Boom boom boom!
An icy cyclone danced in the air, mingling with the dark blue glow of the Galaxy Storm. The battle scene was exceptionally beautiful. Spiraling Arrow Blade + Galaxy Storm, this was indeed a powerful killing move for an Archer + Mage combination after their fifth class advancement. Moreover, the skill effects were dazzling, filling the bloody battle scene with violence and beauty.
"Ahhhhh …"
Screams of pain later, only seven or eight riders were able to charge through the Galaxy Storms and Spiraling Arrow Blades. Every single one of them had less than 50% HP left, and they were able to charge through the Galaxy Storms and Spiraling Arrow Blades. All of them let out strange cries as they swung their swords and charged at our warrior party. The rest of the readers looked at us as if nothing had happened.
High Fighting Spirits pursed his lips. "Holy shit, they all look so brave …"
"Is that so?"
I smiled and raised the Cyan Netherworld Sword. Then, I let out a low shout and threw the Cyan Netherworld Sword into the air. The divine weapon instantly turned into a spiral blade as it flew across the ground and drew a beautiful arc in the air between seven or eight enemies. The sound of sharp blades slicing through armor rang in the air as five magic knights instantly dropped dead to the ground. I had activated my Famous General Skill, Martial God, so my Attack was unimaginably high!
I killed five of them with a Blade Boomerang and followed it up with two Dragon Slaying Slashes. Two more magic knights fell off their mounts and died one after another. There was only one left, and he charged me with his spear.
"Give this to me!"
Li Chengfeng let out a hearty laugh as he charged forward. Like a dragonfly skimming the surface of water, he thrust his sword forward and unleashed Barrier Break. The magic knight let out a scream of agony as he collapsed to the ground. A damage number over 16000 floated up above his head. Li Chengfeng had activated Blitz. His Attack wasn't particularly high, but it was more than enough to kill a magic knight of this caliber.
… …
I looked to the front and saw a huge pile of corpses, potions, and equipment. However, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls wasn't interested in these items at all. We knew that our formation would be shaken if we tried to pick them up. We were outnumbered, and we couldn't afford to be complacent.
Thankfully, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' long-range attacks didn't disappoint us. Not a single one of the 4000 random riders was able to reach our melee range, and they were all killed before they could even get close. The rest of the readers looked at us normally:!
Xu Yang grinned. "Our archers and mages are so OP …"
I smiled back. "Of course!"
This was especially true for Beiming Xue's 100 archers. They had 150% Attack and 60% Attack Speed. Tsk tsk, if I were in her shoes, I would've surrendered immediately. No matter how strong a person was, they wouldn't be able to survive the combo of Shock Arrows and Spiraling Arrow Blades. The only way to survive was probably to activate an invincibility skill and charge forward. Of course, there were only a handful of people in the entire server who had the invincibility skill, and I had never used it before. So far, no one had been able to force me to use it.
… …
There was movement in front of us again. A group of people seemed to be discussing something. It wasn't long before a group of ground infantry and a lot of mounted players approached us. They were followed closely by archers, mages, priests, bards, tacticians and more. It looked like they were trying to push forward, and in fact, it was the most rational strategy. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' casualties were unavoidable.
Hall of Immortality, Rose of the Holy Domain and Throne Seeker had the absolute advantage in numbers, so they weren't going to show any mercy to Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, who only had 7000 players.
Li Chengfeng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and cursed, "How shameless! They're trying to push forward even when we're outnumbered? Fuck, they're so shameless …"
My eyes turned cold as I smiled. "Everyone, cheer up. The real battle is about to begin. Rose of the Holy Domain's subguild was charging us just now, so which guild does this team belong to?"
Chaos Moon narrowed her eyes and smiled. "It's Throne Seeker's first subguild. Oh, they're even sending their first subguild? It looks like they're getting serious.
Oh, it looks like Throne Seeker's second subguild is coming as well. There are so many of them, at least ten thousand of them … "
High Fighting Spirits chuckled. "Perfect timing. Let's kill to our heart's content. Book fans like to read:!"
I also smiled. "Prepare to serve the main course. Bards, buff all the warriors above Level 135. When the battle begins, high-level warriors, charge 20 yards to the front to attract the enemy's firepower and protect the rear!"
Li Chengfeng, High Fighting Spirits, Chaos Moon and the others nodded in unison. "Got it!"
In reality, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls only had 25 or so warriors above Level 135 when Gui Guzi and the others weren't around, but that was enough. If they all buffed each and every one of them, it wouldn't be too much of a problem to stop the enemy's cavalry. Moreover, they had priests to heal them. Heroic players at the front line to attract the enemy's firepower was a great counter to enemy tactics.
