Chapter 310 - 310 The Bloodthirsty and Cruel Demon King of Terror Has Broken Through the Summer Leaf

310 The Bloodthirsty and Cruel Demon King of Terror Has Broken Through the Summer Leaf

This was the second interception battle against Kang De after the Elven Expeditionary Force launched a surprise operation against the capital of Goethe, Red Maple City.

In order to delay Kang De’s advancement as much as possible and test and consume his methods and trump cards, the expeditionary army staff used the vast war area between Red Maple City and Valentine as the experimental field of war.

The elite servant troops of the various vassal countries were the first to be pushed into the battlefield. The Savada Satellite Kingdom was the first sacrifice. Its troops were destroyed easily. The decision-makers of the expeditionary army thought that such a sacrifice was valuable because they could judge and understand Kang De’s combat method from the war information.

Inadvertently, this war became colder and crueler.

The huge and terrifying war mobilization system of the elves conscripted the elite forces of the various countries to the battlefield and used the soldiers and young men of the vassal countries to replenish the losses of the war. Even the low-level soldiers of their own country were among the sacrifices. What ensured that this mobilization system was effective was an increasingly efficient and transparent administrative system, and the huge military logistics system of the Twilight Dynasty ensured that they could appear in their combat positions on time.

The command and decision system from the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army, Sylvan Keller, determined the deployment of these cannon fodder. Therefore, war became mathematics. The decision of the commander and staff officers was actually to decide how many people would die in this battle and how many people would die in the next battle.

The interception and restraining operation against Kang De were actually to send countless soldiers to their deaths, and the deaths of these soldiers would determine how many elves would survive in the future.

Ever since the Harlem interception, they had made deployment adjustments to the next wave of defense line as quickly as possible to ensure that no matter which army encountered Kang De, they could complete the military mission they had been given.

It was consumption, probing, threat, and restraint.

For this, they urgently sent battle plans and war supplies to the second defense line.

The supply team did not care about the consequences and used magic methods to consume the lifespan of the beasts and alchemical mechanisms. They sent enough heavy shields and spell scrolls to the front-line troops. The mages obtained the latest battlefield spellcasting guide.

Swamp Spell, Slow Spell, Mind Explosion, Electric Arc Domain… The principle of spellcasting was to interfere with the enemy’s high-speed mobility and even spatial teleportation. The super heavy cavalry formed by the war rhinoceros had already been lined up. The heavy infantry lined up, the mages helped restrain them, and the super heavy cavalry was ready.

The expeditionary army headquarters racked their brains and strategized to strengthen the second defense line.

The effect was brilliant.

They successfully reduced the duration of the battle to six minutes.

A total of 20 M2HB heavy machine guns threw countless APEI169 bullets over the head of the enemy army in a few minutes. They fired from miles away. The bullets attacked with an almost vertical trajectory. They were silent. Only death fell from the sky. Only the top archers could hear the small wind above their heads.

Heavy bullets, high charge, armor piercing, burning, and explosions were instantly completed. He was a hero among special ammunition.

At the beginning of the attack, the heavily armored elite infantry did not see death falling from the sky at all. Even if they realized it, it was very difficult to raise the heavy shield that was too heavy and had to be supported on the ground. Even if they forcefully raised it, it was very difficult to maintain their courage in the almost endless rain of death and continuous explosions.

Fixed shooting, search shooting, round shooting, frontal shooting, diagonal shooting, longitudinal shooting… Horus started the engine. This harvesting machine that sprayed death continuously changed its location. The Transformers with technological foundations that surpassed modern society did better than the machine gunners in the First World War, because the gorilla, who relied on the strength of its body to fly for a short time, was reporting the real-time coordinates to him!

Although there was almost no precision to speak of when superfiring and he could only rely on the experience of the machine gunner and the general coordinate calculation to determine the attack area, who asked the enemy to be so close?

In the process of assembling the weapons, Horus also modified the gun structure on his own and further increased the firing speed of the machine gun.

As for the greatest factor restricting the firing speed of the machine gun, the problem of the barrel overheating…

It was not a problem at all!

