Zhan Long Chapter 1047

Chapter 1047- Laying in wait

The India region players had moved into Waterfront City for a month and they lacked all sorts of resources. Waterfront City was less than 50% the scale of Flaming Cloud City so naturally, it was unable to provide enough leveling resources for them. As a result, Clear Black Eyes's guild's average level was 2.7 lower than that of Zhan Long. From that, one could see the gap. Moreover, since Beautiful Life couldn't compare to us, the mid and small-sized guilds were even worse. Game depended on levels and once there was a gap, one's hidden stats would be suppressed and attacks would easily miss. Naturally, they would stand no chance at all.

...

Over an hour later, Ye Lai brought Judgement members over. A while later, Q-Sword led Hero Mound's 40 thousand people over to a.s.sist. Enchanted Painting was here too with 10 thousand Legend cavalry players. This battle lasted to 11 pm and finally, India Region's players were greatly reduced. Clear Black Eyes had no strength to change anything.

But, we also suffered heavy losses to destroy Clear Black Eyes's 40 million army.

Piles of campfire burnt in the forest. Player and NPC corpses laid all around. I checked Fan Shu City's soldier interface and my heart hurt. We lost 51% Cliff Dragon Cavalry and 67% Flame Hawk Archers. How long would it take to produce these many troops?

But it was okay, the sacrifices would definitely be worth it.

I looked at Zhan Long and Judgement and we suffered huge losses too. Each guild lost at least 50% of our troops. Close to 2 million of us fought but now 700 thousand remained. The outcome was that 3.5 million Indian player corpses were laying there. Clear Black Eyes also went all out but she didn't expect that they couldn't win. Beautiful Life was left with less than 10 thousand and she led them back towards Waterfront City. Li Mu wanted to chase but I stopped him.

I looked at the time, and there were 13 hours left till the end of the event.

Ye Lai, Li Mu, Misty Clouds, Mu Xuan, Q-Sword etc all wanted to charge in from the southwest and then fight for the city. The prerequisite was for someone to defend the entrance and that landed on Blood Contract. Han Bei Song was given the t.i.tle of defending general was us and he was helpless, "As long as Clear Black Eyes return, her first blade will slash my face. That is just so sad, why not leave some people for me?"

In the end, Ye Lai and Misty Clouds were brothers and left 200 thousand troops to guard the entrance.

But, Clear Black Eyes might gather a million people. Along with Drunk Maple, both sides would have over 2 million troops. Although it wasn't much as compared to the large battlefield, this gamble might be hard to handle.

...

Night, Lin Wan Er, Yue Qing Qian and I surrounded the campfire. Dozens of Furnace G.o.d Cavalry gathered around. We hadn't joined in the battle for the city and that was left to Li Mu and w.a.n.g Jian. Whether or not Zhan Long could get it depended on them. As for us, we had more important things.

Yue Qing Qian used her dagger to push at the twigs, "Brother Xiao Yao, why are we here and not attacking the city?"

I said, "You will know soon."

Yue Qing Qian blinked, "Is Brother Xiao Yao planning to use the NPC army to intercept Clear Black Eyes?"

"Smart."

I looked at her with praise and smiled, "But you aren't totally right.

”

"Ah?" Yue Qing Qian opened her mouth slightly and smiled, "Brother Xiao Yao is too naughty. You must have thought of a plan to scam Clear Black Eyes right?"

I laughed, "No, how can I do that? Moreover, Clear Black Eyes have killed so many china players... I can't even count the number."

Lin Wan Er touched Little White's huge forehead, "If I am right, piggy didn't even think about the city right?"

I nodded and rested on the tree behind me. I smiled, "What can one ancient imperial city change? Waterfront City was taken by the Indians and after 72 hours, the country war would begin. Jian Feng Han, Rumor, Bai Li Ruo feng etc were all going all out with Nine Heavens City for the city but so what if they got it. How could we block the east and west attacks in the next country war?"

I felt a little bitter, "Moon City, Swirling Abyss City, Iron Skull City won't let us go. The second country war would mean that War G.o.d River would be under huge threat. Rumor's Heaven Planning Hall is offending Nine Heavens City. If we can't cause Clear Black Eyes to lose her trump card now, we don't have to fight the next battle at all."

Shock appeared in Lin Wan Er's eyes, "You are thinking?"

"Right."

I looked at her and smiled, "We really are going all out. Clear Black Eyes is too smart. She will definitely attack Flaming Cloud City during the second country war and to protect it, I need to cause Waterfront City's army to lose their ability to fight. This ancient imperial city is a good chance."

Yue Qing Qian was shocked, "Brother Xiao Yao, what are you thinking?"

