Soaring Dragon nodded, and immediately [Flying Dragon] began imitating [Zhan Long], forming a smaller model of the iron shield wall defensive formation. Sadly, there were too few people; only 200 people remained after the last round of Warhawk attacks. The great [Flying Dragon] that had close to 7000 online players had actually been cut down until they were left with just these few people, it was unbelievable. This [City of the Ancients] update not only hid a great reward, but also brought an indescribably destructive force!
……
“Motherf*cker…..” Li Mu looked into the distance and murmured, “To think that [Flying Dragon] had managed to attract a talent like Drunken Spear, it really makes no sense. He’s calm, yet courageous. People with those qualities are far too few, not to mention the fact that Nature Knight is a hidden class with both defensive and attack capabilities. There’s barely a handful of people like that in Ba Huang City. People say that Cang Cheng is now Ba Huang City’s top knight, but when I look at Drunken Spear, all I can say is that he is far greater than Cang Cheng!”
I nodded, “Agreed. Drunken Spear has definitely surpassed Wang Ze Cheng in terms of battle strategy and teamwork; that is without a doubt true. However, since Drunken Spear’s cousin is Black Tortoise, there’s nothing else we can do. We just have to admit that blood is thicker than water. Luckily, Drunken Spear doesn’t have any particularly vengeful feelings toward [Zhan Long]; maybe in the future, we’ll have the chance to fight against mutual enemies side by side.”
“Yea!”
……
Time passed quickly. [Zhan Long]’s circular formation was like a magnet, attracting Warhawk Knights from all directions, and then killing them one by one. Although our losses were extremely heavy, the experience gained was very ample. Furthermore, they had a high chance of dropping Gold Tier equipment and even Soul Gems, which were the most important.
Soul Gems could strengthen armor and weapons, and currently the highest someone has raised an equipment to was +7, which was my Emperor Qin’s Sword. After it had been strengthened to +7, its defense and damage had risen 35%. This was a very objective problem; for rich people like Jian Feng Han, Wang Zhe Cheng and Yan Zhao Warrior, basically all of their equipment had been strengthened to at least +5. This implied that even if they used equipment with stats similar to others, they would have an additional 20% equipment stats. This was an incredibly significant difference.
In the northern part of the [City of the Ancients], over 70% of the Warhawk Knights had fallen before [Zhan Long]’s defense formation, and everyone’s levels had risen quite a bit. After this battle, Ba Huang City’s rankings had completely changed; the players who had killed the most number of BOSSes could also achieve the highest level. Now, the fight for Ba Huang City’s number one spot was between me, Jian Feng Han, Simple, and Yan Zhao Warrior.
……
We were already 50 minutes into the 9th wave, and the northern part of the [City of the Ancients] appeared to only have a few scattered Warhawk Knights; most of them had been killed, while the number of players had also decreased quite a bit. The number of players combined in the northern part of the [City of the Ancients] was less than 50000, while the total number of remaining players remaining in the event was also looking just as bleak ——
Players that have died in Battle: 1242773
Remaining Players: 175997
……
“Looks like everyone suffered heavily…..” Li Mu said as he looked at the total numbers, then smiled, “There are only 170,000 players left in the [City of the Ancients]. I don’t know what [Vanguard]’s losses are like, but didn’t Jian Feng Han boast about his 8000 elite forces? I wonder how many of those 8000 are left after rushing to battle….”
Yue Qing Qian laughed, “Give me a few seconds to go look it up….”
“Sure!”
Indeed, within two minutes, Yue Qing Qian came back and chuckled, “The results are in: [Vanguard] currently still has 2200+ players, [Prague] still has 1700+ players, [Wrath of Heroes] has 500+ players, [Flying Dragon] has 174 players, [Blood Contract] has 71 players, [Misty Palace] has 114 players, [Mass Burial] and [Winds of Battle] combined have 56 people left in total, and [Zhan Long] has 600+ players left. Hehe, only these guilds are still alive…”
Li Mu couldn’t help but laugh, “Looks like few of the big guilds remain; currently most of the 170,000 players outside of the [City of the Ancients] are either solo players or small teams whose battle powers are extremely limited. I’m even getting a little worried; can those people get past the 10th wave? Furthermore…. the 9th wave BOSS hasn’t even appeared yet….”
I gripped the Emperor Qin’s Sword and looked into the distance and smiled, “Right now… why don’t we just wait for the 9th wave BOSS to appear? It’d be great if it spawns in our direction; after all, we still have 600+ people left….”
“As you wish, Boss…
