Zhan Long-Chapter 1306: Nine Heaven City movement

After waiting for roughly an hour, over 5 million players were gathered in Deer Lake Forest. Most of them were those that had died on the various battlefields. A lot of them were level 234, stuck at level 235, and unable to ascend so once they died they dropped to level 234. If they died again then their level would drop to 232.

……

The sound of horse hooves spread from the distance, from the plains one could see fresh flags, they were NPC troops from Tian Ling City. It was the Xia You Army led by Qu Hu. The overall number was around 100 thousand and it seemed like they had backed down from the Fire God Mountain battlefield. Qu Hu rode over and cupped his fists, “The Executor, his majesty has sent me here. I have brought 50 thousand cavalries and 50 thousand infantry. Apart from that, there is a heavy cannon unit with 70 Dragon Crystal Cannons and 200 Flame Rock Cannons.”

“Very good!”

I nodded, to reclaim Jiuli City we needed such an NPC army. Sky Rose’s 3 million were just players and they didn’t have siege weapons. As long as I had this army, it wouldn’t be hard to take down Jiuli City.

Li Mu said, “There are close to 6 million players, Xiao Yao let’s head out!”

“Okay!”

I held the sword and rode the dragon’s back. After an order, the team moved towards Jiuli City and even House of Prestige and Vanguard listened to me. No choice, I was the top of all players, and I could also command the NPCs. This was an ability the players respected. Although I was just one player but I represented the NPC troops of the entire china region, this was something everyone knew.

……

No one could stop us. Sky Rose wasn’t stupid and she wouldn’t let the Iron Skull City players attack us as that would just be asking for death and reducing the number of troops they have to defend the city. Sky Rose’s best plan was to hide inside and defend, use the city’s strength to reduce our numbers and delay time. In truth, that was what she was doing.

I passed Jiuli Forest, from afar, a dark red secondary city appeared, Jiuli City!

Unfortunately, the flag on it wasn’t the China flag but the Americans and Iron Skull Empire Flag. In the skies, many gryphons circled and shrieked. There were many Iron Skull City players that were in place. Among them were some NPCs that had belonged to china but they rebelled after the city was taken down. They were moving crossbow carriages and flame rock cannons. Luckily they didn’t have Dragon Crystal Cannons as Jiuli City’s cannons wre moved away.

Before I gave an order, the players started to siege. After I gave permission, Li Mu, Mocha also led 10 thousand Zhan Long players to attack. Xia Yu Army’s NPCs provided many Cloud Ladders, siege chariots etc, making it easier to attack the city.

“Order the Dragon Crystal Cannons to fire at the city gates.” I said.

Qu Hu cupped his fists, “Yes The Executor!”

In the next moment, cannons fired but what surprised me was that the south gate of Jiuli City creaked open and hundreds of players surged out to form the so-called God Shield Wall. Behind them were healers trying to add AOE heals. In the end, the Dragon Crystal Cannons exploded in the crowd but the God Shield Wall stood tall. With the heals, only a few people died in seconds and the empty spots were also filled up.

“Sky Rose is really smart.” Yue Qing Qian smiled, “She is actually using such a method to protect the gate.”

I nodded and held Butterfly, “Let’s charge once and see if their God Shield Wall can block player and NPC cannon attacks!”

“En!”

Lin Wan Er, Yue Qing Qian and I activated God Form and flew over. They were extremely quick and the Dragon Crystal Cannons continued to fire which also caused a fog. I charged into the mist and struck the wall. I raised my hand and used Wind Carrying Slash. Although the players inside could share health and tank damage together, but dozens died under my 15 hits and a huge hole appeared in the wall.

Lin Wan Er charged and both Dragontooth Blade and Broken Rainbow. Dozens of shields were slashed. Crescent Moon Storm+City Shaking Dance was used and then she used Igoras Strike. Hundreds of Archers on the walls were even directly killed by it.

“Weng!”

Flames exploded and it was Yue Qing Qian’s Grasp of the Firefox which exploded among the cavalries and killed dozens of them right away. Half of those that Sky Rose sent to protect the gate had died. Dancing Forest, Fox etc damaged and the rest found it hard to tank. Zhan Long’s damage was too high such that their healers couldn’t heal up in time.

Cold light descended and it was actually Sky Rose!

