Chapter 555: The Divine Punishment

The death of their leader rendered the Zergs into disarray. Panicking, the Zergs charged at the human soldiers with abandon. Although the pressure on the city was reduced, the three hundred or so human warriors that were trapped behind the enemy lines faced a vicious retaliation. In a heartbeat, more than a dozen soldiers fell to the ground.

”Pamir, don't mind me. I am almost done for! Go ahead and save yourself! Marcos said as he took a few deep breaths to cope with the pain.

”Buzz off! It's not like I care about you or anything. I just don't want to get bored due to lack of competition. ” Pamir shot back.

”Everyone, form a charge formation. We will safeguard captain Marcos back to the city!” Pamir shouted before he dove into the sea of Zergs.

”Captain, what about us? None of them will come back if we don't act now.” Han urged Aamir.

Aamir held a cigar in between his lips as he struck down a couple of Zergs that made their way into the city. He wanted to send his men to rescue those warriors who were trapped. However, he knew that regardless of how many fighters he sent out, they would be overwhelmed instantly by the Zerg army. The fate of those trapped warriors was already sealed, but he could still try to save them by himself.

”I will go!”

”Captain, let me go out there and save them!”

”Shut up! You are a mastery caster. Going out there is courting death for yourself.”

Meanwhile, the Zergs' insistent attack had forced Battle Wolf into the last line of defense. It would only be a matter of time before the area they were guarding would be occupied by the Zergs. However, the warriors there were trying all they could to prevent this from happening. They knew that once the Zergs were able to tear an opening in the defense line, Aamir would have to face enemies on both fronts.

”Aamir, you b*stard!” Marcos shouted. However, he didn't resent the latter's decision for not sending anyone out here to help them. He knew a long time ago that Aamir was a compassionate person; but as a commander, he had to value the lives of every single soldier. Marcos had always known that if Aamir had been any more selfish, he would have already become the leader of the most powerful of war band in the Maersa district.

When the dawn broke, the battle had been going on for an entire night. The mindless Zergs still rushed at the city tirelessly, but the human soldiers were exhausted beyond words.

Suddenly, a group of high-level warriors appeared in the sky, and they immediately attracted the attention of the Zergs. Seeing that the leaders of the major factions were in trouble, Hans urged the mastery casters to gather whatever was left in their sea of consciousness and cast fire spells to help the leader's fighting.

The b*stards from the Jade City still didn't show up.

Marcos struck down another Zerg, after which, he no longer had the energy to lift his blade to block another sharp claw that was already coming at him from the side. Marcos felt the time slow down as memories flooded his mind. He had been a proud soldier, a respect warlord; he was fearless...

The Zerg's attack closed in...

KOM!

At that moment, a large beam of white light, about a hundred meters in radius, suddenly cast upon Marcos, and all the Zergs within that light simply melted; flesh, chitin, and all.

Wang Tong helped Marcos to his feet and said, ”Captain Marcos, leave the rest to us!”

Another hundred or so warriors suddenly appeared on the battlefield. But what could these hundred or so soldiers achieve?

At that moment, one of those soldiers attacked, and the battlefield was brightened by the overbearing blade Aura: a Legendary Warrior!

The sight rekindled hope in everyone's heart, and the legendary soldier attacked again. Energies from the earth poured into the blade as it grew in size by the second. The power had shocked even the leaders of the factions.

This was the power of a level twenty-three legendary warrior!

”By the Gods! Who is this guy?”

Meanwhile, two of the warriors started casting spells while floating in the air. They were easily visible, and people quickly identified them as Guan Dongyang and Xiao Yuyu.

However, their soul energy suggested that they had reached a legendary level. Was that even possible?

Inferno Hell!

Bub-zero Blast!

KOM! KOM!

In a blink, the Zergs near the city wall were reduced into ashes. However, that was far from the highlight of the fight. Wang Tong raised his Einherjar Lance and aimed at the mass of the Zergs that were still pouring into the city. His face held a deadly calm that reflected death.
