Chapter 514: Retreat, Who Is This Person?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Players from all corners witnessed the terrifying prowess of a player named Ji Chen.
In the wake of the Wasteland Guild’s abandonment of tens of thousands of troops in the grasslands and abandoned towns, the number of corpses doubled once again. Tens of thousands of resentful spirits swirled overhead, emitting bitter cries.
This left everyone puzzled.
Who was this person, really?
Pando watched as another wave of over ten thousand troops from the Jungle Guild entered the town but not a single one came out. His face twisted with shock and rage.
“That bastard, Zunong, he knew all along that Ji Chen wasn’t easy to deal with. He didn’t even warn me before!”
“Motherfucker, does he want to weaken my strength with this method, so they can secure the position of the top guild in the Kingdom of Bass? That’s despicable!!”
Watching Pando curse and grumble, his confidant standing nearby couldn’t help but feel speechless. After all, the Wasteland Guild had been attacking for a full two days without success, so it was quite obvious that this wasn’t an easy opponent…
Although he thought this way, he wisely refrained from saying it out loud.
He asked, “Boss, it’s only been a day, and we’ve lost nearly a hundred thousand troops. But there’s no sign of weakness on their side. If we keep going like this, we might not even succeed in taking them down even if we use up our entire army. Should we… continue?”
“Of course! Why wouldn’t we continue!?” Pando had the appearance of a stubborn man who would see things through to the end. He gritted his teeth and said, “Motherfucker, if we withdraw like this, wouldn’t that mean we have wasted so many troops for nothing?
Besides, Ji Chen isn’t invincible. 1 refuse to believe we can’t deal with him!”
Pando had been in this world for a long time and never encountered an independent player with such incredible strength. Those units of fifth-tier troops, each consisting of a thousand people, were incredibly intimidating. He even thought he might have encountered a figure like the Islander.
However, even though he lost so many troops, he couldn’t afford not to continue the battle. He just talked to that little rascal Zunong earlier, telling him that they would take over, but to say they couldn’t hold out after just one day was like slapping himself in the face.
Blood could be shed, but pride could not be lost.
Just as Pando was thinking of sending more troops to attack, someone suddenly privately messaged him.
Taking a closer look, his eyes widened.
What the hell?
Several hours later, when Pando, the leader of the Jungle Guild, angrily left after throwing his troops into yet another attack and achieving no results, the onlookers were in an uproar.
With the Wasteland Guild in front and the Jungle Guild behind, both major guilds had been defeated by a player named Ji Chen. This was a rare occurrence.
Some players knew better than to persist and chose to withdraw, despite the tempting bounty. They understood that it required the capability to claim it. They stood by and watched.
However, some small guilds and independent players were not willing to give up. They wanted to verify it for themselves. Yet, when they sent what they considered powerful troops into the abandoned town, none of them returned. They were left dumbfounded and shouted in frustration.
This was too outrageous. How could a mere few thousand troops stop them?
Just when they were at a loss, fifty kilometers away in Feiguang City.
The flames of war once again spread across this land. Hundreds of cannonballs soared high into the sky, bypassing the city walls and wreaking havoc on the recently repaired fortifications. A sky filled with arrows accompanied by the sound of breaking wind pierced through flesh.
Soldiers of the Kingdom of Bass surged forward like a tide, intent on devouring all living beings within the city.
As Russell watched the city, increasingly on the brink of collapse under the onslaught of the large army, the wicked grin on his face became more pronounced, and his mood grew even more exhilarated.
This is the fate of those who oppose him.
No one could stop them from conquering Feiguang City, from laying waste to the Lienhardt Grand Duchy!
After annihilating Lienhardt, they would continue to march against the other two nations along the northwest coast, unifying this land completely, fulfilling the great ambition left unaccomplished by their predecessors. Russell, in this glorious vision of the future, would rise to unprecedented prominence!
Russell seemed to have already envisioned this bright future. He drew his long sword and pointed it forward, shouting with authority.
“Spread my command! The Second Pegasus Knight Squad, advance! Use alchemical bombs to assist our allies in breaching the city walls!”
With that order, a squad of a thousand Pegasus Knights quickly took flight from the camp, flapping their wings as they soared over the breached section of the city walls, dropping alchemical bombs onto the defending forces.
This became the final straw that broke the camel’s back. The raised earthworks and the soldiers guarding the breached city wall crumbled as the alchemical bombs exploded, creating numerous holes. Countless soldiers of the Kingdom of Bass swarmed in like wild beasts, ferociously attacking.
On the other side, the city gate on the western wall finally succumbed to the relentless bombardment and explosions. It collapsed with a thunderous crash, and the soldiers of the Kingdom of Bass flooded in like locusts, engaging in a furious battle with the city’s defenders.
In the eyes of the defenders, Feiguang City had become like a faint candlelight in a storm, extinguishing at any moment.
Despair and helplessness flickered in the eyes of Sylvansai on the city wall.
Feiguang City was destined to fall…
Russell burst into wild laughter, mocking the feeble resistance of the enemy.
At this moment, a squad of giant eagle archers from the direction of the Kingdom of Bass arrived, bearing a letter from the king. They landed in the military camp.
Soon, a roar filled with bitterness and anger echoed from within the camp, as Russell received the king’s letter..
