Chapter 781 – A Night of Loss, Two Choices

Zhao Hai was currently sitting inside the Space looking at the state of the Demons and the Divine Race. He didn't know whether the Demons or the Divine Race would retreat or not.

Zhao Hai knew that tonight's attack would be regarded as the largest attack he'd made to both the Demons and the Divine Race. With the mosquitoes and the cavalry attacking together, Zhao Hai believed that the damages caused this evening wouldn't be small.

However, Zhao Hai's work was actually much easier this time. He just had the javelins and other supplies dropped off on a single place not far from the camps of both the Demons and the Divine Race. The amount that he took out was more than enough. Even if the cavalry and the undead attack non-stop, the supply wouldn't run out.

What Zhao Hai wanted to see was the reactions of the two parties when it came to the blood devouring mosquitoes. What he saw was interesting, both Demons and Divine Race knew about the mosquitoes, this confused him.

Originally, Zhao Hai thought that the blood devouring mosquitoes were native to the Ark Continent. But when he saw the Divine Race say the name of the blood devouring mosquitoes, he knew that they also existed in the Divine Realm. Moreover, they even had the same name.

More surprisingly, the Demons also knew about the mosquitoes. However, their name was different, they called the mosquitoes devil mosquitoes. This made Zhao Hai curious. He knew that the Demon Realm had an environment completely different compared to the Ark Continent and the Divine Realm. Moreover, even though the Demon Realm had variant versions of the Ark Continent's magic beasts, Zhao Hai can tell from the Demon Dragon King's words that the blood devouring mosquitoes and the devil mosquitoes were the same.

The blood devouring mosquitoes existed in three realms, what does this mean? Zhao Hai couldn't help but frown, he planned to study it when there is time.

Zhao Hai didn't want any more trouble. At this time, Zhao Hai had a constant sense of crisis. Not to talk about the Demons and the Divine Race, the appearance of the immortal cultivator made Zhao Hai look seriously into his current state.

The strange circumstance circulating the blood devouring mosquitoes made Zhao Hai think of his problems. He wanted to see if the mosquitoes also had a connection in the immortal cultivation realm.

As Zhao Hai was juggling his thoughts, the Demons and the Divine Race were continuing their heated war against the blood devouring mosquitoes. The Demons had a bigger loss this time. The Demon army had 8th ranks among their numbers. After being subjected to hundreds of mosquito attacks, these 8th ranks simply didn't have any chance to escape. In the end, most of them chose to blow themselves up.

When faced with ordinary blood devouring mosquitoes, this move might be very useful. However, the mosquitoes that they faced belonged to Zhao Hai's Space. When these mosquitoes die, they just be resurrected. The sacrifice made by the Demons were made utterly useless.

Majority of the Demon deaths were 8th ranks, but this still satisfied Zhao Hai. The 8th rank Demons were still quite a threat. Although they might not be a match against the Ark Continent's 9th rank soldiers, their self-explosions were still very lethal.

But even then, the undead and the cavalry units were still able to bring damages to the two parties. Although the javelins would kill some mosquitoes, the consequence was not that heavy. After all, the mosquitoes can be released once more after 24 hours, so Zhao Hai wasn't hurt too much about the collateral damage.

The battle lasted the entire night. The Divine Race's losses had reached an astonishing 300 thousand. Meanwhile, the Demons lost more than 500 thousand troops. It can be said that the damages were quite heavy. When dawn came, the number of mosquitoes have been reduced by a certain degree, only stragglers here and there remained. At the same time, Zhao Hai also ordered the undead and the cavalry units to retreat.

After the Demons and the Divine Race counted their losses, their expressions weren't too good. Thunder Yun immediately convened the generals inside his room, he looked at them and said, "It seems like Zhao Hai has yet to eradicate the barbarians and the winged pegasus armies. Otherwise, he would have sent them last night, causing us even more losses. This is the second batch of mosquitoes that Zhao Hai had sent in two days. It has become obvious that the mosquitoes are under the Ark Continent's control. Zhao Hai might not be the one controlling them, but we can be sure that someone from the continent can. We'll return to the Radiant Empire for now. We need to ask for ways to repel those mosquitoes. Otherwise, we will have even more casualties."

The group naturally wouldn't oppose to this, but Cloud Ying couldn't help but say, "I think we need to send word towards the Barbarian and Winged Pegasus clans. Make it known to them that their kin has been killed. Even if Zhao Hai didn't completely wipe them out, he still managed to kill some number of them, the two clans would still send some elites over. At the same time, when the repellants for the mosquitoes arrive, we can resume our attack on the Ark Continent. At that time, I will personally shred Zhao Hai."

Cloud Ying shared this sentiment with the other Divine Race generals. In the many conquests that the Divine Race had in the lower realms, this was the first time that they had lost this much. Although they had lost a lot back in the God of Thunder's Realm, the losses to the other party was much more. But this time, the Ark Continent barely lost anyone. To the arrogant Divine Race, this was a completely unacceptable situation.

