Chapter 260: Chapter 255 Scare
But if he wanted to sign a contract with a guardian in Heroes’ Prison, he first had to plant a War Flag. Only with guild territory could he enter into a contract. However, the mont the War Flag was planted, it would trigger a regional announcent. Everyone around would know about it, and they would all co to attack the War Flag. He then couldn’t leave its side, for without protection, the War Flag would be lost. Moreover, once Black Wolf arrived, it wouldn’t just be the War Flag that would be in danger, but his own life would also be at stake.
Now, Huang Yi didn’t have much ti left. Guifu Heilang, the expert from Holy Domain, would catch up and start hunting him down in less than fifteen minutes!
He could only seize Dragon City in these few precious minutes!
As Huang Yi surveyed the city for a suitable flag planting spot, he pondered his options.
After so searching, Huang Yi arrived at the central plaza of Dragon City, a vast square bustling with crowds. At the center of the plaza stood a tall Magic Tower, the city’s defense tower, which could activate a City Defense Barrier when needed to protect the city. However, with the infrastructure of Dragon City destroyed, the Magic Tower had also been disabled, its magic facilities demolished and left abandoned.
After so thought, Huang Yi decided to plant the flag on top of the tower. To reach the top of the Magic Tower, one would either have to fly or climb up the staircase. But since the tower was very tall, climbing would take so ti, which might give him a slight advantage.
Next, Huang Yi transford into the highly agile Spirit Cat and used the exotic skill "Shadow Dance" to vanish from sight. He quickly made his way through the crowd and into the tower without being noticed by anyone.
Then, reverting to human form, he began to climb the dark tower at the speed of a regular player, timing his ascent from the bottom to the top.
One minute later, Huang Yi reached the top of the tower and stood before the railing, overlooking the whole of Dragon City.
At that mont, with thousands of lights twinkling, each house and person beneath him beca clear, and the distant hum of commotion filled the air with a worldly vibe.
His brow furrowed slightly. It would only take a player one minute to climb from the bottom to the top — clearly not enough ti. If he had just one or two more minutes, he was confident that he could plant the War Flag, promptly open Heroes’ Prison, grab the key, and sign a contract with a criminal to guard the War Flag.
There was another thod: to release the incarnation of a criminal first, causing havoc in Dragon City, then quickly plant the flag and enter Heroes’ Prison to find a guardian.
However, this approach introduced too many uncontrollable factors. Once the criminal’s incarnation was released, it would act without the control of its main body, driven by primal combat instincts. Nobody could predict what it would do next, likely even destroying the Magic Tower!
Huang Yi rapidly considered his options, thod after thod flashing through his mind as he assessed the risks.
The ti he had left was quickly running out. Black Wolf rembered his scent and could catch up at any mont!
"Boom!" Just then, a deafening burst of destruction ca from the direction of the city wall in the East City District.
A section of the wall had been forcibly breached, kicking up clouds of dust as people’s screams carried from afar.
Huang Yi focused his gaze in that direction, only to see through the dust cloud on the rubble of the wall a tall, fierce figure slowly erging. The shadow had a wolf’s head, no arms, and only a pair of legs.
It looked up at the Magic Tower where Huang Yi was, its cold murderous intent bridging the vast distance and enveloping him.
Black Wolf had finally arrived!
At that mont, though Black Wolf had no hands and the huge axe was nowhere to be seen — probably kept in a storage ring — its aura was still incredibly nacing. Its thundering voice reached Huang Yi from afar, "Instakill, this ti I won’t let you escape! Do you think you’re safe hiding in that Magic Tower?"
His voice, laden with barely contained rage, echoed throughout Dragon City like rolling thunder!
"Black Wolf is here, run for it!"
"Little Ya, we need to log off quickly!"
"Instakill is actually hiding on top of this Magic Tower? This place will be leveled soon, we need to run!"
Hearing Black Wolf’s voice, the square beneath the Magic Tower erupted into panic; so players were dashing away in all directions, hastily fleeing the area, while others logged off imdiately, escaping the crisis entirely.
With the arrival of Black Wolf, Dragon City seed as fragile as if it were made of paper.
Soon, the entire square had beco utterly deserted, not a single player could be seen, while the Black Wolf step by step walked this way, causing houses to collapse and the earth to quake wherever it went; no one could stop it!
...
anwhile, on the periphery of the distant Skeleton Ocean, the leader of the Wind Kingdom Guild, Icewind Water Soul, imdiately gathered his subordinates to begin a full-force breakout towards Dragon City, with the guild called Dao also joining in this breakout. These two guilds, with a combined force of 200,000 people, plunged into the Skeleton Ocean like a sharp blade. They were all elite troops, far stronger than the ragtag bunch from Dragon City who had been trapped for months; their advance was incredibly fast!
