Chapter 569: Chapter 535: Receiving the Lakeside City Wall
With a flash of light, the Flying teleported to the shore of the Pool of Radiance. As far as the eye could see, the lakeshore city walls were indeed a vast ocean, and Da Fei was astounded by the densely packed masses of the Demon Army surging on the walls.
What does this resemble? Like ants huddled together on twigs in a flood! How many would one cannon shot pierce through? Damn, that’s all experience points!
Haha, Wahahaha! Da Fei burst out in a hearty laugh as he instantly began reaping experience!
Under the roaring unison of the Crossbow Cannons, the panicking Demon Army on the walls either died on the spot as flesh targets or jumped into the water in terror. The only resistance for Da Fei ca from the solitary Arrow Tower on the wall. That’s right! What makes the Crossbow Cannons powerful is not just the firepower but also their range!
Although Da Fei, when facing a target with 100 Defense, sees a sharp decrease in damage from the Crossbow Cannons—according to the Artillery Emperor, one shot only delivers 60-70 points of damage. The main reason is that, as chanical units, the cannons’ attacks don’t benefit from hero Attack bonuses. Compared to ordinary troops, Da Fei’s 100 Attack negates the target’s 100 Defense, so commanding 6 Jungle Hunters can deliver the damage equivalent to one Artillery Emperor’s Crossbow Cannon. As Da Fei’s Attack increases, the damage disadvantage of the Crossbow Cannons will beco increasingly more apparent.
But that’s just a disadvantage in damage. The ultra-long range of the Crossbow Cannons and their heavy artillery piercing and repelling attributes will not be replaced by any unit type for a very long ti. However, this also served as a reminder to Da Fei that his next goal must be to improve the Crossbow Cannons. The most direct way to improve them, of course, is to continue upgrading the Cannon Empress—although their total attribute points of 50 seem remarkable compared to ordinary player troops, they are far inferior compared to the Dwarf NPCs on ships like the Fla Lord’s.
Thinking of this, Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched; perhaps the most suitable operators for the Crossbow Cannons are indeed those exaggeratedly attributed NPCs?
The next question is, can a unit type be transford into an NPC? Deirdre once could! She knows Transformation Skill, and once she transforms, she becos an NPC able to use the Teleportation Array! Little Witch Demon Isaac could too; after his soul possessed a Skeleton Soldier, the Skeleton Soldier beca an NPC!
So, theoretically, is there a possibility for the Cannon Empress to convert into an NPC? However, comparatively, those already turned into bosses, like Charming Emperor Didi and Lili, are more likely?
As Da Fei was deep in thought, he suddenly saw a group of Level 4 Banshee troops on the city wall! Da Fei’s brow twitched, suddenly recalling the special skill discovered during the competition—the Sea Soul Staff’s Banshee Demon Soul transformation, absorbing the souls of 50 regular Banshees at sea to transform into a low-level Sea Demon Soul! (See Chapter 337 "New Special Skill of the Sea Soul Staff")
Oh my god! To encounter the Banshees of the Hell Race at sea, such good fortune would likely only be found now! Otherwise, it would only be from absorbing the souls of one’s own dead Banshees, or perhaps encountering top players of the Hell Race at sea for a duel, though the latter’s likelihood is nearly zero.
So this trendous opportunity to study the Banshee Sea Soul must not be missed!
Da Fei imdiately ordered: "All Crossbow Cannons in the Gun Cabin, target the Banshee Army on the city wall at once, do not let a single one escape!"
Deirdre laughed, "Yes, master, shall we use the Incendiary Bombs and Poison Gas Bombs? That way we ensure not a single one escapes!"
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched, that’s right, the second thod to increase Crossbow Cannon damage is to utilize these bombs, though admittedly, they are a bit pricey and materials are harder to buy.
Da Fei waved a big hand: "Use them! We seek a quick battle to not give the Demon Army a chance to breathe!"
"Received!"
—Boom! Bang bang bang!! Another volley of synchronized Crossbow Cannon fire with trails of flas and eerie green smoke howled towards the city wall—Boom! The flas exploded, the poison fog soared, and extensive damage numbers splashed across the entire segnt of the wall! Facing such spectacular damage effects, those Level 1 Demon Children with only 5 Health points burst on the spot in heaps!
Da Fei’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably in shock! My god! Brother has progressed directly from the age of cold weapons to the age of firearms! The difficulty in obtaining these materials sure makes sense!
Okay! Now it’s all about the thrill!
Da Fei laughed out loud: "Catherine, steer the ship closer to the wall so the Sea Soul Staff of Selvia can fully absorb the Demon Army’s souls!"
"Received!"
And as the Flying got closer, the arrow tower on the wall stopped firing, seemingly because the gunners inside were poisoned to death?
Da Fei shook his head and sighed: "How pitiful!"
To tell the truth, considering the current state of the Flying, even if I didn’t flood, I’d still have the capability to harass it along the coast, huh? But now it’s not just harassnt, brother is here to take over the wall! With such a vast ocean acting as a natural moat for the city, defense becos no issue once brother takes over the wall; a super large city of over a hundred levels is waving
in, thank you! Haha, Wahahaha!
