Chapter 87: Indomitable Battle Spirit

Chapter 87: Indomitable Battle Spirit

The God of Magic Beixi’s distrust was less a challenge to Yu Sheng’an and more a reflection of her concern for Edga.

After all, Edga was her shepherded city.

If it fell, the Keville Empire would lose a city—but she would lose everything she had!

“I have no certainty of victory. That is, after all, the God of War,” Yu Sheng’an said frankly. “But if Edga is lost, I will compensate you with a commercial capital! Prepare the portals and evacuate the people.”

His words stunned Beixi.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately recognized the gravity of the situation and could only nod with difficulty.

Yu Sheng’an swept his solemn gaze over the others. “If we cling to the land and lose the people, we lose both. If we preserve the people and lose the land, we regain both. If the city cannot be held, I have only one demand: evacuate the people.”

The others exchanged glances before nodding gravely.

After assigning combat duties, they delved into tactical details.

Though the Keville Empire had suffered heavy losses under the sudden assault of the Five Great Righteous Gods, losing two cities, the rapid information transmission of the internet had allowed the City of Magic to react swiftly.

Countless civilians had heeded the warnings in time and retreated into the cities.

This left the scattered undead legions, immortal legions, and even the God of War’s forces—who had infiltrated the empire’s territories to scavenge supplies and disrupt Keville’s mobilization—with nothing to seize.

Building on this, Yu Sheng’an urgently upgraded the Internet Social Platform, launching the [wartime system] to enhance information sharing and communication during the conflict.

Before they could discuss further, Beixi’s expression abruptly changed. “The God of War is attacking again. I must oversee the battlefront. Take care, everyone!”

She paused, her gaze lingering on Yu Sheng’an’s face. “I’ll be waiting for you.”

With that, her magic projection vanished.

Yu Sheng’an’s expression darkened. “I’m heading there now. Take care, all of you.”

Dandell and Qimoer rose together, pressing a hand to their chests in salute.

Kexian did the same, though he couldn’t resist calling out, “Mr. Ajef, please protect Keville!”

Yu Sheng’an nodded before his figure abruptly disappeared from the Forbidden Gods Meeting Room.

The next moment, he materialized silently beside Beixi atop Edga’s city walls.

The God of Magic had no time to greet him. Clutching a dragon bone staff in her right hand, she stared coldly and tensely beyond the city.

Outside the magical shield enveloping Edga, countless soldiers stood in disciplined formations, bare-chested and armed with spears, blades, and axes, marching in unison toward the city.

At a glance, their numbers were overwhelming—like a tidal wave of steel and fury, an unstoppable force bearing down upon them.

“Courage!”

A thunderous roar swept across the battlefield.

“Courage!”

The God of War’s legions echoed the cry. In an instant, Battle Aura erupted from the soldiers, intertwining into a raging tempest that surged like a tsunami.

This was the power of battle auras!

“Fearlessness!”

Another deafening bellow.

“Fearlessness!”

The unified roar shook the heavens as Battle Aura spiraled upward, twisting and coiling like a storm.

“Glory!”

A final, earth-shattering command.

“Glory!”

The ten-thousand-strong formation merged into one. The seething Battle Aura coalesced, forming towering giants dozens of meters tall—Battle Spirit Giants!

In an instant, Yu Sheng'an's mind wavered, as if he were not facing countless soldiers but a towering, indomitable God of War whose aura blazed across the heavens!

"Morale unquenched, Battle Spirit undying."

Even Beixi, who had witnessed this scene before, trembled with awe, her eyes shaking as she murmured to herself.

"Born for glory!"

"Dead for honor!"

Amid the roars, the God of War's army erupted into a frenzy, shaking the heavens and earth as they charged toward Edga!

The ground trembled, mountains and rivers seeming to shatter.

In the blink of an eye, the tide-like army crashed against the magical shield!

"ROAR!"

The Battle Spirit Giants, materialized from morale, bellowed as they swung their myriad weapons, smashing them against the magical shield.

With just the first strike, the shield instantly shuddered.

