Now everyone in Mark City knows that Donald is a human from Earth, and whenever he uses these gold coins, it signifies that these creatures died on Earth and were turned into coins by someone. Then, these two former colleagues learned about this matter as well. They initially wanted their champions to charge the formation; if they reached the hilltop, they would join and celebrate. But who would have thought Malin, this killer star, would be atop the hill? In other words, if Malin had acted two seconds later, the two Great Demons might have delivered themselves right to his doorstep. Then, they saw Malin wielding his sword light, slicing through all their subordinates. Their strongest subordinate was utterly terrified, and now they don’t know where it’s hiding. They are extremely embarrassed — they cannot breach this human defense line, and the more they go up, the more they die. The humans on the opposite side endure their firepower while transporting soldiers and supplies, which they can see but are powerless to prevent — they’ve calculated human strength, one on one, the super-capable human could probably kill one of them effortlessly, and for both of them, it might take some time to slaughter them in turn. If only their subordinates were present at this time, they could let them attack those aircraft. This involves a problem, the core of which is if they could do it over again. How could it be? The two Great Demons are enduring days like years now — if Malin comes to kill one of them, what would the other one do? This is the greatest conundrum in their hearts right now. With this thought, the battle continued into the afternoon. On Malin’s side, the machine gun group had long since worn out their guns, completely replacing parts, even causing the solid wood stocks to crack from continuous operation. But these machine gun groups, time and again, turned Chaos’s concentrated charges into collective suicides. Such results reinforced all commanders’ beliefs — no matter what, their troops need such machine gun groups. Not in large numbers, but definitely in defense battles. Compared to using Immortal Masters to deal with Chaos’s concentrated charges, machine guns can free Immortal Masters to combat Chaos Sorcerers more efficiently. Moreover, after fitting the appropriate magnification scopes, machine guns can also kill Chaos Sorcerers from long distances — heavy long barrels allow the machine gun bullets to fly smoothly as silk. And armor-piercing bullets blessed by Holy Oil have a natural advantage in combating Chaos, making the era of sacrificing soldiers’ lives for the chance to kill a Chaos Sorcerer a thing of the past. When the Chaos returned without success once again, a big figure on the newly arrived landing craft appeared before Malin — Sage Yu is in front of him. "Malin, thank you for waiting; reinforcements will arrive soon. The Zhenjiang-Nanjing metropolitan area has just recruited retired soldiers to form two brand new legions; they will launch offensives from both sides. We’ve gathered more than half of the South’s legendary figures; the time has come to eradicate these Chaos once and for all!" "That’s great." To be honest, to eradicate these Chaos completely, to sweep them into the rubbish heap of history, is what Malin most wants to achieve — if any Chaos had a home, it would surely be a history book called ’rubbish pile.’ Ten minutes later, when the Chaos gathered troops to prepare for an attack again, Malin heard the call of a hawk. A giant eagle flew over the zenith, and then on the distant horizon, Malin saw the net formed by people retracting, just like Sage Yu planned before. Malin erected the Dimensional Anchor — to prevent the Great Demons and Chaos Sorcerers from escaping. The soldiers quickly spotted the reinforcements in the distance. They began cheering, though it’s unclear who started it, eventually calling out Malin’s name. Malin felt the power of belief once again, but this time, he didn’t show any displeasure — this was the soldiers’ purest sentiment, and Malin didn’t want to let these young people down. "We are going to witness the greatest annihilation battle of this millennium." Sage Yu’s proud statement sounded beside Malin. ...May the Union battle flag never fall. For some reason, Malin thought of this slogan. This was once the battle cry of Earth’s Union warriors. After eight millennia, the Thaenan Union... the last successor of Earth’s Union, has once again accepted and shouted this slogan. Thinking of this, Malin walked out of the trench. He looked at the bewildered Chaos below, looked at the soldiers who were watching him, and finally, Malin raised his hand, opened it, clenched it. "May the Union battle flag never fall!" Thus, the cheers turned into a united shout. Soldiers cheered, soldiers wept, soldiers didn’t even know, according to satellite confirmation, if they truly annihilate the Chaos in this area, the road north, until they reach Tianjin before them, will be a clear path — the Thanan’s often-mentioned Northward campaign has once again reached the so-called historical turning point. The Chaos wanted to escape, but under Malin’s command, the soldiers started proactively emerging from trenches to shoot back at the Chaos. Reinforcements were already visible to the naked eye; soldiers jumping down from the Earth Dragon’s side seats began joining the battle. Malin drew dual swords, confronted the two Great Demons — some Chaos Sorcerers had legendary figures to keep an eye on them; the enemies in Malin’s view were only these two Great Demons who completely lost their fighting spirit. Their cunning had no meaning in front of Malin; like a cat playing with mice, Malin controlled them until no other Chaos was left on the field, then beheaded one Great Demon appearing as a zombie. Malin looked at the other kneeling Great Demon, its body entirely controlled by Spiritual Energy. The unparalleled intensity defeated this Great Demon utterly. Malin personally chopped off this octopus-faced head; Spiritual Energy twisted its brain and will. Sheathing his dual swords, Malin turned around and met the Meng girl he released from the Semi-Plane amidst the soldiers’ roaring cheers. "You’re such an incorrigible male chauvinist jerk! Like a jerk people can’t hate!" Meng Quyi seemed to have cried, maybe because she worried about Malin, maybe because she couldn’t be with Malin... But ultimately she flew into Malin’s arms, eliciting cheers from countless people. After comforting Meng Quyi, Malin patted her head, asking her to help the medics. The girl detached from her prior fury, said ’OK’, and went to find her peers. Malin turned to face Sage Yu; although this Sage is a Domestic Fairy, he stubbornly fought on the front line in the final battle, wearing Power Armor. The New Anzhou engineer corps fought like they were on adrenaline in front of their Sage, but Sage Yu repeatedly pushed away the Gnomes who wanted to block potentially incoming bullets for him. Now, this Sage covered in blood walked up before Malin: "The soldiers trust you, one could even say they believe in you, do you feel it?" "Yes, I feel it." Malin nodded, there was no way to deny it. "Look, Mr. Malin, are you ready to become a god? If you’re willing, both us and your Westland, I suppose many would believe in you." Sage Yu mentioned the matter of becoming a god again. Malin froze for a moment, then laughed bitterly: "Let’s discuss this after I return from the North, shall we?" "North... that place, for you, is indeed very important?" Sage Yu’s face shows mild confusion. To Malin, indeed, that place is much more important than becoming a god and saving the world. "Alright then, we’ll wait for your return, but before heading north, could you lead us in liberating Tianjin? Satellite images show, once Tianjin is liberated, Chaos will no longer exist in the North, quite amazing, right?" Seeing Sage Yu’s smile, Malin nodded in understanding. "I will, the soldiers believe in me, I will strive to succeed." I will do it because I will not let the soldiers’ trust in me be betrayed.
