Chapter 744: Victory in the First Battle (2)
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
He clenched his fists tightly, squeezing out the sentence from between his teeth.
The demon deputy officer beside him remained silent as a clam, afraid to say anything more, lest he become the outlet for his anger.
His eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
The heroes of this territory, their combat power was unexpectedly strong.
Of course, before the war began, they had investigated the number of heroes in this territory, which was why they dispatched dozens of demon heroes at once, to engage the high-level forces of the area.
However, these heroes of the Ocean Crown were simply terrifying!
That feathered hero, a legacy-tier Featherfolk, could actually hold her own against two legacy-tier demon heroes and a rare-tier demon hero!
In their records, during the Divine War tens of thousands of years ago, the heroes of the Featherfolk tribe could at most contend with a hero of the same tier!
When did the Featherfolk tribe become so formidable!?
The Naga Warrior with wings was even more terrifying to the demons. Its huge claws slaughtered their hero units like cutting vegetables, whether rare-tier or legacy-tier, they were no match.
Even legendary-tier demons were not its match, being tossed around like a ball. It was such a pitiful sight.
For the first time, the demon deputy officer felt that something was amiss. The enemies of the main world seemed not as weak as they had imagined…
Soon, the casualties from this attack were tallied.
A total of more than eighty thousand demon soldiers were killed or injured, half of which were fifth-tier units. Five thousand members of six sixth-tier units were also taken advantage of by the enemy commander and wiped out.
In addition, a total of sixty-eight demon heroes fell, nine of which were legacytier, and the rest were either seriously injured or maimed, in a very sorry state.
With the loss of this wave of high-level forces, the vanguard legion now only had two to three dozen scattered hero units left, and the demon army had just over three hundred thousand troops left, almost forty percent of its strength depleted.
According to the current reconnaissance of the enemy’s forces, it was now very difficult to shake the enemy’s defenses with the current strength.
Amidst the shock and anger, Yasen also felt somewhat disheartened.
He remembered how, just a few days ago, he had confidently told his father that this vanguard legion alone could conquer these islands, but in just four days, that goal had turned into nothing but a mirage.
The memory of him receiving the mission proudly in front of numerous demon lords and commanders just a few days ago, contrasted sharply with the current sight of him hurriedly retreating in humiliation, creating a mix of shame and anger within Yasen.
No, this was definitely not his fault!
At some point, this vanguard legion was not strong enough to fully unleash its capabilities!
The intelligence given to him was also incorrect, how could this Lord of Glory possibly possess so many powerful hero units, he had seen it himself, there were not only sea tribes and Featherfolk, but even a Siren!
With such a rigorous defense system and so many formidable enemies, it was quite normal for this vanguard legion to encounter such setbacks.
After some comforting words, Yasen felt much better and became even more convinced that this was not his fault, at least not primarily!
The demon deputy officer looked at Yasen’s face twisting and changing like a shape-s.h.i.+fter, startled, thinking something had happened, and quickly asked, “Lord Yasen, are you alright?”
Yasen’s face returned to calmness, but his expression darkened, and he said in
a deep voice, “Retreat.”
“Huh?”
“I said retreat, didn’t you understand?”
The demon deputy officer hastily replied, “Yes, I’ll have them retreat
immediately.”
As he was about to leave, Yasen called him back.
“Wait, after the retreat and gathering with the main forces, you must publicly declare that the reason for our attack failure was due to incorrect intelligence. There’s no way this Lord of Glory could possess so many powerful heroes and armies.
Elves, sea tribes, and dragons have secretly supported this Lord of Glory. It’s because of the lack of this kind of intelligence that we were caught off guard suddenly. Understand?”
The deputy officer wanted to say something, but seeing Yasen’s sinister gaze, he trembled all over and wisely kept his mouth shut.
“Yes!”
Although this was not entirely true, it was not entirely false either. Mixing truth and falsehood was enough to confuse.
