Chapter 431: Don’t Let Them Get Away!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The northern sector of Moonrise City.

After Qin Ruo had successfully slain Savior, Violet Orchid led a team of Radiant Priests to swiftly revive every Tier 5 Champion in the battlefield and found the items they had dropped. Given the importance of the Tier 5 Champions’ fight, every clan elites were self-respecting enough to not do embarrassing things such as stealing ally champions’ equipment.

However, there were those that were especially attentive of the area where Savior fell—being one of the most powerful Demon Faction players, the Legendary highest-grade items that dropped off him certainly capturing great interest of many players.

Be that as it may, those things had already been plundered dry, with simply nothing around there apart from a corpse.

Damn it. Great ability, and such speed at plundering items.

An embarrassment!

And said embarrassment was unquestionably Qin Ruo—when the twelve Frostramparts exploded, he had incidentally landed right beside Savior. Who else could have taken those items?

Still, when they thought about it, the players following behind Violet Orchid calmed themselves. In the end, it was Qin Ruo who had killed Savior, and naturally he was most qualified to claim those items. All they could do was find it all a pity…

***

With more than twenty Tier 5 Champions revived and swiftly seizing control over the city walls, seizing the moment to drive wildly forward at the frontline that had been left hanging by a thread on Savior’s terms!

Now, there was no longer a single Tier 5 Demon Faction Champion in sight north of the city. After all, how could a bunch of Tier 4 Elites repel an assault by Tier 5 Champions? It simply did not work, even when some Bowmasters hurriedly charged spells, intent on using powerful long-ranged physical attacks to delay the reclamation of the northern ramparts…

The Demon Faction had lost all aerial superiority over the north of the city!

Black Rock, Apocalypse and Qin Ruo swiftly formed a team, taking turns to move above the Demon Faction players and unleash Tier 5 AoE spells.

Beneath the force of the super-long ranged and potent assault, the astonishing shockwaves left the Tier 4 Bowmasters unable to stand. How would they even threaten the Tier 5 Champions’ push?

Thus, they simply watched helplessly as overlapping AoE magic approached, after of which their corpses were trampled over by the Angel Faction—the five-hundred-meter-long ramparts had fallen into their hands quickly, but was not slowly reclaimed either.

Pincered, the Demon Faction players who were teleporting incessantly to the ramparts simply stopped above the backs of the War Behemoths, watching as the flames of battle was pushed towards the city gates…

In that very moment, everyone knew that the Angel Faction’s counter-attack was beginning comprehensively.

***

News about the situation at the northern ramparts of Moonrise City quickly spread to the other Angel Factions in the three other sectors!

Those in the Three Great Leagues learned at once as well that without Death Jesus and Leon interfering, the Demon Faction players who had climbed up to the northern ramparts could not form any meaningful resistance, and was routed as Qin Ruo and the other Tier 5 champions’ powerful assault!

Furthermore, it was now less than thirty minutes after the Demon Faction had climbed the northern ramparts!

“Him again?”

Compared to the excited members of Bauhinia and the Hall of Heroes, those affiliated to the Netherspirit’s Claw felt complicated emotions.

Qin Ruo the Winter Demon!

“Well this is getting fun…”

Netherclaw mumbled over the southern ramparts; his mood gradually tangling.

It was only yesterday that Qin Ruo had killed his Field Commander in the Buried City and forced him to relieve Chameleon from his Field Commander duty. He even intended to find a chance to dampen the Aquamancer’s stride in the Buried City after completing the second phase of his mission, but never could he have imagined that Qin Ruo fought equally against Death Jesus, before moving on to kill their number one enemy of the Demon Faction as everyone looked on.

Regardless of whether he achieved all that thanks to Violet Orchid’s help, Qin Ruo’s growth has progressed again, just as his abilities became more profound and vague amidst waves of rumors!

“…”

Most importantly, this battle could greatly increase Qin Ruo’s positive image!

Before this, countless players were entertained and often commented on Qin Ruo’s behavior towards the Netherspirit Claw in the official forums because there were not many factors to be considered. However, after this battle, every clan, league and faction struggle would view all developments in the Angel Faction with great importance to prevent a third siege by the Demon Faction!

Moreover, Qin Ruo’s accomplishments here could leave Netherspirit Claw evidently guilty if they tried anything against him in the future, leaving other players with an impression of themselves being malicious bullies. Majestic Hero and Scarlet Bauhinia would certainly hold their silence anymore then—courting Qin Ruo, a potential Tier 5 Supreme Champion was absolutely worth the risk for them to leave Netherspirit Claw red-faced.

Still, he remembered the grudge between Dark Dragon and Qin Ruo.

Utterly emotional, Netherclaw sighed at the distant night sky.

“It’s time to put an end to this.”

***

Compared to Netherclaw’s dithering and Majestic Hero’s rejoicing, Scarlet Bauhinia became more solemn and alert despite learning about the developments in the northern ramparts.

