While the team was adjusting, the mage Zuo Ming had already shifted Yun Xinghe's overall vision to Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao saw that in the infinite distance behind him, the gnoll army had already set up its legion formation. Two vanguard legions of 400,000 troops each were positioned on the left and right, while two legions of 600,000 troops each formed the left flank. Jiang Hao's two legions of 600,000 troops each formed the right flank, protecting the central legion of 1 million gnolls in the middle.
A total of 4.2 million gnolls, riding war wolves and riding various war chariots, along with a 100,000 human suicide squad, are advancing at full speed towards the north of the border, braving the wind and snow.
What puzzled Jiang Hao was that the human suicide squads and the gnoll army, regardless of their strength, were completely unaffected by the cold temperature here, which was truly puzzling.
They were still quite far away, so Jiang Hao only glanced at them briefly before turning his attention to the northern part of the realm.
Jiang Hao saw a large grove of trees not far ahead of them. However, the trees here were strange; they were all lying down!
Yes, just like a person, the white trunk and white branches and leaves all lean towards the north, just like the sun of this world on the northern land!
This forest stretches for an unknown number of kilometers from west to east; even with Jiang Hao's Heavenly Eye, he couldn't see its end. The forest is at least two hundred li wide. In its central area, a one-kilometer-wide blank strip winds from the west to the east, its shape suggesting it's a large river, though frozen and covered in snow.
After Jiang Hao clearly saw these details, he looked at the woods again and realized that their shape was quite similar to the great river. However, the woods were denser north of the river and relatively sparse south of it.
Jiang Hao then realized that the forest ahead grew along the river. It was because of the great river in front of them that there was a forest that was 100 kilometers wide on each side.
The great river lay directly in front of Jiang Hao and his companions, forming a large lake approximately 50 kilometers in diameter. The trees stretched 25 kilometers to the north and south, their entire forest perfectly enveloping the river and lake, as if artificially modified. It was a truly magnificent sight.
What puzzled Jiang Hao was that not far after crossing the northernmost part of the forest, he could only see a vast, white expanse. His vision couldn't penetrate that white space, leading Jiang Hao to believe that this must be the edge of this realm.
Jiang Hao looked at the forest again. He saw that all the magical beasts hidden among the trees, branches, and leaves were clearly visible to Yun Xinghe's Heavenly Eye.
And they are Jiang Hao's targets.
They just didn't know where the Spirit Yang Wood they were looking for was; it seemed they would have to go into the forest to search for it later.
Jiang Hao spotted a massive magical beast, swung his staff down, and the monster instantly appeared beneath Jiang Hao's staff.
This monster was a large creature that Jiang Hao had hastily chosen. Its massive body was about five or six meters tall, and it was currently lying on the ground with its head drooping, its forehead barely blocking Jiang Hao's staff before it even reached halfway down. It was covered in white fur and looked exactly like a giant polar bear, except that on its washing machine-sized head was a red flame pattern the size of a washbasin, and its entire body was engulfed in white flames, which even melted the ice and snow on the ground.
For a moment, the warrior Luo Zai, the archer Li Duofu, the mage Zuo Ming, and the priest Zhu Lin were all dumbfounded! They stared blankly at the huge magical beast that had suddenly appeared before them, wondering how it had gotten there.
Even though Qiu Si, the most timid person in the room, had already hidden behind Jiang Hao, he still couldn't help but tremble all over. His legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
Looking at the monster again, they discovered something even stranger. This suddenly appearing monster bear was lying motionless on the ground, its enormous body seemingly waiting for them to attack.
As for the others, they were all people who had fought monsters with Jiang Hao before. They knew that this was Jiang Hao's specialty. As long as they appeared under Jiang Hao's staff, no matter how powerful the monster was, it was destined to be controlled by him. There was no need to worry about the monster resisting.
Archer Sun Zhi let out a strange "giao" sound, nocked an arrow, and fired the first shot. Archer Ling Feng and assassin Fu Zigui followed closely behind and also began their attack. As for Yun Xinghe, he crossed his arms and showed no intention of making a move.
This was a diamond-level monster with a total HP of 5.2 billion, far exceeding the HP of any other monster of the same level that Jiang Hao had ever seen. Jiang Hao chose to bring this monster over primarily to select his summoned creature.
If he just randomly pulls out a monster and kills it, wouldn't that be a waste of his precious resurrection slot? There's another reason, though, is to allow other players who haven't followed him before to quickly get used to the combat style of being with him.
He replenished his stun duration while waiting for the others to join the fight. His attention, however, was entirely focused on Qiu Si behind him.
However, he seemed terrified, collapsing to the ground, his pants soaked. Jiang Hao shook his head slightly.
Finally, Luo Zai and Li Duofu made the first move. Luo Zai, holding a shield, also drew a large sword and slashed at the giant bear's head. The bear's expression froze. Its already small eyes widened even further, and its large mouth gaped open, making it look like an exaggerated cartoon character.
Then, as if he had discovered something, he glanced at Jiang Hao, then at Fu Zigui, Ling Feng, and Sun Zhi, who were currently engaged in a frenzied attack. He then sheathed his shield and began to unleash a brutal assault on the giant bear with his broadsword.
The archer Li Duofu reacted at about the same time as him. After the initial disbelief, he never stopped shooting arrows.
Qiu Si seemed to have noticed something amiss as well. He discovered that the giant bear seemed to be controlled by some kind of force, remaining motionless while his teammates attacked it relentlessly.
But he still didn't dare to move.
Jiang Hao couldn't help but sigh.
Luo, standing nearby, exclaimed in surprise, "What's going on? Why do I feel like my attack power has increased? And by such a huge amount? Almost 800,000 more damage per attack?"
Li Duofu nodded repeatedly and said, "Me too, me too, but I increased my damage by a lot, almost 1.6 million!"
Even Jiang Hao couldn't help but glance at Li Duofu again. Logically, his current talent damage was a little lacking, only reaching 6 million, but after the boost from his Ancient Martial Arts Thunderclap Technique, it would be 7.8 million. Luo Zai's damage increased by nearly 800,000, which is exactly a 10% increase, and that's correct.
However, Li Duofu's talent is double critical hit, which means that the damage from his own talent can also be critically hit by him.
Jiang Hao couldn't help but marvel at the extraordinary talent of Li Duofu.
Finally, Qiu Si, whom Jiang Hao had already mentally marked as giving up on, actually stood up shakily. After drawing his large sword, he carefully walked behind Jiang Hao and Luo Zai, and through the gap between them, he tentatively thrust his sword forward.
