The Demon Fireflies’ poison took away the lives of several thousand soldiers in an instant. Meanwhile, the Mushroom Ticks that could kill within seconds were still searching for new targets.
The Federation Army was in utter disorder.
The Federation Army had not stood a chance when it was up against the Venomous Shaman Insects in the previous battle. Even if they sent out Super Mages, the Venomous Insect Shamans could still conquer the battlefield with their venomous insects as long as they remained hidden!.
“Screw these insects, the Andes Mountain Range is full of poisonous species, providing the Venomous Insect Shamans with the best environment to cultivate their venomous insects. The Magic Association forbids them from using the venomous insects against humans. Now that the rules no longer apply to them, they can use the venomous insects recklessly and treat the lives of our soldiers as fodder!” Brigadier General Blair snarled.
The Venomous Insect Shamans were infamous in the Andes Mountain Range. People were more scared of them than Curse Mages.
The Venomous Insect Shamans were unstoppable on a battlefield with lots of dead bodies and living humans, especially since other Elements were not very effective against their magic.
It did not matter how outstanding one’s Cultivation was when the poison kept spreading among the soldiers!
A signaler came down from the sky and informed Brigadier General Blair, “Brigadier General Blair, our Eagle Horse Skyriders have defeated the enemy’s air force. They are moving upstream of the Scorching River, but they will be separated from our ground forces. We have to regroup with them before the enemy sends out more aerial forces to stop them.”
“Eagle Horse Skyriders?” Mo Fan asked, interested.
“They are our army’s main air force. The enemy’s aerial forces are no match for ours. The only units that can tear the enemy’s army apart are the Crusaders and the Eagle Horse Skyriders,” Brigadier General Blair explained.
Mo Fan had earned Brigadier General Blair’s trust. The general felt like they still had a chance to win the war as long as Mo Fan was with them!
“Did they already push deeper into the enemy’s lines?” Mo Fan asked.
Mo Fan had already noticed the riders in the sky. Soldiers wearing the Federation Army’s uniform were sweeping across the sky in batches, dominating the battle above the battlefield.
“Yes, we can’t afford to waste our time on the Brown Rebels in these woods, so the Lieutenant General has led the Eagle Horse Riders and pushed through the enemy’s lines from the sky,” Brigadier General Blair told him.
“They are fighting without any support if the ground army doesn’t push together with them,” Mo Fan noticed.
“We don’t have a choice. If we lose another battle, the Brown Rebels will fight back fiercely. We’ll lose if they reclaim Banlo City. Every officer above the rank of captain is more or less dead, even if we made it back alive,” Brigadier General Blair said stiffly.
Their superiors in the Federation were putting the army under great pressure. They had to seize this side of the Scorching River at all costs.
The army was in a precarious situation!
In simpler words, the Lieutenant General was taking a desperate gamble.
He was leading the Eagle Horse Skyriders to push through the enemy’s lines without support, while the ground army was stuck in the woods because of the Venomous Insect Shamans. If the ground forces failed to push through the enemy’s defense, the Eagle Horse Skyriders would fall to the surrounding Brown Rebels!
Once the Eagle Horse Skyriders lost, the Brown Rebels would launch a counterattack to reclaim Banlo City!
It was the worst possible situation!