“Netherspirit, Hero. Time to focus, there might be a tough fight soon!”

“Yeah.” Majestic Hero thought so as well.

At the moment, the situation at the northern ramparts, the most threatened zone changed dramatically. Over fifty Tier 5 champions were now stationed there, with Qin Ruo and other Angelic Wings champions rapidly moving around supporting every zone of battle. Indeed, the northern zone was saved, and here comes the danger.

The Demon Faction would be clearly aware that the Angel Faction’s reinforcements were gathering from towns nearby Moonrise City, and would approach from several different directions! Therefore, they would hold nothing back in the last half hour of assault they have here, delaying the “one-hour login” until the very last second.

Due to the lack of time, the battle would not come to the north! The Demon Faction would assault the three other sectors just before every single one of their players was pushed out of the northern ramparts to extend the login duration…

However, with their forces equally distributed over the other three sectors, they could not simultaneously lay siege on all three directions.

“Scarlet. Which point of entry do you think they’ll pick?”

“All of them are likely…”

Scarlet was uncertain how to reply Majestic Hero. After all, with the masses beyond the city, they could not be sure about the position and movements of every Tier 5 Champion in the Three Great Leagues.

Perspective-taking… if he were the one leading the siege against the city…

He would discreetly determine his targets and redirect personnel from the other two sectors, hiding in the crowd and biding their time until the north side of the city was forced to its critical moment.

That would be when he burst out in a single stroke, ambushing and boarding the ramparts, thereby extending the time and moving closer to the system-determined time limit for conquering the city! The outcome of the entire battle could well be decided before their reinforcements arrived!

“Focus on monitoring the War Behemoths’ surroundings, and spread the word if there’s any movement. It’s now the final thirty minutes—we must hold the line!”

In the command channel, the dozen Clan Leaders all had the same thought: this last half-hour would decide the survival of their clans!

***

The skies above the northern ramparts of Moonrise City.

After Savior’s death, Daisywave, the Tier 5 Radiant Swordsman had been on patrol duty to find signs of any Tier 5 Demon Faction champions in the skies, outside the city, or occasionally studying the situation on other zones.

The other sectors were still at a stalemate! Despite every Demon Faction knowing that the Angel Faction would soon reclaim the north and that they would soon be pincered, they took not a single step back, clearly intending to delay their opponents.

That situation lasted almost ten minutes.

Then, when Qin Ruo and several other Tier 5 Champions pushed up to less than a hundred meters away from the edge of the city, an astonishing sight presented itself.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Outside the city where the battle raged were several almost inaudible echoes as flat chunks of boulders were plucked out from the side of the ramparts! As if a mechanism designed beforehand, a temporary set of stairs winding down to the ground outside the city was pulled out!

As the battle thundered on, no one noticed the manmade stairs that appeared right beside the city.

“That’s…”

Daisywave’s expression changed at once.

There was no wonder the Demon Faction would not retreat…

They had already made a hidden passageway!

Being a woman and rather knowing in such aspects, she was aware that the enemy’s retreat would reduce considerable resistance and combat, just as the Demon Faction might have other intentions in using it.

Furthermore, there are almost thirty Tier 5 Champions in that place. Where would they appear next if they leave now?

“The Demon Faction is escaping!”

Daisywave quickly alerted Qin Ruo’s trio who were taking turns to charge spells, leaving the Aquamancer stunned.

Flying to the flank of the ramparts where Daisywave pointed, it was only that Qin Ruo discovered the rather inconspicuous stone stairs—several Tier 5 Demon Faction Champions had left the ramparts under the cover of suppressing fire.

Meanwhile, an amazing light shone from afar, to the eastern side.

Qin Ruo and the other three simultaneously noticed that boundless magical oscillation, their hearts at once skipping a beat.

Things were getting started over there as well!

Even as the thought crossed his mind, there was a boundless oscillation of magical energy on the eastern side of the city. A pillar of flame could be seen towering into the skies!

Soon, the pillar of flame began to sway, breaking into countless sparks that violently and rapidly turned into an unusually dazzling and magnificent fireworks show over the eastern side of the city!

It was a single Tier 5 AoE offensive magic!

“Heavens!”

Black Rock mumbled as he looked in that direction, his eyes revealing astonishment. “Has the Demon Faction gone mad, having Tier 5 Champions to force a push on the east side with their lives?”

Qin Ruo’s shuddered inwardly. Suddenly remembering the artificial stone stairs that Daisywave had pointed at, his expression changed drastically as a bolt struck his mind.

“This is bad! Don’t let them get away!!!”

“Violet, I’m leaving this zone to you!”

“Black Rock, Apocalypse, stop them!”

With a flap of his Angelic Wings, Qin Ruo promptly accelerated to his speed as all four streaked past above the Demon Faction players, darting towards the group of people quietly leaving the northern side of the city.
