Chapter 205 We Have To Win The First Battle
“For the City of Dawn!” William shouted.
“For the City of Dawn!” Millions of people followed suit and loudly shouted.
Numerous thundering roars filled the sky.
In the city lord’s palace, on the third level, a crystal emitted brilliant light rays.
The white light illuminated hundreds of miles of the gra.s.s plain!
The dark gra.s.s plain covered by dark clouds became as bright as day.
The dark creatures who were at the foot of the cliff were forced to hide in the shadows
This was the City of Dawn.
It was the city of light located right in the middle of darkness.
It was a city that brought light and hope to people!
The illumination allowed the warriors in the city to figure out how many dark creatures were ama.s.sing underneath.
Their number reached hundreds of thousands. They were like a black tsunami that swept across the gra.s.s plain.
They took some time to get used to the white light, and then, the roaring creatures charged towards the steep cliff. They used their hands to scale the cliff walls.
Whether they were skeleton soldiers, zombies, or darkness soldiers, all of them used their sharp claws to climb up.
These dark creatures formed the first wave of the Darkness invasion.
They would not be merciful.
They wanted to kill all living things and devour their fresh blood and souls.
This was the Darkness invasion.
In the next second—the professionals, the chosen ones, and the commoners-all saw William, who was floating in mid-air, dive into the army of darkness.
Boom!
Ten rays of blinding lightning bolted down from the dark clouds and accompanied William’s descent.
When he landed on the ground, shock waves emanated from his location, and thunder
roared.
Blue lightning bolts struck down all dark creatures within a hundred-meter radius, and electric arcs shot out in all directions.
Thousands of dark creatures had been mowed down like harvested wheat.
William stood at the base of the cliff and unsheathed his long sword. He slashed it, and several hundred of the dark creatures were severed into halves.
A five-meter tall zombie charged at William, but he dodged at the speed of lightning!
Pfff.
A bleeding scar appeared on the huge zombie while electric arcs circled around his body.
The zombie separated into halves while the zombie’s legs were left standing on the ground.
William did not stand guard at the base of the cliff. He charged forward like a bolt of lightning and dashed towards the boundless dark army.
He was like a ray of light that tore through the dark army, leaving behind trails of gushing blood.
All the dark creatures that blocked his path were exterminated.
“We have to win the first battle.”
William, who was deep inside the dark army, shouted towards the City of Dawn.
A blinding white light originated from the City of Dawn and pounded on the ground.
Meanwhile, hundreds of shimmering 3-meter long swords appeared, and they followed a figure that charged into the dark army.
Boom!
Battle energy exploded everywhere, and the shock waves cleared out small pockets of dark creatures.
This figure was Lautner, who had attained the Advanced.
“We have to win the first battle!” Lautner loudly screamed as he readied his bow. He fired a gigantic light arrow that was a few hundred meters long, and following it, penetrated deep into the dark army.
“Don’t forget about me.” Burned Cinder loudly laughed as he transformed into a large meteor and crashed onto the ground. The shock wave of the landing emanated out in all directions.
He stood up and spat out ferocious flames at a darkness soldier who was burnt to ash.
A Fire Dragon that was tens of meters long soared in the sky, and it breathed fire at the dark creatures.
“To be honest, I don’t like close-combat…” Legolas shrugged as he leaped over the city walls.
As he was landing on the ground, a violent gale swept through, and he transformed into a green tornado that advanced for a few hundred meters. All the dark creatures were sent flying when the tornado cut into the dark army.
“And…” Odom was feeling excited that it was his turn.
Albert grasped Odom’s arm and solemnly said, “Even though both Lord William and you belong to the Thunder element, he is far superior. You’re the deputy city lord, so you are in charge of protecting the city.”
Odom tightly grasped his Hammer of Thunder. Why was Lord William so much more powerful if they were of the same Thunder element? After a few seconds, he asked Albert, “What about you?”
“Though both Burned Cinder and I belong to the Fire element, I’m different as I can transform.” Albert loudly laughed, and Dragon scales covered his entire body that expanded rapidly.
Albert was like a Fire Dragon as he charged towards the ground. He did not use any skills.
He used his body to create a trail of burning corpses in the dark army.
None of the dark creatures dared to stop these five powerful warriors.
The dark creatures continued to scale the cliff wall with a single thought. And that was to eat all the living things alive.
Odom observed the situation and hollered, “Attack!”
“Attack!” The legions raised their weapons in unison.
“Attack!” The professionals in the city chanted.
The 500 catapults in the city let loose the flaming rocks that fell upon the faraway dark creatures like a meteor shower.
Meanwhile, the rangers in the city and those who were hidden behind the arrow slots in the tunnels fired their arrows.
Dense sheets of battle energy arrows rained death upon the dark creatures!
The arrows were like waves of battle energy, and they kept coming at these creatures…
When the arrows penetrated the dark creatures, countless dark creatures collapsed to the ground.
But the relentless dark creatures stepped over the corpses and continued their advance.
Besides protecting the City of Dawn, the edges of the cliff outside the city were also guarded.
ess wa
Even the faraway Light Fortress was also protected…
The edges of the cliff were guarded by the Orcs and the Dragon’s clansmen.
The Orcs were also considered dark creatures as they joined the dark army in the last era. But now they were considered part of the continent.
In the previous era, the Orcs did not gain any benefits when they were the vanguards of the dark army. Instead, they had suffered ma.s.sive casualties. Hence, the pale Orcs had learned their lesson!
Besides, the dark army did not contact any of the Orcs.
Altaic was a proud pale Orc. He would not yield to anyone!
He would lead the Orcs to fight against the dark creatures that swallowed everything in their paths.
It was a war that engulfed all races on the continent.
Perhaps the Darkness invasion only occurred at the boundary of the nine continents.
To the races who were living at the boundary of the continents, it was a war that required them to unify in order to survive.
The strategic location that the dark army sought after was the region between the City of Dawn and Black Lava Dukedom.
A black-robed warlock looked to the north as he coldly said, “Do you want me to go to Black Lava Dukedom while you go to the City of Dawn?”
A man whose face was half-rotten and revealed disgusting skull bones smiled. “Yes.”
“I wish you luck!”
The man with the rotten face was not bothered by Makhu Redd’s sarcasm as he looked to the south, where a single white light flashed in the dark.
The man with the rotten face muttered, “William, did you hear me?
Are you fearful?”
Goethe Nasis looked at the tens of thousands of dark creatures under his command. He smiled and wickedly laughed…
Goethe clapped his hands and danced as his laugh became louder. One could even hear sobbing in his laughs…
He gradually stopped and extended his devil’s wings.
Tens of thousands of dark creatures rushed towards the south like a metal tsunami.
“Have you experienced my despair?” “Now, it’s only the beginning.”
