Chapter 1231: Sneak attack success



Chapter 1231: Sneak attack success

At dusk, news spread that the sneak attack team led by Prague, Judgement, Enemies by the Gate etc had successfully entered the forest near Territory of the Wild Dragon. They killed the monks to destroy 7 hell tunnels to cut off their soldier supply line. At this moment, they started to attack other tunnels. As long as they did that, we could slice off the deep cold currents and help Dragon City gain an advantage.

……

The scenes that spread from the frontline were a little tough to look at. Pearl and Sif led the Hybrid Demon army to fight back. The 120 thousand that attacked had over 70% losses in just two hours. But Yan Zhao Warrior and Ye Lai were going all out and they swore to return only after destroying the last hole. But I knew that with Azure there, even if they managed to succeed, they probably wouldn’t be able to return.

“Hong hong…”

Snow landed around and onto my shoulder. Butterfly shone coldly in my hands as I stood in the snow and looked into the distance. 17 minutes passed since the last time they attacked so the new wave should come. Pearl’s strategy was really simple. She would delay us at Dragon City and no let us retreat. The real killing move was the currents.

Each moment there would be NPCs that froze to death. Tian Ling City’s various armies were suffering losses and that was something that we had to consider.

“They are here again, Snow Giants!” Li Mu raised his sword, “Prepare to kill the monsters!”

Snow Giant, level 8 Hybrid Demon, another new soldier type. These giant monsters had strong legs and arms. Especially their arms which could stab into the mountain and be able to climb up. They were 10 meters tall and the city walls of Dragon City were nothing to them.

I waved my palm and placed an Azure Dragon Crossbow beside me. At the same time, I tossed Gan Jiang out and Blade Spin helped to kill a snow giant in the front. It pierced through them and greatly reduced their health. At the same time, Dancing Forest’s Sun Shooting Bow was going insane. Her arrows stabbed into the necks of the snow giants causing blood to splatter. Within 7 seconds she was actually able to kill a full health level 8 snow giant. This damage was just too shocking.

In the snow, the snow giants appeared and a cold breeze blew across. Our field of sight got slightly better. A dense amount of snow giants appeared below the mountain and there were over a hundred thousand of them. This wasn’t a probing attack but a full scale attack. I looked toward Qing Luo and said, “Send the Dragonriders and clear out these snow giants!”

“Yes Sir!”

Qing Luo blew her whistle and she rode on the neck of the crystal dragon. She raised her sword and many dragon riders flew up. Frost was injured so I was in charge of the Dragon City army.

The Dragonriders flew forwards and started to kill the snow giants. However, after all, there were too few of them. The snow giants surged towards the city. The players’ combat strength was reduced so it was tough for us to hold on. Apart from me that had a 30% increase in stats after death, I was the only one that had similar stats to normal.

“Dragon Crystal Cannons!”

I sliced off the head of a snow giant and ordered them to fire. The Royal Army Major Jing Yin nodded and commanded the Royal Army to fire. The moment the Dragon Crystal Cannons fired, mushroom clouds exploded among the snow giants. The heatwaves was also hard to bear for the other snow giants.

At this moment, Lin Wan Er pointed at the sky, “Be careful, the Thousand Hand Monsters are coming.”

In the sky, a dense group appeared. As expected, they were all Thousand Hand Monsters with tentacles. They used streaks of lightning to attack Dragon City. This was really problematic.

“Archers, use Scattered Shot. Mages focus fire and kill them all!” Xue Rou raised her sword and ordered the defenses. She flew over and marked Thousand Hand Monsters to kill them. This could greatly reduce our current losses.

Thousand Hand Monsters were level nine Hybrid Demons so their stats weren’t weaker than Bosses. Even I could get insta killed by them so much less the players on the walls. Moreover, Pearl was going all out this time. Over 10 thousand Thousand Hand Monsters descended from above and made things hard for the players on the walls.

I gave up on chasing the snow giants and turned towards the sky. My swords sliced between two of the monsters and cut off many tentacles. But I was damaged too. Lightning surged on my armor and that numb feeling was quite unbearable.

