Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

The Ghost Riders rushed over, but the Shadow Guards remained unusually calm.

They accurately locked onto the target and patiently waited for Cao Huaibao's orders.

Indeed, now there are only the Three Shadow Groups led by Cao Huaibao, with about a thousand people, on the altar.

The altars, spread over a two to three kilometer length, seemed sparse, but the ghost riders were not afraid.

When the Ghost Knight approached to within fifty meters, Cao Huaibao roared: "Comrades, attack!"

He then waved the staff in his hand, releasing powerful spells.

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss…”

The sound of the spell was like a summons, and immediately afterwards, the guards' spells also responded.

“Bang bang bang bang bang…”

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss…”

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”

The ghost knights in the front row fell one after another, and the scene was in a mess.

"Evil demons retreat, why is the power of the Shadow Guard so amazing?"

The ghost knight hiding behind was crawling on the ground, cursing.

The Ghost Knight bombardiers that followed raised their dark weapons and cast spells at the altar.

“Boom boom boom boom…”

The altar was instantly blown into dust by the magic, and the guards hid in the defensive wall. . .

---

A ghost knight captain took a look and quickly pulled out his dazzling star wand, roaring: "Light of Purification——"

The demons climbed out from the dark cracks in the abyss and launched another charge.

"Blood sacrifice, blood sacrifice, blood sacrifice, blood sacrifice..." The voices of the demons echoed in the air, filled with arrogance and resentment.

Cao Huaibao stuck his head out, the flame of revenge burning in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "Warriors, in the name of light, crush the evil..."

Faced with the evil spells, the warriors extended their star wands and shining swords out of the glorious barrier.

"Bang bang bang bang bang..." The power of the stars bombarded like thunder, and the demons fell down in groups, as if they were repelled by divine power.

"Boom boom boom boom..." The demon's dark energy ball continued to roar. Many warriors were blown away by the shock wave, but they quickly stabilized their position and stood up again.

Some demons crawled on the ground, casting eerie spells, confronting the paladins of the eight-winged elves. The two sides were fighting fiercely, and their strength was equal, so neither side could gain a clear advantage.

"Holy light..." Nakajima Tokutaro held the crystal ball tightly and stared at the fighting on the battlefield. He put down the crystal ball and said to the division commander: "Commander, it may be difficult for one legion to break through the barrier of darkness. Perhaps I should send another legion to join the battle. It will be disadvantageous for us to delay any longer."

Hongo Yoshio nodded and responded, "I agree. Let's fight quickly and let the light illuminate this land."

"Holy Light..." Nakajima Tokutaro nodded and immediately ordered the 12th Holy Light Legion to follow.

The number of demons suddenly doubled, and the eight-winged elf paladin on the battlefield suddenly felt a huge pressure. But Cao Huaibao did not ask for help, and gritted his teeth to support it. There was no other way, such a battle was already very easy for him.

Thinking back to the time when they were outnumbered and had few resources, they still fought the demons to their lives. The pressure now was just a small thing for him.

Cao Huaibao thought he could bear it, but Li Yunlong couldn't just sit back and watch. At this time, Li Yunlong was in the command tower at the rear, holding a crystal ball of light, observing the situation on the battlefield.

"Damn it, the demons have sent more troops. Zhang Dabiao, notify Shen Quan and ask him to lead the Second Holy Light Corps into battle."

"As ordered."

Zhang Dabiao quickly notified the messenger.

Soon, Shen Quan led the Second Holy Light Corps into the trenches. The participation of the Second Corps caused even more heavy casualties among the demons.

The two regiments charged together, and the team was so dense that the battle became extremely easy! There was no need to cast spells accurately.

"Dark curse, damn eight-winged elf..." Nakajima Tokutaro couldn't help but curse.

He had already sent two Holy Light Army troupes of the entire regiment to the battlefield, but he never expected that the Eight-Winged Elves would have reinforcements.

"Dark Curse, what tricks are the Eight-Winged Elves playing? I have never seen such a fighting method!" Yoshio Hongo put down the crystal ball of light and said with a depressed face.

Indeed, according to his experience, the eight-winged elves always act within their capabilities. Today's tactics are simply a joke. No matter how much strength you put in, I will counter it with the corresponding strength. If this is not a joke, what is it?

Yoshio Hongo asked: "Dark Curse, which elite unit of the Eight-Winged Elves is this?"

The chief think tank at the side reported back: "Your Excellency the Great Magician, I have sent spies deep into the Misty Forest, and there will be news coming soon."

“Demon Flame…” Yoshio Hongo looked at his chief think tank, his eyes flashing with determination, “Nakajima Tokutaro, summon another group of elf guards to join the battle. I want to see how many shadow armies these alien visitors have hidden. If we don’t force them into a desperate situation, we will be trapped here and unable to move forward.”

