Chapter 134: Assembling the Formation, The Magnificent Military Power of the Territory_2
Under this Commander Trait, once the enemy army is bombarded with magic, their state becomes extremely weak and dangerous.
Behind the Mage Corps, the elite melee main force of the domain started to appear.
First, there are a total of forty-seven Tier Four Crimson Chalice Battle Priestesses. They gather together, holding longswords, becoming the most stunning sight on the battlefield—over forty pairs of dazzling white long legs, more alluring than a girl group, attracting the attention of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield from all directions.
Of course, to protect this battle engine and multiplier of the army's combat power, Lin Rui has invested heavily in the domain's strongest Priest Legion. Fifty Tier Five Heroic Spirit Knights from the Saint Hall of the Goddess of Fortune will fight in mixed formations with them, defending the formation to the death.
They all fall under the command of Commander Terion, as does all the frontline infantry.
This includes a total of 127 Black Banner Guards, all of whom have been outfitted with [MK Thunderbolt Type Mecha], and 120 of them can form into a phalanx, capable of simultaneously triggering the traits [Shield Wall] and [Stand in Formation and Do Not Fight].
[Shield Wall·Elite-level Trait: When there are sufficient Black Guard around, their defense capability will increase. With 120 Black Guard, Physical Defense increases by 30%, blocks 48 points of damage, and gains +20% ranged resistance]
[MK Thunderbolt Type Mecha Set Attribute 2·Stand in Formation and Do Not Fight: Morale above 60, reflects 5% of all damage received, and increases reflected damage by 0.1% for each ally in the phalanx wearing the Thunderbolt suit, up to a maximum of 12%]
Additionally, 157 Manor Guards of the territory and thirty Dawn Fanatics are under Commander Terion's command.
The total number of soldiers arrayed here is 411. This means there are four phalanxes of elite frontline infantry directly under the domain.
Then, there are seventy-five Sun Flame Knights in the domain, including seventeen Rare Level Knights, six Heroic Spirit Knights, and two Lord-level Knight Kings, all under Wutong's command, completely depleting Wutong's Command Value.
But the effect is enough to shock any force in this world.
Wutong's Commander Trait [Holy Court Forbidden Army: All of the commander's soldiers have Life Value +100%, Spiritual Energy Value +100%, Damage Reduction +25%, Physical Attack +50%, Spiritual Strength +50%. Their attacks inflict 50% True Damage, 50% Divine Damage, and 50% Soul Damage, with a 20% chance to trigger Instant Death Damage. When the Forbidden Army's morale is above 60, they become immune to execution when Life Value is below 1 point during the next attack, forcibly locking life for 10 seconds. If they successfully slay an opponent during this period, after death, they will enslave the opponent's soul to enter the Netherworld in their place while continuing to fight in spirit form for 30 seconds. Cooldown 30 minutes]
Under this trait's blessing, even Tier Three Elite Knights might not be weaker than Tier Four Rare units. And the Knight King's might is enough to astonish everyone, and under this trait's blessing, a Tier Three Knight King can wreak havoc within a Tier Five army.
All other powerful units are under Lin Rui's command, becoming the domain's sharpest edge.
This includes two Tier Five Disaster-level Celestial Punishment Fear Knights above the Lord-level.
The words "Disaster-level" alone are enough to describe their combat power, worthy of being termed World Destruction level units, especially as they are Tier Five!
Within the empire, any area corrupted by Chaos, the deployment of Celestial Punishment Fear Knights signifies the signing of an extermination order.
Regardless of whether it's Chaos Demons or the Imperial guards in the area, they will all be exterminated by the Celestial Punishment Fear Knights, eliminating all possibilities of spread from a physical standpoint.
Each Celestial Punishment Fear Knight consumes a Command Value of 2048 points!
Above the Disaster-level are the Epic-level units the entire domain is most familiar with.
