At 50% HP, Thunder swung his Blade of Thunder in every direction. Gradually, the heroes of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls were no match for him. Even Famous Generals like Xu Yang, Heaven's Rain and Diamond Dust were killed one after another. There were only a handful of players left who survived the boss, and the city walls were littered with corpses. Today's battle was even worse than the battle with Blood Skull. At the very least, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls didn't suffer nearly as many casualties as Blood Skull.
… …
"What do we do …?"
Li Chengfeng panted heavily as the Crimson Refined Sword in his hand shook a little. "Almost all of our priests are dead. If we keep fighting like this, we'll run out of supplies. If Warsky Alliance is annihilated, it won't be long before we die as well."
I gritted my teeth and shouted, "Retreat! Enter the city and rely on the NPC camp's defense. We can't stop Thunder with our own strength!"
Everyone nodded in unison as they stepped over the remains of the city walls and retreated into the city.
On the other side, Candlelight Shadow spurred his fire dragon and pointed his sword at Thunder. "Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls is retreating. We'll take over this Thunder. Horned Beast Riders, one hundred of you, take turns to Charge. Mages and priests, follow up and use Shock Arrows and Ice Arrow Spells!
Beast tamer army, use your Lantern Wielding Girls to blast Thunder with everything you have! No matter how strong the boss is, he's just one person. He's not that scary! "
Iron hooves thundered as the horde of Horned Beast Riders charged the boss. Their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
… …
Whoosh whoosh...
A cold wind blew past and blew at Thunder's battle robe. This general who had been tempered for many years in Purgatory stared coldly at Candle Dragon's army. He suddenly swung his sword, and an arc of lightning flashed past, instantly killing dozens of Horned Beasts. Thunder Abyss fell among the beast tamers, and hundreds of beast tamers who had the ability to tame beasts were immediately killed.
Clang!
Candlelight Shadow parried Thunder's attack with his fire dragon. He raised his war boots and kicked the boss's sword hilt. Then, he used Blazing Purgatory Slash to hit Thunder's head three times in a row, dealing a bunch of damage.
“271626！”
“261552！”
“251909！”
Thunder sneered as he abruptly punched Candlelight Shadow's Fire Dragon's head. With a twist of his wrist, he slashed Candlelight Shadow's shoulder three times with the Blade of Thunder. Poor Candlelight Shadow rolled together with his Fire Dragon and crashed into a pile of rubble a hundred meters away. He was battered and exhausted, and his HP had dropped to around 10%. It was only now that he understood just how terrifying this boss was. Thunder, be it AoE or single target, was top-notch and flawless!
Seeing this, God's Dance hurriedly whispered, "After the last one hundred riders charge out, everyone retreat. We can't fight anymore. Lei Ming is too strong, and we're no match for him. Retreat with Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls!"
Candlelight Shadow nodded. "Yeah, we underestimated the boss. Retreat!"
The group of Candle Dragon Cavalry retreated with a rumble, leaving behind hundreds of people to die. This was something that had to be done. Otherwise, there would be even more casualties.
… …
Inside the city, numerous arrow towers were waiting for the boss. These were hastily constructed defensive structures. Every arrow tower was manned by three to five Silver Moon Alliance archers. They were all Level 310 Demonic Soul NPCs. They were far inferior to the God-tier Demonic Soldiers in this wave of thunder demons.
Under the moonlight, hundreds of arrow towers shot towards Lei Ming in unison!
Bang bang bang...
The power of lightning flowed around Thunder's body as he bounced away the arrow towers' attacks with near-perfect accuracy. At the same time, his expression was dark and cold as he said, "Karinshan, Sophia, do you think you can kill me with these weak attacks?
You are too ignorant. Come, show me your true strength. Let me see just how strong the Silver Moon Alliance has been after hundreds of years of hibernation to fight against our Purgatory Legion! "
As he spoke, Thunder broke through the limitations of the game. With a wave of his arm, he unleashed dozens of Thunder Abysses without any cooldowns. Boom boom boom! A tragic scene unfolded. In an instant, the eastern side of the city turned into a purgatory. Countless NPCs were killed by the Thunder Abysses, and dozens of arrow towers were reduced to dust. Thunder raised his sword and flew forward. With a flash of his sword, a huge fan-shaped impact wave tore through the bodies of the NPC cavalry. Screams of agony rang out one after another.
I led the surviving players of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and watched from afar. I clenched my fists but couldn't do anything. Thunder's strength increased exponentially when he fought the NPCs. If players tried to join the battle now, they would be courting death.
Inside the city, a net of lightning swords nearly a hundred meters long wreaked havoc. In an instant, Thunder had killed at least tens of thousands of Silver Moon Alliance NPC soldiers. He was still laughing arrogantly. "What's wrong? Where's your courage?
Come, Karinshan, fight me. Let me taste the power of the number one beauty of humanity, the number one strategist, and the number one general. If you don't dare, I will find you and bring you back to Purgatory. I will let you experience what it is like to be a woman. You won't be wronged by being the woman of a strong person like me, will you?
