I tilted my head and saw a female mage dressed in crimson robes standing beside me. It was a low-collared, deep V-neck robe, and I guessed that it was at least a Level 220 + Ancient Immortal-grade item. Of course, what was even more eye-catching were the two voluptuous breasts at the V of the robe. Snow fell into the deep ravine and melted rapidly. It was an unbearable sight.
I pouted. "Momo, are you cold wearing this?"
Stranger of Three Lifetimes looked at my armor. "Er, a little. Why don't you take off your Dragon Suppressing Armor and Sunstrider Cloak and put them on me? Eyes Like Water is exactly what we need …"
The corner of my mouth twitched. "No way. If you're cold, then go ahead. You can't freeze to death in the game anyway …"
Stranger of Three Lifetimes giggled. "Alright, add me and Eyes to your party. We'll fight this boss together!"
"Mn!"
… …
I added the two girls and activated He Yi's Famous General Skill.
Stranger of Three Lifetimes looked at the valley and asked, "What are you going to do when the Mad Purgatory Dragon kills the boss?"
I shrugged. "What are you looking at? It's hopeless!"
"Why?" Stranger of Three Lifetimes blinked.
"It's obvious …" I pointed at the boss that was killing people in the valley and said, "This is the Forbidden Land Demon Ruler. Not only is it a Monarch Boss, it's also a type that specializes in both offense and defense. I don't know how much Defense those two shields have added to it, but its total Defense is as high as 100,000. Adding on the level and grade bonuses, a conservative estimate would say that the Forbidden Land Demon Ruler's actual Defense is at least 2 million, and that's just the bottom line. With such high Defense and level suppression, even a ray of sunlight might not be able to break through it, much less third-rate Iron Pardon, Inconstant, and Wang Dongliang!"
He Yi giggled. "Don't insult the Gemini Stars like that. They're second-rate!"
Stranger of Three Lifetimes also laughed. "Yeah, it's a second-rate skill, but it's still useless. The boss's 100k Defense is unbreakable, and they lack experts like Lu Chen and Beiming Xue. They don't have a skill that lowers Defense, so they're doomed!"
Murong Mingyue said, "It's fine, we have a priest's curse to lower our Defense …"
The corner of my mouth twitched. "Don't even think about curses that can only reduce my defense by 5%. It doesn't make much of a difference. It still can't break through my defense …"
Eyes Like Water spurred her horse forward, "Everyone, you're just going to watch them kill the boss. Don't you have any thoughts?"
Stranger of Three Lifetimes and I laughed at the same time. "What's the rush? Let them kill us before we reach 20% HP …"
Eyes Like Water's face darkened, "A bunch of bitches … …"
…
Not long after, Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Lin Yixin, Chaos Moon, and the others arrived with a hundred-man party. Everyone stood on the hillside and watched the battle below. This boss was like a hot potato. Those who went up early were destined to be covered in wounds. Moreover, more and more forces would come to hunt it. Those who fought the boss would feel like they were sitting on pins and needles. That feeling was not pleasant.
When Lu Buyi showed up as well, everyone formed a party of 500 + players. Lu Buyi's 150% buff to all stats scared Lin Yixin, Stranger of Three Lifetimes, and the other girls so much that their faces turned purple. "OMG, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' tactician is so OP!"
I snickered on the inside. They probably didn't know just how OP Pure Love's buff was, or they would have been even more shocked. Still, the Seven String Jade Zither was one of the Twelve Divine Armaments, and it belonged to Pure Love. With their intelligence, they should be able to guess it, so they probably weren't surprised at all.
… …
While we were talking, the sound of iron hooves shook the valley from another direction. Another large group of people charged out of the sea of snow!
"It's going to be lively again …" Lin Yixin rubbed her hands together excitedly. She looked like she wanted to see the world in chaos.
The group of people who charged out of the sea of snow all had blood-red names, and the emblem on their shoulders was very eye-catching. It was World of Great War, the second-ranked guild in the Japan server. Their guild leader, Tong Ge, was carrying a greatsword. He was only Level 221, and that was my masterpiece. He had been tortured by Unfettered Chains more than once, and he was very hurt. However, I couldn't help but admire the fact that he had quickly leveled back up and returned with thousands of World of Great War players!
"Everyone, charge! Let's take the boss!"
Tong Ge waved his longsword and laughed loudly. "Our luck is pretty good. It's just a trash guild from the China server. Our reinforcements will be here soon. Let's kill them!"
The thousands of cavalry from World of Great War charged, and the sound of their hooves was very loud.
Wang Dongliang looked into the distance and said angrily, "Fuck, those Japanese bastards are looking for trouble again! Mad Dragon magic knights, go up and stop the boss! Touch of Sunshine, retreat and follow me! Let's kill those idiots from World of Great War! Work together and kill Tong Ge!"
Touch of Sunshine chuckled. "No problem!"
Wang Dongliang and Touch of Sunshine led only a hundred cavalry players, but they charged toward the thousands of enemy players. They were too arrogant.
In the end, Touch of Sunshine's Dragon Flame Flurry + Scarlet Flame Slash dealt a whopping 70% of Tong Ge's HP!
“MD！”
Tong Ge roared angrily. He raised his hand and unleashed a long-ranged sword energy, but a Ray of Sunlight quickly changed directions and dodged it. A group of World of Strife players locked onto a Ray of Sunlight and cast Trap Net, but they all missed. After Tong Ge shifted to the side, a Ray of Sunlight closed in on him and pierced his armor with Barrier Break, sending Tong Ge flying backward.
"Retreat!"
Tong Ge was shocked. He had less than 10% HP left. He didn't think that a second-rate guild like Mad Purgatory Dragon would have such a top-tier expert. His understanding of the guilds in the China server was just too lacking.
