Try another spear!"

Turning his horse, fiery battle qi rose from his body, making him appear enveloped in flames as he charged at Viscount Gossack again.

"Golden Limit, battle qi outflow!

Gossack is in danger!"

The Count of Naples on the fortress gate tower had a somber expression, silently clenching his fists.

However, he sensed several deep qi currents from the Dawn Legion firmly locked onto him, making him hesitate to rescue.

"This man has at least Golden Limit-level strength, where did the Dawn Legion gather such a master?"

At this moment on the battlefield, Viscount Gossack gritted his teeth, swinging his sore arm.

Knowing it was a life-and-death moment, he concentrated all his battle qi onto the horse-cutting saber, facing Major General Guan Huchi with the courage to risk everything!

"Clang!"

A longer sound of clashing.

"Crunch!"

Two Golden-level strongmen crossed paths.

A long horse-cutting saber spun in the air and implanted in the ground before thousands of demon army at the fortress gate.

Viscount Gossack spewed blood, used his last bit of strength to hug the demon warhorse’s neck tightly, and drove the horse back toward his battle group for retreat!

In just three rounds, the Calamity Sun Demon Country’s two Golden Viscounts were one dead and one heavily injured.

No matter the outcome of the war, Major General Guan Huchi’s fame would soon spread alongside this battle throughout the Calamity Sun Demon Country battlefield!

At this point, the sun had risen behind the Dawn Legion’s formation, further glorifying Guan Huchi standing alone on horseback in front of the enemy as if he were a deity.

At Hell Pit Fortress, the Calamity Sun Demon Country soldiers’ morale dropped dramatically!

"Hahahaha!

Can Hell Pit not even bring out a demon brat with Golden Limit strength?"

Major General Guan Huchi mocked audaciously at the frontline.

The Count of Naples’ face was gloomy, "Order the archers to block the enemy and have all outside soldiers retreat!"

Seeing the soldiers outside retreat toward the fortress, Major General Guan Huchi waved his long spear, deflecting the arrow rain aimed at him, fearlessly urging his steed toward the fortress.

Meanwhile, the Dawn Legion sounded their rousing horn just in time.

The grand assault on Hell Pit Fortress was finally about to begin!

The army pressed forward across the line, stopping within the 300-meter range of the fortress’s long-range bed crossbows.

Three torrents broke out from the battle array, advancing toward the fortress in a wedge formation.

In the center were nearly ten thousand fearless summoned creatures from various summoning series professions and various alien race prisoners from the slave camp.

The left and right flanks were the second and fourth main battle groups who successfully requested combat.

Many officers of the Dawn Legion were strenuously preparing for this siege battle.

A soldier’s worth can only be demonstrated on the battlefield; while the siege main force suffers significant losses, the accumulated combat achievements are also the most substantial.

Thus, during the pre-battle planning, the battle group commanders contended fiercely before Major General Ning Danxin.

Fearless and skilled Major General Guan Huchi strategically attracted most of the attacks for the siege troops.

The battle qi of a Golden Limit strongman notably damaged the fortress stone gate.

In the midst of various magic and arrow rain attacks, Major General Guan Huchi was still able to strike the stone gate with battle qi.

The Count of Naples on the gate tower saw this and ordered: "Concentrate the magic energy giant crossbows on the left and right sides for attack!"

Under the operation of eight robust Troll Descendants, four arm-thick magic energy giant crossbows shot towards Major General Guan Huchi near the fortress gate with a buzzing sound.

Perceiving danger, Major General Guan Huchi leapt from the Silver Pegasus, dodging two crossbow arrows below, but he couldn’t avoid the two above.

Once again, he unleashed his battle qi, swinging the long spear rapidly in rotation.

Under the high-speed cutting of battle qi, two Demon Iron Giant Crossbows were layer-by-layer shaved off, neutralizing this wave of attack.

However, human strength is ultimately limited.

