Chapter 2335: Harassing on the Outskirts Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales Translated by XephiZ Edited by Aelryinth “They seem pretty confident, like they are going to rule over the country eventually,” Zhao Manyan noticed. “The Frenzy Liquid can easily make one lose their mind,” Mo Fan replied. A huge scattering of gray-blue feathers belonging to the Eagle Horses was falling on the Brown Rebels’ camps along the Scorching River, but not a single Eagle Horse Skyrider had fallen. Lieutenant General Dutch’s ability to command his men was very impressive. It explained why the Brown Rebels’ air force had suffered such a humiliating defeat! “Go around them and act according to circumstances. Use your advantage of being able to fly and your speed wisely. Try not to overstay!” Dutch ordered his men. The Eagle Horse Skyriders constantly circled the outskirts of the enemy’s camp, maintaining a safe distance from the enemy’s Mages while still being close enough to pose a threat to the enemy at the right time. Their formation had obviously loosened up, allowing them to watch the enemy better and minimize the possibility of being wiped out entirely by Super Spells. Super Spells had insane area coverage. If they stayed too tight as a group, the enemy’s Super Mages might eliminate them all at once! It was difficult to estimate how many Super Mages the enemy had. If the Super Mages ended up using their precious energy to attack only one or two Eagle Horse Skyriders with a Super Spell, it would actually benefit the Eagle Horse Skyriders in the long run. As soon as they spread out, a few Star Palaces that were being constructed in the enemy’s camp were abruptly withdrawn. It would be a huge waste if a Super Spell failed to kill at least ten Eagle Horse Skyriders! — The Eagle Horse Skyriders scattered across the sky. The enemy no longer had an air force, so they could fly over enemy territory and scout the enemy’s camps freely. Basic and Intermediate Spells had limited range and areas of effect. They also lacked the speed to pose a threat to the Eagle Horse Skyriders, unless an enormous number of them were fired at the Eagle Horse Skyriders like a meteor shower. Super Mages would not attack easily either, since they wanted to wait for a perfect time. Even if the enemy was able to take down the nine hundred Eagle Horse Skyriders by Casting nine hundred Super Spells simultaneously, the Federation Army had Super Mages too. What would they have left to stop the Federation’s Super Mages if they consumed all their energy right now? As a result, the only threat left to the Eagle Horse Skyriders was Advanced Magic. Every Eagle Horse Skyrider had to watch closely and rely on their experience and reaction time to dodge the Advanced Spells that were fired at them. If Basic and Intermediate Spells were like bows and crossbows, the Advanced Spells would be rocket launchers and cannons! Happily, the rocket launchers also had limited ammo. All the Eagle Horse Skyriders had to do was waste the enemy’s ammo so it would be a lot safer for them to charge into the enemy’s camps when the time came. Most Advanced Spells still adhered to the Magic Index. The only spells that were effective against airborne targets were Fire, Lightning, Earth, and Light Magic. Icebound Coffins might be falling from the sky to the ground when they were Cast, but their hundred-meter radius freezing effect would only take place once they landed on the ground. It was unlikely the Eagle Horse Skyriders would be hit by a falling Icebound Coffin, given their speed. The Eagle Horse Skyriders only suffered minimal losses when the enemy fired their spells into the sky. It was hard to predict the Eagle Horses’ course since their wings were on their hooves. They were moving through the sky like they were sprinting across the ground. They could change directions by turning their heads, so the only way for the enemy to kill them was by sealing off their escape routes with multiple Advanced Spells and killing them during the brief opportunity they had. Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were following the captain of the Shadow Mages. It was even unlikelier that the Shadow Mages would have any casualties. Each of the Shadow Mages?wore a Shadow Mantle that hindered the enemy’s vision as they were moving around, not to mention the extra concealment from the darkness of Nyx Regime and their ability to dodge attacks with Fleeing Shadow when necessary. They did not lose a single man, even after circling the enemy’s camps several times. The rest of the Riders started to take some minor casualties. “Lieutenant General asked us to act according to the situation. I’ve discovered an obvious opening in the enemy’s defense to the south of their camps. We can consider invading the enemy camps through there,” the captain of the Shadow Mages pointed out. “I’ve noticed it too, but we can’t afford to rush it. We can’t let them notice our intentions, either.” “Tell the others to keep circling the enemy camp while slowly moving closer to those white tents,” the captain of the Shadow Mages ordered. “Affirmative!” The captain gathered his men to launch an ambush. They would only get themselves killed if they sent out too few Shadow Mages for the attack. — Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan soon received the order to join the ambush. They were told to make their way toward the area with white tents. “Weren’t we supposed to only stay on the outskirts?” Zhao Manyan sounded a little nervous. He believed it was wise to harass the enemy from a safe distance where the enemy’s magic could not reach them. There were definitely risks if they entered the enemy camps. They might even lose their lives! The Shadow Mages used the Nyx Regime to cover up their movements. The enemy would be on guard if they noticed the Eagle Horse Skyriders grouping up, and the ambush would not work. The captain of the Shadow Mages was very patient. He purposely flew over the area with white tents a few times without staying there for too long, waiting until his men were nearby and ordering them to regroup with him. The Eagle Horse Skyriders were flying across the sky like black sparrows. They suddenly changed direction and dove at the white tents. The Eagle Horse Skyriders dragged the veil of darkness along with them, like many horse spirits pulling a dark curtain behind them to end the day in advance! “Charge!” The Eagle Horse Skyriders struck the area! The darkness made it difficult for the people in it to tell directions. Those on the outside could see half of the sky turning dark, but they had no clue what was going on inside the darkness. Those on the inside could only see massive figures and blood splattering everywhere as Brown Rebels with white bands on their helmets fell to the ground. The white tents were occupied by troops who were bad at adapting to the sudden attack. The Shadow Mages’ attacks were unpredictable, and only a few Brown Rebels were still alive after a few moments. “Retreat! Split up as soon as you take off!” The Shadow Mages ran away as soon as they rampaged through the white tents! They did not want to overstay their welcome! Several Advanced Spells landed in the area with the white tents as the Eagle Horse Skyriders took off into the sky. — The Eagle Horse Skyriders immediately split up after rising into the sky. Mo Fan happened to see Heavenly Flames surging under his feet as he turned around. Scorching lava rose into the sky like an erupting volcano unleashing its wrath at the Heavens! “It’s a Super Fire Spell!” “Back away, split up now!” the captain of the Shadow Mages yelled. A few Eagle Horse Skyriders who took off a little late tried their best to dodge the flames, but the Super Fire Spell covered an immense area. The pillars of lava rising from the ground immediately devoured them! The flames turned them into ashes in just a second, leaving no remains of the Eagle Horses or their riders behind.
