"Fuck, nice job, Warsky! Everyone else, just watch:!"
I turned pale with fright as I stabbed the nearest female Heroic Bannerman to death. At the same time, the Phantom Wolf King's Purgatory Storm exploded in the middle of the crowd. I was forced to take a few steps back as I raised my hand and fired a lethal Burning Blade Slash. Three flaming blades of sword energy swept through the crowd and enveloped all of the stunned players. I even threw an Icy Cyclone Domain at them. I was determined not to let them live.
Not far away, Lin Yixin leapt onto her mount and made a comeback. She raised her sword and unleashed an Ice Flame Slash + Ice Storm combo, wreaking havoc in the crowd. He Yi, who was riding beside Lin Yixin, unleashed a Purgatory of Ice and Magma quintuple slash.
"Roar roar roar …"
Muffled groans kept ringing in the air. Fourteen Heroic Bannermen were killed by the Heavenwarring Ghost Banner's sneaky tricks. Although there were plenty of priests healing them, Lin Yixin, He Yi and I had high attack power and good teamwork. The gap between our attacks was so small that we were able to one-shot all fourteen Heroic Bannermen in one go!
"Damn it!"
At the distance, Vienna's Sorrow was grinding his teeth so hard that they almost broke. He never thought that he would suffer such a huge loss right from the get-go, but he had underestimated the guild leader of Warsky Alliance. According to his information, Warsky Alliance, the second strongest guild in China, was powerful, but it was only because of Lin Bing Dou Zhe, Farewell Song, and October Rain. Their guild leader was a useless piece of trash. Unfortunately for Vienna's Sorrow, he never thought that the guild leader of Warsky Alliance would become a Divine General himself, much less become this powerful!
The loss of 14 Heroic Bannermen in one fell swoop was no joke. Take the China server for example. If I, Lin Yixin, Li Chengfeng, October Rain, Stranger of Three Lifetimes and the rest of the CGL Hall of Famers were killed by the enemy's ambush, every player in the entire China server would probably die of heartache.
… …
"Swhoosh! Fans like to watch:!"
Candlelight Shadow used Charge and locked onto Vienna's Sorrow. Unsurprisingly, Vienna's Sorrow dodged his Charge, but he didn't give up. He swung his sword in a circle before raising his palm and unleashing Outer Flame at the enemy archer party, setting them ablaze.
Vienna's Sorrow's face twitched as he shouted, "Mystic Alliance, repel them! The rest of you, follow me into the inner area! We're going to take out the boss!"
A group of Mystic Alliance mages stood in front of us, and there were at least a few thousand of them. Fuck, the Northern Alliance sure was willing to sacrifice their mages. So many mages had passed through the trap formation, and if they failed, they would've died at least ten times that number.
The chanting of spells merged into one, and a sea of fire appeared in front of the China players. The Viper Dragoons at the very front were shredded to pieces by Galaxy Storms, Dragon's Roars and more. Moreover, there was no lack of first-rate mages among these mages. Rare skills such as Freezing Wind Blade, Scorching Rock, and Earth Spring Blast kept the China players at bay.
Candlelight Shadow raised a hand and shouted, "Eagle Eye, go! Kill them all! Don't leave a single one alive!"
Candle Dragon's top archer, Carrot, immediately jumped out and activated Eagle Eye with a group of archers. Not only did the skill increase their attack range, it also increased their physical attack power by a lot!
Thud thud thud!
Spiraling Arrow Blades, Volley, and other arrows flew through the air, exploding with dazzling light as they fell into the crowd of players. The Mystic Alliance's Mages groaned in agony, their Magic Shields twisting and distorting. Some Mages' Magic Shields couldn't withstand the torment and were instantly killed by the arrows.
Beiming Xue, Coldmoon Rose, and the rest of the archers activated Firing Range and launched an ambush. Although there weren't many players in China who had learned Firing Range, it was more than enough to deal with the northern mages. After all, there weren't more than 50k players who had entered the ninth floor of the Soul Suppressing Tower.
… …
"Are we just going to wait here?"
Lin Yixin held her sharp sword and looked at the net of firepower in the distance. She said helplessly.
"Yeah, let's wait. The boss still has 55% HP left!" I nodded.
"How did you know?" The little beauty looked at me.
I grinned. "Good eyesight …"
"Hmph hmph!"
I didn't say anything else as I absorbed the undead sparks from the corpses of the Dark Guardians around me. I couldn't afford to waste my energy. These dread-rank mobs weren't easy to run into outside the Soul Suppressing Tower, and I was just a tiny Asura right now. I would become even more powerful after I evolved into an Asura King and then an Asura God.
… …
It didn't take long for the Northern Alliance mages to realize that our strategy was a good one. The ranged attacks of the China server's archers were simply too powerful, and they couldn't keep up.
Chiang!
I pulled out the Cyan Netherworld Sword and said with a smile, "It's our turn. Dragonlight Cavalry, prepare to charge!"
The moment I gave the order, I charged out of the encirclement without fear. Right now, I had the 40% HP buff from the Bloodknight Card, 50% Physique buff from Pure Love, and almost 300k HP. I also had the insane Magic Resist of the Heaven-burning Armor, so I wasn't afraid of these spells at all.