Thunder Yun looked at the group and said, "Send this order. Rest for two hours, after that, we return to the Radiant Empire. We don't want to get entangled with the undead any longer."

The group all nodded before they turned and left.

After the others walked out, Thunder Yun relaxed. He turned his head to Fei'er and said, "Fei;er, have you noticed something strange with those blood devouring mosquitoes?"

Fei'er' had a confused expression as he said, "Strange? Aren't they just the normal blood devouring mosquitoes? Although they are stronger than the ones in the Divine Realm, they aren't very numerous."

Thunder Yun smiled and said, "You don't think that those mosquitoes aren't a lot? The blood devouring mosquitoes that we met last time are obviously not the same as the ones we met today. Why is this?"

Fei'er looked puzzled at Thunder Yun, "Master, to be honest, I didn't notice it."

Thunder Yun smiled bitterly and said, "I can't blame you, not everyone noticed it. The Ark Continent's blood devouring mosquitoes can regenerate. Moreover, it seems like instant regeneration. The number of times seem to surpass 25!"

When Fei'er heard Thunder Yun, he couldn't help but stare. His complexion changed as she said, "Regeneration? Master, those mosquitoes can regenerate? How is that possible? If those mosquitoes are that terrifying, then the Ark Continent would have been completely eradicated by now."

Thunder Yun smiled faintly and said, "It's true. I observed those mosquitoes closely and reached this conclusion. It doesn't matter matter how the Ark Continent managed to control them, the important thing is that those mosquitoes aren't good news. We must be more careful from now on."

Fei'er nodded and didn't say anything. At this time, the camp outside had regained its peace. Thunder Yun gave out a sigh and said, "Alright, you go and take a rest. Don't forget, we need to retreat in two hours."

Fei'er nodded, then he walked out. But after he walked out, Fei'er looked back at Thunder Yun's room before a flash of light appeared on his eyes. It seems like he was thinking about something that Thunder Yun didn't know about.

The Demons had a fairly similar situation as the Divine Race. They had lost almost twice as much as the Divine Race. For an army of several tens of millions, this number might not be strong. However, the circumstance of the deaths made the difference. In just one night, the Demons had lost seven hundred thousand troops. This was something unfathomable even to the Demon Dragon King.

The Demon Dragon King was currently inside his room, thinking about whether he would make a retreat or not. They had lost too many people just this evening. Although majority of the deaths were 8th ranks, the number was just too much. If the Demons weren't hardened fighters, then some Demons might have deserted the army.

The Demon Dragon King was frowning as he sat there. This loss was something that he couldn't ignore. The more worrying matter was the possibility that the Ark Continent's people were controlling the devil mosquitoes.

After pondering about it for some time, the Demon Dragon King decided to hold the retreat for now. They would advance in steady steps. He knew that even if they were to retreat, the Ark Continent's people would still go on and harass them. When the time comes, not only would they gain nothing, they would even be forced to be in a passive situation.

However, this didn't mean that they didn't need support. The Demon Dragon King already sent people back to the Demon Realm to report on the Demon Army's state. At the same time, he asked the troops back at their base to make some repellents against the mosquitoes.

In the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm, their description of the mosquitoes was different from the Ark Continent. In the continent, the mosquitoes were just a one-time disaster. After they were eliminated, they didn't pop out once more. Therefore, the mosquitoes only existed in the Ark Continent's writings.

However, mosquitoes were a constant disaster in the Demon and the Divine Realm. Therefore, research had been made in order to deal with them. It was only because they didn't expect to see mosquitoes in the Ark Continent that the Demons and the Divine Race didn't bring any repellents.

Chapter 782 – What Zhao Hai Doesn't Know

Zhao Hai calmly looked at the monitor. He didn't think that the Divine Race would retreat, it was actually out of his expectations. Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare when he saw the Divine Rest pack their things and heading the opposite direction after their two hour rest. Seeing them retreat, Zhao Hai decided to not send the undead after them. It was best to give more time to Lizzy and Megan. As long as the two women had time, they can completely eliminate the winged pegasus cavalry. When that time comes, Zhao Hai's strength would dramatically increase. Also, after seeing the Divine Race retreat, Zhao Hai can now focus solely on the Demons.

Zhao Hai needed time, he wanted the Demons to retreat as well. If the Demons retreat, then Zhao Hai would gain even more time. The first batch of God ranked undead have already finished and the pagoda had started with the second batch. At the same time, another God-rank potion was on the way. As long as there was time, Zhao Hai's side would become much better.

But to Zhao Hai's disappointment, the Demons didn’t retreat. Unlike the Divine Race who retreated after resting for two hours, the Demons rested for 5 hours before leaving Rising Sun City, pushing forward into the Buddha Empire.

After seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but knit his brows. His expectation for the Demon Army's retreat was even more than the Divine Race seeing how cautious they had been lately. But who would've thought that the opposite happened, the Divine Race retreated while the Demons pushed on.

While looking at the Demon Army, Zhao Hai coldly snorted. He was still monitoring the Divine Race, however, he didn't send more attacks. He wanted the Divine Race to retreat, and he didn't want to enrage them even more. He was afraid that the Divine Race would get angry and reverse their decision. After all, when enough time passes, Zhao Hai would be able to clean them up in one fell swoop.

On the other hand, the Demons actually went forward. In two days, they would meet with Lizzy and Megan's group, and that wouldn't be good.

Now that the Divine Race was gone, Zhao Hai can reallocated his undead to deal with the Demons. These undead made the Demon advance even more difficult. They needed to delay the Demons and make time for Lizzy and Megan to eliminate the winged pegasus cavalry.

After the Demons left Rising Sun City, Zhao Hai noticed that they had left some people behind. Zhao Hai immediately knew that the Demon advance this time was meant to occupy the Buddha Empire's cities.

Altogether, the Demons have left 1 million troops inside Rising Sun City, a thousand of them being God-rank experts. At the same time, a constant stream of Demons can be seen going from Demon City to Rising Sun City.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai's expression couldn't help but change. With his current resources, he wouldn't be able to reclaim Rising Sun City. If he decided to attack the city, the Demons from Demon City will go forward as support. When that time comes, a clash would happen, this wasn't something that Zhao Hai wanted.

However, Zhao Hai wasn't too worried. After all, he didn't have much power in his hands. As soon as Lizzy and Megan finishes their action, the majority of the undead would be available once more.

The Demon Dragon King had discovered that their current assailants didn't comprise of only cavalry units, there were undead mixed in as well. These undead were very difficult to deal with. The bows and throwing weapons that the Demons had were less lethal to the undead. On the other hand, the javelins thrown by the undead were a huge threat to the Demon Army.

To be honest, the Demon Dragon King was quite curious about Zhao Hai's javelins. In their previous battles, Zhao Hai didn't use it. Now that Zhao Hai had changed his tactics, these javelin were used. The Demon Dragon King wondered why.

This wooden javelin wasn't simple. One could see that they were crudely made, however, their lethality couldn't be underestimated.

The Demon Dragon King couldn't help but rub his temples. Although he planned to grab some land while Zhao Hai battles it out with the Divine Race, his current losses was something he didn't hope for.

And after they left the city, they were attacked by javelins once more. All of these gave the Demon Dragon King a headache.

While Zhao Hai was busy dealing with the Demons, he wasn't aware of the changes in another place. In the Northern Icefield, there was a huge spatial rift that was constantly releasing undead. When they came out of the rift, the undead went about and explored the icefield. They only remained undetected because the icefield was just too big.

However, the undead quickly found the volcano as well as the stone city. Soon, more and more undead went towards that direction as even more undead came out of the rift.

At this point, a large sea of undead was starting to head towards the Beastman Prairie. These undead were tirelessly going forward. The ice and winds were completely useless against them. In a few day's time, they would be setting foot on the prairie.

Naturally, Zhao Hai and the others didn't know about this. At the same time, they were also unaware about another small rift appearing in an island not too far from the Radiant Empire. This rift was smaller and there were no creatures going out of it. However, this rift would surely have an impact on the Ark Continent in the future.

Zhao Hai didn't know about any of these, his thoughts were currently on the enemies in front of him, the Demons and the Divine Race. Now that the Divine Race was heading back to the Radiant Empire, Zhao Hai only had the Demons to worry about.

Lizzy and Megan had prepared for three days in order to deal with the winged pegasus army. However, Zhao Hai didn't worry too much. He knew that they would take action quite soon. At the same time, the God rank potion would be completed in one day.

Meanwhile, Zhao Hai was very surprised at the Demon Army. He didn’t stop harassing the Demons both day and night. Moreover, with the use of the mosquitoes, the losses to the Demon Army had reached an additional 1 million. But even with this, the Demons didn't retreat. Conversely, even with their slow pace, they continued on. This action made Zhao Hai admire the Demon Race. Zhao Hai sent forces to attack them all the time, however, they kept going forward even if they knew that every step they make would cause them to bleed out.

Zhao Hai didn't understand why the Demons continued on. After the days of being attacked, the Demons were looking very exhausted. They didn't have a good time to rest and eat. However, they still kept on moving forward.

Zhao Hai didn't know that the reason for this was simple. The Demons didn't retreat because Zhao Hai has yet to use his main army. This made the Demons think that he was still in battle with the Divine Race. If they don't use this opportunity to occupy land, then they won't be able to do it in the future.

Although the Demons had sent some scouts, those people didn't dare to get too close to the Divine Race. Moreover, after Thunder Yun saw that Zhao Hai didn't harass them, he decided to slow their retreat, allowing more time to rest. At the same time, he also used this time to get familiar with the surroundings.

