The next afternoon, I returned to the workshop early in the morning. By the time I logged on, Heavenly Key City was already packed with players. Players from Battle Soul, Autumn Rain, Wishing Pond, Temple of the Moon and other large guilds of White Cloud City were all gathered here.
Spring And Autumn Dance saw that I was online and quickly sent me a message: "Almost everyone is here. The vanguard has reached the outskirts of the Wildlands and is only two hours away from Beast Soul City. Should we head over now?"
"Mn."
I grabbed the North Nether Sword and headed to the grocery store. I bought a couple of return scrolls and repaired my equipment. Then, I left the city.
A few minutes later, Ling Xue, Bing Cha and Ling Yue came online one after another. All three of them were players of Heaven Domain and the main force of the siege. I had forced them to leave the office and bring them back.
After we formed a party, Ling Yue said, "Scholar, Ling Xue will take us there. You go scout ahead."
"Okay!"
I summoned T-rex and Xiaoqing let out a long howl. Then, she turned into a cyan rune and appeared on my shoulder armor. Her stats were greatly increased and her movement speed was as fast as lightning. The blood-red wings of the War God's Temple spread open behind my back and I shot off the ground like a bloody meteor toward Beast Soul City.
… …
I sent a message to Spring And Autumn Dance: "Is there any reaction from Holy Helm City?"
Spring And Autumn Dance replied, "When we were gathering our troops, Dark Roar seemed to be on the move. However, because the map was destroyed by the Annihilation Abyss, Holy Helm City's troops were blocked when they reached Silver Fir Plains. Their only way out is to take a detour to Clear Breeze City and rescue Beast Soul City. However, Clear Breeze City is heavily guarded by Autumn Rain and Battle Soul. He can't get there at all."
"Alright, got it. I'll head to the Beast Soul City first to check out the situation!"
Spring And Autumn Dance, Shadow Follower, and the others looked up and laughed, "Scholar has gone over first. Brothers, pick up your speed. Don't let the guild leader get cut up by the Hindustanis alone. Barbaric Throne and Atlas are very brave!"
Everyone roared with laughter.
Half an hour later, with my powerful movement speed, I arrived at a green mountain range. Coming from the Barbarian Lands, I had to cross this mountain to reach the Beast Soul City. The Indians called this green mountain range the Great Green Mountain, worshiping it as their Great Wall of Protection.
"Pa!"
I landed steadily on the peak of the Great Green Mountain and swung my North Dark Sword. With two "Cha Cha" sounds, a mountain tiger pounced over and opened its bloody mouth, intending to teach the stranger who had entered its territory a lesson. Unfortunately, it underestimated the stranger's strength and was cut in half with a grunt, its innards splattering all over the ground.
I sheathed my sword and looked in the direction of the Beast Soul City. As expected, the majestic main city stood in the distance like a giant. The Beast Soul City was very large, not smaller than Fierce Tiger City. It was originally Canada's territory, but unfortunately it was occupied by the Indian army led by Barbaric Throne. It was also because of this large main city that India was able to hold its own in this chaotic world. It was so large that it was able to fight against the American server and China server.
"Hua!"
I entered Shadow Evasion and flew at a low altitude. I flew quickly above the forest and checked the map first.
Not long after I flew, I suddenly saw a large patch of leaves in the forest swaying. Looking closely, I saw a dense group of Indian players hiding in the forest. Most of them were archers and mages, and their guilds were very diverse. There were Fierce Tiger Alliance, Sky Pillar Alliance, and all kinds of other guilds.
A rough calculation showed that there were at least a hundred thousand troops here, densely covering both sides of the forest canyon.
These people were very experienced. They all relied on the cover of the forest, so the players on the ground couldn't see them at all. Fortunately, I was flying high in the sky.
Among the crowd, a tall but unusually wretched Level 275 Holy Archer was obviously the commander. He lowered his voice and shouted like a duck in the pond, "Hurry up! I've received reports that those Chinese brats started moving three hours ago. Their target must be the Beast Soul City. Hehe, it takes them five hours to get to the Beast Soul City, but we only need half an hour to set up an ambush here. Today, we'll kill every single one of these arrogant b * stards that come, don't even think about leaving!"
As he said this, the Holy Domain archer pointed at the canyon in front of him and said, "There is only one valley in Mount Daqing. They will definitely go there. Everyone, be alert and don't be stingy with your arrows. Shoot as hard as you can. Boss said that the cost of materials and potions for this Nation War will be reimbursed!"
Everyone lowered their voices and laughed. It was obvious that they were very satisfied with this treatment.
At this time, the Holy Domain archer said, "Jack, have your supply troops arrived?
We must rely on your support to completely suppress the enemy. You've seen the power of the China, and an ambush is far from enough. "
A heavy-armored swordsman nodded. "They're here. 1200 Flamethrowers, 1000 Boulder Catapults, and a large number of boulders and thunder carts have been prepared at the top of the mountain. This time, we are well-prepared. Let's see how the China will die!"
