Chapter 1099: Chapter 437 Demigods Arrive_3

At the beginning, the strategy Zhou Tian used to establish himself had played a crucial role. It was not an overstatement to say that if it hadn’t been for that method, he might not have grown so quickly. However, as the Beastmen advanced and evolved to have fewer long-range attackers, this strategy, which could have been considered a hidden trump card, had fewer opportunities to play a significant role in the later stages.

After becoming an Emperor-level BOSS, Zhou Tian’s own strength had grown so formidable that he could handle any enemies on his own, and thus he never needed to utilize that strategy with the support of his Beastmen subordinates. freēwebnovel.com

But the fact that Zhou Tian never used that strategy wasn’t because it was unnecessary; fundamentally, he just didn’t need to, which didn’t mean the strategy had become ineffective. In fact, after becoming an Emperor-level BOSS, the number of Vassal Beastmen under his command was immense. Not to mention others, the Centaur Beastman Branch he had intentionally created was already enough to provide him with millions of long-range attacking Beastmen.

However, Zhou Tian had never called upon that strategy simply because there was either no time to prepare or the enemies weren’t worth the effort. So although he had always been aware of this ace up his sleeve, he had never mobilized it until now.

Those NPC Demigods had given Zhou Tian enough preparation time by not taking immediate action against him, and thus, with both time and the necessary abilities on his side, Zhou Tian started to deploy according to his strategy.

What those NPC Demigods were completely unaware of was that Zhou Tian had already moved ninety percent of the members of his Vassal Centaur Monster Races from the rear to the Main City they were now approaching. As they looked down scornfully at the strength of Zhou Tian’s Beastmen, they had no idea that they were already the target of hundreds of thousands of Centaur Warriors.

What followed was naturally very simple.

Zhou Tian had no intention of confronting that group of NPC Demigods alone. He wasn’t stupid and was fully aware of the combat power they represented when united. Even with the combined power of those NPC Demigods, Zhou Tian knew that confronting them directly could lead to dire consequences, which was evident from the outcome of their last encounter—he was clearly not their match.

Therefore, considering the disparity in strength, Zhou Tian would never confront that group of NPCs lightly. Even if combat with them was inevitable, he wouldn’t mind letting his well-prepared Centaur Army give them a taste of his strength first, especially while the NPC Demigods were unprepared.

So, according to Zhou Tian’s plan, when that group of NPC Demigods arrived at the Main City, he didn’t rush to take action himself. Instead, at his command, he ordered the stationed Centaur Army to attack the NPC Demigods.

With Zhou Tian’s order, the million-strong Centaur Army within the occupied Main City launched an attack on the NPC Demigods in the sky. In an instant, countless arrows were unleashed, creating a spectacular and overwhelming scene, instantly darkening the faces of the NPC Demigods.

Those NPC Demigods weren’t stupid; they knew the consequences of being struck by attacks from millions of Beastmen. Even if they were only forced to lose a drop of blood, according to the World Rules of this era, a volley from Zhou Tian’s Centaur Army could kill a domain expert. Even for NPC Demigods, it was impossible to withstand too many of such attacks.

Fortunately for them, once a certain strength level was reached, Zhou Tian’s tactics, though still effective, were diminished in threat. At least when facing the Centaurs’ attack, those NPC Demigods did not show any sign of fear.

Once a certain standard of strength was reached, despite facing Zhou Tian’s tactics, the Centaur Army definitely had the power to shoot down those NPC Demigods considering their own defense and HP. However, because the NPC Demigods possessed various Divine Powers, they only needed to dodge or block the Centaurs’ attacks, and they wouldn’t have to worry about being hurt by them.

Moreover, with the abilities of those NPC Demigods, even though they were caught off guard by the Centaur attack, they still managed to respond promptly with their strength, making it seem not too difficult to fend off the attack of the Centaurs.

Each using their own tactics, like the NPC Demigod who had fought Zhou Tian before, who directly utilized a Time Ability to leave the spot, or a Cultivator who adhered to Fire Element Rules created a barrier of Strange Fire in front of him to incinerate all the Centaurs’ arrows. Even though their tactics varied, those NPC Demigods indeed countered Zhou Tian’s strategy effortlessly with their formidable strength at that moment.

However, when that outcome emerged, Zhou Tian didn’t feel disappointed. He had anticipated this result well in advance. (To be continued.
