Chapter 782: Poisonous Candy

The situation tilted in favor of the Baltic Empire.

The plague and famine were contained, and even the war as the commander of the Chinese army was forced to take up arms and come to the battlefield, which caused the army of the Attila Empire to lose its command system.

This was not the case with the armies of the old days, and if the commander was attacked and could not continue to give orders to the army, the whole army would easily fall into chaos and then collapse and scatter.

Even if death joins this battle with the undead at this time, it will be difficult to solve the current predicament of the Attila Empire's army, and it may even make the defeat of the Attila Empire even more ugly.

The undead have always been hated and feared by the living, and hastily allowing the undead to enter the battlefield where the living fight each other is likely to unite the two sides that were originally hostile, especially now that the army of the Attila Empire has lost its command.

The low-hanging fruit victory didn't put a smile on Bude's face

It seemed logical that the advantage he should have gained made him feel bad, even since the beginning of the war, the Baltic Empire army has suppressed the army of the Attila Empire on the frontal battlefield.

Such a logical order was too strange, the army of the Attila Empire should not be so vulnerable, and there were slight differences between the combat effectiveness of those few people and his memory.

The power that famine and plague are now manifesting can indeed be a thousand, but only to the extent that a thousand can be ridden, and other legends can do the same.

Thirty minutes was enough time for the half-giants to overwhelmingly crush the mammoths and bearmen's defenses, and they began to drive the fleeing soldiers to storm the still intact lines.

Some of the soldiers in the army of the Atila Empire have already begun to surrender, but in such a chaotic battlefield, the soldiers of the Baltic Empire will not accept such a surrender, and there is no way to distinguish between a real surrender and a fake surrender in such an environment.

In addition to this, accepting these surrenders will inevitably delay their time, will make their formation chaotic and very loose, and will give the enemy enough time to regroup.

In history, this has happened in many battles in which the first victory and then the defeat have occurred, and even some commanders will deliberately arrange for the weak and undetermined army to be placed in front to consume the enemy's physical strength and ammunition, and to hinder the enemy's marching speed.

The soldiers of the Attila Empire began to panic, and the development of events was very different from what they had expected, and they did not expect that the Baltic Empire would not accept their surrender at this time.

After the option of surrender was rejected, they could only turn around and run away quickly, throwing away everything on their bodies that would affect their speed as much as possible, pushing away the people in front of them hard, trampling on their companions who fell to the ground and struggling to get up.

The tactile sensation coming from the soles of his shoes had become extremely viscous, and the layer of sleek red under his feet made it impossible to distinguish between flesh and earth, and such chaos occurred almost every time the army of the Attila Empire fought, whether it was a victorious pursuit or a failed retreat and flight.

Ogres and trolls do not appear on the battlefield

Bud's brow furrowed, as the armies of the Attila Empire began to rout, the usual way was to put in new troops to stop the rout.

Judging from the battle reports from other battlefields not long ago, the opponent usually chooses ogres and trolls, especially after the appearance of the half-giant troops, only ogres and trolls can resist them.

The mammoth is also not present, which is very abnormal, and the mammoth domesticated and controlled by the mammoths is their most feared hole card on the battlefield, and it is the key to their ability to gain a foothold in the main plane.

Especially when facing the soldiers of the Baltic Empire, the Mammoth Giant's charge can help them tear through the enemy's line, which is one of the few ways they can cause trouble for the Baltic Empire's troops.

In addition, the dragon also did not appear on this battlefield, and the entire sky of the battlefield was only black and oppressive, and there was no trace of any flying creatures.

Bud didn't think it was because the clouds of negative energy in the sky were holding the dragon off, and that the army of the Attila Empire must be carrying out some kind of plan.

The scouts scattered around did not receive any useful information that there were no enemy troops in ambush within a radius of three kilometers, and that it was very difficult to ambush in this plain area without forests.

If there is no anomaly in the sky or on the ground, then it is likely that the enemy's ambush is underground, but as far as Bud knows, there are no troops in the Attila Empire that can move underground.

No, wait, there is indeed no one in the Attila Empire

But......

Bud looked down at the dark ground below that exuded a slight black aura, and looked at the soil that had been eroded by negative energy and had no way to grow normal plants.

Bud, who had already thought of something, turned his face very ugly, and he turned his head and gave the order to the herald next to him, which was a herald served by the spellcaster, and usually only let him exit if there was a very special and urgent situation.

It is true that there are no races in the Attila Empire that are good at moving underground, but in this land called Upland, there are ghosts that have lost their bodies and can pass through objects.

The casters who received the order began to stop what they were doing, and they looked down at the ground, having to admit that they had not taken into account that the ghosts would attack from underground, and that it was indeed their negligence.

These spellcasters are often fighting with living enemies, and they have very few opportunities to fight the undead, because it is difficult to see the undead in the current main plane unless there is a special situation like Upland.

Even many people who have been spellcasters for many years have only seen the appearance of the undead in books, but this does not prevent them from dealing with the undead, because about how to deal with the undead, what magic is better to use, what magic is not suitable for use, what weaknesses of various undead are there, and what needs to be paid attention to, these things have been recorded in the textbooks of the Baltic Empire, and they need to review every year to meet the exam.

