I immediately urged my horse forward. Bing Cha also rode up to meet me. Originally, I wanted to use my Emotion Skill on horseback so that it would be even more lethal. However, I received a notification that I couldn't use Emotion Skills on a mount!
Left with no choice, I temporarily put away my Blazing Warhorse. Bing Cha smiled knowingly and stood next to me. Then, we both pressed the buttons to use our Emotion Skills at the same time!
Strong winds started blowing everywhere as rays of golden light fell from the sky like rain. Bing Cha and I stood in the middle of the light and raised our swords with one hand. Soul Demise flashed with a cyan light, and Bing Cha's Ice Sword glowed with a purple light. In the next moment, Bing Cha slowly raised his sword and a milky white sword energy shot into the sky. When it came crashing down, it was as if a divine weapon had descended!
Boom!
The wide sword energy almost covered the Iron Spike Beetles surrounding Dragon Soul and Green Python. In an instant, a large number of damage numbers popped up above their heads —
“320000！”
“287003！”
“320000！”
“210248！”
… …
Even a Level 150 Elite monster with full HP would die instantly under Absolute Sword's destructive power. When the white light enveloped White Cloud City, every player in White Cloud City froze in place.
This was the first time anyone had seen such a powerful combo skill. This was the true power of a Emotion Skill!
As for Dragon Soul and Ghost Blaze's Emotion Skills, it only meant that not all Emotion Skills were OP. That was all.
More than half of the Iron Spike Beetles that had been pressuring the northern gate of White Cloud City were killed by the power of Absolute Sword. The remaining ones weren't worth Ling Yue and my Emotion Skills at all. In fact, both Ling Yue and I knew that our strongest skills would be reserved for the tenth wave. After all, everyone knew that the last wave would be the strongest!
Swhoosh!
A beam of golden light shone down. After killing a large group of monsters, Bing Cha leveled up.
I mounted my horse and said to Bing Cha, "Ling 'er will come over later. She'll fly you back to the city, or you can use a return scroll on your own ~"
Bing Cha smiled and pouted. "What?
You don't want it anymore after you're done with it. You're eating it clean and not admitting to it! "
I couldn't help but laugh. "What else do you want?
Don't tell me you want to kiss me to celebrate before you leave? "
Iced Tea immediately smiled. He raised his face and said, "Come on, do you dare?"
Looking at the beauty's delicate face and tender red lips, who wouldn't want to?
But in reality, I didn't dare. Ling Xue and Ling Er were behind me, and Ling Yue could see everything clearly from above. If I dared to do anything with Bing Cha in front of everyone, the world would fall into chaos!
The north gate was safe now, so I said, "Dragon Soul Judging Sky, you should be done now. I'm going to leave first. Uncle Solitary Grave looks like he's about to collapse. Depressing, Time Like Water is so lame at a critical moment …"
Dragon Soul laughed. "Go, go. There are too few top-tier players in Time Like Water. No wonder Solitary Grave has sent people to Clear Breeze City to recruit people. I heard that he wants to merge Time Like Water with the Brotherhood?!"
I was stunned. "That's a good idea. A bunch of monks finding a bunch of nuns …"
"Hahaha, exactly!"
In the party channel —
Solitary Grave: "Achoo!
Dammit, which young woman is thinking of me? "
Listening To The Rain From The Window: "Come on, someone must be badmouthing you behind your back."
Solitary Grave was furious. "Hmph!
It must be those bastards from Snow Moon! "
Dragon Soul: "Don't, uncle. Look at us Snow Moon, we are a bunch of harmless youths!
We are a bunch of innocent youths, don't you think so, Hellfire? "
Hellfire rubbed his hands together. "Yes, yes, we are innocent!"
Solitary Grave: "OMG, you guys are innocent?
If you were, then the dozens of gigabytes of porn in I's computer would've turned into life-changing songs in an instant! "
Dragon Soul: "Fuck!"
… …
Ling Er flew over, and I immediately pointed at her. "Here, send that sister with very white skin to the city!"
"Mn!"
Bing Cha stomped his foot. "Stupid Scholar, call me Bing Cha. What do you mean by very white skin!"
I laughed, turned around and extended a hand to Ling Xue. "Come on, let's go help Uncle Solitary Grave!"
"Okay!"
