Chapter 156: Blood Robe

Start from the beginning
                                    

There were even some that formed rods and wings like butterflies.

However, regardless of its form behind the Ghoul, it appeared the same on the surface.

Mei Changge couldn’t quite find the words to describe it. It resembled something crafted from blood-red flesh, and at first glance, it was simply repulsive.

“The entity behind them is called the Blood Robe. It’s a talent of the Ghoul race.”

“Blood Robe?”

“That’s right. The Blood Robe is a special ability formed by the Ghouls after devouring corpses and specters.”

“This ability appears to manifest like an extension of their limb. Whether it takes the shape of an axe or any other form, it possesses an ability akin to that.”

“For instance, the sharpness of that enormous axe is undoubtedly quite high.”

Mei Changge explained to Xu Chu. Mei Changge had also seen the information about the Ghouls on the Star Web.

Mei Changge was disgusted by their race.

“Zhong Kang, get ready soon. This number is no longer something the Yue army can fight against.”

Mei Changge remarked. The quantity of these Ghouls exceeded his expectations. If he were to allow the Yue army to engage them, the entire Yue army might find itself ensnared.

“Yes, my lord!”

When Xu Chu heard Mei Changge’s words, an excited expression appeared on his face.

“Have those Jin people been impregnated by the Ghouls?”

Mei Changge’s gaze landed on some Jin people. He realized that these Jin people, be they men or women, had slightly bulging stomachs as if they were pregnant.

Mei Changge had come across some information about this as well. Ghouls could reproduce within the bodies of humans, and given enough time, the young Ghouls would emerge from the stomachs of those Jin humans.

However, if they sought to reproduce, they required certain methods and couldn’t do so haphazardly. Otherwise, the Ghoul race would not as one of the intermediate foreign races.

At that moment, some Ghouls had already climbed up the walls of Xiangyang City with the help of the Blood Robe.

For a moment, a large number of martial artists were in chaos as they fought for themselves.

“In a war, unless one possesses superhuman strength, fighting alone is a sure path to death.”

Mei Changge’s gaze turned cold as he observed the changes taking place on the city wall. He remained motionless, watching the individuals who identified themselves as martial artists.

But soon, teams of black-armored soldiers led the other soldiers up the city wall.

The black-armored soldiers seemed to know how powerful the Ghouls were. They did not rush forward alone. Instead, they formed a team of three to five men and surrounded a Ghoul.

“As expected of the Yue army. While their strength might be somewhat lacking, once they recognized the disparity, they organized into teams of three to five for combat.”

A smile once again graced Mei Changge’s face. In just a brief span following the arrival of the Yue army, the dynamics of the battle on the city wall underwent a transformation.

Yue Fei had left the Yue soldiers on the city wall in advance to prevent the martial artists from falling into chaos.

As for the Yue army guarding the city wall, they were the true elites of the Yue army. Their strength had reached Postnatal Level 7 or Level 8.

The black-armored soldiers in front of him were only about Level 4 or Level 5.

Mei Changge stood on the city wall. Although there were battles around him, it was as if no one had seen him. No one or even Ghouls approached within three meters of him.

At some point, Xu Chu had returned to Mei Changge’s side.

“My lord, the arrangements have been made.”

Xu Chu said to Mei Changge. He had left and informed all the Golden Crow Guards.

“Good.”

Mei Changge nodded slightly, but it was not the time to attack.

At the very least, they had to wait until the Yue’s elite soldiers attacked. That would be the best opportunity.

Mei Changge’s gaze landed on the city wall not far away.

That was where Yue Fei and Guo Jing were.

At that moment, the two of them had solemn expressions as they looked at the foreign races that kept surging up under the city wall.

“Guo Jing, it seems that we’ve underestimated the foreign race!”

Yue Fei had a bitter smile on his face. He thought that he could rely on the Yue army to hold them off for a period of time, but it had only been a short while.

The Ghouls relied on the disgusting ability produced by the lower back to easily climb up the city wall.

The 2,000 Yue soldiers he left behind and the 5,000 garrison troops barely resisted.

“That’s right. Moreover, the number of foreign races has completely exceeded our expectations.”

Guo Jing wore an expression of helplessness. He had assumed that there were only some foreign races among the Jin people, but the scene before him presented the opposite scenario.

At that moment, blood was all over the city wall. It was impossible to tell if it was human blood or the blood of the foreign races.

Certain martial artists found themselves unable to endure the conditions and made a hasty retreat toward the city.

The brutality of war continued to expose and test the supposed martial artists.

“Should we send someone to find Brother Mei?”

Guo Jing suddenly thought of Mei Changge and asked Yue Fei..
