Chapter 818: Each Shows Their Skills

These ghost-corpse king souls were almost useless for destroying buildings and battlefield machinery, but their suppressive effect on enemy soldiers was unparalleled by any other force.

"My ace legion's most significant characteristic is its absolute obedience to my will! In other words, as long as I don't fall, these ghost-corpse king souls can hardly be instantly annihilated by successive waves of enemy fire. As long as they can hold their ground firmly on the main battlefield, they can act as versatile warrior-tanks, greatly conserving our side's living forces. I wonder if this trump card of mine is substantial enough!"

As Cyrille's voice faded from the void, hundreds of ghost-corpse king soul warriors in the front row charged into the Twin City's enforcer ranks. In just one encounter, hundreds of enforcer warriors in the front bled from all seven orifices, let out hysterical screams of agony, and ultimately perished.

From start to finish, these individuals displayed no significant combat power, perishing without resistance like puppets manipulated by these ghosts.

"My goodness, what a formidable Wizard Alliance! If all your subordinates are this powerful, I doubt many teams in the Northern Domain, let alone the other major domains, could defeat you, Lord Cyrille!"

Hearing the compliments from the other major alliance leaders, old Cyrille burst into laughter, then quickly waved his hand, feigning modesty.

"I told you guys to stop teasing me. While this legion of mine is incredibly strong in positional warfare, it also has a significant drawback: its movement speed is too slow. Once these warriors fall outside my magical control, they will become endlessly passive and difficult to manage! Furthermore, my mental energy has limits; controlling thousands of ghost-corpse souls simultaneously is already my maximum."

After another round of mutual flattery, Cyrille, having fully established his presence, descended from the void with a triumphant expression. He lightly shook his staff, and the spectral warriors quickly vanished from the battlefield. It was unfortunate for the Twin City enforcers who had participated in the demonstration; hundreds of them perished senselessly.

"Alright, only you remain, Lord Decasi. When will you show us your orc legion?"

However, Decasi was the most taciturn and eccentric among the four major figures present. He had barely spoken or interacted with the other leaders throughout the event.

Upon hearing the command from the Twin City Lord, the Northern Domain's Alliance Leader, he did not delay. He slowly stood up and clasped his fist in greeting towards the Twin City Lord.

"Alliance Leader, you may not know this, but my orc legion cannot be demonstrated here. Only on the battlefield, when their true bloodlust erupts, can they unleash their full power. I cannot promise much to you all, but I have brought a full ten thousand orc legionnaires this time. I guarantee that with this force, we can eliminate more than half of the Holy Fire Alliance's enforcer teams. This is my pledge to you: if I fail to achieve this number, I will not retreat a single step from the battlefield prematurely."

Observing Decasi's serious expression, the three major figures, including the Twin City Lord, did not press him further and nodded solemnly.

"Alright, now that we've all concluded our demonstrations, Boss Wushuang, it's time to see the ultimate power you've prepared for this battle!"

The Twin City Lord burst into hearty laughter, slowly stood up, and fixed his gaze on a hidden spot to the northwest. All the major figures present turned their heads to look, only to see a magnificently dressed, dignified and elegant middle-aged woman emerge.

"This is the strongest trump card I've prepared for this endeavor. I wonder if you are satisfied?"

Upon seeing the dignified woman approach, the leaders of the major alliances immediately knelt on one knee, bowed, and clasped their fists. Their reverence was far greater than what they had shown to the Twin City Lord.

"We greet Your Royal Highness!"

Without a doubt, this dignified and beautiful woman was the Twin City Lord's wife, and the Twin City lineage's greatest ace as the head of the Northern Domain.

After all, the entire Yingzhou Continent belonged to the Imperial Family. With the Third Princess herself present, who would dare to disrespect her?

"Perhaps you are not yet aware, but I am a Celestial Warrior. This time, my Twin City requires no additional soldiers beyond the fifty thousand enforcers. My husband and I alone, fighting together, will be enough. No matter how powerful the opponent, with that gifted individual leading them, we have nothing to fear."

As expected, the Twin City Lord's move was exceptionally ingenious.

It perfectly concealed the Twin City's true underlying military strength while simultaneously aweing everyone present into submission.

As the saying goes, behind every successful man is a crucial woman, and this was perfectly exemplified by the Twin City Lord.

It turned out that not only did he rely on his wife to establish his family and career, but even in terms of cultivation and foundation, he was far inferior to his distinguished wife.

"Alright, now that our three hundred thousand strong army has assembled, we will depart precisely in three hours. This time, we have only one objective: to annihilate the entire Holy Fire Alliance, seize all their resources, and completely erase their lineage from the continent!"

"Understood!"

At that moment, the Twin City's mighty army marched grandly towards the Holy Fire Alliance's temporary capital, where Xu Yang was located. Their momentum was immense, almost unimaginable.

Moreover, along the way, they stopped at several allied city-states, incidentally gathering over fifty thousand "volunteer troops." These so-called volunteers were merely lower-ranked alliances from the Northern Domain seizing the opportunity to curry favor with the Twin City Lord, serving as vanguard pawns and sycophants to gain some recognition.

However, in the Twin City Lord's mind, if the Holy Fire Alliance were annihilated, these subservient, low-ranking alliance forces would have no right to share the spoils of war with the major figures.

Meanwhile, Xu Yang's camp remained calm and orderly. Perhaps it was precisely because Xu Yang, their absolute leader, was personally overseeing things that the warriors, from top to bottom, showed no signs of panic.

Everyone knew that with Xu Yang present, no matter how many enemies came, victory in the war would surely belong to the Holy Fire Alliance.

This was the positive influence a powerful leader had on his soldiers!

That sense of security was not something that could be merely talked up; everyone had witnessed Xu Yang's incredible power on the battlefield. They even believed that even if the Holy Fire Alliance clashed with the Imperial Family now, the Holy Fire Alliance might not necessarily be at a disadvantage.
