My Ten Wives and Ten Rings in the Apocalypse-Chapter 179 The First Territorial Battle

"Those are the new enemies." A voice said among the beings. These beings are the Abyssal Desert Horde. They are from the recon team.

"Yes. Let's report back to the camp." With that, the group disappeared into the yellow sands.

On a dune, a group of men looked at the distance with grave expressions. A howl of sandstorm echoed from the distance, raging toward them. Dust flies everywhere, blocking the view in the distance.

"How are we going to detect the enemy hideout with all this raging storm?" Jackson complained.

Justin had despatched them a couple of hours earlier to survey the surrounding for any Desert Horde. But the continuous raging of storms inside the desert made the mission virtually impossible.

"What are we going to do?" Jackson looked at her twin sister.

"We pass through the storm," Nika said after staring at the storm for a couple of moments. They don't know why the sand was rampant in this area, nevertheless, they can't continue to avoid it while wasting their time. Time is already ticking and if they couldn't find their enemy, then thinking of killing them would be useless.

"Then what are we waiting for, let's get going." Pipe man uttered as he took a large stride forward toward the storm.

Addison looked at the form and squinted her gaze. She thought for a moment and followed after the group. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

Unknown to the group, a group of Desert Hordes hides within the storm looking at the human with a savage expression as they rush toward them '

"Humans are stupid. They are predictable." A horde said to his fellow men with disdain written all over their faces.

Hahaha.

They laughed as they couldn't wait to capture the humans. Inside the desert, the Abyssal Desert Hordes were confident of their desert ability. Besides, the raging sandstorm didn't have any effect on them since its appearance was related to them.

Huh!

A gasp escaped from Addison's mouth as she halted her track. Although the sandstorm was fierce and dangerous. However, everyone in the group was not an ordinary human being, and as such, their physique could withstand the pressure coming from the sandstorm.

"Something isn't right about the storm," Addison whispered.

Hearing this, everyone on the team raised their guard as their eyes moved back and forth.

"What do you see?" Jackson asked with apprehension.

"I'm not sure yet. But I can sense some kind of gaze on us. So we must be careful."

"Be careful everyone. If you find anything strange. Let us know immediately." Nika announced in a low voice.

The group nodded and continued the journey slowly. Inside the storm, the hordes couldn't hear the human but they could sense they had tightened their defense. Nevertheless, the disdain in their eyes never lessened since they believed their cover couldn't be breached.

Inside the storm, everyone covered their faces with thick clothes while forming a tight formation. The further they go inside the storm the more powerful the storm becomes.

Suddenly, Addison halted her track and looked in a particular direction.

"The enemy is on that side." She whispered.

A sudden tension arose among the group when they realized the enemies were hiding inside the storm, nevertheless they maintained their formation, waiting for Nika's order.

"We continue as if we don't know about them," Nika commanded to continue forward.

Hence, the group pretended and continued with their journey. In a couple of minutes, they reached the center of the storm and couldn't find their way back if they wanted to. Just then, they heard a growl from a distance.

"Attacking formation," Nika announced.

At once, the team formed an attacking formation as they looked at the group of hordes racing out of their hide spot.

"Robert and Howard support the people at the rear. I and Pipe man would support the front. Jackson, you secure Addison." Nika commanded with a stern voice.

Amidst the storm, the abyssal desert hordes were sprouting out from the dunes and rushing toward the human in the center from all sides.

"It is time to test the power of inscription." Pipe man's eyes glowed as he fixed his gaze on the huge horde.

One of the leading abyssal hordes noticed Pipe man piercing gaze and smirk. He was a rank 3 abyssal horde and one of the leaders of the team, full of confidence. He raised his huge scythe and dashed toward him as he couldn't wait to drink his blood.

Whoosh!

A whistling sound echoed amid the center of the sand storm. No one knew what the noise was all about until they heard a scream.

Ah!

