Chapter 605: Moths to the Fire
readx;
As time went by, the battle became more and more fierce, and the losses of the Tsunami Corps were far greater than those of the coalition forces, and the two sides were evenly matched on the frontal battlefield, and no one could take advantage, but the two sides of the Tsunami Corps were always in a situation of being disturbed.

However, as Benedict expected, Dio and Jarvis and the others were only harassing from a distance most of the time, and only rushed into the army to kill when they found a weak link, and then withdrew before the opponent's strong support arrived, so although the Tsunami Army was very difficult to support, it did not fall into a situation of insupport.
Can have such a situation, the water system saint-level powerhouse who tried to die with Dio is a great meritorious, if it is an evenly matched battle, then Jarvis and these people will not be too stingy with their lives, but the key is that this battle has been won, more than 100,000 people fight 15,000 people, there will be no suspense at all, because of this, they will not give the opposite side the opportunity to die with themselves, that is too cost-effective, as long as the army rushes out of the canyon and forms an encirclement of the remnants of the Tsunami Legion, they only need to pay a small price to completely annihilate the other party。
The attention of Dio and Jarvis was focused on the battle, and there was no time to think carefully about the reason why Benedict chose this place as the decisive battle, Schloss had some doubts, but he just couldn't figure it out, he couldn't have ordered Dio and Jarvis to storm the Tsunami Legion's army formation at any cost, and any commander who was a little more normal would not give such a ridiculous order.
The situation was developing as Benedict had envisioned, and of course, Benedict's price was terrible, with less than 8,000 men left in his army of 15,000 men, and there were still five hours to go.
Every minute, the soldiers of the Tsunami Legion fell in a pool of blood, but everyone was already numb, and the people around them fell, and even the warm blood splashed on their faces, their eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest, and if they had to find some changes, it would only become more ferocious.
No one knows if the person lying on the ground will be himself in the next moment, and no one wants to know the answer, at this moment, the soldiers on both sides only have infinite killing intent in their eyes, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing fill the inside and outside of the canyon, and on the ground, there is already a river of blood.
Laura suddenly stopped, turned her head, and frowned in the direction of the canyon, the strange feeling became more and more intense, although Laura was not sure what it was, but her long-standing instinct told her that there must be something terrible hidden there.
Dio noticed Laura's expression, for some reason, a sense of foreboding also rose in his heart, since the last time, Laura has not changed his opinion, one mind believes that there must be something strange here, but the problem is that even Laura herself can't explain the reason, it is completely dependent on intuition to judge, Dio has no way to discuss this matter with others solemnly.
"Don't think about it. Dio could only comfort Laura with this, anyway, this encounter would not be over in a long time, and then the large army would continue to advance, and whatever was here had nothing to do with them.
The battle continued, and in the face of the pervasive attacks of Dio and Jarvis, the strong men of the Tsunami Legion could not defend themselves even if they had three heads and six arms, and each wave of attack would take the lives of dozens or even nearly a hundred warriors.
There was only less than an hour left before the scheduled time, and the Tsunami Legion had reached the end of its crossbow, and there were still less than 3,000 samurai still in combat, and even if all these 3,000 samurai survived after this battle, the Tsunami Legion would have died in name only.
However, when he received this task, Benedict had already expected this outcome, as long as the task could be completed, even the cost would be worth it, including his life.
The fewer the Tsunami Legion, the greater the price it would have to pay if they wanted to firmly block the exit of the canyon, and those saint-level powerhouses had no time to support the frontal battlefield, as long as they slackened a little, Dio and Jarvis would not hesitate to break into the military formation and kill.
Twenty minutes passed, and there were only about 2,000 samurai left in the Tsunami Legion who could stand, and the situation was already extremely critical, and at this rate, it was very likely that the coalition forces would be rushed out of the canyon before the scheduled time.
Benedict's face changed, and he finally took a deep breath: "Follow me and rush in!"
"What?!" Since the Tsunami Legion's military formation had shrunk by half, those saint-level powerhouses who were responsible for resisting the sneak attack had heard Benedict's words very clearly, but everyone's reaction was similar, that is, did they hear it wrong?
It is already an absurd order to want to stop an army of more than 100,000 with only 15,000 men, and now Benedict is still going to launch a counterattack?!
