"Spears, fire with all your might!"
Champion Hou's thunderous roar once again resounded across the smoke-filled battlefield, like a sharp lightning bolt piercing through the tense and oppressive air.
From the Demon Suppression Army, two hundred agile and stern-faced soldiers emerged like a tidal wave. Each of them held a long spear, which gleamed with a chilling light in the sunlight, like the blade of death.
These men charged forward like tigers descending a mountain, and then the spears they gripped flew out like arrows released from a bow, whistling through the air, like streaks of black lightning, towards the sky-covering, overwhelming swarm of flying bats.
At this moment, the dense swarm of flying bats was still some distance away from the positions where the Demon Suppression Army and the City Defense Army were on high alert.
But precisely because of this, the spearmen also had a relatively suitable angle for throwing their spears.
Marquis Champion was well aware of the gravity of the situation. He knew very well that if his soldiers failed to seize this fleeting opportunity, and the flying bats got any closer, dealing with these menacing flying bats would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.
These spearmen were all highly skilled warriors, trained through countless trials and tribulations, and all possessed martial arts mastery.
With a single throw, their spears shot out, soaring into the distant sky like dragons emerging from the sea.
The flying bat soared dozens of meters high, forming a black cloud in the air. However, the spears fired by the Demon Suppression Army carried the force of wind and thunder, streaking across the sky like meteors and striking right in front of the flying bat.
If these birds flying in the air were ordinary eagles or the like, they would surely be pierced through by the spears and die instantly when faced with such a sharp attack.
However, the hundreds of flying bats simply flapped their huge, fan-like wings dismissively, and a powerful gust of air surged out, directly blasting away the menacing spears.
Some spears were even sent flying backwards by the powerful airflow, hurtling towards the positions of the Demon Suppression Army and the City Defense Army like vicious hidden weapons.
In an instant, screams rang out like thunder in the positions of the Demon Suppression Army and the City Defense Army.
Some soldiers were unable to dodge in time and were wounded by the spears that flew back, causing blood to splatter.
The most tragic were those dozens of people who were pierced through the body by spears, their bodies falling limply, their lives ending in an instant.
When Wu Hanchun saw this horrific scene, she turned pale with fright, her legs went weak, and she retreated repeatedly. She was a young lady from a wealthy family. Although she had been cultivating for many years and had become a martial artist, she had never been on a battlefield or faced such a dangerous situation.
She was terrified.
Under her influence, some members of the city defense force felt a surge of fear and began to retreat involuntarily.
It was clear that the morale of the city's garrison had wavered and had plummeted to an all-time low.
"No retreating! Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed!"
Upon seeing this scene, the Marquis of Champions' eyes flashed with a sharp, cold light. He let out a cold snort, his voice seemingly carrying endless majesty and killing intent.
Immediately afterwards, he slashed out with his sword, and a dark blue-green sword aura swept towards a dozen or so retreating city defense soldiers like a surging wave.
These dozen or so soldiers had no time to react and were directly killed by the sharp blade energy, their blood splattering all over the ground.
This bloody scene shocked the city's garrison, preventing them from retreating any further. They had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue holding their ground.
But the next moment, as if it were a cruel punishment from heaven, the flying bats suddenly let out a strange cry, a sharp and piercing cry that sounded like a wail from hell.
Then, they spewed out huge fireballs from their mouths. These fireballs, like burning meteorites, carried intense heat and an aura of destruction, and crashed down from the sky onto the positions where the Demon Suppression Army and the City Defense Army were waiting in full battle array.
In an instant, the demon-suppressing army and the city defense army were thrown into chaos and disarray.
Many soldiers were instantly engulfed in flames, which devoured their bodies like demons.
The fire spewed by the flying bats was far more powerful than ordinary fire. The flames had an eerie blue color and were difficult to extinguish once they touched the skin. Many soldiers were burned to ashes in their painful struggles, and a pungent smell of burning filled the air.
For a moment, screams rang out continuously, as if it were a living hell.
Wu Hanchun was so frightened that her face turned as white as paper, her body trembled, and she could barely stand.
"You Sanqian, City Lord Wu, Wu Yi, follow me and wipe out these wretched flying bats!"
"Champion Hou!" he roared, his voice filled with determination and anger.
He knew that this problem had to be solved immediately, otherwise, before other demonic beasts could launch an attack, the Demon Suppression Army and the city defense army would be wiped out by the flying bats, and they might all perish here today.
However, he was unaware that this menacing group of monsters had actually come for revenge.
Because Fang Han, Tantai Qiuyue, and other members of the Demon Suppression Division had killed so many demon beasts, they had aroused the demon beasts' anger and hatred.
The two Nine Nether Ice Lions leading the group are the cubs of the Nine Nether Ice Lions that Fang Han killed earlier. They are filled with hatred and are leading the demon beast army to seek revenge.
Although Fang Han was incredibly powerful, like a god of war, a rare burrowing rat still managed to escape with its agile movements and stealth abilities. It ran wildly and relayed the message back to the demon beasts.
Fang Han, Tantai Qiuyue, and the other members of the Demon Suppression Division had already left, so the demons surrounded Champion Marquis and City Lord Wu and the others, and a brutal life-or-death battle began.