I smiled. There was n.o.body else around, just the two beautiful deputy guild leaders. I said, "Whether or not we get the city doesn't matter but Clear Black Eyes and Drunk Maple will definitely want the 200 thousand ancient demon troops. So in the next 10 hours, she will come with the 500 thousand Waterfront City troops. She will use the cannons to suppress us and try to take the city down."

Lin Wan Er said, "So what are you thinking?"

I smiled, "My idea is simple. After the battle ends, the map will chase NPCs and players away and players can use City Return Scrolls. However, the NPC army can't. I have used my ident.i.ty as The Executor to gather 11 million NPC troops south of Demon Bamboo Forest. As long as Clear Black Eyes dare to let the Flame Lion Army and Azure Ocean Army attack the city, I will destroy them!"

Yue Qing Qian opened her mouth and her eyes were filled with shock and joy, "Great. Fighting alongside Brother Xiao Yao just feels so safe."

I nodded, "So let's just defend here and wait for news. Let them fight of the ancient city."

"En!"

...

Night, I decided to sleep. I told Lin Wan Er and Yue Qing Qian to wake at 9. Then, it would be 3 hours to the end of the event and that was enough. I didn't care about who the city belonged to and what I cared about was whether or not I could crush Waterfront City before the next country war.

I slept well during the night and it was already 8 am the next day when I woke. I got up, ate breakfast and then went online!

"Shua!"

I appeared at the border of the Deer Forest, this place was 30 minutes away from the city. It wasn't far but it wasn't near either. The map was red which meant that an intense battle was occurring there. I looked at the forums and there were many reports. When we were offline, the battle was just so intense--

Battle Report 1:04: Nine Heavens City's top player Demon Mountain led Thor's Hammer to enter the path and killed 3000+ players from House of Prestige.

Battle Report 2:27: Fang Ge Que intercepted Nine Heavens City's troops and wiped out the 7000 led by Demon Mountain with 20 thousand troops. Demon Mountain led 200+ people to escape into the mountains.

Battle Report 3:41: Clear Black Eyes, Drunk Maple led 2.4 million Waterfront City players out to crush Blood Contract at the southwest entrance. She led 500 thousand NPC troops and 100 cannons to push towards the city.

Battle Report 4:12: Fang Ge Que led 10 thousand people into the city and into the city hall. He has obtained control of the ancient imperial city.

Battle Report 5:41: Clear Black Eyes used cannons to fire at the city and also sent cavalry to sneak attack Nine Heavens City's 20 thousand NPC army. She forced Fang Ge Que to retreat from the city.

Battle Report 7:22: Heaven Planning Hall Rumor gathered 3 million china forces to crush Nine Heavens City and Demon Mountain. 4 of the 7 kings of 7K were killed. China has obtained a huge victory.

Battle Report 8:30: A huge battle on the path as Li Mu, Mu Xuan etc players killed Indian players. Both sides suffered heavy losses. Nine Heavens City's Portugal Region top beauty Purple Wind Flute led 200 thousand people to head over the mountain range. She sneak-attacked and chased Clear Black Eyes and Drunk Maple out of the city. She has occupied the hall.

...

This battle was far more intense than I thought.

At 11, Li Mu, Mu Xuan and Ye Lai had retreated due to their heavy losses. Moreover, Demon Mountain led 20 million Nine Heavens City people to counterattack. Rumor, Fang Ge Que, Jian Feng Han etc were really tired from fighting. Moreover, Demon Mountain had brought 200 thousand NPCs and 250 Dragon Crystal Cannons which caused Rumor to suffer a huge defeat. He was forced to retreat towards Ba Huang City.

At this point, China's attempt to get the city ended in failure. But Rumor definitely wouldn't take this loss. However, China didn't have much time at all. 3 hours, it was impossible to turn the tides.

...

Until 1 pm, the battle was still really intense. It ended up as a battlefield between Nine Heavens City and Indian war region. I was looking on while settling the Tian Ling City's troops around Three Blade Mountain and Deer Forest. I waited for the battle to end.

At 2 pm, finally, a bell rang in the sky. China and India's regions failed to get the city--

"Di!"

System Notification: Congratulations player Purple Wind Flute (Portugal) for occupying an ancient imperial city. It is now officially Cold Winter's camp.

The map will refresh so all players will be removed. Apart from that, player Clear Black Eyes is the MVP and other ranked players will receive their rewards!

...

I was ranked seventh so I didn't bother about any rewards.

The valley was silent and the Royal Army troops were laying in wait. Our cannons were covered by dense shrubs and they were all ready to fire.

"General, when will they come?" Han Yuan asked.

I wiped b.u.t.terfly and smiled confidently, "Calm down, they will come sooner or later."

"Yes!"
