"Start the attack!" King Hu Yi came out of his daze after several seconds and shouted at the top of his lungs while pulling the Unbound Bow's string to the maximum. With another roar, a fire arrow shot out like a meteor and only a moment later hit the Abyssal Dragon's body.
The arrow exploded in a cloud of fire, taking over six hundred thousand health points in the blink of an eye. The King of the North continued to fire arrows relentlessly, avoiding the head area where the beautiful but terrifying Ling Long was unleashing her fury.
"Attack, now!"
Snapping out of their stupor, all the guild leaders grabbed their communication tools and shouted at the same time. The commanders in charge passed the order and the small team leaders carried them out, unleashing countless attacks against the seemingly powerless dragon.
However, everyone knew that the Abyssal Dragon was far from being as impotent as it seemed. For they had witnessed with their own eyes how a mere attack from that creature had slaughtered hundreds of thousands of players in the blink of an eye!
The first to move were the NPC soldiers.
A level 60 silver-armored soldier charged forward and when he reached one of the legs of the huge dragon, the soldier swung his sword in a wide arc.
-4.451
"What?!" The soldier's eyes widened in disbelief at the low damage he had dealt.
As a level 60 soldier, his physical attack power was really high and his attacks could normally inflict ten thousand to twenty thousand points of damage. However, his power had been rejected by at least half by the powerful scales of the Abyssal Dragon; this was a great shock to this man who had expected, at the very least, to inflict eight thousand points of damage.
Another soldier in level 90 golden armor gritted his teeth and stabbed forward with his spear with all his might.
-9.839
The elite soldier's eyes shuddered in horror as he realized that his attack power normally capable of inflicting twenty thousand to twenty-five thousand points of damage had diminished so much.
Scenes like this could be seen everywhere when the army of NPC soldiers attacked. None of them could believe what they were witnessing... However, even though the power of damage they could deal had decreased, when fifty thousand men united and complied in unison, the amount of damage they could deal was very high.
In just a few seconds, the Abyssal Dragon had lost over ten million health points! In fact, if it wasn't for the dragon's constant movement, the NPC soldiers could have dealt a lot more damage! However, they had to be careful or they might be crushed to death; therefore, the damage output had been drastically reduced.
The approximately ten million damage from the NPC soldiers, coupled with King Hu Yi's constant arrow fire had taken a total of about fifteen million health from the Saint grade boss!
On the other hand, while the NPC army soldiers were attacking vigorously, the players...
An archer raised his bow and after aiming for a split second fired while activating a skill exclusive to archers called Piercing Arrow. As the name suggested, the effect of the skill was that it had some ability to penetrate the enemy's defenses and ignore them.
However, when the arrow hit the scales of the Abyssal Dragon....
Miss...
It wasn't just one or two archers who missed; countless warriors, archers, assassins, and shield guards had surrounded and attacked the massive body of the boss. However, all these players got was...
Miss...Miss...Miss...Miss... -3... Miss... -1... Miss...
Miss...Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss...
Unlike the NPC soldiers who had superior Agility, thus increasing the probability of hitting their attacks and decreasing the probability of missing, the players were on average level 23-25; the difference between them and the Abyssal Dragon was too high so most of their attacks failed and even those who were able to damage it were the mages... But even the damage of the mages was negligible.
Even with the union of approximately six million of them attacking almost all at the same time, the amount of damage they had managed to cause to the Abyssal Dragon had barely reached twenty thousand points after several seconds of attack.
Just when the players were getting desperate, a fire missile flew out from the back of the army and hit the dragon's lower jaw. The fire missile blasted out in a fiery blaze and a figure slowly floated high into the sky, flickering from the pitiful 'Miss'.
-7.275
"Look! That's the Empress of Fire!"
"Incredible! She can actually break through the Abyssal Dragon's defenses and even hit her attack accurately despite the level difference!"
"As expected from the strongest fire mage!"
While the players were reveling and thanking the heavens that at least one among their kind could do something in the current situation, a two-meter dark arrow flew out from the same direction as the fire missile and hit the dragon's stomach.
-8.953
"That... Isn't that Rainbow Butterfly?!"
"How could it be... Her attack before was definitely not as strong as it is now!"
At the back of the army of players, Gu Qianxue winked at Yao Mei, who was looking at her in surprise, and said words that Yao Mei didn't understand, "Now that my eyes opened, my power increased a lot~ I won't lose to you anymore little sister Yao Mei~"
Xie Yao simply observed all this calmly. She could not make powerful attacks and her healing was meaningless in this situation because a single attack from the Abyssal Dragon was enough to end the lives of practically everyone present; even Xie Feng was no different in this case. However, Xie Yao was neither anxious nor did she feel sad as she probably would have in the past... Because she finally understood that her ability lay elsewhere and her help would be the most important at the end of this terrifying and important battle in which the destiny of the mankind of the Adrastria Continent hung by a thin thread.
In fact, from a certain point of view, Xie Yao was the most important person present. Although at this moment she could not help in any way, all those who were smart enough understood that everyone could die, Shiva could die; but Feng Yao could not die no matter what!
"I guess it's my turn." Mu Wuying smiled slightly and her eyes had a strange glint in them. Although she was the eldest in the group of beauties present, as the princess of the Mu Family, Mu Wuying was a very proud woman.
She also wanted to compete and see who was the most talented woman here.
"Calamity Spear!" Her lips moved seductively and after that little murmur of two words, a red energy spear formed behind her.
Swoosh!
With a flick of her magic staff, the crimson spear soared through the skies like lightning and struck directly at the neck of the mighty Saint grade Abyssal Dragon.
Unlike the dark arrow or the launched fire missile, the crimson energy spear did not explode or cause a great and surprising effect.
