The Flying Dragon Legion killed all the scouts they found and hid themselves five hundred meters from the enemy.
“Are we attacking together?” Ye Bufan asked.
“Naturally. I’ll have the Elf Archers and the Flying Dragon Legion initiate the attack from the air first. You just lead the cavalry attack. I’ll open the city gate,” Zhou Yan said.
“Okay.” Ye Bufan nodded.
Zhou Yan immediately took action, soaring into the sky and leading the Elf Archers and the Flying Dragon Legion to attack the territory of Tianzhu Kingdom.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
“Woo woo woo~~~~”
The people of Tianzhu Kingdom had already spotted Zhou Yan in the sky and became vigilant. They prepared their arrows and mages, waiting for Zhou Yan and his companions to approach their attack range.
But before they could launch their attack, the Elf Archers had already begun attacking the soldiers of Tianzhu Kingdom.
As the dense rain of arrows descended upon them, the enemy quickly raised their shields to defend themselves.
“Charge!”
Seeing Zhou Yan make his move, Ye Bufan also led his cavalry in an attack.
“Rumble!!!”
Dust billowed as ten thousand cavalrymen rapidly advanced towards the enemy’s city gate.
Zhou Yan commanded, “Prepare armor-piercing arrows!”
The Elf Archers switched to armor-piercing arrows and aimed at the enemy.
“Fire!”
Arrow after arrow of armor-piercing projectiles flew towards the enemy. The enemy mages cast a barrier, but they didn’t expect these arrows to penetrate their barrier and then shatter the shields of their soldiers.
“Not good, these are enemy armor-piercing arrows!”
“Damn it, these are Zhou Yan’s elf archers from Shenlong Kingdom!”
“Curse it, why are we encountering these troublesome guys again? Their cavalry has also launched an attack, this is truly a terrible situation.”
Facing the armor-piercing arrows of the Elf Archers, the soldiers of Tianzhu Kingdom were helpless. The barrier was useless, and their shields could not block the arrows. What’s more, they couldn’t even hit the attackers. Anyone who encountered such a frustrating situation would know how it felt.
They retreated further and further, forced to hide. The entire city wall was suddenly undefended. There was nothing they could do, and they didn’t want this either.
But if they didn’t, would they be shot like targets?
This was clearly impossible. They unanimously agreed to gather all their soldiers and prepare to fight the enemy within the city.
However, the Elf Archers had already flown towards the city center.
“Not good! Quickly defend the crystal, their target is the crystal!”
“These guys are too detestable, having the ability to fly is truly disgusting.”
“If only we had soldiers with flying abilities.”
The five lords of Tianzhu Kingdom immediately ordered soldiers to return and guard the crystal. But the area around the crystal was open ground, with no place to hide.
Seeing the sea of heads below, the elves showed no mercy. After a volley of arrows fell, a large number of soldiers, in their attempt to protect the crystal, were annihilated.
But they had no choice but to protect the crystal. They wanted to counterattack, but their attacks couldn’t reach the targets in the sky, so they could only use various means to protect the crystal.
But none of it was effective. As the archers unleashed wave after wave of terrifying arrow rain, the crystal’s defense rapidly declined and finally shattered.
“It’s over.”
As the entire crystal vanished, the city disappeared as well. Ye Bufan, who was attacking outside, was stunned, and then he heard that they had captured a city.
“Damn, it’s done so quickly? I haven’t even started attacking yet.” Ye Bufan was speechless. Zhou Yan had acted too fast, leaving him no chance to participate.
“It’s too fast. If there’s no effective counter to this flying legion, won’t they just be unstoppable?”
“Zhou Yan will probably wipe out these cities again. He alone might be able to destroy other people’s territories.”
“If this continues, their strength will only grow stronger, while others will only grow weaker.”
“Isn’t this a good thing? It just shows that the new generation of students in our Shenlong Kingdom are excellent.”
Out of over two hundred countries, one had already been eliminated by Zhou Yan. The remaining cities would likely be conquered by Zhou Yan using the same method soon.
“So quickly? Then are we going to attack the next one?” Ye Bufan asked eagerly as Zhou Yan flew towards him.
“Yes, we’ll continue to the next city. Let’s take advantage of this momentum and eliminate a few more,” Zhou Yan replied.
Thus, the two first summoned their soldiers and then set off for the next location.
Everyone looked at Zhou Yan’s next target and discovered it was the territory of five lords from the Sun Never Sets Empire, and most of their soldiers were mages.
Zhou Yan employed the same tactic against them. However, the opponents quickly detected Zhou Yan and his group and began to deploy their defenses. A group of mages on the city walls prepared to counterattack.
Zhou Yan, leading the Elf Archers, struck first, launching an assault on the enemy. Dense volleys of arrows rained down like a torrential downpour.
The opponents retaliated with their own attacks. A barrage of spells flew towards the arrow rain, and magic and arrows exploded in mid-air. The Elf Archers’ attack did not achieve the same overwhelming effect as before.
Furthermore, the enemy had many wind-attribute mages who unleashed numerous wind spells, directly deflecting the arrow rain and causing the Elf Archers to lose their intended potency.
“Good adaptability, much better than the others,” Zhou Yan remarked, satisfied with their counterattack.
Although the Elf Archers did not gain a significant advantage, it was only temporary. As long as the enemy mages’ magic power was depleted, they would eventually be defeated.
Zhou Yan now possessed fourteen thousand Elf Archers and a thousand Flying Dragon Cavalry.
Zhou Yan was currently flying towards the enemy territory’s crystal. They were forced to dispatch more troops to guard the crystal, thus significantly reducing the number of defenders on the city walls.
“Rumble!!!”
Ye Bufan’s cavalry was launching an assault on the enemy. As long as the enemy’s magic could not pose a significant threat to Ye Bufan’s cavalry, the final victory would still belong to them.
The students of the Sun Never Sets Empire also noticed the cavalry outside the city. They had to divide all their territorial soldiers into two groups: one to defend the crystal and the other to defend the city walls.
The thousand Flying Dragon Cavalry were now looking for an opportunity. Seeing the cavalry enter the enemy’s attack range, they finally launched their assault.
The thousand Flying Dragon Cavalry picked up large stones and then descended from the sky, hurling them down upon the enemies on the city walls.
Facing these stones, their mages were forced to target the giant rocks in the sky with their spells, which also consumed a considerable number of their personnel.