I raised my hand and used Thundering Heavens+Dragon Totem to sweep the Thousand Hand Monsters. I attracted the aggro of over ten of them. My health started to drop and although Darling Duck healed me, it wasn’t enough. Li Mu and Wang Jian flew into the sky and turned into Dragonriders to assist me. This was all we could do.

The city walls were a mess and pretty much each corner was facing a thunder attack. These Thousand Hand Monsters were like aliens from above which killed us. Every moment there would be cavalries and Furnance God Cavalries that died. Archers and Mages were also exposed to their attacks. Zhan Long was like that so much less other guilds. Legend, Hero Mound, Appearance Alliance went all out to defend. Guilds like Running Like Flames, Rising Sun like Blood etc were also attacked by the Thousand Hand Monsters!

In just a moment, many Running Like Flames players fled. Rumor couldn’t control his own guild members. Even Legend and Hero Mount players didn’t retreat and still maintained their full formation to deal with the Hybrid Demons.

Right at that moment, a person jumped up from the walls and slashed his axe into the crowd. It was Ranmin Warsoul, his axe killed seven of them. His strength was definitely far above that of players.

I took a glance and he was a five star boss, slightly weaker than Frost, Zhi Shu, Lanais etc but much stronger than Qing Luo and Jing Yin.

Thus, with his help, the players on the walls also went all out. Anyways we knew that Ye Lai and Yan Zhao Warrior were destroying the hell cracks so the number of them would reduce. If we killed them all then our quests would be done.

South of the city was the Autumn Harvest Army, Fire Axe Army and Violent Thunder Army that surged up the walls to assist. However, the cold breeze was still there. Normal soldiers’ combat strength was greatly reduced so many people froze to death in the cold. Many of them were killed by the tentacles and scorched by lightning. Dragon City was like a grave, each second there would be people dying.

“Slice!”

Wang Jian was in low health and he looked as the Running like Flames players retreated. He burst out laughing, “Great Battle Axe’s guild, tsk a bunch of trash!”

Li Mu laughed coldly, “Just a bunch of dogs that abuse their power, why care about them. Look, Rising Sun like Blood might be annoying but none of them left!”

Call me Master heard that, this beautiful cavalry thrust her spear into the stomach of a Thousand Hand Monster and smiled, “Flee, we can’t throw this face!”

Beside her, Su Yan etc fought and didn’t retreat. Let’s not talk about Wang Ze Cheng’s character but the people he recruited were all quite decent.

……

The battle lasted for three hours and over 50 thousand Thousand Hand Monsters died. Over 200 thousand players were killed by them. We paid such a huge price. This tragic battle was not something we had faced before since entering the game. The walls were covered in corpses but the good news was that the weather wasn’t so cold. The deep cold effect that players faced was reduced by 50% and they weren’t so weak anymore.

The news came from afar that Yan Zhao Warrior killed the last monk and closed the tunnel. But few of the 120 thousand of them remained. Even Yan Zhao Warrior himself was insta killed by Azure. Ye Lai and Misty Clouds died too. Only a dozen Assassins left the stronghold in stealth. Although the sneak attack was a success but it was too tragic!

A while later, a sun appeared in the sky above Dragon City. The snow stopped and the cold disappeared. Kate still summoned the storm but he wasn’t able to summon the deep breeze so the storm couldn’t do much.

……

Our field of vision became much wider. In the distance, the plains were covered in Lamp Zombies, Thousand Hand Monsters and snow giant corpses as well as those of players and NPCs. Smoke billowed, it was as if it was telling the players how intense this battle was. I didn’t know whether or not the battle ended but we knew that we couldn’t be overconfident.

“Remove the destroyed cannons and move new ones over.” I ordered Jing Yin, “Carry the injured down and call 50 thousand Xiayu Army troops to defend.”

Jing Yin nodded, “Yes sir!”

She turned around. This time Han Yuan and Xiao Lie didn’t follow by her side. This made me feel like she was a real talent. Moreover, she killed many monsters. Her level and grade kept rising and in a while, she would be able to be a real leader.

……

Players on the walls were clearing up the battlefield. The Thousand Hand Monsters had a good drop rate and many of the people got decent equipment. Those who survived had huge gains. Once the battle ended, the levels and rewards of the players would be high but unfortunately, Yan Zhao Warrior and Ye Lai were dead.
