Chapter 27 The Purple Evil Sun that Instantly Dominates the Battlefield
As a large amount of magical wind gathered, when the purplish-black sun suddenly appeared above the bandits' heads, Rock felt as if the sky around him had darkened for a moment.
The bandits below the purple evil sun were completely bewildered by the purple sun rising above them.
They had never seen this purplish-black orb of light before, nor did they know what it was. However, the constant howling wind and the increasingly heavy atmosphere made them subconsciously feel that this thing was definitely not a good thing.
Just then, the purple sun suddenly began to spin.
As the purple evil sun rotated, a large swath of purplish-black storms appeared out of thin air around it, quickly forming a tornado over a large area below.
All the bandits touched by this purplish-black energy instantly turned into human-shaped amethyst statues amidst screams, and no one could stop them even for a moment.
"Good heavens, let's get out of here!"
When the other bandits witnessed this terrifying scene, some were stunned on the spot, while others turned and ran without hesitation.
This is terrifying! What kind of evil sorcery is this?
Before this, they thought the smiling lama in the group was already quite strange with his various sorceries. After all, he could make people's heads grow into that shape and fly, and he could make bombs hang under people's heads. Wasn't that weird?
In comparison, the purple evil sun that appeared out of thin air and could turn people into crystal statues in an instant seemed even more sinister to them.
Compared to this terrifying magic, things like flying head gu are nothing but child's play.
The purple evil yang magic was incredibly powerful and had a very large coverage area. In just a moment, hundreds of bandits were turned into crystal statues by this magic.
What's even more terrifying is that the spell didn't stop there. On the contrary, after it was created, it started spinning at an extremely fast speed and kept darting around in all directions.
"Stop! Quick! Wait until the spell wears off before rushing forward!"
Seeing the purple evil sun in the distance begin to fly around wildly, Rock quickly stopped the charging cavalry and ordered them to retreat immediately.
One of the main reasons he didn't like this spell was that it always moved around randomly, with a very unpredictable trajectory.
He didn't know how to control the direction of movement of this thing, at least he hadn't figured it out. Because of this, if the spell was not operated properly, it would cause tons of damage to both sides, without distinguishing between friend and foe.
However, when Rock saw the specific trajectory of the purple evil sun, he breathed a slight sigh of relief, because the purple evil sun was not moving towards him, but instead began to move away from him.
That's good. As long as it doesn't move towards you, it doesn't matter where it goes.
Rock was indifferent to the movement of the spell, but the fleeing bandits were completely dumbfounded.
They thought the spell would only stay in one place and wouldn't randomly wander around, but as soon as they ran out, they found that the purple sun was chasing them and bombarding them!
Several bandits on horseback spurred their horses on, charging forward with all their might, wishing they could just whip the horses to death.
Among these bandits, Liu Heilong's horse was the fastest, which is why he barely escaped. However, the bandits on foot behind him could not run so fast in the snow.
Amidst a series of piercing screams, the bandits could only watch in despair as the purple sun drew closer, turning their last remaining brothers into crystal statues.
The remaining bandits tried their best to escape, but they still couldn't escape the pursuit of the purple sun. Compared to dying on the spot, the feeling of watching death approach and being powerless to stop it was even more devastating.
Some of the bandits who had been stunned earlier only managed to come to their senses at this point.
They touched themselves in disbelief and were relieved to find that they hadn't turned into crystal.
"Damn, this is what they mean by 'fools have all the luck'!"
One of the bandits who had survived the ordeal couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha, you bunch of bastards, why didn't you take me with you when you ran away?"
You didn't expect that, did you? I stood there dumbfounded and wasn't killed by that spell, but you bunch of clever monkeys ran away, and that purple sun chased after you and tried to kill you!
After a long while, the purple sun gradually dissipated as the magical winds were exhausted, but as far as the eye could see, the entire battlefield was littered with the remnants of crystal statues.
One after another, crystal statues of bandits appeared, their expressions and postures filled with terror. They tried to escape, but their lives were forever frozen in that moment.
The remaining bandits were also on the verge of a mental breakdown, completely lacking any will to fight.
