Chapter 288 Insect Swarm VS Orc Army: The Battle Enters a Stalemate



The orc warriors at the forefront fell one after another, like wheat being harvested.

Although the insect swarm has a numerical advantage.

However, the orc warriors are all between level 40 and 50, and they are not weak in any aspect, such as strength, resistance, speed, etc.

Braving the swarm's ranged attacks, they fought fearlessly and gradually advanced.

The orc archers, shamans, and orc catapults in the back row have already targeted the insect swarm and launched a ranged attack.

High in the sky, scorching hot shells would occasionally collide with huge rocks, producing deafening roars.

It resembled fireworks, creating a spectacular sight.

High-speed flying bone needles, acidic saliva, iron arrows, and magical orbs of light whistled through the air as they rushed toward their respective targets.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Swish swish!"

The sound of explosions mingled with screams.

In the blink of an eye, the casualties of the insectoid swarm and the orc army had exceeded ten thousand.

Although the two sides did not engage in close combat, the battle was already extremely fierce.

"Is this what a war on a million-strong scale is like?" An Ruoyun murmured to herself, a look of shock in her eyes.

Zhao Ganwu's heart raced, a hint of fervor on his face: "Exciting! This kind of war scene is what every man should experience!"

"Why not launch a counter-offensive?" Shi Lesheng asked Su Bai, standing beside Wang Zhenguo.

Su Bai glanced sideways and quickly replied:

"The swarm of insects has a numerical advantage over the orc army."

"But its level is more than twenty levels lower."

"Therefore, in this kind of battlefield situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, the safest course of action is to defend in place."

Actually, Su Bai was somewhat against his conscience when he said those words.

If Sloan had not led his werewolf forces to the scene, then, according to his usual tactics, he would have ordered the swarm to charge after the long-range strikes ended.

In the process of charging forward, it is essential to build up momentum in order to better defeat the enemy.

Holding their ground will only lower morale than the enemy's.

But now, the appearance of Shi Lesheng's army has made Su Bai change his decision.

After all, an army of 200,000 werewolves, all at level 40, is definitely a force to be reckoned with.

The 500,000-strong Light Legion has already charged forward and is engaged in fierce battle with the Undead army.

If the swarm of insects were to break out again, wouldn't Su Bai be left without an army he could absolutely trust?

As the old saying goes: One should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others.

Therefore, Su Bai kept a watchful eye on things and noticed that the werewolf soldiers did not charge but instead ordered the swarm of insects to defend in place.

Furthermore, the 280,000 exploding insects behind them remained motionless.

"The swarm should just stay put and defend! We'll kill those green-skinned orcs when they charge in!" Wang Zhenguo stared intently at the battlefield before him.

Without hesitation, Shi Lesheng said, "My werewolf soldiers have no ranged attack capabilities. Once the orc army charges in, I will order them to assist the swarm in combat."

Three minutes later.

Orc warriors wielding battle axes have charged forward and are engaged in battle with the first wave of leaping insects.

The Destroyer and Hydralisk remain stationary and continue to launch ranged attacks.

Nearly half a million cockroaches, moving on six legs and carrying heavy carapaces, charged forward to fight alongside springtails against the orc warriors.

The Queen of Blades' talent, Heart of the Zerg, grants a 200% boost to the combat power of the Zerg swarm within a radius of 1 meter around her.

The killing title "Bloody Hunter" increases the swarm's combat power and fighting spirit by 25%.

The "King of the Wilderness" medal increases the overall strength of the lord's troops by 50% when the lord is within the Desolate Wilderness area.

Furthermore, the Mythic quality has been enhanced.

With such multiple boosts, although the average level of the insect soldiers is only 20, their actual combat power has already exceeded that of level 35.

In addition, they also have a numerical advantage.

Therefore, they faced an attack from an orc army of over a million, with levels over forty.

The swarm not only withstood the attack but also maintained its formation without retreating an inch.

"Well done! These insect soldiers are incredibly powerful!"

Wang Zhenguo shifted his gaze to the battlefield between the insect swarm and the orc army, a hint of approval in his eyes.

"Luckily, it's a battle on home soil. Otherwise, I wouldn't have much confidence facing orc warriors who are only level 40 or so. After all, the level difference is significant," Su Bai said.

Wang Zhenguo glanced sideways, his brow furrowing: "Shi Lesheng, why isn't your werewolf unit moving? Are you afraid of casualties?"

"I, I'll order the soldiers to attack right away! I was just stunned by the fighting power of the swarm, which is why I lost my focus."

After speaking, Shi Lesheng turned around and gave the order.

Two hundred thousand werewolf troops charged forward and joined the battle.

Together with the swarm of insects, fight against the relentless attacks of the orc warriors.

Seeing this, Su Bai's heart finally calmed down a little.

The werewolf soldiers have already clashed with the orc warriors, and casualties have occurred.

The enemy is powerful, so having another friendly force is always a good thing.

opposite.

Jonas stared at the battlefield before him, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.

"The Light Legion is of a high level and has strong combat power. It was within my expectations that they were able to withstand my undead army."

"However, a million-strong orc army, all of them level 40 or so, were actually stopped by a level 20 insectoid swarm."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it."

The four old Japanese lords stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with deep horror.

They had assumed that their orc army would easily break through the insectoid swarm's defenses with overwhelming force.

Who would have thought that when the great battle broke out, the swarm was able to hold its ground firmly without retreating an inch?

It should be noted that the difference in rank between the two sides' troops was more than twenty levels.

With such a huge level advantage, shouldn't the orc army easily tear the insect swarm to shreds when they launch an attack?

"Baka!"

"That Su Bai guy is simply inhuman!"

"Having two million troops is one thing, but their combat power is also so formidable!"

Seeing that the orc warriors' attack was thwarted, Shun Koishikawa's face immediately fell, becoming taut as if coated with a layer of paste.

McKesson's expression was somewhat complicated, and he seemed a little frustrated.

"Although I am the second-ranked lord in the newly promoted lord rankings, the gap between me and Su Bai is like heaven and earth."

Jonas snorted coldly: "Being in the limelight for a while means nothing. Surviving and becoming a true powerhouse on the Land of Redemption is what's worth talking about."

"Colonel Joe, you're right! After today, Su Bai will be a dead man!" Maxon rallied, a glint of excitement in his eyes. "Then, of all the lords who arrive this year, I will be the strongest."
