Chapter 1547: Cyan Frost’s Death

Ding!

System Announcement: Attention all players, player "Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand" (China) killed the JGL Hall of Famer "Purple Thunder" (Japan) and obtained 10% of their contribution points, 111,721 points!

……

Purple Thunder was dead, but instead of pressing me Cyan Frost chose to flew away instead. She looked back resentfully and uttered, "Just you wait, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand! We’ll destroy you eventually!"

I didn’t say anything. I had killed Purple Thunder and defeated both Red Maple and Cyan Frost up until this point. What else did they have that could possibly repel me? The Dragon Cannon? If that was their plan, then all I could say is that it wasn’t quite enough…

Thud thud thud…

I resumed flying while arrows, God Devil Breaks, Galaxy Storms and more continued to strike me. By the time I got close to the ramparts, my HP had fallen past the 40% mark. I immediately yelled in the party channel, "Little Gui?!"

"I am here!" Gui Guzi laughed as a pair of bloody wings expanded behind his back. He activated Shennong Tastes Grass and instantly restored my HP by 75%!

The Japanese players on the walls groaned loudly at the demoralizing sight. "What the fuck! It took ages to bring his HP down, and one skill is all it takes to heal him back to full? This is bullshit!"

Meanwhile, Red Maple had landed on top of a Dragon Cannon and took control of it. He immediately rotated the muzzle in my direction while shouting, "All Dragon Cannons, aim and fire at Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand at the same time! Let’s see if he can survive six consecutive cannon shots!"

A Dragon Cannon could fire two shells in rapid succession, so three Dragon Cannons could fire a total of six shells at a time.

Dodge!

I abruptly changed directions and flew parallel along the walls, but Red Maple still managed to lock onto me anyway[1]. I couldn’t use my invincibility skill yet, or he would target Lin Yixin, He Yi, Gui Guzi or the others instead. We might suffer incredible losses if that was the case.

There was no time. Unable to think of a better plan, I decided to put my shitty plan to use!

I dashed toward the rampart and landed in the middle of a group of archers. Then, I weaved in and out of the crowd to avoid the Dragon Cannon’s targeting!

"Boss, don’t! We’ll hit our own like this!" a player shouted.

Red Maple’s complexion turned green, but he gritted his teeth and said, "You can’t always get what you want without paying the price, and taking out Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand is worth losing 100k troops[2]!"

The Dragon Cannon shuddered, and the muzzle turned red. Then, it opened fire at me with a tremendous shock wave!

I backed away while paying close attention to the Dragon Cannons. The siege weapons were player-controlled and placed in different locations, so their shots couldn’t reach me at the exact same time. I might be able to exploit the time difference and save my own life!

Red Maple’s shots arrived first and engulfed me and the players around me in flames almost instantly. My heart sank as I measured the pain I was feeling. It was because one of the shots was a critical hit!

7,571,787!

15,236,884!

Over half of my HP was gone just like that. This was unacceptable!

Still dashing around, I cast Tenacity of the Dead and Dragon Bloodboil and just barely avoided being instakilled by the enemies around me—

+6,435,309!

+3,861,185!

I zigzagged along the rampart as unpredictably as I could, but I was ultimately unable to avoid being hit by the third and fourth shot. The Dragon Cannon’s AoE was just too huge to avoid via dodging, not to mention that I was smack dab in the middle of enemy territory and being attacked from every direction. I felt like a dirty rat in broad daylight.

And so two explosions engulfed me and the Japanese players around me once more, throwing broken limbs into the air and causing two damage numbers to rise from my head—

6,892,873!

7,001,727!

I shot my HP bar a glance and felt like my heart was about to stop. Motherfucker! My HP had dropped to just 1,000 or so, meaning that even the slightest brush against an attack would probably kill me!

The explosive impact caused me to crash against the snow-covered bricks and leave behind a deep trench. The knockback power of the Dragon Cannon—assuming that the victim wasn’t blasted into pieces immediately—was no joke.

I gritted my teeth and forced myself to come to a stop with my Domain. Then, I charged straight toward a group of archers and hit them with Burning Blade Slash!

Boom!

The skill killed or damaged countless and caused my HP to skyrocket. Thousand Ice Slash at a different group of enemies later, I had returned to 16 million HP. The 50% lifesteal of my Xuanyuan Sword was just too good!

Finally, I raised the Dihai Shield, plunged my sword into the bricks, and Guarded against the fifth and sixth shots. I was pushed back a dozen meters or so, but by the end of it I still had around 2 million HP. I let out an involuntary cackle before flying straight toward Red Maple with a shout, "You’d better kill me while you still can, or you’re the one who’s going to die, Red Maple!"

Red Maple gritted his teeth and charged toward me. "You think I’m scared of you!?"

Buzz!

His sword glowed golden. It was the light of an Ancient Divine Skill!

He thought he could one-shot me with it while my health was low?

I laughed again. The moment Red Maple got close to me, I aimed my palm at his weapon and activated Flying Dragon Hand! Disarm!

Swhoosh!

Red Maple’s Ancient Divine Skill struck me right after he was disarmed. He did pretty good damage considering that he was unarmed, but—

890,034!

It didn’t matter as long as the damage wasn’t fatal. Even if I assumed that the rest of his equipment increased his Attack by 800%, his base Attack was still too low after losing his main weapon, not to mention that I had 50% damage reduction from the Cloak of Divine Fervor. He would have to be incredibly lucky to kill me barehanded.

