Chapter 924 - 573: Reinforcements Arrive, Counterattack Begins, Battle Merit Ranking Unlocked! (2)
Before the beastmen attacked, the development of Beast Fighting City had already reached its limit.
This war is also our continuous effort to squeeze the beastmen’s territory, prompting them to launch an attack to consume their power."
"Now that the beastmen’s army has been exhausted by me, if the Dawn Legion can reinforce early, we can advance the counterattack plan!
When can your Dawn Legion dispatch troops?
We at Beast Fighting City have already prepared the necessary logistics materials." Lv Jinglei asked with anticipation.
"Lieutenant General Lv, rest assured!"
Ning Danxin said: "The three main ten-thousand-man battle groups that we mentioned before are ready and can be teleported for reinforcement at any time."
"Great, great!" Lv Jinglei couldn’t help but praise, and then continued to ask: "What about the high-tier forces?"
"Besides me, another Glory Champion level expert from the Dawn Legion, Ping Haining, is also participating in the battle.
Six Golden Combat Professionals and one Golden Magic Professional will also join the army!"
"Good!
Ping Haining, I remember this general is known as the Erosion Blade, right?"
Lv Jinglei calculated the strength the Dawn Legion could provide.
"Yes." Ning Danxin nodded.
The Erosion Blade is a rare profession in the Assassin series, akin to a Death God in the shadows.
Moreover, this profession has a special bonus against Magic Professionals, and their battle qi can easily break through their mana shields.
Without the mana shield, Magic Professionals are as vulnerable as lambs awaiting slaughter when faced with the Erosion Blade up close.
Furthermore, the Erosion Blade has exceptionally high magic resistance.
When facing various magic attacks, it can avoid the vast majority of spells.
Even if a spell cannot be dodged and hits, the strong magic resistance reduces the loss to a minimum.
Lv Jinglei sat in his seat, contemplating, planning on having Ping Haining, the Erosion Blade, and Ning Danxin, the Berserker, do something to break through in the war.
At this moment, Ning Danxin took a sip of the specially prepared Clear Heart Tea and suddenly thought of something, saying: "By the way, Lieutenant General Lv, I want to inquire about a young man.
I’m not sure if you are aware of him?"
Lv Jinglei came to his senses and asked with interest: "Oh, who is this remarkable young man that has caught your attention?"
As he spoke, he was quickly thinking.
A young man closely associated with Major General Ning Danxin.
On the Beast Fighting City battlefield, only one person matched Ning Danxin’s description.
So without waiting for Ning Danxin to reply, he smiled and said: "Are you talking about Fang Zhou?
The young Undead Mage pioneer, an honorary model of Sea City Military Academy, the youngest Silver-level Caster in the Longxia Federation in the past twenty years."
Hearing Fang Zhou’s lengthy titles, Ning Danxin paused slightly, then smiled and said: "Yes, it’s Fang Zhou.
When I first learned about him, he was just an apprentice-level new recruit at Sea City Military Academy.
It’s only been two years, and he’s already graduated early from the academy and won so many honors.
Even Lieutenant General Lv, you’ve heard of him."
Lv Jinglei laughed: "I can’t help but know him.
Fang Zhou’s talents are simply extraordinary.
I first heard about him when he resisted the power projections of the three Great Demon champions at the Abyss Demon Tower base.
Our Beast Fighting City’s Major General Yang Boyue has recommended him to me multiple times.
Such an exceptional talent, graduating from Sea City Military Academy, choosing to come to our Beast Fighting City battlefield, I definitely have to pay attention."
After thinking, Lv Jinglei continued: "I remember Fang Zhou has been stationed at Tiger Suppression Fortress for the past six months.
Utilizing his artificial undead army, he’s becoming stronger with every battle, repelling several large-scale attacks from the Beastman Alliance Army.
As long as the enemy’s Golden-level experts don’t intervene, no one can take Tiger Suppression Fortress from Fang Zhou.
Then the Planning Department noticed this and decisively transformed Tiger Suppression Fortress into the most important logistical gathering point on the front line, effectively relieving the defensive pressure of several surrounding fortress points.
With such outstanding achievements, the Planning Department of Beast Fighting City has reported him as a rising star on the battlefield to me several times.
When the war ends, he will certainly receive his reward."
Ning Danxin blinked, listening with great interest to Lv Jinglei’s introduction of Fang Zhou’s achievements.
"Lieutenant General Lv, are you saying that even at the Silver Tier, Fang Zhou can still control dozens of same-tier artificial undead creatures?
This is far more powerful than other summoning professions."
Lv Jinglei nodded, confirming: "Of course, these are all documented in battle reports and video crystals.
One must admit, Undead Mages are incredibly suited for the battlefield.
With bodies everywhere and the limitless potential of the artificial undead skills, as long as there’s enough mana and resources, they can summon a powerful artificial undead army anytime, anywhere.
Human armies get exhausted, injured, and suffer from morale decline.
But those undead creatures have no such concerns.
I even suspect that if the beastmen attacking Tiger Suppression Fortress hadn’t retreated decisively and continued with their piecemeal tactics, Fang Zhou’s undead army could continue to grow stronger.
He alone could bear the defense of an entire fortress.
A one-man army, it truly is."
Ning Danxin nodded and said: "I haven’t seen Fang Zhou in a long time.
This time, with the opportunity to reinforce Beast Fighting City, I intend to take a good look at him.
If Fang Zhou adapts well to the battlefield environment, I plan to take him to the Calamity Sun Demon Country battlefield for experience after the Beast Fighting City battlefield beastmen horde dissipates.
Fang Zhou is the most talented and brilliant young Professional I’ve ever seen.
By then, Lieutenant General Lv, don’t be reluctant to let him go."
Lv Jinglei smiled and shook his head, saying: "Your Dawn Legion is incredibly domineering, how could you not be able to recruit someone you’ve set your eyes on?
But if you want to recruit such a genius like Fang Zhou, your reinforcements had better make significant efforts and kill more beastmen this time."
Ning Danxin heard this, and she and Lv Jinglei exchanged a knowing smile, everything understood without words.
........
Two days later, inside Beast Fighting City.
The cross-realm teleportation gate, which had seen fewer people due to the war, was today surrounded by guard troops.
Accompanied by a large number of magic stones being thrown into the energy chamber, a vast magical energy surged at the teleportation gate.
"Boom!"
A large surge of magical energy infused the cross-realm teleportation gate, the void behind the gate rippling like water until a larger-than-usual spatial passage opened.
"Boom boom boom!"
Rows of soldiers came charging out of the cross-realm teleportation gate.
They swiftly left the gate and marched forward to line up in the open space ahead.
One group of soldiers after another poured out from the cross-realm teleportation gate, fully armed and dressed in lightweight metal armor.
Compared to the stationed troops in Beast Fighting City, these incoming soldiers were more grandly equipped.
The weapons and armor of the ordinary Black Iron soldiers had already reached standard enchanted white quality.
Their weapons, aided by battle qi, carried greater lethality.
Their weapons and armor were standard issue, as army gear, not the best materials but not the worst either.
The cost is cheaper than other equipment on the market, but the effect is about the same.
Moreover, as army gear, when these soldiers got closer, their equipment could resonate, slightly boosting performance, which was invaluable.
As all soldiers stepped out of the cross-realm teleportation gate, the special operations forces that followed were even more formidable.
A unit of cavalry emerged from the teleportation gate, the Silver Pegasus Knights of the Dawn Legion, each a Silver Tier Combat Professional.
A full two hundred knights lined up neatly, lavishly equipped, and bristling with killing intent.
