At the front of the battlefield, Xiao Chen, Gabriel, Metatron and Ye Zi stood among the groups of golems and spirit warriors, waiting for the enemy team to rush in. Behind them were Glade, Maya, Evelyn and other high-level mages and warriors.
Marcus and Cynthia were leading the team. When they saw the support of Gabriel and others, they slowed down, preferring to endure more gunfire and artillery fire rather than advance recklessly.
Because even if he didn't know the strength of others, he knew the level of the two battle angels with wings spread behind him. He had to wait until Stuart and Duke Weber in the back caught up, otherwise it would be dangerous to rush forward.
Although Marcus was usually hot-tempered, he was unusually calm on the battlefield. He kept a distance of more than 200 meters from the Chinese Tower team. He ordered his personal guards and the beastmen to disperse on the spot, and then fought back with bows and arrows. Because the beastmen were very powerful, the bows they used were much heavier than those of ordinary soldiers, and the maximum range could exceed 300 meters. This could threaten Xiao Chen's spirit warriors.
However, Xiao Chen and his team did not give them a chance to breathe. The guns and cannons of the golems and spirit servants never stopped, and the mages behind him kept throwing magic at Marcus and his team. In the team led by Marcus, there were constant explosions caused by pneumatic cannons, various elemental magics constantly blasting, and various mental magics and status magics interfering.
This state of shooting lasted for less than five minutes, and Marcus realized that although his side had more people, the result of such a stalemate would inevitably be that his side would collapse first. Not to mention that the arrows could not cause much damage to the opponent's golems and masters. Even those ordinary-looking soldiers had shields cast by the opponent's mages in front of them. The number of mages on his side was very limited, and they could only provide protection for his personal guards and could not take care of ordinary soldiers at all.
"Father! Why don't we let the beasts charge first? Even if the losses will be huge, there will always be people charging forward. Our numbers are many times that of the enemy, and we can defeat them with numbers alone." Cynthia said.
"No, that's not the case. I originally had the same idea as you, but now, in front of the enemy, I find that it won't work. If it were just those guns and cannons, the beasts could fill it with their lives. But the enemy still has several masters and a large number of experts watching there.
Originally, if we could hold back their masters and high-ranking warriors, our beast warriors could charge forward, but now the other side has far more masters in the middle than us. If we go up, we won’t be able to come back. Are you going to sacrifice the elite of your family to cover for those lowly people?"
“Father, we are the owners of the golden dragon bloodline, but we may not lose to these guys.” Cynthia was still eager to try.
"Cynthia, on the battlefield, we can't just look at the situation at one time or one place, all parts are related." Marcus said, "Did you see that mage Xiao Chen, the great magician of the spiritual system! There are also two battle angels, they didn't make a move, just waiting for us to get close. Franco's side has been defeated, and the battle angel over there can come over at any time. Gandas and the others in the sky seem to have been suppressed by the opponent. Do you really think that the two of us are sure to escape from such a siege?"
"So what should we do?" Cynthia asked.
"Of course I'm calling for help!" Marcus called a guard beside him and said, "Quick, go tell Stuart and Weber. The number of masters on the other side is beyond our expectations. Tell them to come up quickly. Otherwise, I won't be able to fight this battle. If I die, they will be the next to die."
"Marcus turns out to be a coward." Gabriel said disdainfully on the other side of the battlefield, "It seems that he won't dare to fight us unless we have an advantage in the number of masters."
"Time is on our side." Xiao Chen said, "My mental strength is recovering quickly, and the battle in the sky is under our control. The longer it takes, the fewer resources they will have."
Gabriel said to Ye Zi: "How is your control over the Arena?"
Ye Zi glanced at the gun in his hand and said, "I have never activated it since He Xiaoxi used it last time. Since I punished the Shadow Gun, it rarely speaks to me on its own initiative. I don't know to what extent I can use it."
Gabriel said, "It doesn't matter. Divine weapons are unruly. You can only make them obey you completely to exert their maximum ability. Now you are at the peak of the high level. Holding the Anti-Shadow Gun, you should be at the master level. So it is enough to absorb the opponent's master level into the God of War Arena."
"Are you going to fight the other side in the God of War Arena?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Why not? The battle between masters is a very dangerous thing. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. Therefore, any favorable factors must be used. The God of War Arena is a scene that we are more familiar with. Fighting in it will naturally give us an advantage. And as long as we win, we can use the opponent's vitality to heal our wounds. There is no battlefield more suitable for dealing with those guys than this.
Moreover, once we enter the Arena, we will cut off the possibility of the other side escaping. Unless one side dies completely or surrenders, there is no way out. The Imperials have far more masters than us overall, but many of them are now deployed in the north to defend against orcs, or fighting the Kingdom’s army in the east. We have used all the forces we can mobilize to gain a little advantage on this battlefield. If one day they use all their forces to fight us, it will be a big problem. Therefore, if we have the opportunity to eliminate a master, we must eliminate him.”
"That's right. It's better to break one finger than to hurt ten. As long as we get through this hurdle, we will have more and more masters and even saints born. Then we won't have to worry about the empire anymore." Xiao Chen nodded in agreement.
Ye Zi asked, "But I don't know how to choose the candidates to enter the victory arena."
Gabriel said: "You have reached a new realm. When you use the Arena again, you will understand. Remember, even if your realm is improved, the number of people that the Arena can accommodate is limited. Only select their masters to come in. Don't worry about the other warriors. Leave those people to Huang Zheng and Glade to deal with."
"Well, I understand." Ye Zi raised the Anti-Shadow Gun and slowly communicated with it, preparing for the reopening of the God of War Arena. (To be continued)
