As expected, the celestials didn't last long. When the time hit two o'clock in the morning, a lot of celestials had already retreated to replenish their energy.
Hitting this barrier was like hitting a ball of cotton.
They didn't give the damage they wanted to the target, and all their punches felt empty.
The celestials had never been treated like this, and the hot-blooded ones were already fed up with this way of war.
The youngsters thought the war would be like what their ancestors described.
Brutal and full of madness.
However, this war was strange.
Instead of fighting the blood clan members, they were the ones being massacred instead, and in just two hours, they lost as many as 50.000 celestials!
In terms of casualties alone, they already lost to the blood clan.
The young celestials didn't have much patience for this kind of meaningless attack, so they started to paddle, not being serious in their attacks at all.
The older celestials were still experienced in real-life battles, but they also knew that this wasn't a good thing.
They couldn't just continue to break the barrier when the barrier didn't even have signs of cracks or holes!
The marshal felt that they had to retreat first to replenish energy and if they could...
Let's drag the war until six o'clock when the sun rises from the horizon.
He didn't believe that when the sun rose, the blood clan would still be as tough as now.
However, just when the celestials wanted to retreat, Atherton contacted the second batch of blood clan soldiers numbering 100.000 people through the elder's telepathy.
[Get ready to attack. Don't leave the barrier, but you can hover around the island to get as close as possible to the targets.]
[As long as you don't leave the barrier, you can do anything!]
The 100.000 soldiers who hadn't joined the battlefield in the first wave immediately roared excitedly.
"Finally!"
"Let's go, let's go! Let's hunt these birds!"
"I'll be happy to kill at least eight celestials."
"The previous troops didn't kill that many...only three or five celestials at most."
"Then, we can target ten celestials. We are inside the barrier, anyway. We can kill as many as we want!"
"Hurry, hurry! Before these birds retreat!"
One by one, the blood clan members in the second wave spread their wings wide.
Then, they rushed to the edge of the barrier around the island, ready to shoot some 'birds' for breakfast.
These 100.000 people were all blood clan members who could manipulate blood, and they also had various long-range special abilities.
Each of them had a wide range of attacks to make sure that even if the celestials ran away, they could still target one or two slow ones.
The 100.000 blood clan members immediately filled the sky above the island, just right before they hit the crimson barrier that enveloped the whole island.
The merfolk who were hiding in the deep sea also quietly came to the sea area right beneath the island that was still protected by the crimson barrier.
With this, they didn't need to be afraid of sea monsters and beasts or celestials' sudden attacks.
The blood clan warriors made such a big move, but the celestials outside didn't hear anything and couldn't see anything because of the thick crimson barrier.
Some celestials with voyeur ability tried to peek inside the barrier, but they really couldn't see anything but blood mist from the barrier itself.
Only Zenith, who was controlling Jake's body, noticed the commotion outside, but because the barrier was still being attacked...
He thought that the commotion was because of the celestials' attack and not because of the blood clan making their moves.
Anyway, he was still hiding with Ainsley and the others inside this cave and he didn't have time to care about the situation outside.
On the other hand, Ainsley and the others saw the scene from Chantelle's voyeur broadcast ability, and Ainsley couldn't help but hold her breath.
She's finally going to see how these warriors hunt celestials from inside the barrier!
The person who carried Ainsley and her group's voyeur broadcast had already floated not far from the edge of the barrier in the sky.
From this distance, they could clearly see the dense white dots several meters behind the barrier.
Some celestials were even so close to the barrier that they almost plastered their whole bodies to the barrier!
Just when Ainsley was watching these celestials who lacked war awareness, Atherton's voice sounded in everyone's mind once more.
[Go. Reduce the number of celestials as much as you can!]
Atherton's voice had just fallen when the blood clan soldiers raised their hands.
In the next second, the blood residue in the sea around the island suddenly moved like small snakes and this blood quietly blended with the dark night.
The controlled blood slowly soared to the sky and turned into ropes, targeting the nearest celestials to the sea surface.
The celestials' attention was on the barrier, and no one thought there would be any sudden attack from the sea.
Before these children who lacked war experience noticed something, the blood rope had already tied their feet and instantly dragged them to the sea!
SWOSH!
The rope was so strong, and it tugged the celestial at such fast speed, so fast that the celestials didn't have time to struggle when they were already dragged into the sea.
Even before their bodies touched the sea surface, countless sea monsters and beasts who smelled the scent of blood from the blood rope had already rushed into the air.
GRAB!
STAB!
SLASH!
