Chapter 908 - Kamikaze Drakes (1/2)
Nie Yan and company were like a giant meat grinder. Wherever they passed, blood and flesh rained down from the sky.
Angel Corps and Asskickers United fell into a killing frenzy. Neither side was willing to tolerate the existence of the other.
The spectators on the ground were now scrambling for Life Cores. Bodies rained down from the sky. Every corpse of a flying mount contained a precious Life Core. It would be strange if it didn’t attract any attention.
The entire Righteous Faction had their focus on this single battle.
“Boss, our main force has suffered over 300 casualties already!” Paladin of the Elegy reported. They only had 1,000 flying mounts to begin with. Losing nearly a third of their force was a massive blow.
“Angel Corps isn’t faring much better. We’ve killed 500 of theirs!” Bladelight chimed in. Angel Corps’ losses were even worse than Asskickers United’s. However, they still held the advantage in numbers. It was hard to say who would win this battle.
The battle intensified. Nie Yan and company were tearing through Angel Corps’ ranks, when someone shouted in voice chat,「Look east! It’s the reinforcements from Fallen Angel! They’re here!」
Nie Yan shot a glance toward the east and saw a large group of flying mounts heading in this direction. He faintly smiled. It was Fallen Angel. They were finally here! Looking at their numbers, he estimated there were at least 4,000 flying mounts!
Bones as white as shale. Those were all undead flying mounts!
The leader of the group was riding a Rank 8 Bone Dragon. It was none other than Proud Lance who Nie Yan had met several times in the past. Plenty didn’t come personally. He had to preside over the guild matters in the underworld.
Fallen Angel was the absolute ruler of the Undead Empire. After carrying out their operations there for so long, they had created a rock solid foundation. Their strength was not to be looked down on.
Fallen Angel’s appearance immediately caused an uproar among the players in the City of Sin.
“It’s the Undead Empire!”
“That must be Fallen Angel! What’s going on? Is the Undead Empire attacking the Righteous Faction?”
Many players unaware of the situation thought Fallen Angel was coming to take advantage of the situation. Only a few who were in the knowhow understood Fallen Angel were actually Asskickers United’s reinforcements!
A total of 4,000 flying mounts, half of which were Rank 6. This was a force capable of turning the tide of battle!
Mass hysteria began to spread across the ranks of Angel Corps. They all knew Fallen Angel was their sworn enemy. Once Fallen Angel and Asskickers United joined forces, all that awaited them was complete annihilation!
「Boss, enemy reinforcements are arriving!」
「There are too many of them!」
「Boss, the Rank 9 Darkwing Dragon is too strong! We can’t stop it!」
...
Soaring Angel’s heart sunk. He said in a low growl,「Everyone, retreat 2,000 meters, and adjust your ranks while we prepare for round two! Reinforcements from the Century Financial Group and Pantheon are almost here. Asskickers United isn’t the only one with allies!」
The forces of Angel Corps beat a quick retreat. The main group and off-shoot group looked like two oriental dragons flying through the sky. After retreating far enough, they merged back into one. Even though they were retreating, they still defended their backs, preventing Asskickers United from running all over them. The only exception was the Rank 9 Darkwing Dragon, who they could do nothing about. It tore a large whole out of their ranks, with more than 15 flying mounts dying unders its claws.
Nie Yan shot out web-lines to catch the heads of the flying mounts the Darkwing Dragon ripped off. After extracting their Life Cores, he would throw them away. Like this, he obtained dozens of Life Cores. The darkness attribute ones he fed to the Darkwing Dragon.
The blood-soaked Darkwing Dragon was like a demon god. Wherever it went, blood and entrails rained down from the sky. The enemy flying mounts fled in fear.
Soaring Angel ordered his guild members to stay as far away from the Darkwing Dragon as possible and focus on killing the rest of the flying mounts from Asskickers United. Only like this could they give themselves the time to think of a method of dealing with the Darkwing Dragon without having to worry about anyone interfering.