"Hehe, well done!"
The Holy Domain archer laughed arrogantly. "We lost too badly in the battles at Fierce Tiger City and Ice Wolf City. This time, we will take back our losses with interest!"
"Haha, you're right, squad leader!"
At this time, a black shadow appeared in the sky. It was extremely fast, and it was a Owl Knight. In reality, it was a knight riding a wild owl. It was fast, low Attack, low Defense, and average HP, so most players preferred to be a ground knight. However, this Owl Knight's anti-air ability was very good.
"Squad leader!"
The Owl Knight hurriedly stopped in front of the Holy Domain archer and said, "The China's vanguard has appeared in the forest outside the canyon. They will reach Mount Daqing in less than an hour!"
"They came so quickly!"
The squad leader licked his lips and laughed. "They came at the right time. Have the supply troops prepare for battle. Brothers at the top of the mountain, pay attention. The wind is blowing from the southeast today, so I will burn everything south of Mount Daqing and let the China have a taste of the power of fire, haha!"
I sucked in a deep breath. I had really underestimated Beast Soul City. No one would have thought that they would develop so many supply firepower in such a short time. Flamethrowers required top-tier Master Alchemists to make, and there were not many in the entire China server. Beast Soul City already had over a thousand Flamethrowers. Scary!
Flamethrowers dealt AoE damage, and could create a sea of fire in a short period of time. They could also cause explosions. Their attack power was very domineering.
I had to destroy them. I made up my mind. Just as I was about to fly away, I heard the squad leader say, "Jack, gather the Owl Knights. I suspect that their Heaven Domain experts are about to arrive. Immediately lead the Owl Knights to patrol and protect the supply."
"Yes, squad leader!"
The Owl Knight flew away, and not long after, a group of Owl Knights flew over from the direction of the Beast Soul City. Damn, this group of people is really scheming. In order to deal with China's Sky Region Army, they actually let so many knights give up their powerful attributes to ride Owl Knights.
The Owl Knights were good at air, but not on the ground. Their attack range was short, and their attack power was low. One Spring And Autumn Dance could deal with at least 10 Owl Knights!
… …
"Scholar, what's the situation?" Ling Yue asked in the party channel.
I gritted my teeth and said, "They've set up an ambush at Mount Daqing, and they have a lot of troops. Mount Daqing is a natural barrier, and they've already set up boulders, lightning carts, and other defensive equipment on the top of the mountain. They also have a lot of firearms. Tell everyone to be careful, and don't let the Yinyao cavalry attack. Conserve their strength and use it when we charge on the plains."
"Alright, we're coming over immediately!"
"Don't rush. They've prepared a lot of Owl Knights specifically to deal with flying players like us. The three of you aren't fast enough, and I'm afraid you'll be instantly killed."
"Oh?
That scary? "Ling Yue was slightly surprised.
"Yes, let me test the waters first!"
"Alright, be careful!"
I turned off the communicator and sprinted over. In the blink of an eye, I arrived at the middle of the mountain. A large group of blacksmiths were building Flamethrowers. The catapult line stretched for several miles. In order to defend against the China attack, the Indians had taken out their coffin to fight this battle.
Under Star Eyes, the Flamethrower's stats appeared. Its Attack was 1,000,000, close to Ling Yue's Magic Attack. Its Defense was 800,000, and its HP was 10,000,000. This kind of defense was average, and with my peak state, I could destroy a catapult in three strikes.
Right now, I had two choices in front of me —
To fight, or not to fight?
I thought for a moment and decided. It's amazing!
… …
As the shuttle flew through the forest, I landed on a branch of a large tree and activated my energy. The War God's Temple energy whirled around my body as the power in my body surged. The image of a green dragon slowly rose into the sky. I waved my sword and charged forward with the green dragon!
Rising Dragon Strike!
"Roar!"
The dragon roared, and energy surged. The giant dragon wreaked havoc. There were a total of seven Flamethrowers on the ground, but they were all torn to pieces by Rising Dragon Strike in a short ten seconds.
"Damn it, we've been ambushed!"
A Holy Domain Swordsman suddenly entered his transformation state. He held his heavy sword and shouted angrily, "Despicable bastard who ambushed us, come out! If you have the guts, come out!"
I smiled faintly and flew away with Shadow Escape.
The sky was hazy, and at least a thousand Owl Knights had arrived. Unfortunately, I was not an ordinary Dragon Knight, and I had the [Stealth] skill. No matter how they tried to catch me, they could not find me at all.
Flying quickly, they soon arrived at an open field in the forest. A large group of players was piling up materials. There were at least 50 Flaming Catapults here, and they were all pointed at the canyon outside Mount Daqing. Once these catapults were set up and fired at the other side of the mountain, one could imagine how much damage the Chinese army would suffer.
In for a penny, in for a pound. Since they were here, I would send them on their way!