Because Lin Rui, the Lord of Golden Pansy Domain, has most of their traits at the Epic level.
Tier Four Epic-level Su Ye and Tier Five Disaster-level Celestial Punishment Fear Knights have equivalent combat powers, and their Command Value consumption is the same, each being 2048 points.
Just to command these three, half of Lin Rui's Command Value is consumed.
This shows the significance of even Elite-level and Ordinary Level units. If all subordinates were Disaster-level or Epic-level, the expansive front line couldn't be sustained.
In massive epic conflicts, no domain can rely on just a few individuals. Without considering whether they could cut down tens of thousands of the enemy, just their inability to be everywhere at once is fatal enough.
Lin Rui is a hero, and their Command Value has an enormous multiplier, barely able to command the domain's current army.
Lin Rui's remaining half of the Command Value couldn't be given to Su Xi, as the domain also has an extremely important Aerial Cavalry unit.
Through many iterations of trading at the Ogre Prisoner Camp and Recruitment Scroll exchanges, the domain now has nine Divine Watch Knights, making it one of the most ruthless aggressive units in the domain. All possessing Tier Three Heroic Spirit level strength, second only to the Celestial Punishment Fear Knights.
The number of knights is about to catch up to the Griffins, with even Commander Terion now standing with a warhammer in the midst of the military formation, no longer mounted.
The entire army is arrayed and ready, totaling over three thousand deep across a plains front over ten miles wide and three to four miles deep!
Even Dongg Qingxue couldn't hold back her excitement, trembling all over as she hovered in the sky riding her Horned Owl, witnessing this grand military presence on the ground. Even a woman cannot help but be drawn to the charm of war with swords and horses clashing!
The black tide of beasts, finally visible over the vast plains, became clear as the sun rose.
From the Ordinary Level Beastmen to a myriad of bizarre monsters, what was seen was the real manifestation of all mankind's nightmares and the entirety of the empire's enemies amalgamated with Chaos's malice together.
Upon seeing this scene, Wutong's usually calm expression finally changed; her burgundy robes fluttered in the dawn wind as she stood atop the Holy Temple Hall of Fortune, and even the charm of war's steel-tipped edge could not conceal her unparalleled elegance!
The Lucky Lady Priestess stood at another distant corner of the temple's pinnacle, watching from afar alongside Wutong, reluctant to defy her. She stood by, watching the army lined up to meet the rising sun.
As the sun rose, the forefront of the army revealed a black, stifling tide of beasts covering the wide plain.
From Ordinary Level Beastmen to Tier Three Elite-level Knights, all kinds of strange creatures filled the vista before them.
This time, the images of nightmare and terror of all mankind materialized as the world's monsters gathered against humanity.
The expression on Wutong's face, usually composed, finally shifted as she witnessed this scene. Her wine-red hair danced in the dawn breeze, and her lips quirked into a slight, elusive smile before settling into serene contemplation of the battlefield, unaffected by the chaos erupting before her.
Meanwhile, at the top of the military formation in front, Lin Rui was already riding the Griffin, hovering above as he began to command the battle.
With the initial onslaught of common Beastmen charging, it was the ideal time for the Celestial Punishment Hunters to strike.
Two Celestial Punishment Hunters, alongside two Celestial Punishment Fear Knights, spread out two miles apart at the front lines of the army, fully unleashing their devastation on every incoming demon creature, laying waste to them.
The Celestial Punishment Fear Knights fully displayed their Disaster-level might, effectively becoming World Destruction level units, especially as they were Tier Five!
Unleashing chaos, the Celestial Punishment Terrifying Knights erected a glaring silver wall of steel against the Chaos Demons. Driven by spiritual energy, each of their strikes inflicted continuous critical hits, reducing the demons' defenses nearly to zero as they approached.
Within the beast horde, the prowess of Su Ye and the Celestial Punishment Hunters was such that the battlefield was left scattered with dismembered corpses, showcasing the world's epic intensity!
