The method was incredibly simple, yet in practice, it proved to be quite effective. Even Zhou Tian couldn’t deny that the strength of those NPC demigods was indeed much greater than his own—should they truly surround and assault him, he would be no match for them.
It was precisely because of the fear of such a scenario that Zhou Tian had prepared the Centaur Legion as reinforcements in advance. However, judging by the current situation, the role of the Centaur Legion was still limited. As some of the NPC demigods stepped forward to block their attack, the centaurs’ actions to assist Zhou Tian were completely halted. Given the circumstances at the time, without any accidents, those centaurs wouldn’t be of much help to Zhou Tian.
In truth, given the circumstances at the time, Zhou Tian’s efforts appeared to have little effect. Now, with the centaurs unable to help him any longer, Zhou Tian was surrounded by that group of NPC demigods. If there were no accidents, it was feared that Zhou Tian would face defeat before long.
Once defeated, everything for Zhou Tian would come to an end.
Of course, it was clear that Zhou Tian wouldn’t simply be defeated so easily. Zhou Tian didn’t claim to fully understand the strength of those NPC demigods but he wasn’t completely ignorant either, having had some dealings with them. After engaging in combat with them, Zhou Tian was well aware of their power.
Since Zhou Tian was aware of the strengths and dangers of those NPC demigods, if he hadn’t made the corresponding preparations and wasn’t confident that he could defeat them, it was unlikely that he would have made such arrangements. And per Zhou Tian’s plan, since he dared to present himself before the NPC demigods, it certainly wasn’t easy for them to take him down with their current tactics.
Consequently, as the NPC demigods prepared to besiege Zhou Tian, he didn’t take any other actions, and very soon, they encountered danger.
The Centaur Legion was indeed one of the cards Zhou Tian had prepared to counter those NPC demigods, but they weren’t his only strategy. Knowing the strengths and dangers of the NPC demigods, Zhou Tian had certainly made thorough preparations. In addition to the centaurs, the same tactics could be used elsewhere.
Long-range joint attacks weren’t only applicable to long-range attack troops like the centaurs; almost any long-range attack could employ that tactic. For the past Zhou Tian, the long-range attack legion was undoubtedly his trump card. While the tactic was effective, the long-range legion’s status existed because there was no other place Zhou Tian could use this tactic.
But was Zhou Tian still in the same situation now?
When Zhou Tian first used that tactic, he wasn’t even considered a sect leader. With the conditions back then, apart from his own troops, Zhou Tian had no other means to dispose of. Thus, being able to kill his formidable foes using that limited tactic under those conditions was already commendable.
However, now Zhou Tian had become an emperor-level boss, ruling several continents and possessing a large number of living career monsters. Under those circumstances, although Zhou Tian didn’t deliberately develop them, his resources were no weaker than those of human countries from several epochs ago.
Given Zhou Tian’s current power, if he really wanted to leverage any strength, naturally, nothing would be difficult for him anymore.
As a result, apart from those centaurs, Zhou Tian had prepared another force for the NPC demigods.
Magic crystal weapons!
In terms of destructive power, magic crystal weapons were far stronger than the arrows of the centaurs. Aside from the downsides of high consumption and difficulty in moving them under normal circumstances, magic crystal weapons were absolutely a force to be reckoned with, surpassing the Centaur Legion. Theoretically, since magic crystal weapons also fell into the category of long-range attack power, Zhou Tian’s tactics could naturally be applied to them as well. And considering their destructive strength, once Zhou Tian combined the power of the magic crystal weapons with his tactics, the resulting force would be more than a hundred times stronger than that of the Centaur Legion.
Because of the issue of consumption, Zhou Tian had kept the magic crystal weapons as his hidden trump card until now, when he finally started to use them. freeweɓnøvel.com
However long Zhou Tian had kept them concealed, a hidden trump card is still a trump card. If those magic crystal weapons couldn’t perform their expected role, then Zhou Tian would have been hiding them for nothing.
Following Zhou Tian’s previous instructions, as the NPC demigods were preparing to teach Zhou Tian a lesson and before they could act against him, a terrifying wave of magic energy suddenly emanated from below them. At that moment, the majority of the NPC demigods became uneasy.
Magic attacks were considered low-level against those NPC demigods, but no matter how low-level the attack, as long as it reached a certain strength standard, even the lowest technique could pose a threat to them.
Clearly, considering the collective firepower of the magic crystal weapons arranged by Zhou Tian, even the NPC demigods, if hit by such an attack, might be at risk of death. Facing the attack coming from below, those NPC demigods dared not be careless.
