Lord Era: I, The Strongest Lord Of The Abyss!

"They're reacting!"

Li Mengmeng, who had just switched her perspective back from her territory, was pleasantly surprised to find that the demon warriors who had been hunted down one by one by the centaur warriors were finally making moves.

And the reason she was so pleasantly surprised was because she discovered that this unknown new lord seemed to be... a complete newbie?

It turned out that Li Mengmeng was standing on the branch of a giant tree in the center of the forest.

At this height, she could fully utilize her Druid abilities to monitor the movements of most of the forest at once.

And from her perspective, the demons under Wu Wei's command were making a nearly fatal mistake under their lord's foolish command.

This "newbie lord", knowing that his own agility was inferior to that of the centaur warriors, didn't choose to retreat as a group, but instead split into nearly twenty small teams!

You should know that if classified according to the troop types in many worlds, the centaur warriors can basically be considered light cavalry, and "mounted rangers" with archery capabilities.

And the lesser demons and imps under Wu Wei can be classified as light infantry without any defensive capabilities.

Given the significant differences in troop types between the two sides, Li Mengmeng believed that Wu Wei's best strategy was to concentrate his superior forces, gather all his soldiers into a "large regiment", and retreat as quickly as possible towards the portal near the grassland, even if it meant being attacked by the centaurs.

This is because light cavalry is not suitable for charging into formations; they are better suited for harassment and raids.

Using their mobility to constantly harass, roam, and snipe high-value targets and isolated soldiers outside the formation is what they would do.

Rushing into a large number of troops would only result in heavy losses for them as well, due to their lack of armor.

Therefore, according to Li Mengmeng's understanding, only if Wu Wei chose to gather his warriors together, forming a "large regiment" that even centaur warriors would not dare to charge into, would this "large regiment" have a chance to escape this forest, which had already bared its fangs, at the cost of nearly half its casualties.

Moreover, this wasn't the most fatal mistake Wu Wei had made.

The direction of the lesser demons and imps in these twenty small teams was extremely chaotic!

So chaotic that Li Mengmeng couldn't bear to look.

Some teams were heading towards the portal.

Others were heading towards the depths of the forest.

Still others were heading in unknown directions, changing their destination three times a minute, and sometimes even blocking the retreat routes of other teams.

And all around them, terrible centaur warriors were lying in ambush!

They were waiting to quench their thirst for the enemy's blood with their scimitars and the arrows on their backs.

These small teams fighting on their own had no way to contend with the agile and fierce centaur warriors.

In short, these nearly three hundred demon soldiers were doomed!

"Hahaha, I really didn't expect that someone with such good luck, being the first to come to the trial continent to harvest resources, would be a newbie who doesn't even know basic military knowledge!"

"If I had known, I wouldn't have worried so much. Such a foolish person will be eliminated by other lords sooner or later."

Li Mengmeng, transformed into a sparrow, stood on the branch, jumping up and down excitedly.

"Now, I can finally relax and build my territory. Such a long period of dual operations is almost too much for even someone as clever as me!"

But just as Li Mengmeng ended her possession and waited in her territory for Ursoc Windrunner to bring the good news of slaughtering all the demon warriors, Ursoc Windrunner sensed something was wrong.

No...

Something was very wrong!

————————————

"Swish!"

Strong and powerful Ursoc Windrunner picked up his bow and aimed at a lesser demon at the rear of a team, shooting an arrow.

The next second, the lesser demon, unable to dodge in time, was pierced through by the arrow and died on the spot.

But the other lesser demons in front of it turned around collectively with great cunning, running towards the depths of the forest without looking back. Although Ursoc Windrunner could easily catch up and continue to hunt them down like beating a dog in the water.

But he didn't do so.

Because the position they were running to was not suitable for him to pursue, and second...

"Damn it, you're late!"

"Didn't I say you all had to follow my pace closely?"

Six centaur warriors trotted up to Ursoc's side, wiping the sweat from their foreheads as they spoke.

"Sorry, Chief, we were originally following behind you, but a team of isolated monsters appeared near us, so we chased after them to attack."

Before Ursoc Windrunner could get angry, the other centaur warriors quickly explained.

"Chief, don't be angry yet. The distance between that team of monsters and us was indeed not far."

"Yes, yes, their distance was just right for us to draw our bows and shoot, so we attacked them first!"

"Once they detour a little further, we won't be able to attack them. After all, if we chase too deeply, we won't be able to reunite with you."

Seeing his warriors so confident, Ursoc Windrunner couldn't blame them too much.

After all, they weren't slacking off, but expending their energy to attack their common enemies.

"Alright, I understand."

Ursoc nodded.

"But how many monsters that defile Mother Nature did you kill just now?"

Hearing this, Ursoc was surprised to find that these best and most forthright men in the tribe were hesitant for a moment.

After much delay, one of the warriors finally mustered the courage to say.

"Two... two."

Hearing this, Ursoc almost turned red with anger.

"Only two? You are simply shaming the ancestors of the Windrunners! You carry bows and arrows, not toys for children!"

"Ancestors above, there are six of you, and you only killed two monsters?"

"And even for this, you lost contact with me and didn't keep up with my pace!"

Hearing Windrunner's words, the other warriors blushed with shame.

Six people, six bows, a volley of arrows to kill two people.

Such a record would be laughed at in any centaur tribe.

"Chief, it's not our fault."

"It's really that those monsters are too cunning. Although they look a hundred times uglier than the ugliest goblins, the moment they discovered us attacking them, they immediately turned around collectively and ran in another direction."

Hearing this, Ursoc suddenly sensed a familiar feeling.

Why were these six warriors having such similar encounters to his just now?

Something seems wrong!

——————————

In the abyss.

A newborn abyss lord was looking at the map in his mind, at this forest about to fall, at these confused and tired centaur warriors, and revealing an incomparably evil smile.

"Welcome to."

"My domain!"
