GLOBAL LORDS: HUNDREDFOLD INCREMENTS STARTING WITH THE UNDEAD

Chapter 1128: Chapter 734, Counterattack

The equipment dropped by the Mythical Troops was not orange after all.

This somewhat dismayed Fang Hao.

As the strength of the monsters increased, the rewards they dropped should have increased as well.

It was still purple; was this not a form of mockery?

Beneath the city walls, Skeleton Warriors carpet-searched for equipment, for these Flame Giants had an attack move that involved throwing ‘flaming warhammers.’

And the warhammers did not possess that characteristic of flying back on their own like Thor’s in Marvel.

Once thrown, they were gone.

One had to search for them far and wide.

Quite the hassle.

Standing atop the city wall, Fang Hao glanced in the direction of the incoming enemy.

He turned and said, “Anjia, go and inform the others, arrange for heroes staying behind on the walls to consider counterattacking the enemy based on the situation.”

Anjia, who had been idly tapping her fingers with her legs crossed, sprang to her feet.

“Are we going on the offensive? Alright…”

She dashed off, running along the city walls.

Fang Hao did not plan to continue with the defense.

According to the introduction for the second phase of the mission.

Transmigrators could counterattack, invade the enemy’s city, and uncover their secrets.

Secrets or whatever did not matter to him, and he had no interest in them.

But the change in rules meant that defense was no longer the best approach; attacking could yield greater gains.

The first round was, so to speak, a probe into the type and level of the enemy.

Even Mythical Level troops did not exhibit overly formidable combat power.

Troops were still troops.

Reaching the Mythical Level, they still could not escape the impact of quantity on the battle situation.

“Lord, you wish to counterattack?” Demitrija inquired.

“Yes, the enemy’s levels are not high; we can attempt a counterattack.”

“I can lead the troops to take the city for you,” Demitrija continued.

Fang Hao shook his head, “No need, let’s not invite trouble here. I will use ‘God’s Presence’ to command the battle; you and Anjia must just protect me.”

Demitrija did not say much more, content with nodding in agreement.

Now that God’s Presence had reached Level 4, it could control five Demon Dolls at the same time.

The distance over which God’s Presence could exert control had also greatly increased.

According to the range Spencer had given him, there was no problem controlling the dolls in an offensive.

Having thought it through.

He immediately released a priest doll and checked the sufficient number of Bound Spirit Guardians.

He then headed straight for the Troop Hiding Cave.

Click—!

The concealed stone door of the Troop Hiding Cave slowly opened, and a dense mass of Undead swiftly emerged from underground at the command.

The White Bone Army gradually filled up the empty ground.

…

Woo!!

Only half of the troops had come out.

The enemy’s horn sounded once again.

More Flame Giants, each topped with flames, reappeared on the horizon.

In addition to their increase in numbers, the sky also lit up with birds whose wings blazed as brilliantly as flames, leaving behind crimson trails in the dim night sky.

“Speed up the troop emergence,” Fang Hao said gravely.

One Troop Hiding Cave had been filled with nearly a million troops.

These forces were mainly for defense against enemy attacks, so the troop types had been well arranged in advance.

The troops in the front were still emerging.

While those in the rear continued to pour out incessantly.

Fang Hao, controlling the ‘priest doll,’ sat astride a horse following the front line of the army, advancing and issuing orders to organize the defense.

“Beat the drums! Raise the shield,” Fang Hao bellowed.

Boom, boom, boom!

Undead soldiers atop White Bone Rhinos began to beat the war drums.

Circles of light covered all troop types.

The Skeleton Warriors in the front raised their shields, and forces distributed around gradually congregated into neat formations.

With each step closer.

The Flamebirds in the air sped ahead.

They pulled ahead of the Flame Giants, taking the lead at the forefront.

As both forces neared each other, the appearance of the Flamebirds became clearer.

Their tails blazed brilliantly, yet lacked the expected splendor.

The skin was patchy and rotted, covered with uneven feathers, and hollow eye sockets hung with shriveled eyeballs.

The sight was horrifying and bizarre, causing discomfort to any onlooker.

[Flamebird (Mythical Level Troops)].

Another Mythical Level Troop.

And their name, even simpler, explained the elemental traits and category clearly.

The Flamebirds, heads drooping, charged towards the column.

“Bone Dragons to meet the enemy.”

“Yes!”

The Bound Spirit Guardians quickly left, running towards the back.

Soon, Bone Dragons soared into the sky, rushing headlong towards the Flamebirds.

The Bone Dragons were much larger than the Flamebirds.

But the standard for measuring combat power was not solely based on size.

Bone Dragons were only Level 10, while the Flamebirds were Mythical Level Troops.

Clearly, the Flamebirds had a slightly higher attribute level.

Fortunately, there were over 200 Bone Dragons, while the initial count of Flamebirds was close to twenty.

The number was sufficient to compensate for the disadvantage in attributes.

Roar!!

The Bone Dragons directly spat out beams of black light toward the Flamebirds.

The Flamebirds, however, attacked by gathering power in their wings and beating them.

In an instant, a wave of crimson heat like an explosion spread out.

Nearly illuminating the entire night sky.

Bone Dragons that couldn’t dodge in time were enveloped in the hot wave.

The white steel armor on their bodies began to distort and show signs of liquefaction.

The Bone Dragons immediately dodged, scrambling out of the flames in disarray.

But the Flamebird seemed fixated on that particular Bone Dragon.

Dragging its slender tail flame, it relentlessly pursued the Bone Dragon, unleashing wave after wave of intense, scorching flames.

And behind it was more Bone Dragons, still attacking with Dragon Breath while following the Flamebird.

In the skies at that time.

A chase between Flamebirds and Bone Dragons unfolded.

