A Breakthrough on the Eve of Battle, a True Genius!

Take Her Eyes With You, she said, "Shen Xing, I'm ready. Are you online?"

Shen Xing replied, "I'm online. Bring your people over."

"Good."

Next, Shen Xing stayed in his territory, waiting for Xia Wanyin to come and join him.

A dozen minutes later, a cluster of white dots rapidly approached on the minimap.

When Xia Wanyin arrived at the territory, Shen Xing stared blankly at the troop formation behind her.

Leading the way were a group of Light Spirit swordsmen wielding longswords and burly Light Spirit shield guards, numbering no fewer than thirty.

Each Light Spirit is at least level 5, radiating intense light power, like a moving light bulb.

What surprised him even more was the number of Light Spirit archers surrounding Xia Wanyin; there were no fewer than twenty of them, and more than half of them Elite Rank.

In total, she brought more than fifty different types of troops, with Elite Rank units making up a third of them.

The sheer strength of this team is self-evident.

"These... are your main force?" Shen Xing asked murmured.

"Yes, I spent a lot of resources to cultivate this!" Xia Wanyin said with a hint of pride.

Shen Xing glanced at her. "You brought so many troops with you, what about the territory?"

"I left a small force in the territory, so the defense shouldn't be a problem." Xia Wanyin still had a gentle smile on her face.

A little bit?

It's probably just a tiny fraction of a billion.

Shen Xing realized that this woman probably had a powerful background in real life, or was even very wealthy.

After all, the resources spent on throwing out scrolls worth hundreds of thousands each and cultivating so many Light Spirit Elite are simply unimaginable.

Could it be... that a rich woman is actually next to me?

"Rich woman... no, Wanyin, let's prepare to move in."

Shen Xing said no more. Although the strength of the troops she brought was somewhat beyond expectations, this made them more confident of victory.

"Okay." Xia Wanyin nodded, looking eager to try.

Next, Shen Xing began selecting the types of soldiers for this operation.

Ultimately, he decided to bring all eleven Dretch with him to form a bombing squad.

In addition, ten skeleton archers provided ranged support, and twenty orcs served as the vanguard.

This includes two powerful generals: Hellscream and Gorehowl.

Within the territory, there are two Elite Three Stars warriors, Da Hou and Black Arrow, along with a dozen orcs and skeleton archers, more than enough for defense.

Next, Shen Xing spent another 20 Soul Stone and Black Crystal to upgrade the lantern to level 4.

[Lantern]

[Level: 4]

[Effect: Dispels fog within a 50-meter radius and provides illumination]

[Continuous burning time: 4 hours]

[Upgrade Requirements: Level 5 Bonfire, 40 Soul Stone, 40 Black Crystal]

The illumination range of the level 4 lantern has increased dramatically to a diameter of 100 meters, and the exploration time has also been extended to 4 hours.

This will give us more room to maneuver during combat.

At this moment, Shen Xing was followed by forty-three combat units, each one of them exuding a fierce aura and high fighting spirit!

Xia Wanyin was surrounded by nearly fifty Light Spirit, whose natural light aura illuminated an area of more than ten meters in radius.

"Set off!"

Shen Xing raised his arm and shouted, "Crush the Blackwater River and conquer the Naga women!"

"Waaaaagh!!"

The group of nearly ninety people marched into the mist and headed straight for the Blackwater River.

Chapter 53: Breakthrough Before Battle, A True Genius!

Half an hour later, the team of nearly ninety people arrived at the Blackwater River, the place where Shen Xing had previously been fighting monsters.

At this moment, the black shallows were covered with footprints and drag marks, but the Naga corpses on them were nowhere to be seen.

"Those Naga seem to have gone back into the water yesterday," Xia Wanyin said softly after sensing the surroundings carefully.

Shen Xing nodded. "Put the bait up there again and see if we can lure them up."

"If they don't take the bait, let's find another place to grind monsters."

After saying this, he had an orc step forward and place the bait wrapped in oilcloth on the shallows.

And less than a minute had passed since the bait was placed.

"Splash... splash..."

A series of splashing sounds rang out, as if a large number of creatures were coming ashore.

Immediately afterwards, a group of imposing and fierce-looking Dark Naga stepped into the range of the firelight.

The one leading them was none other than that pale and fierce-looking Dark Naga priest!

