Chapter 525: Chapter 262 Attack! _1

The moment the enormous, corpulent wraith entity appeared on the battlefield, a brief turmoil ensued amongst the Earth Thorny Dragon Knight brigade, but it didn’t slow their charge. Once a knight initiates a charge, there is no turning back.

The two sides quickly collided on the front lines.

"Bang!"

An earth thorny dragon, utilizing its potent gravitational force, brutally slammed into one of the corpulent wraiths. The immense impact staggered the wraith, causing it to stumble backward, only for another corpulent wraith behind it to halt it in its tracks. The charge of the Earth Thorny Dragon brigade was abruptly blocked, as if they had crashed into a dam.

Their lances, eight meters long, penetrated the gargantuan bodies but struggled to go any deeper, as if they were stabbing into tough bull hides.

The obese wraiths seemed entirely impervious to pain, directly grappling the lances with their hands, even using their bodies to embrace the earth thorny dragons. Consequently, the charging force of the Earth Thorny Dragon brigade was significantly disrupted.

"Luminosity!" The leading knight bellowed, and instantly, a powerful holy light erupted from the knights. Coupled with the Power of Luminosity, the charging force of the Earth Thorny Dragon brigade significantly increased, prying the obese wraiths a tad further apart.

The ten knights at the forefront of the charge, without hesitation, deployed their suicidal knightly skills. Under the brilliant red light and sacrifice release, the knights and the power of the earth thorny dragons fused, smashing into the obese bodies. Their lances pierced relentlessly, but the obese wraiths, acting as though they were invincible, continued to fight regardless of their bodies being perforated.

Their weapons appeared crude, some were large bones, others just massive rocks. Contrasted with human weapons, their weapons were mere trinkets, but their strength was staggering. Some earth thorny dragons were even bodyslammed by them.

With the knights at the vanguard creating a path by sacrificing themselves, the Earth Thorny Dragon brigade finally forced their way through the horrifying wraith entities. However, over thirty Earth Thorny Dragon Knights were left behind among the terrifyingly massive wraith entities.

These ferocious wraith entities ripped apart the bodies of the Earth Thorny Dragons and their knights on the battlefield. They even started stuffing their mouths with them without bothering to remove their armors.

At this point in the war, there were casualties among the humans, and in such a grisly manner at that.

The Earth Thorny Dragon brigade may not consist of high-ranking knights, but they were still extremely valuable. The loss of nearly one-tenth of them in a single charge was a significant blow for the Knights Temple. But the appearance of the obese wraiths was too sudden for any rescue attempts to be made.

The mage brigade had a chance to recuperate and promptly began launching volleys of magical attacks, targeting the wraith legion.

In the sky above, the collision between the six-winged blazing seraph and the Fear Sovereign continued.

Viewing the Earth Thorny Dragon Knights being ripped to shreds, the faces of the demon hunters on the lookout tower turned sullen. Such brutal scenes were beyond their expectations. These wraith entities seemed void of all emotions; they only knew how to attack and slay.

The obese wraiths that had devoured the Earth Thorny Dragon Knights gradually began emitting a dark red glow. More blood vessels appeared on their sickly pale skin, and their aura surprisingly grew even stronger.

"When will the Federation deploy their formidable warriors?" Ming Xi couldn’t help but clench his fists, itching to join the battle.

"They’re still testing the waters. The wraith legion is still a mystery to us; we don’t know how many powerful entities they have or what kinds they are. We can’t go all out without a thorough understanding; we must have some reserves," remarked one of the demon hunters.

One after another, earth walls rose to halt the onslaught of the wraith legion. At Blessed Sun City direction, golden light began to surge once more. Rays of healing light descended from the sky, landing on the wounded knights. The armored infantry took over the central defense that the Earth Thorny Dragon brigade had initially held.

The summoner brigade had once again opened the summoning portal, releasing summoned beasts toward the wraith legion. The battlefield subsequently entered a deadlock.

Time passed amidst this intense warfare. The clash in the sky lasted a full hour, until the Fear Sovereign plummeted from the sky, crashing into the wraith legion, causing his aura to drastically decline, and the six-winged blazing seraph vanishing from sight.

The Fear Sovereign’s nightmare demon steed had disappeared. Missing his right arm and leg, he seemed incapable of continuing the fight. But the six-winged blazing seraph ultimately failed to kill him.

The battle lasted nearly five hours. The Federation side held their ground by exhausting magic, purifying with holy light, and with knights and warriors resisting head-on.

Both sides had just made preliminary contact. However, the wraith legion suffered countless casualties, but the majority of wraith energy was recovered, resulting in comparatively minimal losses. Yet, for the humans, death was irreversible. More than five hundred warriors and knights had lost their lives permanently.

It wasn’t until noon, under the strong sunlight and intimidating luminous magic from the priests, that the wraith legion slowly retreated, ending their offensive for the day.
