The stars sparkled ever so brightly in the night sky.
t.i.tan G.o.d carried a broadsword in one hand and rode on a Fire Rhinoceros that was entirely covered in armor. He raised his head and looked into the distance, his eyes burning with fury. "Hmph, it"s that Chinese player! I will never forget him! Never!"
An archer beside him said, "Guild leader, that player is now a Divine General. He is called Legendary Brave, China"s one and only Dragon Warrior. He is extremely powerful! We suffered great losses because of him the last time. His Defense is ridiculously high when he activates Battle Soul Possession. Even Barrier Break isn"t able to penetrate his defenses!"
t.i.tan G.o.d"s gaze grew icy as that archer continued talking, "Also, that person beside Legendary Brave. That player riding on the Ice Qilin Horse is Broken Halberd Sinks into Sand. He"s the one who guarded the Life Barrier for several hours. Vienna"s Sorrow, The Blade of Kings and Grief of the Dark all suffered greatly because of his Divine General Skill, Ancient Seal. Also…"
t.i.tan G.o.d clenched his palms into tight fists and interrupted him, "Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower is right ahead! We would meet them sooner or later anyway. Hehe, why not settle all our grievances now!"
The archer asked, "Guild leader, shall we wait for the other guilds? Vienna"s guild, Heroes Alliance, will be able to reach Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower in just half an hour!"
t.i.tan G.o.d shook his head and said, "We shan"t wait for them. Vienna"s Sorrow is proclaimed to to be the number one player of Hero City, t.i.tan City and Seven Star City. Hmph, why should I give all the good things to him? We"ll eliminate Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls today and kill two Chinese Divine Generals! t.i.tan will become number one on USA"s Guild Ranking!"
"Understood!"
"Gather all our Fire Rhinoceros Cavalrymen immediately! Prepare for battle! Bards, buff us! Mages, archers, priests, advance together! Kill that bunch of Chinese players before they can get anywhere near the Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower! Hmph, that giant tower belongs to the Northern Alliance!"
"Yessir!"
……
In a flash, a large group of Fire Rhinoceroses started to appear. t.i.tan G.o.d was going all out to kill us. At least 15000 Fire Rhinoceroses had gathered on the overgrown plains surrounding the Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower. We could hear the sounds of people and horses joining together to form a cacophony of noises. Their swords glowed under the moonlight as they unsheathed them and prepared for battle.
Clang!
t.i.tan G.o.d pulled his blade out and shouted, "The time for vengeance is here! t.i.tan City comrades, let us show how powerful we are! Attack!"
The ground rumbled under the horse hooves and the Fire Rhinoceros Cavalry started to activate Charge! An earthshaking battle was about to take place!
……
Swhoos.h.!.+
Flames hovered over my Cyan Netherworld Sword as I pointed it in front of me. Laughing, I said, "Fortune favors the bold! Brandish your swords, my brothers and sisters!"
Instantly, 2000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen and 1500 Cyan Tiger Cavalrymen unsheathed their swords, the look in their eyes resolute. Another huge battle was about to take place around Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower.
"Attack!"
I urged my horse forward and the Phantom Wolf King followed closely behind me. I waved my hand and summoned my apparition before the two of us charged to the front. The rumbling of horse hooves could be heard behind us as both calvaries started to charge forward. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls riders were renowned and it was time for us to show off our prowess!
When enemies meet on a narrow road, only the brave will emerge the victor. The players of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls who had experienced the Nation Wars first hand understood this full well. The gazes of He Yi, Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Chaos Moon, Heaven"s Rain, Diamond Dust, Du Thirteen and the rest grew stern as they brandished their swords. They urged their horses forward and charged toward the enemy"s giant army without a thread of fear in their eyes!
Swhoos.h.!.+
Three green dragons burst out and transformed into three swords that circled around me protectively. I entered the Great Earth Transformation state swiftly but had yet to clash with the enemy. Stretching out a hand, three golden characters flew into the air and illuminated the night sky with their glow. In the next instant, they crashed into the ground, imprinting the battlefield with Ancient Seals, flattening the enemies underneath.
Boom, boom, boom!
