Under the command of a group of insect mothers, a huge number of insect swarms poured into the jungle like a rolling torrent. They crushed the last line of defense composed of the abyssal sea souls, and were about to completely destroy the Singing Clan's position.
submerged.
At this time, a large group of Amazons wearing ancient standard leather armor and holding simple wooden spears suddenly poured out of the jungle. These Amazons did not have any spiritual energy emanating from their bodies. The weapons they held and the armor on their bodies
It is also obviously not professional equipment.
Obviously, they are not professionals or mercenaries, but civilians of the Singing Clan!
These civilians of the Singing Clan formed a simple circular array, each with a pale face, holding up their weapons to face the huge incoming insect tide.
When the ferocious faces and sharp claws of the leading springtails were getting closer and closer to them, some of them began to lose control of their panic, dropped their weapons and tried to run away.
However, behind them, a supervising team composed of thousands of abyssal sea souls suddenly pulled out their weapons and pointed their swords at the Amazons who turned back and fled!
"No escape! For the sake of the Queen, for the Singing Clan, and for the Storm Goddess! You must use your flesh and blood to block the enemy's attack!"
Ceria's cold voice came from behind the formation, and the abyssal sea souls who received the order formed a horizontal formation in front of the escapees, and ruthlessly pointed their sharp blades at the civilians who had fled back!
Several civilians from the Singing Clan didn't believe that Ceria really dared to attack them, so they continued to flee despite the warning, but the Abyss Sea Souls waved their sharp blades at them without hesitation!
Poof!
There were several muffled sounds of sharp blades piercing flesh, and more than a dozen civilians of the chanting clan who turned around to run for their lives died tragically under the sword of the abyssal sea soul.
When the other civilians of the Singing Clan saw this scene, their hearts suddenly turned cold, and their faces showed expressions of great sadness and anger!
It’s so unreasonable! That woman actually dared!
"I told you! Don't run away! Otherwise these deserters will serve as a warning to you!"
Ceria's voice became cold and stern, and the rows of abyssal sea souls began to move forward slowly with swords raised, forcing the flat people of the Singing Clan to turn around and face the terrifying wave of insect swarms!
On the other side of the battlefield, Xue Hua also saw this scene through the insect swarm's vision.
He didn't expect that Ceria would be so insane and crazy that he would use the lives of his own people as a cover and shield on the battlefield!
"Shameless!" Queen Xiange was even more furious. Throughout all the years of their Amazon tribe, there has never been a battlefield general in history who would use his own compatriots as a flesh-and-blood city wall!
Fina, you really taught two incredible students!
This is simply a shame for our family!
"Zagara, let the insect swarm bypass the civilians and see if they can pass directly from both sides."
Xue Hua frowned and issued orders to his battlefield commander. He was not a merciful person, but he also did not like to kill innocent people indiscriminately.
Seeing that among those civilians there were girls of seven or eight years old and old women of sixty or seventy years old, he couldn't take action no matter what.
Under his command, the insect swarm that was about to pounce on the "wall of flesh" composed of civilians immediately separated to both sides neatly, and under the guidance of the supervisory king insect, they penetrated inward from the nearby jungle.
.
On the front line, the civilians of the Singing Clan who had closed their eyes and waited for death found that pain and death had not yet come to them, so they opened their eyes one after another, only to see that the swarm of insects in front of them had no intention of attacking.
Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, strange thoughts arose in everyone's heart.
Even these ferocious-looking monster enemies couldn't bear to attack them, a group of civilians who were supporting their young and old, but the woman who was an elder of the same clan could push them out as sacrifices without hesitation. This was simply...
..
The civilians of the Singing Clan who were used as a human bunker at the front of the defense line looked at me and I looked at you, and we all saw the complicated expressions on each other's faces.
A clan like this can even sacrifice the lives of its own clan members at will...what else are they going to do?
However, the strangeness in the hearts of these civilians could not be felt by Ceria and Weiji, who were at the rear of the battlefield. They were already immersed in the joy of the success of their plan.
"Look! Let me tell you! That guy doesn't dare attack civilians!"
Ceria laughed arrogantly with a proud look on her face, and the Skitarii commander standing beside her could only laugh a few times in agreement with an ugly look on her face.
These two stupid women! Did they only learn this kind of dirty tactics in the second world?!
If this happens, the relationship between their skitarii and the clan members will definitely become alienated. No matter whether they win or lose this battle, they may not be able to explain it to their relatives and sisters!
"Why are you still standing there! Why don't you give the order to counterattack?! What do you do as a commander?"
Weiji on the other side shouted at the commander, asking her to immediately issue an order to take advantage of the opportunity to counterattack.
"But our people are too closely connected with the enemy. If we fight back now, it will be easy to hurt our own people!"
The commander's face was as dark as iron, and the troops on both sides of the front row were now at war with each other. Under this situation, if the sisters of the Skitarii were to fight back, they would basically hurt the people on their side.
And if they launch a counterattack that angers the commander of the swarm, the consequences... may be unimaginable!
However, the commander's words were once again sharply rebuked by Wei Ji: "Stupid! At this time, only the teacher's sacrificial ceremony is the most important!
As long as we can welcome back the Storm Goddess, with this great achievement, our clan will be able to surpass the two major clans of Xiange and Hailiang! When the time comes, facing the power of the goddess, his little Xue Hua will be nothing.
Destroyable ants?!
For the future glory of our clan, what does it matter if a few people die now?!"
"...Yes..." The commander was filled with hatred, but the situation was stronger than others. Even if she didn't want to, she could only order the remaining Skitarii Amazons to start a counterattack.
However, as soon as her order was conveyed, all the remaining Amazons of the Skitarii suddenly went into a collective uproar.
They are professionals, and one of the declarations made by professionals at the induction ceremony is to swear to protect the people and fight for the welfare of mankind.
But now the order they received actually asked them to fire in the direction of their own tribe?
Not to mention the righteousness of protecting the continuation of mankind, those standing within the range of their longbows are their relatives and friends!
Let them kill their relatives and friends. How is this different from murder?!
As a result, many of the Skitarii soldiers who received the order hesitated, and only a handful of them gritted their teeth and closed their eyes before drawing the bowstring.
This resulted in the rain of arrows fired from the Skitarii array being not only sparse, but also completely inaccurate. Each one was thrown a long way away, posing no threat to the insect swarm at all.
