Douluo Dalu: Tiger Roars in the Universe

Chapter 77: Night Attack
Dai Yaochen thought about sending out fifty disciples of the Min clan to investigate the situation first, so as to make some preparations for the subsequent suppression of the wolf bandits. But who knew that not long after, several disciples of the Min clan came back.

“Your Highness!” The leading disciple of the Min clan hurriedly returned to the central army tent without even taking a breath, and hurriedly reported, “According to investigation, there are not only wolf bandits in Xingchen Gorge, but also a large number of Swift Wind Demon Wolves. They suddenly gathered and have already killed their way to the valley entrance, and will arrive soon!”

Dai Yaochen was a little surprised when he heard this report, but he did not hesitate at all. He stood up from his seat as the commander-in-chief and ordered, "Pass my order, all troops gather and prepare for battle!"

"Yes!" The generals in the tent immediately accepted the order and left quickly to gather their own troops. Soon, Dai Yaochen was the only one left in the huge central military tent.

His eyes swept across the empty central military tent, and Dai Yaochen suddenly fell into deep thought.

He had just asked the generals about the situation and learned that there had been no movement from the Wolf Bandits since they were blocked in Xingchen Gorge. How come the Wolf Bandits launched an attack as soon as he led his troops here today?
Even if the wolf bandits themselves possess a certain degree of human intelligence, they are more bloodthirsty. If they wanted to attack the army, they would have done it long ago. How could it be so coincidental as now? It was as if they were waiting for him to come here before launching the attack. There seemed to be too many human traces here.

Moreover, in the previous intelligence, there had always been only wolf bandits, so how come there were suddenly a large number of Swift Wind Demon Wolves? It seemed that these Swift Wind Demon Wolves were also hidden in advance.

Dai Yaochen was originally skeptical about whether there was a mastermind behind the scenes, but the sudden situation now made him basically certain.

"The mastermind behind this?" Dai Yaochen narrowed his eyes. "I want to see who is behind this..."

When Dai Yaochen was thinking this, the curtain of the central army tent was suddenly lifted, and Dugu Yan ran in with Zhu Zhuqing: "Dai Yaochen, are we going to fight?!"

"Yes." Dai Yaochen nodded. "A large group of wolf bandits and wind wolves have rushed out of Xingchen Gorge and are about to attack our camp. It's getting late now, and it's not suitable for a big battle. I plan to reorganize the army to repel their attack this time, and then wipe them out the next day."

Because he sensed the existence of the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was now dark, Dai Yaochen did not plan to eat these wolf thieves directly. Instead, to be on the safe side, he repelled them first.

"These wolf bandits all deserve to die!" Dugu Yan thought of the tragic scenes of the two villages and towns he had passed by before, and could not help but grit his teeth and said, "I must kill a few more later!"

"Don't be impulsive. These wolf bandits will definitely be wiped out in the end." Dai Yaochen said, and then said, "Come on, follow me out to check the situation first."

Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing nodded, and immediately followed Dai Yaochen out of the central military tent.

The quality of the Xingluo Empire's army is still very good. At this time, all the soldiers in the army have been assembled, and some of them have climbed onto the camp wall under the leadership of commanders at all levels.

In addition to the soldiers defending the camp walls, tens of thousands of soldiers left the camp and were on high alert facing the direction of Xingchen Gorge.

This camp had only been built a few days ago. Although it was relatively solid, it certainly could not withstand the massive bombardment of a large number of wolf bandits and wind wolves. Therefore, apart from the necessary troops left to guard the camp, almost all the other troops had left.

Only by relying on field battles can we repel the attacks of the wolf bandits and the wind wolves.

Dai Yaochen also came to the front of the formation with the two women. It is no exaggeration to say that among all the people present, his mental power should be the strongest, so Dai Yaochen could vaguely see the billowing smoke and dust in the distance. Soon, thousands of wolf thieves and wind demon wolves came into his sight.

The wolf bandits look extremely strong, each one is over two meters tall, with gray hair all over their bodies, and they look like savages, except for their exposed canine teeth, which are several times larger than those of ordinary people, indicating their identity as wolf bandits.

The Swift Wind Demon Wolf is a normal wolf-shaped soul beast with green hair all over its body. Because it walks on all fours, it seems to be smaller than the Wolf Bandits who stand on two feet. However, if you look down, you can find that the body length of these Swift Wind Demon Wolves is actually more than two meters, which is not inferior to the Wolf Bandits at all.

At this time, these numerous Wolf Thieves and Wind Demon Wolves were running towards Dai Yaochen with bloodthirsty and crazy intentions. Dai Yaochen could see that as the distance got closer, blue light appeared on the bodies of these Wolf Thieves and Wind Demon Wolves, which was a precursor to releasing skills.

Seeing this scene, Dai Yaochen did not dare to delay and quickly issued an order: "Yu clan, move forward to defend!"

Dai Yaochen used his soul power to spread his voice, so the people of the Yu clan heard his order directly. They immediately stepped forward a few steps and stood in a row under the leadership of Niu Ben.

Because of their martial spirits, the disciples of the Yu clan are all very strong. Coupled with the swollen bodies possessed by their martial spirits and the blessing of soul skills, at first glance they seem to be a solid barrier.

Just after Niu Ben of the Yu clan and fifty disciples formed a solid barrier, the attacks from the wolf thieves and the wind wolf arrived. Countless green wind blades burst out, and for a moment, it seemed to illuminate the night into green, and a large number of wind blades swept towards the army.

If the walls of Dai Yaochen and his men's camp were subjected to such a large-scale wind blade attack, they would definitely not be able to withstand it. However, the solid barrier formed by the disciples of the Yu clan seemed to be unshakable under the bombardment of the wind blades, and firmly blocked this terrifying attack.

This time, the Siji Sect really gave face to Dai Yaochen. The two hundred disciples they sent out were all Four-Ring Soul Sect members. Because the Siji Sect has been developing a single attribute to the extreme, these Four-Ring Soul Sect members can rival the Six-Ring Soul Emperors in the areas they are good at, let alone other things.

Now, this solid barrier formed by the disciples of the Yu clan can be seen as fifty strong men whose defense is comparable to that of a six-ring Soul Emperor jointly resisting the attack. Although there are a lot of wind blades, they are only emitted by the Wolf Thieves and Wind Demon Wolves whose strength is almost the same as that of level 20 or 30 Soul Masters. It is naturally no problem for the Yu clan to resist them.

Seeing that the Yu Clan successfully blocked the wind blade attack of the Wolf Bandits and the Wind Wolf, Dai Yaochen was satisfied, but he did not relax at all. He immediately said to Dugu Yan beside him: "It's up to you from now on."
