Chapter 1110: Chapter 1110

Without his Summoned Beast, the severely injured Kaya, regardless of his own strength, no longer had the power to keep fighting. Finally, Du You seized the opportunity, and his Soul Pierce hit Kaya squarely in the face.

Although a red glow negated some of its power, Kaya still clutched his head and screamed in agony.

Then Du You released a Dark Fire Dragon to entangle his opponent; while holding Kaya in place, the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon charged for three seconds before firing, hitting Kaya for the first time. Under the terrifying destructive power of the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon, Kaya’s battered Defensive Barrier shattered. Then a large hole appeared in the center of his chest as the dark energy rapidly spread.

Kaya looked around, the battlefield was almost settled, and he finally closed his eyes in regret.

Before he even fell to the ground, Kaya’s entire body was eroded by the dark power, ultimately becoming part of the darkness.

"Don’t let him escape," Du You suddenly shouted. His Summoned Beasts surged forward, and with the Death Scorpion restrained, the enemy’s Death Scorpion was left behind and could no longer flee.

The desperate Death Scorpion launched a Death Raid, instantly piercing the largest of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. Its terrifying poison proved too much even for the Dried Corpse, which died on the spot and then revived.

One of his own Summoned Beasts had finally died once on this battlefield.

Looking around, as the battle was nearly over, Du You waved his hand, leading his Summoned Beasts to assist, starting a frenzied hunt for the fifth-tier Sandpeople. Meanwhile, the Quicksand Empire’s army completely collapsed.

Du You focused on the fifth-tier Sandpeople, not letting a single one escape. However, the large number of soldiers was different; they ran everywhere, and after distancing from the battlefield, many Sandpeople simply burrowed into the sand, impossible to capture completely. Du You could only watch as the skeletons and Demon Extermination Spirits gave chase.

Soon the main battle concluded, and Du You, along with the two sisters, came to a halt. Other soldiers took care of cleaning up the battlefield.

"Has the casualty count come out?" Du You asked Luo Jia, who hurried over. Thanks to efficient logistics, the counting was very fast and did not take much time.

Luo Jia wore a smile on his face: "Haha, yes it has, we have truly triumphed. Our fifth-tier soldiers lost a total of thirty-two, with only one being a Fire Lizard Cavalry member, the rest were Lava Warriors. The enemy lost over three hundred, including their leader, such a special existence."

Du You furrowed his brows, surprised at such heavy losses despite their overwhelming advantage.

"Why did we lose so many? Didn’t we have an absolute advantage?" Lin Yushi asked, puzzled. Near the end of the fight, Lin Yushi had left for the front, creating numerous Demon Extermination Spirits.

Luo Jia replied with a bitter smile, "It was the Sandpeople’s desperation at the end. These Sandpeople are incredibly strong when fighting for their lives. Although our Lava Warriors are powerful, their mobility is not very good."

Du You nodded, aware of this weakness of the Lava Warriors early on. While their defenses were strong, the Lava Armor also burdened them significantly. In terms of speed, Lava Warriors were amongst the slower ones at their level. Quicksand soldiers might be countered, but they were quicker than their counterparts at the same level.

If the Quicksand soldiers burst out with their desperate skills, even the Lava Warriors would find it difficult to dodge.

Not to mention, there were those priests, who knows what methods they possess. What took Du You by surprise was that a Fire Lizard Cavalry had actually died; Fire Lizard Cavalry are known for their great speed.

After making inquiries, Du You learned that the unfortunate soldier had been controlled by several desperate Quicksand Priests who joined forces to cast their spell. It was then that the bursting Quicksand soldiers killed him, and several of them even ganged up to do so. The deceased Fire Lizard Cavalry, including his mount, had become fragments, the kind whose body couldn’t be pieced together. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝔫𝔢𝔱

"What about other areas?" Du You asked, frowning.

"We are still tallying the other areas. A large part of the Sandpeople were wiped out on the spot. It’s unlikely that many high-tier warriors of tier four and tier three escaped, as they were our prime targets for elimination."

"I can vouch for that," Lin Yushi declared loudly. During the final phase of the battle, Lin Yushi deliberately chose to fight these tier four and tier three enemies, because doing so would yield more Demon Extermination Spirits.

Du You nodded, not too concerned. Following that, Du You suddenly received congratulations from the Divine Flame Empire. It turned out they were already aware that the battle on his side had ended.

Du You had no idea when they had managed to infiltrate spies into their midst, probably among those logistical soldiers from outside. The information they provided was remarkably timely. But according to the intelligence they sent, his side was the first to conclude the battle.

The battlefields of the other major powers showed the Sandpeople being very cautious, setting up camp opposite them, probably intending a war of attrition.

It was only his side that, thanks to Du You’s decisive order for Lin Yucha to launch long-range attacks, attracted the enemies over. Coupled with the enemies’ carelessness and the success of his own traps that blew up a wave of them, what followed was much easier.

As a result, of the five hundred tier-five soldiers that Du You brought, only two hundred were exposed. The strength of the rest remained unknown to everyone else.

"This is truly a cause for celebration, master. Our reputation is now very high," Lin Yucha said.

With a smile, Du You responded, "I didn’t expect that we would be the first to finish either. But given the subsequent developments, it’s unlikely that anyone will continue to attack us here. Even the Quicksand Empire can’t possibly send high-tier soldiers endlessly. Otherwise, the Empire itself would become unstable."

Du You surveyed the surrounding mountain passes; because of the battle, the gaps around the mountain pass had widened by two-thirds. This wasn’t intentional, but rather the aftermath of the tier-five warriors’ combat. Du You didn’t know how much of the mountain range underground had been damaged. But looking at this place, maybe a city could be built here in the future.

A city specifically designed for combat. After this incident, Du You came to deeply recognize the threat of the Quicksand Empire. They must be blocked inside the desert, they absolutely must not be allowed out.

Once these people come out, the consequences would be very serious. Probably after this time, not just him, but the other great empires would likely share the same sentiment.

Half a day later, the pursuit teams gradually returned to this place, and the bodies were collected. Next up were the various post-battle affairs. Similarly, Du You, the king, needed to reward merit.
