"What weapon in the world can compare to two hands?" Lu Ban chuckled, taking a few steps back to make room for the battle between the two twin puppets.
At this moment, the two puppets in the arena had already exchanged more than ten blows in the blink of an eye. Wang Yao discovered that Saruman's twin puppets were indeed like two people. The burly ocean god was the main attacker, while the black shadow formed by the cloak was constantly circling around the battle, launching surprise attacks on the opponent.
However, Lu Ban's twin puppets seemed inseparable. While the female main body was locked in a fierce battle with the opponent, the other puppet acted as a defensive support, only appearing to block attacks when the cloaked figure caught the female off guard.
Saruman's twin puppets relentlessly attacked, relentlessly pressing their opponent while wielding their twin swords in a dazzling display of light. Meanwhile, Lu Ban's twin puppets darted about amidst the flashing blades, maintaining a perfectly balanced distance with their opponent using uncanny agility.
Only in unavoidable moments of crisis will the woman, like her twin puppets, reach out to block her opponent's weapon.
The situation on the field seemed to be that Saruman's twin puppets had the upper hand, while Luban's twin puppets were constantly retreating and dodging. Before they knew it, the two sides were fighting near the fire circle drawn by Wang Yao. Obviously, the immortal's Samadhi True Fire was quite a threat to them, and the intensity of the fight between the two sides was somewhat restrained here.
At this moment, Lu Ban had already retreated back into the fire circle, and the God of Filling the Sea had also quietly come to Wang Yao's side.
"The puppet of the Ocean God is going to lose," the Lord of Reclamation whispered to Wang Yao.
"Huh?" Wang Yao turned his head in astonishment to look at the God of Reclaiming the Sea. He had only seen Lu Ban's twin puppets retreating step by step. Although they were not injured yet, they seemed to only be able to parry. How could they have lost?
However, in the brief moment he was distracted, a sudden exclamation erupted around him. Wang Yao hurriedly turned his head to look and saw that the situation on the battlefield had indeed reversed. The other of Lu Ban's twin puppets, which had never been completely separated from the main body, had somehow completely jumped out.
Her attire was exactly the same as the main character's, with her two hands holding up the cloaked shadow's hands that were holding a knife, while one of her right legs was raised high, with her toes touching the cloaked shadow's throat.
The female main body, who had been fighting all along, suddenly darted forward like a ghost after the twin puppets separated from her, and in the midst of the flashing blades, she got close to the foreign god puppet and firmly gripped the golden-haired foreign god puppet's neck with both hands.
Immediately, a soft "click" was heard, and amidst the exclamations of the surrounding crowd, Lu Ban's twin puppets quickly abandoned their opponents, and in a flash, they merged back into one, standing quietly on the spot as before.
The golden-haired goblin puppet had already fallen to the ground, while the cloaked shadow on the other side had transformed into an extremely shriveled and emaciated corpse, lying sprawled on the ground not far from the main body.
Wang Yao watched this scene, completely unaware of how it happened. He was about to ask Lu Ban when he suddenly heard a deafening roar of gunfire behind him. The demons surrounding the army's rear fell in droves, and divine soldiers and generals surged down from the sky to the ground.
"The rear guard has arrived!" Wang Yao's spirits lifted. At this moment, the main force of the reinforcements had all arrived. There was no point in delaying any longer. It was time to decide whether they would win or lose.
"Gentlemen, all troops, attack!" Wang Yao shouted, leaping onto "Immortal's Sorrow." He first reached out and put away the fire ring, then charged forward. Behind him, Lu Ban, Qin Su, Wu Ying, and even the Netherworld Clan and the demons who had caught their breath, followed suit and attacked in all directions.
As the army launched its charge, the opposing Demon Warriors also crashed head-on into the army with a thunderous roar, and the two sides engaged in fierce fighting. However, before long, Wang Yao felt that the demons on the battlefield were gradually dwindling, and the Demon Warriors seemed to have been almost completely wiped out.
Soon, only the allied forces of the demon, underworld, and god races remained on the entire mountainside, and apart from the corpses left on the battlefield, not a single demon who had ambushed the allied forces could be found alive.
As the soldiers charged forward, they realized there were no more enemies in sight. They stopped and looked around, all bewildered by the swift end of the battle.
"Master Lu, how exactly did Saruman's Twin Puppets lose?" Wang Yao placed "Immortal's Sorrow" next to Lu Ban and, seeing his eyes slightly closed and muttering incantations, couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
“That’s not Saruman.” Upon hearing this, Lu Ban opened his eyes a crack, frowned, and shook his head. Then, he flicked his finger, and something flew away from his hand like a shooting star.
"Not Saruman?" Wang Yao was greatly surprised.
“At first I also thought it was him, but judging from the level of those twin puppets, their master obviously hasn’t reached the level of a main god yet, so it shouldn’t be Saruman’s twin puppets,” Lu Ban explained in a low voice.
At this moment, two dark figures rushed in from afar. They were the low-level corpse puppet that Lu Ban had released earlier and the twin puppets that looked like women. The two puppets stopped when they reached Lu Ban's side and stood on his left and right behind him, like guards.
"What's going on with the demons? Why did they suddenly withdraw their troops when the battle was going so well?" Zhang Liang, covered in wounds, leaned close to Wang Yao and asked in a low voice.
"The army shall temporarily set up camp, take stock of the casualties, and Swift Wind shall quickly send out scouts to check on the situation of the demons ahead. Report back immediately if there is any news..." Upon hearing this, Wang Yao suddenly became clear-headed and quickly arranged for the army to rest.
The battle had been going on for a long time. Apart from the newly arrived rear guard of the gods who still had some strength, the other demons and monsters needed to rest and recuperate before they could continue their advance.
"Master, are you sure that the one speaking wasn't Saruman?" After arranging all the miscellaneous tasks, Wang Yao came to Lu Ban's side and asked again.
“I have never met Saruman and cannot confirm his accent, but I believe that with Saruman’s skill, his twin puppets should have been refined through countless trials and tribulations. How could he tolerate such inferior beings as substitutes?” Lu Ban slowly shook his head and said.