The Armored Ice Qilin Horse let out a long neigh as I passed through the net of firepower. As expected, I only lost 30k HP or so after a series of Galaxy Storms and Dragon's Roars.
Boom!
I raised my sword and fired three Burning Blade Slashes at them. Then, I followed up with a Charge and swiftly teleported myself to the core of the Fabris Pouch. I raised my hooves and used War Crush, killing a bunch of mages who screamed in pain. It was their bad luck to run into a killing machine like me.
Behind them, a beautiful figure charged toward them while the tinkling of silver bells filled the air. It was none other than the Dagger Goddess with the bells on her wrist. Ice Flame Slash and Ice Storm were unleashed one after another, and the Northern Alliance mages were devastated. They were no match for her at all!
To make matters worse, the Purple Dragon Cavalry and Dragonlight Cavalrymen were charging at him from behind. They charged into the mages' ranks like tigers charging into a flock of sheep. Even the strongest mages couldn't survive this kind of torment!
… …
In less than five minutes, the thousands of high-level mages of the Northern Alliance were killed in a corner. When I looked further ahead, I could already see the boss. A bunch of Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen had tried to tank the boss, but they died one after another. The number of casualties continued to pile up.
The boss was a black-and-white tiger king. It was also a Level 195 Immortal Rank boss, and its stats were so high that only "???" could be seen. Its name was Yin Yang Tiger.
Swhoosh!
The tiger king swung its paw and tore a rift in front of us with the power of thunder. It was the Heaven-opening Tiger's Spatial Tear skill!
A dozen or so Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen were sucked into the rift and sent to god knows where. Anxious, Vienna shouted, "Fill in the gaps! Keep surrounding the boss! Mages, archers, keep up the DPS! This boss won't last much longer!"
I took a closer look and suddenly froze. "Eve, Yiyi, did you guys notice that the boss's eyes are closed when it's killing us?"
"Yeah, I saw it …" He Yi nodded.
Lin Yixin also nodded. "Yeah, that does seem to be the case."
Li Chengfeng asked, "What will happen if the boss opens its eyes?"
Chaos Moon raised her sword. "Something unlucky will happen …"
"Is that so?" Gui Guzi grinned. Book fans loved to read:)
… …
As if to prove everyone's point, the Yin Yang Tiger abruptly opened its left eye. It was a pair of golden eyes, and a beam of golden light shot out of it!
Swhoosh!
Wherever the beam passed, a string of damage numbers popped up — 131292!
“125636！”
“172662！”
… …
Every China player was shocked, but the Northern Alliance players remained calm. Clearly, they had experienced this before. Although the damage numbers were high, not a single player died. Every player hit by the beam of golden light only had 1 HP left!
Then, the tiger king let out a roar and spat out a mouthful of fire. Perfect! The low-health players collapsed to the ground before they could heal themselves. Even the Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen were one-shot!
However, the boss closed its eye again an instant later. It was a Yang Eye! Shit!
In less than half a minute, following the tiger's roar, tragedy struck again. The Yin-Yang Tiger once again opened its other eye, the legendary Yin Eye!
Swhoosh!
The moment the eye opened, I was surrounded by darkness. I couldn't see a thing more than two steps ahead of me!
"Fuck, what … what kind of skill is this?"
Gui Guzi waved his spear and said, "What should we do if we get ambushed?"
"Ahhhh …" High Fighting Spirits shouted, "Don't poke me, Gui Kid! Don't move! We're all on the same side! If you move again, I'll break your neck …"
… …
"So this is how Vienna's Sorrow and the others kill the boss. No wonder so many of them died and no one came to attack us …" Li Chengfeng sighed. Book fans loved to read:)
Not far away, Candlelight Shadow raised his sword and waited for the Yin Eye to expire. Then, he shouted, "Attack! It's time to steal the boss! Candle Dragon, show the northern wolves what we're made of!"
Blue Sky Scar, Tempest Shadow, Transient Smoke and Clouds and the others charged at the boss. The Northern Alliance looked strong on the outside, but they were actually weak on the inside. Candle Dragon alone was more than enough to take them out.
Warsky also raised his sword and shouted, "Warsky Alliance, attack! Steal the boss!"
Luo River God of the Capital, Stranger of Three Lifetimes, Ling Xueshang, Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties, Indigo Collar, Dominating Heaven Blade, Wang Dongliang and more followed suit. The big guilds of the China server had set their sights on the boss, and they attacked without any regard for their lives. The Northern Alliance had lost too many players to the boss, and they were on the verge of death.
… …
"Boss Broken Halberd, should we go and steal the boss with 40% HP?" Gui Guzi looked at me.
Li Chengfeng raised the Augustus' Spear and said with a smile, "Let's go, it'll be fun …"
I shook my head and said, "Let's not provoke the boss. Let's circle around the side and kill Vienna's Sorrow. He has the Tiger Soul Essence of the Heaven-slaughtering Tiger in his bag, and that's what we're after!"
He Yi giggled. "See? Lu Chen is the only one who can keep a cool head …"