Ling Xue happily mounted her horse while I carried the little beauty in my arms and sped toward the southern gate. Normally, the journey would've taken at least 30 minutes, but with the Blaze Warhorse, it only took us a few minutes.
Along the way, Ling Xue's eyes were full of stars when she saw the piles of gold and equipment. "Scholar, can we …"
"We can't …"
"Can we?"
"We can't!
People will laugh at us! Ling Xue, we are celebrities now, so we have to stay calm! "
"Oh, I know!"
I smiled. "But if a boss appears, we can't let go of the spoils of war!"
"Mn mn!" The little beauty smiled in agreement.
At this time, a system bell resounded in the sky above White Cloud City —
Ding ~!
System Announcement: Notifying all players, the main city of Germany, Frost Forest City, has fallen to a monster siege and is now occupied by the forces of darkness. It has become the territory of the Army of Darkness. The city map has been changed to Frost Blood Forest, and all players originally from Germany have been assigned to a tier 2 city!
… …
Ling Xue and I exchanged glances with each other. Another city conquered by monsters?
Ding ~!
System Announcement: Notifying all players, the main city of India, Sand City, has fallen to a monster siege and is now occupied by the forces of darkness. It has become the territory of the Army of Darkness. The city map has been changed to Mud Forest Swamp, and all players originally from India have been assigned to a tier 2 city!
Ding ~!
System Announcement: Notifying all players, the main city of Russia, Snow Desert City, has fallen to a monster siege and is now occupied by the forces of darkness. It has become the territory of the Army of Darkness. The city map has been changed to Snow Desert Fortress, and all players originally from Russia have been assigned to a tier 2 city!
… …
"Fuck!
Two more tier 1 cities have fallen? "I turned pale with fright.
Ling Xue stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "The monster siege has basically reached its last two waves, so it's normal that some countries couldn't hold on.
Think about it, if Bing Lan hadn't appeared and repelled the Wind Chaser, White Cloud City would've been on that list a long time ago! "
I smiled and rejoiced. It was true!
In the following period of time, the system bell rang almost non-stop. Many of the tier 2 main cities of small countries had also been conquered. Of course, the system mainframe was not an idiot. It would definitely leave a way out for the players. At the very least, there would be a place for them to stay. Then, they would work hard to reclaim the main cities from the monsters!
At this time, we had arrived at Fleeting Time's territory. An orderly group of players was attacking the ground below, but they clearly weren't strong enough. The Level 150 elite mobs had extremely high resistances, and most archers and mages couldn't penetrate their Defense at all. At a time like this, a powerful mage like Ling Yue was even more precious!
I immediately charged in, and the Iron Spike Beetles were knocked back by the flash of my sword. I opened a bloody path and put Ling Xue down. The little beauty immediately showed off her power, and crisscrossed sword energy flew around the area. Her damage was something Solitary Grave and Hellfire couldn't compare to!
"Fuck!
Snow Moon's reinforcements have finally arrived … "Solitary Grave wiped his sweat.
I laughed, "Uncle, you and Hellfire should find a chance to return to the city. Leave this place to us for now. For now, we don't know which direction the boss will attack from, so we can only wait here while we kill."
"Mn, alright!"
Solitary Grave didn't hold back and retreated with Hellfire, looking for a chance to return to the city.
I looked up at the players above and shouted, "Get a hundred-man priest to focus on healing Windy Snow!"
Listening To The Rain From The Window smiled. "Alright!
I'm coming! "
When the white light landed on Ling Xue's body, I finally relaxed. I had an Immortal Rank mount, so of course I wasn't afraid of being hit. Ling Xue was different. Her Defense was high enough to take 3800 Attack damage from the Iron Spike Beetles.
Boom!
A wave of icy sword energy fell and scattered the Iron Spike Beetles along the way. Ling Xue turned around and smiled at me. "Scholar, after this is over, I'm going to learn horsemanship. Can you come with me?"
I nodded happily. "Of course. Melee players should learn horsemanship, or else they'll be at a disadvantage!"
"Mn!
Actually, only melee players can learn horsemanship. Mages and archers aren't allowed to … "
"Oh?
This is the first time I've heard of this … "
… …
Under Ling Xue and my DPS, the Iron Spike Beetles below the city walls were mostly wiped out in less than fifteen minutes. Seeing that there was nothing left to gain, we decided to return to the eastern gate. After all, the eastern gate was our base of operations.
At this time, Ling Yue shouted in the party, "Scholar Snow, come back quickly!
