Chapter 707 - 215: [First Battle] (6300) Part 3
At an unknown time, a corpse of the Fierce Beast Race that originally lay on the ground started to stagger as it rose shakily. Although its body was initially stiff, it quickly twisted forcefully a few times and began to move.
Next came the second, the third, the fourth...
The Thunder Beasts charged into the enemy camp, fighting fiercely, while behind them on the battlefield, dead corpses of the Fierce Beast Race continuously and quietly stood up again, and more and more!
From sparse dots to gradually forming into a dense crowd, a block, and finally a whole area!!
What made Chen Yan’s face change drastically was...
Among those who stood up again as "corpses", some suddenly had a faint red glow emanating from their bodies!
Then the second... the third... the fourth...
More and more of the walking corpses were shrouded in red light!
Then they began to run!
When the first monster enveloped in red light charged at the rear of the Thunder Beasts team, the knight on the last Thunder Beast realized something was wrong.
He turned around, raised his long axe, and chopped down, the long axe carrying golden light, forming a massive phantom axe shadow that descended like an illusion!
This spell, in his hand, had just harvested seven or eight of the Fierce Beast Race, but at this moment, as he swung back and the golden axe shadow fell upon this red-glowing Fierce Beast Race who had already rushed behind him...
With a hum, the golden light shattered! The axe shadow fragmented, turning into a mass of golden light that dissipated!
Before this knight could make a second reaction, the red-glowing Fierce Beast Race lunged up, knocking down a sturdy Thunder Beast along with its rider in a single strike!
The Red Light Warrior jumped high and landed, stomping down on the knight with one step, crushing the chest beneath that foot. Under the red glow, the expressionless face bore a cruel, bloodthirsty gaze, looking towards the next closest target...
The Thunder Beasts quickly realized the attack at the rear of the team. Sensing that a large number of red-glowing Fierce Beast Race had gathered and pressed in from behind, the Thunder Beasts swiftly reacted.
They accelerated forward to increase distance, then turned the entire team around to charge at the growing mass of red-glowing Fierce Beast Race coming from behind!
Chen Yan lay prone behind the snow slope, his heart pounding, and then...
He saw it with his own eyes, the commander of the Thunder Beasts with two long blood-colored feathers on his helmet. He launched a flying sword from his hand, which pierced through the red light and stabbed into the chest of a red-glowing Fierce Beast Race! But the other merely sneered and grabbed the sword hilt with both hands!
The flying sword was held tightly, unable to penetrate his body and fly away, instead, it trembled wildly.
This Red Light Warrior, under the vibration of the flying sword, soon had his chest split open, eventually severing almost his entire upper body!
But behind him, more and more red-glowing Fierce Beast Race charged up, bypassing him, rushing towards that commander adorned with two blood-red feathers!
The commander was enveloped in golden light, but soon seven or eight red-glowing Fierce Beast Race pounced onto the back of the Thunder Beast, knocking him down harshly.
His long axe broke through a Fierce Beast Race’s red light, slicing open its head, but soon the long axe was seized tightly by a nearby hand, and more red light-filled figures piled on top...
A few breaths later, the golden light around the commander disappeared!
The red-glowing Fierce Beast Race jumped away one after another, leaving on the ground the commander’s corpse, torn beyond recognition! The two blood-colored long feathers on his helmet also fell into the snow, mixing with the mud into a mess!

This battle ended half an hour later!
The Thunder Beasts that charged out of Snow Cliff Pass numbered about seven or eight hundred rides—completely annihilated!
Their battle results seemed glorious, with the initial over a thousand Fierce Beast Race cannon fodder annihilated. After plunging into the Fierce Beast Race camp, they also caused one to two thousand casualties.
In the final clash with the transformed red-glowing warriors from the corpses, they successfully killed a number of red-glowing warriors equal to their own numbers—in a situation where they could cast spells, they almost achieved a one-to-one exchange with the red-glowing Fierce Beast Race!
But... ultimately, this Thunder Beasts unit was completely destroyed!
Moreover, what made Chen Yan feel like clenching his teeth was that he clearly saw on the battlefield that more and more Fierce Beast Race corpses staggered up from the ground, each one lighting up with a red glow...
"Damn it, this is evil!" Chen Yan, body hunched on the snow slope, fiercely swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
·
This was Chen Yan’s first time genuinely experiencing the real combat strength of these "red-glowing" Fierce Beast Race on the battlefield.
Generally speaking, these Red Light Warriors did not match the combat power of the Iron Hook Red Light Fierce Beast Race that Chen Yan had previously encountered.
Yet even so, a red-glowing monster could exchange one-for-one with a Thunder Beast rider—this was after the Thunder Beasts had destroyed four wooden mountains suppressing the Primordial Qi, allowing the world to be restored, enabling the Thunder Beasts to use spells in combat!
The red glow of these monsters had strong defensive capabilities—or perhaps not purely defensive, Chen Yan suspected this red glow had a specific suppression and immunity effect against "spells" in this world.
Especially after witnessing with his own eyes the entire process of the Thunder Beasts’ commander, the knight with two blood-colored long feathers, dying in battle.
