CHAPTER 106: CHAPTER 106, THIS IS A PERSON’S BATTLEFIELD, TOTAL ANNIHILATION _1

Li Xiaozhen sat atop the Dragon Knight, looking at Jiang Chen.

Instantly, she flew into a rage. Damn Swordsman! This guy actually annihilated an army of ten thousand. He absolutely cannot be left alive, she thought, then commanded, "Fly a hundred meters into the sky! I want to launch a Super Long-ranged Attack on this person. He must die!"

Just as Jiang Chen was thoroughly enjoying the slaughter, he sensed danger from the sky.

FLASH...

The spot where he had just stood erupted in a series of explosions; he had narrowly escaped death.

Jiang Chen looked up at the sky. It was that woman, the one with the Gatling Weapon. Her Offensive Power was pretty formidable too.

But she won’t hit me, he thought.

Jiang Chen continued to systematically kill, sweeping through the battlefield, leaving a trail of white light wherever he went.

Black Phoenix said, "Jiang Chen, only you can take down the Dragon Knight."

"No, she’s too far away. It’s a Super Long-ranged Attack. My Sword Qi isn’t that long, and it seems like she’s discovered something!"

Is this woman doing this on purpose? She’s actually a hundred meters away, Jiang Chen thought. This is ridiculous!

Over on Black Phoenix’s side, there were also Super Long-Range Attack Class Destroyers. Several laser cannons shot towards the Giant Dragon in the sky, but their aim was off, missing the dragon.

Fortunately, Li Xiaozhen didn’t linger for long. Seeing that she couldn’t attack Jiang Chen, she could only fly towards her city.

"Haha... Fantastic! We’ve won a major victory in our first battle!"

"We’ve completely annihilated an army of twenty thousand men."

"It wasn’t us who annihilated them; it was Jiang Chen. When it was our turn to engage, I turned around to see that the Sakura Alliance’s ten thousand were all gone."

"Jiang Chen is too awesome. He single-handedly annihilated ten thousand from the Sakura Alliance."

"Badass."

"It’s unimaginable that one person took down ten thousand."

"It seemed like it only took about a minute. It was quicker than chopping vegetables."

The Dragon Zone Alliance Heroes were beside themselves with excitement. They had won their first battle and completely wiped out their enemy.

Such a feat was beyond imagination.

The rest looked at Jiang Chen, casting admiring glances his way.

Ruo Li gave a thumbs up. "Junior, you’re incredible! I didn’t see it coming—you facing an army of ten thousand alone and killing them all."

"It’s you who’s incredible. Your healing was top-notch."

GIGGLE...

Ruo Li laughed. "Want to try something else?"

Black Phoenix coughed. "Alright, since we’re victorious, let’s go back and have a victory feast."

Sure enough, Black Wind and Ruo Li had a thing going on!

「Sakura Alliance War Room.」

Commander Kujiuchi Osamu looked at the Alliance numbers: 89,541.

In other words, the ten thousand they had sent were now dead. Kujiuchi Osamu could not believe that an army of ten thousand had just perished. He then looked at the numbers of the Han Union.

The same was true.

What on earth was happening? Why, when two Alliances joined forces against the Dragon Zone Union, did the Dragon Zone Union’s numbers remain at one hundred thousand without any decrease?

Were all the warriors of the Dragon Zone Union that strong?

That simply couldn’t be possible.

Could these figures be fake?

"We joined forces with the Han Union to fight the Dragon Zone Union, so why are our numbers dwindling while the Dragon Zone Union has only lost a few dozen?"

Is it possible that the Han Union has betrayed us?

That can’t be either. The Han Union also lost ten thousand. If they had betrayed us, their numbers couldn’t have decreased by that much.

So what on earth happened? Is every member of the Dragon Zone Union a Black Phoenix? Each one an HP Recovery Warrior?

"Ten thousand of us went into battle. Why has not one come back? All died on the battlefield."

「Han Union Conference Room.」

Li Xiaozhen was reporting on the battlefield situation.

Those around her were slack-jawed in shock.

"One person slaughtered ten thousand from the Sakura Alliance?"