This was because, in this battle, Kang De’s side had used epoch-making war technology—the limited version of the cold machine gun mode, Sword Saint Snowfall!

Therefore, he won.

It only took six minutes.

The heavy infantry formation was completely wiped out, and the war rhinoceroses in heavy armor were all dead or injured. The war rhinoceroses ridden by a few officers were covered in elite enchanted rune heavy armor and could resist the attack of the 12.7mm Explosive Bomb to a certain extent, but that was only barely enough. After Horus approached and fired two more armor-piercing and high-explosive enchanted RPGs, half of their bodies had also turned into a pile of rotten meat.

The entire battlefield was filled with blood.

It was even more tragic than the battle between the Savada Satellite Kingdom’s troops in the Harlem District.

Kang De stepped on the soil that had become soft from being soaked in blood, leaving a string of cruel footprints as he walked to the battlefield. Intestines, broken limbs, heads, and minced meat were everywhere. There were also intact heavy shields, as well as heavy shields that had been punched with a hole. Broken armor, intact armor, and thousands of people were mixed together in pieces.

This was an Asura Arena.

The mages also fell and died. Most of them were riddled with holes by the quadruple M2 anti-air machine gun. Because the shield had a support upper limit, it was difficult to resist continuous bombardment and shots. A few high-level mages were also beaten down by the gorilla and Sword Saint Snowfall—it was almost a perfect cooperation.

Hillmelia pressed her sword and looked at the battlefield, an extremely serious expression flashing across her face.

As an expert who had walked out of the War God City, it was normal for her to experience battle formations. She had also thrown herself into the battlefield and experienced bloody killing. It was not as if she had not personally experienced the battle of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people dying. The horror was not inferior to the scene in front of her.

Tens of thousands of magic projections, violent flames that burned the human body, violent explosions that tore through the human body, and extremely cold freezes that shattered the human body. Intertwining lightning bolts that were like sharp blades, a violent wind that corroded everything, and even the curse that seized souls… The harvest net that intertwined had also caused countless lives to fall.

In terms of tragedy, destructive power, commotion, and deterrence, they were all stronger than here.

However, when Sword Saint Snowfall looked at this scene in front of her, she felt shocked and even… afraid.

Due to the huge battle of 100,000 people, spells filled the air, and magic devices shook the sky and roared. The iron cavalry rushed forward, and a rain of arrows was like a waterfall. The ferocious warriors rushed forward. The weather was like the end of the world. Iron hooves bombarded the ground, and there were mages who firmly chanted. It was a battle of honor and courage, the struggle of wisdom and decision, and the confrontation of will and belief. Therefore, the tragic death was worthy of praise, so sacrifice seemed romantic and precious.

Therefore, a war of that scale would be recorded in the annals of history and forever remembered and recited by the world.

However, now, the death of more than 10,000 soldiers, the destruction of an army that could be said to be powerful, the lack of courage to charge, the chanting of a mage, and the determination to sacrifice. There was only an alchemical chariot that aimed dozens of pipes at the sky at a 45-degree angle, emitting a series of loud bangs.

There was only dust that filled the sky and countless metal awls that rushed into the sky at an extremely fast speed. Then, more than ten thousand people died from the metal rain and serial explosions falling from the sky. It was as if the gods had shot them to death in the clouds. The enemy was a few kilometers away. Before they died, they did not even know who the enemy was or where the attack came from.

She only heard a series of rhythmic bangs. Every sound seemed to be the scream of death. Through the window of the alchemical chariot, she saw round metal shells thrown into the car like rain. There was even a wisp of green smoke. There were thousands of them, and they all looked identical.

She did not dare to think deeply about what that meant.

However, looking at this outcome, she still felt confused. Even if Kang De was on her side and won with irresistible force, it meant that she was more confident in saving Red Maple City.

She was only thinking.

If an alchemical chariot could annihilate an army in a few minutes, what was the meaning of such perfect and necessary qualities as courage, faith, honor, and will that had been passed down since the ancient era and recognized and admired by the various countries of the world?