The Demons had more information coming from their scouts near the Radiant Empire. Seeing that the main army was still absent, they were unaware of the retreat. If they knew that the Divine Race had turned back, the Demon Dragon King would surely stop the army from going forward.

A day passed and another God-rank potion has been made. However, Zhao Hai didn't use it. He was waiting for one more potion to be made before handing them over to Blockhead and Rockhead.

Blockhead and Rockhead were twins that had a mysterious way of coordinating with one another. If Zhao Hai decided to promote one before the other, then he may risk disrupting this coordination. Because of this, Zhao Hai chose to promote them at the same time.

It can be said that some of Zhao Hai's fears were unwarranted, but he wasn't in a hurry about this matter. After all, Blockhead and Rockhead would be Demigods after promotion, so they wouldn't be a great help anyway. Waiting for a few days wouldn't affect anything too much.

Time passed by and another day came. This was the fifth day after the Demons decided to dispatch their troops. They were still advancing but their losses had now surpassed 3 million, a tenth of their original number. Additionally, after passing by another two cities, more than 2 million troops were left behind. It can be said that the Demon Army was now cut down by a fifth.

Zhao Hai had to recognize the tenacity of the Demon Race. However, he knew that the Demon army's luck was soon to run out. This was because Lizzy and Megan had already taken care of the winged pegasus cavalry. With this, Zhao Hai was back to using his full strength.

Chapter 783 – The Divine Realm's Situation

Lizzy and Megan were both sitting and talking inside the living room. However, Zhao Hai was nowhere in sight. He was currently busying himself with the Demon Race. Zhao Hai had Megan and Lizzy rest well after they eliminated the winged pegasus army. Now that the two were resting, Zhao Hai took the job and commanded the undead and the cavalry in the meantime.

Lizzy looked at the weary Demons in the monitor and couldn't help but smile, "It looks like Brother Hai really made them suffer in the past few days. Look at how exhausted every one of them looked." Laura gave out a hmph, "You haven't seen Brother Hai. He was monitoring the Demons non-stop, he's quite tired as well. If you dealt with the winged pegasus sooner, he would have more time to rest."

Megan smiled and said, "Sister Laura, we already did our best. After all, we need to take care of every single winged pegasus soldier." Laura snoted and said, "Alright. Go call people from those two races, let's ask them about the Divine Race's situation."

Since Laura had been managing Zhao Hai's affairs for the longest time, she had the highest status among the women. Lizzy didn't hesitate and immediately called a heavy cavalry soldier and a winged pegasus soldier. This was also done according to Zhao Hai's instruction. When the two races were turned into undead, some of them were made into advanced ones so that they could ask them questions.

The barbarian soldier was tall and big, they were even taller compared to average Beastmen. On the other hand, the winged pegasus person was not that huge. Moreover, they look quite slender, resembling the Elves. However, instead of long ears, the winged pegasus people had two wings as ears, with long feathers on each tip.

Lizzy and the others curiously looked at the two people. After some time, Lizzy looked at the barbarian soldier and said, "What is your race? Are you from the Divine Race?"

The heavy cavalry soldier replied, "Answering the madam.We are called the Barbarians. We aren't from the Divine Race, instead, our plane was invaded with the Divine Race. Whenever the Divine Race goes into war, they would send us."

Lizzy nodded, then she asked once more, "Are the other people in your race as powerful as you? How many of you are there?" Barbarian Ding shook his head and said, "Back at home, we are only considered to be second-rate soldiers. The real elite of our race has yet to set out. Our race's elites are all 9th ranks. We also have our Golden Horn division made up of God ranked experts. However, their numbers aren't large, only about 50 thousand people. All in all, our race has about 10 million elite troops. As for second-rate soldiers like us, I don't know how many there are." Lizzy and the others couldn't help but inhale cold air. They didn't expect the barbarians to be this strong. If they didn't have a few God-ranks, then the Divine Race might not have been able to conquer their plane.

After thinking about it for some time, Lizzy said, "Will your people send more troops? You lost too many people this time. Will your people help the Divine Race? Is your relationship with the Divine Race good?" Barbarian Ding replied, "Replying to the madam. Our relationship with the Divine Race isn't very good. We might send our troops, but the most we can send out are our elites. The Golden Horn division rarely sets out. Since the madame have killed us, the clan would surely send some people for revenge."

Lizzy and the to others frowned. They didn't expect this thing to happen. At this time, Megan couldn't wait as she turned to the winged pegasus soldier and said, "How about you? What is your race? And how is your race's relationship with the Divine Race?"

The winged pegasus soldier replied, "Answering the madam. We are the winged pegasus race. Our relationship with the Divine Race is roughly the same as the Barbarians. We also listen to them but we don't worship their existence. At the same time, our clan would also be sending troops in order to avenge us."