"You lowly humans, how dare you set foot in the Blackwater River area!"

A cold voice emanated from beneath the Naga priestess's mask. "Today, you will all be buried at the bottom of the river, turning into silt that nourishes the riverbed!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly raised her staff, and a vast amount of dark power surged forth.

A rapidly spinning black water sphere appeared, its volume expanding rapidly.

And because it was near the water's edge, this water sphere seemed even more terrifying than yesterday.

"Who dares to harm my lord!"

A furious shout came from the sky, and all the Naga instinctively looked up.

Immediately afterwards, they saw a green figure descend from the sky, raising a flaming battle axe high in both hands, and slashing down with destructive force.

Sensing the terror of this attack, all the Naga felt a chill run down their spines and instinctively scattered.

Even the Naga priest had to interrupt her spellcasting, flicking her fishtail and dashing forward more than ten meters.

"Boom!!!"

The moment she left her spot, it was as if a comet had fallen onto the riverbank.

The violent shockwave instantly overturned more than a dozen Dark Naga, raising dust tens of meters high.

As the smoke cleared, a huge crater appeared on the riverbank. At the bottom of the crater, a green figure held a double-edged battle axe, his body slightly bent, exuding a fierce aura.

The Naga priestess's gaze narrowed slightly; she sensed the enemy's power, their aura almost closing in on her.

"I'll deal with him, you go and wipe out those humans!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the skin under the Naga priest's armpits began to wriggle, and with a "poof," a second pair of fair arms emerged.

Dark power surged, and a harpoon about 1.5 meters long quickly materialized in her hand.

At this moment, she gripped two weapons with her four arms, and with a flick of her massive fish tail, she charged toward Hellscream at incredible speed.

Hellscream remained unfazed, raising his battle axe to meet the attack head-on.

"Clang!"

The weapons clashed with a dull thud, and the two top -Tier One first-level experts instantly clashed.

The other Dark Naga swarmed towards Shen Xing and Xia Wanyin.

A legion of hundreds of Naga was mobilized, and an overwhelming sense of oppression continued to assail them.

"Go! Push them down!"

Shen Xing was not afraid at all, after all, he was no longer the person he was yesterday.

He is now a powerful lord commanding an army of dozens of men!

At a command, a dozen orcs and Xia Wanyin's Light Spirit swordsmen charged out simultaneously to meet the oncoming Naga Legion.

"Pfft! Pfft pfft!"

Upon contact, a fierce hand-to-hand combat broke out between the two sides.

A dozen or so Dark Naga were cut down on the spot, and then hacked to death by other Light Spirit swordsmen and orcs.

Several orcs on Shen Xing's side were also sent flying by spears, some even having their chests pierced through, a truly pitiful sight.

At that moment, the skeleton archers and Light Spirit archers behind them unleashed a volley of fire!

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Dark Arrow and Light Arrow rained down in a dense barrage, piercing through swarms of Dark Naga.

Some were even hit in vital areas, their clothes piercing through them instantly.

The orcs, now in berserk mode, immediately pressed forward, continuously advancing the front line.

The two sides quickly clashed, and the entire shallows were engulfed in fierce fighting.

Shen Xing pushed his wheelchair behind the boulder, with two Light Spirit shield guards protecting him closely.

This was the first time he had experienced such a large-scale battle, and he found it quite exciting.

He immediately took out sunflower seeds and peanuts—no, he took out Repeating Crossbow —and aimed it at the Naga in the crowd who could attack from a distance, continuously firing stray arrows to harass them.

There is still a significant difference in the number of troops on both sides, but Shen Xing and Xia Wanyin have higher quality troops.

The number of Elite Rank units alone exceeds 30 on both sides!

Furthermore, thanks to the Hellscream [Spirit of the Horde] talent, all orcs will gain 1 level during combat.

Although some damage has occurred, no orcs have been killed so far.

Meanwhile, one of the Elite Naga, seeing the enemy's ferocity and the battle line being constantly pushed forward, grew anxious.

Then he raised his staff and uttered ancient chants.

"?????????,??????????!"

The next second, a group of Naga wielding staffs all began to wave their staffs, and dark magic surged forth.

"Splash... splash..."

The Blackwater River surged and intensified, gradually transforming into a giant wave tens of meters high!

The black, colossal waves, with overwhelming force, rushed to the shore, threatening to engulf the entire orc army.
