Chapter 1332: Air raid failed
Sixth day of the country war, 37 minutes to the end of the third country war.
I had spent 60 hours online and although I was sleepy, but my Blazing Sun Body was stronger than others and I could hold on. Like what the old man said, you won’t know your own limit, only by trying can you break through.
……
Batches of chinese players fell to the Iron Skull City Demon Crystal Cannons, and the stacks of player corpses were already a few meters deep. The system desp.a.w.ned them but more and more corpses sp.a.w.ned. After 10 hours, the Americans showed signs of tiredness. Their cannons continued to fire and only a small number of cannonb.a.l.l.s remained.
On the main battlefield outside the east gate, Q-Sword, Ye Lai, Mu Xuan, Drunken Spear, Call me Master, Misty Clouds etc were all here and were waiting for me to give the orders. The time was getting more and more right.
“Xiao Yao what are you afraid of?” Q-Sword held his Seven Kill Sword and was confused, “I feel like you are afraid of something. You see that the moment they come out, we will wipe them out, we have lost 10 million players here and their losses are no less than us. Many of them gave up to come back online, now it is great if they even have 10 million there. It is 2 am there so they won’t have more than 8 million online.”
I nodded and thought about it, “Did you notice that Sky Rose hasn’t used their NPC army and the 300 thousand Gryphon team. Those 300 thousand should be online. They are waiting for us and then they will fight back.”
“Then it is not a plan for us to wait here.” "Why not abandon Iron Skull City and attack Swirling Abyss City?" Ye Lai suggested.
“No!” I shook my head, “They are our top enemy. 2 swirling abyss cities can’t compare to one of them, we have to take them down today!”
“Are we going to attack?” Lin Wan Er smiled and asked.
“En.”
I raised my hand and looked towards the Royal Army majors, “Push the G.o.d Dragon Cannons and Dragon Crystal Cannons to the front. Focus fire on the east gate, I want you to level it to flat land within half an hour!”
Han Yuan said excitedly, “Yes General!”
I looked towards the guild leaders and said, “We only have 25 G.o.d Draogn Cannons so we have to protect them. Sky Rose might send the Gryphons to attack so we must send our flying players over to surround Royal Army and protect the cannons.”
Everyone nodded and gave orders. Numerous flying players gathered over. The quality didn’t matter and we had close to 100 thousand. It wasn’t enough to fight against their 300 thousand but we should be able to capture their attention. Moreover we had hundreds of G.o.d grade players that could compare to 50 thousand of them.
……
Dozens of minutes later, 25 G.o.d Dragon Cannons spread out. Ahead was the dense Dragon Crystal Cannon formation. There were over 500 cannons all aimed at the east gate. Han Yuan raised his right hand and then waved it down, “Fire!”
“Peng peng peng…”
The entire ground was shaking as numerous flames and shockwaves swept the walls. A precise G.o.d Dragon Cannon cannonball landed on the wall and hit Sky Rose and Seven Feather. They were down to half health and they quickly retreated.
There was no safe place on the wall. Royal Army’s cannoneers were well trained and they were really accurate. Around 30% of the cannonb.a.l.l.s landed on the walls. The Americans had never seen such a thing before, either they had to stay there and get blown up or they had to retreat.
In just three minutes, cracks appeared on the wall. The White Iron was melted by the heat of the G.o.d Dragon Cannons and a red patch flowed down the wall. The bricks were blown apart by the strength of the cannon and this wall wouldn’t take long to collapse.
……
“Tsk tsk… This G.o.d Dragon Cannon is so strong!” Ye Lai couldn’t help but curse.
Mu Xuan smiled, “Indeed.”
Drunken Spear asked, “Xiao Yao, should we take this chance to attack, we should be able to break through?”
I shook my head, “No rush, wait for it to crush the first wall.”
“En.”
……
At that moment, black figures appeared on the walls and formed a black crowd that flew over. It was the Gryphon Army, finally Sky Rose sent out their trump card! This was Iron Skull City’s specialty. They had the world’s most elite airforce that was pouncing towards us.
I flew into the sky and said loudly, “Prepare to defend!”