Amidst Da Fei’s unrestrained laughter, the Flying cruised along the lakeshore, bombarding everywhere it went, rolling up dust and smoke. This is the experience, this is the harvest of souls and territory! What language should brother use to express my exhilaration at this mont? It’s simply unstoppable!
And just then, Little Fei spotted sothing up ahead. On the city walls ahead, several players were crowded together. Weren’t these players from the Dragon Slayer Guild? Oh dear! This really gives Da Fei a headache!
That city wall was built by the Dragon Slayers, right? After fighting with Star and Dragon Slayer for so long, they should know I’m the City Lord of the Radiant City, right? When you Dragon Slayers attacked , not even a heads-up, probably too embarrassed to face , huh? Honestly, it’s awkward for
too. How should I even face you, Boss Ma? After all, Boss Ma, you did lend
10 million Gold Coins when I was in need!
Ah, well, large guilds have the style of large guilds, not swayed by personal feelings. But I’m not part of a large guild, I still have to give so face, diplomacy before actions.
Da Fei then opened his friends list and sent Ma Yinglong a ssage: "Boss Ma, there’s sothing really, really unfortunate, but I can’t help it!"
At this mont, the Dragon Slayer Command Center was dead silent, ti seemingly frozen in waiting.
Ma Yinglong, who seldom smoked, kept lighting one cigarette after another.
Everything today ca so unexpectedly. If not for that annoying Fla Demon ssing up the Demon Army’s arrangents, if not for the inexplicable Leviathan causing a flood, the situation might have still been stable. But now, the Spider Demon army has retreated to who knows where, the entire battlefield is a vast ocean, all the troops have turned into leaderless wild monsters, it’s beyond salvation now.
No, there’s still a chance! The only hope now is for the Leviathan to rush in and flatten the Radiant City too!
Finally, good news ca from the front, the Leviathan had arrived! But it was just lying outside the city wall, doing who knows what!
Ma Yinglong’s heart suddenly felt cold, thinking could Leviathan really be Da Fei’s reinforcent!? How did Da Fei manage to establish contact with Leviathan? Everything has gone beyond what a professional player could understand! Just then, Ma Yinglong’s ssage notification buzzed—it was from Da Fei!
Faced with Da Fei’s ssage, Ma Yinglong’s expression was wooden, his heart filled with mixed feelings! What the hell is this? But at this point, a loss is a loss, and it’s a terrible loss! What more could he possibly say? Wait, there’s still sothing to be said.
Ma Yinglong sighed: "Brother Fei, I’m utterly ashad! Actually, it’s not your fault, I feel bad towards you too, but as the Guild President, I must prioritize the guild’s interests. I hope Brother Fei won’t bla , let’s do what needs to be done."
Da Fei sighed: "Got a mission on , factional strife and all, bro, it’s really hard on
too! I’m so sorry to Boss Ma."
Ma Yinglong chuckled bitterly: "Brother Fei, our Dragon Slayer Guild really suffered an extre loss, especially at the crucial ti when every country is rushing to level 50, entering the New World. With this defeat, we can no longer establish ourselves in the New World. Other powers will surely take advantage of us, like Japan, definitely not giving us any chances. Anyway, I’m shalessly asking for a favor from Brother Fei, when we get to the New World, please look after us, nothing else I can say."
Holy crap! This is a matter of national pride! I took such advantage of him, and he still doesn’t turn against , what a true bro! After all these years, the Ma Yinglong who hogged bosses in internet cafes isn’t the sa anymore!
Da Fei felt deeply moved: "Boss Ma, you really know how to let things go. Alright! Bro guarantees, once we get to the New World, I’ll smash those guys from Japan and even their Arican godfathers! Anyway, Boss Ma has helped
a lot, I won’t make things difficult for you!"
Ma Yinglong perked up: "With Brother Fei’s words, I’m relieved! Since Brother Fei said so, let’s consider future developnts. Now that our battle at the Pool of Radiance is known worldwide, they’re all laughing at the infighting in China Region. Once our Dragon Slayer’s failure is exposed, other countries will widely publicize it. So, bro, I have an awkward request!"
Holy moly! Already focusing on international issues! I’m still worried about my own little patch of land!
Da Fei coughed and said: "Please tell, Brother Ma. If I can do it, there’s absolutely no problem."
Ma Yinglong seriously said: "After this incident, foreigners will definitely think Brother Fei and our Dragon Slayer have deep enmity and are irreconcilable. So, let’s intentionally display deep animosity, making foreigners think we are still engaged in infighting, then at the critical mont, unexpectedly join forces and turn the tables!"
Da Fei exclaid: "Can we really do that?"
Ma Yinglong nodded: "So, I’d like to ask Brother Fei to bear with us. After this battle, we’ll have people post in forums declaring a vendetta, all just for show. Brother Fei, are you interested in playing along with us?"
Da Fei laughed heartily: "Interesting, I’m interested! Anyway, I’m already used to being verbally attacked, not feeling wronged at all!"
Ma Yinglong let out a long breath: "Thanks, Brother Fei!"
"No worries, no worries!"
