I want to be the Grand Duke of the Abyss

Chapter 138 Beheading
Near noon.

The clouds seemed to be burning, giving the solemn battlefield a layer of bright yellow color.

On the earth, huge war legions were lined up quietly.

Loki's men looked up from time to time to glance at the Giant Corps opposite, with doubts, ridicule and other emotions constantly showing in their eyes.

They didn't understand that even though they already had crossbows and other weapons that could defeat giants, why did Uso insist on sending them out?
Collins would not be kind enough to explain the reasons to his enemies.

What happened in the past few years has overturned his world view. Every time he recalls the experience after meeting that crown prince, it feels like a dream.

"The attack on the Giant Corps caused me to be embarrassed in front of Your Majesty. Now it's your turn to repay the debt!"

Collins gritted his teeth.

This was the first time since he accepted the Clay Puppet Army that there had been such a huge defeat, and how could he not be angry about it.

As time went by, the Giant Corps gradually entered the range of the ballistae.The Loki army's ballista formation was bustling with activity, and they quickly pushed out the planet's most high-end technological weapons.

"coming!"

Collins raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waved his right hand back. Dozens of soldiers each held scrolls and ran forward on horseback.

Marshal Ironwood looked at this scene in the distance and laughed out loud.

"Look, Uso's 'warriors' are coming to the battle to protect their giant!"

"Hahaha~"

When several legion commanders around him saw this, they laughed loudly and catered to him. At first glance, they all showed high emotional intelligence in the workplace.

After experiencing the last successful attack, everyone no longer has any fear of the rumored invincible giant army. At this moment, everyone is relaxed and looks like they are in control of victory or defeat.

Marshal Ironwood's eyes flashed fiercely, and he was immediately ready to order an attack.

But the next moment, the cavalry sent by Uso's side had already passed the Giant Corps and suddenly raised the strange object in their hands towards them.

As the scrolls were torn apart, the entire sky was suddenly filled with fiery breath.

Uso's cavalry only felt that the void between them and the Rocky Ballista Corps seemed to have turned into a channel of light, with countless powerful magic waves leaping rapidly in it.

In just the blink of an eye, the sky above the entire ballista phalanx turned red, and streaks of light flew out, transforming into magical radiance. It was the violent fire spell attack - [Doomsday Flame]!
Violent explosions and raging flames appeared in the void at the same time, and the fiery fire storm fell, catching Loki's side by surprise.

Looking at the phalanx where the ballistas were located, it instantly turned into a sea of ​​​​fire, and the heat wave soared into the sky. For a moment, it seemed to overshadow the scorching sun hanging high in the sky.

Although the crossbow machine was partially covered with iron sheets, it still could not withstand the flames condensed by this extraordinary power.In the eyes of everyone, the ballistas turned directly into blazing fireballs, and the crackling sound of burning wood continued.

"what--"

"Help--"

The pitiful screams of Loki's soldiers only appeared for a moment, and were immediately engulfed by the blazing fire and became silent again.Under the constantly shaking firelight, the entire phalanx of ballistae seemed to have turned into a cannibalistic purgatory, filled with the aura of destruction.

Loki's generals looked horrified and hurriedly called for soldiers to put out the fire. The entire rear army formation suddenly became chaotic, and people were knocked to the ground from time to time.

Marshal Tiemu looked shocked and angry, and felt panic in his heart.what happened?

Even though it is fireproof, it still gets ignited?

This was the first time that the Loki Empire encountered a spell attack on the battlefield.

The ballista was Loki's greatest reliance, and now it was mysteriously burned down by the enemy. Ironwood immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

As early as the moment when the fire broke out, Collins and Earl Locke had already ordered the cavalry to attack quickly.While Loki's army was busy putting out fires and rescuing the ballista, they also had to prepare for Uso's surprise attack.

"Order all legions not to get too entangled with the enemy and retreat immediately! Retreat!"

Marshal Ironwood hurriedly gave orders to the legion commanders around him.

But a group of knights who had just set the fire took out another scroll and tore it open.Rows of thick white bones rose abruptly from behind Loki's army, directly cutting off the army's retreat.

Several soldiers who couldn't brake quickly hit the bones with their heads, causing stars to pop out in front of their eyes.

With the impact of this road blockage, the Uso cavalry and puppet regiments in the rear finally caught up and engaged the Loki army in the rear in close combat.

Without the threat of the ballista, the puppet corps was still the same invincible puppet corps. With both fists waving, all the surrounding enemies were thrown away and smashed away.Those who had no time to dodge were directly blown into pieces by the huge and powerful fist.

Marshal Ironwood knew that he could never be dragged here and allowed to be ravaged by the enemy, so he kept ordering his soldiers to retreat loudly.At the same time, he did not forget to send a small group of elite troops to stop the Uso cavalry who was the first to catch up, and to deal with them to cover the retreat of the army.

The battle instantly became one-sided. The puppets roaming the land continued to bring death, and the mobile cavalry also consumed the Loki cavalry who had no intention of fighting.

Due to the chaotic situation on the battlefield, it took a long time for Marshal Ironwood's instructions to be fed back to the entire army. As a result, the army missed the best opportunity. The entire Loki's military formation showed signs of becoming a ball of scattered sand, resulting in heavy losses.

If the combat qualities accumulated in daily life were not still there, and the middle and lower-level officers were working hard to control the situation, it would probably turn into another massacre.

In this situation, many Lokis were crying and shouting, scurrying around the bones blocking the road and running towards their own city.

Defeat like a mountain!
The atmosphere in the magnificent hall was eerily quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.

Bastian of the Loki Empire held his chin and patiently listened to Marshal Ironwood's report.Looking at the slightly messy look of the other party, Bastian felt really angry and funny.

"Why, I, Loki, the mighty Marshal of the Southern Corps, Tiemu, was so disgraced by an Uso Kingdom?"

Tiemu couldn't help but look embarrassed when he heard Bastian's slightly teasing words.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, I didn't know that the other party actually had this kind of magic item, so...so..."

"Okay, it's just a matter of a few ballistas. Your attack this time will not be fruitless. At least, the person opposite is probably as we guessed. It is indeed a visitor from outside the world, otherwise the Uso Kingdom will definitely not be able to take out So many magic props are coming out to squander.”

"What do you think?"

Bastian knocked on the table and told several important officials in the room.

"Your Majesty, I suggest."

"Beheading!"
