Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System-Chapter 445 - 202: The Horns of War and the Terror of Divine Spirits

Chapter 445: Chapter 202: The Horns of War and the Terror of Divine Spirits

After the Night Shadow Clan and the Barbarians each left, Lear felt a bit heavy-hearted.

The situation had clearly taken an unexpected turn.

But no matter how things changed, the strength of the territory was always the only answer.

After calming his fluctuating emotions, he decisively returned to the territory to gather the army.

Never mind anything else, flatten the underground passage occupied by the Holy Song Clan first.

What nonsense is Rose; around the Swamp, no force threatening Weilu City is allowed to exist!

This time Lear did not hold back and directly recalled the Deserted Tomb Guards and the Crimson Queen Bee sent into the Undead Plane.

They set out together.

In recent days, the Flesh Butcher had gathered over two thousand Skeleton Warriors, already filling up the castle hiding the Life Box of the Dragon Lich.

There were no powerful forces around the castle.

This allowed the Flesh Butcher to expand methodically and without much pressure.

The draw of the army would not affect the overall strategy.

Soon, the Deserted Tomb Guards and Crimson Wasps returned from the Undead Plane and entered the ranks.

Meanwhile, the total number reached 17 squadrons, and the fully armed Cold-blooded Cavalry were ready to move.

These days, with the frantic forging at the Blacksmith Shop, the newly promoted Cold-blooded Cavalry was all equipped with Rock Heavy Armor.

Nearly two thousand Level 12 units mounted on ferocious and vicious Swift Lizards, the orderly array created a powerful visual impact.

Once they initiate a charge, it’s unimaginable what kind of terrifying destruction they could inflict.

Even city walls would be knocked down!

Five squadrons of Dark Night Hunters, riding Unicorns and Swamp Giant Horned Deer, followed behind.

Another two squadrons had already gone ahead to scout, and they would rejoin when the army arrived.

In the sky, two thousand Deserted Tomb Guards tightly gripped scythes glowing with a ghostly blue light, the inscriptions on them flickering continuously.

All around, there were also sixty thousand Crimson Wasps with long tail stingers.

By all accounts, the total military strength had reached an exaggerated level.

In terms of high-tier combat power, Lear brought along a Level 17 Two-headed Giant Chief, a Level 16 Mechanical Flying Dragon, three Level 15 Great Demons, plus the Crimson Queen Bee whose level reached 14 after its promotion.

For safety’s sake, he also retrieved the Land of Crimson Rot.

If the enemy was only the Holy Song Clan, they could just push through.

However, behind them stood the Dark Night Elf God and, in various mythological tales of great repute, the Abyssal Evil God—Spider Queen Rose.

No amount of caution was excessive.

After the troops gathered, Lear immediately ordered the march.

All cavalry, the speed of advance was very fast.

Out of the Swamp, they galloped straight toward the underground passage.

The surrounding Wilderness had already been cleared.

On this road, it was silent and quiet, only the sound of the mounts’ hooves pounding the ground.

The army maintained the highest vigilance.

After two hours of frantic running, a semi-transparent white web appeared in Lear’s view.

Its range spanned the entire wilderness ahead, and sight was covered with webs as far as the eye could see.

In some areas, the height of the webs even exceeded twenty meters, weaving through the vegetation and wrapping the entire land within.

At the edge, seven or eight rotting beasts hung on the webs, their bodies wrapped in silk, emitting a pungent, eye-stinging stench.

Green-headed flies buzzed, making people nauseous.

The silent corpses spoke wordlessly of the horror of this Land of Death.

Lear opened up his senses entirely, immediately discovering that the web-covered area was shielded by unique magic energy, forming a massive void.

This deepened his inner vigilance; after retracting his spirit, he sent people to gather back the Dark Night Hunters dispatched all around for reconnaissance in recent days.

At the same time, the three Great Demons, who had arrived earlier for observation, also joined in.

However, after pooling their information, he felt a bit disappointed.

Though several attacks had been initiated over the past two days, they yielded little, revealing nothing about the situation within the webs.

The webs, carrying poisons and strong adhesiveness, isolated everything.

After pondering for a moment, Lear exhaled a long breath and decisively gave the order.

"Deserted Tomb Guards, attack first, destroy the webs, and force out the enemy to assess the situation!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Coordinate with the Crimson Wasps for the attack."

"Dark Night Hunters, provide long-range support."

"Cold-blooded Cavalry, await orders."

The simple and resolute orders were issued, and the low-flying Deserted Tomb Guards immediately flew out, breaking into the web-covered area below.

Scythes were swung in their hands.

Upgraded to full level, the scythes, with all inscriptions filled, now carried physical damage, and with their swings, those webs capable of easily entangling a giant beast were directly severed.

Large sections crumbled away.

Two thousand Deserted Tomb Guards immediately started a sweeping action to clean the webs thoroughly.

The webs not only had defensive capabilities but if an enemy stepped on them, the vibrations caused by struggling would immediately attract the attention of the Underground Spiders.

Such large-scale commotion clearly couldn’t escape the attention of the enemies within.

In just a few minutes.

Hissing~

Hissing~

From within the webs came waves of hissing like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, akin to a knife scratching glass, piercing and sharp.

After a moment, the towering webs suddenly stirred, and one by one, Underground Spiders over four meters tall, covered in brown spots, appeared on the webs.

Seeing the Deserted Tomb Guards recklessly destroying the webs, these underground creatures immediately became enraged.

They rushed forward in a flash, their mouths with sharp venomous fangs biting directly.

But their fangs passed straight through the bodies of the Deserted Tomb Guards, unable to inflict harm.

Physical immunity—the trait of ghostly undead.
