Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 646: The battlefield is the fastest place to improve one’s strength
The dong dong sound grew faster and faster, until finally, it transformed into a Hell Chariot wreathed in flames and charged out.
Wherever the battering ram passed, all Night Stalkers were dismembered.
After Gormathar controlled the battering ram to charge back and forth through the dark creature horde a dozen times or so, the pressure on the front line instantly eased.
Crack!
"The situation has reversed!"
Brontes's greatsword slashed down, beheading a Night Stalker that had fallen to its knees.
"It's Gormathar!"
"It's our large siege weapon!"
Knight Godfrey toppled a Night Stalker and pierced its head with his lance, then also looked up towards the front.
The appearance of the battering ram boosted morale. Empowered by Gormathar and the others' blood and life force, even Alpha-level beings would find it difficult to face alone.
Wuwuwu!
Just then, the sound of a horn signaling an attack rang out from the rear of the battlefield.
"It's the signal to attack!"
"Steropes, Godfrey, let's go together!"
Brontes called out to Steropes and Godfrey, then charged out with his great shield and greatsword.
"Mixed armies, charge for me! The more you kill, the more resources you'll get!"
Grum Ironfist the dwarven warrior raised his warhammer high, standing on the shoulders of an orc slave, and issued the order to charge.
However, Grum Ironfist the dwarven warrior's small eyes were constantly fixed on that powerful and adorable battering ram.
That's right, adorable!
In the eyes of a dwarf, all powerful machinery was adorable, even more adorable than a naked woman stripped bare.
Grum Ironfist the dwarf was drooling, his eyes filled with a possessive gleam.
"Where did the Stoneheart Horde get such a terrifyingly large contraption?"
"Grum Ironfist must be seeing things!"
"This kind of machine, full of a sense of magic and technology, should be appearing in a dwarven city!"
Grum Ironfist was not just a warrior, but also a forgemaster.
He knew very well that if this kind of battering ram from the Stoneheart Horde could be mass-produced, it would be an absolute superweapon on land.
"It seems when we go back this time, our dwarven race needs to get closer to the Stoneheart Horde. We must obtain the blueprints for this kind of powerful weapon."
"Big fella, follow it! Let me observe my little cutie up close."
Grum Ironfist slapped the Orc's head, and the Orc carrying him shouldered its weapon and rushed out with the others.
"Damn it, the great Ragscrape hasn't shot enough yet!"
The Night Stalkers' offensive was suppressed by the sudden appearance of the battering ram, and the number of enemies on the front line decreased significantly.
This made Ragscrape the Gnoll, who had been playing with the heavy crossbow, extremely frustrated. The heavy crossbow was very powerful and highly effective at killing enemies; Ragscrape really hadn't had enough fun yet.
Slap!
Maldrak slapped Ragscrape on the head and said in a booming voice.
"Hurry up and follow! If you're any later, you won't be able to scoop up any benefits!"
After saying this, Maldrak the giant warrior rushed out ahead.
Ragscrape the Gnoll paused for a moment, then tossed the heavy crossbow aside like trash and accelerated to catch up with his friend Maldrak.
"Wait for me!"
Ragscrape ran a few steps, thought of something, quickly ran back to pick up his long saber, then turned and continued the chase.
Similar scenes were constantly playing out on the battlefield.
Even the personnel from the mixed armies, for the sake of profit and resources, also charged out at the first opportunity.
At the rear of the battlefield, Delilah and Saelen stood together, surveying the overall situation.
"Aren't you going to join the excitement?"
Delilah glanced at Saelen; the latter's beautiful leather armor was stained with a lot of blood.
Evidently, in the previous melee, she must have also faced assassination attempts.
"I can't go!"
Saelen shook her head, pointed to the sky, and then pointed behind Delilah.
In the sky, a large number of Dark Bat Hawks were still circling, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
And behind Delilah, there were no more scorpion soldiers.
"Many thanks!"
Saelen's meaning was clear: she would stay to protect Delilah.
"What about your Four-Winged Blood Bat?"
Saelen looked up but didn't see Delilah's flying mount in the nearby sky.
"It's still alive, at a higher altitude!"
The Four-Winged Blood Bat, fighting the Dark Bat Hawk flock alone, simply couldn't win.
After killing some Dark Bat Hawks, the Four-Winged Blood Bat, relying on its superior strength, had increased its flight altitude.
Many Dark Bat Hawks couldn't reach that higher altitude.
Any that did follow could only become prey for the Four-Winged Blood Bat.
Precisely because it had increased its altitude, the Four-Winged Blood Bat couldn't provide timely rescue when Delilah encountered enemies.
"What is that thing?"
Saelen pointed at the battering ram Gormathar was operating, extremely curious.
Saelen was very sure this thing hadn't appeared during the North-South War.
"It's a battering ram!"
"It's our lord's spoil of war; there's only this one."
Delilah gave a charming smile; she understood Saelen's intention in staying to protect her.
Saelen not only wanted information about the battering ram but also wanted to purchase such a killing machine from the Stoneheart Horde.
"Aren't you planning to study the battering ram?"
"If this thing can be mass-produced, the combat effectiveness of ground troops will definitely be greatly enhanced."
Delilah shook her head and tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"I won't hide it from you; we also just recently obtained this."
"We didn't even have time to study it before it was thrown into this invasion war."
Delilah's tone was calm. The siege battle ahead was raging, yet facing war and death, her heart was very peaceful at this moment.
A wondrous aura appeared around Delilah; she became even more captivating.
"Your strength has increased?"
Saelen looked at Delilah, her eyes filled with incredible shock.
Just now, right before her eyes, the Stoneheart Horde's Elder of Stewardship, the Succubus Queen of the succubus race (tribe), had advanced to Alpha peak.
"Just luck. This war has allowed me to gain a little something!"
The corners of Delilah's eyes tilted up slightly; her face and eyes were full of confidence.
Delilah had advanced to Alpha peak, and moreover, she didn't feel her potential was exhausted.
This was a confidence and joy stemming from the bottom of her heart!
She was just one final step away from advancing to Legendary level.
"Indeed, the battlefield is the fastest place to improve one's strength!"
In the distance, the Night Stalkers' offensive was broken, but this didn't mean they would surrender and submit.
The deaths of numerous kin and extra-planar creatures, and the thick scent of blood, instead made them even more frenzied.
The Night Stalkers and the invading armies once again formed a clear battle line in the city wall area.
The battle had not ended, and the symphony composed of life and blood had not yet drawn to a close.
The void passage. Orion opened his eyes.
On the other side, Lolth's gaze was profound as she stared at Orion.
"Just a phantom; it shouldn't have been enough to heavily injure you, right?"
Orion's tone carried a hint of teasing. He truly hadn't expected Lolth to finally make a move, wanting to defeat the invading army led by Delilah.
Previously, Lolth hadn't acted against Earthshaker, Gronthar, and Drakthul's group. Orion had thought that, harboring thoughts of surrender, she would choose not to act.
Unexpectedly, Lolth had made a move after all.
"It seems the succubus-led team in Shadowcrag Forest also encountered your will projection."
"Take a guess!"
Orion smiled without speaking; his understanding of Lolth had deepened another notch.
The Spider Queen before him was not only cautious but also very ambitious and unwilling to suffer a loss.