The boss is attacking the eastern gate! "
Slightly surprised, I immediately ran back with Ling Xue. I asked, "Is there only one boss?
Why does it always choose the eastern gate? "
Ling Yue laughed. "That's simple. These mobs all come from the Bloody Fortress, so the Bloody Fortress is located in the middle of Icewind Canyon. The boss coming from the eastern gate definitely won't take a detour to attack the other gates …"
"I see!"
A few minutes later, a huge beetle monster appeared in front of us. It was covered in thick black armor and glowed with a faint bloody light. It looked like an enlarged dung beetle, and it had two sharp claws on its forehead. Its front claws were placed on the wall, and it climbed up parallel to the wall. At the same time, it clawed at the eastern gate of White Cloud City!
"Bang!"
The sharp claws tore through a large part of the wall, and the players on it fell to the ground. The boss immediately swooped down and swung its claws. A large group of Snow Moon players were all turned into white light and returned to the city!
"Fuck, such high attack power!"
I put the data I got from Eye of the Stars into the party channel —
[Armored Beast] (Ghost Rank Boss)
Level: 150
Attack: 4100 ~ 5200
Defense: 5500
HP: 5000000
Skills: [Laceration], [Devour], [Armored Shield]
Passive: Additional 200% damage against defense-type targets
Passive: Magic Immunity
Introduction: One of the leader-type beasts of the Bloody Fortress
… …
"Fuck!
What … what kind of sick thing is this? "Hellfire turned pale with fright.
Solitary Grave said, "This boss is too strong. Should we call Seven-star Lamp to help us?"
Dragon's Soul smiled. "Forget it.
Seven-star Lamp can't wait to see us get killed by this monster. Can he even come and help us?
Even if he does, he'll just watch from the sidelines. "
I said, "It's fine, I'll do it!"
"What, Scholar wants to fight us one on one?" Solitary Grave's jaw dropped.
I smiled. "No, I still have Ling Xue!"
My words probably motivated the little beauty because Ling Xue jumped off her horse and fired a Profound Ice Sword Energy at me —
“2785！”
Ling Xue was stunned for a moment. "What … what kind of defense is this?
I almost couldn't break through it! "
I smiled helplessly. "This is a defense-type boss. Ling Xue, follow Ling Er up the city wall. Hmph hmph, I'm the only one who can fight this boss!"
Ling Xue knew this so she didn't argue. She smiled gently and said, "Be careful."
"Okay!"
Ling Er turned into an eagle and left with Ling Xue. However, the boss was still tearing down White Cloud City.
I immediately urged my horse forward and used a Shield Breaking Slash from behind. A powerful energy suddenly rose. The energy of the Azure Dragon had awakened!
"Crack!"
“28043！”
Haha, as expected, the Shield Breaking Slash's ability to ignore defense always made me overjoyed!
Such a powerful attack was clearly enough to attract the boss's aggro. The Armored Beast immediately turned around and rushed toward me. Both of its blades slashed at me. I felt my body shake and the [Dragon Armor] was shattered!
“6742！”
I was shocked. As expected, even my 9000 Defense wasn't enough to withstand a Ghost Rank boss's attack. It was way too overpowered!
Luckily, I didn't let Ling Xue face the enemy. Otherwise, she would've been one-shot in one round.
At this time, on the city wall, arrows fell like rain, but the attack power of these archers was too weak. They could only bounce the arrows on the carapace of the Ironback Beasts and deal 1 damage after 1 point. The archers with more powerful attack power could deal 3 or 4 points of damage, and those who could deal 5 points of damage were considered to be better archers.
Whoosh!
I once again brandished a normal attack. Sword light flashed and the sword light left a mark on the armor.
The Armored Beast suddenly shook and lost 7038 HP. It looked like my attack power was still effective. What a joke, my actual attack power was probably over ten thousand. If I still couldn't break through its defense, then there was no justice in the world!
The beauty of Xue Yue Studio saw this and immediately said with a smile, "Do your best, Scholar!"
I swung my sword again and moved closer to the wall. At the same time, I shouted, "Priests, heal me!"
Countless rays of white light fell from the sky. The boss's HP was almost full by the time it finished swinging its blades.
Just like that, close to a hundred thousand White Cloud City players watched me solo the boss. Even though I needed a priest to heal me, I was still doing pretty well.
