Chapter 304: 295

"Here are five hundred city defense giant crossbows, in addition to five thousand fine steel giant arrows. Distribute them; let these Evil Spirits Tribe members taste the terror of being slaughtered once they arrive!"

Although Xiao Chen’ words were delivered with a slight smile, a chill passed through everyone’s hearts. Five hundred city defense giant crossbows and five thousand fine steel giant arrows, each about a foot in length and as thick as a baby’s arm, if they pierce through a body, few would survive.

These are city defense giant crossbows and they possess formidable power. Even warriors who have just entered the Blood Refining Realm would face potential danger if they were hit. Five hundred city defense giant crossbows firing fine steel arrows all at once, which army could withstand such a force? At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the impending fate of the Evil Spirits Tribe.

This batch of city defense giant crossbows represents nearly a year’s worth of the Gu Yuan Tribe craftsmen’s storage. In the past, the Gu Yuan Tribe was weak and couldn’t create such large-scale weapons. However, after Xiao Chen became the tribal chief, the Tribe gained aboundant resources. From the fierce beasts hunted daily to the numerous mine veins collected, these resources have been transformed into real weapons of war under Xiao Chen’s instruction, becoming the backbone of the Gu Yuan Tribe strength.

For this expedition, Xiao Chen specifically brought these five hundred city defense giant crossbows. Unfortunately, the Blood Clan did not have the opportunity to taste the feast of these fine steel arrow feathers piercing through their flesh.

Five hundred city defense giant crossbows plus five thousand fine steel arrow feathers, each a foot long, piled up to form a small hill. Even knowing that Xiao Chen has a valuable treasure for storage, everyone’s heart trembled at this sight. What grade was this storage magical treasure?

"Distribute these five hundred city defense giant crossbows and tell the Tribe’s warriors that once the scattered Evil Spirits Tribe warriors enter the valley, aim the crossbows at their centurions and sergeants. Strike hard, disrupting their formation. I want to see how these scattered Evil Spirit Clan soldiers can break through our tribal defenses without their low-level warrior commanders!"

Without time to express their joy, the six tribal leaders quickly ordered their warriors to distribute the giant crossbows. At this moment, they could already foresee the bloody disaster awaiting the Evil Spirits Tribe centurion warriors.

"Pass on the order for our warriors to conceal themselves. As Iron Hall Master said, the Evil Spirits Tribe should have three late-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors, plus two mid-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors. Their Blood Refining Realm warriors are only one less than ours. However, Iron Hall Master is severely injured right now and can only perform at eighty percent of his full strength; yet, he is still not comparable to a normal early-stage Blood Refining Realm warrior."

While watching the bustling tribal warriors on both sides of the valley, Xiao Chen murmured, "The Evil Spirits Tribe has five early-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors. Our side has Que Feng, Meng Yue, Lin Yue, Xiao Lin, and Xi Ming, all of whom are early-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors. The number of mid and late-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors is on par between both sides. However, the Gu Yuan Tribe has eleven two-star beasts. These are beasts that can contend with human Blood Refining Realm warriors. Accompanied by war chariots, they should easily take down their opponents!"

Bronze battle chariots are superior weapons of destruction on the battlefield. Moreover, in personal combat, warriors can use the war chariots to unleash several times their power and easily crush their opponents.

Knowing oneself and one’s opponent is the key to victory. By thoroughly analysing the strength of the enemy and oneself, it allows for strategic planning. At this moment, Xiao Chen has displayed the full capabilities of both the Evil Spirits Tribe and his own side. The true victory or defeat lies in the combat between the high-end forces of both tribes.

He brought out these five hundred city defense giant crossbows to minimize the casualties within the Tribe. After all, these six thousand warriors are the chosen elite from among the over a hundred thousand members of the Gu Yuan Tribe. If there are too many casualties, it will be hard for the Tribe to replenish, not to mention that he can’t bear to sacrifice so many lives over a minor alien tribe.

The last time they fought the Blood Clan in the valley, if not for the narrow valley entrance and the defensive measures set up by the Blood Clan, these city defense giant crossbows would have been able to strike first. However, this valley is different. These five hundred giant crossbows are enough to turn four thousand Evil Spirits Clan warriors into a slaughterhouse.

At this time, the people were once again about to depart to instruct the Clan’s warriors to go into hiding. Yet, Xiao Chen once again intervened, a cold, murderous intent resonating from every word he uttered, "However, are the warriors of my Gu Yuan Tribe comparable to these beasts?!"

"Tribe Chief!"

Hearing his words, the crowd once again became puzzled, looking in bewilderment at Xiao Chen standing ahead of them.

Xiao Chen waved his hand again, several black shadows fell, each at least ten feet tall. At the bottom was a colossal bronze base; on one side stood a massive wheel, patterns carved onto its surface with an unknown purpose. Above, black beast tendons, as thick as a grown man’s arm, clung tightly to the panel from where the arrow feathers were launched, with a large groove where the giant crossbow’s wheel and the arrow feather launch device connected.

On the side, there were ten giant arrows, each approximately fifteen feet long, shimmering with a dazzling constellation, the feathers of the arrows were unexpectedly made from medium-grade casting material, Star Iron.

What?!

Seeing Xiao Chen once again draw out several giant crossbows, these were several times bigger than those five hundred city defense crossbows from earlier. That city defense giant crossbow was already enough for a warrior who had just stepped into the Blood Refining Realm to lose his life in a moment of carelessness, as for a centurion, it can be fatal upon contact. Then, is it possible that... these bronze giant crossbows...

Thinking about this, everyone couldn’t help but look towards Xiao Chen, seeming to expect him to pull out another new weapon from his storage space.

"Tribe Chief, what’s this?"

"These six Bronze War Crossbows were obtained by chance. After being repaired by the tribe’s craftsmen, although some replacement materials were used, their power is still beyond the defense of an ordinary Blood Refining Realm warrior. These giant crossbows are powered by Yuan stones, but the recoil is very strong. A Centurion-level warrior can hardly shoot two arrows. However, as long as these giant crossbows fire once today, it will be enough to give us an advantage in the battle!"

These six Bronze War Crossbows were brought out by Xiao Chen from the relics of the Underground Purple Snake Battle Department. However, after ten thousand years of erosion, along with the lack of some precious casting materials and mine veins, the tribe’s craftsmen managed to repair only nine. Although not as powerful as they were ten thousand years ago, they are still hard for a mid-term Blood Refining Realm warrior to deflect. Of these, three were left in the tribe, and six were brought here.

"With proper operation, these six Bronze Giant Crossbows can pierce through a mid-stage Blood Refining Realm warrior. However, for Late Stage Blood Refining Realm warriors, they are somewhat powerless. Therefore, the handling of these six Bronze War Crossbows will be done by some elders and thousand-man commanders who have reached or surpassed the mid-stage of the Blood Refining Realm. I, as a tribal chief, will also use one. Once these Evil Spirit Clan thousand-man commanders enter the valley, we will immediately kill warriors under Blood Refining Realm mid-term, leaving those late-stage Blood Refining Realm warriors for us to slowly deal with them!"

Seeing the murderous intent flashing in Xiao Chen’s eyes, yet with a smile on his face, an thought occurred to everyone at the same time.

"Is the chief trying to completely decimate this Evil Spirits Tribe!"
