"You're courting death! Everyone else, just watch!"
God of War's growl came from the back of my head. Even though he was the last to react, he was the first to react. His sword barely grazed my forehead as I ducked into the air. Then, I twisted my wrist in midair and used Barrier Break on my opponent. My reaction speed was absolutely shocking. God of War's roar came from behind me.
Thud!
I grabbed God of War's wrist and moved even faster than before. I activated a helix maneuver and dodged God of War's attack. At the same time, I kicked God of War in the opposite direction and sent him flying backward. God of War was clearly much weaker than I was in terms of Strength.
I abruptly tilted my body to the side, and a sharp arrow flew past the tip of my nose. In the blink of an eye, I had already locked onto Leafie the Witch's direction. I raised my left arm and formed a hand seal. Ten Thousand Absolute Swords whistled through the air. At the same time, I stepped forward and threw the Purple Ying Sword. These two actions were completed in 0.15 seconds. It was faster than a normal person's reaction speed.
"Ah!?"
Leafie the Witch shuddered. The Purple Ying Sword had pierced a giant hole in her chest, and the Ten Thousand Absolute Sword had also pierced her. She could only slowly collapse to the ground. A system announcement rang at the same time — Ding ~!
System Notice: All players, please be informed that [Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand] (wild) has successfully killed the shrine guard player [Leafie the Witch] (India). Player 212820 Nation War contribution points have been awarded to you!
… …
While I was one-shotting Leafie the Witch, I charged forward and swung my shield, taking the brunt of Purple Thunder's Cruel Ambush and Blue Frost's Frozen Slash. The toughness of my Dou Qi Astral Wind rapidly dropped. These people were all famous players in their respective servers, and none of them were easy to deal with.
"Dammit!"
Blue Frost hurriedly turned around and evaded my attack with an S-shaped maneuver. She could tell that my target was her!
"Trying to escape!?"
I slid across the ground and appeared right in front of Blue Frost. Blue Frost's mouth fell open in shock at the ever-changing whirlpool tactics. Clearly, she hadn't expected me to be able to maintain such an outstanding ability to change directions despite my incredible speed. This was the effect of a mount with 0 turn points, the unparalleled advantage of an Ancient Divine Dragon!
"Bang!"
I swung my fist backward and shattered Breeze and Rain's Soul Capture Divine General Skill. Then, I picked up speed and caught up to Blue Frost. Grabbing the Purple Ying Sword, I thrust it into the girl's body and used Purple Frost Injection to reduce her Defense. The next moment, I fired Burning Blade Slash and dealt three damage numbers — 280003!
“371871！”
"423885, fans also like to read:!"
The weakened ice knight was no match for my powerful attack, so she collapsed to the ground and stared at me with eyes full of anger!
Ding ~!
System Notice: Attention all players, [Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand] (wild) has successfully killed JGL Hall of Famer [Blue Frost] (Japan) and obtained 10% of this player's Nation War points!
…
A chill ran down my back. The Fire Howl Sextuple Slash had shattered my Battle Energy Wind Astral. My invincibility duration was over!
Red Maple's Maple Kill cut through my body, and I lost 170k HP. The bastard's Attack was still as powerful as ever. Even at Level 182, he was still able to deal so much damage to me.
Whoosh!
My Divine Martial War Boots drew an arc across the ground, and the Dragon God Shield knocked God of War's blade away. Then, I turned around and ran toward Red Maple!
"You want to kill me, animal?!" Red Maple grinned.
While retreating, Red Maple used Thunder God Ball and Wind Dragon Revolution to attack me. Behind me, Breeze and Rain and God of War followed me like a shadow and swung their sword energy at me. No matter how strong my Defense was, there was no way I could survive this kind of attack.
Swhoosh!
Breeze and Rain abruptly closed in on me and used Soul Refining Cage to lock me in place for 7 seconds!
The shrubbery shook for a moment, and God of War exclaimed in astonishment, "Did you get hit?"
Breeze and Rain's pupils shrank. "No!"
The grass shook and the bushes were torn apart. I made use of my vision to avoid the Soul Refining Cage. I charged out of the bushes with leaves all over my body. My sword slashed across Red Maple's neck. He quickly spun his ring, activating the invincibility effect.
Swhoosh!
I spun around, my blood-colored cape fluttering in the wind. Then, I abruptly turned around and punched Red Maple with the Magic Piercing Punch. Something shocking happened next. Red Maple's invincibility skill was forcefully nullified, and he used Universe Break and Burning Blade Slash on the Purple Ying Sword in a reverse grip. Red Maple's confidence had ruined his plan — Ding ~!
System Notice: All players, please be informed that [Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand] (wild) has successfully killed JGL Hall of Famer [Red Maple] (Japan). He has been rewarded with 10% of his Nation War points: 28091!
… …
"Bang!"
There was a dull thud behind me, and I felt like my back was being torn apart. I stared at my HP in horror and noticed that it had dropped below 21%. I hurriedly chugged down a health potion and buffed myself with Tenacity of the Dead. Then, I turned around and used Myriad Sword Absolute Step + Soaring Dragon Suppression to kill a bunch of players. However, Breeze and Rain and God of War didn't retreat even though they had potions on them.
"Fuck!"
It looked like these two people were just too determined to kill me. It was no wonder that Cyan Earth City and Purple Grape City had formed an alliance. However, I had killed several of Purple Grape City's top experts right under Breeze and Rain and God of War's noses just a few minutes ago, and it was a humiliation they couldn't accept. Experts had their own pride, and they couldn't tolerate blasphemy!