Moreover, the deputy officer also knew that if he wanted to evade responsibility, he had to follow this plan. Otherwise, with such large casualties and defeat, Yasen, as the son of the Demon King, might only need to receive a mere punishment, but as his humble deputy officer, he might not escape death.
For the sake of his own life, he had to say so.
The news of the retreat of the remaining demon army of over three hundred thousand from the Stormy Sea couldn’t escape the vigilant eyes of the Ocean Crown army who had been scouting day and night, and this news quickly spread back.
Lord’s Castle, Council Chamber.
“The demons are retreating?”
Ji Chen, sitting at the head, couldn’t hide his surprise, but there was also a hint of expectation.
Although he knew that after several days of siege, the demon army, which had suffered heavy casualties, no longer posed a threat to the New Moon Islands, the fact that their commander could make such a decisive choice to withdraw also showed some courage.
He just didn’t know how he would be treated after losing two hundred thousand troops and dozens of senior forces when he returned.
He heard Yasen was the son of the Dreadlord Balzarna.
Since his father is the king, Yasen should have no worries.
As the vanguard demon legion gradually disappeared from the sea level and retreated southward, and as they exited the Stormy Sea, the first battle between the Ocean Crown and the demons ended with victory for the Ocean Crown.
The Ocean Crown was filled with excitement.
They had defeated those terrifying races from the depths of the abyss, which made the other races tremble in fear. Even though it was only one legion, it was enough to prove that these horned monsters were not invincible.
They still remembered how the heroes of the Ocean Crown easily killed the enemy demon heroes, and how the demon army found it difficult to approach the city walls under the bombardment of cannons.
This was enough to boost morale.
After a brief moment of joy, the Ocean Crown returned to a state of alertness.
Although this vanguard legion commanded by the son of the Dreadlord suffered heavy losses and retreated, far away, the Dreadlord commanded an even larger army. This army, with a size of up to five hundred thousand, was just the vanguard legion.
It was estimated that this army numbered up to a million. Although the number was only several times that of the vanguard legion, they were all demons. Under Balzarna’s command, there were no cannon fodder troops; all were elite troops.
Among them were countless powerful beings, and there were so many senior forces that they could launch a systematic attack.
More importantly, the Dreadlord Balzarna himself was among this army, and the burgeoning epic power was enough to weigh heavily on everyone s hearts. Although he had never been seen in person, various legends and records pa.s.sed down from the divine war tens of thousands of years ago gave some insight into his nature.
Evil, powerful, cunning, shameless, cruel…
These adjectives, which symbolize the dark side within the lawful camp, all seemed to apply to Balzarna, ill.u.s.trating the profound fear that the forces of order held for him.
But rumors said that the Dreadlord was not the same one from tens of thousands of years ago. Over the long ages, there had been dozens of successors, and the name Balzarna was simply pa.s.sed down from one Dreadlord to the next upon inheriting the throne, as if it were a t.i.tle.
Otherwise, given the lifespan of demons, it would be impossible to endure for such a long time.
Eternal life was a privilege reserved only for the divine.
The divine. They did not allow non-divine beings to sit with them.
As for Lainekel, his situation was relatively special. He was no longer an ordinary living being but a specially alchemically modified ent.i.ty. Apart from a small part of his torso and face, who knew how many times his organs and limbs had been replaced.
Only through repeated replacements of these “parts” could he persist until now.
After the initial battle paused, the Ocean Crown quickly repaired the damaged fortifications, inspected the alchemical cannons and enchanted devices, arranged reconnaissance teams to closely monitor the movements of the demon army, and collected the bodies of the fallen soldiers… There was much to be done.
While discussions about the demon invasion and the state of the battle were intense on chat channels and forums, a sudden news announcement caused the entire channel to explode.
“Shocking news! The Ocean Crown successfully repelled a demon vanguard legion of five hundred thousand troops, killed dozens of demon heroes, and inflicted casualties on two hundred thousand demons. Victory in the first battle!”