A thin long sharp metal pierced through the chest of the hordes carrying a huge scythe as if it was nothing.

Thus! ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

The miserable wail shocked the hordes but that didn't stop their advance. Since humans entered their territory, it was a battle to the end.

Meanwhile, Pipe man was surprised by the attacking power of his weapon. He looked at the hovering spear-like weapon and a wild smile appeared on his face.

'When I get back to the ark, I must give Chloe a warm hug.' Thinking of this made his heart skip a beat. He shivered and shrugged.

'I mustn't think like that.'

'Let's kill this beast.'

With that, the whistling sound echoed inside the storm like the cry of the agent of death. In the presence of the metal spear, every horde turned into ants.

The glowing inscription on the spear gave it an ethereal feeling, adding to the fierceness of the weapon.

Before the hordes could attack the formation, the small metal spear harvested more than twenty lives in a blink.

Meanwhile, those in the formation looked at the killing with their mouths agape.

What sort of weapon is that? They cried in their hearts.

"Attack!" Nika made a decisive decision. With Pipe man new weapon ability. They don't need to wait for the hordes to attack them.

Bang! Bang!

The two groups collided and many miserable wails reverberated amidst the sound storm.

The Abyssal Desert Hordes thought they were trying to ambush the humans. Unfortunately, they were the ones being ambushed.

Robert's sword skills were an eye-opener for the group as each of his swings reap the life of a horde. In front of his sword, every grade 2 desert horde wasn't different from ordinary beings.

Howard looked at Robert with a wry smile on his face. He could remember when they joined the ark. But couldn't imagine him having such strength.

At the center of the battle, an ash cloud gathered without anyone near it. Inside the ash cloud, Addison and Jackson watched the brutal battle with various expressions on their faces.

Jackson was grinding his teeth as he wanted to join the battle while Addison looked at humans and hordes with various conflicting expressions. She pities the hordes while also hating the hordes.

"Huh! All the strong hordes had been killed." Nika punched and rammed into the head of hordes and his head shattered.

In the distance, pipe man looked at the surroundings with a pleasant smile on his face.

"What are you doing?" Nika shouted.

"Picking the soul stones." Pipe man responded without raising his head.

Groan!

Black blood gushed out from the mouth of a huge horde. His eyes twitched and he struggled to look up.

"You recover." Pipe man said with a beautiful smile

The horde wanted to curse the evil man with all the curses he knew but when he saw the hovering metal spear. He shivered and kept quiet.

Ah!

The last horde was cut into by Robert's sword and everyone took a deep breath. The group looked at each other and a bright smile appeared on their faces. Although some were injured, none died.

Buzz!

The powerful sandstorm shook vehemently as it began to disappear slowly into thin air. Seeing this, all the humans breathe a sigh of relief. Although they try to adapt to the pressure coming from the storm, it wasn't easy. If not for Pipe man and Robert's extraordinary battle prowess. They would have lost some lives.

[Territorial Battle]

[Grade one abyssal desert horde: 30/2000]

[Grade two abyssal desert horde: 15/1000]

[Grade three abyssal desert horde: 5/500]

At once, the battle stats appeared on everyone's mind and they sighed seeing the number

of kills, they had to make to complete the battle.

"Hmm, only the grade three horde has soul stones.". Pipe man murmured as he kept the five soul stones in his bag. He turned to look at the wounded and said casually.

" Get up and lead us to your hideout."

The horde didn't blink an eye as he fixed his eyes on his dead comrades. Suddenly, a piercing pain assaulted the back of the horde and he screamed in agony, looking at Pipe man with a murderous gaze.

Huh!

Nina and the others arrived beside him as he dragged the hoard to his feet. "Lead the way or get killed." He pointed to the endless dunes.

Although the humans didn't understand how the hordes could speak and understand the human language. Nevertheless, it is quite useful in this case.

After getting stabbed a couple of times, the horde succumbed and led the group into the endless dune.