What if… there was a second one?

“…What’s wrong?”

The call called Hillmelia back to reality. She blinked. “What?”

Kang De frowned slightly. “I just asked you. How long will it take you to adjust and rest to your peak state?”

“…Oh.”

Sword Saint Snowfall sensed it.

It was indeed very comfortable for her to join forces with the gorilla. The strongest enemy she encountered was not her match and was easily killed. She did not consume much energy and was not injured.

Or rather, the combination of helping Red Maple City this time was indeed extremely perfect. Kang De was in charge of transporting ammunition and leading Horus to space jump. When the enemy’s restraining spells shot over, they would also be instantly extracted and disintegrated by him. His iron son’s heavy machine gun, rocket launcher, and grenades dealt with ordinary soldiers like cutting grass. The gorilla and Sword Saint Snowfall were in charge of sniping and killing high-end combat strength. They were extremely efficient and cooperated extremely well.

Hillmelia replied, “Half an hour.”

“I’ll give you 40 minutes,” Kang De said. “It’s very important. You have to maintain your best state. If I’m not wrong, there are still many battles ahead. They’re specially here to intercept us.”

He looked at the heavy war beasts and heavy infantry, as well as the spell types of the mages. All kinds of signs indicated that these armies had come prepared and had clearly learned the lesson of the Savada Satellite Kingdom.

Hillmelia said with a serious expression, “They’re here to intercept and test your trump card?”

“Of course.” Kang De smiled coldly. “Let them try.”

Therefore, there were clearly still RPGs, automatic grenade launchers, and mortars. In this battle, the M2HB heavy machine gun was still the main weapon. From the looks of it, it was the right choice.

He looked at the gorilla. “What about you?”

The gorilla smiled. “I don’t need to rest! Just eat more!”

In this mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, she still ate happily with a large bag of fruits.

There were many cassava, mangoes, and so on in Africa. Kang De specially brought some for the gorilla.

“Then you should rest too. Eating is also rest.”

Hearing Kang De say this, the gorilla looked at him with her golden eyes and said seriously, “I think Kang De needs to rest more. Do you want to rest for a while?”

Kang De was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly.

“After this is over, I’ll sleep for three days and three nights.”

He patted the hood of the Hummer. “Get to work!”

With a clang, the Transformer transformed into a human and said in a low voice, “Father?”

Kang De’s eyes turned into flames of the Phoenix Vision that soared as he scanned the battlefield.

Sword Saint Snowfall and the gorilla wanted to rest for a moment. He was protecting this place and had nothing to do. He might as well clean up the battlefield. Shield armor that could resist large-caliber machine guns, enchanted weapons, magic items, and spell scrolls were all under the gaze of the Phoenix Vision.

And…

“I think not long after we leave, the elves’ scouts and spies will come here to ask for information and find clues. Our actions are all under the control of the Elven Expeditionary Force. In that case…”

He said, “Then let’s leave them with a huge surprise.”

More than an hour later, the Elven Expeditionary Force headquarters received the latest news.

The servant army from the Tuck City-State had already been destroyed.

The scouts and spies found the defeated army. These people also had a mental breakdown, but their failure shocked the elves even more than the Savada army.

An officer claimed to have encountered a long-range cover shot equivalent to two large arrow regiments, and almost all of them were explosive and flame arrows. That rain of arrows fell from the sky and could even penetrate the shield, wreaking havoc and destroying the human body. It shot into the head, shoulders, or back and exploded and burned. They once thought that they had encountered the destruction of the legendary hero, the Thorns Champion Arrow Regiment.

This was because only that legendary army would have such a terrifying storm-shooting speed and a luxurious style of not taking enchanted arrows seriously.

However, the commander and his advisors knew that the Thorns Champion Arrow Regiment was stationed in their homeland.

With the intensity of the battle of Goethe, there was far no need for an army of this level to go on stage.

So… what was going on?

Why had the range of the arrowless crossbows greatly increased this time? Moreover, they were stronger and there were more of them, and they were all enchanted weapons?

