20 Battlefield

*Xe Zhoutian PoV*

*BOOM* *BOOM*

Slashing more and more of the Fortyhtigends, I make a quick gaze into my surrounding and found out that captain Zelamarth are trying to regroup the mercenaries and then placing them together to watch each other backs. With the mercenaries and Ofergan warriors uniting together in one place, our momentum to breaking through the Fortyhtigends mobs is unstoppable.

Until finally, a hundred of Fortyhtigends showing up, but each of them is six times bigger than those of their kind. The elites of the Fortyhtigends armies, the Fortyhtigend champions. And all of them would be at least Grade C combatants, according to the intelligence I've learned so far.

*Roooaarr*

Giving out war cries, each of the Fortyhtigends champions is wearing armors made of black stone in their upper body and weapons made of black stone as well in their hands.

*Click*

A black ball as big as a fist was thrown out to the middle the champions group. After a few seconds later, a blast that can reduced everything in fifteen meters radius is happening.

*BOOOOM!*

Taking out a chunk in champions ranks, I turned my head to see who toss out such a powerful weapon, and in my line of sight is the man in armor that's all this time been shooting the Fortyhtigends.

Noticing my gaze as that person looking back at me, I nod my head as a sign of well done and that person nod his head too.

That person immediately goes to a draconian mercenary that had a hand cannon in his hands and back him up. The two combatants then keep shootings any Fortyhtigends that's trying to overwhelm the group from every sides possible.

"Qiyuan, make another two copies of me." I mumbled as I keep using blood ignition and phantom steps in tandems to slashing off the enemies.

'Three minutes and my Qi reserve would be dried up.' Answered Qiyuan as another two more copies of me emerged behind me. Nodding to say i understand, I make the newly fresh made copies to back up the mercenaries from behind while my real self will go to the most front of the formation, making myself one of vanguard combatants that's in charge to break through this mobs.

"Who are you?" said a troll race mercenary while he's still shooting energy cannon in his arm to the front, he size me up quickly and noticed the CGA word in my black overcoat, but there's wings in it, right beside the C word and the A word "A service member from the headquarter? Are you here for the service mission?"

Giving him a nod, I dash right to the enemies in front of him and send out wind blades of Qi. And then dozens of ice arrows was being shouted right after I give out the wind blades. Following right behind me is my first double who still holding everwinter and back me up from behind.

Seeing they got another two more helpers that's me and my double, the mercenaries vanguard morale is boosted a little as we keep pushing on to break through the circlement. Fires, ices, winds, energy beams, and many more weapons is being used to push forward until a giant monster appeared from the sky and falls directly in front of us to block us.

"That's a Fortyhtigend in warchief rank! Above that of champions and their grade is at least that of B and more." One mercenary alerted the group as more and more of the warchief ranks is falling from the sky.

Right after that, the warchief rank in that's falling first before its companions, now is charging at us. Without be able to reach in time, the giant swung its mace to me and knock me away.

*Cough**Cough*

Hitting the mercenaries behind me, my throat filled with blood as I coughed. Even though I had covered my body with Qi, it's not strong enough to stop even half of the giant attack. Shit.. Am I getting taken down in one hit?

"You fucker…" mumbling in rage, the corner of my lips flowing with blood as I make the Qi in my dantian to overflow Into me and I raise my might higher than what my rank should be.

Dantian core pinnacle realm

Spiritual sea intermediate realm

Spiritual sea pinnacle realm

Aurora revolving intermediate realm

Aurora revolving pinnacle realm

Nascent soul primary realm

Hitting nascent soul primary stage, I can't afford to raise more as I know it would be unwise to be a vegetable in the middle of battlefield. Pupils shrinking, I take a stance for battle technique: Phantasm sword art- Ten of thousands slaying blades.

In a blink of an eyes, I slashed through every warchief rank giants and split them in half. Dozens of giants become showers of blood at the same time I had passed through them.

'What are you doing, Zhoutian! You wasted a lot of Qi that can last you for a month!' reprimand Qiyuan immediately as he see I just used a high rank battle technique.

Gritting my teeth, I turn a deaf ears to Qiyuan remark and dash into the mobs, venting the anger from having to spend so many Qi in this battle. Following my lead, the mercenaries awe to me is only for short while as they realize they are still in war ground and had to back me up.

"A little more! We can break through them!" the troll that had been leading the groups all this time is trying to rise the morale. Looking around, I can see that we almost did it. We can get out from this mobs and retreat.

*ROOOAAR*

Gazing my eyes above, the gigantic creature that bring the Fortyhtigends armies is coming again. And this time, there's two of them.

Oh hell…. This sure going to be a long battle…