Hahahaha … "
Amidst the thunderous roar, there was a sudden movement on a tall watchtower in the distance. An orange-red figure swept down. It was Karinshan with a sharp sword in her hand. Her pair of long legs glowed with a charming luster under the moonlight. Her small boots stepped on the void, stirring up ripples. She flew through the air, drew her sword in the air, and suddenly struck down from above. Golden Battle Qi erupted from the blade of the sword!
"Bang!"
Thunder was caught off guard and was hit in the shoulder. His shoulder armor was shattered, and he was sent flying like a cannonball. He crashed into the totem pole of the Shadow Demon Clan in the city with a loud bang.
"Kaka …"
Thunder stood up with a ferocious expression. He tasted the black blood at the corner of his mouth and looked at the floating Karinshan in front of him. A trace of joy appeared in his eyes. "Hahaha, this is too surprising. The legendary number one general of the Silver Moon Alliance, Princess Karinshan, has been resurrected after a thousand years of cultivation. Now, she has actually stepped into Divine Domain and become a god-rank expert, hahaha …"
Karinshan's every movement was enhanced by divine power. She stared at Thunder and said, "You devil, after betraying the Roland Empire, you still refuse to give up. Now you want to help Lin Na destroy this new continent and establish order. Thunder, you must die here today. Only then can you appease the souls of countless brave warriors!"
Thunder licked his lips. "That's not important. What's important is that you are now a god-rank expert …"
Karinshan frowned. "So what if I'm a god-rank expert?"
Thunder's gaze was abnormally obscene. He licked his lips again. "Nothing. I just want to tell you that I've toyed with a Duke's virgin, a Banshee whose soul didn't disperse after death, a powerful witch from the Abyss, a beautiful Elven Queen, but I've never toyed with a woman with god-rank strength. It looks like you'll have to fulfill this dream of mine today …"
Karinshan's expression immediately turned furious. "Thunder, you're courting death!
Do you know who you're talking to? "
Leiming still had a fearless look on his face. "I know, but Karinshan, do you know how many Divine level experts there are in the human world?
And in our Purgatory, including myself, there are a total of 11 God-level powerhouses, and I am the weakest amongst them. Hahaha, even if I am the weakest God, it would still be more than enough to teach a little girl who has just entered the Realm of the Gods a lesson! "
Karinshan was so angry that her entire body trembled.
In the air, the Green Dragon Knight Tia raised her dragon spear and said angrily, "Princess, there's no need to talk to this bastard. The Five Dragon Knights will fight with you until we cut off Thunder's head. Of his so-called 11 god-rank experts, Dark Lava, Earth Rock Devourer, and Bloody Finger have long been killed by our adventurers. Ptui, god-rank experts? You're a disgrace to the divine domain!"
"Little girl!"
Thunder's gaze was completely cold. He swung his sword and disappeared from the spot, leaving only a swirling vortex behind. In the next moment, Thunder suddenly appeared behind Tia. His Blade of Thunder pierced through Tia's breastplate, shattering her dragon scales. Tia spat out a mouthful of blood. When she turned around, she saw Thunder raising his arm, his fist surrounded by countless electric sparks. With a loud bang, both Tia and the Green Dragon Knight cried out and fell to the ground, creating a bottomless pit. Electricity crackled above the pit. No one knew if the Green Dragon Knight was still alive.
"Tia …"
Karinshan called out in a daze. Her body trembled as boundless hatred appeared in her eyes. She abruptly raised her sword and with a 'shua' sound, she leaped towards her opponent like a bolt of lightning. Her sword danced and clashed with Lei Ming's Thunder Blade. She raised her little boots and directly exchanged blows. The two Deities were sent flying backwards. As Lei Ming retreated, he opened his palm and roared, "Lei Ming!"
"Boom!"
The power of Thunder Abyss ravaged Karinshan's body in the air. Her battle robe was torn to shreds, but she was unwilling to take a step back. In the blink of an eye, her chest and clothes were all torn to shreds. Only the Profound Gold Armor was left covering her body. Large patches of her pure white skin were exposed. She gasped for breath, her chest rising and falling. Her perky twin peaks were simply covered by the armor and had some bloodstains.
The humiliated Karinshan gritted her teeth and stomped on the air with her combat boots. She shouted, "Ice Congeal!"
"Weng!"
The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped. Countless icicles condensed around Karinshan. She raised her arm and threw out at least a hundred icicles in Thunder's direction. Thunder didn't expect the counterattack to come so quickly. He immediately curled up and surrounded himself with countless electric currents, forming a Lightning Shield to defend against the opponent's attack!
"Peng peng peng peng …"
Ice shards flew. After a round of attacks, a few drops of black blood fell from the sky. Thunder let out a miserable groan and suddenly turned into an afterimage, appearing behind Karinshan. He raised his hand and used Five Thunder Strikes. Karinshan's back was hit, and blood spurted out. However, she could only turn around and swing her sword. With a "Pa!" sound, she slashed at Thunder's waist. Her armor shattered, and she was kicked by Thunder.
"Boom!"
A watchtower was destroyed. Karinshan lay in the ruins. Her flawless face had been cut by a sword. Blood dripped down like a stream of blood.
