#178 - Under the sword, we are all ants
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"…
Invisible blades of light slashed through the orcish ranks, unseen and untouchable.
Yet, the series of short, sharp whistling sounds were truly terrifying!
After another pass through the orcish formation, the time Liang Yue spent had drastically decreased, from the original tens of seconds to the current teens.
Originally, his attack frequency was at most one or two sword strikes per second, but now, on his return, it had more than doubled!
In the space between the soul and reality, Liang Yue was like a nimble dragonfly, each leap as light as a touch on the water's surface.
However, each ripple caused by his landing brought an elusive death!
Soon, after just two more passes, he had slain almost all of the archers in the orcish army.
Those orcs who, under the scolding of their commanding officers, tentatively waved their swords at Liang Yue, trying to discern his true nature, were mercilessly slaughtered as soon as they entered his attack range!
Even those war orcs known for their courage and strength~
Their bodies were huge and strong, enslaved and raised by the orcs from a young age, some even having their limbs cut off and replaced with large foot hammers and hand scythes!
But even such war machines, when faced with Liang Yue's invisible and unreasonable sweeping attacks, could not escape being cleaved in two!
Therefore, when Liang Yue once again swept through the orcish ranks, annihilating all the orcs responsible for siege warfare with catapults, a strange sense of panic began to appear in the orcish army.
If it weren't for the suppression of several core commanders and ruthless executioners, this army would probably have already shown signs of collapse!
Asog, the orcish leader standing high on Raven's Ridge, was equally helpless against the enemy who was currently stabbing his army in the back.
After repeatedly sweeping through a batch of orcs, Liang Yue had also faintly noticed signs of instability in the enemy's morale.
Faced with this situation, he saw it in his eyes and worried in his heart…
"I can't let them collapse like this, where am I going to continue farming monsters if the team really collapses?"
"Chasing and killing is not as enjoyable as this mowing mode on the battlefield!"
"No, I have to give them some hope~"
With this thought in mind, Liang Yue immediately stopped his leaping and slashing movements, and stuck the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand into the ground.
Then, he directly took off the Supreme Magic Ring from his hand.
And in the next moment, his figure appeared directly in the middle of the orcish army's encirclement.
Speaking of which, the orc race is still very warlike and skilled in battle~
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to fight back and forth with the dwarves, elves, and humans with the strength of their own race, and the situation was once even in their favor.
Faced with Liang Yue, an oddity who suddenly appeared in their army formation, the orcs' first reaction was surprise, but then they all went berserk.
"Roar~~!" "Ah~! !" "Ooh wah~! ! !"…
For a time, all kinds of roars and howls began to resound throughout the battlefield!
The orcish army, which had been frightened and on the verge of collapse, suddenly burst out with a huge contrast in killing intent.
As long as the enemy could be seen, especially such a figure who, in their opinion, was not particularly outstanding in size and stature…
Faced with Liang Yue, an enemy who had wantonly slaughtered thousands of their teammates and dared to show himself in front of them, the orcs immediately clenched their weapons and bared their buck teeth.
Without even the order of the officers in the army formation, they rushed towards Liang Yue in the encirclement.
They roared and howled, and for a time, they burst out with an unusually high fighting spirit.
Some waved the weapons in their hands, slashing at him from afar, while others threw the spears in their hands directly as javelins, impatiently throwing them at him.
Some didn't even plan to save their lives, and when they approached Liang Yue, they directly pounced on him, leaping into the air with all their might, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced at him.
However, what these brave orcs didn't know was that this was exactly what Liang Yue had been hoping for in his heart!
"Whoosh~!"
Faced with the enemies rushing from all directions, this guy curled his lips, and with a light stomp of his feet, his entire person disappeared in place in an instant.
When he reappeared, he had already taken the initiative to meet the enemies in one direction!
The blade swept across!
The fan-shaped sword light flashed and disappeared in front of him, reflecting a dazzling cold light in the sunlight.
Wherever it passed, all the orcs within a radius of four or five meters in front of him were all cut in half at the waist with one blow!
Still the same lethality, still the same efficiency in slaughter, but the difference was that Liang Yue was no longer the invisible enemy from before.
Faced with such a blatant target as him, the surrounding Orcs no longer had the panicked emotions they had before, and they fiercely mustered all their strength, rushing towards him without regard for life or death.
