《My Passive Skills are Invincible!》Chapter 140: Arrogant Generals
Advertisement
At the border between the Trolls and the Dwarves, Hamina Basin.
The two supreme commanders of this war met.
Iron Felted Orne of the Dwarves and Augustine Tim of the Trolls.
Behind them were 30,000 warriors and adventurers of their own race, each of them the best of the best.
In total, there were 60,000 warriors and a large number of players!
This was the advantage of forming an alliance.
Because of this alliance, they did not have to worry about being attacked by each other.
Therefore, the cities near the border did not need to reserve too many city guards.
This allowed them to deploy a large number of soldiers into the war.
However, humans could not do that.
They had to leave enough soldiers to defend the city while sending troops into the war.
Otherwise, the enemy could take advantage of these empty cities.
Once the cities were captured, the human territory would be completely exposed to the enemy's blade.
The citizens would be assualted.
This was a situation that the humans could not accept.
Therefore, the situation was not optimistic for the humans.
Under such circumstances, a large number of players from the Dwarves and Trolls participated in the war.
No one was an idiot. They could see that the humans would most likely be the loser of this war.
Therefore, these players were willing to participate in the war even though their levels were not high.
To put it nicely, it was called fighting for their own race.
To put it bluntly, this was to reap benefits!
After all, the battlefield was a large meat grinder.
As long as one threw themselves into it, they would basically be crushed upon contact.
Death was very painful and serious in the eyes of the natives.
However, in the eyes of the players, this represented a large number of spoils of war.

This was enough for them to come forward and take risks.
Even if they died, it did not matter. They would only lose 10% of their experience points.
As long as they could pick up a few more pieces of equipment, they would be able to make a huge profit!
These were all truly valuable items!
Every player had the idea of making a huge profit, so their morale was very high. Everyone was ready to fight, ready to attack at any time!
Orne and Tim looked at the powerful army behind them and looked at each other.
They seemed to have seen victory.
The only thing left to consider was the distribution of the spoils of war.
The ownership of the City of Light was what everyone was most concerned about.
It seemed inappropriate to consider the distribution of benefits before the end of the war, but no one cared.
Could the humans still have the possibility of winning this war?
Even if god came, it would probably be useless!
The long wait and the soon-to-come victory made both the generals' hearts restless and uneasy.
"After waiting for so long, why hasn't the vanguard force received any news of victory?"
Orne looked up at the scorching sun in the sky and could not help but wipe his sweat.
Tim spoke arrogantly,
"In my opinion, there's no need for us to wait any longer. This kind of waiting is meaningless."
Orne smiled slightly and spoke with the same arrogance,
"That's right, I think so too. Even if we can wait, the warriors behind us are not willing to wait any longer.
"They are warriors who are ready to sacrifice their lives for their country. There's no need for them to bask in the sun for such a weak enemy."
The two of them hit it off and decided to set off immediately.

The warriors did not care about this.
They were soldiers. Their duty was to obey orders.
However, the players clapped and cheered.
These players wanted to take advantage of them. They were not willing to waste their time here.
The two generals were very satisfied with the players' cheers.
They could not demand the adventurers to follow the rules. They were already satisfied with such a positive reaction.
"Then... Let's go!"
Orne raised and waved his hand. The soldiers behind him shouted in unison,
"Yes sir!"
The large group of nearly 100,000 people was ready to move forward.
However, at this moment, Tim narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.
"Wait, is someone approaching from there?"
Logically speaking, with a great battle brewing, no one would care about an individual.
This would hardly have any effect on the battle situation.
However, Tim cared.
Because he felt that this was the soldier who had received the news of victory.
The soldiers must have been dissatisfied after waiting for so long.
If this soldier could bring good news from the front line, it would be a great help to morale.
It would definitely raise the morale of the troops to the highest point!
That was why he brought up this matter.
Hearing Tim's words, Orne immediately understood Tim's thoughts.
He smiled and said,
"I believe this must be the news of victory from the soldiers on the frontline.
"Soldiers, although we have waited for so long, the soldiers on the frontline have specially brought news of victory. Let's listen carefully."
Hearing this, the soldiers also laughed out loud.
There were even quite a number of people who raised their weapons and cheered loudly.
Everyone felt that the victory of this battle was within their grasp.
The morale did indeed rise, and this was what the two generals were willing to see.
Everyone was patiently waiting for that figure to approach.
Though gradually, everyone realized that something was not right.
Because the figure was too... relaxed.
Yes, relaxed.
If it was a soldier in charge of reporting news, he should be traveling at the fastest speed. After all, no one would want to waste time when it came to the passing of good news.
At the same time, Orne and Tim had a thought in their minds.
Such a lazy soldier must be a Troll or Dwarf.
Both of them revealed a mocking smile but still said nothing.
However, in the next moment, the smile on their faces froze and even gradually turned into anger.
Because they saw a large number of figures appear on the horizon.
"What's the situation? Why did they come back?"
Orne could not help but scold.
Even if the vanguard unit won, they could not come back immediately. They should wait for the main unit to come back.
How could they be soldiers if they acted so casually?!
Orne and Tim had already decided that they would give them a good scolding when they arrived.
They should not be complacent after defeating such weak humans.
With this thought in mind, the two arrogant people glared at the large group of figures in front of them.
However, gradually, the soldiers became restless.
The atmosphere in the entire Hamina Basin seemed to have changed a little.
That was because they could feel a strong killing intent faintly assaulting their faces.
This did not seem like the right atmosphere if the vanguard troops were here to report their victory!
When the other party had already gotten close to a certain distance, Orne finally noticed something strange.
"Wait, those guys seem to be... humans?
"How is this possible!?"
Tim quickly gave an order,
"Quick, pick up your weapons and get ready for battle!
"Those humans are actually attacking us!"