—Why did Kang De take out stronger attacks after we racked our brains and upgraded our equipment and tactics?

However, what shocked and angered the elves the most, and even felt a trace of fear, was not this.

Instead, it was the scene the scouts saw when they entered the battlefield after the enemy left.

“We saw a tower.”

“A flesh and blood tower formed by the warriors of the Tuck City-State, the elf officer’s teaching team, and the corpses of the warhorses.”

“The elves, the Tuck nobles, officers, and ordinary soldiers are listed from top to bottom. The head of the heavy rhinoceros is nailed to the ground. Thick and thick black liquid soaked through from top to bottom, soaking this tower and the ground. Raging flames curled and churned on this tower.”

“It’s easy to imagine what our enemy did during this period. Like the capital temple that the Cathayan was used to building, he piled the corpses into a tower and poured the black, evil, sticky flammable liquid from above, soaking it layer by layer.”

“Everyone said that it must be a hellish substance mixed with flesh and blood, like the blood of a demon, announcing his cruelty and victory to us. Then, he ignited this tower.”

“It’s difficult to extinguish the flames, or there’s no need to extinguish them, because the blazing flames burned with a bang, burning everything until the bones and ashes. Only the ferocious skeleton flashed in the flames, and flesh and blood peeled. There was black smoke and blood-colored light churning in the flames as if it was the wailing of the dead.”

“Everyone vomited and was angry about it. Such a cruel action is extremely rare in the entire war. The other party’s terrifying actions can’t be described as barbarism and bloodthirstiness. This is probably a demonstration and destruction and annihilation. The battlefield is covered in that black substance, igniting blazing flames and burning most of the scene. We can’t obtain any further information and clues from it.”

“The only thing we can find is the traces he left behind.”

“Apart from that tower, he also used the twisted corpse to lay out words. He also watered the black liquid and lit it. Many, many times, that corpse was spelled into words and burned with flames that seemed to be eternal. I believe this is a declaration left for us and everyone.”

“The words are like this.”

“I’m approaching you. I’ll find you. I want to kill you all.”

When the Deputy Chief of Staff finished reading the last words, all the elves in the military tent still maintained a dead silence. They looked at each other, but no one spoke.

“Isn’t this—” Sylvan Keller shouted, “a matter of course?”

“Why do you feel fear again?”

“Could it be that in our plan, this barbaric lunatic army from the Tuck City-State will obtain victory and kill Kang De? Could it be that in our plan, they’re destined to fail?”

“Why are you still afraid that everything is going according to plan?”

“Can’t the great Twilight Army do such an attack?”

“Is this level of bloody deterrence enough to make you afraid?”

“This army completed its mission and forced Kang De to put in more effort, consuming a large number of his arrows! The plan has succeeded! Moreover, it eliminated our previous guess!”

“He even began to destroy the scene. This is a sign of his timidity. He’s hiding some clues that might expose his true situation! Therefore, he’s using such a terrifying method to hide his uneasiness and weakness!”

“Therefore, outstanding elves, don’t stop! Continue to arrange the battle plan! Continue to modify the battle strategy! The Summer Leaf District is still far from Red Maple City. We still have more opportunities to try and make mistakes! We have to return what he did today a hundredfold. I want to engrave his threat on his tombstone!”

Lord of Dawn Light roared, “We’ll still win this time!”

Soon, another sentence was added to the banner in the military tent.

“The bloodthirsty and cruel Demon King of Terror has broken through the Summer Leaf.”

On Earth, Comoros, in the military camp near Domoni, Kang De and the Hummer appeared on the ground.

He dialed the satellite phone.

“Kirov.”

“…” The Russian on the other end of the phone was silent for a short while before probing, “Translate?”

At the same time, the arms dealer roared in his mind.

D*mn! D*mn! D*mn! D*mn!

—It’s only been more than ten f*cking minutes! Could it be that you’ve already captured those mercenaries?

“No! No!”

Kang De said indifferently, “I want to order goods.”

…
