The sacred words chanted throughout the city, the stars in the sky trembled and fell.
Facing a wide-range saturation bombardment of magic and divine arts, the battlefield in the forefront erupted in flames that stretched for dozens of miles. The flesh and blood of magic beasts and the limbs of giants were thrown high into the air, turning into a rain of blood that scattered down in drips and drabs.
The group of magic beasts, stunned by the explosions, instinctively turned around, flooding towards the breach opened by the divine blood heroes in an attempt to escape the fiery purgatory below the city.
“Bearing due east, distance two hundred meters, spearmen harass, drive these beasts toward the central area!”
“Bearing southeast, distance three hundred meters, archers, 45 degrees lob shot!”
“Bearing southwest, distance five hundred meters, launch a three-section ritual curse now!”
...
In front of the citadel, Luo En surveyed the whole situation, issuing crisp and clear commands to the mages, temple priests, and ordinary soldiers who were stationed, all through the resonance techniques that lit up before him.
The city defenders, united in spirit, carried out their orders tensely yet orderly, further amplifying the chaos in the ranks of the magic beasts and driving them to impact the formation of the Giant Spirit Clan.
Seeing this scene, Luo En nodded in satisfaction.
Since he was a teacher at the Academy of Athens and the proposer of the entire diversionary battle plan, and because the collapsing defense line of Thessaly needed his and Medea’s support, King Admetos had decisively entrusted him with the command of the battle before setting out to lure the enemy.
Ordinarily, assigning command on the eve of battle is a big taboo, but fortunately, the Academy of Athens had nurtured talents far and wide, not only as reinforcements from the surrounding city-states but even the local mages of Thessaly and divine blood warriors, many of whom had been trained at the Academy of Athens.
Indeed, they were truly the disciples of Apollo, the same style. Perhaps in the future, they could be nurtured as professional tanks, specifically responsible for taunting and attracting hate.
However, every cloud has a silver lining.
The golden light from the Spartan twins may have drawn hatred, but it also allowed the surrounding divine blood heroes to easily find their banner and subconsciously move toward their location.
Javelins shot fiercely, arrows sliced through the air, swords swung down... Under the barrage from the divine blood heroes, the giants, each fighting alone, were successively chopped down.
“Watch out for their Earth Divinity! Make it clean, don’t let them heal!”
After hearing the reminder from the citadel, the heroes paused briefly, then transformed into brutal executioners, unceremoniously hacking and slashing at the giants on the ground until they turned into piles of mush that could no longer wriggle or regenerate. Only then did they stop, swiftly picking up valuable bits and pieces from the bloody mess to store in their Magic Circle Diagrams as war spoils.
Even the scattered magic beasts nearby didn’t escape the group’s beating and plundering.
Watching the divine blood heroes on the battlefield, who resembled a plague of locusts yet without any impediment to their marching speed, Luo En couldn’t help but joke.
Well, this is what we call professional.
“Our allies are here. Let’s go, fight our way over and join them!”
