Chapter 1104: Chapter 1104
"Who could have done this? Find out, and make it clear." The priest responsible for these matters had an awful complexion, secretly assassinating their upper class right under his watch. This was tantamount to utter disrespect.
Merely humans, since when did they have such audacity?
The one who died was no ordinary person, but a tier-five expert, and to die right under their noses at that. The faction behind him would surely demand an explanation, and many present were in trouble.
However, it wasn’t long before another loud call echoed through the sky. An arrow suddenly descended from the heavens, tearing through the clouds, aiming right at Kaya, the priest in the center.
Kaya, sensing imminent danger, raised the magic staff in his hand without a second thought. The ground’s quicksand instantly enveloped him, turning a blood red color, just like cinnabar, strikingly crimson.
The arrow struck the quicksand shield, and a massive explosion resonated, a violent gust felt by everyone nearby.
The quicksand shield was instantly blown apart, and at the same time, the arrow was shattered. Kaya grunted, his arm feeling somewhat numb. The enemy’s attack was too powerful; his defense had almost failed to hold.
It wasn’t a defense prepared over a long period, but the defensive magic he cast casually was also very strong.
"No, the attack didn’t come from inside the camp, be wary of the outside," Kaya scoffed, shifting the attention of others. Now was not the time to reveal his weakness.
"Oh dear, he wasn’t injured, the leader’s strength is probably not much weaker than ours," Lin Yucha opened her eyes and said.
Du You immediately added, "Never mind their leader; kill the other priests first."
Priests hold a high status among the Sandpeople and are of symbolic importance. If many priests died, the enemy’s military morale would certainly suffer. Besides, priests have too many tricks; who knows what they might do.
Lin Yucha nodded, closed her eyes again, and another Brave Eagle’s Arrow flew out.
Moments later, an arrow fell from the sky, this time targeting a priest standing outside.
This priest sensed the danger as well and released his quicksand shield. However, his power was clearly far inferior to that of his chief; the arrow shattered the quicksand shield and pierced his chest. The Quicksand Priest seemed to want to make some move, but his whole body was already stiff because the injury inside was severe.
While not all his internal organs were turned to mush, the remaining power also reduced them to pieces.
Another tier-five was killed instantly, and now all the Sandpeople were on edge. Continuous attacks and deaths among the upper class—if this issue couldn’t be resolved, it would undoubtedly affect the entire army’s morale.
"I’ve seen it, the attack is coming from behind the humans’ defense line, from behind the mountain pass,"
In the sky, a Sand Sculpture Knight shouted, but as this arrow fell, another priest was killed instantly.
"Damn it, everyone get your defense spells ready." As Kaya issued the command, the priests hurriedly began preparing their defense spells. Many of the priests’ spells required time, but these spells were incredibly powerful.
Not much time had passed when another arrow flew in, targeting a priest again. Since the priests carried so many trifles, Lin Yucha, with his consciousness attached to the arrow, could easily distinguish them.
However, this time was different. This priest had already prepared his defense spell in advance. He was surrounded by what seemed to be a thin layer of wind, but when the arrow hit, it only managed to blast away much of the wind, and the arrow was actually deflected.
"The enemy’s attack is strong, but not strong enough to penetrate our well-prepared defenses. Prepare more potions for recovery."
Deploying such defense spells and resisting such powerful attacks put a great deal of pressure on the priests. Without restorative potions, they didn’t know how many times they could hold out.
Lin Yucha said helplessly, "Master, they are ready with defense spells. I’m afraid it will be very difficult to kill the priests with the spells they have prepared for a long time."
Regarding this, Du You was well-prepared, "Killing two is already good. Continue the attack, aim for the air force next, and seize air superiority. If the air force is hard to kill, then target the other fifth tier Quicksand soldiers."
While Lin Yucha was speaking, he didn’t stop his movements. As soon as Du You finished speaking, Lin Yucha closed his eyes and another arrow flew out. The cry of the Brave Eagle had almost become the source of the Sandpeople’s fear.
"Be careful, another attack is coming," shouted a Quicksand soldier in the air.
"Humans are truly intolerable. All forces attack, let’s exterminate them," Kaya no longer spoke of investigating. The enemy’s constant harassment and threats to their upper class were indeed detestable.
If they couldn’t resolve this, they would not only have trouble explaining to the other upper class but also find themselves in danger. If such attacks were continued, even Kaya himself might not always be able to resist. Regardless of the reason, Kaya decided not to wait any longer. This time, he was determined to completely eliminate the enemy.
Following Kaya’s command, the army started to move, and they didn’t bother to set up camp.
Just as the Quicksand soldier who had just warned others was speaking, he realized that this time the arrow was not heading towards the ground, but charging towards him. The Quicksand soldier’s expression changed, and he quickly moved his body.
At the same time, Dou Qi erupted from his body, forming a Quicksand shield. As a warrior without the long preparation time for magic defense like the Quicksand Priests, he could only rely on the Dou Qi shield. But for Lin Yucha’s long-range attack, unless one was above level 44, even a fifth tier Quicksand soldier would be instantly killed.
Sensing the immense danger, the Quicksand soldier swung his long knife, and Dou Qi burst out, slashing three times in rapid succession. This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✦𝓷𝓮𝓽
Then, to everyone’s surprise, the man actually jumped down. After three attacks, the arrow, now impeded, had a hard time catching up to the Quicksand soldier. Lin Yucha’s mind shifted, and the arrow continued forward, hitting the Sand Sculpture instead.
As part of the Sandpeople’s upper class, the mounts of Sand Sculpture Knights were not simple either, individual’s mount, which was a fifth tier Sand Sculpture. Although it had just reached the fifth tier, it was, after all, a fifth tier.
Magic Power burst from the Sand Sculpture, desperately trying to ward off the arrow, but it was still penetrated, hitting just below the neck.
The Sand Sculpture let out a miserable cry and spiraled down. The just-landed Quicksand soldier, ignoring his own battered state, rushed over in distress. His mount may not have died, but with such an injury, it could no longer participate in the upcoming battle.
