Chapter 319: An Universal Law of Energy Consumption

Hearing Wang Xiao’s words, everyone knew that he was cheering them on. However, it was really difficult for them to have confidence in the face of such an enemy.

Not to mention being an arrow at the end of its flight, even if the Lang brothers only had half a breath left, their chances of success would not exceed 30% if they had to pass through the [Night Roarer] to kill the other party.

No one responded. The dreary atmosphere did not change at all.

Fortunately, Wang Xiao had already expected everyone to react this way before speaking. He only paused for a moment before continuing, “There’s something you might not know. Our enemy is a criminal of the Purple Star who was once imprisoned in the Purple Star.”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Yang Fan blinked and asked in confusion, “You mean… you want us to ask the lords of the Purple Star for help?”

Wang Xiao looked at the [Night Roarer] in the distance. Perhaps because it had just arrived and was not used to the environment, it did not move much.

After confirming that they were temporarily safe, Wang Xiao explained to everyone, “The Lang brothers were captured before and this means that they once encountered an opponent they could not resist. Coupled with his projection, it means that they once fought the [Night Roarer].”

“Although there’s no evidence at the moment, I believe this should be the same battle. Otherwise, with a soldier like [Night Roarer] in hand, even a regular army would find it difficult to take them down, right?”

Wang Xiao said the last sentence to Qi Lianjun. The latter frowned slightly and thought for a moment before finally nodding in acknowledgment.

“Wouldn’t that be even worse?”

Han Bufan spread his hands in despair. “Even a regular army can’t deal with it! How can we?”

“We can!”

Wang Xiao said in a deep voice with a confident expression, “When the Lang brothers were captured, they must have also projected the [Night Roarer]. However, they were still captured in the end.”

“The probability of the Purple Star sending out stronger soldiers in a short period of time is very small. The only explanation is that the soldiers projected have some flaws, such as being weaker than the main body.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Lianjun said from the side, “Impossible.

After our soldiers were projected just now, they were all at their peak state. There’s no difference in strength.”

“Alright, that eliminates one guess.”

Wang Xiao nodded and was about to say something when a muffled bang suddenly sounded in the distance. It turned out that the [Night Roarer] could not hold back anymore and began to rush towards them!

Han Bufan’s expression changed and he immediately sent out the [Holy Archangel] to fight. At the same time, Yang Fan also drank a [Recovery Potion] and activated the [Life Array] to its peak state!

With the enhancement of the [Giant Tribe], the [Holy Archangel] was even slightly larger than the [Night Roarer]. The six wings on its back flapped gently and it instantly appeared in front of the [Night Roarer]!

“[Holy Light Sanction]

Han Bufan directly activated his skill.

The [Holy Archangel] clenched its right fist and pulled back. Dazzling holy light continuously gathered on its fist before it punched the chest of the [Night Roarer]!

With a loud bang, a dazzling holy light exploded on the fist. The [Night Roarer] was directly forced back a few steps by this punch!

However, the [Holy Archangel] was also not in a good state. The recoil instantly shattered the blood-colored armor on its arm. Fortunately, this armor was condensed from blood and instantly returned to its original state.

At the same time, as the [Life Array] circulated, countless pure life force crazily

poured into the body of the Holy Archangel. The injuries caused by the recoil also instantly recovered.

After taking a deep breath, the [Holy Archangel] raised its hand and clenched it in the air again. The longsword condensed from blood energy and holy light flashed in its hand and stabbed at the [Night Roarer] without hesitation!

“Wang Xiao! I can stall him!”

Han Bufan’s face was pale as he shouted anxiously, “Quickly think of a way!”

In fact, even without Han Bufan’s reminder, Wang Xiao’s mind was also racing. He knew that the soldiers projected by Lang Buli definitely had some flaw, but what was it?

“I’ve already eliminated the possibility that their strength is inferior to the main body. Could it be time?”

Wang Xiao wanted to start recalling the previous battles, but he discovered that he could not confirm this at all. This was because every time the mirror soldiers appeared, it would only take a few minutes.

After that, they were either crushed into black smoke or Lang Buli had the advantage and took the initiative to disperse the mirror soldiers.

If he wanted to confirm if it was a “time limit”, the only way was to delay as much as possible. However, looking at Han Bufan and Yang Fan’s current state, they probably wouldn’t be able to last long even if they gritted their teeth.

After making a “temporary” note in his heart, Wang Xiao began to think of other possibilities. He accidentally saw the Lang brothers who were almost standing at the edge of the cliff and suddenly had an idea. “Could it be energy?”

Summoning soldiers required a lord to consume energy. The stronger the soldiers, the more energy they needed.

This was not only a rule that the lords of the Blue Planet had to follow, but also an universal law that had never changed in the battlefields of the world!

The only problem was, could the soldiers projected by Lang Buli with his [Lord Talent] be considered to have come from a method of “summoning”?

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao looked at Qi Lianjun, wanting to seek his opinion.

“Adjutant Qi, I…”

“I think it’s a matter of ‘energy.’ ‘

Qi Lianjun did not wait for Wang Xiao to finish and directly spoke. The two of them actually had the same thoughts.

Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment before continuing, “That’s what I wanted to ask you. Do you think this ‘projection’ is considered a summoning?

“I don’t know.”

Qi Lianjun shook his head honestly and paused for a moment before saying, “But we can experiment.”

“Experiment?”

Wang Xiao was stunned again when he heard this, but he followed Qi Lianjun’s gaze and looked at the battlefield. He almost immediately understood what the other party meant.

At this moment, the battle between the [Holy Archangel] and the [Night Roarer] had already reached its climax. Although the level of the [Holy Archangel] was slightly lower than the other party, with its holy attribute restraining the mirror soldier, it could still fight back and forth with the other party.

However, looking at Han Bufan and Yang Fan’s half-dead appearances, this balance would probably be broken soon.

Outside the battlefield, Wang Xiao’s mutated beasts and Qi Lianjun’s elf soldiers were watching the battle. It was not that they did not want to help, but in the battle between these two huge creatures, their “petite” bodies were really useless.

At this moment, the advantage of having more people was obvious.

Taking advantage of the stalemate in the battle, with a thought from Wang Xiao, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] and the [Silver Shadow Leopard] immediately received the order and transformed into two silver streams of light that circled around the battlefield and rushed towards the Lang brothers!

The two brothers almost immediately sensed the movements of the two mutated beasts. Lang Buli suddenly realized something and his expression turned cold. However, before he could remind Lang Lina, he had already subconsciously opened a spatial vortex.

The figure of the [Nine Head Taotie] appeared in the air. It had yet to recover from the injuries of the previous attack.

Looking at the shocking and ferocious wounds, Wang Xiao and Qi Lianjun looked at each other and smiled. The other party was using a heavily injured soldier to deal with the emergency, which meant that their guess was right—

After projecting the [Night Roarer], Lang Buli no longer had the strength to summon even one soldier!