After challenging the formation alone and resisting the garrison alone for so long, Major General Guan Huchi finally exhausted his strength.

But when everyone thought he would retreat, his descending body sprang from the Silver Pegasus into the air, charging straight at the stone wall.

Using the support from the stone wall, Major General Guan Huchi leapt thirteen to fourteen meters high, slashed out a fiery battle qi toward a tower on the left side of the fortress fifteen to sixteen meters away.

The unstoppable Golden Tier battle qi dragged a long tail, instantly destroying the tower.

The demon descendant archers from the tower screamed miserably, falling down the tall city walls, the consequences need not be further described.

After performing this astonishing feat, Major General Guan Huchi finally retreated back toward his battle group.

The Dawn Legion troops welcomed this hero’s safe return with their greatest cheers, and the siege troops’ morale instantly peaked!

A large-scale war involving nearly three hundred thousand troops, in its early stages, had essentially become the performance show of this Golden Limit strongman alone.

This shows the tremendous influence middle-high tier strongmen have on a war in the Era of Myth.

This is merely a Golden Limit strongman; Fang Zhou cannot help but think of Ning Danxin, such a Glory Champion Strongman, and the Legendary Crowned Strongmen above them.

How great could the lethality and deterrence they generate be?

Fang Zhou’s heart was filled with longing.

.........

After Major General Guan Huchi’s return, the first wave of attacks by the Summoned Creatures Legion and the slave camp finally began!

Two streams of black iron wrapped in disordered colors in the middle pierced straight at the fortress, over ten thousand fearless summoned creatures served as the first batch of cannon fodder troops.

Under the Hell Pit Fortress, arrows rained down.

Several thousand alien race prisoners from the slave camp, carrying giant shields and shielding the rams, pushed trebuchets and long ladders, hanging ropes soaked with fireproof oil, rushed forward desperately under the supervision of the battle oversight team.

After the flanking legions charged up, within fifty paces of the fortress quickly became a death zone!

Hailing giant stones and crossbow arrows filled the sky, various magic from the mage corps under the protection of heavily armored infantry fell intensively like rain.

A giant stone smashed down, turning several slaves or demon descendants into pulp.

Every giant crossbow arrow launched simultaneously impaled several heavily armored soldiers.

Those hit by fire oil or wide-range magic spells from mages were even more tragic.

Some hit by Fireball Skill screamed endlessly as they were burned alive.

Some frozen by Ice Arrows fell and shattered into pieces.

Some struck by Thundercloud Skill were electrocuted stiff before watching themselves fall to death.

The summoned creatures and slaves that fortunately climbed the walls with ladders and ropes were pierced one by one by the garrison’s spears protruding from the fortress.

Occasionally encountering a few stronger combatants, they could last somewhat, but were soon killed by the arriving demon descendant officers.

As time dragged on, when the siege battle continued into the afternoon, the front of the fortress had become awash with blood.

Both sides’ archers and mages had already changed batches time and again, while the sturdy fortress stone gate showed several cracks from the constant battering by the magic energy ram and trebuchets.

On the Dawn Legion side, occasionally small groups of elite soldiers breached the walls under the leadership of high-tier strongmen.

But each time they were repelled under the calm command of the Count of Naples.

Retreat was a must; if the fortress garrison activated the magic energy shield, the high-tier strongmen trapped inside could only face a siege, with death as the outcome.

The battle continued to drag on.

Bones piled higher and higher beneath the city walls, the original summoned creatures and alien race slaves nearly depleted, yet Major General Ning Danxin showed no intention of halting.

Finally, even the elite main battle groups of the Dawn Legion charged forward.

The First Battle Group was badly battered, the Second Battle Group stepped up.

The Fourth Legion was crippled, and the Fifth Battle Group was dispatched.

Fang Zhou, under orders from the upper-level officers, also led the Calamity Team in launching an offensive.

With his undead creatures as shields and cannon fodder, the Calamity Team suffered no losses.