"How did he do it? Could he be a Curse Master among Magicians, capable of using Forbidden Curses?"

"It’s that Swordsman. That Swordsman is very strong."

"Even so, a Swordsman couldn’t do that. Even if they just stood there and let him attack, he’d still need to swing his sword ten thousand times."

Li Xiaozhen said, "This guy has been conserving his strength from the start. He has a Skill that can unleash hundreds of Sword Auras. Sword Qi Surging that’s invincible! Each Sword Aura can instantly kill a Hero of the same Level; not even a warrior can withstand his Sword Qi Attack."

"Not only that, his Sword Qi Attack has a very wide range. I observed his fighting style, and within a hundred meters, they would be struck by his Sword Qi Attacks."

"But that’s not the most important thing. The most important thing is that these Sword Auras can autonomously attack enemies. On the battlefield, there’s simply no way to defend against them."

"Can you imagine that scene of slaughter?"

Li Xiaozhen’s expression was somber. On the battlefield, she had specifically watched Jiang Chen’s combat method, especially his Sword Qi Attack, and that’s when she realized his specialty. She also understood that Jiang Chen’s attack range was within a hundred meters.

Commander Li Hongyi asked, "According to what you’re saying, we can’t confront him head-on at all. If he’s there, nobody can withstand him."

Li Xiaozhen nodded. "Yes, with him there, it’s impossible to kill anyone from the Dragon Zone Union. This person is unbeatable in close combat, especially in large-scale battles; he’s terrifyingly strong."

"You’re a Super Long-Range Attack Class; can’t you do anything?"

Li Xiaozhen shook her head. "No. He seems to have a Perception Skill, enabling him to cunningly dodge the moment I launch an attack. He can also Teleport like a Mage. Aiming to attack him from a super long distance is utterly impossible."

Li Hongyi appeared thoughtful.

"Ally with the Dragon Zone Union. Right now, the Nordic European Union and the Mei Zone’s Union have joined forces. With Angels and Dragon Knights combined, we’re simply no match."

"Only by allying with the Dragon Zone Union do we stand a chance. Even if it’s not for first place, securing second would suffice."

Li Xiaozhen nodded.

That’s really all that could be done now. By allying with the Dragon Zone Union, when facing Angels and Dragon Knights, perhaps they could take second place. If Jiang Chen were to be killed by the two Alliances, even first place could be possible.

The Dragon Zone Union was celebrating with great fanfare. Those who wanted to drink were drinking, and those who wanted to eat meat were eating meat.

「In the conference room.」

All the Legion Commanders were present. At that moment, a Dragon Knight entered the conference room.

"Commander, the Han Union has sent someone over, wanting to discuss an alliance with us," he said.

Black Phoenix nodded. "Let him in."

If you can’t beat them, join them—the Han Union really are fair-weather friends!

Soon, a man entered the conference room.

"Commander Black Phoenix, I come by the order of Li Hongyi to discuss an alliance with the Dragon Zone Union. We hope to cooperate with you to jointly face the Dragon Knight Legion and the Angel Legion."

Black Wind said, "Aren’t you with the Sakura Alliance?"

"That was in the past. We have seen your strength and naturally choose to align with the powerful."

Black Wind nodded. "We can ally to deal with the Angels and Dragon Knights together."

Black Wind had a clear idea. By bringing the Han Union on board, their numbers would double, significantly increasing their chances of victory and the probability of taking first place. This was even more in line with the interests of the Dragon Zone Union.

Jiang Chen was somewhat speechless.

They are just banding together like this? Can’t they have some backbone? They are the losers, after all, he thought.

Jiang Chen said, "We can form an alliance. However, next, we must attack the Sakura Alliance. You will send twenty thousand troops, and we will send twenty thousand. With forty thousand combined, we will wipe out the Sakura Alliance."

"Is this also the Commander’s intention?" the envoy asked.

Black Phoenix nodded. "Indeed, that’s also my thinking."

"Alright, I will go back and report to my Commander."

The envoy left.

Black Phoenix asked, "Why the rush to attack?"

