Chapter 565 Forest Giants

“Ge ge… . ”

A screech suddenly came from the sky and not long after, a flock of Warhawk Knights appeared in the sky . Each of them wielded an iron halberd and had an armor of Dou Qi surrounding them . They funneled the Dou Qi energy into their halberds and in the next moment, they swung their halberd, creating a slice of light . “Pu pu pu!” the slices cut into the Predators’ bodies and blood spurted forth and fell to the ground .

“Eh…”

I wiped off some of the blood from my face . I looked up . More and more Hybrid Demon Predators were charging forward to attack the Warhawk Knights . However, there were at least 5000 Warhawk Knights . For the sake of her brother Luo Lin, Angela brought out all of her air forces .

……

One after another, the Warhawk Knights swooped towards the ground, their iron halberds piercing through the Predators . Under the protection of the Warhawk Knights, the city’s battle situation slowly returned to our control .

“Sha sha… . ”

Frost stood against the wind, her cape billowing behind her . An icy wind rose up and a strong Dou Qi spread out, crushing the Demon Sword Masters to death . I acted as support and also activated [Ice Domain], freezing a crowd of Demon Sword Masters around us .

The Ancient Hero Ran Min raised his longsword and guarded Frost’ back . If any Hybrid Demon tried to get near Frost, they would all be killed by Ran Min . This NPC Ran Min was so much stronger than our Old K… .

“Peng!”

My Dragon Reservoir Sword pierced through one Demon Swordmaster . “Wu wu” it shuddered and dropped a pair of leather leg guards . It also dropped a card . I picked them up to look . Not bad, a Valkyrie Tier equipment . I threw it over to Wei Liang . Qing Qian’s were better, there was no need for her to switch out . As for the card, several of [Zhan Long]’s players had gotten these cards from the Level 4 Hybrid Demons . This was, however, my first . It’s stats were extremely OP——

[Demon Sword Master Card]: Increases the user’s attack power by 30% and Max HP by 20% . Furthermore, it increases the user’s base defense by 700 . Required: Level 95 . Lasts for 180 minutes .

……

I was starting to get excited . This was the best card that I’ve gotten since I’ve entered the game . It increased my attack and defense twice over . This was exactly the item that we needed . When I raised my hand, I successfully used the card and a sword appeared above my head . My attack power increased by 30% and my base defense increased by 700 points . Furthermore my HP increased by 20% . I now had 36,000 health . This lasted for 180 minutes . This card was a great thing . I needed to collect more and more .

And so, I left a message in the guild chat, telling them to collect more and more of these cards . Qing Qian and Wan Er both gave me two . Those two specialized in getting drops while I just focused on killing, I didn’t even look at the drops .

From then on, I continuously killed monsters and the corpses piled up . Large amounts of the Sword Master cards began to build up . At the same time, we also faced the continuous attacks from the Demon Sword Masters . My [Wall of Dou Qi] and [Frost Armor] kept shattering, but would condense again right afterwards . I didn’t even need to worry about my magic power . After all, I had a lot, and I brought quite a few Level 9 pills with me . That was more than enough for me to use .

Another hour passed and most of the Demon Sword Masters had been killed . The city walls were covered with player and monster bodies . My bag on the other hand had around 11 Demon Sword Master cards . I could use them one after another . All of a sudden I heard a “Ding!” . Without me noticing, Ice Spear and Frost Armor all leveled up to level 6 . I had been continuously using the two skills, leveling them up quickly . [Frost Armor] was especially important to level up . The higher its level, the stronger its durability . Now, it was even harder to break . As long as I could persist through the attacks and began measuring the cool downs, then my [Frost Armor] could last for a long time .

“Now we’re waiting for the BOSS to come…”

Wan Er’s beautiful eyes looked towards the distance and she said, “It should be a level 116 Divine Tier BOSS . What should we do, should we fight it? Such a hard decision…”

I smiled, “Let’s see where fate takes us . We shouldn’t fight for it though . We only have 100+ people, that’s not enough to hold off a BOSS…”

“Yes…”

……

Drops of Demon Sword Master blood dripped off of my sword onto the ground . Stepping onto the corpse of one monster on the edge, I looked into the distance . I then said to Qing Qian, “Melon, report on the battle situation and our losses…”

Qing Qian nodded . After half a minute, she looked at me and said, “Brother Xiao Yao, right now we still have 117 people in Dragon City . Of them, 81 are from the main guild . There’s still 2000+ players at the bottom of the mountain . But I don’t suggest we call on them . Thus, Brother Fox had them grind levels near Ba Huang City . This is the 16th wave . There was a total of 24,000 Demon Sword Masters this time . Players killed 7459 of them . Of that, [Zhan Logn] killed 2971, which is pretty good . After this battle, [Zhan Long] definitely won’t fall behind in terms of points . ”

I smiled, “Yep . I’m pretty satisfied with this kind of result . . ”

Li Mu stepped forward and said, “Xiao Yao, let’s not fight the BOSS . Why don’t we just let the NPCs kill it . Otherwise, we can create a special BOSS killing team . You’ll be the tank . We can then fight along with the NPCs and kill the BOSS like that . That way we can get the experience and rewards . ”

I took a deep breath, “Yea . We’ll act on the opportunity given . Let’s begin creating that special team right now . I’ll be the Tank . Dong Cheng, Dancing Forest, Tang Xue, and Lian Po will be the DPS . Darling Duck and Thousand League will handle the heals . Wan Er, Qing Qian, and Wolf will deal damage and stun . Let’s get a few more healers . The less people we use the better . Otherwise, our losses will become greater and greater . Qing Qian, of our losses, how many held an officer position?”