Lizzy and Megan smiled bitterly, they didn't think that there would be more enemies coming over. Laura didn't think about it too much as he looked at the winged pegasus soldier and said, "What is your name? And how many people does your race have? How strong are you?" The winged pegasus person answered, "Replying to the madam. My name is Zhan. My troops are in the middle of our race's strength. Above us are the elite army with 10 million troops. We also have the Silverwing Division composed of 100 thousand God-ranks."

Everybody smiled bitterly upon hearing this. The Divine Race already had a lot of God-ranks. Now, there are also 100 thousand God-rank winged pegasus soldiers. If the Barbarians and the Winged Pegasus clan decided to send their best troops, then the Ark Continent would be in trouble.

Lizzy forced a smile and said, "How about those giants, do you know what race they belong to?"

Winged Pegasus Zhan nodded, "I do. They are people from the Thunder clan. Their faith lied on the Thunder Beast. Their wooden poles are totems used to worship the thunder beast. However, nobody has seen an actual thunder beast. Their totems can summon incarnations of the thunder beast. Their race is very strong, not only are they physically powerful, their totems also allowed them to cast multiple spells. I heard that when the Divine Race went on to conquer the Thunder Realm, they lost a lot of men doing so. Later on, they carried on a massacre in the Thunder Realm, shocking the entire Thunder Clan. In the end, the plane was given to the God of Thunder, General Thunder Yun. Thunder Yun is the commander of the Divine Race army, the Thunder Clan had become his personal bodyguards."

Lizzy gave a faint smile. Megan immediately followed up, "I saw green skinned creatures in the Radiant Empire. What are they? Why do they look like slaves?"

Barbarian Ding replied, "Replying to the madame. They are indeed slaves. They are called the Goblin Race. They are creatures native to the Divine Realm. Their fighting strength is low, however, they are very interested in tinkering. It was said that magic formations made by them are very strong. I've also heard that they were able to produce flying machines in the past. However, since their race isn't interested in making weapons, the Divine Race managed to subdue them. In the end, their entire race was reduced to becoming labor slaves."

Laura asked, "Did the Divine Race conquer any other race? If so, what other races are there?'

Barbarian Ding shook his head and said, "I don't know."

However, Winged Pegasus Zhan replied, "Answering to the madam, there are no other races in the Divine Race army. The Divine Race army that is attacking the Ark Continent right now are the Divines from the Taurus Continent. The Taurus Divines had only conquered our four races. As for the other Divines on the other continents, I don't know much about the planes that they conquered."

Laura stared, then her expression underwent a huge change, "Will the other continents send troops here? Aren't the Divine Race in a war against the foreign races? Did the war subside?"

Winged Pegasus Zhan shook his head and said, "Replying to the madam. I don't know whether the other continents would send their troops or not. However, I have heard about the war with the foreign races. It seems like the foreign races had inferior strength compared to the Divine Race, they had been pushed into a passive state."

Laura frowned, "I heard that the Divine Realm has 13 continents. How are they divided between the Divine Race and the foreign races?"

Winged Pegasus Zhan nodded and said, "Of the 13 continents, ten of them are under the control of the Divine Race while three are controlled by the foreign races; the Aries Continent, the Libra Continent, and the Virgo Continent. Other than those three, the remaining ten are under the Divine Race."

Laura let out a long breath, then she asked once more, "Do you know which foreign race controls each continent?

Winged Pegasus Zhan nodded, "The Ares Continent is where the Beastmen Gods reside. The Libra Continent is under the Dwarves, and the Virgo Continent is under the Elves. Beside those three huge races, there are also some other races that live in the three continents. All these years they had continued to resist the Divine Race."

Laura and the others nodded. To be honest, they didn't know what to think right now. They didn't think that the Divine Race would have this much scope in their power. They were already having problems dealing with the Taurus Divines. If the other continents send troops, then the Ark Continent would surely be eliminated.

However, Laura and the others were also thinking that it was highly improbable. The Taurus continent surely wasn't that smaller than the Ark Continent. In this case, if the other continents sent their troops, there won't be much they could gain. They might even lose more than what they receive.

Additionally, the Divine Race also needed to deal with the foreign races. It was impossible for the entire Divine Race to focus on the Ark Continent. Perhaps this is an opportunity for Zhao Hai.

They had already proven that the foreign races are still surviving. This meant that a potential ally existed!

Chapter 784 – Make Them Know How Terrifying We Are

Zhao Hai woke up. He found himself very tired in the past few days as he continually harassed both the Demons and the Divine Race.

Additionally, when Lizzy and Megan were done dealing with the winged pegasus cavalry, Zhao Hai saw that the two of them were very tired. So instead of having them work again, he decided to have them take a rest. Meanwhile, Zhao Hai went on and continued to harass the Demons.

After cleaning his room, Zhao Hai pushed the door open. Upon going out, he couldn't help but knit his brows. He knew that Laura and the others were in the living room, however, there wasn't any sound right now.