I heard Gui Guzi and Lin Yixin's voices coming from behind me. I abruptly stomped the ground and retreated. Then, Lian Xin appeared at the frontline and unleashed Divine Demon Break. A bunch of Beast King Cavalrymen collapsed to the ground one after another. They might have seen Divine Demon Break before, but they had never seen a skill of this level before.
… …
"Reserve vanguard, Charge!" Breeze and Rain shouted angrily while clenching his fists.
A bunch of Beast King Cavalrymen swooped down from the mountain and killed all the frontlines of the China server players. Now, everyone was fighting their own battles once more.
I swung the Purple Ying Sword back and forth to maximize my offensive advantage. Unfortunately, one person couldn't change the outcome of a war.
Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun shouted angrily, "We're out of potions, boss …"
I replied, "I'm out of potions too!"
In fact, we had been fighting for a very long time, and we had lost a lot of our stamina. Even the Cyan Earth City players we killed only dropped equipment, not potions. Everyone was out of ammo and food because they had been fighting for so long.
… …
Thud thud thud!
Countless arrows rained down on High Fighting Spirits and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun. High Fighting Spirits and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun stood in a pool of their own blood before slowly collapsing to the ground. Lu Buyi's Magic Shield was also broken and he slowly collapsed to the ground. Pure Love and the other girls were also crushed by the Charge of the Beastmaster Cavalry. I had massacred every supply territory in Sky City.
The last two hours before the end of the Nation War were also the most difficult two hours for us.
I was relying entirely on my lifesteal to fight, and I had to split all the Saint Spirit Potions I had with Lin Yixin, He Yi, Gui Guzi and the others. At the same time, I received news that Hickey and Umbrella had finally arrived!
… …
On the slope, Breeze and Rain ordered a group of archers to fire Far Shots at us. At the same time, he ordered another group of archers to rest on the slope and recover their MP and HP.
I turned around and noticed that the plains were littered with player corpses. Almost 1.5 million China players had fought their way to this point, and less than a hundred thousand had died. Cyan Earth City had lost at least five million players. The plains were dead, and Breeze and Rain had ordered millions of Cyan Earth City players to defend the high ground with their lives. At the same time, he was attacking Karinshan's NPC army with all his might. Karinshan's army was practically dwindling to the point where only a handful of players were left.
I stood in a pool of blood, and the grass beneath my feet was wet and slippery. I looked into the distance and said, "Gui Guzi, Heaven's Rain, Diamond Dust, come here!"
"What is it, Boss Broken Halberd?" Gui Guzi came over with the two girls.
I wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth and said, "You three will circle around to the right and meet up with us at the southeast. You will be the leaders of the Howling Wind Cavalry and buffed by Knight God and Knight General. You must charge to the high ground and protect Karinshan from being killed!"
"Mn, don't worry!"
The three of them left in a cloud of dust and disappeared into the smoke.
… …
I turned around and said, "Brothers and sisters, this is the final battle! Even if we have to die at the foot of this hill, we will not beg our enemies for mercy!"
Zhang Chun pulled out his sword from the ground and grinned. "Yeah, let's get ready to attack again!"
We had less than a hundred thousand players, but we were going to attack a two million man shield formation. It was crazy, but it was the only thing we could do!
"Kill!"
I raised the Purple Ying Sword high into the air and charged toward the enemy. Arrows rained down from the sky, and Murong Mingyue, Moon Dew and the other priests didn't even have time to heal themselves. They had no choice but to keep up with us and recover their MP as we ran.
Thud thud thud...
Arrows pierced their bodies and killed a ton of players. Stranger of Three Lifetimes couldn't keep her Magic Shield up after it shattered, so she could only sit in a pool of blood and look at me. "Lu Chen, you guys go. I can only hit them with my scepter …"
I nodded. "Take care, Momo!"
An arrow pierced Stranger of Three Lifetimes' chest before she could finish her sentence. She looked down at her wound and smiled sadly. "I can't take care of myself anymore. I'm going …"
Swhoosh! A ray of light flew into the air — Ding ~!
System Notice: Attention all players, "Taste of Home" (India) has successfully killed CGL Hall of Famer "Stranger of Three Lifetimes" (China). Player 318801 Nation War points have been awarded to her!
… …
The system announcement kept ringing as God's Dance, Come See The Snow Tonight, October Rain, Ling Xueshang, Farewell Song, and more CGL Hall of Famers were killed. No matter how powerful you were, you would die if you didn't have a Blood Mana Potion. Even Farewell Song was killed by the enemy's high-rank archer, Seeing Like Fire, who saw through his stealth.
Kacha!
I cut off a magic knight's arm with the Purple Ying Sword, but my eyes were bloodshot. The players around me were dying one by one, and even Li Chengfeng, Xu Yang, Du Thirteen, Zhang Chun, Clear Perfume and more had died on the frontlines. Only a handful of Dragonlight Cavalrymen were left alive. This war was simply too cruel for us to bear.
… …
Breeze and Rain gritted his teeth as he watched the famous players of China struggle for their lives. He couldn't help but growl, "Why are you doing this?
This city is destined to belong to us! What are you still struggling for?! "
He Yi and Lin Yixin both used Barrier Break and chuckled. "Why don't you guess …"
Breeze and Rain: "..."
It was at this moment someone whispered something into Breeze and Rain's ears, causing him to shudder. "Dammit, there's an ambush waiting for us! I shouldn't have assumed that Lu Chen was only this strong!"