"You still want to leave?"
Touch of Sunshine's laughter was like the voice of Yama, and in the next moment, the God of Fire Dragon engulfed the snowy ground. "Bang bang bang", countless fire dragons leapt out from the snow-covered ground, engulfing the bodies of the Era of War players. Tong Ge's buff of the War God couldn't heal them in time. In the distance, Touch of Sunshine swung his sword, leaving behind an afterimage. Shadow Break!
"Bang!"
“391474！”
Tong Ge shuddered and his eyes widened. He died just like that and collapsed to the ground. His kneepads dropped to the ground.
… …
We continued to hide in the snow. I shook my head and said, "Why did the World of Great War come here?
To get himself killed?
Tong Ge is so pitiful … "
He Yi nodded. "Yeah, a man who gets hurt easily …"
Lin Yixin said, "Actually, the man who gets hurt even more easily is Laughing At The Heavens. He's a CGL Hall of Famer …"
Me: "..."
Stranger of Three Lifetimes said, "The World of War will definitely attract even more foreign guilds to come and covet the boss. Isn't it time for us to take action?"
I nodded and clenched my fists. I said, "Chengfeng, Chaos Moon, gather all our players nearby and have them station a hundred thousand players on both sides of this small canyon. We'll seal it off in 30 minutes. This boss is ours to take!"
Li Chengfeng and Chaos Moon nodded in unison. "Understood! We'll get it done right away!"
Lin Yixin looked at me from the side and smiled. "That's right. This is how the number one guild of the China server should act!"
I said decisively, "Yeah, let's go all out this time. Even if super guilds like Cyan Beast, Hero Alliance, and Throne of the Wild come at us at the same time, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls won't let up. This is the last battle of the Chaos Expedition anyway!
Let's kill them all and gather our morale for the Nation War! "
High Fighting Spirits, Gui Guzi, and the others clenched their fists excitedly. "Soul of Dream Dependence! We'll fight with our swords!
We'll prove that our cavalry is unparalleled in the world! "
… …
However, the enemy forces arrived faster than we expected. The Monarch boss was like a giant cake that smelled so good that its scent spread for dozens of kilometers. It wasn't long before thousands of Throne of the Wild players led by Tear Stain and almost ten thousand Era of Flying Bird players led by Shogunate King appeared in the sea of snow. The snow couldn't hide the overwhelming aura of war. Tens of thousands of Mad Purgatory Dragon players were still guarding the small canyon and killing the boss, or rather, being killed by the boss. However, the mages' bombardment was effective. The Forbidden Land Devil Sovereign only had around 70% HP left.
Wang Dongliang raised his sword and growled, "Fuck, the Japanese and Koreans are here! Brother Chao, have you sent your men in yet? Prepare to defend and counterattack!"
Roaming Dragon replied with a smile, "Don't worry, a total of 70,000 players have entered the canyon and are forming a defensive line. It's just that the snow is so heavy that I can't see them. I'm sure it'll be a chaotic battle!"
Wang Dongliang looked a bit excited. "Hehe, that's perfect. We need a hearty battle to raise the Mad Purgatory Dragon's reputation!"
The sound of shields clanging against the ground was endless. My Dark Pupils could see almost 500 yards ahead of me, and I could see that the map was packed with players. The Mad Purgatory Dragons had formed an iron formation around the boss and were ready to welcome any incoming players. Moreover, there were at least 50k mages and archers within the formation. It could be said that the Mad Purgatory Dragons had sent out all of their elites for this battle.
"Come, grandsons!" A Touch of Sunshine laughed arrogantly at the front of the formation.
… …
The sound of horse hooves resounded through the snow. Throne of the Wild + Era of Flying Bird. Nearly fifteen thousand players were charging!
Tear Stain and Shogunate King were very anxious. They knew that they couldn't allow the Mad Purgatory Dragon to form a perfect formation. Otherwise, they wouldn't be enough. Cavalry was brave in positional warfare, but against a dense army of archers and mages, a small number of cavalry would be annihilated in an instant. This was something they didn't want to see.
Unfortunately, the Mad Purgatory Dragon had made the first move. It used ten thousand players to pin down the boss and a hundred thousand to defend the canyon!
… …
The battle had already begun in the snow, but we couldn't see what was going on. At least the air was starting to fill with the smell of blood.
Nearly thirty minutes later, the red dots in my Dark Pupils' vision grew fewer and fewer. The Mad Purgatory Dragon's green dots didn't grow much. As expected, the temporary alliance between Throne of the Wild and Era of Flying Bird had failed.
"Get ready, it's our turn!"
I abruptly stood up and grabbed Coldness of the Nine States. Gretchen, Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, and the others also jumped onto the dragon's back. We charged out of the snow and toward the Mad Purgatory Dragon's formation.
… …
"Not far away …"
A group of people was retreating to the right. It was none other than Tear Stain's Throne of the Wild players. She was riding a huge horse with a dozen or so arrows sticking out of her arm. She said angrily, "Dammit, their firepower is too strong! Send more people over immediately!"
Beside her, the vice leader nodded. "Mn, our thirty thousand riders are only ten minutes away!"
… …
Suddenly, a voice came from the snow. "Do you think you can leave this place alive?"
"Who is it?" Tear Stain raised her guard.
A group of cavalrymen charged out of the snow, and their leader was none other than Little Piglet. The Crimson Dragon Bracer around his wrist burned fiercely as he smiled and said, "Let me help Candlelight Shadow take care of his junior. Brothers and sisters, let's take out Tear Stain first and Mad Purgatory Dragon second.