The specific content of the task is only known to Benedict, and Benedict is not in the mood to make any explanation at this time, but just said lightly: "This is the task entrusted to me by His Majesty, and you have the right to choose." ”
After saying that, Benedict walked towards the battlefield in front of him, leaving a group of saint-level powerhouses looking at each other, what kind of joke are you kidding, do you still need to choose? That's right, the result of rushing over may be that everyone will die, but if you can't complete the task entrusted by Your Majesty, the consequences will not be so simple, not to mention them, even their families may not be able to escape the doom.
Schloss, who was on the tower, noticed the anomaly on the other side, and his eyes widened in surprise, what did Benedict want to do?!
Benedict didn't give Schloss much time to think, he flew straight up, the blue light in his hand flashed, and he yelled, "Follow me in!"
Before the words fell, a ball of azure water burst out from Shiloss's hand, and when it flew into the sky above the coalition forces, the water balloon suddenly exploded, and countless blue water droplets fell like a torrential downpour, and the coalition warriors within a range of tens of meters screamed and fell to the ground under this dense attack, these water droplets actually had terrifying penetrating power, and the rock guard of the earth warriors became as fragile as a piece of paper, and was easily penetrated by these water droplets。
Not to mention the samurai of other departments, they had no ability to resist at all in the face of the attacks of saint-level powerhouses.
Compared to Benedict's strength, the samurai of the Tsunami Legion were much more silent, and rushed into the canyon after Benedict without saying a word.
Or rather, after such a long period of fierce fighting, these samurai have become completely numb, since the Legion Commander said to rush forward, then rush well, as for what the consequences will be, no one thinks about this boring question.
"Crazy......" Schloss stood there dumbfounded, he couldn't believe what he saw, if Benedict had taken this desperate offensive at the beginning, Schloss might have been a little scared, but now he has no worries about this at all, the Tsunami Legion only has about 2,000 people left, what can he do desperately? It's just a moth to the fire, does Benedict still hope to be able to recover the defeat?
Seeing that Benedict led a group of saint-level powerhouses to rush into the canyon without looking back, Dio and Jarvis and the others were also stunned, and they couldn't think of any reason for the other party to do so, but they quickly reacted, this was the perfect opportunity to surround the Tsunami Legion, under the front and back attacks, it was impossible for anyone to escape, you must know that there was still Darth Wood, a divine warrior, in the coalition.
So Dio and Jarvis and others outflanked from the rear of the Tsunami Legion, and began to wantonly slaughter the warriors who fell behind, and Benedict in front seemed to have been carried away by the defeat, and even didn't care about the life or death of the soldiers in the rear, just blindly rushed, with Benedict and a group of saint-level powerhouses as the forward, the samurai of the coalition army suddenly fell one by one, and the absolute gap in strength was not at all something that could be made up by numbers.
Time passed quietly in the brutal killing, and when the thick smell of blood filled every corner of the air, Laura, who was following Dio, suddenly shook violently, and looked at the depths of the canyon in disbelief, with an expression of extreme surprise on her face.
"What's the matter?!" Dio threw out two air slashes, and looked at Laura helplessly, now is the moment of racing against time, one step through the enemy formation, you can stop Benedict's killing in advance, and the loss on your side will be smaller.
"It's a fall!" Laura grabbed Dio: "Let them retreat, the canyon is full of falls!"
"What?" Dio was confused, isn't Fall that kind of monster? There are so many saint-level powerhouses here, what is there to be afraid of?
"You ......" Laura began to stutter again, in fact, even if Dio understood her, it was too late, because at that moment the ground in the canyon suddenly began to shake like boiling water, and countless arched dirt bags appeared on the surface, causing the warriors to retreat to one side.
The next moment, the earth bags shattered, and black shadows burst out of them, and in the blink of an eye, nearly a thousand samurai disappeared without a trace, but this was only the beginning, as the ground shook more and more violently, the surface of the canyon appeared like a small mountain, and then one by one the mother bodies broke through the ground, revealing their hideous bodies.
Compared to the derivatives, the lethality of the mother body can be called terrifying, and the samurai fell to the ground with a scream, and the skin touched by the acid quickly decayed and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, until the white bones of the forest were revealed.
"Let's go!" Benedict saw that he had achieved his goal, and that he would stay for a long time, and turned his head and killed the exit of the canyon.