I raised my left hand and used Gan Jiang to block!

“Keng!”

Sparks flew, Sky Rose’s strength wasn’t as high as my and was forced back. I charged up and then light shone as I used my combo, Strength of a Thousand Men!

Sky Rose gritted her teeth and used her Scorch Flame Shield to block four of the attacks. But the fifth slash sliced her armor and dealt 498171 damage. She exclaimed, and used Sword Rush to move aside!

“Shua!”

She came beside Wang Jian and attacked. Wang Jian’s health was down to 50% but he wasn’t a noob. He shook Dragonhorse Blade while he was attacked and used Halberd Sweep+Bladespin. A sharp blade turned into a cold light that sliced the sky which caused Sky Rose’s health to drop to 20%.

When Sky Rose was planning to move aside again, a beautiful figure flashed across. It was Mocha. No one even saw her fast hits as sword light shone. Sky Rose didn’t even channel the skill before she was interrupted and stunned. She couldn’t even activate her invincibility.

“Die!”

In an instance, Mocha’s Star Region Slash+Starfire Strike landed on Sky Rose’s shoulder. Mocha had already ascended so with her stats and attack it wasn’t a problem to kill Sky Rose.

I actually saw despair and helplessness on her face. Right, even she had nothing she could do among all the Chinese region experts. She tried her best but the enemy was too strong. She used all her skills but the enemy still had various special skills and aoe skills.

When Mocha was about to end her, a cavalry shouted, “Sacrifice!”

A red light shone on Sky Rose’s body and caused Mocha’s damage to shift to his body. Sky Rose was fine but the cavalry knelt down on the ground and he died. That was a low grade cavalry and he still didn’t manage to block Mocha’s strike.

In that instance, Sky Rose used Sword Rush to move on the walls but she also gained enough time. There were many Archers, Musketeers and Mages waiting on the arrow tower behind.

“Focus fire!”

Sky Rose gave an order. Numerous arrows and spells shot over. Zhan Long only had dozens of players blocking in front but they had to tank 300 ranged players’ damage.

“Retreat!”

I ordered while spreading my left hand. Star Shield was formed and I covered everyone. I heard splattering sounds and numerous arrows and spells shot out.

Mocha, Li Mu, Wan Er and I discussed. We couldn’t sacrifice our levels here. The crossbow chariots and Flame Rock Cannons on the walls fired. Let House of Prestige and Soaring Dragon charge first and then Zhan Long can give a fatal blow.

We used a kiting strategy and didn’t give them a chance to focus fire on us. Along the way I used Bladespin and Great Realm of Desolation on the walls to kill them to get points. Anyways, I wasn’t to be at a disadvantage.

……

Under Jiuli City, more and more chinese players gathered. After an hour, over 7 million players were here. Even Hero Mound returned. Q-Sword, Tang Qi, Tang Gu, Sword Tears etc were in the crowd. Q-Sword galloped over to find me, “It has been tough on you Xiao Yao.”

“You too.”

I turned around to look at Jiuli City, “The Americans have occupied this for too long of a time, prepare to attack?”

“Okay!”

Q-Sword nodded and smiled, “I led 70 thousand Hero Mound players over for this!”

……

At that moment, a War Hawk Knight descended from above and it was from Royal Army, “The Executor, 150 thousand Nine Heaven City Summer Fire Army troops ended Zhenhai Pass and will enter Bahuang City’s land in a while.

“En?”

I frowned, “Nine Heaven City is planning to move, they aren’t attacking Waterfront City but getting to Bahuang City? Check the situation at Waterfront city?”

Yue Qing Qian asked for a few seconds and raised her head, “Demon Mountain split his forces and defeated Waterfront City’s 7k at Triple Blade Mountain.”

I looked at Mocha, “Little Rou, 7k lost, what do you think?”

She spat out her tongue, “Losing is expected, it was tough to last for a full day and night. Nine Heaven City with Demon Mountain is obviously stronger.”

Q-Sword frowned, “Demon Mountain is just moving his resources before attacking.”

I nodded, “He wants to attack Bahuang City.”

Tang Qi said, “Americans took down Jiuli City and the Germans want Bahuang City. Next should be Fan Shu City. They want to take down Tian Ling City’s three satellite cities?”
