In the wee hours of the morning, the earth began to shake once again. The Orcs 'battle hymns rang out once more. The city walls were quickly deployed, and Fire Dance and the others patiently waited for an opportunity.
The orcs rushed to the city wall in teams. This time, there were more than 30,000 troops attacking the city. They were arranged in four square formations and pressed down not far from the city wall.
The horn sounded, and the second attack began.
Huo Wu was just about to put her finger to her mouth when a pair of large hands pulled her from the side. Feng Xingtian shook his head at her, and Huo Wu could only put her finger down.
The signal inside the pass rose, and Fire Dance gave the order. A thousand cavalrymen formed a wedge-shaped formation and rushed towards the back of the orcs.
Feng Xingtian, Huo Wu, and the cavalry battalion leader were in the front. Feng Xingtian had already untied the warsong on his back.
The Beastmen archers were all lined up in front. For a moment, they did not realize that there was an army behind them.
When they were a few dozen meters away, the cavalrymen shot out the short crossbows on their arms. The short crossbows displayed great power in close combat. No matter how thick the skin of the orc soldiers was, the short crossbows could still penetrate their bodies.
The orcs hurriedly turned around and set up a defensive formation. The powerful bear soldiers raised their spears and lined up at the front. The archers also turned around and fired a rain of arrows. However, the soldiers on the city wall did not let this opportunity go. In an instant, a large number of orcs at the front fell.
Feng Xingtian was the first to rush to the front of the orc formation. He waved his warsong high, and the head of an orc soldier fell to the ground.
The triangular cavalry formation was like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of the orcs. Feng Xingtian and the other two at the front were unstoppable. Every time Warsong swept across, two or three orcs would lose their lives.
Fire Dance's Raging Flames emitted a faint red glow, slicing through all the weapons blocking her way. She then directly sliced through the enemy's body. The two of them cooperated perfectly, forming a death zone.
Long Qingying was watching them from above. The cavalrymen had already rushed into the center of the square formation at the city gate. When they were at the edge of the square formation, Long Qingying gave the order to half open the city gate.
The orcs 'follow-up troops had already arrived. If they were a little later, Feng Xingtian and the others would have been surrounded.
When Feng Xingtian and the others rushed in, they found that there were still more than a hundred people trapped in the middle of the Beastmen. The casualties had already begun. The cavalry's combat power was at the moment he charged in. If they were to fall into a human wave tactic, it would be time for them to die.
Feng Xingtian was the first to turn his horse around. The captain of the cavalry battalion behind him was stunned for a moment before he could only turn around as well. Meanwhile, Huo Wu nervously followed Feng Xingtian.
"For our brothers, kill!" Feng Xingtian roared loudly, his voice drowning out the roars of the battle.
The cavalrymen who were surrounded by despair heard this, and their hearts were filled with excitement.
"Nonsense!" Long Qingying shouted angrily. They would have to lose at least three hundred people to save those one hundred people.
The Grim Reaper descended on the Beastmen's heads again. Feng Xingtian and the others rushed in to meet up with the people inside before rushing towards the city gate again.
However, the number of Orcs was increasing. The Orcs who rushed over from the three square formations on the side began to try to rush into the half-open city gate. The situation was getting more and more dangerous, and the reinforcements from the Orc camp were not far behind.
Feng Xingtian and Fire Dance's eyes were bloodshot from killing. Their bodies and horses were covered in blood. Just as they were about to break out of the encirclement, Fire Dance felt her body sink. Then, her warhorse whined and fell to the ground. In the chaos, the Orcs in front of her cut off the horse's legs.
The Orc beside Fire Dance seized the opportunity and slashed at her, who was still falling to the ground. Fire Dance, who couldn't react in time, could only close her eyes. However, she suddenly heard an angry roar. When she opened her eyes again, she was already in Feng Xingtian's arms.
Feng Xingtian raised his warsong and formed an encirclement, firmly guarding the two of them. After a period of delay, the other cavalrymen on horseback had already rushed to the city gate.
"Those who turn back will be punished by military law!"
" Let's go!" the battalion leader shouted, forcing the cavalrymen who wanted to turn back and charge into the city gate. Long Qingying had ordered them to close the gate immediately, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
Only Feng Xingtian and Fire Dance were left in the encirclement. The rest of the cavalrymen who had fallen off their horses were quickly chopped into meat paste by the charging Orcs.
"General Yang, gather the heavy cavalry immediately!”Long Qingying turned around, but Yang Chong didn't.
"Long Shuai!" Yang Chong knelt on the ground. At this moment, his duty was to prevent the commander from acting on his emotions at the critical moment.
"General Long, now is not the time to act on impulse!”Huang Ming was finally satisfied. He saw that Long Qingying also panicked sometimes.
Long Qingying closed her eyes for a while. When she opened her eyes again, her face was expressionless." General Yang, close the city gate, release the ropes, and defend the city steadily."”She stood in front again, looking bitterly at the two people fighting below." Xiao Wu, it's only for you. This is the first time I've done this in my life. You can't die."”
The encirclement was getting smaller and smaller. The orcs who had suffered a huge loss swore to destroy the two people in front of them.
