The horrific scene chilled the hearts of the soldiers from all the major empires who followed the Holy Church.

Undoubtedly, they were used as cannon fodder and tools to Resist the endless invasion of the goblin army, while the soldiers of the Church and the empires such as Barcelona and Juventus were able to huddle in the middle to preserve their strength.

The fighting grew increasingly intense.

The number of goblins is increasing; they can't be killed off completely.

This war instilled in people an unprecedented sense of despair.

It seemed as if the fighting would never stop until everyone was dead.

In the sky, more and more powerful goblins appeared, their bodies shimmering with emerald flames.

"Ah..." Amidst screams, another Human Clan powerhouse was killed, torn to pieces, and his flesh was devoured by the goblin powerhouse.

This scene filled all the human soldiers with rage and fury.

"Oh no! The Northwest Camp has been breached by goblins..."

Amidst the panicked screams, the magic circle's protective shield in the northwest Sunderland Empire's garrison camp shattered like glass, and hordes of goblins rushed in like a tidal wave of green water.

The blue and white Sunderland soldiers, like small boats struggling in a raging storm, were swallowed up in the blink of an eye.

"This battle is unwinnable, retreat! Retreat!"

Sunderland Commander Adam Johnson's heart was bleeding.

The more than 10,000 troops that were swallowed up by the goblin tide were the most elite army of the Sunderland Empire, forged with the utmost effort of the entire empire, and now they were wiped out in vain.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately! Stop Resist!"

Adam Johnson roared and ordered the remaining few thousand Sunderland Empire soldiers to abandon Resist and retreat towards the Juventus Empire camp...

In the blink of an eye, the goblin horde had completely engulfed the former Sunderland Empire's camps.

The shouts of battle were deafening!

"How dare you! Who gave you permission to retreat?" An angry roar rang out from the Juventus camp.

A burly man clad in black and white armor rose from the Juventus camp, roaring angrily. Without a word, he drew his long sword and swept it backhand, instantly turning the dozen or so Sunderland Empire soldiers running at the front into dust.

"You bastard, do you have no humanity left? Instead of fighting the Resist, you actually slaughtered your allies?"

Adam Johnson trembled with rage. He and his sword transformed into a streak of light, charging towards the burly man.

Clang clang clang!!!

A series of dazzling Mars erupted in the air.

"How dare you! You lowly officer of a mere eighth-level empire, you dare to attack Iaquinta?" the Juventus strongman roared angrily.

"You scum, you killed my Sunderland soldiers, so I'll kill you!" Adam Johnson's eyes were bloodshot.

"Hmph, a bunch of deserters, daring to abandon their posts in the face of battle! They should be completely wiped out as a warning to others!" Iaquinta sneered, even deliberately issuing a deliberate order to his troops, " Juventus army, listen to my command! Activate the magic array to isolate the camp and slaughter these Sunderland cowards who deserted their posts!"

"You..." Adam Johnson completely lost his temper.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining thousands of the Sunderland Empire soldiers all perished under the swords of the Juventus soldiers—their Human Clan brethren.

" Juventus... what you've done is absolutely outrageous!"

Such atrocities aroused the indignation of other empires.

Extreme Dao figures such as Fellaini from the Everton Empire, Delauno from the Espanyol Empire, Milošević from the Osasuna Empire rose into the air, stood on Adam Johnson's side, and glared angrily at Iaquinta.

"Hmph, what's wrong with me killing some cowards who deserted in the face of battle?" Iaquinta sneered.

"You have the nerve to say that?!" Johnson was practically bursting with rage. "My Sandra Empire's soldiers have held off the goblins on the outskirts for a full day and night, killing over 200,000. More than 30,000 of our 40,000 troops have already fallen in heroic battle. And what have you bastards been doing all this time? You've been cowering in the central camp like tortoises, contributing nothing to this battle, and you still have the nerve to criticize us? Bah! The Blue-Black- Black and Red-Black Empires should have wiped you out back then!"

"That's right, we're all here to support the Southern Region's Human Clan, so why can't you fight alongside us?"

"We need a reasonable explanation?"

"Hmph, you want to use us as cannon fodder? We must have been blind to ally ourselves with a bunch of scum!"

"I'm done! Give me the order to withdraw the troops! Withdraw!"

"Exactly, if they only care about themselves and don't Resist, then let's send four people."

More and more powerful figures from other empires were enraged, freezing in the void and confronting Iaquinta.

At this stage of the battle, more than six or seven imperial expeditionary forces have been completely wiped out. The Holy Church, Barcelona, and Juventus, the three main forces that should have been the backbone against the goblin army, not only failed to provide any assistance to other empires, but also used them as cannon fodder and made unwarranted accusations, which was extremely excessive.

"You... how dare you! Are you planning a rebellion?" Iaquinta was also somewhat frightened by the scene before him.

At that moment, powerful auras rose simultaneously from the camps of Juventus, Barcelona, and the Holy Church, as the experts from these three forces ascended into the sky.

"What happened?" Church Rosario's voice was full of authority and accusation.

Iaquinta took the lead, stirring things up by saying that Johnson and others wanted to rebel.

Fellaini and others argued their case forcefully, while some other powerful figures from the empire, with their more straightforward personalities, openly expressed their dissatisfaction with the Church.

"I understand." Rosario nodded.

The high-ranking cardinal of the Church swept his sharp gaze across the faces of the crowd, his body radiating an overwhelming aura. The terrifying pressure made everyone feel the presence of a god-level powerhouse, and they couldn't help but feel fear. Due to the difference in their strength and status, for a moment, no one dared to meet his gaze.

Rosario nodded in satisfaction and said slowly, "The reason we haven't stepped forward is not because we're afraid of battle, nor is it to exploit or wear you down. It's because this wave of goblins is merely a probing attack by the Goblin Empire. Soon, a much stronger goblin force will arrive to attack. The Church and the two empires must conserve their strength to face the real enemy."
