Chapter 745: Yasen’s Pain, New Reinforcements
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Oh my G.o.d! Did they really manage to hold them back? Amazing!”
“Wow, my goodness! Killing two hundred thousand demons and slaying dozens of demon heroes, this should be the best record since the official demon invasion began. But I wonder how many casualties they suffered.”
“The Islander is awesome! (cheers) I knew the Islander would be able to stop the demon’s attack, right? Those who said otherwise should pay up!”
“This is just a vanguard legion of demons, nothing much. There’s still a million-strong demon army behind them, so the outcome is still uncertain…”
Before the official demon invasion, many optimistic players on the forum made bets on whether the Crown of the Ocean led by Ji Chen could withstand the first wave of demon attacks.
Everyone knew that the Islander referred to Ji Chen. These two names, each with dazzling achievements, naturally attracted a lot of attention when merged into one person.
In fact, many players wagered that the Islander wouldn’t be able to fend off the a.s.sault. It made sense, considering the demons from the Chaos Abyss, who had been lurking for tens of thousands of years before resurfacing, sounded incredibly threatening. Despite the Islander being at the Epic tier and boasting tens of thousands of elite troops, the demon army numbered in the millions, with numerous high-level demon heroes and even top-tier demons like the Dreadlord Balzarna among them.
At first glance, just by looking at the numbers on paper, even before the war started, it seemed like public opinion was leaning towards the demons winning.
However, they never imagined that they would win this first battle. And not only did they win, but they also won so beautifully and quickly. They repelled the vanguard legion of five hundred thousand demons and killed two hundred thousand in just four or five days.
On the one hand, those who lost the bet reluctantly paid up, and on the other hand, they were curious about how the Islander and the Crown of the Ocean managed to repel the demon vanguard legion.
Just as they were full of doubts, suddenly someone jumped out and vividly described how the Crown of the Ocean repelled the demons.
“I’m telling you, that day, the big boss Islander and I were killing like crazy together. With just one move from the big boss, dozens of powerful hero units appeared behind, leading tens of thousands of powerful troops to charge out.
When the demons saw them, they were terrified and couldn’t even run away before we chopped them down…”
“Don’t bulls.h.i.+t here, tell the truth, will you?”
“Don’t you bulls.h.i.+t me, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
“I’m telling you the truth but you didn’t believe me…” I_Love_Black_Stockings sat casually in a chair, facing the screen in front of her that only she could see, vigorously typing, her face full of the expression of a stubborn child.
The Kobold Strategist looked at the scene on the forum, where their guild leader was bantering with other players, and couldn’t help but sigh.
He reminded her, “Guild Leader, it’s almost time for the appointment with Lord Ji Chen, if we don’t leave now, we’ll be late.”
I_Love_Black_Stockings then reluctantly closed the forum, slid her legs clad in black stockings into her boots, and then jumped up and headed out.
“Let’s go!”
The Kobold Strategist shook his head and followed suit.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the Lord’s castle of the Crown of the Ocean, and they went directly to a large hall on the side.
Ji Chen, along with many heroes of the Crown of the Ocean, the commander of the Elven support army, and important figures from Dragon Island such as Babatos and Serena, were already here.
“Big Boss Ji Chen, we’re here!”
Ji Chen nodded slightly and asked, “Why are you only just arriving? Did yesterday’s battle tire you out?”
I_Love_Black_Stockings waved her hand and revealed a mysterious smile. “No, I was just standing on the city wall, how could I be tired? I was actually helping you with something just now.”
“Oh? What was it?”
“Of course, I was vigorously promoting your heroic stance and magnificent achievements in repelling the demons on chat channels and forums!
At my speed of five messages per second, many players now know that the Crown of the Ocean repelled the demon vanguard legion. You’re now the first player to resist the demons, and your reputation is soaring!”
Ji Chen was taken aback for a moment, then casually opened the chat channels and forums to take a look. Sure enough, there were discussions about him and the Crown of the Ocean, some of which were amusing and some were exasperating.
At such a crucial moment, these players still found the time to brag and gamble. It really showed the idea that while some are facing challenges, others are living carefree lives.
Without paying too much attention to these, he closed the chat channels and forums, placed his hands on the table, and looked around at the many representatives gathered around the round table.
In a solemn tone, he said, “The specific casualties and material losses from the past few days have been compiled.
The Crown of the Ocean, including the Great Luminescent Sea Navy, suffered approximately eighteen thousand casualties, including five thousand troops of fifth-tier and three hundred troops of sixth-tier.
The Elven support army has not suffered any deaths yet, but about fifty were seriously injured and had to withdraw from the upcoming battles. As for Dragon Island, two excellent-level dragons fell, twelve excellent-level dragons and two rare-level dragons were seriously injured, and the others were either unharmed or lightly injured.
As for the Guild of King Kong Island…”
The Kobold Strategist quickly interjected, “The Guild of King Kong Island suffered a total loss of ninety thousand troops, including eighty thousand fourth-tier troops and fifteen thousand fifth-tier troops, with no casualties among hero units.”
Although the casualties among ordinary troops were not small, the number of casualties among hero units was minimal, mainly because the efficiency of the heroes of the Crown of the Ocean in slaughtering enemies was too high. One hero could chase down several demon heroes, putting little pressure on other heroes.
Only two excellent-tier dragons from Dragon Island were blinded by rage and inadvertently ventured deep into the enemy’s ranks, where they were surrounded and killed by several times their number of demon heroes.
