Chapter 1505 – Arrival of Powerful Reinforcents
Thunder Island, Orc encampnt:
Level 55 and above Armored Orcs constantly patrolled the encampnt, each wielding a spear with a bow slung over their shoulder. There were also four Orcs on lookout in each of the dozens of watchtowers, who also manned the affixed ballistas, ready to assist the patrols at a mont’s notice.
“Martial, you and your group will destroy that watchtower. Everyone else, spread out; don’t stand too close to each other! Be careful not to get dragged into the ballistas’ AOEs!” Nine Dragons Emperor commanded as he watched the ballistas fire at his team.
The Orcs guarding the encampnt had ridiculously high Basic Attributes and combat standards. Even a patrol squad could pull his 120-man team into a bitter battle. The watchtowers’ cover fire was even more of a pain.
The ballistas’ fire would kill any player it struck instantly, even MTs with activated Lifesaving Skills.
To succeed, the team would have to avoid the ballista attacks at all tis.
Despite starting this raid over an hour ago, they had yet to clear out the Orcs in the periter.
“Pavilion Master, Phoenix Rain has dispatched 20 players to the cliff tower. By the looks of it, they seem to be planning sothing. Should we put so pressure on her team?” Blood Dragon reported.
“They’re finally making a move?” Nine Dragons Emperor sneered. “What’s the situation at the cliff tower?”
Raiding the monster encampnt was already more difficult than he had expected. Even after rging with Miracle’s team and ard with five stacks of the tower buff, they still struggled. Needless to say, Phoenix Rain’s team, which only controlled three towers, would have an even harder ti with the encampnts.
If Phoenix Rain and Zero Wing had dispatched a 100-man team to raid an encampnt, he could ambush towers. Moreover, Miracle had offered to send reinforcents if he attempted to steal her towers. With this developnt, he might be able to take all three towers for himself, rendering all of Phoenix Rain and Zero Wing’s effort useless.
“There doesn’t seem to be any movent at the cliff tower so far. However, there is sothing strange,” Blood Dragon said. “Based on our spies’ reports, Zero Wing seems to have found a way to bring in reinforcents. But even now, we don’t know which superpower has agreed to cooperate with their team.”
“Reinforcents?” Nine Dragons Emperor sneered. “So what if they found reinforcents? If they try to raid an encampnt, we’ll ignore the towers and attack their raid team instead. I want to see how they plan to secure a monster encampnt with dead players! Tell our scouts to continue watching them for now. Report back if anyone moves.”
It was incredibly risky to attack an ancient tower. This was especially true if Phoenix Rain’s team had truly found reinforcents. However, ambushing a raid team outside of the towers’ range would be easy.
Without the towers’ Attribute buff, taking out Phoenix Rain’s team would be a piece of cake. Even if he failed to annihilate Phoenix Rain’s raid team, getting rid of a few dozen players would be more than enough to destroy Phoenix Rain’s chances of securing a monster encampnt.
“Understood!” Blood Dragon couldn’t help his grin when he heard this. In fact, he even hoped that Phoenix Rain and Zero Wing had found reinforcents. This way, they could proudly defeat Phoenix Rain and Zero Wing’s team and restore their lost reputation.
...
As the various superpowers frantically raided monster encampnts, Phoenix Rain’s anxiety grew as she waited for the reinforcents Shi Feng had ntioned.
The other superpowers were also watching the situation carefully. They hadn’t expected Nine Dragons Emperor to be so ruthless.
“Phoenix Rain is finished. Not only did Nine Dragons Emperor deal a heavy blow to her team, but he’s also limited her options of taking action. She’ll likely fail to claim a single encampnt.”
“But the situation is strange. I never thought that Miracle would be willing to help Nine Dragons Emperor. What did Phoenix Rain do to provoke the Guild?”
“Don’t you know? Phoenix Rain didn’t provoke Miracle, but Zero Wing did. Rember the Dark Arena so ti ago? Miracle’s battle team suffered a miserable defeat at Zero Wing’s hands. I’m sure that the Guild wants to teach Zero Wing a lesson and restore its reputation.”
“Phoenix Rain sure is unlucky. If not for her cooperation with Zero Wing, she might have had a chance to secure a monster encampnt. Now that Miracle is helping Nine Dragons Emperor, she has lost all hope.”
“I know, right?”
The various superpowers expressed their sympathy for Phoenix Rain. With the woman’s tenacity, she should’ve been able to claim at least one encampnt, but due to Zero Wing, Firmant had stabbed her in the back, and Nine Dragons Emperor allied with Miracle. The events gave the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion Master an overwhelming advantage.
“Big Sis Rain, I’ve just received a report stating that the Sacred Temple, Battle Wolves, Miracle, King’s Return, and Nine Heavens Pavilion have captured their first monster encampnts and are preparing to raid their second. If we don’t hurry, it’ll be too late to do anything,” Blue Phoenix said anxiously.
Based on the information they had gathered, the monster encampnts were far more challenging than they had anticipated. anwhile, the contest was nearly half over. If they didn’t take action soon, with only three ancient towers under their control, they might not have enough ti to capture a monster encampnt.
Even Nine Dragons Emperor had begun his fight with the final Guardian Boss in his first encampnt.
“I understand, but we don’t have the power to make a move before the reinforcents arrive,” Phoenix Rain said, sighing helplessly.
Nine Dragons Emperor had a huge nurical advantage, and he was even willing to give up so of his manpower to station teams on standby to steal their towers. If they tried to raid a monster encampnt, she had no doubt that Nine Dragons Emperor would attack without hesitation.
Thinking up to this point, Phoenix Rain contacted Shi Feng once more.
“Team Leader Ye Feng, what is the situation?” Phoenix Rain asked. “Quite a few Guilds have begun to raid their second encampnt.”
“We’re almost there,” Shi Feng said, chuckling when he noticed Phoenix Rain’s anxiety. “Give another ten minutes, and we’ll have 49 more players.”
“Forty-nine?” At first, Phoenix Rain celebrated the news of Shi Feng’s return, but her joy faded after hearing Shi Feng’s final statents.
Although he was returning with quite a few players, an additional 49 team mbers wouldn’t change their situation. Even with these 49 players, there was still a massive gap between her manpower and Nine Dragon Emperor’s.
“Relax. The people with are quite powerful,” Shi Feng assured Phoenix Rain.
“I’ll leave it to you, then.” Although Shi Feng had tried to reassure her, Phoenix Rain didn’t have much hope for Shi Feng’s plan, but she was resigned to see it through. If they failed, she’d have no choice but to grit her teeth and negotiate with either the Sacred Temple or Battle Wolves.
After Shi Feng disconnected the call, Blackie snickered and said, “Guild Leader, she doesn’t seem to have much confidence in you.”
“That’s normal. After all, our current situation is problematic,” Shi Feng said nonchalantly. “When we arrive, make sure you give it your all.”
“Rest assured, Guild Leader! Not even capturing two or three encampnts will be a problem, let alone the first!” Shadow Sword confidently declared.
After entering the Legacy Space, Shadow Sword had pushed through nurous trials and finally reached the Refinent Realm. He was also a Tier 2 player now. He itched to display is newfound prowess.
Fire Dance, Turtledove, Ye Wumian, Violet Cloud, Flying Shadow, Rampant Blade, Minor Wind, and Zero Wing’s other core mbers couldn’t help but laugh.
As the team chatted rrily, the One-horned Sailboat finally reached the edge of Thunder Island.
The One-horned Sailboat’s reappearance shocked the surrounding players, but Shi Feng ignored the stares as he stored the sailboat and used the Thunder Emblem to teleport the team to Thunder Island.
