Chapter 120: Powerful opponents, flaws on both sides (Subscription required)
A sledgehammer came swinging and hit the black-armored warrior directly on the chest with a dull sound. The black-armored warrior's face changed slightly, and his body uncontrollably took several steps back.

Exhaling a long breath, he stepped forward and chopped down with his long sword, directly hitting the tree man warrior's body, breaking the rough skin, and bright red liquid flowed out of the long and narrow wound.

What a strong defense.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, the fighters on both sides launched a series of tentative attacks, and then found that the opponent was really tough.

After one round of attacks, both sides suffered almost no losses.

Putting the troops with strong defense at the front to deal with the possible extremely strong attack, makes it impossible for both sides to effectively kill the enemy.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Night Tribe did not try their best. The entire Giant Tree City controls millions of tree warriors, and the expeditionary force they brought this time consists of less than 200,000 elite soldiers.

Even if they are really good at fighting, it is unrealistic to conquer Giant Tree City with such a small number of people.

So this is just an exploratory war, and the purpose is very simple, to find out as much intelligence about the tree warriors as possible.

This was not the first time they encountered tree people. They had encountered tree people before when fighting against other players. They were a unique type of soldiers of the elves.

However, that battle ended too quickly and they did not collect much intelligence.

Moreover, these tree people in front of him were obviously somewhat different from the tree people of the elves.

The treeman warriors of the elves look more like roadside trees. To be honest, Su Xingyu couldn't tell the species of these blood-red treemen in front of him.

Under Chang Li's control, the army of the Night Tribe constantly clashed with the army of the Tree People, but did not penetrate deep into the formation, leaving enough room so that the warriors could be withdrawn quickly when the situation became bad.

The number of the tree people army is slightly larger, but in terms of strength, the army of the Night Tribe is superior.

After all, they are here for an expedition, so Su Xingyu naturally cannot send trash here. The warriors here are all elite troops of the Ye tribe.

It is no exaggeration to say that half of the Night Tribe’s current elite warriors are located here.

Moreover, there is also a gap in command between the two sides. It is already very good that Kalu can lead the army of tree people in an orderly manner.

After all, it is just a tree man. Even if it has reached the seventh level, we cannot demand too much from it.

Compared with its peers, it is already excellent.

However, facing the commander carefully trained by Su Xingyu, Kalu was a little inadequate and had to rely on his subordinates for support.

Suddenly, sideways.

Ye Zhan led tens of thousands of black-armored cavalrymen and rushed in. The tree-man warriors on the periphery held up a large shield to block in front, and raised their spears to stab the oncoming cavalrymen.

what--

"bloody battle!"

With a roar, Ye Zhan activated his heroic halo, adding a buff to the cavalry behind him. He also took this opportunity to draw on the strength of the legionnaires and directly launched a fierce slash.

Hundreds of meters of black sword energy slashed down.

The two sixth-level giant treeman warriors were terrified. They mobilized all their energy and jointly held up a blood-red energy shield, blocking the way like a city wall.

Swah——

The blood-red shield that could withstand seventh-level attacks did not last for a second.

The sword energy slashed down, splitting the shield along with the two sixth-level tree men behind it.

The tight battle line was directly cut open, and the night battle led by cavalry rushed in to expand the gap.

"die!"

The black-armored warrior released his fighting spirit, which turned into a black blade and chopped the treeman warrior who was rushing towards him to the ground.

"Die to me."

A sixth-rank warrior roared angrily, with dark fighting spirit covering his entire body. He ignored the incoming sledgehammer and chopped down the giant treeman warrior in front of him with a knife.

bang——

After being hit by the sledgehammer, he flew into the air and flew backwards.

However, the long knife also hit the giant tree man warrior, leaving a long wound.

The treeman warrior sneered and skillfully used his life energy to heal his wounds, then he realized something was wrong.

It worked every time, but the life energy with strong recovery ability suddenly lost its effect.

I saw dark energy attached to the long wound. All the incoming life energy was swallowed up by this dark energy, which then strengthened itself and then spread around the wound.

"What is this thing!" Seeing the dark energy expanding beyond the wound, the giant tree man warrior suddenly panicked and subconsciously mobilized the energy in his body to block the dark energy.

As their practice deepened and the gods gradually became stronger, the dark fighting spirit mastered by the Night Tribe warriors gradually showed various different characteristics.

