Chapter 735 – Lion King Shield (2/2)
I replied, “Don’t worry, it’ll be soon!”
Meng Yao added, “Slow down Brother, I can’t see you anymore.”
“Got it”!
I gripped Wan Er’s waist and grabbed the rope of Meng Yao’s Verdant Pear and walked her forward. After all, she was my sister. She was going to act a little spoiled around me. And, now that I had a girlfriend like Wan Er, Meng Yao was already bringing it in a lot more. If she was anything like she was before, then no matter how generous Wan Er was, she’d still walk away in a fit of anger…..
……
Close to 15 minutes later, we reached the western bank of Mirror Lake. We had been moving stealthily under the water, so there wasn’t much danger. But, as I looked at a distance, I saw an enormous black monster slowly moving at the bottom of the lake. It suddenly charged at us. It was a monster with a long neck and scissor like pincers growing out of the top of its head. It’s black beady eyes stared right at us. Its body was like that of a cockroach and two snake like arms with sharp blades at the end grew from beside its neck. It looked like there was poison on the ends as well.
“It’s a Shelled Dragon!” Li Mu clenched his teeth, “It’s coming right at us! Prepare your defenses!”
I quickly turned my horse back into the water and typed, “No one activate any skills! The light is too noticeable and we’ll attract too much attention. I’ll grab the Shelled Dragon while everyone else use normal attacks against it. Dong Cheng, don’t attack. You’re skills are all magic attacks, creating a magic circle on the surface of the water.”
Everyone nodded.
I was the first to charge over and take on the Shelled Dragon. It raised its terrifying head and charged right at me. “Hua!” I swam right at us. “Ka ka” the pinchers crossed and I quickly grabbed a hold of them. Once I did, I found out that its entire neck was covered in a rock hard shell. Furthermore, it seems that the information that Q-Sword had given me was wrong. This wasn’t a Titan Tier monster, it was a Level 6 Hybrid Demon. Motherf*cker, just what is a fierce monster like this doing at the bottom of the lake?
I waved my arm. “Shua!” my Dragon Reservoir Sword flew out in a stab. The Shelled Dragon’s two arms were already twisting towards me. It suddenly wrapped around my arm. My movements underwater were far slower, how could I match against an absolute powerhouse like this? As it trapped one of my arms, its other arm suddenly shot towards me again.. This time, it dealt a fierce slice towards my shoulder!
“Pu pu pu….”
Blood flowed into the water. Even my defense couldn’t stand against this Shelled Dragon’s attack! One after another, damage numbers flew up——
“7193！”
“6127！”
“8122！”
……
Darling Duck quickly raised her staff and I shouted, “Don’t heal me! I’ll drink potions!”
As I was typing, I quickly drank down a Level 12 Purple Spirit Pill and recovered all of my health. At the same time, I pulled out my Brilliant Flame Emperor with my left arm and cut into the Shelled Dragon. Wan Er swam out from my lap and pulled out both daggers. “Ka Ka KA!” she cut into the Shelled Dragon. Li Mu, Wang Jian and the others also pulled out their weapons and charged over. Everyone began hacking at the Shelled Dragon. The lake water was turning red from the blood. None of us used any skills, or else our movements would be too conspicuous. If anyone was looking from a distance, they wouldn't even be able to see the red water here.
The shelled dragon really was a very terrifying monster, especially if I were fighting alone at the bottom of the river and in a circumstance where I couldn’t use any skills. Luckily, there were several others with me. In a fit of fury, the Shelled Dragon finally died and its body began floating to the surface. I quickly typed, “Don’t let it float to the surface or else we’ll be exposed!”
Lin Xiao Xie quickly grabbed the Shelled Dragon’s tail and dragged the body back. She raised her halberd and “Pu chi!” Pierced it through its body. After that, she nailed it to the bottom of the lake and turned around to look at me, “Guildmaster now what do we do?”
I pointed to the right and said, “There's a dense thicket of watergrass over there. If we go there, our red names won’t appear and it won’t show up on the map. We’ll take a breath of air there and continue in the water!”
“Ok!”
We all surfaced on the right flank and looked towards the distance, only to see that the [Dawn] players were also charging into the water. However, not long after that, a scream rang out. A black snake like figure twisted around, grabbing onto the players. The water around them was dyed red. There was no need to think otherwise, there must be several of the Shelled Dragons there and the [Dawn] players must have bumped right into them!
One of the team leaders raised his bow and shouted, “SHIT, it’s a Shelled Dragon! We bumped into a nest of Shelled Dragons. Guildmaster, what do we do?”
Hand of Waterloo charged right into the water with his sword raised and shouted, “Don’t hesitate and kill them all! Xiao Yao Zi Zai and the others must have already entered the underground palace. That country weapon belongs to France! We cannot let the Chinese players take it! Otherwise, that’ll become my life’s humiliation. Let the British know and have them bring people to help us!”
“Yes sir!”
……
Blood and waves continuously unfurled in the water. Who knows how many Shelled Dragons were in that water. A thousand of [Dawn]’s horsemen were in that water and who knows how many of them had died. However, the Hand of Waterloo was a very determined man, he probably won’t give up very easily. We only needed to continue waiting. When the Country Weapon appears, we’ll attack then. Otherwise, it’d be suicide if the forty of us tried taking on them.
Logically speaking, the moment the country weapon drops, there shouldn’t be an easy way to take it back to the city or log off, otherwise there’s no chance to fight for it. The system won’t let such a great opportunity pass. And so, we can only gamble on that moment. Gamble that the [Dawn] players will try to protect the Country Weapon and leave. The moment that they leave is the moment that we strike!
Thankfully, there was still a distance between Mirror Lake and Moon City. In the thirty minutes it takes for them to get back, there won’t be too many people who come here. That will be our moment.
Around twenty minutes later, a bell rang out in the sky——
“Ding!”
