My Misfortune Crushe Chapter 314: Divine Thunder Fails

Chapter 314: Chapter 314: Divine Thunder Fails

"Ritual elder, we should attack another city gate; the east gate is too heavily guarded!"

The Witch Pheasant Race leader said: "Hmm... gather the troops for another assault. I won’t hold back on mana this ti, using the Witch Feather Spirit Array to block the rain of arrows. We’ll surely succeed this ti."

Previously, the three tribes aid to conserve their living forces. Whenever a rain of arrows appeared, they would imdiately retreat, attacking for half a day and charging two rounds but never made any breakthrough.

Upon hearing the ritual elder’s words, the leader proposing the idea disagreed sowhat but couldn’t argue, so he had to follow orders.

He heard so rumors, suggesting that their leader had so minor disagreents with the outsiders. Having boasted about attacking through the east gate without relying on external aid, he didn’t want to give up easily.

He looked back at the Heroic City, unsure whether the assault on the other side had proceeded.

...

Xu Xiliang rubbed his eyes, struggling to understand what he saw.

Shooting stars are undoubtedly strong, he knew that, but these two working together are overwhelmingly powerful, aren’t they?

Though the four great witches weren’t as powerful as the City Patrol Generals, they weren’t too far off. Yet Cheng Mingyue’s control and Li Rui’s fierce assault made eliminating the two Great Witches as effortless as drinking water.

He pondered, realizing that over the years, the frequency of World Overlaps in the Secret Realm seed to have increased, and NPC activities had beco more frequent while newcors beca stronger.

In Dragon Country alone, four rare extraordinaries suddenly erged, including the likes of Guan Gui and Dong Sanchuan—similar situations unfolded in two other big countries.

Xu Xiliang felt old, unable to keep up with the young ones’ fighting thods.

"Captain Xu, what are you doing? Hurry up and join the loot-sharing!"

Li Rui called out, snapping him out of his thoughts.

Another two revived Great Witches were taken down—one Spirit Body, one Undead—the good news was that Li Rui got six Fine Gold coins, the bad news was no usable equipnt.

"You sure are unlucky."

Cheng Mingyue teased, "There’s been a total of six bosses; we took down five, yet only one was usable by you."

Li Rui shrugged: "Can’t help it; my equipnt is just too good."

His early epic gear was all sourced from proxy players, specially selected for his needs, while later Soul Bone Pendant was versatile, usable by anyone.

Plus, with abundant enhancent materials, he could upgrade his gear to match his level, without needing to swap for sothing less fitting.

He didn’t need any equipnt, and the other two glanced at Xu Xiliang, who waved them off: "I can’t accept; I didn’t contribute much."

Li Rui and Cheng Mingyue eliminated the Great Witches with just one move apiece, whereas all Xu could do was kill small monsters from behind.

Xu Xiliang realized it was intentional, avoiding putting him in a tough spot.

Still, without much effort contributed, he genuinely felt embarrassed to take more.

Li Rui said: "Alright, since Sister Yue can’t use these items either, let’s exchange them back for contribution points."

The two casually made the decision and left the last Great Witch’s residence.

"Only the Witch Demon King is left."

Li Rui looked at the palace in the north of Ghost City. "This Witch Demon King seems tougher, we need to act fast."

Cheng Mingyue frowned: "Did we forget sothing?"

"What?"

"Nevermind, let’s deal with the Witch Demon King first."

They tossed their unwanted equipnt into the Giant Warrior’s basket and headed towards the Witch Demon King’s palace, having long forgotten about another Demon Race group attacking the east gate.

Xu Xiliang glanced back; ashes floated along the path they ca from, known only to him how many Undead and living corpses they slaughtered.

.....

A city gate left open seed more terrifying than when it was shut.

Li Rui stood before the palace that used to belong to the City Lord, feeling eerie, especially within the dark, deep gate, where unknown dangers lay hidden.

"There ought to be sothing worthwhile, right?"

He sincerely felt that battling alongside soone like Cheng Mingyue was truly comforting, as she always made the most appropriate moves at the right ti.

So far, their team hadn’t faced any overly tricky threats in this city, with the only formidable City Patrol General already taken down by their ultimate moves.

Xu Xiliang hesitated montarily, feeling compelled to offer youthful advice from a senior’s perspective.

"Truth is, with you two as our camp’s top combat strength, you can focus solely on clearing this place, hence the perceived simplicity. But drawing in players from the other two big countries or so formidable characters from chaotic lands, it won’t be as easy."

Cheng Mingyue remarked: "Captain Xu is right; we encircle Wangze State, preventing their infiltration, hence the ease."

Li Rui remained indifferent: "We’ll address future concerns later. Let’s head inside first. The command center expects us back; arriving late is against discipline."

You knew all along!

Xu Xiliang internally retorted.

As he mused, watching the two already enter through the palace’s main door, he quickly followed.

Used to be that the Witch City Lord ruled this major city and the surrounding Demon Race tribes from this palace.

According to the Witch Crow tribe, the City Lord was not a diocre monarch, for during his reign, different tribes peacefully developed without much conflict or war.

Had it not been for East Wangze State’s impoverishnt, it might have beco the foremost power on the giant island.

While in the outer city, Li Rui was skeptical about this claim, as despite the four Great Witches and City Patrol Ghost General being formidable, their power seed lacking.

However, upon entering the palace, his perspective shifted.

Within the first hall stood twelve statues, each two ters tall, wielding various long weapons and towering over the intruders.

Just seeing these statues, Li Rui inexplicably recalled the Upper Realm Thunder Division’s heavenly soldiers and Divine Generals.

He felt a familiarity but couldn’t pinpoint exactly why.

Before pondering further, what was expected happened—the statues all ca to life.

"It’s so witchcraft anchoring souls within the statues."

Xu Xiliang, experienced as he was, quickly understood, "I can’t locate the core; if needed, let’s smash them all."

Li Rui grinned: "That’s my specialty."

Activating his Divine Thunder Heart Sutra, he charged towards the nearest statue wielding a long blade, launching Thunder Shocking Earth.

The Vajra Umbrella clashed against the Stone Blade, resulting in a familiar frenzy, as golden Divine Thunder seeped into the Evil Qi-encased statue body, seemingly mirroring the earlier battles’ pattern, yet sothing unexpected occurred.

The invincible Divine Thunder in Ghost City surprisingly failed, with the statue’s surrounding Evil Qi montarily quivering under the lightning, only to rapidly intensify.
