Chapter 525: 525
As soon as the Red Flame Battalion entered the shooting range of the crossbows, the wall of light appeared again . Arrows rained on them .
These arrows weren't very destructive . The thing was, they could be shot repeatedly . They would finally reach the battalion the same way an ant would bite an elephant to death .
Although the Red Flame Battalion was in the fire cloud of their formation, it didn't mean their defense was perfect .
The rain of arrows could tear the fire cloud apart in a few seconds . The Red Flame Battalion had to figure a way to avoid this .
The fire cloud transformed into wild flames, ignoring the rain of arrows .
The arrows were shot into the flames, but they were burnt down to ashes while travelling through the outer layer .
"No wonder . "
Zhao Wenhao finally realized what was going on . The Red Flame Battalion didn't need any help because they could destroy those arrows with merely the high temperature of the flames .
Since when had the Cooling Formation become so powerful? And after they'd lost so many men .
Anyway, the Red Flame Battalion came to the thickest of the wall of light smoothly, floating over the city .
The flames transformed again . This time, they transformed into a fierce beast that was spitting fire . Flames, almost like liquid, attacked the city .
The wall of light disappeared, and people heard tragic screams coming from the city .
At the same time, armored soldiers dashed out of the city . Ten-odd men charged forward at the same speed .
All of them were in the Reaching Heaven State . Of course, they had their tactical formation, too . Halfway there, a thirty-foot-high chariot charged down from the sky, leaving tracks behind it that took a long time to vanish .
The front of the chariot was covered with long and sharp spears .
It wasn't the only one . The same chariots appeared from other parts of the city, detouring towards the Red Flame Battalion .
"It's the Dragon Rebel Army's armed chariots!" Zhao Wenhao grew serious . He hadn't expected to encounter such strong attacks here .
The Red Flame Battalion was too busy stopping the crossbows to deal with the charge of the chariots, so he led the Bright Moon Troop to join the battle .
The Holy Arrow Battalion changed their formation into a drawn bow with three giant arrows, aiming at the three chariots closest to the Red Flame Battalion .
Then the giant arrows hit the chariots, but they weren't destroyed . The shooting only made them tumble in the sky .
The Red Flame Battalion hastened to get themselves out of there as soon as they had the chance . The Bright Moon Troop happened to have arrived, and they moved towards the chariots .
"The Bright Moon Troop!"
"Retreat!"
The Dragon Rebel Army was still the same . They didn't want to get stuck in the battle . Fighting back while retreating, they gave up the city on fire .
"Don't chase them!" Zhao Wenhao ordered . Although they were at an advantage, they couldn't forget about their task .
Some powerful-looking cannons were pushed out of the Bright Moon Troop . They aimed at the city and shot at it .
After a blare, the city walls collapsed first, followed by the other walls after . The whole city soon became ruins .
Jiang Chen wondered why they couldn't have used the cannons earlier, but he realized it was because of the range of the cannons .
He suddenly missed his Devastator, which was much more powerful than these weapons .
I'm guessing the army wouldn't allow me to spend too many resources on building things like that anyway .
Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders . In his current position, he could incur fatal consequences by doing things like that .
"This credit will be given to the Red Flame Battalion!"
After confirming the city had been completely destroyed, he said to the Red Flame Battalion and the Holy Arrow Battalion, "Thirty thousand war merit points for the Red Flame Battalion and 8,000 for the Holy Arrow Battalion . "
It was fair enough to convince people .
The Holy Arrow Battalion didn't have a second opinion . If the Red Flame Battalion hadn't destroyed the crossbows, things wouldn't have been as easy for them .
The soldiers of the Red Flame Battalion were all very excited . Most of them had no idea how it had happened, but they enjoyed the result .
"We exerted only half of the formation's power?" Qiu Yan said in surprise after experiencing the power of the tactical formation for the first time .