"Yes, sir..." Nakajima Tokutaro bowed and accepted the order, then rushed to the Tower of Mysticism to convey the new order.

Soon, another group of elven guards appeared on the edge of the battlefield, like a sea of ​​stars, gathering into a brilliant green. They let out earth-shattering war cries, brandished shining swords, and charged towards the alien defense line. Their momentum was like a landslide, terrifying.

Magical shells rained down like a rainstorm, and the guardians danced in the light of the explosion, like shooting stars across the night sky.

Zhang Dabiao stared at the battle situation with a frown on his face. "Grand Mage, our strength has been greatly depleted! Should we consider letting the Elf Guards join the battle?"

Li Yunlong shook his head and sighed, "No, we already have two elite teams. Adding another team would be a risky move. We are outnumbered, and their magic shells will surely hit us accurately."

Zhang Dabiao anxiously asked, "How should we deal with this?"

Li Yunlong said in a deep voice: "Wait for the right time. If we are really at our wit's end, the Ninth Guard will step forward."

Zhang Dabiao nodded silently after hearing this. Once the Ninth Guard appeared, even if the entire alien army attacked together, it would be difficult to shake this line. The shocking power of nearly three thousand magic light arrows made Zhang Dabiao fascinated, and he was eager to witness the true strength of the Ninth Guard.

I just hope these invaders from other worlds will not let him down. If they retreat easily, this battle will lose a lot of its luster.

On the battlefield, blood and fire intertwined, and the battle was still fierce. However, the guardian's defense line was obviously crumbling.

The elves became more and more excited. A commander drew out his dazzling magic sword and shouted: "Warriors, the other side of the alien world has the treasures you have always dreamed of, endless treasures and glory, go forward bravely..."

After hearing this, the elves became even more motivated and charged towards the enemy with roars.

In a flash, the two sides were only thirty steps apart.

Cao Huaibao was extremely anxious and shouted sternly: "Warriors, release the magic explosive stone mines to blast them into ashes..."

In fact, he didn't need to say much, the soldiers were already ready. When the enemy stepped into the effective range of the stone mine, they detonated it without hesitation.

Instantly, countless dark lights rose from the defense line and fell into the elves' team with a roar.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Within fifty steps ahead, all life was purified, and the momentum of the elves' advance dissipated into nothingness like foam.

Success is a failure.

"Damn...what kind of stone mine is this? How can a weapon from another world have such destructive power?"

Yoshio Hongo was stunned and could hardly believe what he saw!

Nakajima Tokutaro was also extremely surprised, as if he could never close his mouth.

He had never seen a stone mine of such power before in his life.

Nakajima Tokutaro was heartbroken: "Master, the power of this stone thunder is something I have never heard of!"

The Elf Chief of Staff said, "Your Excellency, Division Commander, I have heard that alien races have refined a kind of shadow blasting stone with a wider explosion range, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. Today I finally got to see it."

"Curse this dark fate. How dare this hateful enemy army use such vile evil weapons to fight against our sacred army? Pass the order down, have the artillery mage prepare the nether fog bombs and wait for my command."

Yoshio Hongo roared loudly.

"What's the matter?"

The demon chief of staff was shocked and quickly responded: "Your Excellency, the division commander, the Supreme Lord of the Upper Realm has ordered that the use of the Nether Mist Bomb is prohibited unless we are in a desperate situation. Now is not the time to use it."

Indeed, the demons were determined to win this time, so they carried Nether Mist Bombs.

However, the Lord from the upper realm has ordered that it should be avoided as much as possible unless it is a matter of life and death.

In addition, they carried a limited number of Nether Mist Bombs, which they had intended to use to capture the fortress.

More importantly, this evil object is listed as a taboo in all major magical conventions and its use is strictly prohibited.

Hongo Yoshio knew this very well, but at this moment he was furious. Didn't the enemy have psychic blasting stones? He also wanted to let the enemy see the terrifying power of the Nether Mist Bomb.

He roared at the demon chief of staff: "Follow orders. I just asked them to prepare them, but I haven't decided when to use them. Why are you panicking?"

"As ordered!"

The demon chief of staff quickly agreed loudly.

Nakajima Tokutaro said: "Your Excellency, the division commander, it is indeed not appropriate to use the Nether Mist Bomb here. The enemy occupies the high ground and the wind is strong. Once the Nether Mist Bomb is fired, it may be blown away by the strong wind."

The strong wind might make it difficult for the Nether Mist Bomb to achieve the desired effect, so it seems a bit wasteful to use it here.

"it is good……"

Hongo Yoshio said, "Let's observe for a while! If we really have no other options, we can consider using it again."

The enemy warriors on the front line had no idea that the demons were about to use Nether Mist Bombs on them.

