Chapter 303 - 303 Yamata No Orochi
303 Yamata No Orochi
Su Wan contacted Shi Linglong and the others to explore some underground areas.
Zhao Qingrong didn’t join them this time because she wanted to stay back and upgrade her Territory Core to Level 3.
Su Wan needed to collect as many resources as possible. She wasn’t far from upgrading her territory to Level 4. After that, Xu Yuan would be able to reach Level 100.
The Light-Types were at an advantage right now.
“I haven’t thanked you properly for helping me out last time. If you ever need help with anything, don’t hesitate to tell me,” said Shi Linglong. “I will try my best to repay you.”
She didn’t even know that the six-winged Seraphim had been leading an Angel Army toward her territory to launch a sneak attack. If Su Wan hadn’t told her, she wouldn’t have found out at all. Her Territory Core would have been destroyed by now if Xu Yuan hadn’t intervened.
“Is that so?” said Xu Yuan jokingly. “Then why not devote yourself to me?”
Xu Yuan didn’t really need anything from her, but it was good to banter with her.
Shi Linglong blushed. “Except that, I agree with everything.”
“Xu Yuan, stop joking,” said Su Wan. “Please don’t mind him, Linglong. He is just joking.”
Xu Yuan knew how irritating Xu Yuan could be sometimes, but he helped out when they needed him.
After about two hours, they arrived at the Level 60 dungeon. If the monsters in this dungeon all escaped to the surface, the world would suffer massive damage.
They would need to pass through the first level, kill all monsters, and obtain the key. Only then would they be able to reach the second floor.
This time, it was very risky. The threat level was high.
After all, the underground dungeon wasn’t explored yet. There might be many types of creatures and monsters in the first level. Killing them was bound to earn more experience points.
For many Lords, this would definitely be an opportunity.
At this moment, Zhao Qingrong sent news that someone was planning to invade the territory while she was exploring the underground dungeons.
They had been bantering as they walked, but now everyone was on high alert. Some Lords couldn’t learn a lesson even if it smacked them on their faces.
They postponed the exploration and everyone, including Xu Yuan, rushed to Zhao Qingrong’s territory.
…
Near Zhao Qingrong’s territory, hundreds of giant lizards swarmed from all directions. The Lords with Light-Type heroes approached menacingly.
Hundreds of troops charged. This was definitely a declaration of war!
“If you leave now and promise not to cause trouble in the future, I will pretend this never happened!” shouted Zhao Qingrong.
She tried her best to negotiate with the enemy. If she could solve the problem without violence, she was even more willing to cooperate.
However, if the enemies didn’t want to listen to reason, she wouldn’t back down from a fight.
“I’m warning you once again. Return to your own territories. Otherwise, I’m not going to hold back any longer.”
The enemies were unwilling to retreat. Since their Territory Cores were intact, they didn’t want to head back. They could gain points from fighting Zhao Qingrong, after all.
Thousands of troops began to attack Zhao Qingrong’s territory. Her defense of the territory was spectacular. It was not easy for the enemies to break through.
“What even is this?” said a Lord in shock. “How can her territory withstand so much damage?”
The Lord had led other Lords to attack an SSS-class wild monster and gained a red treasure that was very powerful. However, it was no match for Zhao Qingrong’s defensive fortifications.
[Territory protection: SSS-class.]
[Note: Increases 25000 defense points of the city wall, increases 30% immunity and 40% defense. When HP falls below 20%, the invincibility effect will be triggered for 5 seconds.]
Zhao Qingrong’s defense was almost impenetrable!
The Lords launched a fierce attack together, but they only managed to take down 10,000 defense points. That did nothing to Zhao Qingrong’s territory.
“Yamata no Orochi! Attack!”
One of the Lords summoned Yamata no Orochi. A giant eight-headed snake appeared in the fray. The creature attacked and brought down another 10,000 defense points.
With Xu Yuan with them, Su Wan and the others had no reason to panic. They even had the nine-headed Hydra with them. What was an eight-headed snake in comparison, anyway?
“A Level 56 hero?!” Xu Yuan was surprised. He had activated the True Eye of the Demonic Dragon to find out about the eight-headed snake.
Except for Su Wan and her friends, all their troops were of Level 40.
Su Wan was also stunned. The creature wasn’t the Lord’s initial hero, either. The Lord must have used some special treasure to summon such a hero.
The Lord who was leading the battle laughed maniacally.
Although the territory’s defense was very high, Orochi’s attacks weren’t any less vicious. Coupled with the other Lords and their attacks, the defenses might actually fall.
“Two-handed cross blade!” Zhao Qingrong saw that Orochi’s attacks were brutal, so she activated her SSS-class treasure.
[Two-Handed Cross Blade: Every five normal attacks can trigger a critical hit. Critical hit damage increases strength by 20%. Using this treasure can increase damage by 20% and penetration by 40%. When activated, piercing can cause 20000 damage.]
The leader of the Lords was shocked. ‘Zhao Qingrong has another SSS-class treasure?!’ Such SSS-class weapons and treasure could only be obtained by killing monsters of the same class.
At present, no one could deal with SSS-class creatures alone. Even an alliance between several Lords would have difficulty killing such a monster.
They did not know that Zhao Qingrong had an advantage. They had Xu Yuan by their side. By following Su Wan and Xu Yuan on their expeditions, Zhao Qingrong, Shi Linglong, and Lin Yao had gained many benefits.
Lin Yao used her Sacred Fire Mage form to fight.
The leader of the Lords frowned. ‘Where did Zhao Qingrong find that treasure?’
The probability of obtaining an SSS-class treasure was very low, and Zhao Qingrong has two of them! That couldn’t be a coincidence.