……

I retaliated with Burning Blade Slash!

However, Red Maple surprised me by flying into the air and activating his invincibility skill. He would rather waste a precious cooldown if it meant preventing me from killing him.

"You think you can escape?"

I chased right behind him. His flight speed was slower than mine, so I could just wait until his invincibility ran out and kill him afterward.

However, I barely flew for a couple of seconds before Trapping Net suddenly appeared in front of me!

I backed away just in time to dodge the skill. Then, I saw Cyan Frost flying toward me with the Freezing Slash charged. If nothing else, the Japanese woman was tenacious as hell. She never gave up on trying to kill me!

Despite the passive HP regeneration of Regeneration of the Undead and a Rank 14 health potion, I was only sitting at 10 million HP or so. I didn’t think I could survive the combo that was sure to land after Freezing Slash, especially since Cyan Frost wasn’t a defensive magic knight. With her Attack and the hidden boosts one got for being a divine player, she had a pretty good chance of killing me if I dared to underestimate her!

Chiang!

Her sword struck the Dihai Shield and quickly encased it in ice. In the end, I wasn’t able to avoid being frozen. Cyan Frost had come at me just a bit too quickly!

774,671!

Cyan Frost immediately executed an Ice Ray Flurry after the success, but she quickly discovered that I was regenerating almost as much HP as she was deleting. At Rank 10, Regeneration of the Undead healed 2% of my max HP or 500k HP per second. The Rank 14 health potion I had used was regenerating my HP at an incredible rate as well!

"How is this possible…" Cyan Frost uttered through gritted teeth before showering me with an angry glare. "I will kill you! I won’t let Red Maple’s efforts go to waste!"

She brought her sword down in one powerful swing!

Pa!

However, I caught the blade with my bare hand before pulling it behind me. Then, I leaped over Cyan Frost’s head and struck her shoulder with the Xuanyuan Sword!

Bang!

The eternal cyclone that surrounded a divine player’s body, Unusual Physique, shattered into pieces from the blow. The gap between our stats was just too huge.

It seemed that losing Unusual Physique also caused her to lose her ability to fly because she started falling uncontrollably toward the ground.

Crash! She hit the rampart and rolled across the snow-covered bricks unceremoniously.

After she crawled back to her feet, she raised her sword and glared at me again, uttering, "Get down here, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand! I’m going to kill you!"

……

I let out a soft snort but remained in the sky to regenerate my HP. At the same time, I threw my sword at her using Coiling Dragon Revolution!

Swhoosh!

Cyan Frost tried to parry the attack, but the power behind the skill was so much that it nearly knocked her over the wall. Meanwhile, Candlelight Shadow, Warsky, Beiming Xue, Lin Yixin and more Chinese players had finally scaled up the walls!

"Hmph. You’ve lost, so die!"

Candlelight Shadow leaped into the air and activated the Dragon Tooth Arm’s special effect. When Shattering Sword and Shield penetrated Cyan Frost’s body, it dealt an incredibly amount of damage—

21,742,911!

Cyan Frost muffled a groan as her sword slowly tipped toward the ground, and her knees collapsed hard against the floor. As her warm blood dripped against the icy bricks of the Impassable Great Wall, she looked up at the sky and mumbled, "Stay alive, Red Maple. Don’t forget our promise…"

Ding!

System Announcement: Attention all players, player "Candlelight Shadow" (China) killed the JGL Hall of Famer "Cyan Frost" (Japan) and obtained 10% of their contribution points, 129,982 points!

……

For a moment, I simply watched Cyan Frost’s fallen figure in silence. I hadn’t expected her to die in this… manner. In the end, all I could say was she hadn’t died an unworthy death!

While stepping on Cyan Frost’s blood, Candlelight Shadow looked up at me and said, "You did it, Lu Chen. You are the only one who could face down 3 Dragon Cannons alone[3] and win!"

I nodded. "Let’s conquer the wall as soon as possible!"

"Mn!"

Candlelight Shadow raised his blade and shouted, "Surround the Dragon Cannons and destroy them now! Battering rams, smash the gate open so that the Impassable Great Wall cannot be an obstacle to us any longer!"

After Warsky climbed onto the wall, he shot Cyan Frost’s body a glance and frowned. "I thought Lu Chen would be the one to kill her, but you stole the kill in the end!"

Instead of answering, Candlelight Shadow flew along the rampart and spammed his Outer Flames like crazy.

He Yi flew Murong Mingyue over to me so she could heal me back to full health. The Dragon Cannons were still firing away and killing countless Chinese players with every shot, but our players had already occupied the walls almost completely. There was no way they could kill enough to change anything!

Half an hour later, all three Dragon Cannons had been destroyed, and all Japanese players on the Impassable Great Wall had been slaughtered!

……

A long-range away, Red Maple shot the victorious Chinese army a hateful look before uttering, "All Japanese players, withdraw! There’s no point guarding this place any longer. We’ll return to our city and prepare to defend it to the death!"

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh…

A lot of Japanese players began crushing their return scrolls and teleporting back to their city. Of course, there were a lot of people who couldn’t escape combat and so could only wait for death to claim them.

"Phew…"

Standing atop a rubble that used to be a Dragon Cannon, I let out a sigh of relief and said to Lin Yixin beside me, "Swallow Ear Canton will definitely fall in 10 hours."

She smiled as she gazed toward the horizon. "Barring any unexpected circumstances, yes."