Ancient Seal was extremely powerful. More than half of the Fire Rhinoceroses within the three 20x20 yard areas were one-shot instantly. Even those who managed to escape death were only left with less than 20% of their HP!
"Charge!"
Cyan blades circled around Li Chengfeng protectively as an image of a crimson G.o.d of war rested upon him. All of his stats had been greatly buffed instantly. His sword glowed as he unleashed three consecutive attacks of Dragonbone Flurry and followed up immediately with Reverse Scale Flash. With just two skills, Li Chengfeng managed to tear through the enemy"s battle formation and killed nearly forty Fire Rhinoceros Cavalrymen. Divine Generals" attacks were simply too OP!
Awoo!
A howl rang out as High Fighting Spirits charged into a group of enemies and swung his warhammer. When he was completely surrounded by his enemies, he swiftly unleashed his Xiezhi Howl. A large group of t.i.tan players were instantly stupefied as nearly a hundred players were torn to pieces by that b.e.a.s.t.i.a.l hurricane!
……
"G.o.ddammit!"
t.i.tan G.o.d was outraged as he charged forward and brandished his broadsword. His armor buzzed and glowed as electricity coursed through. He raised his sword and unleashed a bolt of lightning into a group of players about fifteen yards away. The group of Dragonlight Cavalrymen were hit by that AoE skill and strings of damage numbers popped up above their heads.
38728!
41092!
41288!
G.o.d d.a.m.n! Such powerful attacks!
t.i.tan G.o.d pounced forward without giving the Dragonlight Cavalrymen the chance to retaliate. Lightning enveloped his sword as he shouted angrily, "Lightning Fury! Die you idiots!"
Boom, boom, boom!
Three consecutive bolts of lightning landed on the two frontmost Dragonlight Cavalrymen, killing them instantly!
……
"Omigos.h.!.+ This is too outrageous!"
He Yi tugged on the reins of her horse and activated Charge. A loud bang rang out as she rammed into t.i.tan G.o.d, forcing him to take two steps backward from the impact. While t.i.tan G.o.d was still unsteady, a spiral of blazing energy formed on the tip of He Yi"s sword. She urged her horse forward and thrust her sword at t.i.tan G.o.d with lightning speed.
t.i.tan G.o.d"s reaction took everyone by surprise. He brandished his sword and parried He Yi"s Barrier Break accurately!
"MISS!"
MISS!
Everyone around them gasped in shock! t.i.tan G.o.d parried He Yi"s attack perfectly!
However, He Yi"s moves were extremely shocking as well. Her reaction speed was unusually quick! In that split second when her attack was parried, the beautiful guild leader swung the s.h.i.+eld in her left hand. The heavy s.h.i.+eld crushed t.i.tan G.o.d"s shoulder, dealing a damage of 7663. Without waiting for him to catch his breath, He Yi thrust her Blade of the Earthen Soul at his chest swiftly. Flames erupted from the sword as He Yi unleashed her Purgatory of Ice and Magma!
"G.o.ddammit!"
t.i.tan G.o.d had not expected for this beautiful rider to be so OP. He quickly raised his arm and curled himself into a defensive position!
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Explosions from He Yi"s five consecutive attacks rang out. However, t.i.tan G.o.d managed to curl into a defensive position thus limiting the amount of damage he took. Even so, he lost almost 40000 HP from He Yi"s attack.
"Dammit!"
t.i.tan G.o.d urged his Fire Rhinoceros forward and managed to take his revenge by landing a heavy blow on He Yi"s back with his elbow. Without giving her a chance to recover from that blow, he brandished his broadsword and unleashed Barrier Break + Lightning Fury!
Bang!
32771!
28717!
30988!
28721!
The string of damage numbers that popped up were frighteningly high! Fortunately, the one receiving the damage was He Yi. Otherwise, the hapless player would have already died. t.i.tan G.o.d had dealt critical hits and yet, He Yi"s health had only dropped by 60%. His attacks were still not powerful enough to endanger her life.
……
"Protect the guild leader! t.i.tan G.o.d is too powerful!"
