Chapter 49 The Moonlight Under the Full Moon: What Can an Army of Ten Thousand Horses Do?
Chapter 49 Under the full moon, what can a thousand troops do?
Just then, urgent shouts came from outside the carriage:
"Enemy attack! Everyone on alert!"
"Enemies? What enemies?" Leng Xiao looked bewildered.
You should know that the Moonlit Merchant Guild is renowned throughout the Demon Realm. Who doesn't know that the entire Moon Demon Clan stands behind them?
"It's for the food." Moonlight's purple eyes turned slightly cold, and her fingertips unconsciously crushed the crystal dragon eye in her hand.
"We transported too much grain back to the Demon Realm this time. The Demon Emperor doesn't concern himself with these trivial matters; what about the tribes below that are starving?"
She suddenly sneered, "I just didn't expect them to act so quickly. It seems there's a traitor among the caravan's higher-ups."
"Have they gone mad?" Leng Xiao stared wide-eyed in disbelief. "Sister Yue, you're the Moon Demon Princess, the current Moon Night Witch! Aren't they afraid of the Moon Demon Clan's revenge?"
“Silly girl,” Yueye shook her head with a wry smile, “What would the starving demons care about? In their eyes, no matter how terrible the revenge of my Moon Demon Clan is, it is not as bad as the death of our clansmen who are about to starve to death right now.”
She gave Leng Xiao a meaningful look, "Even if you go out now and say that you are the little princess of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan, they will just ignore you."
“I…” Leng Xiao opened her mouth, gritted her teeth, and said, “I want to see which tribe dares to rob our caravan!”
……
Moonlight keenly noticed the commotion outside, and her brows furrowed slightly.
He gently shook Cai'er, who was fast asleep in his arms: "Cai'er, wake up, something's wrong."
"Hmm," Cai'er rubbed her eyes groggily, but instantly woke up when she heard the word "enemy."
With a flick of her wrist, the dark gold dagger was already quietly in her palm, its cold light gleaming.
Yuehui chuckled and ruffled her fluffy hair from sleeping: "Don't be nervous, I'm here. Let's go out and check the situation first."
...
As Yuehui stepped out of the carriage, the night was already deep, with only a bright moon hanging high in the dark sky.
As the cool moonlight shone down, he could clearly feel the spiritual energy within his body stirring, and a faint burning sensation emanated from between his brows.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Long Haochen and the other team members quickly gathered around.
Moonlight calmly surveyed the surroundings: "Let's observe the situation first, but everyone should prepare for battle."
He emphasized, "Lu Xi, Han Yu, remember not to cast healing magic on anyone in the caravan."
"Understood!" everyone responded in unison.
Sudden--
call out!
A blinding white light shot into the sky from the front of the caravan, exploding in the night sky and transforming into a huge white flower of light.
As soon as the white light appeared, the entire caravan instantly went into a state of combat readiness.
All the coachmen skillfully maneuvered the carriages, and the more than two hundred wagons moved with ease, quickly forming a huge circular defensive formation.
More than five hundred armored guards appeared around the convoy, their armor radiating a magical aura.
At first, there was only a slight tremor in the ground, but this tremor quickly turned into a heart-stopping roar.
Under the moonlight, a large number of dark shadows suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, surging towards the caravan like a tide.
The shadow spread extremely quickly, covering the entire field in the blink of an eye.
"It's a demon army!" Wang Yuanyuan's pupils shrank sharply, her voice exceptionally clear in the night wind: "At least ten thousand!"
At the forefront were approximately five thousand dual-wielding demons, led by more than ten emerald green dual-wielding demons, charging forward at breakneck speed.
Behind them, the Rook stalkers appeared and disappeared like ghosts—
These demons, skilled in underground raids, pose the greatest threat to the vehicle formation. Once they infiltrate the interior, the entire defense system will collapse instantly.
What's even more chilling is that, under the moonlight, you can see the massive, dark mass of the demon army behind you.
Hundreds of flying demons with fleshy wings have taken to the air, their sharp cries piercing the night sky like the horns of death.
