Under normal circumstances, this actually benefited the side being ambushed.

Although they would pay a heavy price, an extremely high troop density could also give the ambushed side time to adjust.

However, if the ambusher's instantaneous destructive power was too great, everything would change.

After three consecutive rounds of ranged fire coverage, the unusually concentrated resistance forces suffered unprecedented losses.

More than sixty percent of the resistance fighters died on the spot, while the morale of the remaining soldiers plummeted to rock bottom.

Unlike Undead Troops, armies composed of humans were deeply affected by morale.

Once they suffered massive casualties in a short period, their morale threshold could easily be shattered.

When morale collapsed, no matter how brave the soldiers or how outstanding the commanders, it would be difficult to turn the tide and salvage defeat.

Clearly, a casualty rate that had soared to sixty percent within mere minutes had far exceeded the resistance's limit.

Panicked soldiers ignored their officers' commands and scattered in every direction they believed to be safe.

However, fleeing like this had little practical meaning when it came to preserving their lives.

As the ranged bombardment ended, the army of death led by Skeletal Giant Snake Sesha began advancing along the entire front, mercilessly slaughtering the already scattered resistance forces.

In order to escape the battlefield faster, many resistance soldiers threw away their Honkai Energy Enhancement weapons while fleeing.

Without the protection of those weapons, the resistance soldiers were hardly any different from unarmed civilians.

At least, that was the case when facing the undead soldiers' blades.

Even more despairingly, undead soldiers possessed endurance far beyond what humans could match.

Even Flame-Chaser Warriors paled in comparison before the tireless undead.

During their flight, resistance soldiers were constantly caught by undead soldiers and executed one after another.