Huo Wu tightly leaned against Feng Xingtian. With Feng Xingtian around, she was not afraid. She knew that this mountain-like man behind her would protect her even if he died.
Huo Wu felt her chest heat up. She could feel the armor on her chest being cut open. Following that, her arm was heavily slashed. She suddenly wanted to give up. She had no regrets even if she died together with Feng Xingtian.
"Earth Sovereign! I am Tyrant!"
All the orcs around him felt their hearts pounding. Even Long Qingying and the others on the city wall heard the roar clearly.
Feng Xingtian spat out a mouthful of blood. He pulled out the dagger from his waist with his left hand and stabbed it into his chest. The surrounding Beastmen were in disbelief when they saw his action.
"No!" When Fire Dance turned around and saw this scene, she screamed in pain.
At this moment, just like that night, Feng Xingtian's hair began to turn blood red, and his entire body expanded by a size. He was now more than two meters tall, and his clothes were torn apart. His naked chest was covered in wounds.
" Berserker Transformation?!" Long Qingying cried out from above.
Huang Ming was even more shocked. The Berserker Transformation was a unique ability of the Beastmen. Using blood as a medium, it could stimulate the endless power in the body. However, this also came with a heavy price. After a short transformation, a Berserker would either become an idiot after recovery, or their vitality would be quickly exhausted. Therefore, this was a move that the Beastmen used to die together with their opponents.
Feng Xingtian did not give them any time to be stunned. He picked up Fire Dance with his left hand and began his bloody path of slaughter. The Beastmen behind him could not keep up with his speed at all.
Feng Xingtian directly waved his saber, chopping down and lifting up again. Every time he attacked, he would cut off the bodies of two orcs. This bloody path was gradually being opened up.
Warsong still did not have a single drop of blood on it. In the end, the orcs in front simply gave up on resisting. Feng Xingtian quickly killed his way to the side of the rope.
Feng Xingtian shot forward and sent Huo Wu up. He then grabbed the rope with his left hand, and the few people on the wall pulled her up.
The whistling rain of arrows rang in his ears. When he was about to reach the top of the city wall, Feng Xingtian's figure paused. His red hair faded, and a sense of powerlessness enveloped him. A sharp pain came from his back. He used his last bit of strength to push Huo Wu up. Just as he was about to touch the outstretched hand, Feng Xingtian's vision turned black, and he fell into endless darkness.
"Feng Xingtian!"
Huo Wu turned around and screamed as she was about to jump down. A few soldiers beside her hurriedly held her back, dragging her behind them. A wave of dizziness and despair assaulted Huo Wu. Coupled with the serious injuries on her body, she also fainted.
The bugle horn sounded, and the orcs began to retreat in an orderly manner. This time, they had lost nearly 4,000 people just from the cavalry charge.
On the city wall, Long Qingying and the others watched the orc lift Feng Xingtian's reckless body. Her body swayed for a while, but soon stabilized.
Two lion soldiers walked into the commander's tent.
"Banguta, we captured a special human soldier on the battlefield.”
In the language of the beasts, Bangu Pagoda meant general.
"Why didn't you kill him on the spot?" Head Ying didn't even lift his head. He was 1.90 meters tall and exuded the characteristics of a lion. He had golden hair and his exposed arms were covered with brown fur.
"He can transform into a Berserker."
"Oh? Could it be that we have a traitor?"
"We're not sure yet. He's currently in a coma. How should we deal with Bangu?”
"Lock him up first and wait for him to wake up.”Ying Long was a little surprised.
The Mad Beast Clan was a special existence among the Beastmen. Although they didn't have the chance to ascend to the throne due to their small numbers, their warriors were the bravest among the Beastmen. In every army, there was a small group of Mad Beastmen, who usually acted as the guards of the main commander.
"Feng Xingtian, you said you wouldn't abandon Wu 'er, don't…"
Huo Wu kept calling Feng Xingtian's name. She was seriously wounded. The slash on her chest almost cut her open. Even if she could heal it, it would leave a long scar. It was fatal for a woman. Long Qingying really didn't know what she would tell her when she woke up.
Long Qingying was confused. Why did Wind Travelling Sky transform into an orc? This was bad news for the Clear Shadow Legion. Everyone knew Fire Dance's identity, but Wind Travelling Sky's blank past made them suspicious. Huang Ming insisted that he was a spy planted by the orcs in the empire. Otherwise, how could he grow so tall? There were so many human-beast hybrids, but none of them were as tall as him.
"Xiao Wu, you're awake."
Huo Wu moved and saw Long Qingying standing beside her." Qingying, you shouldn't suspect Feng Xingtian. I know him."”
Long Qingying was surprised by Huo Wu's words. She was much more sensitive than Huo Wu.
"How can that be? I don't believe you. It's fine as long as you wake up. Have a good rest.”Long Qingying couldn't find any words to comfort her.
Huo Wu said nothing more, silently closing her eyes.
"Xiao Wu, according to the situation during the day, he should be fine. Otherwise, the beastmen wouldn't have carried him away. You know, the beastmen never keep prisoners.”
