Chapter 507: Breaking the Walls (2/2)
Chaos Moon smiled and lifted her sword horizontally in front of her. The next moment, a bloody cone of energy appeared at the tip of her sword!
9043!
The Barrier Break pierced the mage’s defenses and left a bloody hole at the center of his chest. Eyes widening, the mage couldn’t seem to believe that his Magic Shield had failed him at his time of need. It was only during his final moments did he recall that Barrier Break largely ignored Magic Shields.
The mage’s death shattered Flower Room’s morale. What else could the rest of them do if even an elite mage with an unusually strong Magic Shield was one-shot by the enemy’s fighters? That was even ignoring the fact that their frontline had crumbled some time ago. The fight had turned into a one-sided slaughter, and they were the prey.
Not far away, Li Chengfeng was zigzagging between three players and catching one of them with a Barrier Break. The archer he killed was one of Flower Room’s best experts, Night Sorrow. The next moment, he used a Dragonbone Flurry and killed Spring Mud as well. Finally, he ran rings around Moon Shadow to block their escape and killed him with another Barrier Break and Cyan Dragon Horn after the 6-second cooldown was finished. Forget winning, Ego workshop couldn’t even put up a respectable fight against the dragon warrior.
If Flower Room’s morale wasn’t destroyed before, it was now. They stared at the three dead bodies of Ego workshop in despair and shouted madly, ”It’s all over, Spring Mud, Night Sorrow and Moon Shadow are all dead! We’re going to lose…”
……
In less than ten minutes, every Flower Room and Mad Dragon player outside the city was routed. While Murong Mingyue was ordering people around and sweeping the battlefield for loot, He Yi, Xu Yang, Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng, and me were attacking the city gate.
Gui Guzi asked, ”Boss, this iron gate has high Defense and durability. I don’t think we’re breaching it anytime soon. What should we do?”
I replied, ”Ignore it. Even if we manage to breach it, we’ll still be surrounded and attacked from every direction. Listen, everyone! The walls of this elven castle are extremely fragile, so break down the walls instead! Once we push down the walls, we’ll be able to trample this city beneath our feet!”
On an archer tower, Dominating Archer God was stunned by my command. A second later, he hastily shouted to Dominating Heaven Blade inside the city, ”Boss, they’ve decided to attack our walls instead of the gates! What do we do!”
Standing in the middle of a group of players, Dominating Heaven Blade shouted angrily, ”The arrogance! Forget the gates and guard the walls instead! This is a Rank 1 territory, and the walls are too weak to withstand a siege. I want everyone to dish out every bit of firepower they have! Remember, we are inside the city, so we are the ones who have the vision and range advantage! Let’s blast the bastards from Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls to hell and back!”
Nighttime arrived, and the environment quickly became shrouded in darkness. Then, countless fireballs, wind blades, icicles, and arrows flew out of the city and rained down on us. Although the territory was small, our enemies had found a way to squeeze hundreds of thousands of players inside it. Moreover, they were the elites of Warsky Alliance, Gods of Destruction, and Hegemon Palace, so their firepower couldn’t be underestimated one bit.
”Chengfeng, Xu Yang, come break the walls with me! High Fighting Spirits, you’re coming with me as well! I want you to use your Stamp and lower the wall’s Defense! This is your main task for now, understand?”
”Yessir!”
High Fighting Spirits happily charged the city walls with a bunch of fighters and used Xiezhi Howl, the skill instantly vaporizing a huge chunk of durability from the wooden fences. Stamp lowers the target’s Defense and Magic Resist by 20%, and with his current Tactics he could lower the wooden fences’ Defense by 50%. In fact, the higher the Defense of a city wall, the better the effects of his skill were. Long story short, High Fighting Spirits would be responsible for breaking down the gates and walls in all future siege battles. He would be our head demolisher, so to speak.
Beiming Xue activated Range and shouted, ”Use Far Shot to shoot into the city!”
Twang twang twang…
Our archer party loosed a volley of arrows into the city. Although the hit rate and attack power of the attack was greatly reduced, the point was to suppress the enemy’s firepower and enabled the rest of us to carry out our tasks.
I stood as close to the walls as possible before tossing two Ice Cyclone Domains into the city. Then, I tossed out my Heaven-stealing Sword and enjoyed the sight of Sword Boomerang annihilating an entire row of archers. They had no idea how the sword magically appeared among them.
Thud!
I caught the hilt of the Heaven-stealing Sword firmly before breaking into a grin. Next, I raised my hand and launched a Dragon Slaying Slash at a mage who forgot to activate his Magic Shield.
