Chapter 194: Holding the Line

Slash!

More than 50 elite soldiers were cleaved in half, armor and all, before they could even attempt to resist.

The overwhelming stench of blood and the horrifying scene sent fear through the ranks of the frontline elite soldiers.

They tried to retreat but were blocked by their comrades behind them. Meanwhile, the heavy infantry raised their Modao once more and hacked down with deadly precision!

Some elite soldiers attempted to counterattack.

But when they struck, they realized with horror that their swords were too short to reach the heavy infantry before the Modao came crashing down!

They simply couldn't reach!

Some soldiers tried to flank the heavy infantry, attacking from the side or rear.

But they were frustrated to discover that the seemingly foolish side-by-side formation of the heavy infantry perfectly thwarted their attempts!

Angela's eyes sparkled as she observed the heavy infantry's spectacular performance.

She noticed their growing exhaustion and immediately activated a newly learned aura:

Basic Stamina Aura!

This aura provided all soldiers within 50 meters with a stamina boost, lasting 5 minutes!

With their stamina replenished, the heavy infantry quickly pressed forward with renewed vigor.

In just a few breaths, over 200 elite soldiers fell beneath the advancing Modao formation.

An indescribable fear gripped the enemy soldiers, causing more of them to retreat in panic, throwing their formation into disarray.

The heavy infantry, who had been under pressure earlier, now surged forward with increased morale, slaughtering the fleeing enemies.

Meanwhile, Yaya, who was still surrounded, swatted Tres away with her claws and sent several ambushing soldiers flying with a sweep of her tail.

Unbeknownst to her, Yaya's body was now covered in wounds, but her battle experience was growing rapidly.

She had learned which attacks posed a real threat to her, which ones she could withstand, and which she could completely ignore.

Additionally, Yaya had developed a better sense of prioritizing targets in combat, knowing that some enemies must be eliminated, even if it meant taking damage.

Although she was still being surrounded, as long as she protected her vulnerable belly and avoided the attacks of the high-ranking warrior Tres, she could hold out for a long time.

The ordinary soldiers' weapons simply couldn't break through her scales!

Yaya now understood that knowledge and experience weren't the same thing—only through real combat could she truly grow.

Matthew climbed back onto Yaya's back, surrounded by his transparent but resilient magical shield.

Thanks to Yaya's protection, though Matthew had been attacked, he hadn't been injured.

He continued to cast Fireball Spells, decimating the surrounding soldiers while constantly absorbing mana to maintain his magical shield.

He was gradually reducing the pressure on the elite soldiers attacking Yaya, giving her room to grow in battle.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several swift arrows whistled through the air, crashing into Matthew's rippling mana shield.