Firewaves and Dragon Breath continuously lit up the sky.

Boom, boom!

As the White Bone Army advanced, the Flame Giant troops also started running towards them at a rapid pace.

Their heavy footsteps made the ground tremor with each step they took.

Fang Hao watched the direction from which the Flame Giants approached.

He continued to give orders, “Send fewer Skeleton Giant Bats to circle over those guys, no need to attack.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Halt all troops, prepare for lightning strikes.”

Crash!

The advancing Skeleton army came to a stop, their right hands outstretched conjuring up spears of lightning flashing with thunderbolts.

At this moment, the Skeleton Giant Bats in the sky steered clear of the combat zone between the Bone Dragons and the Flamebirds.

Heading straight for the airspace above the Flame Giants.

As soon as they entered the area,

the dull-eyed Flame Giants looked up in unison, their gazes fixed on the sparse Skeleton Giant Bats overhead.

The next second,

whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Flaming hammers were hurled into the air, aimed at the flapping giant bats.

In the blink of an eye, all the Flame Giants had been disarmed, left with nothing in their hands.

Nothing but their bare fists as they resumed their forward charge.

“Lightning strike, now!”

The Bound Spirit Guardians relayed the command.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Dense thunderbolts formed a bright white canopy, slicing through the sky.

Crashing into the ranks of the Flame Giants with a piercing crackle.

Under the weight of numbers, the hurled thunder spears blanketed the enemy’s entire area.

Electricity spread across the ground, the damage taking its toll on the bodies of the Flame Giants.

“Attack, kill them!”

After a round of strikes, Fang Hao continued with his orders.

Whoosh!

Skeleton Warriors lowered their shields,

drawing their weapons from their waists and charging forward like mad.

Against the densely packed swarm of the Undead,

the Mythical Troops, the Flame Giants, didn’t display exceptional combat power.

Lacking hammers for weapons, their attacks were reduced to throwing punches and stomps.

Each attack came with an effect of searing flames,

turning the White Bone within range to ashes.

However, the ferocity of the Flame Giants did not alter the course of battle.

After a struggle, they were overwhelmed by the White Bone Army, melting into muddy puddles that mingled with the land.

After the Flame Giants vanished,

the air chase also drew to a close.

The last Flamebird was enveloped by beams of light from all sides, turning to ash in the air, leaving not even bone fragments behind.

The Bone Dragons, too, suffered some losses.

Four dead, with more than a dozen others sustaining fire damage.

Their armor deformed, molten metal seeping into their ribcages.

Fang Hao was somewhat surprised by the combat power of the Flamebirds; even against so many Bone Dragons, they still managed to kill four.

Truly fierce.

“Advance…”

Fang Hao gave the order again, the army stepping over the charred battlefield and pressing on.

…

The enemy’s Fortress wasn’t far from the city.

Only due to some special reason was the enemy’s city wrapped in a hazy energy.

Only upon reaching a certain distance could one see the city’s real form.

This was a Giant’s city.

The walls, mottled and covered in fungus, seemed to stretch into the sky.

The guards on the walls burned with flame, bearing the traits of the Flame Giants.

Standing high above, they appeared like gods overseeing the mortal world.

But just the sight of this city cloaked one’s heart in an intangible pressure.

Humans are minuscule, fragile.

Beneath the walls, one could vaguely make out metal contraptions concealed in the mud.

“Sir, preparations are complete,” reported a Bound Spirit Guardian, hurrying over from behind.

Fang Hao nodded and looked again at the towering city walls, commanding coldly, “Advance, prepare for a lightning strike!”

“Advance, prepare for a lightning strike!”

“Advance, prepare for a lightning strike!”

Crash!

The Skeleton Sea launched a charge, rolling forth toward the city ahead.

Entering firing range,

the lightning strikes were readied in hand, cast toward the sky.

Normally, the lightning strikes could surpass the height of ordinary city walls.

But this time, the hurled thunder spears only cracked against the wall, failing even to reach the top.

They cleaned the wall, leaving behind black stone bricks as moss and mud fell away.

Seeing the lightning strikes ineffective, he ordered a direct charge.

Crash!

The White Bone Army surged into action, running toward the city walls below.

Whoosh!

Boom boom boom!

Defensive Flame Giants atop the walls began their retaliation, throwing down huge fireballs like meteors.

As they crashed into the Skeleton Sea, flames burst forth in all directions.

Yet, the skeletons charged fearlessly onward.

With their overwhelming numbers, they reached the base of the walls, scaling the uneven textures upwards.

Soon, the entire wall was coated in white bone,

spreading to other sides of the wall,

continuing the climb.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

One after another, Flamebirds flew out from inside the city, trailing brilliant tails through the air, swooping at the climbing Undead.

Each wave of fiery blast wiped out large swaths of skeletons.

“Send out the Bone Dragons to clear those Flamebirds.”

Observing the scene from afar, Fang Hao issued another order.

Whoosh whoosh!

Hundreds of Bone Dragons took off again, charging directly at the Flamebirds.

Once more, an aerial chase unfolded.

Once the Flamebirds were lured away, the Undead resumed their gecko-like ascent.

Watching from the battlefield as the Undead army climbed and trails of flame fell from the sky,

Fang Hao continued, “Send the Skeleton Giant Bats with explosive tubes to fly over the city for the drop.”

“Yes, sir.”

The height of these walls was a barrier to the assault.

Rifles and magic missiles couldn’t reach this high.

Even their attacks only knocked down climbing Skeleton Warriors.

Thus, the ranged units nearby could only stand by,

like terracotta warriors holding rifles and wielding magic wands, standing still.

But then, hidden within thick clouds, the Skeleton Giant Bats,

carrying explosive tubes, gradually approached the airspace over the city.