"It’s not about being in a rush. The Sakura Alliance has lost ten thousand troops and might very well cozy up to the Nordic European Union. It’s better to attack them before they can ally."

Black Phoenix said, "Although the Sakura Alliance has lost ten thousand men, they still have ninety thousand. Their strength remains, and besieging a city is not as simple as you think."

"To besiege a city, we first have to break through its defenses, bringing down the Protective Shield before we can attack."

"Once we embark on a siege, we will be exposed to the Archers, and we will lose many warriors."

Jiang Chen nodded. "I know. We’ll use the Knights’ shields to push forward."

"You’re thinking of using the Han Union’s men?"

Jiang Chen smiled.

Use the men of the Han Union to lead the charge, breach the city walls, and then rush in to kill them all.

"That’s a good plan."

"Indeed, attack the Sakura Alliance and let the Han Union’s men take the lead, sparing us the hardship."

"But will the Han Union’s men agree to this?"

"Li Hongyi is not a fool; he can easily see the stratagem."

Jiang Chen laughed. "If they don’t do it, they can only end up in last place, and we will attack the Han Union instead."

Black Phoenix was shocked.

Attack the Han Union? This guy...

When Li Hongyi heard the report from his subordinate, he furrowed his brows. "Forty thousand troops to attack the Sakura Alliance? Do you think this plan is feasible?"

"It’s feasible. If that Swordsman is there, we just need to break through the city, and the Sakura Alliance will be doomed."

"It’s feasible, but I fear the Dragon Zone Union may not be so kind-hearted."

"Could this be a trap, waiting for us to dispatch twenty thousand people, then have the Dragon Zone Union encircle and kill us?"

"Quite possible. The Dragon Zone Union has always been cunning."

"We first aligned with the Sakura Alliance and now with the Dragon Zone Union. They might set a trap and then annihilate us."

Facing the proposal from Jiang Chen, Li Hongyi was weighing the gains and losses. Twenty thousand troops were neither too many nor too few.

Li Hongyi said, "It shouldn’t be. I understand Black Phoenix to some extent. He’s probably thinking of forming an alliance. If it comes to a siege, they will definitely want us to lead the charge while they support from behind."

"That is absolutely unacceptable."

"Indeed, since it’s an alliance, we must attack together."

"As expected, people from the Dragon Zone Union cannot be trusted."

Li Hongyi turned to his sister. "What do you think?"

Li Xiaozhen nodded. "It’s possible. We should at least eliminate the Sakura Alliance first. Besides, if the city’s Defense Cover is breached, I believe that Swordsman will definitely charge in, and the Sakura Alliance will be finished."

"That way, even if we lose, we can still secure fourth place. Plus, we’ll have to face the Angels and Dragon Knights in the future. I think they won’t intervene for the time being."

Li Xiaozhen continued, "Moreover, to defeat the Angels and Dragon Knights, we must rely on the Dragon Zone Union. Once we defeat them, as long as that Swordsman is dealt with, we could still aim for first place."

Li Hongyi nodded. "That’s exactly what I’m thinking. The Dragon Zone Union relies on the Swordsman. Once the Dragon Knights and Angels are defeated, that’s when we’ll clash with them. If we can kill that Swordsman, we can claim first place, or at least second if not."

The other Legion Commanders nodded in agreement. This was a sound strategy.

Their plan was to defeat the Sakura Alliance, then battle fiercely with the Angels and Dragon Knights, and finally, have a showdown with the Dragon Zone Union.

The Dragon Zone Union and the Han Union officially allied.

「The next morning.」

The two sides gathered a combined army of forty thousand and headed towards the Sakura Alliance’s battlefield.

Li Xiaozhen walked beside Jiang Chen and asked, "Are you really a Swordsman?"

"Is there a problem?"

"Swordsmen aren’t as strong as you. We have Swordsmen in the Han Zone too, but you’re almost like a Super Long-Range Attack Class."

"My sword is just a bit longer, that’s all."

"It’s not a bit longer; it’s way too long," she remarked.

Ruo Li chuckled. "He has an even longer one."