Zhao Hai immediately knew that something must have happened. Otherwise, the women wouldn't have been this silent. After thinking about it, Zhao Hai immediately hastened his steps as he went to the living room.

After arriving, Zhao Hai saw Laura and the others frowning, nobody made any noise.

Zhao Hai couldn't help but be curious, so he asked, "What's wrong? Why are you all frowning?"

When the women saw Zhao Hai arrive, they immediately made space for him to sit down. Meg stood up and offered Zhao Hai a cup of tea while Laura and the others told Zhao Hai about what they had found out.

After hearing the story, Zhao Hai frowned as well. If this was really the case, then he had gained more annoying enemies.

Seeing that Zhao Hai stayed silent, Laura and the others didn't make a noise. After all, the final decision about this matter lied on Zhao Hai.

After some time, Zhao Hai opened his mouth and said, "Alright, worrying about this is useless. If the elites of those two races come, then let them come. We aren't afraid of them. Moreover, when it comes to revenge, their hatred for the Divine Race is certainly stronger. Yet, they still submitted, therefore, they should submit to us as well. The important thing to us right now is the existence of the foreign races in the Divine Realm. As long as they survive, then the Divine Race couldn't go all out in fighting us. Also, the other Divine Realm continents might not be interested in the Ark Continent. Moreover, with how serious the Taurus Divines have become, their actions have certainly been spread to the Divine Realm. At the very least, the foreign races should be able to hear the news. They might even take the opportunity to contact us, seeing how they aren't doing too good."

Laura nodded, "However, it wouldn't be too easy for us to deal with the Taurus Divines. After all, we've already been having problems with Thunder Yun, the power of his Giants is very strong."

Zhao Hai agreed, "That's correct. But although the Giants have great strength, I'm certain that they aren't that numerous. After all, if they had enough numbers, then they wouldn't have been destroyed by the Divine Race." Laura and the other nodded. They were just worried, they weren't afraid. After all, they had the Space. They could just evacuate the Ark Continent whenever things get out of hand. When that time comes, they would just wait until their overall strength gets improved. Then they can expel the Divine Race form the continent.

Zhao Hai looked at Laura and the others as he smiled and said, "Actually, among these information, the one I think the most useful is the Goblins. I have underestimated them before, I didn't think that they would have this much skill."

Laura looked confused at Zhao Hai's words, she asked, "Why is Brother Hai so interested in those Goblins? I can't see anything special about them."

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Didn't Zhan say that those goblins are very skilled when it comes to machines? Moreover, they have certain talents when it comes to using magic formations for machines, their skills would surely be good for us."

Laura was still confused, "Good? What's the difference between machines with magic formations and just magic formations?'

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Of course its good. If those goblins are really experts in the application of magic formations, then they can help improve the strength of our magic cannons. Also, they might be able to make different uses for the crystals. Using the crystals just for ammunition would be wasteful."

Laura stared for a moment before she nodded, "Alright. If we can save more crystals, then we could make more magic cannons and other items."

Laura finally understood what Zhao Hai meant. Karen had been researching ways of using magic formations to change the lives of the average person. He wanted to make their lives more convenient and safe. After seeing the things in the Space like the monitor, the kitchen and other Earth items, Karen suddenly had an inspiration.

Laura didn't oppose to Karen's new obsession. However, she didn't like how Karen would exhaust himself and even forget to eat and sleep.

Therefore, when Zhao Hai raised the idea of the Goblins, she immediately agreed. If these Goblins were to find ways to make use of the crystals, then it would be a good thing for them.

However, Lizzy was still frowning as she said, "Big Brother Hai, but in the past, the Goblins seems to have no interest in weapons. Otherwise, they wouldn't have fallen easily to the Divine Race."

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "In the past, the Goblins did indeed have no interest in weapons. However, now should be different. They had been slaves of the Divine Race for so long that they should have understood the importance of having weapons. I think they should be looking into making their own all this time." Megan also frowned, "Will this work? Those goblins have been under the Divine Race for so long. I'm afraid their inheritance had already vanished with time. Will they really be useful to us?"

Zhao Hai gave a faint  smile and said, "Their inheritance might have vanished, but as long as they are goblins, their skills for tinkering should be ingrained to their bones. Just like how the Elves are innately close to nature and the Dwarves gravitating towards blacksmithing, those goblins should still be able to make machines."

The woman nodded, then didn't say anything more. Zhao Hai let out a long breath as he said, "The Divine Race are truly fools. If they had the goblins research weapons, then they might have already conquered the Ark Continent."

Zhao Hai said this as he shifted his gaze towards the monitor, showing the Demon Race's situation. At this time, the Demons were resting. The Demons looked less tired now compared to two days before.

This didn't mean that Zhao Hai had reduced his harassment, it just meant that the Demons have adapted. In the past, whenever they meet Zhao Hai's troops, the Demons would become anxious. But now, except for those in the outskirts of the army, the others went on to sleep and eat, acting as if nothing was happening.