… …
It didn't take long for the enemy to enter our firing range. Beiming Xue and her archers were positioned high on the hills and boulders, so their attack range was increased by about 50% or so. When the enemy warriors were only 80 yards away from us, our archers and mages were already bombarding them with Far Shot and Ice Rain.
Clang clang clang!
The magic knights at the front raised their shields to block the archers' attacks. This time, our defensive line was much stronger than the last wave, and our teamwork had improved to a certain extent. However, there were still a lot of magic knights who fell to the arrows. Beiming Xue and her archers were just too powerful, and they couldn't be blocked even if they wanted to.
Thud thud thud...
The magic knights at the front fell off their mounts and died, but that didn't stop the players at the back from advancing. They continued to advance over the corpses of their comrades, and it wasn't long before the enemy archers and mages reached our firing range. They drew their bows and started firing Far Shot. Arrows rained down on the players at the front.
My HP started dropping, but most of them only took around 200 damage or so. It wasn't a big deal at all. Of course, the rest of the players weren't as lucky. Some of the lower-level warriors dropped below 50% HP, but the good news was that there were enough priests behind them to keep them alive. The rest of the players looked at me like normal.
I raised the Cyan Netherworld Sword and smiled. "Alright, high-level warriors, charge forward and keep them at least twenty yards away from each other. Don't give them a chance to get close to us!"
"Got it!"
Xu Yang, Chaos Moon, Li Chengfeng, High Fighting Spirits, and everyone else raised their swords and charged toward me. I was the first one to do so, and I was greeted by three magic knights from Throne Seeker's first subguild. They were all between Level 125 and 130, and they were all wielding spears. When they saw me, their fighting spirits actually rose. They laughed and said, "Haha, who is this?
Isn't this the Little Heavenly King of Sky City, Lu Chen?
Brothers and sisters, let's kill this Little Heavenly King! Hahaha ~ ~ "
I couldn't help but laugh. I released the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf and activated Charge!
Swhoosh!
I dashed forward and swung Burning Blade Slash at the three magic knights!
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!
Three flaming blades exploded in the middle of the crowd, and the three magic knights turned pale with fright. They hurriedly raised their shields to defend themselves, but how could they possibly stop me with such weak defenses?
I flicked my wrist slightly and changed the angle of my second Burning Blade Slash. Instead, I swung my sword upward and pushed aside their shields. The third attack was even more powerful, and it cut them down along with their mounts. A string of damage numbers popped up above their heads — 4902!
“13829！”
“20192！”
This feels so good! Magic knights of this level really can't take a single hit!
I let out a low shout and thrust my sword forward. Thousand Ice Slash whistled through the air and exploded in the middle of a group of players. Sparks flew everywhere as the attack dealt massive damage to the players around me. It was only a single attack, but it had cleared out a fan-shaped hole in the enemy's ranks. The players who died dropped their potions and equipment all over the ground.
"Fuck, is this guy really that strong?
Archers, don't just stand there like idiots! Kill him! Warriors, use Charge! Those with Barrier Break, go first! Everyone else, just watch as normal! "an assassin shouted.
Another warrior replied, "Go my ass! Let the archers do it! Our first subguild doesn't have more than 20 people with Barrier Break, so there's no way they're all here …"
As the archers fired their arrows, I raised my left arm and parried the attack with my jagged wristguard. Unfortunately for me, if I was a magic knight, I could equip a shield with my left arm and parry the attacks perfectly. Of course, there was no such thing as a class that was better than a magic knight. Warriors didn't have high Defense, but their Attack was definitely higher than a magic knight's.
A circle of warriors surrounded me, and I immediately stomped the ground. War Crush exploded, and a dozen or so warriors dropped to the ground. Before they could recover from their shock, I tossed an Icy Cyclone Domain into the crowd and killed a dozen or so archers in a row. My sword glowed with an intimidating sharpness as it spun around and pierced through a few mages who hadn't activated their shields yet. It was an instant kill!
Thud!
I firmly grabbed the hilts of the swords that were flying back to me. Then, I swung my sword twice and cut down two assassins who were trying to ambush me. Fuck, trying to ambush me while I was under the effect of Dark Pupils? Weren't they just asking for death?
There was no suspense at all. He was hacked to death while in Stealth. He probably didn't even know how he died.
Crack! Crack!
I thrust my sword forward and forced a Level 132 magic knight in front of me to stumble backward. Suddenly, the ring on my fingernail glowed brightly. The Silver Dragon Ring's Silver Dragon Storm effect was activated, and a ferocious silver dragon charged into the crowd. After a round of devastation, the ground was littered with rubble.
… …
A few seconds later, the Throne Seeker players in front of me froze in place and stared at me blankly.
I pointed the Cyan Netherworld Sword at the front and smiled. "Is there anyone else who wants to taste the power of a Heaven-grade weapon?"
