The Sea Beast Legion has several main forces, such as the Naga Tactical Legion, the Longbeard Legion, and the Arrow Independent Star Unit, among others.
On the Cloud Summit side, there are also particularly outstanding forces, such as Little Tiger's cavalry unit, the Cloud Summit Air Force, and the Battle Beast Legion.
These main forces represent the combat support, source of confidence, and strategic focus for both sides. If something happens to the main force, it would be a significant blow to both parties.
As a top evolver, Little Tiger already possesses the ability to track targets; however, the Demon Whale is too special for him to determine its location.
Yet, when using the Linglan to borrow troops, his shared source ability allowed him to vaguely sense the presence of the Demon Whale.
But he wasn't sure, so he planned to use his own squad to lure this powerful entity out.
The main battle teams are indeed critical, but the Demon Whale, much like Ye Zhongming of the Cloud Summit, is a true pillar. Once the Demon Whale is dead, the battle for Land and Sea will come to an end.
Xia Lei hesitated for a moment.
She understood Little Tiger's intention; once the cavalry charged, they would inevitably penetrate enemy lines. However, that would bring them to the seaside, and if the Demon Whale appeared at that moment, it would cause immense losses to the cavalry unit.
Perhaps, half of the battle team would be annihilated, and even Little Tiger could find himself in danger.
Was it worth it?
"Sister Lei, if the Demon Whale doesn't show up, we will be forced to engage several top evolvers, which is too disadvantageous for us. Look, these guys may seem like they have two main forces right now, but that's about it. They are consuming our firepower and skills through sheer numbers. Once our ranged firepower weakens, and our skills are on cooldown, they will launch a relentless and fierce attack."
"At that point, we won't know if we can hold on; even if we do, we won't know how many lives will be lost."
Little Tiger moved his body, recovering from the state he was in after using Linglan to borrow troops.
Xia Lei did not respond immediately but observed the battlefield for a while before agreeing to the suggestion.
Orders were relayed down, and the entire Cloud Summit was making necessary preparations for this decision.
An important reason that led Xia Lei to make her decision was that the battle between the Five Rings Society and the Naga Tactical Legion was surprisingly smooth.
The Five Rings Society's unified occupation approach had achieved tremendous results; their ranged units demonstrated speed and accuracy, while their melee units showcased organization and order. Even the two nine-star stewards coordinated well with those around them.
The Water Steward had retreated to the center of the formation, alongside Tong Steward, using their abilities to distract the four enemies of equal rank. With the help of their subordinates, they managed to maintain a tenuous hold on the situation.
Without the intervention of top entities, the performance of other lifeforms in battle could better reflect comprehensive quality.
The Naga Tactical Legion's structure was reasonable and self-sufficient, thanks to their ability to fight both close and far while sharing the same bloodline, which made them invincible.
However, the Five Rings Society was currently in a similar situation; the advantage of the Naga Legion lay in having two additional top lifeforms and a total number greater by 150,000.
Unfortunately, they were experiencing a bit of bad luck.
The Five Rings Society had a significant lead in equipment, not only with the masks transmitted back from Ye Zhongming but also their own gear.
The Five Rings Society had a solid financial background.
The Cloud Summit Technology Department's micro-carved bullets, Thunder War Chariots, and various other weapons previously seen in Cloud Summit were unmatched by the Sea Beasts. The magic crystal cannons and magic crystal firearms of the Five Rings Society were also equipped with the latest models.