Zhao Hai faintly smiled, the Demons were truly worthy of being mighty warriors. Their adaptiveness to war was very good. Not only did they adapt to Zhao Hai's harassment, they also got used to the attacks made by the blood devouring mosquitoes.

Zhao Hai turned to Lizzy and Megan and said, "Are we ready? I think it’s time to attack the Demons. Let them be aware that the Divine Race has retreated, and that we are now focused on dealing with them."

Lizzy looked at the screen and then smiled, "It is indeed time to inform them, otherwise they would think that we're being bullies."

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Go, make them know how terrifying we are." Lizzy nodded and then took out her messenger fish as she and Megan began to issue orders.

First, they had the cavalry units take a rest. Then they immediately released a large number of undead, ready to attack the Demon Army.

In the beginning, Zhao Hai wanted the undead army to attack Rising Sun City, cutting the retreat of the Demons. Then he would encircle the Demon Army and kill them in one go.

However, he discovered that this plan was too unrealistic. First, the Demons had a large number of reinforcement from Demon City. Secondly, the Demon Dragon King's army had 20 million troops, trapping them was completely impossible.

If 20 million troops were to make a move, then their threat would be too big. Zhao Hai had painstakingly been acquiring undead, and he didn’t want the to be blown up by the Demons. Because of this, Zhao Hai quickly trashed his plan. Instead, he would hand the matter over to Lizzy while he would charge towards the enemy troops.

After seeing Lizzy and Megan prepare, Zhao Hai took Berry, Shue, and Shun, as well as some undead creatures with him. The other undead were given to Lizzy and Megan.

Four people stood on top of a Bone Dragon. They appeared on the place where the Divine Race decided to stop. Then, a large army of undead followed them outside. Zhao Hai, along with the undead army, were ready to charge towards the Demon Army!

Chapter 785 – Drill

The Demon Dragon King felt strange. The constant attacks from the Ark Continent suddenly stopped. All the cavalry units and undead have retreated. What happened? Did the Divine Race break their defenses? Were they forced to retreat?

The Demon Race's information network wasn't quick. Although they had already discovered the retreat of the Divine Race army, reaching the Demon Dragon King wasn't easy. The Demon Army was already deep into the Buddha Empire. And the Ark Continent's forces were often patrolling the surrounding area. Because of this, word of the Divine Race's retreat had failed to reach the Demon Dragon King.

However, word from the scouts was now unneeded. This was because the Demon Dragon King can already guess what happened from what he saw in front of him. An undead army was approaching from the distance with Zhao Hai standing at the front. The Demon Dragon King's face changed, he gave a bitter smile as he muttered, "I didn't expect the Divine Race to be so soft. It seems like Zhao Hai hasn't been damaged at all, instead, he had gained more undead."

The Demon Dragon King was talking to himself, naturally, these words didn't reach the ears of the other military commanders. Seeing the approaching undead army, these commanders were in shock. It can be said that they hadn't battled with Zhao Hai before, so this was the first time that they experienced Zhao Hai's might. Even those who fought with Zhao Hai discovered that Zhao Hai's power was more than what they had thought.

In the past, Zhao Hai brought about more than 10 million undead to fight with the Demons. But now, Zhao Hai brought nearly 30 million. At the same time, human cavalry soldiers were patrolling around the Demon Army. This caused the tension to increase among the Demons present.

In fact, aside from the Demons, the cavalry units were also startled. They didn't expect Zhao Hai to have this much undead. However, their surprise turned into glee. The stronger Zhao Hai was, the better it would be for their future. Although they don't fear death, they still didn't want to die. The more undead Zhao Hai had, the need for the cavalry to break through the enemy lines decreased. This would reduce the probability of them being killed in battle.

As the undead army got closer, the Demon Dragon King slowly gave command, "Army Formation!"

As the Demon Dragon King's voice dropped, the drums behind him began to sound out. The flustered Demons immediately recovered. Before long, a large formation was already set.

At this point, most of the warriors in the Demon Army were 9th ranks. Their 8th rank experts were almost killed during Zhao Hai's constant harassment.

The Demons were unable to form a giant cube just like the undead. Aside from the Fishmen, only Zhao Hai used this kind of formation.

The intricacies to the cube formation was too much. Except for the Fishmen who trained in it for so many years, only Zhao Hai who had a completely obedient undead army can use it. It was impossible for other armies to use it with little to no practice.

The battle formation that the Demons used was different to the cube. It was a half moon formation with the curve's inside facing Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai looked at the Demon Army and couldn't help but acknowledge the Demon Dragon King's ability. They had been constantly attacked in the past few days, causing them to lose several million people. However, not only did the Demons refrain from retreating, they were also able to adapt to their situation. This was naturally largely in part to the Demon Dragon King's plans.

Since it was the Demon Dragon King who was controlling the army, the Demons still trusted him despite their heavy losses. Also, not even one Demon deserted the army, showing how resolute the entire race was.

