Zhan Long

"What happened?"

I guided Mei'er forwards slowly and she seemed to sense that something was happening above. She roared and forced a bunch of Flying Dragon players to stop. Drunken Spear charged over and I asked, "What is happening to scare Flying Dragon like that?"

Drunken Spear said, "Level 9 Hybrid Demons, Godslayer Bone Crusher has appeared and there are also many Spirit Umbrella Bugs and Spirit Flower Bugs. Our Guild Leader ordered us to retreat but I didn't expect that order to become a full scale collapse. The waist of the mountain actually caved in and some people fell in."

I, "…"

In Hero Mound's formation, Q-Sword walked over and said, "Tell Flying Dragon not to retreat. Stay here or it will scatter our formation. If you don't dare then let us do it."

Drunken Spear frowned but didn't retort, "The peak is Yin Huo's home and there is a hall there with a huge number of Spirit Umbrella Bugs, and Spirit Flower Bugs. If you are sure that you want to go there then I won't stop you."

He looked at me, "Xiao Yao honestly we were careless. Without NPCs helping us, we are fighting with empty fists. We aren't their match."

Old K laughed, "Look at how scared he is…"

He didn't say a word and just moved aside, "Since I can't stop you then go ahead. I will organise some Flying Dragon brothers to help out. If you can't win then just retreat. We can at least get back to Tian Ling City with the number of men we have, it isn't too embarrassing."

I nodded, "En let's try first. If not everyone won't agree to retreat just like that."

"En, be careful!"

…

"Forwards!" Li Mu rode his red dragon and raised his sword up.

Zhan Long, Legend, Hero Mound, Prague etc charged forwards. Since we were already here so it was impossible for us to retreat just like that. The guild leaders won't agree and so would the members. Each guild leader had to consider the feelings of the members if not things might go south. The entire guild might even disband from unhappiness.

I didn't fly and just made Mei'er walk and defend in the front of Zhan Long. The Furnace God Cavalries behind me pulled out their weapons and were prepared to welcome sudden strikes. We weren't disappointed as we saw that Rising Sun like Blood was falling back. Minimalist led 1000+ people and they had lost their armor. Many of them had deep wounds on them and they had lost a lot of durability.

I frowned. This wasn't right, did the Hybrid Demon Army have armor breaking effect like my Gan Jiang? They could crush defensive weapons and break armor?

I raised my head and I heard killing shouts from in front. A bunch of red armored cavalries charged out and even their horses were red. This was the level 8 Hybrid Demon-Shura Cavalry, a soldier type that we had never seen before.

"Be careful!"

Call Me Master brushed past Zhan Long and said loudly, "The Shura Cavalry has armor-breaking effect!"

"En?" Xue Rou frowned and said loudly, "Be careful,

prepare to fight. Ranged players keep on firing and try to keep them out of range. Furnace God Cavalry hold up your shields!"

Ahead, the bunch of Shura cavalries had charged over. A few of them raised their swords and used Shura Slash on me.

Sword light landed on my body but it didn't hurt much. They just dealt 8000+ damage. I raised my hand and that dealt a hundred thousand damage. Were the Shura Cavalry as strong as Call Me Master said? Two of them brushed past me and opened their hands. Streaks of death energy spun around them and charged into the Furnace God Cavalries. It was an AOE effect- Ten Thousand Blades!

"Ka ka…"

The blades slashed my Overlord Armor and two sparks flew-

Battle notification: Shura Cavalry used Ten Thousand Blades, dealing 17239 damage. As your strength exceeds the Shura Cavalry, armor breaking effect is negated!

Battle notification: Shura Cavalry used Ten Thousand Blades, dealing 18718 damage. As your strength exceeds the Shura Cavalry, armor breaking effect is negated!

…

So that was the case, if one's strength was above them then there wouldn't be the armor breaking effect?

The truth wasn't that. The lower one's strength was the higher the chance of triggering it. When the strength was around the same, the effect was around 10%.

In less than a minute, someone in the Furnace God Cavalry exclaimed, "Damn, my armor lost 20% durability, their attack style is so sick!"

Even Yue Qing Qian was hit by 20% and those players that were unlucky kept getting hit. Their durability had dropped to 40%. If this continued, many people would be like Rising Sun like Blood and Flying Dragon. Their durability would empty out.

"Hold on!"

I slashed with my sword and tossed my skills out. I looked at the Zhan Long players and said loudly, "Those with low durability retreat and let someone else take over. Don't force things!"

Since these Shura Cavalry affected durability, Lin Wan Er didn't land. She just rode Little White to attack from above. Dong Cheng Yue stood behind her and tossed her spells to deal the most damage.

In the distance, there were rumblings. This was from Fang Ge Que's magic. The higher a Mage's magic attack the more explosions and chaos they would cause. Fang Ge Que and Dong Cheng Yue both had thunder when they cast and the ripples were quite shocking.

After half an hour, we finally killed the Shura Cavalries in front of us. After which, a bunch of Spirit Umbrella Bugs ran down and we still had to fight.

We didn't have to fear the Spirit Umbrella Bugs, the scary ones were the Spirit Flower Bugs. These explosive bugs were problematic and they weren't afraid of dying. Unless we could kill them from range, or else we would suffer from their explosion.

Dong Cheng Yue and Dong Cheng Yue's damage were key. Especially Dancing Forest. The only Supreme Country Weapon was in her hands and that was the weapon with the highest damage in the game. Sun Shooting Bow could prevent the Spirit Flower Bugs from exploding in our camp. Arrows shot out like meteors which filled Hero Mound and Prague players with envy. At this point, Dancing Forest's attack was probably top in the server.

But one person couldn't salvage the whole situation. More and more Spirit Flower Bugs exploded. Our Furnace God Cavalries were good at tanking but still many of them died. The healers weren't able to heal them in time and Yue Yao Yan could only rely on the Greedy Shield to maintain their health. Meng Yao also used Nuwa Protection to help raise our health. We were doing what we can, to do what Flying Dragon and Rising Sun like Blood couldn't.

…

This was really a blood bath. Many huge holes appeared from the Spirit Umbrella Bugs attacks. Zhan Long players' equipment and potions dropped to the floor. The number of Spirit Flower Bugs reduced but we lost many people too. When they were all killed, Zhan Long went from 11000 to 4000+.

Legend, Hero Mound and Prague were worse. They had gone all out and now each guild only had around 10 thousand players. Many of their elites were killed and their guild leaders had ugly expressions on their faces. No matter if we could kill the boss or not, our plan was a failure. Even if we did, so may people died so all the guild leaders would have to reflect.

The mountain waist was covered in corpses. Li Mu and Wang Jian ordered them to clean up the battlefield and keep the items that the dead players had dropped. After which we continued towards Yin Huo's hall!

…

We climbed up and when we were at the peak, many level 9 Hybrid Demons appeared. Godslayer Bone Crushers, they had a chance of dropping skills of the gods. But everyone didn't have high hopes as one wouldn't even drop even if we killed a hundred thousand of them.

We charged and the entire mountain was covered in our players. What filled us with emotions was that although millions entered the canyon, but less than 200 thousand were left. This was the biggest reason for the failure. Moreover, this wasn't an event so the players that died weren't compensated. Levels were still okay, those unlucky ones even lost equipment.

At the night, we could see a black hall on the peak. Blue lamps lit up the area around and made it look quite elegant. However, everyone knew that a lord was inside, someone that might make us regret coming here.

"Sha sha…"

We were right ahead and Hero Mound's members didn't look good. Tang Gu asked Q-Sword, "Guild Leader, I will draw the boss out?"

Q-Sword said, "En, be careful."