The golden light began to penetrate into the soil, and the negative energy that was unwilling to be dispelled turned into various shapes to counterattack, and after a few seconds, the negative energy without wisdom was completely suppressed, and the whole land was covered with soft golden light.

This is the opposite of negative energy, although with the ability of these casters, as well as the magic used in a hurry, it is not enough to completely purify this land, but it can still be done for a few hours temporarily.

Seeing the caster make arrangements, Bud pressed the bad premonition in his heart slightly, and when he looked up, there was a flash of light in the dark sky.

It wasn't like the sun, it had a completely different color from the light of lightning, it was a black glow, a color that had never been seen before, and if it was similar, it might only be a slight resemblance to the black diamond that appeared in the underworld.

The strangeness of the sky attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield, and even the half-giants who were driving away the remnants of the defeated army stopped and looked up at the sky.

Heavy breathing echoed in the field, and reflected in the pupils was a skeleton of black light, and black clouds filled with muscular giants.

Those with better eyes had opened their mouths in shock, and there were countless ghosts that made up the giant flesh, and the skin of the giant was covered with dense and twisted faces.

With a slight pause, all the faces opened their mouths and roared, and the silent roar echoed throughout the battlefield, and countless unprepared soldiers fell down with their ears covered, their faces rolling on the ground with painful expressions.

"I see......"

Two streaks of blood flowed out of Bud's ears and dripped to the ground, his pupils narrowed slightly, and the shock and loss on his face could not be concealed.

The Baltic Empire used the Yaats as bait and laid a trap against several knights, hoping to solve the high-end combat power of the Attila Empire in one fell swoop.

Without the assistance of a few knights, there is no way to maintain the normal operation of this country with only Attila, and it will only fall apart in an instant.

But unexpectedly, the Attila Empire was even more ruthless, and they used the entire army as bait to lay this trap at the risk of several knights being shot down.

After the appearance of the giant, there was no longer any possibility that the Attila Empire would retreat, but they were looking for victory, and as long as they could defeat this army, their own losses would be irrelevant.

Obtain this victory, use this victory to inflict heavy damage on the offensive of the Baltic Empire, and use this victory to condense the domestic morale that has become bad, so that they can see that the Baltic Empire is not invincible, but can be defeated.

Of course, such a victory is not without negative effects, if these Yaats are wiped out here, the crisis facing the Baltic Empire can be easily resolved, and the remaining Yaats will put their hatred on the Attira Empire and unite firmly under the banner of the Empire.

The first to react were the half-giants, who did not hesitate at all, stopped their movements, and began to retreat towards the outside, not to violate orders, but to preserve their strength when necessary.

Later, it was realized that Bud gave the order to retreat, and there was no need for such a situation to continue, and the low-hanging fruit victory had already turned into a candy made of poison at this time, which smelled sweet and delicious, but could not be swallowed.

The army that received the order began to retreat slowly, and the heavy catapults and bed crossbows had to be thrown away in place, and if they were all brought with them, they would really not be able to leave.

Except for the Legends who were still engaged in fierce firefights with several knights, only Bud and the rest of the Legends and spellcasters who had not entered the battlefield remained.

They will be responsible for buying more time for the retreat of the troops behind, and if they can, they will try to defeat the giant and bury the four horsemen of the Attila Empire in this land once and for all.

Seeing that the enemy had begun to retreat, and that the plague and famine were no longer left, they drove their forces with all their might, so that the power of the plague and famine would cover the land.

This is very well-known for soldiers who have been exhausted by the battle, like wheat being cut, and the soldiers have reached the ground in patches, their weak bodies have lost their strength, the strength to run and walk.

The situation has reached a very critical time, and the companions around who are still able to walk are not left, although it is very cruel, but the truth is so ruthless, whether it is the soldiers who fall to the ground waiting for death to come, or the soldiers who run away quickly with tears in their eyes, they all understand that if they continue to delay, no one can be saved, and everyone will die.

Seven legendary spellcasters who enslaved the flames teamed up to control the flames to form a cage around the plague, and the rapidly shrinking cage confined the plague to a very small extent.

The land that has been turned into a magma field, a giant hand made of pure magma is shaking towards the plague, and if it is really hit, with the current state of the plague, it will definitely not be pleased.

The situation on the Famine's side was similar, the snow-white snowflakes turned into crystal clear chains in mid-air, and the dense sound of breaking the air kept ringing, so as not to be bound by these chains, Famine kept moving in the air.

Despite this, there were already traces of freezing on his armor, and the air he exhaled had turned into a white mist, which had gradually fallen into the wind.

The previously invincible ability has not been able to achieve any effect in the face of tactics developed against his weaknesses.

He couldn't even fight back, so he could only keep moving and covering his strength on the ground to show his value.

Things were no longer good on the other side of the war, as he had to deal with a legendary squad of two warriors, two archers, three spellcasters, and an assassin.

The cooperation between these legends was very tacit, confining him to a very small range, and he could only passively defend, and as time passed, scars began to appear on his body.

The last time he was so embarrassed, it was when he was fighting against the doppelganger of the gods, and he didn't think about it at all, but after a few decades, his opponent was completely different.

With the tacit legend and targeted tactics, he felt very aggrieved, and the martial arts and abilities of the whole body could only be played half at this time, which made him feel very aggrieved.
