Chapter 555: Forming an AllianceEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine had not been negotiating for long when shocking news broke out in the world channel.
The Iron Alliance and the Whole of Windcloud (an alliance by the Windcloud Clan) had ford a foreign land alliance working towards commonwealth.
Many were dumbstruck once the word got out.
It had not been a few weeks since Brother Windcloud Nine last led many to attack the Invincible Continent yet suddenly out of the blue, the two parties went from mortal enemies to allies?
Why the sudden change?
For a mont, the change beca a subject of great comnt and impassioned debate. Naturally, the most popular version was the two guys sharing a girl rumor...
It was not easy to form a foreign land alliance as it required both parties to maintain order by avoiding killings and disputes from happening between them. This was easier said than done.
However, the alliance was a foregone conclusion and Brother Windcloud Nine made the decision with Li Yi without Windcloud Overlord present.
The Whole of Windcloud players were hot with emotion. There were those who supported the alliance as the Iron Alliance’s influence was an obvious fact to all and they would be at an advantage being part of that force.
Of course, there were those who were against it. The reason was simple — They had never forgotten the losses they sustained from previous battles. They had made up their mind that the Iron Alliance was their mortal enemy. How could they accept the alliance when they had not yet paid back the favor?
Just as Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine signed and formally announced the alliance treaty, over three thousand radical mbers of the Whole of Windcloud stord into the Castellan’s residence to hurl verbal abuse at Li Yi.
"Old Nine, you being friends with Dark Wing has nothing to do with us. An alliance is such a huge deal and with Overlord absent, nobody has the say. I admit that the Windcloud Clan couldn’t reach its current level without you, but the guild belongs to everyone, not you alone!"
The person reproaching Brother Windcloud Nine was a veteran of the Windcloud Clan, Windcloud Hand.
Brother Windcloud Nine did not offer any explanation and simply waved his arm, "Hand, take your n and leave."
Windcloud Hand was infuriated, "Brother Nine, please explain to our brothers. Even if we must quit the guild, we won’t rest until you do!"
"Explain? What’s there to explain? The Iron Alliance is an ally, not our enemy. This is my explanation. Are you happy now? Leave now if you are!"
"No!"
The over three thousand people shouted in unison. They had always regarded the Iron Alliance as their sworn enemy and wanted nothing to do with them except for getting revenge. How could they ever seek vengeance now that they were allies?
"So, what do you want to do now? Quit the guild? Great, Hand, say the word and I’ll allow you to quit!" Brother Windcloud Nine may always be all laughs and unassuming but when it was ti to speak up, his words still held rit.
Windcloud Hand was taken aback but decided to quit the guild and strode off.
In the end, all three thousand n decided to quit. There were a few who, prior to their departure, spat at Li Yi in frustration.
Li Yi smiled, "Brother Nine, there seems to be quite a resistance here."
"Don’t bother with them. Once it blows over, it’ll set their minds at rest."
Li Yi lingered for a while before taking his leave of Brother Windcloud Nine. He climbed onto Onyxia and flew to the sky.
He had on him a Reusable Teleportation Stone. He could just rub on it to imdiately return to the Invincible Continent, but that was not his plan. He still has sothing important to attend to here.
"He’s here! He’s here!"
"Go go go!"
"Don’t let him get away this ti!"
The Western Continent players who long considered Li Yi an eyesore imdiately lay siege on him when Li Yi was out of Light City’s range. Onyxia may be quick but with his enemies prepared and lying in waiting everywhere, he was bound to bump into them no matter which direction he flew.
Szh! Szh!
Two green arrows were first shot at him. The attacker was a familiar face, the Orange Quality Bow Archer God, Shoot Until Daybreak.
Compared to half a year ago, Shoot Until Daybreak had improved a lot, both in terms of his skills and his equipnt. The thing that caught Li Yi by surprise was the Orange Quality Bow in his hands.
The appearance of the bow in Shoot Until Daybreak’s hands could not compare to his but it was definitely an Orange Quality Bow. He just had not unlocked as many seals as he did.
Had the Orange Quality Bow Archer God of the past life, returned?
"Roar—"
Onyxia raised her claw to whack the poisonous arrows away.
"Dark Wing, you can’t escape this ti!"
Shoot Until Daybreak’s words signaled for thousands of attacks on Li Yi...
Before Li Yi ascended into the sky, there were at least ten thousand Western Continent players suspended in the air. They had one thing on their mind and that was to stall him.
Among the ten thousand Western Continent players, an expert like Shoot Until Daybreak could be found everywhere. Basically, there was a huge turnout of Western Continent elites.
Amid the growing tension from incoming attacks, Onyxia who was a bundle of nerves, took a deep breath in and was about to spew Dragon’s Breath in retaliation. anwhile, Li Yi who was riding on her back, maintained a calm composure. Just as the attacks drew close, Li Yi smiled and waved to everyone around him.
