Li Siya was a little overwhelmed by this wave of soul crystals.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that her past worries seemed a bit excessive; a Dungeon Lord who could casually throw out 1,000 soul crystals was not someone she needed to worry about at all.
Combined with the information she had seen in the Lord chat room two days prior, Li Siya quickly understood the cause and effect.
Especially after learning that Chen Yu’s territory was currently under attack, she immediately invested all 1,000 soul crystals into the War Mill, making her territory’s troop-production system operate at maximum power.
She did not covet Chen Yu’s soul crystals and put all the resources into supporting troop production.
About ten minutes later, a 200-strong Golden Holy Lion unit marched majestically towards Lu Yufan’s territory.
To facilitate Qi Maosong’s command, Chen Yu and Li Siya had already established an alliance, allowing for location sharing of their outdoor troops.
The 200 Golden Holy Lions, in a state of rapid advance, reached the target point in two hours.
The full name of the Golden Holy Lion was the Sphinx Golden Beast, equivalent to a centaur with a lion's head.
When these 200 strong creatures appeared before Qi Maosong, he was startled.
What the heck?
Two hundred elite troops, nearly three meters tall, all of Excellent ★★★★ quality or higher, all under my command?
Lord Chen Yu is truly unfathomable; when did he hide such a unit?
“The Golden Holy Lion unit awaits your command.”
The 200 Golden Holy Lions roared in unison.
Frightened, Qi Maosong quickly made a shushing gesture, “Quiet, quiet, don’t alert the enemy.”
“Understood.”
Seeing how obedient these guys were, Qi Maosong couldn’t help but say with a grin, “Speaking of which, will you do whatever I tell you to do?”
“Yes, that is our Lord’s command.”
“Then try to commit suicide.”
As a result, one of the Golden Holy Lions actually raised the long spear in its hand, intending to stab itself.
“Stop!”
Qi Maosong hurriedly stopped him, “Just kidding. If you’re going to die, die on the battlefield. Now, everyone, be alert. The enemy’s territory defense is very strong. We will charge directly and try to take down the city wall in one go.”
“Understood!”
With these 200 Golden Holy Lions, Qi Maosong now had the capital for a siege.
He waved his hand.
The Golden Holy Lions charged out, their battle cries deafening, startling the Lizardmen on the city wall.
“Enemy attack!”
“Enemy attack!”
The Lizardmen unit was instantly alerted. By the time they reacted, the Golden Holy Lion unit had already reached the city gates and was ramming them.
“It’s that woman’s troop type. Why is she suddenly attacking me?”
On the watchtower, Lu Yufan rushed out anxiously, his face extremely grim as he watched the scene before him.
Being in the same region, Lu Yufan naturally knew Li Siya.
He was also very clear about how strong that woman’s troop type was.
Their ground combat ability was almost invincible in this area; only another individual with a super strong troop talent could contend with her.
But it’s strange...
Weren’t they fiercely battling over a secret realm? How did she suddenly have time to attack me?
And why?!
Why are you attacking me?!
Lu Yufan couldn’t understand.
What on earth had he done to provoke this woman, to send a full 200 Golden Holy Lions to attack his territory?
When did this woman become so rich?
A full 200! Are you throwing all your territory’s strength into this fight?
Lu Yufan felt his scalp tingle.
He couldn’t figure it out.
But no matter why, defense was the most important thing right now.
Lu Yufan quickly recalled all the Lizardmen units from the front line and simultaneously sent a message to Sun Yaowu, asking him to send troops for support.
Within his territory, he was also frantically producing troops.
Lu Yufan gave a death order, telling the Lizardmen on the city wall to hold the line for at least two hours, until the front-line troops returned.
Upon his command, the front line immediately ceased its attack and withdrew.
Sun Yaowu, upon receiving the news, could only curse his bad luck under his breath. He urgently recalled the Ice Wyverns from the front line to return and first help Lu Yufan defend his territory.
“However, today’s objective has been achieved. That Dungeon Lord has probably expended a large amount of soul crystals.
It’s not too late to go and encircle that Dungeon Lord after we drive away these Golden Holy Lions.”
Sun Yaowu made his decision.
Inside the Resident Evil territory, seeing that the enemies had retreated, Chen Yu knew that Li Siya’s troops must have put immense pressure on the opponent, forcing them to withdraw.
This strategy of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao temporarily saved the territory from being besieged.
“But do they really think they can come and go as they please?” Chen Yu sneered.
He immediately ordered the Adventurers to pursue them.
At this moment, the battlefield situation immediately changed; offense and defense swapped, and the defending side became the attacking side.
Since Chen Yu’s side was no longer under threat, all Dungeons reopened.
Those who earned money earned money, and those who played played.
However, in this offensive and defensive battle, Chen Yu suffered a substantial loss of soul crystals.
This debt, the other party would surely have to repay with their lives.
Below the city walls of Lu Yufan’s castle, the Golden Holy Lion unit continued their relentless assault on the city walls.
Lu Yufan’s city defenses were well-built; he actually managed to hold out for two hours.
During these two hours, from the city gate to the city wall, everything was subjected to the relentless pounding of battering rams. By now, the city gate was precarious, on the verge of being breached.
However, at this moment, Lu Yufan’s front-line troops had also returned.
Dozens of Ice Wyverns were the first to appear in sight, attacking the Golden Holy Lion unit, their icy breath descending from the sky.
Following closely behind were hundreds of Lizardmen, forming formations and charging over.
With the main force returned, battle was imminent.
The Golden Holy Lion unit had already suffered many losses during the siege. Now, under attack from the rear, they suffered heavy casualties instantly.
Only a little over a hundred remained.
Such a casualty rate was extremely exaggerated for high-tier troops.
Seeing that the city wall was about to be taken, retreating now would not only be a wasted effort but also a complete failure.
Qi Maosong could only shout, “Keep charging! Don’t mind the troops behind us; take down the city gate first!”
The Golden Holy Lions, each fearless of death, displayed astonishing potential, charging towards the city gate.
Their roars of lions startled Lu Yufan on the watchtower, making his heart pound.
He hurriedly sent a message to Sun Yaowu, “Brother Sun, when will your reinforcements arrive? I can’t hold on much longer.”
“Stop shouting, they’re here,” Sun Yaowu replied impatiently. This time, he too had gone all out, expending a large amount of resources.
A flash of light emanated from the teleportation array.
Ice Wyverns flew out of the teleportation array, attacking the Golden Holy Lion unit at the city gate.
A full 50 of them, plus the 50 from the rear, made a total of 100 Ice Wyverns, along with seven to eight hundred Lizardmen.
With the enemy attacking from both front and rear, and having defensive terrain, the Golden Holy Lion unit instantly faced a huge disaster. Fierce icy breaths descended, immediately causing more than half their numbers to perish.
Qi Maosong couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
There was no other way.
It seemed he could only use that card.
