Chapter 21: Chapter 21: War Aura

Hold steady, don’t panic!

Ye Mingqiu quickly recovered his composure, carefully examining his equipment and Skills. Given the overwhelming disparity in forces and the suddenness of the war, the Spirit Realm trials will likely provide some form of compensation elsewhere.

Open the panel… Query information…

[Bronze Armor (Temporary Set)]

Basic Defense: 5 (Defense Power only applies to areas covered by armor.)

Equipment Effect: All Attributes +5, Maximum Life Value +200.

[Bronze Battle Spear (Temporary Weapon)]

Basic Attack: 5

Equipment Effect: None

[War Aura (Temporary Passive)]

Effect: Within a hundred-meter range, all allies’ Life recovery speed increases by 100%, Stamina recovery speed increases by 100%, Spiritual Power recovery speed increases by 100%, movement speed increases by 10%, fixed deduction of 5 points of damage, All Attributes +1.

[Detection Skill (Temporary Skill)]

Effect: Designate a target to detect their status, the amount of information detected depends on Spirit.

Indeed, there’s a surprise!

Is the core the Aura Passive?

The passive enhancement of the War Aura is significant, greatly boosting the combat abilities of allies within a hundred meters. If the Aura is used wisely, even with just three thousand soldiers, it’s not impossible to survive a whole day against eighty thousand enemies.

However, how to command the soldiers, get them to fight for themselves, avoid low morale leading to a collapse and escape, and find more soldiers—these are all issues.

It’s very difficult!

But it’s not impossible, as long as you have enough strategy and Talent, you can fully utilize the War Aura to survive a day.

The Spirit Realm trial for those with Spiritual Talent is such that, generally, the trial will provide ways to pass through cunning, even without strong enough strength, through clever means you can complete the task… but the difficulty is high, and it’s something most people cannot complete.

Besides, he also obtained the Bronze Armor with a massive attribute amplification, and the Bronze Battle Spear and Detection Skill, both with no equipment effect.

The Bronze Battle Spear is trash, but that’s normal. Ye Mingqiu has Spiritual Talent, not Strength Talent, so the trial certainly wouldn’t give him a weapon with high enough strength. After all, this isn’t a trial to test personal bravery.

The equipment effect of the Bronze Armor is very strong, with high Four-dimensional Attributes, decent Defense Power, a substantial increase in the Life Limit, avoiding death from unknown AoE attacks in war.

“Hu~”

Ye Mingqiu exhaled deeply, casting the Detection Skill on the soldier beside him.

[Xin (Level 1 Ordinary)]

[Race: Human]

[Attributes: Power: 8, Agility: 7, Constitution: 8, Spirit: 4]

This is a soldier with a template!

Ye Mingqiu frowned, casting the Detection Skill on the other soldiers one by one.

Has a template… has a template…

Still has a template…

Why does everyone have an ordinary template!

Are there no ordinary people among the soldiers?

A soldier with a template could be a mini-boss in an Ordinary Level trial but is just an ordinary mook in a Hell Level instance!

These soldiers have decent basic Attributes, with the basic Attributes of the Strength and Agility Body around 6-8. This means, without the Bronze Armor bonus, Ye Mingqiu’s basic Attributes might not even be as good as these ordinary mooks.

No wonder the Bronze Armor’s attribute amplification is so high; the basic difficulty is too high.

From the Vitality, Energy, and Spirit of these soldiers, they are not elite but ordinary warriors. If there’s no accident, the enemy soldiers are probably at the same level. Thinking about eighty thousand such soldiers is terrifying.

As Xia Qingxue said, in the Difficult Level trial, the demon boss she encountered had over 10 in Strength and Agility, specifically, how high is unknown. Surviving a siege by eighty thousand soldiers wouldn’t last long.

More importantly, there could not only be ordinary soldiers in the army; there must be stronger Elite Units, Archers, Elite Forces, even Generals, and a Great Monarch. There are also gods in this world.

This is the Hell Level difficulty!

So…

What should I do?

…

At the city gate

The signal fire turned the sky scarlet, and the Bronze Beast Head swayed ferociously in the smog.

The iron-clad city gate over three zhang high was shattered and cracked by the Siege Hammer, and the wood fragments wrapped in metal sheets rained down on the crowd like a storm. The leading Siege Soldier had half his head cleaved off, blood mist mixed with splinters drifting in midair, coloring the battleground’s foundation.

Thousands of soldiers poured through the city gate, roaring and shouting with a sound wave surpassing the last, the warriors guarding the city gate fought bravely but could not resist, only to be madly slaughtered by the enemy.

The city is breached, morale has scattered, but the gate guards are fiercely resisting, as if making a final struggle against an enslaved fate.

“Kill them for me!!”

Suddenly, with a thunderous shout, the War Aura instantly enveloped the city gate guards, and within short distance inside the city, a young man in Bronze Armor, holding a Bronze Battle Spear, was leading a hundred-man squad charging towards the city gate at the quickest speed.

The Heavy Armor Warrior rushing into the city charged, fearlessly attacking the youth.

Detection Skill!

Ye Mingqiu directly cast detection on the enemy’s Heavy Armor Warriors, discovering that their basic Attributes were indeed higher than ordinary warriors, with 10 in Basic Power, 12 in Constitution, and 8 in Agility, worthy of being tanks on the battlefield.

But he was not scared, as he charged forward while unleashing his Talent [Spiritual Power – Enchantment], with a pale blue glow attaching to the Bronze Battle Spear, giving the spear an additional 5 Attack Power, enhancing its power.

Faced with several Heavy Armor Warriors charging at him, swinging their broadswords, Ye Mingqiu directly swung his Bronze Battle Spear horizontally, unleashing unmatched strength.

Basic Power 4.4 + 30% Spiritual Energy Filling + 30% Unrivaled Divine Valor + 5 Bronze Armor + 1 War Aura = 13 Power! And under the Unrivaled Passive, the final strength determination is… 19.5!

Overwhelming strength determination!

“Boom!!”

Explosive power erupted, several Heavy Armor Warriors were knocked flying by a spear, unable to resist.

Ye Mingqiu didn’t hesitate for a moment, directly seizing the critical flaw, piercing the Heavy Armor Warrior’s throat closest to him with the spear, withdrawing the weapon amid the opponent’s fierce glare.

I… have killed!

The first experience wasn’t good, an indescribable feeling surged in Ye Mingqiu’s heart, but the battlefield wouldn’t give him extra time for reflections, as more Heavy Armor Warriors continued charging, their roars as if shattering his eardrums.

No extra second can be spared to mourn the slaughter, immediately arriving on the battlefield are endless waves like enemies, they roar, they shout, they swing weapons, they charge to the death.

The terrifying battlefield ambiance engulfed Ye Mingqiu, the craziness of battle covering up the discomfort, his eyes wide open as he swung the battle spear at the enemies, shouting, “Kill them for me!!”

At that moment, he forgot who he was, he only knew he was on the battlefield, he only knew those in front of him were all enemies, kill or be killed, this is the only law of war.
