Chapter 158: Power of the Heroes

“An Extraordinary Rank-5 Eagle Man?”

Clearly, that was an Eagle Man who had reached Extraordinary Rank-5.

Also, he could be one of the Eagle Men who had a talent.

The Eagle Men’s air forces were obviously intimidated by the human beings’ approaches after two Golden Condors were hit in a row. They all ascended and postponed their attacks.

“Huh? More Golden Condors?”

However, several more Golden Condors appeared in the sky other than those who carried the Eagle Men.

The new Golden Condors were smaller in size and seemed to have not matured yet.

Clearly, the Eagle Men had been trying to buy themselves more time for those Golden Condors to grow. If most of them were transformed into air forces, together with the Extraordinary Rank-5 Eagle Men who could fly on their own, they would have enough advantages against human beings.

Unfortunately, human beings didn’t give them the chance.

“Those Golden Condors are not carrying passengers!”

The new little Golden Condors weren’t carrying any Eagle Men. Instead, they were carrying black balls that were in the shape of rocks!

“Not good! It’s their ‘magma balls’!”

Such magma balls were quite weird. They looked identical to regular rocks, and no heat could be sensed even if one walked right past them.

However, scorching magma would flow out the moment they were broken.

If they were dropped onto the human formation, they would undoubtedly create major chaos and significantly disrupt the formation.

Besides, it was obvious that those little Golden Condors were flying towards the artillerymen!

Because those little Golden Condors were flying at a high altitude, it was impossible for Ling Zhen and Wu Qiao to attack them with the Frost Metal Cannons!

The Eagle Men had carefully chosen the location of their counterattack. There were no shelters around for their enemy to take.

“Combine the shields!”

Seeing that, Lu Zhishen, who was holding a shield made of the Heart of Red Wood and was responsible for commanding all the shield soldiers and protecting Ling Zhen and other artillerymen, roared out.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

After that, the soldiers around him joined their shields, upon which Lu Zhishen activated the power of the Heart of Red Wood. Those Mahogany Shields were instantly combined into a massive shield ten meters in diameter.

Although the shields had been separated before, they could be rejoined with the Heart of Red Wood.

Actually, that was the biggest reason why the red wood was rated as “Rare”.

“Everyone stands below this!”

Lu Zhishen, who had broken into Extraordinary Rank-6 a couple of days earlier, heaved the enormous shield more than ten meters in diameter by himself, covering Ling Zhen, Wu Qiao, and all the others.

Boom, boom, boom...

Those black-and-red magma balls were dropped from the sky, and the magma caused when they were broken was quite forceful.

However, thanks to his magnificent strength, Lu Zhishen was absolutely unshaken.

Besides, such wood from the Forest Monsters was highly resistant to high temperature and flames. Even the magma balls couldn’t really damage it quickly!

“Quick!”

Gongsun Sheng, on the other hand, had already chanted a spell.

The wind instantly started blowing, and a mass of clouds was gathered in the sky right above everyone from the Twin Dragon Mount fort.

Then, some rainwater that drizzled from the clouds put out the magma on the surface of the Mahogany Shield that Lu Zhishen was raising.

As a result, the Eagle Men and the Golden Condors in the sky all lost their sight.

They couldn’t really perform any attack. After all, the area down below was too huge, and neither the Eagle Men’s arrows nor the Golden Condors’ magma balls were regular items that could be consumed randomly!

The Eagle Men’s fatal move had been cracked, and human beings continued their attack even more fiercely after realizing the enemy’s hidden methods despite the minor setback they suffered earlier!

Boom! Boom!

Under Lu Zhishen’s protection, the artillerymen launched their cannonballs to the Eagle Men’s formation without worrying about the cannonballs over their heads!

“Die!”

Then, the Black Mountain Wolf Riders, led by Yang Zhi, directly marched into the formation by taking a shortcut through some woods and rocks.

The Commander and high-level Extraordinary Eagle Men were all in the sky, which meant that the Eagle Men’s ground forces were no match for human beings at all. The soldiers who gave their shields to Lu Zhishen all charged forward too.

Surprisingly, the Eagle Men in the sky didn’t return to help their companions who were faced with such a situation.

Instead, all the Eagle Men, including the Extraordinary Rank-5 one, flew towards the Twin Dragon Mount fort.

Those little Golden Condors didn’t drop their magma balls to the artillerymen but to the path from which human beings came!

Clearly, they were hoping to finish off their enemy with one critical strike!

The main objective in the quest of Ten-Species Competition wasn’t about killing as many enemies as possible, but about whether or not the enemies’ settlement cores were destroyed.

In particular, now that only two species were left on the whole battlefield, the quest of Ten-Species Competition would be considered completed as long as they conquered the enemy’s settlement!

The Eagle Men knew that they weren’t really as strong as human beings, and the odds of victory were slim even if they went down to help.

However, by luring their enemy to press forward, they had trapped the human beings’ main troop and their heavy firepower within their territory.

The human beings’ way back had been blocked by the magma balls that the little Golden Condors dropped too!

Needless to say, the top warriors among the Eagle Men had a good chance to destroy the humans’ settlement core!

“You’re finally here? I’ve been waiting for you... I was worried that you might not come!”

In the Twin Dragon Mount fort, Lu Junyi stood on the top of the Temple of Providence with his stick alone.

As he looked at the dark shadows that were swooping close, there was no fear in his eyes, only contempt and the determination to fight!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

From the sky, a bunch of green and golden arrows fell on him!

Pa! Pa! Pa!

But they were all swept away by a stick in the next moment.

As he waved the Qilin Stick, the weapon expanded to almost ten meters long, and he covered the central temple of the Twin Dragon Mount fort entirely on his own flawlessly!

“By burning this incense, I hereby summon Erlang Shen here. The divine general shall come as quickly as possible!”

In the Temple of Providence, Ninth Uncle, who had stepped into Extraordinary Rank-5, finished the summoning with Mister Bug who stayed behind.

In particular, a golden-armored divine general, who was holding a spear and had a third eye on his forehead, had also been drawn on Mister Bug’s arm.

Mister Bug was covered in a golden light and gradually condensed into the illusion of a divine general.

Then, he opened his mouth...

“Woof!”