Diamond Dust flew forward and unleashed Barrier Break at t.i.tan G.o.d, successfully driving him backward. The battlefield was too crowded and I couldn"t simply dash forward to help them. I could only watch the duel from afar. Meanwhile, Li Chengfeng was currently busy killing another group of players and could not help He Yi either. The t.i.tan guild was truly powerful, even more powerful than guilds like Hegemon Palace. They were a force not to be trifled with.
Boom, boom, boom!
The Dragonlight Cavalry"s Hoof Trample dealt great damage to the Fire Rhinoceros Cavalry. During the Nation Wars, the Fire Rhinoceros Cavalry had been engaged by the Cyan Tiger Cavalry and not the Dragonlight Cavalry. They weren"t expecting the Dragonlight Cavalry to be so OP.
Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls charged back and forth through the battlefield and in less than ten minutes, we had already gained the upper hand.
At this moment, battle cries filled the air behind us. It was the Snowy Cathaya who had come to help us! Purple Marquis charged out of the forest like a purple flame, burning a large group of archers, mages and priests. Beauty Lin unleashed Ice Flame Slash as it exploded among a group of enemies. The cyan lotus flower floating beside her glowed with peerless beauty and yet was filled with killing power. The male players of G.o.d Realm felt an ambivalence about her. Feelings of love and hatred clashed with each other in their hearts.
……
"Yes! Snowy Cathaya is here!"
Li Chengfeng laughed loudly and shouted, "The Monarch Descends and Blazing Hot Lips have already charged through Soul Suppressing Ruins" defenses. They will arrive very soon!"
Gui Guzi frowned deeply and said, "We"ve got trouble! Vienna"s Sorrow and The Blade of Kings are quickly making their way over with their army to aid t.i.tan! Also, a large bunch of Koreans and Vietnamese have appeared in the northeast. Our situation doesn"t look very optimistic!"
Li Chengfeng said in a low voice, "G.o.ddammit, what do we do now…"
I raised my sword and shouted, "Chengfeng, follow me! We"ll work together and eliminate t.i.tan G.o.d! Let"s slaughter this guild before their reinforcements arrive!"
"Alright!"
……
We activated our Great Earth Transformation and charged back, killing anyone who stood in our way. Not too far from us, Heaven"s Rain, He Yi and Diamond Dust were fighting against t.i.tan G.o.d who had 70% of his health left. That a.s.shole"s HP regeneration skills are pretty powerful!
Swhoos.h.!.+
A cyan blade descended from heaven as I unleashed Dragon Slaying Slas.h.!.+
"What!?"
t.i.tan G.o.d remained calm and leaped backward to avoid my energy blade. Moving swiftly, he also dodged Heaven"s Rain and Diamond Dust"s attack. Locking his sights on He Yi, he urged his mount forward and ran in a double zigzag pattern. Appearing behind He Yi, he thrust his sword at her!
I quickly shouted, "Eve, activate Holy s.h.i.+eld!"
Knowing that she could not keep up with her opponent, she swiftly activated Holy s.h.i.+eld. Raising her s.h.i.+eld, she blocked t.i.tan G.o.d"s consecutive attacks without falling off her mount.
……
Li Chengfeng and I charged in from both sides. He Yi was being healed by priests and t.i.tan G.o.d knew full well that he would not be able to kill her. He had to retreat swiftly. Otherwise, he would be encircled and killed by Li Chengfeng and I.
"Come at me!"
t.i.tan G.o.d dashed at me suddenly, running in beautiful half arcs that intersect each other continuously. It was the helix maneuver!
Li Chengfeng stared in shock before turning to look at me and said, "Double helix maneuver?"
"Alright!"
I laughed and charged forward while brandis.h.i.+ng my sword. Li Chengfeng and I crossed paths in a practiced fas.h.i.+on and moved even faster than t.i.tan G.o.d. The double helix maneuver required two players to move in a beautiful S pattern and cross paths to form a spiraling helix. It looked like both players were weaving a strand of DNA together. They would deal a frightening amount of damage to the target player every time they crossed paths with each other. As long as both players coordinated perfectly with each other, the double helix maneuver was absolutely the best tactic in a 2v2 duel!