"Bye bye!"
Tst—
In the next second, Li Yi, together with the dragon, mysteriously disappeared...
"F*ck?"
"What’s going on? Where did he go?"
"He went offline?"
"F*ck ..."
The Western Continent players flung abuse in anger.
...
In a flash of white light, Li Yi appeared in a wasteland.
He managed to escape using a Random Teleportation Scroll. Of course, he did not possess the sa mad ability to log off during combat like Feng Xi...
Onyxia still had flas in her mouth. She looked around before gently spitting it on the ground.
There were no monsters here. It was a safe place.
"Unsolid Ground. This Random Teleportation Scroll sure saved
a lot of ti."
Li Yi mumbled to himself and dismissed Onyxia. He walked towards a cave in the distance.
He did not leave using the Reusable Teleportation Stone because he had sothing to do. Coincidently, the matter he needed to attend to was in Unsolid Ground.
Unsolid Ground was an alternate level-grinding spot in the Western Continent. It was a default Level 80 map, but it was rare to find monsters spawning in this map.
Li Yi walked towards the cave and fired a few arrows in there. He opted for Fla Arrows and fired five of them, consuming 5 points of Fla Energy.
"Ouuuuuu... Wuuuuu..."
The dark cave lit up as strange wails were heard coming from the inside. The ground trembled as the rumbling sounds grew clearer.
Li Yi swiftly retreated and about ten seconds later, dozens of spirit monsters sward out of the cave.
The supposed spirit monsters knew no race as they varied in sorts, either in human and animal forms. However, they all had one thing in common — their bodies were half-transparent and had no legs. They hovered in midair.
"Wuuuu..."
At the sight of Li Yi, the spirit monsters scrambled towards him.
Li Yi activated Rocket Propellant to hastily widen the gap between the monsters as he ran towards another nearby cave.
"Szh! Szh! Szh..."
Another 5 Fla Arrows were fired in there, stirring the sa commotion as before. Soon, dozens of spirit monsters ca running out of there.
Li Yi kited these monsters while replicating the sa set pattern in other caves. Ten minutes later, the number of spirit monsters still in the race has reached over 500.
The grand spirit army of various shapes and forms gave threatening gestures as they tailed closely behind Li Yi without signs of slowing down.
Li Yi leaped and evaded, dodging to the left and right. If flying mounts were used in this wasteland, the spirit monsters could not be kited, while if he were to use land mounts the spirit monsters would not be able to keep up.
Another ten minutes had passed and the spirit army behind Li Yi had now increased to above 1,500.
Almost there!
Initiating Wind Shield’s Protection, Li Yi accelerated a few steps ahead and climbed onto the summoned Onyxia to unleash Orange Quality Bow’s special skill, Blazing Fields.
Onyxia took a deep breath in and spewed Dragon’s Breath at the spirit army.
Under the double attack, the 1,500 spirits quickly turned to ashes.
A normal attack would not be able to harm a spirit. Only flas possessed the ability to vanquish them.
Li Yi took a break after his easy win against 1,500 spirits. He dismissed Onyxia and continued to towards the next cave.
Kite, amass, kill!
Three hours later, Li Yi was still repeating the sa steps. His kill combo has reached 8,975 spirits.
Up in the sky, a Western Continent player on a white griffin was hiding in the clouds and secretly recording Li Yi’s strategy. Li Yi was completely unaware of this.
"Blazing Fields!
"Let out Raging Breath 5 seconds later..."
With another batch of spirits taken care of, Li Yi’s kill combo had reached 10,232.
Finally, it was enough!
Li Yi let out a long sigh of relief and crossed his legs on the ground to recover. The recovery of Fla Energy was incredibly slow and only by sitting cross-leggedly in ditation, could the speed be accelerated.
Rumble! Tumble!
The ground began to shake, prompting the spirits who were provoked by Li Yi earlier to wail in response. Countless spirit creatures made their way out of the cave.
The numbers were a great shock as the area was packed with spirits no matter where Li Yi looked.
Li Yi jumped up and summoned Violent Bear King.
With his Fla Energy Gauge having recovered less than 20 points, he could not even unleash the lowest level of Blazing Fields. He had to rely on his arrow skills now.
"God Mode!"
Letting out a huge shout, the Hunter Goddess flew out of Orange Quality Bow. She was no longer just a visual image, but a physical existence. Although she was unable to maintain such a state for a long ti, the power she could lend Li Yi was doubled.
The Hunter Goddess held Li Yi from behind as she spread her wings and flew towards the sky.
Li Yi tore a Fla Shower Scroll and consud a bottle of Spring Mana to launch rapid attacks.
"Elimination Arrow! Elimination Arrow! Elimination Arrow..."
The spirits below were defenseless against Li Yi’s arrows as they dropped to the ground one by one.
