"What a realm of vibrant vitality, where all things compete."
Bai Luo looked at Snow Empress, who was floating beside him. Her current form was like an elf or goddess emerging from ice and snow, ethereal and sacred, making it impossible for anyone to harbor even a hint of blasphemous thoughts.
"That remark is a bit inauspicious, isn't it?"
To better understand Bai Luo, Snow Empress had learned many things about Blue Star from him.
"Haha."
Bai Luo laughed, not caring about the meme at all: "In short, the advantage is with me!"
"..."
Snow Empress said speechlessly, "Just keep jinxing it."
However, to be fair,
Bai Luo's side had a truly significant advantage against Conqueror.
The strength of the Eighteen Wolf Guards was stronger than that of ordinary A-rank Heroic Spirits, second only to Zhu Cai and Zi Yuan.
The strength of Star Fang's leader was not much worse than Ice Empress, making him one of the two main forces in this great battle.
And under his leadership, eighteen A-rank peak Heroic Spirits, leading a group of wolves of various forms, comparable to B ~ B+ rank Heroic Spirits, each occupied their respective positions, completely surrounding Conqueror's army!
"Ready, please give your command."
04 Seeing this, Ice Empress, abandoning her usual ferocity, respectfully awaited Bai Luo's instructions.
"Attack."
Bai Luo stood far at the back, his tone calm as he gave the order.
"Roar~~~"
The Wolf Guards of the Eighteen Clans enveloped them from all directions.
"All forces, advance!!!"
The five-thousand-strong army of Hobgoblins, led by Ligulude and his two sons, pushed forward.
The Oni were divided into two.
One part protected Bai Luo, while the other 100, led by Zi Yuan, spearheaded the charge.
"My Lord?!"
A massive ice-blue wolf beast emerged from above Bai Luo's head, but the sound coming from its mouth was a young girl's voice.
"Wolf Clan, don't worry about formations, charge straight through."
Ice Empress listened to Wei Er's command, relaying orders on her behalf.
The Wolf Clan's speed was far greater than that of the Goblins and Oni.
Moreover, their massive size allowed them to effectively disrupt the enemy's formation.
"It's finally our turn!"
"That army over there belongs to our Yan Clan, no one is allowed to snatch it from me!"
"This side is mine!"
"Hahaha, charge, kill them all!"
"Roar!!!"
The first to strike was Bing Ya, riding a giant frost wolf.
This ice wolf was a hundred meters tall, formed by the convergence of dozens of ice-elemental wolves. Its strength, aside from its recovery ability, was absolutely no less than that of the Great Sea Demon in the original work.
"Sorcerers, prepare!"
"Form up!"
However, the massive wolf head failed to break into Conqueror's army formation, but was blocked by an invisible magical barrier a thousand meters away.
"Hmm?"
Bing Ya frowned. She looked down and saw a group of sorcerers in hooded robes, led by an old man, casting defensive magic.
And not just the front, but all four sides were enveloped by a magical barrier.
This forced the charging Wolf Clan to stop and look for a breakthrough opportunity.
"Damn it!"
The girl swung her ice halberd, and a terrifying freezing ray blasted forward like a storm: "Get out of my way, old man!"
"How dare you be so presumptuous!"
The old man held an ancient book, his expression solemn, staring intently at Bing Ya and the frost giant wolf that was continuously crashing against the barrier.
Porus, the king of the Punjab region in ancient India, was defeated by Alexander in the "Battle of the Hydaspes River."
Alexander, admiring his courage on the battlefield, appointed him as the local governor, responsible for managing the southeastern territories.
And within the King's Army, Porus was a supreme expert known as a Great Lord.
His mastery of magic knowledge was only comparable to another 'savior,' Ptolemy.
"Crack!"
"Hmm?"
Porus frowned, because the barrier he had set up with hundreds of sorcerers was actually starting to break.
"Hmph."
However, Porus did not panic. Instead, he mocked, "On the battlefield, being too focused on one thing can put oneself in danger."
"What?"
Before Bing Ya could ask what Porus was saying, a deafening thunderous roar came from above her head.
"Moo~~~"
The Flying Hoof Thunder Bull, dragging the Chariot of the Gods, descended from the sky with the might of wind and thunder, and its target was precisely Bing Ya, standing at the highest point, and the frost giant wolf beneath her feet.
"Heh, do you think only you have helpers?"
"Boom!"
Golden lightning and blue-purple thunder collided in the sky. They tore and clashed with each other, like two terrifying thunder beasts vying for supremacy of the firmament.
For a moment, the sky and earth flickered, and the world hummed, drawing everyone's gaze towards the battling sides.
"Swish!"
"You're running too fast, Bing Ya."
A majestic golden wolf-man suddenly appeared beside Bing Ya. He stood with his arms crossed, and countless golden electric arcs leaped around him: "Leave the battle in the sky to the professionals."
"Now, come with me and break this turtle shell!"
"Good!"
As Bing Ya's words fell, Lei Ya stomped downwards.
Instantly, a large amount of lightning, starting from his footfall, poured into the frost giant wolf's body, transforming it from its original ice-blue to golden.
"Roar~~~"
Thunder and ice 193 frost mixed, transforming into a beam of light even more terrifying than before, spewing from the golden giant wolf's mouth, violently crashing against the defensive spell laid down by Porus.
"We cannot let this attack land!"
Conqueror saw the terror of this strike. He raised his Treasure, 'Distant Ravaging Domination': "Stop it!"
"Moo!!"
The Flying Hoof Thunder Bull, imbued with its master's magic, instantly gained immense power.
The thunderstorm, which could originally only control a small area, began to spread in all directions, showing signs of covering the entire battlefield.
"Hmm?"
The current situation was somewhat beyond Bai Luo's expectation: "Such a large-scale magic coverage, with Conqueror's magic..."
"So that's it."
Suddenly, Bai Luo thought of something...
He looked at Waver beside Conqueror; the back of his hand no longer had the red Command Seals.
"Is it the power of the Command Seals?"
"Before the battle, that kid, just like in the original work, gave all the magic from his three Command Seals to Conqueror."
If that was the case, Bai Luo was no longer surprised by Conqueror's current display of strength, which far exceeded what was shown in the anime.
In fact, if he hadn't encountered Jin Shan Shan, who was his natural enemy,
Conqueror would definitely have been the most troublesome Heroic Spirit in the Fourth Holy Grail War...
