“Retreat! Order the NPCs, sailors, to turn the boats around and retreat!”
India’s 4th guild leader Thunder Bear held his axe but he had no will to fight at all. Seeing Drunk Maple and Demon Mountain get killed together, he was terrified. He hollered to retreat. In truth, he had no choice. This was the deep ocean region and players couldn’t head down to fight. I was a god-grade player and this place was like flat land to me. I also relied on my strong stats to easily destroy ships, that was something they couldn’t imagine.
They couldn’t beat me and they couldn’t stay alive, retreating was the only thing they could do.
……
The war drums started to slow, each strike smashed into one’s heart. That was the signal to retreat. The Indians and Germans were retreating from Sea of No Return. The cause of that was only me, who knew what they would be thinking now?
Their hearts were definitely heavy.
Many corpses floated on the water and their equipment sunk to the bottom. I couldn’t fish them out at all as it was too deep. There were many ocean monsters below so I might not gain anything good anyways. I didn’t even search for what Demon Mountain or Drunk Maple dropped. Seeing the ships disappear into the night sky, I turned around towards Iron Skull City and Moon City.
Not long later, I arrived in the skies above a dense forest. This forest was Whistle Wind Forest that was said to spread 700 miles but in truth was just 400 miles. Players had to walk for 5-7 hours, 3 if they rode. With my flying speed, an hour was enough. This was between Moon City and Iron SKull City and it became the natural barrier between the two. If not for how wide this forest was, Moon City would definitely be attacked by Sky Rose already.
At 5000 meters above, I was hidden in the clouds and saw everything happening below. I could even see lions pouncing at sheep. After ascending, my vision became much clearer. A beep came from Q-Sword, he had started fighting with Swirling Abyss City south of Moon City.
I didn’t think too much. Let them handle it. Q-Sword, Ye Lai, Jian Feng Han, Misty Clouds were all there, it was enough.
I continued to fly to search for details in the forest.
Logically speaking, Sky Rose wouldn’t allow any chinese player to enter the Iron Skull City map. That was their style, to have the battlefield outside of their homes. This forest naturally became the best location.
Not long later, I noticed groups of players in the bushes but they weren’t from Iron Skull City but Western Alliance. Koreans, the Philippines, and Vietnam were all here. At first, there was just a small number but then it got more and more. There was over 10 million spread in the center of the forest.
I couldn’t see any clearer as they were hidden below the trees and my vision was blocked.
Down!
I dove down and landed where there was no one. I was invisible and they still couldn’t see me.
Luckily there were many bushes and they were all connected which provided me with cover. Some of them hid in the bushes too but they couldn’t see me. This was fantastic.
……
I spent an hour like this and not long later the NPC army was seen. It was the Iron Skull City army, they were covered by branches and leaves. Cavalries were covered in vines and waiting quietly. Damn, even the NPCs knew to ambush us. Sky Rose really planned well.
Under the trees, the Japanese important players were here too. Frost Forest rubbed the dragon head of the mount while the other hand was on the sword handle.
New Moon Guild’s guild leader Demon Moon held the spear and was impatient, “Frost Forest do we just wait here forever?”
“If not?” Frost Forest looked at her expressionlessly.
She licked her lips, “Are you willing?”
“Willing?”
“Sky Rose told the Japanese and Koreans to ambush here so that we lead the way. China is really strong so they are obviously using us as cannon fodder. Are you willing to allow tens of millions of Japanese players to die with you here? Don’t forget that everyone died at least twice and if we die again we would lose 4 levels. We don’t have the main city and our recovery is far less than the Chinese and Americans. If this continues, we can’t afford it at all.” She sighed and then stopped.
Frost Forest looked into the sky and breathed out, his face was filled with helplessness, “So what? We have no choice. Apart from cooperating with them, we have no way out. Xiao Yao Zi Zai is too strong and he killed Demon Mountain, Drunk Maple at the same time. You should know how much they hate us. Apart from helping the Americans, what other choice do we have?”
New Moon’s deputy said, “The truth is like that. If Iron Skull City wins, we can get one or two secondary cities. But if China wins, with Xiao Yao Zi Zai, Q-Sword, Ye Lai’s personality, they would chase us all out.”
Frost Forest nodded, “Do you remember what we said when we entered the game? We will let the world shiver because of us and for everyone to know our names. But things aren’t as we imagined. I am helping the Americans because I haven’t given up, I want to continue to work hard. If not, why do you think I found Sky Rose to get 100 thousand NPCs and 300 cannons? Even if we all die here today, we must rip the skin of the Chinese right?”
Demon Moon was a little touched, “With your words I am at ease, you are the pride of Japan! Contact the Koreans, Lee should be prepared. We are facing over 70% of the Chinese strength. Zhan Long, Hero Mound, Judgement, Vanguard are all here. We need to go all out.”
“En, yes!”
……
I hid behind the bushes and sucked in a deep breath. I found such useful intel. I recorded the cannon coordinates as well as the ambush. As long as we are prepared, the 300 cannons were going to be buried here.
In truth, I could choose to kill them here but there was no need. That would expose me and they would know that they got exposed too. Let them wait here, I had a detailed map so it was fine. I had faith in China’s strength.
I retreated slowly and found a chance to charge into the skies and leave the place.
……
I continued west. Whistle Wind Forest had another layer of ambush. Vietnam, Philippines etc small servers were gathered here. After flying for another half an hour, a giant basin appeared, it was the Celestial Trace Basin, a natural barrier to Iron Skull City. It was at least 400 meters lower than sea level and it was like a huge bowl. Hard to come out once one enters. Sky Rose definitely wouldn’t give up such a good ambush point.
I flew forwards and saw a long black wall. It was no different from the great wall, all the bricks were black and it stretched hundreds of miles. There was only one pass and it was Cold Blade Pass. There were many people here. Many Iron Skull City players were ambushing here. Many Fire Dragon Cannons, Demon Crystal Cannons and Crossbow Chariots were placed at the pass.
My heart sank, this was going to be tough!
Further west, I could see the shadow of Iron Skull City. This city was so close to us! Looking at it, I was pumped up! I had to take it down, show the 30 million Americans our strength and charm!
……
Not long later, a message came from Li Mu, “Zhan Long’s main force is at Moon City. Come back quick, Wan Er and Q-Sword discussed, we will strike in an hour!”
“Okay, make preparations, I will be right back. Are the NPC troops here? What about the cannons?”
Li Mu smiled, “They are all here. We sent a million NPCs and pretty much went all out. I see Royal Army’s God Dragon Cannons and Fire Dragon Cannons. You can order them to attack first.”
“Don’t.” I shook my head, “Players first and then NPCs or it would be a waste.”
“En!”