"Everyone, pick up the pace. If Instakill managed to escape by luck, then the top experts of our two guilds will all target and attack him. Since the zerg rush tactic is ineffective against him, we’ll use the elite tactic instead," called out a mage in his mid-twenties, wearing a white robe. He was the leader of the Wind Kingdom Guild, Icewind Water Soul, a top expert at level 63 himself, a Rare Class who excelled at ice and wind attributes, and his strength was enormous!
"Right, when the top experts from our two guilds unite, even Dao Feng would find it difficult to gain an upper hand, let alone Instakill," a five-to-six-ter tall stone giant also bellowed from the crowd. His na was Shi Lei, the leader of the other guild, Dao, and he was a player of both a Rare Race and Rare Class.
At this mont, the two guilds had temporarily joined forces, deciding to deal with Instakill first, to eliminate this unpredictable elent before considering the occupation of Dragon City.
On another front, the Undying Guild had not made any moves, still observing the situation.
At this ti, the brothers Unbeaten and Nonexistence were gazing at the distant, bustling Skeleton Ocean, watching as the two guilds delved deeper and deeper.
"Brother, we’ve reached the most critical mont. We have to do sothing now. If we keep watching like this, we’ll just be onlookers with no strategic significance," Nonexistence said decisively.
"Black Wolf, Instakill, Wind Kingdom, Dao... The situation is getting more and more complicated!" Unbeaten muttered to himself, then turned to Nonexistence, "Let’s blow this thing wide open, have our people start a live stream on the forum imdiately, and make this widely known. If Instakill fails, his reputation will take a hit, and so will his Hero Guild. If the two guilds from the Wind Kingdom fail, their reputation will suffer as well. In any case, letting them fight like dogs, one side will be affected, which is good news for us."
"Alright!" Nonexistence imdiately nodded and sent a ssage to his subordinates.
A minute later, a live stream thread about the Dragon City situation appeared on the forum, and soon after, a tide of forum posters pushed the thread to the front page, drawing the community’s attention in the shortest ti possible.
And the public’s attention was indeed swiftly captured, as Huang Yi had been out of the lilight for a month since the annual festival, and this was the first ti he had reappeared before the public!
This live stream, like igniting a keg of gunpowder, attracted players from both the Kingdom of Wind and within Dragon City, who loved a good spectacle, to participate in the live stream, broadcasting everything happening before them to the forum in real-ti.
From every angle and perspective, the scope of the crisis gradually unfolded, drawing more and more people’s attention!
Huang Yi, once again, beca the center of public attention!
...
"Transform into White Dragon!" Huang Yi stood atop the Magic Tower, gazing at the Black Wolf, and a risky idea suddenly sprang into his mind.
His body transford instantly, taking on the imposing form of the White Dragon, coiled atop the high tower with a sort of disdainful air!
"White Dragon King, co forth! Today, we will claim the Black Wolf’s life too! These two Wolf Claws are far from enough!" Huang Yi shouted loudly, his voice echoing throughout Dragon City. Then, he took out the two Wolf Claws from his storage ring and shook them slightly in the air!
These Wolf Claws were exactly what his incarnation had obtained from the White Dragon King at Bai Long Lake two days ago. Since the incarnation and the original body shared a storage ring, he could now imdiately take them out. The aning in his words was purely to confuse; the White Dragon King wasn’t here at all, he just wanted to frighten the Black Wolf.
Sure enough, upon hearing the words "White Dragon King," the Black Dragon shrank, stopped in its tracks, and looked around cautiously. When it saw the two Wolf Claws in Huang Yi’s hands, its body trembled; those were its own claws, which the White Dragon King had broken off!
The next mont, the Black Wolf turned in terror and fled wildly, a terrible guess arising in its mind: Huang Yi’s transformation into the White Dragon indicated a close relationship with the White Dragon King, and since he indeed held its own claws, it ant that the White Dragon King was most likely here, perhaps ready to ambush it! With its current severe injuries, facing the White Dragon King ant certain death!
"This Instakill is truly cunning, plotting to trap ! Damn Icewind Water Soul, leading
right into the trap!" the Black Wolf cursed as it fled, directing all its resentnt towards Icewind Water Soul.
The Black Wolf’s speed was incredibly fast, like a wisp of smoke, smashing through the Skeleton Ocean, soon reaching the horizon and crushing a path of Skeletons beneath it.
After running for a while, the Black Wolf glanced back and, seeing no one in pursuit, finally breathed a sigh of relief; though it could not defeat the White Dragon King in a fight, when it ca to fleeing, the White Dragon King was no match for its speed.
