“Chang Yi, send out the Summoner troop,” Bin Wei ordered the captain.

“Acknowledged!” A general’s order was absolute in the army. Chang Yi immediately relayed the order to the Summoners on standby in the fortress.

The number of Summoners was not particularly high, but their strength and their Summoned Beasts had made them the elites of the Northguard Fortress, especially with the experience they had gained from their battles against the Beijiang Desolate Beasts over the years. Their Summoned Beasts were fiercer and stronger than those at most other places!

A lunar-white glow shone upon the fortress, forming a brilliant rift. Its light flickered continuously as Summoned Beasts arrived from the other plane. The previously deserted entrance was soon crowded with huge muscular Summoned Beasts.

The Summoned Beasts formed the vanguard troop, with the Summoners sitting on top of them. These Summoners were capable of close combat. Their magic and the teamwork between them and their Summoned Beasts allowed them to move about unrestrained on the battlefield. They were able to press forward, or retreat as they wished!

The leader of the Summoner Troop was a short man with energetic eyes. The man glanced at the approaching Yoked. He was expressionless and fearless.

“Charge!” Their leader Zhang Hao led the way. He was riding an imperious wolf covered by fiery runes. The beast left a scorched trail behind it as it sprinted forward!

The Flame Wolf’s speed was the highest among the Summoned Beasts. The rest of the beasts had to use all their might to keep up with it…

“That Flame Wolf’s level is pretty high!” Zhao Manyan murmured, staring at the wolf. The Northguard Fortress had a lot of concealed talents. Even the leader of the Summoner Troop had a Commander-level Summoned Beast!

The Flame Wolf was no weaker than Mo Fan’s Flying Creek Snow Wolf, if the power of his Icy lineage was not active.

Zhang Hao’s Flame Wolf engaged a Yoked. The undead seemed to be struggling to move under the weight of the chains around it, but when the Flame Wolf crashed into it, the undead creature was able to hold the Flame Wolf’s claws back with only its arms, despite the momentum the wolf had accumulated!

The Yoked was knocked flying. It had some injuries, yet it was able to rise to its feet instantly. It did not suffer any serious injuries!

Zhang Hao was dumbfounded. He was well aware of his Flame Wolf’s strength. It had never needed to bother with a second attack against most Warrior-level creatures, yet it had failed to kill the Yoked, despite using all its power!

The Yoked cried out simultaneously, sounding like soul-shaking drum rolls. A few dozen of the Yoked leading the way suddenly picked up their pace and whipped their chains at the Flame Wolf.

The chains had a lot of jagged edges. They were quite deadly when they were swung around fiercely. The Flame Wolf’s defense was not outstanding, and it had no choice but to dodge the chains.

The Yoked continued to press forward. Over a hundred of them were attacking the Flame Wolf at once, leaving injuries on it. The chains almost knocked the Summoned Beast to the ground a few times.

“Leader, we are here to help!” The other Summoners finally arrived. Their Summoned Beasts lunged at the Yoked. There were around two hundred of them at different levels. Their average strength was well above normal Warrior-level creatures.

Most of the soldiers that were stationed in the Northguard Fortress were elites. They just needed to make some contributions here to be allocated to other cities and become officers. The two hundred Summoned Beasts were like a fierce tide as they charged forward!

The Yoked further behind began to make their moves as well. They began to snap their chains ahead. The tips of the chains were extremely sharp, whipping forward in parallel, followed by a howling wind!

The Summoned Beasts quickly scattered to dodge the chains. To their surprise, the chains they dodged ended up intertwining with one another behind them.

Clank!

The chains crashed into one another hard. They soon combined into an enormous net weaving through the beasts.

The Yoked roared again. Their souls seemed to have connected with one another after their prolonged labor. They pulled the chains back simultaneously, like a group of fishermen pulling in a net by the river!

The Yoked were oddly strong. The Summoned Beasts were tripped, knocked to the ground, or dragged away by the chains. The vanguard troop was in total disorder before it even reached the enemy…

“Save me, save me!”

One of the Summoned Beasts that looked like a rhinoceros was tied by the chains. Their sharp tips had stabbed into its body, dragging both it and the Summoner riding it toward the Yoked.

The rest of the Summoners were in a pinch, too. Before they had the chance to lend a hand, the Summoner was already screaming at the top of his lungs before both him and his Summoned Beast were beaten to death!

The skin of a Yoked was dry and rigid, but as sturdy as metal. As they stomped the Mage, his flesh and blood splattered across the ground.

The Brute Rhinoceros Beast had extremely thick skin and flesh, but it looked so fragile under the Yoked’s bloody stomps!

The Yoked grew even more excited and deranged when fresh blood splattered under their feet. It was completely different than the worn out, pitiful, and sorrowful appearance they initially had. Perhaps it was because they were finally able to vent the grudges that had long stacked up in their hearts!

The Summoned Beasts were taken out in bulk. Their blood and liquid scattered while their flesh and bones were laid across the ground. The soldiers on the walls of the fortress could not believe their eyes. These slavish Yoked were beyond terrifying. The vanguard troop was struggling to kill even one of them!

“Retreat!” Bin Wei decisively commanded after seeing the situation.

“If they withdraw, there won’t be anyone guarding the entrance!” Chang Yi said.

“Enough with the meaningless sacrifices, retreat!” Bin Wei said.

“Yes…yes Ma’am!” Chang Yi did not dare to say anything else. He immediately ordered the Summoner Troop to retreat.

The vanguard troop was meant to boost their morale, so the Northguard Fortress had invested a lot in the Summoner Troop. Who could have expected their first wave of attack to be crushed so thoroughly? Didn’t that mean their Northguard Fortress didn’t stand a chance at all?

How were they supposed to fight this battle?

There were more than two thousand Yoked. If killing one of them was already so difficult, could they really defend the Northguard Fortress?