They wondered who the expert on the other side was, that he had mastered such terrifying magic, and that he had wiped out almost half of their team in an instant!
Although they had to admit that their team was indeed standing a bit too close together, it shouldn't have caused such terrifying damage, right?
If you didn't know better, you'd think they'd been bombarded by a dozen cannons!
"Great, brothers! The spell's effect's over, now charge upwards!"
Seeing that the purple sun had finally disappeared, Rock breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then, with a wave of his hand, he gave the order to attack to the cavalrymen beside him.
Upon hearing this order, the hunters, who had been somewhat stunned by Rock's command, quickly formed a large horizontal line and charged towards the bandit group ahead.
The bandits finally came to their senses, but when they turned around after hearing the commotion, they found that the cavalry were about to charge at them!
Faced with this situation, most bandits instinctively turned and ran, with only a very few remaining in place to try to resist with gunfire.
Although they knew they could never outrun cavalry in such terrain, knowing this was one thing, but with their minds blank with fear, how could they make a rational judgment?
Besides, if everyone around them starts running, wouldn't it be stupid not to run?
They might not be able to outrun the cavalry, but it would be enough for them to outrun their teammates behind them. Perhaps the cavalry would cut down those who lagged behind and then lose interest in continuing the pursuit?
A burst of gunfire rang out as the hundred cavalrymen raised their carbines and unleashed a volley of fire.
Bullets rained down on the bandits, and almost half of those who were still standing were instantly killed. Even among the remaining bandits who were still running away, many fell to the ground with a thud, twitched a couple of times, and then lay still.
After firing that round, the cavalrymen turned around, planted their guns to the side, drew their sabers, and charged straight at the remaining bandits.
After being subjected to that round of fierce shooting, the remaining bandits didn't even dare to straighten up, and very few of them fired back.
To be honest, if they had fired back at such close range, they might have actually managed to take a few cavalrymen with them before they died, but Rock realized that he had overestimated the fighting spirit of this rabble.
When these cavalrymen charged into the remaining bandits and swung their sabers fiercely, they cut them all down as easily as chopping vegetables.
"General, there's still a band of bandit cavalry left, and they seem to have already run far away!"
Lu Xiong followed closely beside Luo Ke, and after taking a careful look into the distance, he said with some frustration.
Although at the beginning, when Rock threw that purple evil sun, he aimed it at the opposing cavalry, to be precise, he aimed it directly at that strange lama in the opposing team.
This spell instantly killed the spellcaster with the strange abilities on the other side, and also wiped out most of their cavalry. However, the remaining cavalry still managed to run away successfully thanks to their speed.
Faced with this situation, Rock was not particularly worried.
"Don't worry about it, those guys won't get very far!"
As he spoke, Rock pointed to another cavalry unit in the distance that was flanking the bandits from behind.
"And don't forget, I also have these Rakshasa barbarians fighting for me. Although these Rakshasa cavalry are wild and untamed, their warhorses are strong and their temperaments are fierce, making them excellent pursuers!"
Hearing what Rock said, Lu Xiong quickly looked towards the edge of the battlefield on the side, and then he discovered that there was a troop of cavalry relentlessly chasing after the remaining bandit cavalry, catching up with a few of them every now and then and cutting them down with a single blow.
That's it!
He suddenly realized that he had been wondering where Rock's Russian cavalry had gone, but he hadn't expected that they had gone to hunt down the bandit leader.
When the attack began, Rock did not intend to let these Cossack cavalry charge head-on, because he knew that these Cossack cavalry were not good at launching frontal attacks.
Although they were good at fighting, their organization was so poor that their actual impact was not very strong. In particular, their scattered formation was a fatal weakness in cavalry warfare.
But when it comes to pursuing the enemy, they are undoubtedly adept.
These Cossack cavalrymen were like vicious wolves; once they spotted an enemy, they would relentlessly pursue them. Their skilled horsemanship, fierce swordsmanship, and Russian appearance were sure to instill immense psychological pressure in the enemy.
In fact, when Russia used Cossack cavalry in battle, they preferred to have these Cossack cavalrymen harass the rear or let them pursue the enemy when they had the upper hand.
Sending Cossack cavalry head-on into battle would be unreliable.