"Attack!"

The God of Magic, Beixi, raised her dragon bone staff and issued the command!

In that moment, countless mages atop the city walls lifted their staves and unleashed their magic.

In that moment, countless magic missiles, hailstorms, water dragons, heat rays, and elemental puppets poured forth like a torrential downpour, raining down beyond the city.

The God of Magic, Beixi, surged with mana!

[Mountain Cracking Earth Splitting]

Instantly, beyond the magical shield, the land for miles split apart, fissures of death yawning open like the maws of gluttonous demons, cackling as they devoured countless soldiers.

Yet at that moment, several Battle Spirits abruptly disintegrated, flowing like quicksand into the chasms, lifting the falling soldiers to safety.

Even more fearless Battle Spirits surged forward to meet the devastating magic!

A large portion of the massive magical assault was forcibly intercepted by the Battle Spirit Giants.

At this moment, Yu Sheng'an felt like an outsider.

His pupils dilated as he watched, finally understanding why the God of War was renowned across the multiverse for his combat prowess!

Among the myriad cultivation systems, Battle Aura was the easiest to begin.

But while entry was simple, mastery was difficult.

This meant that warriors rarely became high-tier forces on the battlefield!

Even the rare Martial Saints or Martial Gods, one in ten thousand, were trump cards not easily deployed!

Compared to mages—with their flesh avatars, puppet avatars, magical shields, dark restraints, Void traversal, earth protections, and countless other techniques—warriors had only their blades.

If they failed to kill in a single strike, they were easily countered and slain by mages.

Yet the God of War, wielding the authority of war, had carved out his fearsome reputation through the courage of warriors!

As Yu Sheng'an observed, over time, the morale of the Battle Spirit army soared, and countless Battle Spirit Giants merged into one, forming a colossal titan over a hundred zhang tall—towering even above Edga's magical shield.

The God of Magic, Beixi, looked up at this giant, her gentle feminine features hardening in an instant.

She stared fixedly at the titan.

Slowly, the giant raised its massive axe and, under the terrified gazes of countless onlookers, brought it down like a thunderous eagle's strike!

"CRACK!"

A crisp sound rang out.

The magical shield split apart.

"GLORY!"

A frenzied roar erupted from the God of War's army as countless soldiers, eyes bloodshot, surged forward.

And in that very moment, the God of Magic, Beixi, uttered a low command:

"Void!"

In an instant, Edga shuddered—and the endless soldiers surrounding it vanished!

No, the soldiers surging into the range of the magical shield did not vanish.

It turned out that the God of Magic, Beixi, had virtualized the entire city!

"Kill them all!" Beixi roared.

Then she closed her eyes, silent and motionless, like a statue.

She had to maintain the virtualization of the entire city while simultaneously restarting the magical shield.

Dozens of magic knights and attendants tightly guarded the God of Magic, Beixi.

Their vigilant eyes scanned their surroundings, allowing no one to approach—not even Yu Sheng'an.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

After roughly five breaths, the world suddenly brightened.

Edga returned to reality, and the pale blue magical shield reappeared.

Outside the city, the dark tide of soldiers still brimmed with high morale, but the hundred-zhang-tall Battle Spirit Giant had vanished. Even the dozens of ten-zhang-tall Battle Spirit Giants had significantly dwindled in number.

"Woo—"

A low horn sound echoed from the distance.

The warriors, who had been fearless moments ago, now retreated in disciplined formation, like the ebbing tide.

"Haa…" The God of Magic, Beixi, exhaled deeply, her forehead slick with cold sweat.

"The God of War’s army truly lives up to its reputation!" Yu Sheng'an watched the receding black tide, his pupils trembling, his palms clammy.

"Indeed, and these were merely helot cannon fodder. I can’t even imagine how terrifying the true God of War’s elite forces would be!"

Beixi gazed at the lingering skirmishes beneath the city walls, her face etched with lingering fear.

Helot cannon fodder?

In an instant, Yu Sheng'an’s spine turned to ice, his entire body chilled to the core.
