Green Sand Canyon!

It is named because of the green vegetation on both sides and the yellow sand channel in the center.

Step, step!

Amid the sound of dense footsteps, a troop advanced at an even speed along the yellow sand passage in the center of the canyon.

Walking at the front were well-trained temple warriors wearing light armor, combat boots, and carrying long swords.

Among them, four thousand archers carrying heavy crossbows are located in the center of the team, not far from the casters.

Light armor, heavy armor, long-range, and spell casting are all available!

It seems that this team has no obvious shortcomings except for its aerial combat capabilities.

Originally there was no shortage, but several legions were temporarily transferred, including an angel brigade, so this was the only shortcoming.

Suddenly, the troops stopped abruptly.

Of course, it's not that the team doesn't want to move forward, but that the Paladin leader feels something is wrong.

It's so peaceful.

Even if there is a demonic disaster raging, Green Sand Canyon is not the opponent's target, and demons will not specifically target beasts and animals without complete souls, so there must be something wrong with being so quiet here.

The top of the slope on the left side of the canyon!

Seeing the speed of the team in the canyon suddenly stagnating, Zhao Hao knew that the other party had discovered something was wrong and immediately began to take command.

"Ready to shoot!"

Following his orders.

Among the tree crowns on the gentle slope on the left side of the canyon passage, figures appeared out of thin air on the originally empty branches.

The pointed ears, green leather armor, cloak, and wooden bow in his hand all revealed the identity of the other party.

Phantom shooter!

Fortunately, it is small in size. If it were large in size, it might not be able to squeeze in much of the tree crown.

Not only did the phantom shooter appear, but a soldier from the barrier camp also emerged from the forest.

The quantities are as follows.

2400 units Tier 2 Centaur leader

3000 units of fourth level combat dwarves

350 units of Tier 8 Silver Pegasus

2200 units of level 8 phantom shooter

800 units of eighth-level shadow swordsmen

109 units of level 10 dead wood warriors

15 units of level 12 unicorn beasts.

4 units of level 14 golden dragons.

3 ballistas, 3 supply trucks, 3 medical tents!

All the family assets!

For this battle, Zhao Hao even left only basic defensive strength for Tatakai, the tool hero.

If he hadn't just dealt with the dark elves, pirate kings, and abyss lords in the underground world, he really wouldn't have dared to take such a risk.

After all, with such a large army deployed, the Storm Territory's defense will be reduced to the limit. If an enemy really attacks, they can only rely on the fortress to wait for him to return reinforcements.

But Zhao Hao thinks this risk is worth taking!

Because this is the chance to get rid of the nine major camps, and even if the Storm Leader is lost, he is confident that he can get it back again.

Soon, the phantom archer bent his bow and nocked an arrow, getting ready to shoot.

"Fire!"

Zhao Hao gave the order before the other party sent out scouts.

Whizzing!

Arrows shot out from the tree crown on the left.

"Enemy attack!"

"Protect the ranged troops!"

"Fight back!"

The commanding voices of the Paladins sounded one after another.

In the battle order of the Templar Church, the Paladin is not only a trustworthy combat power, but also a leader and commander.

With their presence, even if they face an unexpected surprise attack, the troops can quickly calm down and deal with it.

In fact, the opponent's location is more than 100 meters away from the gentle slope.

Logically speaking, this distance is a safe distance, which is the biggest reason why they dare to move forward with confidence.

But the problem is that the phantom shooter can attack from such a long distance, leaving them defenseless and attacked by long-range firepower.

A large number of arrows intertwined in the air, and when they were about to fall, five illusory arrow shadows appeared next to many of them, as if by magic.

The arrow rain effect of master-level archery!

As a result, the originally large number of arrows began to pour down like a torrential rain.

Phew. Phew!

A Templar warrior, the shooter's body was shot through.

Forget it if you are a marksman. In order to be flexible, you don't wear light armor like the Templar Warriors. Otherwise, if you carry a heavy crossbow and are fully armed, your physical strength will not be able to withstand it.

But the Templar warriors are not without armor!

The light armor that covered the fatal position was as brittle as tissue paper under the attack of these arrows, and had no defensive effect at all.

Rows of Templars and archers fell under the hail of arrows.

The smell of blood and corpses appeared in large numbers.

There were at least a thousand temple warriors, and the shooters fell, especially the latter, who accounted for most of the dead.

As for why the caster didn’t suffer any casualties?

Because when the arrow fell, golden shields opened instantly.

Obviously not casting a spell!

It's impossible for so many people to react so quickly. It must be a triggering prop.

The shield's protection range is not large, it only protects the casters. If the defense range were several times larger, it could also cover the shooters.

As for the Crusaders who were closer to the gentle slope, they did not suffer any losses.

Not only Crusaders, but Paladins as well.

After all, he is wearing thick and heavy armor. As long as his mind is right, he will not let the Phantom Shooter choose these two professions as the target of long-range attacks.

Both of these are not arms. As long as arrows cannot penetrate their heavy armor, it is impossible to cause damage.

There is a mandatory 1 point of regular damage for the troops, but it is completely negligible.

"Fight back!"

After withstanding the first round of long-range firepower, the Paladin leader roared and commanded a counterattack.

In fact, without him needing to speak, there was already a Templar, Crusader, and Paladin heading towards the gentle slope on the left.

Of course, except for these thousands of counterattackers, the remaining teams were all slowly retreating.

After all, when fighting in an unknown terrain like a canyon, the home field advantage is lost. The best way is to leave the canyon first and then decide whether to fight or defend.

In other words, these troops that counterattack are actually troops that break up the rear and provide cover.

Zhao Hao at the top of the canyon looked at the other party's command and sighed with admiration:

"As expected of the Holy Church, its commanding ability is truly impeccable!"

Yes, he was originally planning to see if the other party would make a mistake and give himself a chance to reduce losses.

But he didn't give himself such a chance, so he didn't waste any time and directly took out a shackle-shaped item and chose to use it.

"use!"

In the world of heroes, there are endless life-saving and escape-type abilities, and he is not prepared to give the opponent a chance.

So after finding out that there was no chance, he used this prop directly.

Once used, both parties are like beasts in a cage, and only one party can escape alive.

If he had a choice, he really didn't want to use it.