I pointed b.u.t.terfly forwards and ordered, “Jing Yin, aim the frontline cannons at the sky and shoot them. Ling Luo, Dark Moon Elves prepare to shoot the Gryphon Cavalries!”
This was our Royal Army camp, if Sky Rose wanted to destroy the 25 G.o.d Dragon cannons here, she had to pay a heavy price.
In the sky, ahead of the Gryphon Army were a few people in G.o.d Form. So Sky Rose, Seven Feather and Rhythm in the Rain were all here.
Behind me, the G.o.d grade Chinese players all flew into the sky. Our Draognriders, War Hawk Knights, Roc Cavalries etc. 100 thousand people guarded above the cannons. If they dared to come, we dared to fight them.
“Peng peng!”
On the ground, the Dragon Crystal Cannons fired 100 times and left shockwaves in the skies. The cannonb.a.l.l.s exploded among the troops and the effect could be imagined.
Sky Rose didn’t expect that I would use the heavy cannons to shoot like that and ordered them to layer themselves to reduce losses. After all, the 300 thousand of them was a large number and they flew quickly too. The Dragon Crystal Cannons only killed a portion of them. Very quickly, they were able to arrive and attack us from above.
Lin Wan Er rode Little White and looked around anxiously, “Form a protection net, don’t let them pa.s.s through, quickly!”
I retreated back beside Dong Cheng Yue, Li Mu and her. The chinese players did it too. The five star red flag connected into an ocean and formed a net that covered the cannon formation.
They were here!
Sky Rose avoided my position and attacked from another direction. The Mid Grade G.o.d divinity was really strong and instantly sliced through the crowd. The other positions weren’t so smooth. The chinese players fought back and knocked them aside but they were still unable to stop their charge.
Gryphons pa.s.sed through. We were at a huge disadvantage and our net was riddled in holes. We ended up giving up on it and charging forward. The players were in a chaotic mess. Ling Luo, Dancing Forest etc archers moved around and killed them one by one. Players started to fall from the above like rain.
On the ground, Han Yuan held his blade and blocked in front of the G.o.d Dragon Cannons. Seeing Sky Rose come, this general charged and waved his blade. He was actually knocked back by Sky Rose. He was instantly enraged and flicked his blade upwards to slice 200 thousand health away from Sky Rose. He controlled th Lightning Dragon to pounce forwards before he sliced once more.
Sky Rose was definitely not willing to tangle with this four star general so he used Blade Rush to move aside, and then he used Double Hit on a G.o.d Draogn Cannon, causing its durability to drop by 27%.
Royal Army Major Jing Yin couldn’t take all this and flew over to battle Sky Rose. At the same time, the Royal Army cavalries in charge of defending charged at Sky Rose. If she wanted to destroy the cannon, she had to suffer from the attacks of multiple Saint Hall Cavalries.
……
I descended and was 20 meters above the G.o.d Dragon Cannons. I placed a Seven Star Formation, anyone that wanted to come down would get attacked by b.u.t.terfly. None of them could block my Supreme Country Weapon.
The chaotic battle raged on, but we remained in our formation.The ranged players started to help, and arrows flew upwards to shoot the Gryphons down. Q-Sword, Lin Wan Er, Ye Lai, Li Mu, w.a.n.g Jian, Mocha etc used G.o.d Form to fight. After 20 minutes, their air raid had failed.
A bell sounded, Seven Feather, Can Meng, Encounter, Green Bristle etc G.o.d Grade players had died--- Our losses weren’t low either, w.a.n.g Jian, Bai Qi, Song Han, Meng Yao also died once. Heo Mound, Judgement, Enemies by the Gate etc top players also had deaths.
But the outcome was still good for us.
Sky Rose led 20 thousand people and tried to retreat. The rest ended up as corpses laying on our formation. Moreover, they dropped a bunch of equipment that the defending players enjoyed. In the end, they only destroyed 5 G.o.d Dragon Cannons and 40+ Dragon Crystal Cannons.
……
“Coninue to attack the east gate.” I picked up a 14% lifesteal three star G.o.d ring and threw it into my bag. I ordered Han Yuan and Jing Yin to continue to attack.