Such as erosion, devourment, decay.
Depending on the practitioner's level of mastery and understanding of darkness, the characteristics they display will also be different.

The characteristics possessed by the sixth-level centurion just now were devouring and erosion.

That knife looked simple, but it was actually his full-strength attack.

"You still want to recover! You suffered a loss before, and you still want to do this this time. Do you really think I'm a fool?"

The sixth-level warrior who was blown away rushed up again and slashed at the treeman warrior with another knife. This time, the giant treeman warrior did not dare to resist.

While suppressing the dark energy in his body, he raised his shield to intercept.

The weapons and armor of the tree people are all made of special wood.

But don't underestimate these wooden weapons and armor. In terms of strength alone, they are not inferior to normal weapons and equipment. The most important thing is that they are extremely compatible with the treeman warriors and are exclusive equipment.

"Dead! Die! Die!"

The sixth-level dark warrior rushed up quickly and engaged in a fierce battle with the giant tree man.

The long sword was swung wildly, and the sword light attacked like a storm.

The shield, which has been with the tree warrior for many years and is comparable to epic equipment, has many cuts on its surface after being slashed by the long sword.

The dark energy in the giant tree man's body was constantly drawn, making it unable to concentrate on fighting. Under the dark warrior's swift attack, the tree man finally revealed a flaw. The dark warrior seized this opportunity, his eyes shining with brilliance.

"Die!"

The fighting spirit in his body flowed into the long sword, and the inscriptions on the blade gradually lit up, flashing a dark golden glow. The human warrior roared: "Soul Devourer!!!"

Holding the knife with both hands, he slashed forward with all his might.

The giant tree man warrior's face changed, and just as he was about to use his energy to resist, the dark energy in his body suddenly rioted and interfered with it for a moment. It was at this moment that the giant tree man lost his chance.

Bang—the shield broke in two. Under the ferocious face of the human warrior, the long sword slashed into the body of the tree man, and the hard body of the tree man was cut open. Amid the painful roar of the tree man, the human warrior roared and pressed the long sword down.

"You are just an ant, and you want to stop me? Die!"

With a roar, the long sword split the giant tree man warrior in half.

After killing the tree warrior, you can see the inscription on the long sword, and the color is brighter.

Compared with the battlefield on this side, the battle on the other side is even more intense.

bang——

boom--

Every collision makes a loud noise, as deafening as thunder.

"Hahaha, fight!" Ye Zhan waved his long sword and chopped the tree man in front of him away with one blow. Just as he was about to chase after him, a red light swept in front of him and directly chopped him out more than ten meters.

As soon as his body landed on the ground and had not yet stood firmly, Ye Zhan laughed wildly and rushed up again.

After a while, the two seventh-level warriors collided again, erupting with astonishing power.

There is really a world of difference between the sixth level and the seventh level.

Especially since they are all powerful warriors among the seventh level, ordinary sixth level warriors may not be able to withstand their three attacks.

"General, General Ye Zhan has rushed in, and is going deeper and deeper. This is somewhat different from the plan we made earlier. Should we remind them to retreat?" At the center of the Ye tribe's army, the adjutant beside Chang Li saw the situation of his own cavalry corps and immediately asked for advice.

"No need, let them be, and I can't control them. Besides, plans cannot keep up with changes. Originally, I just wanted to test the strength of this army of tree people and prepare for the future battles. I just wanted to repel them. But now it seems that I can eat some of them." Chang Li controlled his own legion and began to put pressure on the tree man army from the front, preparing to cut off a part of them.

The treeman warriors were indeed not weak, but this army of treemen was not as strong as he had expected. Or perhaps it was that the Night Tribe army was growing too fast, so fast that he had not yet fully adapted.

It is unrealistic to want to defeat this entire army of tree people. After all, there are too many tough ones among them, and the Night Tribe does not have an absolute advantage in military strength.

But Chang Li was still confident that he could earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.

As the Night Tribe launched a full-scale attack, the situation on the battlefield changed drastically, and the army of tree people felt a strong sense of oppression.

Trapped in the enemy's night battle, after noticing the change in the battle situation, he no longer entangled with the strong man in front of him, but took over the cavalry corps again, launched a fierce attack, and tried to break through the front line of the tree man army.

The battlefield suddenly became a mess.

