Death… And Me Chapter 336 - Finishing The Battle

Chapter 336 - Finishing The Battle

It was just as Calina mentioned. Their group quickly encountered the enemy group. Not only that, but it was the same size as their own. However, they had no intention to win or lose, just dragging it out as long as possible. With Rean and Roan around, the losses were reduced to a minimum. After all, Rean and Roan could use the Instant Recover Skill. It's just that Roan wasn't as good at it as Rean, so they separated their jobs accordingly. Rean focused on the most grievous injuries, while Roan took care of the rest.

Their enemy group didn't take too long to notice that Roan's group was holding them back. Naturally, they tried to increase their attack power, but it wasn't of much use. Eventually, their leader decided to retreat since they were entering too deep into the Jialin Army's territory.

Unfortunately, Roan's group didn't let them do so. Once they started to retreat, Calina would give orders to change the formation and attack. If they decided to retaliate again, she would change the formation into a defensive one while retreating.

The battle continued like that for over twenty minutes. Neither side had any significant losses either, especially on Roan's side. Finally not taking it any longer, the leader of the Ca.s.sen group gritted his teeth before ordering.

"Ignore them, retreat into the back lines. We have been here for way too long already."

He had no choice since Roan's group kept being healed because of the twins. Although the difference was small, it would acc.u.mulate as time pa.s.sed. In the end, they would lose this battle of attrition.

Calina once again changed the formation into an offensive one, but their enemies still ignored that. Because of that, the slower ones ended up being engulfed by Roan's Unit.

Roan couldn't help but show a faint cold smile when he saw that.

'It should be about time.'

All of a sudden, another group appeared in front of Ca.s.sen's Unit.

"What?! Who are these guys?"

"We had eyes in the nearby groups! How come they appeared here?!"

"f.u.c.k! Spread out! Focus on retreating! Ignore everything else!"

Obviously, that group was none other than the 24th unit, led by a cultivator named Lavile. Well, in fact, it was only half of his group. The other half charged into the gap left behind by this Ca.s.sen group, quickly taking over the region they were defending. Lavile's Unit had an easy time conquering the area, so he immediately dispatched half of his unit to give Roan's group some support.

Calina wasn't that slow either. At the very moment she spotted the 24th unit on the other side, she immediately changed into a full-force attack.

However, Rean was even faster.

'Life Style, Fifth Form, Light Aura Burst!'

The 24th unit was on the other side of Ca.s.sen's group, so the Light Burst didn't affect them as much as the enemy. However, Rean's Light Element skill had a limited range. If he spread further than that, the effects wouldn't be as significant. That being said, only his unit was boosted by the Light Aura Burst. The 24th unit had to rely on themselves.

Well, the enemy already had no will to fight anymore, so it wasn't as if it made things worse for the 24th unit.

Under Calina's command, their boosted unit separated into several smaller groups. They quickly charged into the enemy ranks together with the 24th unit. However, the 24th unit was not being controlled by Roan, Rean, or Calina, so they couldn't display the same organization. That being said, around half of the enemy's group still escaped since the 24th group failed to hold them down.

Seeing that the rest were escaping everywhere, Calina immediately stopped their group.

"Stop! Don't chase them. Gather around and collect the spoils."

This was the cultivation world. Each partic.i.p.ating cultivator would usually be carrying their Spirit Stones and equipment. Spirit Stones could be used for their own cultivation while equipment could be used by themselves or sold later.

When the 24th unit saw Roan's group taking everything, they decided to join in. However, their leader immediately stopped them.

"Don't touch the spoils."

One of his group members couldn't help but ask.

"Why? We also helped them with this victory. We have as much of a right to take as they do."

The others also agreed with him. However, their leader still shook his head.

"The only reason we got this victory was that they let us do so. It was Death's Unit who told us about the gap that would appear in the enemy's defense line, allowing us to conquer that region. Just the rewards of taking over that area will be a lot bigger than what their group is getting now. Let's go. We need to stabilize that region before Ca.s.sen Country organizes other groups to retake it."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard that. Indeed, that was a huge accomplishment for their 24th unit, led by Lavile.

"Send someone to the nearest communication formation. Tell the headquarters that we need other units to join us in holding the newly acquired territory down. Make sure to state that it was the 24th unit who conquered it."

Their leader might have left the spoils of this battle to Roan's Unit, but he definitely wouldn't share the reward from the conquered area.

Calina saw those people quickly disappearing in the distance and looked at Rean and Roan.

"Is it okay to let them go like that? They will definitely claim the entire credit of that conquered area."

Roan shook his head.

"Leave them be. The elders are not that idiotic. They will soon understand that it shouldn't be possible for Lavile's Unit to conquer it independently. Once that happens, they will investigate and find out why that happened. We will receive our own share when that time comes."

Malaka couldn't help but say in response.

"But that will take some time. By then, no one will care about it anymore."

Rean smiled as he said.

"That's what Roan exactly wants. For him, the least amount of attention we get, the better. This is directly related to the number of losses our own group will suffer in the future, so this is a good thing instead."

Calina and Malaka nodded. As much as they were in the middle of a war, it doesn't mean the two girls liked killing.

"Let's go back!"
