Chapter 929 - Vanguard Skull (1/2)
Vanguard Skeleton Soldiers and level 161 Grade 4 Hybrid Demons. Due to the relatively higher levels, the upper limit for their attacks was 21 thousand. Moreover, out of their three skills, there was one passive one known as the Bone Breaking Technique which had 30% defense penetration. This also meant that the defenses of most players wouldn't be enough to hold out against these attacks.
”Prepare the shield formation to defend!”
I stood on the frontlines and waited solemnly. I pointed my Zhen Yue Blade forward and the God Dragon Horse charged forwards. The sword light landed among the monsters and instantly the skeleton bodies shook. Many damage numbers exploded out. Those soldiers left with their skeletons only could actually bleed. Who knew where that blood was coming from...
”81,224!”
”84,828!”
”83,092!”
……
Li Mu, Wang Jian, and the rest used their [Halberd Whirlwind], [Whirlwind Sword Break], and [Covering Sword Slash] skills in the crowd. However, the skeleton soldiers were like ants who stormed over. They waved their blades and charged at the crowd. In the next moment, they clashed with the [Zhan Long] and Royal Army frontlines. Li Meng Yao, Yue Yao Yan, and One Second Hero all used their shields to block. Under the Bone Breaking Technique, a bunch of damage numbers shocked everyone...
”27,171!”
”51,228!”
”26,153!”
……
Under the attacks of the skeleton soldiers, even Meng Yao was forced a few steps back. Their impact was too strong. Luckily, the frontline players had 100 thousand health and under the healing, they were able to withstand it. However, the guilds beside us weren't so lucky. From afar, the few mid-tier guilds were starting to fall apart. Many people were instantly killed, especially some average swordsmen and berserkers who only had 50 to 80 thousand health. After two hits, they were basically dead.
”Everyone be careful, pay attention to your health!”
Lin Wan Er held her dagger and danced in front of everyone. As an assassin, her defenses were like that of a heavy armor user. Moreover, she had 17% lifesteal and was strong enough to go head on against the monsters. Her dagger had the [Unyielding Spirit] effect and after stabbing their bodies, she said, ”Those with less than thirty percent health, back off and heal. Don't force it. Their attacks won't end in an hour, so leave to gain more health points!”
Everyone nodded their heads as they listened to the orders. The archers, mages, and musketeers shot altogether. A bunch of random spells pelted the skeleton soldiers. They all cried out but were still unable to break through the frontlines. They could only smash onto the shields and slash down. ”Keng!” More damage numbers flew out.
The [Zhan Long] frontline consisted of all the Fire Dragon Cavalry. The defense and attack power was enough, and they finally stabilized after a bunch of people died. Next, we would be massacring them to obtain experience.
”Shua!”
I used the [Icy Wings] effect, bringing the tiger to charge and kill among the crowd. Then I flew up into the air and looked towards the battlefield. Les led the cavalry forwards and the spearmen behind. The archers defended their original spot and slashed with the vanguard army in the core region. Both sides suffered losses. Luo Ding sent many troops to attack the middle army as it seemed like he knew the importance of taking down the leader and he wanted to breakthrough right away.
After he captured Lochlan, he would then have a full victory.
Lochlan was a sharp and humble ruler, a treasure that the Heavens gave to Tian Ling City. Luo Xun could only take over when Lochlan was in trouble. He was a schemer and was bad at fighting enemies. If that happens, Tian Ling City will only be swallowed bit by bit with no way to fight back.
”Warriors, kill. It is time for us to gain merits!”