"He will be fine." A tear slid down Huo Wu's cheek.
In Huang Ming's tent.
" Your Highness, we should take this opportunity to question Long Qingying. Why did she send an orc spy to the army? No wonder he never came out of seclusion to face the enemy.……”Zheng Guang whispered to Huang Ming.
" You can't say that. That kid is a troublemaker. He's not important. Long Qingying, oh, Long Qingying, I want to see how I can defeat the orcs without your army."”Huang Ming played with the sword in his hand and paused for a moment before saying,""However, that little girl today is quite beautiful. Looking at her, could she be a couple with that kid?”
" Yeah, the Clear Shadow Legion is full of beauties. The female captain is called Huo Wu. She's the prettiest girl in the Clear Shadow Legion, second only to Long Qingying. She's arrogant and cold. Although she doesn't have a high position, everyone knows that Long Qingying is trying to nurture her. I heard that the kid from this morning has already won her heart."”Zheng Guang roughly understood what Huang Ming meant. The woman that he had taken a fancy to had yet to be in his hands.
"What a pity."
Huang Ming called it a pity, but as a subordinate, Zheng Guang naturally understood the King's subtle intentions.
"Brother, live well." In the darkness, Feng Xingtian walked alone. A petite figure faintly appeared in front of him.
"Brother, come, smile. You must smile every day in the future.”Another gentle figure caressed Feng Xingtian.
"Feng Xingtian, if you don't come back and marry me, I will hate you for the rest of my life.”Huo Wu's sorrowful face appeared in front of him again.
Feng Xingtian grabbed forward with both hands, but the illusion dissipated in all directions, leaving Feng Xingtian alone in the darkness.
The pain tore his soul apart, causing his head to split in half. His memories suddenly returned to the battlefield, the endless beastmen, the desperate decision, the unconscious killing, and finally the darkness.
Just like that, he woke up and fainted again. His split head finally closed up. Feng Xingtian opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar environment.
He subconsciously touched his chest. The dagger on his body had disappeared, and a warm energy had gathered in his chest. He looked around and realized that he was in a simple prison cell.
"F * ck, he's a fucking captive.”After thinking for a moment, Feng Xingtian understood that he had been captured by the orcs.
He moved his limbs. His body was limp and powerless. When he tried to stand up, the cell door opened.
A lion soldier walked in. When he saw that he had woken up, he mumbled a long string of beast language.
"Brother Beast, why don't you consider my race?”Feng Xingtian said to him.
Seeing him like this, the orc walked out again.
Not long after, Feng Xingtian was escorted into a tent by two soldiers.
Ying Long looked at this human soldier who was taller than him and began to be confused. However, he did not think and kicked Feng Xingtian.
Feng Xingtian, who was caught off guard, suffered a lot from this kick. He stood up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. The two orcs immediately came up and held him down.
Ying Long raised his leg and kicked Feng Xingtian's face without saying a word. This time, Feng Xingtian's nose bloomed, and countless stars began to flash in front of his eyes.
"Dead or alive?" Yinglong finally spoke, and it was in human language. However, the greatsword was already in front of Feng Xingtian's eyes.
"How can I not live? General Ying Long." Feng Xingtian smiled awkwardly, but he spoke in the beast language.
"The Wild Beast Clan has indeed produced a scum like you.”Ying Long was stunned for a moment when he heard Feng Xingtian's beast language, but he quickly recovered.
Feng Xingtian closed his eyes, but his mind began to spin rapidly. He had never wanted to live as badly as he did now, because he was no longer alone. He had a responsibility to live. Just now, he saw the decorations in the tent and Ying Long's temperament, and he made up his mind to take a gamble. Judging from his reaction, it was indeed Ying Long, the commander-in-chief this time. Moreover, he spoke in the beast language, so he was not afraid that Ying Long would not be suspicious.
"Give me a reason to live.”Ying Long's sword thrust forward two more times, almost stabbing into Feng Xingtian's eyes.
"Bangu, please think of a reason to let me go.”Feng Xingtian's expression became more and more unfathomable.
Ying Long was someone who naturally understood what he meant. This was what he had originally been worried about. He ordered the people around him to retreat, leaving only the two of them in the tent.
"Tell me your identity." Ying Long withdrew his sword and walked to the table. He leaned against Feng Xingtian and placed his sword beside him.
Feng Xingtian was amused. As expected, the beastmen were no match for Long Qingying. If Long Qingying was here, she wouldn't have come up with such an inferior trick. Besides, with his current ability, it would be more difficult than ascending to the sky to ambush Ying Long, who was known as the second strongest warrior of the beastmen.
"I think you already knew who I was when the general sent the shaman to heal my fatal wound. The general is right. Have you seen a traitor orc?”
Feng Xingtian decided to take another gamble. He didn't believe that his body could heal itself. There could only be one result, and that was that the Healing Magicians here had healed his wounds. As for the reason why they had done so, Feng Xingtian had already guessed it pretty well. In addition, although the three races often traded during peaceful times, once war broke out, none of the Beastmen betrayed the humans. The Beastmen who were captured in the war were either killed and locked up or sold as slaves.