"Commander, what should we do now?" Han Yu gripped the heavy black shield tightly, his voice steady but tinged with tension.
Yuehui slightly raised her gaze, looking at the graceful figure on the tallest carriage, and said calmly, "Wait! It's not our turn to make a move in the first wave of attacks."
Standing atop the carriage in the moonlight, the night wind ruffling her robes, the bright red command flag in her hand standing out starkly against the moonlight. She calmly watched the surging demon army until the very moment the twin-wielding demon at the forefront stepped into her attack range—
"Shh!"
The red flag suddenly changed from being held high to being pointed forward, a movement as sharp as a knife!
“Buzz——!!!”
The next instant, a powerful symphony of war roared into action!
The mechanisms sprang to life, the bowstrings vibrated, and thousands of streaks of light shot out from the chariot formation, like a dazzling meteor shower.
From each carriage, eleven arrows shot out into the air—ten thin arrows like a torrential downpour, and one thick arrow like a thunderbolt piercing the sky!
Even more chilling is that each arrow is surrounded by a different magical glow, some wreathed in flames, some frozen in frost, and some crackling with electricity...
(Magic arrows?! And... every single one of them?!)
Moonlight's pupils contracted slightly, and she gasped.
(My sister is so rich!)
"boom--!!!"
The moment the arrows rained down, the demon vanguard was torn apart like fragile pieces of paper!
Whether it was an ordinary dual-wielding demon or an emerald-green dual-wielding demon, under this devastating attack, they didn't even have time to scream before turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Limbs and severed arms flew everywhere, and demonic blood splattered on the ground. The originally fierce charging formation was cleared out in the blink of an eye, creating a terrifying vacuum zone!
The entire wagon formation resembled a sophisticated war machine, rapidly operating under the drivers' skillful manipulation. The heavy axles of the horse-drawn carriages emitted a deep, rumbling sound as each wagon turned head-on—
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The magic arrow shot through the air, precise and deadly.
Moonbeam's companions stood in the center of the formation, watching the scene before them, feeling their hands and feet turn icy cold, and even their breath caught in their throats.
—That's an army of tens of thousands of demons!
But after the chariot formation circled once, this fierce demon vanguard was almost completely wiped out!
The ground was piled high with corpses, demonic blood soaked the soil, and the air was filled with a heavy, rusty stench.
Only the astute Kru clan stalkers, who burrowed underground before the arrow rain began, managed to escape unscathed.
However, the killings did not stop.
In the distant sky, the demonic flying forces had just approached when they encountered the same ferocious attack.
A blazing magical arrow pierced the bat's wing, followed by a series of wails and the sound of it falling.
The demon reinforcements that followed were also torn apart by the intense firepower, with flesh and blood flying everywhere and limbs splattering.
The night wind, carrying the pungent smell of blood, swept in, making one's stomach churn and almost vomit.
"Lu Xi, activate the Eye of Truth!" Moonlight's purple eyes suddenly lit up, its eerie light burning like a cold flame in the night. "The rest of you—lock onto the Kru clan stalkers underground, don't let a single one escape!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already drawn the Thunderclap Sword with a backhand motion, its blade crackling with violent purple lightning, and plunged it fiercely into the ground—
"boom--!!!"
Lightning bolts, like a raging dragon plunging into the abyss, poured wildly into the ground along the sword's blade.
In an instant, blinding lightning suddenly burst forth from the ground within a radius of nearly a hundred meters, centered on the sword's edge!
The soil churned and exploded, and electric snakes danced wildly.
The Kru clan lurking underground didn't even have time to scream before being reduced to charred remains by the ravages of lightning.
The smell of burning mixed with the earthy odor rose up, while the lightning, still flickering on the ground, reflected the cold, austere profile of the moonlight.
He slowly raised his eyes, purple lightning swirling in his pupils, his voice carrying the lingering power of thunder, reverberating across the surrounding area—
"Now that the Moon Demon has appeared..."
"Why don't you worship?!"
By the way, regarding yesterday's scene where Cai'er uses her lap as a pillow, the author finally found a picture and has already posted it in chapter 46.
