Chapter 336 – Nearing the City Lord Manor (1/2)
The main road running through Hero City was no more than 30 meters wide, and Chaotic Confinement covered one-third of this. In the radius of ten meters of chaotic elements, not only was magic banned, but all movement was also slowed.
Puff! Blood splattered all over as the players of the All-Knowing Sect easily bypassed the opponents’ armor and sent weapons into their bodies.
“Violent Ox King, go!” Fatty pointed his finger.
Even though it was now a mount, the power of the level 80 high-rank Yao former boss hadn’t decreased one bit. Upon Fatty’s order, the ox let out a battle cry and floated up with four hooves on fire, flying to the very front of the team.
“Mooo!” With an ear-splitting moo, the ground in front ruptured, lava spurted out and instantly screwed over many Demon soldiers.
Seeing its skill was a success, the Violent Ox King wiggled proudly. Then, its body enlarged to over a hundred meters tall before two long, thick fiery flames blew out from its nostrils. With a slightly lowered head that bared a pair of sharp horns, the ox charged forward with sheer brute force.
BOOOM! The Demon soldiers were flung left and right wherever the Violent Ox King rushed past. Ordinary Demon soldiers had no use in slowing down the mount at all. They were either kicked rolling or trampled to paste.
“Go go! To the City Lord Manor!” Bai Xiaosheng shouted.
“Guild Master, they’re coming in! Their target is also the City Lord Manor,” a voice was transmitted into Bai Xiaosheng ears and at the same time clearly heard by the surrounding players. After paying a heavy price, the nearly 200 guilds had finally broken into the city.
“Don’t worry about them. Let’s speed up!” Despite saying this, Bai Xiaosheng still revealed a hint of anxiety as he urged his people to hasten.
At the moment, they were less than a hundred meters away from the City Lord Manor, but each step was harder than the last. More and stronger Demon soldiers appeared. Right up ahead, they could see the space completely filled with Demon soldiers. There were players dying every second.
The Violent Ox King was forced to a stop after rushing over twenty meters as a group of Demon mages turned it into a huge stone statue. The hundred-meter tall statue actually looked quite spectacular with its ox head raised high to the sky.
Crackle! A lightning bolt struck the stone statue with a loud crash. The Violent Ox King burst into pieces, returning to Fatty’s pet bar.
“Damnable human.” From the City Lord Manor, black smoke rose into the sky and condensed into a huge black head. This deep-dark head only had a single horn a dozen meters long that occasionally crackled with electric sparks.
“Demon General Fierce Bull, one of the eight great Demon Generals under the Nine-Purgatory Zombie King. His true form is a Demonic Abyss Bull, lightning attribute, around Celestial tier. I only know this much,” Bai Xiaosheng quickly said what he knew about the owner of the black head.
“Is this some kind of joke? This Demon General can annihilate us with just a wave of its hand. It’s just unwinnable.” Hearing this, the face of the players, including those of the All-Knowing Sect, instantly changed.
“Don’t worry, as long as I can enter the City Lord Manor, I can borrow the power of the Tower of Heroes to suppress him,” Bai Xiaosheng hurriedly boosted morale. Then he added, “Of course, we still need to clear out the surrounding monsters so that the system will approve of us capturing the City Lord Manor.”
“It seems the most important thing right now is to get to the City Lord Manor.” Fatty took a deep breath and exchanged glances with the players around.
“Let’s get on with it!”
The killing grew extremely intense. The All-Knowing Sect players were surrounded in the middle of the road amid countless Demon soldiers as attacks hurtled over from all directions. White lights kept soaring into the sky. By now, the number of players had decreased by 30%.
“Haah! Garrison!” as DukeGarrison shouted, the stele in his hand quickly enlarged into a huge black mountain. The top of the black mountain looked ancient and mournful, marred with axe marks, while the front was as smooth as a mirror with a large silver word written in calligraphy: Garrison.
BOOM! The Garrison Stele fell straight down from the air. The ground trembled violently as the houses on both sides of the street were blown away by invisible hurricanes, and the Demon soldiers in the area of several dozen meters were swept away.
“Pfff!” After launching this skill, a pale DukeGarrison spat out a mouthful of blood. In the eyes of the other players, his health and mana plunged like crazy until they were only a sliver left.
Whoosh. The Garrison Stele shrank and flew back to his hand. Several white lights rained down and fully healed him. Staggering back a few steps, DukeGarrison shook his head with a pained smile as he checked his stats – all of them had decreased by half.
With DukeGarrison wiping out the Demon soldiers in the front, the players were able to quickly advance over a dozen meters before the Demon soldiers crowded them again.
“Righteous Blood Cleanses the Silver Spear!” Next was RighteousBloodCleansestheSilverSpear. In a white outfit, on a white horse and dancing silver spear, pear blossoms bloomed in the air in a bright scenery laced with murderous intent.
