Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

The Grand Elder and Second Elder of the Void Race, along with a small elite contingent, were hiding amidst the ruins of an ancient site.

At this moment, the Second Elder of the Void Race, acting as the battlefield commander, had already received reports from the frontlines.

Although it’s a guerrilla war, this first battle must strive for victory.

The first battle is crucial for morale.

If the Void Race wipes out the pursuing disciples of Wa Huang’s Palace, not only will their own momentum be greatly enhanced.

But it can also significantly diminish the morale of the three allied forces. Once their morale wanes, gaps between them will inevitably arise.

Thinking of this, the Void Race approached the massive sand table.

On this sand table, the red dots represent the fleeing Void Race.

The black dots are the Demon Lord’s disciples, the yellow dots are Wa Huang’s disciples, and the fewest golden dots are Buddha’s disciples.

The Void Race’s Second Elder fixed his bright gaze on the sand table, watching the three-race allied forces gathered together.

On the sand table, the soil-colored small dots pursued the red small dots, getting further and further away from the main force of the alliance.

Seeing this scene, the Void Race’s Second Elder was struck with a plan.

”Order the clansmen to keep running, run with all their might!”

”Lure that Wa Huang’s Palace squad farther away, as far from the main force as possible.” After issuing the first order, the Void Race’s Second Elder continued: ”Inform the surrounding clansmen to close in.”

”Rush ahead of them to lay an ambush at all costs, wipe out this squad of Wa Huang’s Palace disciples completely.”

Nato, leading the Wa Huang’s Palace disciples, amounted to only dozens in total.

Meanwhile, there are already a dozen Void Race squads who can reach them, so given the numerical advantage, wiping out Nato and his team should be no problem.

Upon receiving the Second Elder’s orders, the Void Race immediately sprang into action.

But let’s not forget, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha are constantly monitoring the battlefield.

The Divine Sense of Tier One experts can encompass vast areas.

The movements of the Void Race’s teams immediately caught the attention of Demon Lord, Buddha, and Wa Huang.

”More than ten Void squads have appeared, and their paths suggest a shared destination.”

”Wa Huang, they’re planning to surround your Palace’s pursuit team.” Buddha, astutely, saw through the Void Race’s intentions at a glance.

However, seeing the intention is one thing.

Unless Wa Huang, Buddha, and Demon Lord intervene personally, there will inevitably be a timing disparity.

This timing disparity is sufficient for the Void Race to achieve their tactical goals.

Yet, will Wa Huang, Buddha, and Demon Lord intervene personally?

Certainly not.

At least, not now.

Even if they do act, it would only be in desperation after losing this battle and suffering heavy casualties among their disciples.

”See, I was right, wasn’t I?”

”Wa Huang, your disciples might face total annihilation!” Demon Lord said with a sarcastic tone.

”Demon Lord, shut your filthy mouth,” Wa Huang coldly reprimanded Demon Lord, then turned to Buddha and asked, ”What should we do next?”

Now, the battlefield situation had changed.

Previously a small-scale chase, it might now escalate into a large-scale encounter.

”This may not necessarily be a bad thing.”

”Previously, I was worried that the Void Race would hide completely. If they really hide, finding them would be difficult.”

”Now they are actively showing themselves, it’s undeniably advantageous.” After Buddha said this, he looked at Wa Huang and Demon Lord: ”Let’s encircle them and annihilate the Void Race that has come.”

”However, Wa Huang’s Palace disciples must hold them off, preventing them from fleeing.”

”Wa Huang, can your Palace disciples manage it?”

Can they manage it?

With things as they are now, Wa Huang cannot say they cannot manage.

If she did, not only would Demon Lord mock her, but Wa Huang’s own dignity would be at stake.

At this point, whether they can manage it or not, they must manage.

”Though Nato has a childlike nature, he is still capable.”

”Moreover, Peacock Great Ming King is right behind him and should arrive before us.”

”Holding them off shouldn’t be an issue!” Wa Huang replied.

After receiving Wa Huang’s confident response, Buddha immediately mobilized the three allied forces to encircle them as swiftly as possible.

However, no matter how quickly they move now, there’s still a timing disparity here.

At this moment, Nato had already entered the Void Race’s encirclement.

....

....

Tens of Void Race squads, hundreds of their members, had stealthily hidden themselves, lying in ambush in the void.

At this time, oblivious Nato was tenaciously pursuing and had entered the ambush circle.

Actually, before Nato entered the ambush, Wa Huang could have sent a transmission to warn him.

But she didn’t.

Because Buddha’s tactic now is to have Nato and the Wa Huang’s Palace disciples hold off the Void Race, so they can re-encircle them.

If Nato doesn’t enter the ambush circle, the Void Race might just retreat, which naturally makes it impossible to re-encircle them.

Thus, Wa Huang is revealed as ruthless, willing to sacrifice her disciples to achieve her goals.

As soon as Nato entered the encirclement, the Void Race which had been fleeing, made a sudden stop and ceased running.

Far from fleeing, the leading Void Race laughed and said, ”Hahaha!”

”Child, you’ve been tricked!”

Just as the words fell, various long-range magical treasures flew out, crashing towards Wa Huang’s Palace disciples.

”Boom!”

”Boom! Boom!”

All of a sudden, the dazzling lights of treasures bloomed from all sides, causing violent energy shockwaves to radiate outward.

The Wa Huang’s Palace disciples were caught off guard, and in an instant, more than a dozen were killed.

At this moment, Wa Huang’s voice ”timely” resonated in Nato’s mind: ”You’ve fallen into an ambush, hold them off, reinforcements are coming soon.”

”Once the reinforcements arrive, they can wipe them out completely.”

Wa Huang didn’t warn them earlier, nor later; it was after Nato and his team had entered the encirclement, that she warned them.

This is a classic case of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted.

Luckily, Nato had a childlike innocence and didn’t think too much, but if it were someone more astute, they would quickly realize Wa Huang was using them as bait.

At the same time, Wa Huang’s transmission also echoed in Peacock Great Ming King’s mind: ”Nato’s fallen into an ambush, quickly go and support.”

”Don’t worry about killing the enemy, just hold off the Void Race.”

Originally, Peacock Great Ming King intended to slack off.

However, upon hearing that Nato had been ambushed, he actually quickened his pace.

Peacock Great Ming King is principled; Nato is one of the few he has good rapport with in Wa Huang’s Palace.

If he can save Nato, then Peacock Great Ming King is willing to do so.
