Chapter 1349: The Ever-Changing Battlefield
The dazzling Spell Weiguang illuminated the deep starry sky as if it were broad daylight. Under the night sky, the brilliant rose and dim dark green intertwined, continuously generating wave after wave of breathtaking energy.
When the Giant Troll's group magic, Bone Eroding Fall, descended above the Flower Fairy army formation, the Flower Fairies did not let the green light curtain pouring down from midair last too long. Instantly, massive fiery magic beams shot out one after another from the formation, quickly dispersing the black clouds overhead and making them disappear.
After shattering the Troll's magic with the force of a thunderclap, the chanting of the Flower Fairy army grew even more resounding, clearly continuing with a victorious pursuit. Not only did they summon dozens of Giant Flower Knights again, but the already awe-inspiring rose arrow rain also unleashed its full firepower, continuously whistling towards the equally immense Troll formation.
Under the Flower Fairies' seemingly unstoppable attack, the Giants of the Troll camp, summoned to fight, were howling and falling under the siege of the Giant Flower Knights, while the Absolute Defense Barrier, flashing with eerie dark green light, quickly dimmed. It looked precarious and on the verge of collapse.
"As expected of the Flower Fairies, their magical power is undoubtedly the most formidable among these four grand armies."
Feeling the fierce wind constantly impacting the Barrier Wall of the fortress, Broy adjusted the crown atop his head and couldn't help but exclaim,
if the opponent were to attack the Waterfall Watcher Fortress with this intensity, then the newly restored Absolute Defense Barrier here would undoubtedly be unable to withstand for too long, perhaps even shatter at the slightest touch.
"Indeed, purely in terms of long-range magic attack, the Flower Fairies are unmatched in these four grand armies and truly have the capital to be arrogant."
Shuert gently stroked his wooden beard and nodded slightly.
"Why do you boost others' morale and lower your own? In my opinion, there's nothing remarkable about this. If the Wood Fairies were at their peak, they would hold their own as well."
Crisis's crisp voice held a touch of disdain as she pouted: "Hiding one's prowess is the truly wise approach. Flaunting their magical strength so ostentatiously on the battlefield, aren't they afraid of biting their tongues in the strong wind?"
"Lord Clan Leader, your words are too harsh. We have no intention of praising the opponent; we're merely discussing the facts. The Dwarf Elves fear no opponent."
Broy composed himself and replied to Crisis.
"Indeed, although the Flower Fairies are quite powerful, as Lord Clan Leader of the Wood Fairies said, this is a tumultuous battlefield where matters change in the blink of an eye. Temporary dominance doesn't equate to being the final victor."
Shuert's old, wooden face remained composed as he gently stroked his wooden beard, then looked towards Leo Ray, inquiring: "What does Your Majesty of the Humans think?"
After Shuert finished speaking, both Crisis and Broy also turned their gazes towards him.
At the center of everyone's attention, Leo Ray squinted slightly. While keeping a close eye on the other side of the Giant Valley where winds and clouds were gathering, he nodded slightly and said: "I agree as well. It seems that changes on the battlefield are imminent."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, everyone refocused their attention on the fierce duel between the Flower Fairies and the Trolls.
Under the increasingly fierce offensive of the Flower Fairy army, the Troll army was barely holding on, with more than half of the Giants having been destroyed. Moreover, fine cracks had begun to appear on the Absolute Defense Barrier, indicating they were nearing their limit.
"Is the outcome about to be decided? It seems that the Troll army won't hold out much longer!"
Broy kept his eyes wide open, closely observing the battlefield and said: "In the Outer Region, the Trolls have a notorious reputation. If the Flower Fairies can give them a good lesson, it would undoubtedly be quite satisfying!"
Hearing Broy's words, not only Shuert but even Crisis nodded helplessly.
If she had to choose a victor between the Flower Fairies and the Trolls, she would still be inclined towards her boastful distant relatives.
On the long City Wall of the Waterfall Watcher Fortress, not only Leo Ray and the other leaders but also the surrounding strong combatants and Generals of their side were all watching intently, closely observing every move on the battlefield.
"Everyone, don't you feel that something seems amiss?"
Just when most people were eagerly anticipating the collapse of the Troll front, Leo Ray's voice suddenly broke the silence.
"Your Majesty of the Humans is absolutely right; something does indeed seem off."
Wisdom glittered in Shuert's old eyes as he concurred: "The Troll army's actions appear to be quite unusual."
"Unusual?"
Broy rose on his toes, carefully scrutinizing every detail on the battlefield.
Under the fierce onslaught of the Flower Fairies, the vast Troll army resembled a solitary boat swaying amidst stormy waves, seemingly on the brink of capsizing at any moment.
After all, the long-range attack of the Flower Fairies was overwhelmingly strong. The Trolls, whose long-range capabilities were relatively weak, were undoubtedly in a completely vulnerable position, unable to retaliate at all.
"I think I've also identified the anomaly!"
Realizing quickly, Broy blurted out: "While their long-range capabilities are inferior to their opponents, the Trolls are extremely formidable in close combat. In such a passive situation, they should proactively close the distance to turn the tables, or at least retreat to avoid their opponent's edge. Why are they seemingly standing still and taking the hits?"
