Chapter 604 - 604 Dignity on the Tip of the Sword
604 Dignity on the Tip of the Sword
“That seal was also very terrifying. Even the crystal Giant couldn’t resist it and was forced to retreat on the spot. The magical power was no less than that of the chain. As expected of the Lord of Dawn, he has endless trump cards.”
This scene caused the spectating foreign races to draw in a cold breath.
The crystal Giant’s strength was obvious. It was one of the most terrifying existences in the divine realm. However, even such a powerhouse had been forcefully crushed by the magical power. It was too tragic.
As of now, no one dared to say that they would be able to block such an attack.
If they put themselves in its shoes, perhaps they would end up in the same situation.
The fear of Li Xiang in the hearts of many of the foreign races also became more intense.
“I’m done. My race will no longer participate in this operation! It was too dangerous! The Human race isn’t a pushover. This is fatal!”
“I’m not doing it either. I’ll just treat this as a show. Besides, the true powerhouses of our race haven’t arrived yet, and we haven’t brought our race treasure. If we attack now, we might not be able to do anything to the Lord of Dawn, and we might even get ourselves killed.”
After seeing the two consecutive battles with no results and even losing a large number of powerhouses, many of the foreign races had already given up. They were not prepared to fight.
Of course, no one would be willing to miss out on such a lively event.
It wasn’t only the Human civilians who liked to watch the show, the foreign races also liked it.
Even if they didn’t make a move, they could still see what the final result would be.
Wouldn’t it be a pity to miss such a grand occasion?
Whoosh!
On the battlefield, the layer of fog had already disappeared.
On the ground, there were corpses of Giants. They were piled up like mountains, and some of them had already been turned into pieces of flesh. Many of the corpses were covered in arrows, turning them into porcupines. Some of them were missing limbs, and it was obvious that they had been blown up by the Rune Bombs.
They had not noticed or even heard anything but now, these Giants were already dead.
The number of corpses of these Giants was probably in the hundreds.
But now, they were all dead.
“Are there any casualties?”
Li Xiang took a look, and a heavy expression flashed across his face.
Many of the warriors were covered in wounds. Some of them were missing limbs, and some of them were dead. There were around one hundred of them. One could imagine how intense the battle in the battle array had been. Even with the help of the battle array and the five halos, they were still not completely unharmed.
The destructive power of these Giants was too strong. It was impossible to completely block them unless all the warriors became stronger.
Even if they had aura skills, the damage reflection would also lose its effect.
“Twenty-seven died while eighty-three are injured. However, most of the injured won’t affect the battle.”
Zhao Sheng quickly said.
“I’ll take the dead warriors back to the Kingdom of Dawn. I’ll bury their bodies at the Great Wall of Iron Blood. As for the injured or those with missing limbs, they can enter my tower to recuperate. Those combat strength are not affected can recuperate now and continue forward.”
Li Xiang’s eyes flashed with a decisive look as he quickly made a decision.
“Yes! To be buried in The Great Wall of Iron blood is our greatest wish!”
Zhao Sheng nodded and did not say anything more.
With a wave of Li Xiang’s hand, all the warriors’ corpses were collected and placed into the tower for safekeeping. They would be buried at the Great Wall of Iron Blood when they returned. Some of the warriors who had already lost their limbs were also kept in the tower temporarily to recuperate.
It was not difficult for those who were injured to recover. The Kingdom of Dawn had the corresponding body regeneration potion.
However, one’s body would become very weak after taking the potion, and one could not continue fighting anymore.
All the small-sized worlds in the Tower of Stars could store life, so there was no problem to hide them in the tower for a short period.
At the same time, the corpses of the Giants were also stored in the tower. Some of the broken bodies were directly turned into nutrients, while the relatively intact ones remained.
Li Xiang looked around at the warriors. He could tell that their spirits were still firm, and their morale was not affected.
Li Xiang turned around and strode forward.
“Everyone, follow me! Let’s move forward!”
This return journey was destined to be filled with blood and fire.
There would be people dying or bleeding. There would be both from the foreign races and their race.
When Li Xiang decided to take this path, he had already prepared himself mentally. Not only he but all the warriors here were prepared for this. They had long since put their lives aside.
It would be a great honor to be buried at the Great Wall of Iron Blood.
Without any hesitation, they followed closely behind Li Xiang and continued to move forward. It was as if the previous encounter was just an ordinary fight. There was no fear, no retreat, and the steps under their feet were always firm and steady.
The conviction in their eyes grew stronger.
They didn’t need to take this path, but they did. They wanted the Human race to have the right to stand tall in this world, to have their dignity as human beings, and not to be reduced to the humiliation of being eaten.
Dignity was only on the tip of the sword, and the truth was only within the range of the cannon.
“What terrifying morale! It’s said that the Human race is prone to internal strife, but they can unite and burst out with unimaginable power when faced with external enemies. It seems that the rumors are right.”
“The most terrifying thing isn’t the morale of the army, but the leader of the Kingdom of Dawn, the Lord of Dawn. The strong brought out strong soldiers, while the weak and cowards only brought out the weak. I’ve heard a saying among the Human race, ‘An incompetent soldier is incompetent himself, but an incompetent general lead the army incompetent’. Similarly, a good leader would lead a strong army and citizens. The most important thing now is not to bury this army, but to find a way to kill the Lord of Dawn- Li Xiang.”
Some of the foreign races narrowed their eyes and murmured to themselves as they looked at the back of Li Xiang and the others.
Some of the races were familiar with humans, and they even knew a lot about them.
For now, destroying this army might not solve the problem. How to kill Li Xiang was the most important thing. As long as one was determined, one could break through the array regardless of the cost and kill all the Human warriors.
From the moment the Giant race had entered the battle array, they knew that even if they had to pay the price of being annihilated, it would still be effective on the Human warriors. Although the effect looked tragic and the cost-performance ratio was extremely low, it was fine as long as it was effective.
In a battle array, the Human army could still die and be injured. As long as one could die or injured, the array would be broken sooner or later no matter how strong it was.