Qing Qian pursed her lip and said, “Just now, during the Demon Sword Masters, the battle scene was chaotic . We had lost quite a few . Of them, Lin Xiao Xie, Tearless, Winter Snow, Star Blade, Moonfeather and Gentle Touch the six flag bearer level players all died…”

I was slightly stunned, “Oh . Even Moonfeather died?”

“Mhm . ” Qing Qian nodded with a smile, “Feeling a stab in your heart?”

I looked at everyone and smiled, “If any of [Zhan Long]’s players died, of course I would feel begrudged . However, seeing as this quest came to us, then there were bound to be sacrifices . The only thing I can do is lead everyone to kill as many Hybrid Demons as I can and make sure that everyone here can recover their losses by the end of this quest . I believe that every player in [Zhan Long] will receive a generous reward because while we had lost the most players, we have also killed the most monsters!”

Not far, Jian Feng Han smiled, “Li Xiao Yao, stop showing off . The seventeenth wave of monsters is about to come . Let’s see if your [Zhan Long] can still stand after that!”

I wryly smiled, “Just you watch . Even if our last player dies, we will never retreat… . ”

“Alright… . ”

Jian Feng Han smiled as he gripped his sword . He didn’t reply but I knew that he must be feeling extremely awkward . That was because when the Demon Sword Masters attacked, [Vanguard]’s main guild of around 200+ players all retreated into the city . They weren’t willing to die a pointless death from these Level 4 Hybrid Demons .

Simple raised her staff, her pale cheeks covered with ash and dust . Her clean robes were also dirtied with quite a bit of dirt, but her eyes had a solid determination in them . It was because of this sister who was the vice guildmaster that Jian Feng Han could command with no worry . There wasn’t a battle that she did not command to victory . He must feel a lot of pride in a sister like that .

When I thought to that point, I couldn’t help but think of my own sister, Meng Yao . She was naturally talented . And with the intelligence of that brat, she would definitely become a great help and become one of the top players . As long as we patiently waited, Meng Yao Ge Jing, this ID will soon be known by every player and she will become my right hand as one of [Zhan Long]’s representatives .

……

“Brother Xiao Yao…” Qing Qian looked towards me .

“What’s up?” I asked with a smile .

The beautiful and cute [Zhan Long] vice guildmaster smiled back and said, “This Dragon City Defense battle is practically on a country scale . Currently, in the [Zhan Long] hall, there’s only you, me and Sister Cang Tong . How about this, the player with the most points, besides the three of us, in this defense battle gets to enter into Zhan Long Hall . With that many points, there must be a proportional reward…”

I looked at the Dragon City rankings . In the rankings chart, our [Zhan Long] held a number of positions . I had number 1, Dong Cheng was number 4, Dancing Forest was ranked fifth while Li Mu was seventh . The top player was probably going to be from one of those three . Li Mu had been working hard the entire time, and was a viable choice for Zhan Long Hall . Right now, there was still a chance, although not a big one . After all, the chances of a swordsman killing monsters was much lower than that of an archer or a mage . However, Li Mu entering [Zhan Long] hall was going to happen sooner or later . Let’s first talk about getting Dong Cheng and Dancing Forest in first .

And so I nodded and said, “Ok, we’ll do just that!”

“Ok ok!”

Not long after, the BOSS appeared, but none of the players were able to touch it . It was quickly killed by Frost and Luo Lin .

No other way, we just had to wait for the 17th wave .

……

“They’re here, the seventeenth wave…” Li Mu excitedly pointed to the distance .

The sound of birds flying suddenly rose from the distance forest . In the next moment, giant figures suddenly appeared . They were at least five meters tall and carried a heavy mace . Its skin was thick and it had a loincloth wrapped around its waist . The enormous giant brandished its weapon and began charging towards Dragon City,

“Forest Giant, a level 117 monster, Level 4 Hybrid Demon . It’s attack power is extremely high…”

I gripped my blade in front of my chest and smiled, “Let’s pull back our defense line . We’ll only guard 10 yards of land . This time, we need to do our best to minimize our losses . Everyone it’s time for battle!”

Li Mu, Wang Jian, and Ran Min all nodded . This time there were only 10 people lined up in front . They were all the guild’s strongest players . I, Wan Er, and Matcha stood at the very front . Then there were two rows of defense shields to avoid any openings .

“Peng peng peng… . ”

The ground under our feet began to shudder . It was the Forest Giants beginning their climb . After 16 waves of monsters, Dragon City’s walls were now covered in dents . Who knew how long it would stand .
