Chapter 1467: Chapter 641: Outbreak of War! Lanling’s Heart-Piercing Strike!
A vast army of 1.2 million is stationed outside Black Demon City, with densely packed camps resembling a colossal city.
All the troops are waiting for the arrival of the Mammoth Clan’s army.
Supplies flow endlessly, piled high like mountains.
Initially, these chieftains of the Demon Banner tribes were reluctant to send troops. But now, they are excited, not viewing it as a war, but as a military parade, a massive event.
Using an army of 1.2 million to conquer a Close-Human Tribe of less than 100,000, already shattered by a single beast, is indeed a huge joke.
As a result, there is not a trace of tension among these hundred-plus chieftains and the 1.2 million troops.
Once the armies assembled, it wasn’t three days per feast nor five days per grand feast; instead, there were three feasts a day, wishing to drink themselves drunk every day.
Many chieftains have never seen such a grand spectacle in their entire lives; it was magnificent, truly awe-inspiring.
At midday, inside a massive tent, over a hundred chieftains were again feasting, drinking and boasting away.
“Why even bother fighting? When our army of more than a million reaches that trash Flame Demon Tribe, one pee from each of us will flood their broken settlement.”
“Let me be clear, once we charge in, don’t kill them all at once. The women of the Near-Human Tribe are all tender and beautiful. Out of less than 100,000 people, there are probably one or two thousand women.”
At that moment, the whole ground suddenly shook, and the cups on the tables almost jumped.
“Boom boom boom…” Simultaneously, there were dull, heavy crashes.
A chieftain asked carelessly.
Soon after, waves of exclamations came from countless soldiers outside.
The chieftains lifted the windows of the tent to look outside and gasped at the unprecedented sight.
One after another, crumbling skies appeared from the west, almost blocking out the sun.
Everyone knew how gigantic the Mammoth Warriors were, but seeing them in person was still extraordinarily shocking.
This Mammoth Clan army was divided into two types.
The first type had only four limbs; the upper limbs could be hands, wielding weapons—these were the Mammoth Warriors.
The second type, resembling centaurs, had four elephant legs but an upper body with two sturdy arms—these were the Mammoth Knights.
The standing Mammoth Warriors were each over fifteen meters tall, with legs over one meter in diameter and weighing more than 100,000 jin.
The four-legged Mammoth Knights with long arms were twelve meters tall, eighteen meters long, and weighed over 200,000 jin.
Each warrior of the Mammoth Clan wore immense armor, resembling a moving fortress.
This time, the Mammoth Clan dispatched 2,000 warriors, almost depleting their tribe except for defenses at their turf.
Despite their disputes with the Black Demon Family, they faithfully fulfilled their contract, fighting for the Demon Banner at critical moments without any reservations. They even brought their own military provisions, carrying copious amounts of bananas.
The presence of the 2,000 Mammoth Army seemed even more formidable than the Demon Banner’s million-strong force.
Stretching over ten li, boundless and infinite.
On the highest castle, Nai Shu’s eyes widened to the extreme when he saw the Mammoth Warriors appear, and his breath momentarily paused.
He had seen Mammoth Warriors while visiting the Mammoth Clan with his father, but those were only scattered individuals.
At this moment, the assembly of 2,000 Mammoth Warriors was overwhelmingly powerful.
He couldn’t imagine the scene when the Mammoth Warriors begin their siege.
Regarding the Flame Demon Tribe’s walls, let alone 2,000 Mammoth Warriors, even twenty would be enough to breach them.
These 2,000 Mammoth Warriors would even easily conquer Black Demon City. Nai Shu even suspected that this Mammoth charge could effortlessly crush the walls.
Luckily, the Mammoths were non-confrontational; if led by an ambitious leader, having such a mighty neighbor like the Demon Banner could be an existential disaster.
The 2,000 Mammoth Warriors marched into the base camp.
The million-strong surrounding troops held their breath, fearing their breathing might offend these formidable Mammoth Warriors.
The chieftain of the Mammoth Clan was an impossibly strong knight named Xue Ya. This update is available on NoveI(F)ire.net
He led several knights to the gates of Black Demon City and said, “Respected Black Demon Family, the Mammoth Clan has come to support and fight for your family as per the contract from 300 years ago.”
The Demon Banner Master and Nai Shu rode atop two Griffin Beasts and flew to the Mammoth Clan Leader, saying, “Welcome, honored Chief Xue Ya, and welcome, mighty warriors of the Mammoth Clan.”
Chief Xue Ya of the Mammoth Clan meticulously paid his respects, then led his army to the Mammoth Clan’s camp, setting up tents.
Now, all the armies had gathered.
1.2 million troops of the Demon Banner, 3,000 Gryphon Knights, 500 Dragonhawk Knights supporting from Rakshasa City, and 2,000 Mammoth Warriors.
This force was a devastating military power, aimed at annihilating a tiny Flame Demon Tribe. It was like using a cannon to kill mosquitoes, like bombing a widow village with a nuclear bomb.
“Tonight we feast, and tomorrow morning, the army will march!” ordered the Demon Banner Master.
