Chapter 1855: Armored Giants!

Bang!

In a flash of light, an armored giant smashed into the earth, creating a crater with a diameter of more than one hundred feet . Two Tang soldiers unable to move in time were instantly crushed into meat pancakes . Meanwhile, the force of the impact showered the Tang ranks with stone debris and sent a plume of dust more than one hundred feet into the air .

Raaaa! A massive figure stood up, its body bursting with murderous and violent energy .

“Giant!!”

Upon seeing this massive being taller than several men stand up, the soldiers who had taken part in the Battle of Talas paled . These giants did not have the dark green armor of the Skyquaking Giants, and their bodies had also changed from tall and thin to muscular and bulky .

These new giants were even stronger than the Skyquaking Giants .

Boomboomboom!

Furious roars began to erupt across the battlefield as hundreds of armored giants began to land, and this was only the beginning…

“Look! What’s that?”

Suddenly, sharp whistles came from the back of the Arab army . A Tang soldier with sharp eyes looked up and saw thousands of fire balls rising from the horizon .

Even though these fire balls were much smaller than the giants, only about the size of a jar, their size made them even faster .

“Arabian Kerosene!”

A Tang officer’s pupils constricted as he recognized what these were .

Oil, or Arabian Kerosene, had become known throughout the Great Tang after the Battle of Talas . Its inextinguishable properties posed a grave threat to the Tang army .

This Arabian Kerosene and the armored giants made Arabia’s first attack far fiercer than the Tang had imagined .

“Li Junxian, it’s time for you to move out . Take the Confucian Sect members and eliminate those armored giants!

“Li Siye, take half of the Mo Saber Unit and work together with the Confucian Sect members to kill those giants!

“Zhang Shouzhi, get those things ready!”

Wang Chong’s calm and collected voice rang out, instantly soothing the others .

“This general will go!”

Li Junxian and Li Siye both swiftly accepted their orders . As Li Junxian spoke, his eyes flashed with resolve .

“Everyone, follow me!”

Li Junxian waved his hand, going forth with Elder Song, Sword Ghost, the white-clothed girl, and the other experts of the Confucian Sect .

Li Junxian had personally requested to join this war . This was not merely a war, but a chance for him and the Confucian Sect to redeem themselves!

“Everyone, follow me!”

On the other side, Li Siye gathered his men and made his way toward the giants .

The battle had only just begun and was not yet that intense . Even though the Arabs had mobilized all their power, it was no easy task to break through the layers of the Tang defense line . Li Siye and his Mo Saber Unit still had enough time to clear out the armored giants .

As Li Siye and Li Junxian began to move out, Chen Burang and the master archers awaited orders .

“Everyone, listen up! Target the Arabian Kerosene! Loose on my mark!”

Chen Burang’s extremely calm voice rang out . He gripped his longbow and nocked an arrow . His eyes locked onto the Arabian Kerosene bombs that were getting closer and closer .

At this moment, the entire master archer unit was eerily still .

Creee!

The Arabian Kerosene bombs whistled through the air in their tens of thousands .

Three thousand feet! Two thousand feet!

Chen Burang was constantly calculating the distance . He was keenly aware of how difficult it was to deal with this viscous Arabian liquid . It was both flammable and hard to extinguish .

A single mistake would cause the fire bomb to explode in the air and spread the oil outward, creating a sea of fire on the ground that would cause even more damage .

Before the battle, Wang Chong had repeatedly emphasized that if the bombs exploded in the air, they could burn up all the oxygen, suffocating tens of thousands of soldiers and killing them without even needing to hit the ground .

I have to explode them at the right height!

Chen Burang firmly looked up at the sky . He needed to choose the right height so that all the oil would burn up in the air without hurting the Tang army .

Eight hundred feet! Seven hundred feet!

“Ready!”

Chen Burang held his breath, the tension reaching the maximum as he stared into the sky .

Time slowed to an endless crawl, and after what seemed like an eternity, Chen Burang’s eyes flashed with cold light, and he finally gave the order .

“Release!”

The air screeched as tens of thousands of arrows took flight from the Tang ranks, a forest of arrows that impacted with the Arabian Kerosene bombs .

Boom! Boom! Boom! Balls of flame erupted in a series of dazzling explosions .

The explosion of one fire bomb caused the surrounding fire bombs to also explode, setting off a chain reaction that created a fierce sea of fire . This sea of fire created a unique blockade high in the air .

“Ah!”

As an armored giant passed through the sea of flames, the burning Arabian Kerosene seeped through the chinks in his armor . In the blink of an eye, the giant turned into a screaming fireball .

All of the giants passing through the sea of fire met the same fate .

Upon seeing this, the Arab generals grimaced .

This was not a development they had predicted .

Meanwhile, hundreds of giants had already fallen into the Tang ranks, posing an enormous threat to Su Hanshan and his ballistae, particularly the giant ballistae, which were the first targets for the giants .

Unlike ordinary ballistae, the giant ballistae were fixed on high metal platforms and could not be moved .

“Three hundred of you! Come with me and destroy the giant ballistae! The rest of you, destroy the ordinary ballistae and the ants operating them!” a muscular, armored giant roared in a hoarse and scratchy voice .

But at this moment, white-robed humans without even a shred of armor barred their path and charged at them .

“Interesting!”

Upon seeing these defenseless humans, the giant leader was taken aback, and then he savagely laughed .

“You damn ants think you can stop us? I don’t mind twisting off your heads and eating you as appetizers before I destroy those giant ballistae!”

With a cruel smile, the giant leader took out his massive saber and swung at one of the white-robed humans .

The other giants similarly chortled, arrogant and disdainful smiles on their lips as they charged at the white-robed humans .

For the armored giants, the two sides weren’t even on the same level when it came to size and strength . These strange humans weren’t even worth thinking about, simply serving as a means to satisfy their murderous desires .

But as these armored giants lunged forward, bang! Needles of Psychic Energy slammed into their minds .

“Ah!”

A laughing giant suddenly howled like a wounded beast and put his hands on his head .

“Beast! I’ll end you personally!”

Bamboo Mirror coldly snorted as he pulled out his sword, his entire body rippling with righteous energy as he shot toward the armored giant .

The hundreds of Confucian Sect experts began to attack the armored giants, with Li Junxian personally holding down ten of them .

Before the battle, Wang Chong had found Li Junxian and told him to use Psychic Energy attacks on these giants before fighting them .

The giants and Behemoths both had their origins in the technology of that lost civilization . Although their methods of production were different, they had their similarities, even sharing the same weakness .

All the Behemoths and giants had been produced over a short period of time . Special methods could be used to rapidly increase their size and power, but the same methods did not strengthen their souls .

Not even the High Priest could do anything about this .

Even the strongest Psychic Energy practitioner could not grant other creatures powerful souls or immense Psychic Energy .

These armored giants had the body and strength of a Saint Martial realm expert, but the same was not true of their Psychic Energy . This was their greatest weakness .

And the ones most capable of exploiting this weakness were undoubtedly the members of the Confucian Sect .

“Kill them!”

“Kill them all!”

The armored giants crazily roared . They instinctively felt greatly threatened by these white-robed humans, but little did they realize that this was only the beginning .

“Release!”

The giants had no idea that Zhang Shouzhi was also watching them .
