The ancestral weapons had absolute dominance in the battlefield.
There were people tasked with the duty of protecting Soul and Ernest.
When the Mountain and River Chart was unfolded, golden light burst out in every direction. The orc army was instantly affected by it.
"Go!" Ernest Jiang threw the Mountain and River Chart out forcefully, it floated through the sky, showering down golden rays of light. The orcs caught in the light turned into dust instantly.
A shadow of a massive mountain came crashing down from the Mountain and River chart. Hundreds of orcs were instantly mashed into paste. This was the power of an ancestral weapon. It still possessed such power even within the ancient battlefield!
The tremendous power of the ancestral weapon caused a part of the orc army to suddenly be shaved away, while the human army managed to continue advancing forward. The goal of both parties at that moment was to rid the opposing party of the ancient battlefield. There would be no chance of a comeback for the party that had been completely cleared off the ancient battlefield.
The entrance to the ancient battlefield was very small, and no one could to stop a second wave of powerful counterattacks.
With the incredible powers of the ancestral weapons, the human army pressed onwards with every step. Their individual fighting abilities were completely inferior to that of the orcs, but with the participation of the ancestral weapons, the humans were able to crush the orcs.
A huge opening had appeared in the formation of the orcs.
"Soul!"
Gardiner yelled.
Soul immediately understood what Gardiner meant. He charged into the opening that had appeared in the orcs' formation with his blood axe, and with a single swing of the axe, a massive fan-shaped gap appeared within the formation of the orcs. The human army immediately charged forward to fill up the gap.
If the battlefield was a huge chessboard, then the area of the chessboard occupied by the human armies was much larger than that of the orcs, and were still slowly pushing on forward. However, everyone knew that this situation would not last for much longer. The ancestral weapons could not be used for long periods of time. The moment the light from the ancestral weapons faded, they would have to rely on their own strength. However, at that moment, things were undoubtedly developing to their advantage.
With the help of the two great ancestral weapons, the vanguards of the humans, a team of elites lead by the generals, attacked the orcs relentlessly, hacking at the every weak point of the orcs they could find. They slaughtered their way in and out of the orc army, dealing a great deal of damage to the morale of the orcs.
"Keep at it!" Gardiner roared.
Ernest nodded. The Mountain and River Chart shone with great power in the sky. Every corner its light could reach repelled the orcs.
The Mountain and River Chart floated towards the army of orcs. Just as it was about to blast out golden rays of light once more, the golden light that filled the sky suddenly dimmed.
"What's going on?!" Gardiner frowned and turned around, only to see a heavily guarded Ernest with a tip of a blade protruding from his abdomen. Behind Ernest stood a soldier of the humans in a heavy suit of armour, no one could see what he looked like.
Ernest spat out a mouthful of blood, and the Mountain and River Chart fell to the ground from the sky. Ernest was no longer able to activate the Mountain and River Chart under those circumstances.
On the other side, Soul was about to activate the blood ax when someone delivered a heavy slash at him from behind. The slash spanned from Soul's left shoulder to the lower right corner of the back of his waist. The wound was deep enough that the bone had become visible. Before Soul could react to that, two swords were placed around his neck. The two soldiers who had Soul by his neck, were also soldiers covered in armour.
"What are you doing?! Have you lost your minds?! Whose soldiers are they?" Gardiner roared.
"Hehe, human leader, without the two of them, your army is nothing." An orc general on the back of a beast said as he charged at them.
At that moment, the soldier who injured Soul lifted his helmet, revealing the face of an orc. The humans immediately understood what was going on!
The orcs had already infiltrated the human army, but the human were completely oblivious to it!
"Keep fighting back, and these two will lose their lives." The orc general sneered.