At this moment, they all tried their best, bombarding with spiritual arrows at a distance and resisting with spiritual explosive stones at close range.

The two sides fought back and forth, and the battle was in full swing. Both sides were suffering continuous losses.

But because the enemy was on the defensive, and the demon army was attacking cities and conquering territories, the demons' casualties were always heavier than those of the enemy.

Yoshio Hongo saw this and gnashed his teeth in anger.

"Curse, why are these enemy forces so powerful?"

In fact, except for the psychic explosive stone launcher that has not yet been activated, the enemy's psychic arrows and explosives are actually superior to their troops.

In fact, it’s not that the enemy is unwilling to use the psychic explosive stone launcher, but that this thing requires considerable skill and it is extremely difficult to deliver it accurately.

If we conduct an actual combat drill, there simply won't be that many explosive stones to consume.

In short, it cannot bear the loss.

Therefore, even if the enemy captures a large number of psychic explosive stone launchers, they will not use them easily under normal circumstances.

After hearing what Hongo Yoshio said, Nakajima Tokutaro felt as if his heart was being cut into pieces.

Of the four combat regiments under his command, three have already been engaged in the battle and have suffered heavy casualties. When they retreat later, there may be only one regiment left.

In other words, his legion was about to lose more than half of its troops.

Nakajima Tokutaro gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency, Division Commander, why don't we activate the Nether Mist Bomb?"

Indeed, this unprecedented war left Nakajima Tokutaro exhausted, and his demon army suffered an unprecedented defeat on the mysterious continent.

Under the dim moonlight, the evil spirit chief of staff hurriedly advised: "You must not do that, Lord Demon. If you use up all your magic power now, what will happen when we reach the Holy Light City? The light messengers guarding the city alone have made it difficult for us to move forward. If we reach the Holy Light City, how can we easily break into it?"

After hearing this, Demon Lord Hongo Yoshio's eyes were filled with anger: "What do you think?"

The evil spirit chief of staff offered a suggestion: "Your Excellency, those warriors who call themselves 'Holy Guardians' have always been proud of protecting all spirits. We can temporarily withdraw our troops and go to the nearby villages to capture innocent people. Let them go in front, and our warriors follow closely behind. Breaking through the Holy Guardians' defense line will be as easy as passing through a veil!"

"Exquisite..."

Demon Lord Hongo Yoshio suddenly understood and immediately gave the order: "Send people to the nearby villages to capture the creatures immediately. The army will rest and station here."

In the bright and shining camp of the Guangming Army, the hero Li Yunlong suddenly opened his eyes.

"Why is this so? Why did the evil spirit army suddenly withdraw on the eve of the decisive battle?"

Zhang Dabiao was also full of doubts. There must be a sinister conspiracy behind this unexpected retreat!

"Captain, this is not an ordinary matter! The evil spirit must be planning a vicious plan!"

Li Yunlong said helplessly: "I understand, I'm afraid the evil spirit is going to unleash the flames of hell again, right?"

However, the following situation made Li Yunlong even more confused.

The evil spirits not only paused their offensive, but also set up camp and defended themselves, as if intending to stay for a long time.

"It's really weird. What kind of scheme are they planning? What are these evil spirits planning?"

In the past, under such circumstances, the evil spirits would have sent out an army of Sky Wings to attack.

But at this time, the evil spirits lost their air advantage. What are they planning?

Zhang Dabiao speculated: "Captain, maybe the evil spirit is waiting for reinforcements?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Yunlong immediately burst into a heroic laugh: "Reinforcements? That's the best! Just one legion is not exciting enough for me. If there are two legions, it will be a magnificent battle!"

Indeed, now that he possesses the Nine Heavens Divine Power, Li Yunlong longs for the thrill of fighting against two legions.

The two armies ceased fighting and the evil spirits set up camp.

Some evil spirits were sent to surrounding villages to look for targets.

However, the nearby villages had long since become deserted, and the evil spirits only found desolation and silence.

The next day at noon, the evil spirit returned without bringing back any captives.

Demon Lord Hongo Yoshio was furious. He learned that the 59th evil spirit army was about to arrive. If he still failed to penetrate the front line by then, wouldn't it become a joke?

The 59th Evil Spirit Legion was not a subordinate of their First Legion and would certainly regard them as weak.

Isn't it ridiculous that an entire legion is unable to capture a bright line of defense?

Demon Lord Hongo Yoshio firmly ordered: "Nakajima Tokutaro, time is running out. I will hand over the important task of the assault to your brigade. Tell the warriors to put on their masks and resist the dark energy."

"As ordered..."

Nakajima Tokutaro agreed solemnly.

When the evil spirit chief of staff saw this, he knew that the situation was hopeless.

Soon, the evil spirits gather again and a new fierce battle is about to begin.