However, even exposed to the sunlight, Liang Yue was still incredibly brave and unstoppable.
Wherever the Dragon-Slaying Greatsword passed, any enemy would be shattered with a single blow!
This real person, these real flashes of swords, and the enemies who were subsequently cut in half at the waist and beheaded, instead presented his figure in an even more shocking way before the people!
In the distance, on the high Ravenhill, Azog watched the figure below, like a flea, constantly jumping around in his army, waving a giant sword, and reaping the lives of his people.
Unconsciously, he bared his fangs.
"Dragon Slayer, Liang Yue!"
He roared in a low voice, this name that had been widely circulated with the ravens in recent days.
Slowly, a few doubts arose on Azog's face, and he couldn't help but fall into a moment of contemplation.
After a long while, he suddenly raised his head, and then immediately shouted to the deputy beside him.
"Immediately send information to our master Sauron! Just say that the power of the One Ring has appeared on the Lonely Mountain battlefield! The enemy is very棘手, we need support!"
"Yes!"
......
At the same time, Liang Yue's ferocious performance on the battlefield naturally made the allied forces on his side cheer and roar.
The white-bearded dwarf was tightly gripping the stone pier in front of him, staring at the figure rampaging on the battlefield with a shocked face, muttering to himself.
"Oh~ Mother Earth is above, are dragon meat eaters so ferocious...?"
Gandalf rolled his eyes when he heard this, and then the old wizard looked at the Elven Princess next to him.
"Arwen, do you know why Liang Yue took off the One Ring before? According to my previous observations, the Ring should have no effect on him, why didn't he continue to be invisible?
After all, that would make him safer."
"This... maybe it's related to his purpose in coming to Middle-earth to train."
Arwen replied somewhat uncertainly after hearing this.
Although in this woman's heart, she had already vaguely guessed Liang Yue's thoughts, but this reason was too absurd after all~
Moreover, at this time, she had already become Liang Yue's villager, and in terms of identity, she could be regarded as inseparable from him.
But Arwen at this time was obviously not yet accustomed to this additional relationship between them, and subconsciously, she was still avoiding contact with someone.
It seems that, according to Arwen's character and her inner pride, this situation will probably have to continue for a while.
"If I remember correctly, Liang Yue did mention this topic before, and his purpose in coming to Middle-earth to train has always been very clear: to slay dragons and help us eliminate the dark forces.
In addition, it is to try to reduce the number of Orc armies as much as possible."
Speaking of which, Gandalf's voice suddenly paused, he pursed his lips, looked at the figure still rampaging on the battlefield, and said somewhat helplessly.
"Judging from the situation just now, Liang Yue in an invisible state did bring great panic to the Orcs. If it had continued for a while, they might have collapsed on their own without us having to move.
And after he showed up, those Orcs obviously became more energetic..."
"Liang Yue's use of the power of the One Ring on the battlefield, Azog and the others may have guessed the truth, what if they attract the Dark Lord Sauron over~"
Thorin obviously understood the old wizard's words at this time, but now that he has been promoted to the King of Dwarves, what he is worried about is another matter.
"Impossible, Sauron has not yet recovered to his peak, and in the previous battle, he has also been injured by the Elven Queen and driven to the East.
It is now unlikely that he will come to the foot of Lonely Mountain in person. Besides, looking at Liang Yue's performance on the battlefield now, how do I feel that he is even stronger than Sauron at his peak..."
......
The greatsword swept across, invincible~!
At this time, Liang Yue, who was fighting fiercely, even began to unconsciously experiment with the blessing effect brought by the internal force of "Primordial Unity Skill".
Rolling internal force was constantly injected into the Dragon-Slaying Greatsword from his upper hands.
Under the sunlight, a faint milky white halo was attached to the long blade.
"Whoosh~"
Turn around, swing the sword, sweep!
Accompanied by a short, sharp whistling sound.
In an instant, a wide crescent sword light suddenly shot out from the blade!
Like a dazzling new moon, it was initially connected to the blade, increasing the attack range of the Dragon-Slaying Greatsword, and then it surged out directly from the blade!
"Roar~!!"
Accompanied by a crisp sword sound, all the enemies within more than ten meters in front of Liang Yue were shattered!
"My goodness... A full five thousand points of internal force, just to exchange for such a little effect! ?"
