Chapter 658: Intense Collision (1/2)
I lifted my head and saw countless archers on top of the city walls. Bending over the wall as much as they could, they took aim and started to fire their arrows at the group of engineers at the base of the walls.
”Beiming, kill all their archers!” I yelled
”Mn!”
Under the protection of Gui Guzi, Beiming Xue rushed forward while avoiding as many flying arrows as she could. Her Dragonbone String glowed brilliantly as she unleashed Spiraling Arrow Blade continuously at the city walls. Her arrows exploded as they came into contact with the city walls, throwing more than a dozen enemy archers off the top of the walls. Bow God increased her Attack by 150% making her attacks extremely domineering and powerful.
However, the enemy numbers continued to increase and it was just impossible for Beiming Xue to deal with all of them by herself. Blazing Hot Lips’ engineers were frantically trying to set up their cloud ladders while having to avoid the life-threatening volleys of Galaxy Storms and Spiraling Arrow Blades.
Volleys of arrows continued to wreak havoc as they rained down on us. I glanced up at the city walls and noticed that there were many high-leveled and powerful archers. It looked like Bloodthirsty Battle Monarch had spared no efforts by sending all of his elite long ranged players to ‘welcome’ us.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three consecutive explosions of Spiraling Arrow Blade one-shot an engineer to my right. Those playing the production classes were well aware of their fighting strength. Therefore, they focused on stacking HP so that they wouldn’t die easily. Unfortunately, they were still unable to withstand the powerful attacks of the enemy’s combat players.
Enraged by the engineer’s death, I lifted my head and the Cyan Netherworld Sword started to glow radiantly in my hand. I made a sweeping motion and directed a crescent of sword energy toward the city wall. The indigo sword energy transformed into a spiraling tornado, blasting its way through the entire city wall region. Blood covered the city walls as the tornado continued to wreak havoc on countless archers and mages.
The tornado was so powerful that many low-level players were killed instantly. Only a few high-level mages managed to narrowly escape death due to the durability of their Magic Shields.
……
”What the fuck! Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand, you’re a dead man!”
Clang!
Rose Thorn pulled her sword from its sheath and growled, ”Players of the Rose of the Holy Domain, heed to my command. Defend the city at all cost and don’t let a single enemy climb up the city walls! Archers, use your Devil Piercing Arrows and Shock Arrows! Mages, focus your attacks on Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand, From Water, Legendary Brave, and all the Famous Generals. Killing one will double your pay and the rest are just easy targets once we’ve killed all their Famous Generals!”
He Yi gripped her Blade of the Earthen Soul as it glistened brilliantly in the sunlight and tilted her head upward. Smiling at the three guild leaders, she asked, ”Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls has a total of eleven Famous Generals. Rose Thorn, do you think you can kill us all?”
Rose Thorn gave her an icy glare and replied, ”We will try even if it kills us!”
He Yi’s expression instantly turned stone cold and she pointed her sword toward the city. In an icy tone, she shouted, ”Prepare to raid the city! We’ll give them what they want!”
……
One by one, the cloud ladders positioned right next to the city walls started to extend upward. If the engineers managed to set them up successfully within sixty seconds, the mechanisms of the cloud ladders would run automatically till it extends to the top of the wall.
I laughed and shouted, ”Everyone, dismount and attack!”
With a neigh, the Armored Ice Qilin Horse was sent back to my mount space. Holding the sword with my teeth, I started to climb up the nearest cloud ladder. He Yi, Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng, and the others followed suit and started to climb up their own ladders as well.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
I continued to ignore the fireballs that came crashing down on me and concentrated on swiftly climbing up the cloud ladder. Once I enter the city, I’ll be able to fight on solid ground.
”Ahhhhhh…”
Hearing a pitiful scream, I glanced to my left and saw High Fighting Spirits sprawled on the ground. A dozen arrows stuck out of his chest as a stun CC icon floated above his head. He was successfully stunned and was blasted off the cloud ladder. God damn, this idiot had actually lost half of his health.
High Fighting Spirits groaned as he recovered from the stun and got back on his feet. He resentfully wiped the dirt off his nose and continued to climb up the ladder.
Toward my right, both Knight Generals, Heaven’s Rain and Diamond Dust, were halfway up the walls. However, like High Fighting Spirits, they were successfully stunned by Shock Arrow and blasted off by balls of raging fire instantly. Fortunately, both had activated Knight General which increased their Defense substantially, allowing them to escape death.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
One by one, our guild members continued to fall off the cloud ladders. Hall of Immortality, Rose of the Holy Domain, and Throne Seeker had sent their main force of elite players to fend us off. Not only were their players extremely powerful, they had the high ground as well. Even though our players were very powerful, they still could not withstand the barrage of attacks and were sent hurling off the cloud ladders.
My jaw dropped when I saw that Li Chengfeng was the first to reach the top of the cloud ladder. His sword trembled slightly as he swung it and executed Reverse Scale Slash which exploded amidst a group of enemy archers. But before Li Chengfeng could even take a single step onto the city walls, six high-level murderous-looking warriors suddenly sprang forward. Swirls of spiraling flames started to form on the tip of each of their swords as they simultaneously used Barrier Break!
Li Chengfeng was completely cornered and even god would not be able to save him now. Even though he had great Defense, he was not foolish enough to tank six Barrier Breaks at the same time. His eyes widened in shock and muttered, ”What the hell, is this even allowed…”
Li Chengfeng frowned, clearly annoyed by the ‘special’ attention he was getting. Facing six Barrier Breaks simultaneously, his only option was to fall off the cloud ladder to avoid being hit.
The Dragon Warrior wasn’t one to go down without a fight. Right before falling off, he activated Encourage VII, increasing his Attack by 80%. He immediately turned slightly to his right and made a sweeping motion with his sword, unleashing Barrier Break + Dragonbone Flurry.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
16902!
11929!
10223!
11248!
Four consecutive attacks one-shot that warrior as he collapsed to the ground. Unfortunately for him, he even dropped his sword. It was a pity that Li Chengfeng had only managed to glance at the city for a split second before he was violently hurled off the city walls.
”Fighting Spirits, catch me!” Li Chengfeng shouted.