The two sides fought for a long time, from noon to dusk.

The tree people are a special race, and with the replenishment of blood on the battlefield, they can fully withstand such high-intensity combat.

Although the warriors of the Night Tribe do not have this kind of recovery method, they are rich and each of them has several recovery potions.

"it's time."

Chang Li had a grim expression on his face. As night fell, the strength of the Night Tribe's army increased again. On the other hand, the Treeman army, after resisting several rounds of attacks, had completely fallen into a disadvantage.

If it were any other race, they would have been defeated by now.

But these tree people are really special. Even if they are scattered, they will not feel afraid. Instead, they will spontaneously organize themselves and counterattack the enemy.

But even so, it cannot change the impending failure.

The black-armored warriors launched a full-scale attack, which the treeman warriors could not resist at all, and the army began to collapse across the board.

"Fight for my Lord!"

"Fight for my Lord!"

"Fight for my Lord!"

Shouting slogans, the black-armored warriors moved forward firmly, swinging the long swords in their hands and killing all the enemies in front of them.

The treeman warriors are indeed tenacious, but if one strike doesn't kill them, then use two or three strikes.

"hateful."

Watching the changing situation on the battlefield, Kalu cursed angrily.

As night fell, the enemy's fighting power became stronger. Looking at the situation on our side, we could still fight, but it was impossible to win.

So Kalu was very decisive and directly issued the order to retreat.

"Spear throwers provide cover."

Dense blood-red short spears were shot out indiscriminately and hit the junction between the two sides.

"Fuck, you lunatics, attack together and intercept the short spears in the sky!"

Seeing the incoming shots, the warriors of the Night Tribe had to stop chasing and either brandish their swords or raise their shields to block the incoming attacks from the short spears.

The treeman warriors who were fighting simply turned around and ran, not caring about the so-called short spear attacks.

As long as they are not shot into hedgehogs, the impact of these blows on them is quite limited.

But after a while, the army of tree people ran away.

"No need to chase him. You can't kill him even if you catch up with him."

Chang Li stopped everyone's intention to chase after them and turned his attention to the separated treeman army. More than 100,000 human troops surrounded the 30,000 treeman warriors.

"Submit, or perish."

Looking at the treeman warrior in front of him, Chang Li issued a final ultimatum.

The treeman warriors were indeed very capable fighters, with strong vitality, high defense, and decent strength, but all these were useless. After being surrounded by the elite army of the Night Tribe, their fate was already sealed.

Surrender, or die.

He couldn't annihilate an army of the same number of treemen, but Chang Li could easily annihilate 30,000 treeman warriors.

"For the spirit of the giant tree!"

The leading sixth-level tree man expressed his thoughts through actions.

Chang Li's face turned cold: "Kill them."

"die!"

The most elite black-armored warrior completely abandoned his shield, held the sword with both hands, and then slashed down.

The tree warrior was split into two.

One by one, the treeman warriors fell.

This was more of a massacre than a battle.

Under normal circumstances, the warriors of the Night Tribe do not have the ability to kill these tree man warriors.

But when they abandon defense and focus all their efforts on offense, they will have this ability.

The reason why they didn't do this before was mainly because they didn't want to increase their casualties. Without the shield, the tree people on the opposite side were also capable of killing them. But the situation is different now. They have the advantage in numbers, and killing quickly is the best way to reduce casualties.

When the number of treeman warriors was reduced to over 25,000, the remaining treeman warriors, seeing the corpses of their companions all around them, realized what fear was.

"Surrender, we surrender!"

As the first treeman warrior laid down his weapon, more and more treeman warriors chose to surrender.

"These guys are really tough."

Even though he won the war, Chang Li did not deny the strength of these treeman warriors.

The opponent lost because of the command.

Perhaps it was because there had never been a large-scale conflict with other forces, resulting in the other side's commander's command ability being not very good.

But even so, the Night Tribe only defeated them, leaving behind tens of thousands of warriors, but did not completely annihilate them.

"Take your time. We have plenty of time. When the reserve troops arrive, we will practice with them properly."

Ye Zhan smiled and said, "It's not weak in strength, not very lethal, and full of oppression, which is just right for training. The new recruits in the tribe are progressing too fast in their extraordinary rank. Some of them haven't even fought a single battle, but they have already reached the second rank just by training in the barracks for a while."