Zhao Hai didn't plan to have a talk with the Demon Dragon King. Instead, he was waiting for Lizzy and Megan to get ready. As soon as they give the signal, the attack would begin.

Just as Zhao Hai's group reached about a kilometer away from the Demon Army, Lizzy's voice came through, "Big Brother Hai, we'll change to a cone formation, you'll be in the head."

Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned his head to the three other people and said, "You don't need to be with me. You go out of the formation and attack the Demons." The three nodded before they flew from the bone dragon and out of the cube formation.

At roughly the same time, the cube formation changed and became an extremely huge cone. Zhao Hai was on the very tip of the cone, establishing his Domain. Since his Domain can transform into anything that he can think about, Zhao Hai made his Domain into a huge cone with ridges along its side. The Domain looked just like a huge drill bit.

Behind Zhao Hai were the undead, all of them were in perfect place along the cone formation, ready to attack the Demon Race.

After Zhao Hai transformed his Domain, it slowly turned. Going along the Domain's rotation were the undead behind, making a huge drill out of the massive cone formation.

While the formation rotated, Zhao Hai led the charge towards the Demons army, intending to barrel through the Demon Army.

The Demon Dragon King didn't expect Zhao Hai's move. A kilometer distance wasn't far, but Zhao Hai managed to change a cube formation into this rotating drill before it clashed with the Demon Army.

It was too late for the Demon Dragon King to change the position of his army. He knew that if this drill formation hit their army, then the entire formation would be finished. The Demon Dragon King immediately commanded, "God-ranks, go forward and block the attack!"

After the Demon Dragon King's order, the God-rank Demons immediately went forward. However, Zhao Hai's advance was too quick. Just as the God-ranks arrived, they were immediately attacked. Even if their Domains weren't broken, they were slowly turned back by Zhao Hai.

The God-rank Demons met Zhao Hai's drill, however, they were unable to prevent it from advancing. After Zhao Hai killed some God-rank Demons, his formation was already nearing the Demon Army's half moon formation. When the Demon Dragon King saw Zhao Hai's approach, he knew that he needed to break it. However, he knew that he wasn't Zhao Hai's opponent.

The Demon Dragon King discovered that Zhao Hai's drill formation was creating strong energy disturbance around it. These disturbances weren't something that ordinary people can stop, it was even impossible for people to come close.

At this time, Zhao Hai wasn't thinking about this. His only focus right now was to control his speed. He didn't want the undead to be too spread out.

When the undead reached their speed limit, they immediately began to take their weapons out. Then one by one, they sprang out of the formation. Zhao Hai's formation wasn't just an ordinary drill, it was a drill with protruding thorns, dealing massive damage to all it ran through.

Because of this, all the Demons who dared to approach this drill was torn to pieces, they didn't even have the time to blow themselves up. If they don't go near this massive drill, then they would be safe. However, in a big battle such as this, one couldn't just easily reposition himself. It wasn't long before the Demon discovered that they had very little ways to deal with Zhao Hai.

Although there were a lot of Demons, all of them were in a formation, and Zhao Hai used this opportunity. It didn’t take a long time before Zhao Hai's drill was already into the Demon Race's formation.

When Zhao Hai's drill ran through the Demon Army, it immediately disintegrated, turning into innumerable undead that went on and slaughtered the surrounding Demons.

The Demon Army's formation was in chaos, Zhao Hai's drill completely destroyed it. And just as they were about to make a move, the drill suddenly dispersed.

This caught the Demons off guard. In a blink of an eyes, the Demon Army has been divided by the undead.

Zhao Hai immediately understood what Lizzy and Megan wanted to do. He immediately turned his head and killed his way towards the Demon Dragon King. The Demon Dragon King was the centerpiece of the Demon Army. His flag was easily spotted in the battlefield, allowing the Demons to know where he was. Because of this, the Demons would have a sense of direction and wouldn't immediately turn to chaos when dispersed.

What Zhao Hai needed to do right now was to deal with the Demon Dragon King. As long as the Demon Dragon King is gone, then the Demons would certainly turn chaotic. This would ensure Zhao Hai's victory in this battle.

The Demon Dragon King naturally saw Zhao Hai's move. When he saw their formation crumbling, the Demon Dragon King immediately knew that it was impossible for them to defeat Zhao Hai today.

The Demon Dragon King couldn't accept this outcome. He didn't think that he had just been defeated by Zhao Hai in such a quick manner.

However, he also knew that lamenting on this matter was useless. He needed to find a way to conserve their strength. At the same time, the Demon Dragon King also noticed that some of Zhao Hai's undead, although they had an appearance of a skeleton, were wearing very good armor. Their armor was something the Divine Race would equip themselves with.

Additionally, he can also recognize these winged horses. Several days ago, his scouts had informed him of the Divine Race's cavalry. It seems like Zhao Hai's new undead came from the Divine Race army!
