Zhan Long-Chapter 1328: Easily taking Celestial Basin
Horse hooves stomped on the ground, the silence in Whistle Wind Forest was all gone. Q-Sword led the 200 thousand Hero Mound players forwards toward Cold Blade Pass. But the first map was Celestial Trace Basin. The silence around sent chills down one’s back. Although we couldn't see the ambushing troops but they would definitely set a trap for us here.
……
“When should we head out?” Ye Lai asked.
“No rush.”
I rode on Mei Er’s back, “Ye Lai, lead a portion of people with Misty Clouds towards the north of the basin. Once I give an order then charge.”
“Ok.”
I looked towards Jian Feng Han and Simple, “Jian Feng Han, Beautiful Simple, Drunken Spear and you two lead a third of our forces towards the south. Wait for my signal and then charge. Q-Sword is going to attack the Americans so he is definitely stuck, we can’t let them die there for nothing.”
Jian Feng Han nodded, “En!”
Simple smiled, “What about you, are you leading the Zhan Long main force to attack head on?”
“Right!”
I sucked in a deep breath, “Once we win here, we can attack Cold Blade Pass and take it down. We can’t stay here for too long, we don’t have much time. Iron Skull City is tough too, we might not be able to take it down in 48 hours much less now that we have lesser time.”
Simple nodded, “Then okay, we will work hard, good luck our China Region MVP!”
“En en!”
I looked as Jian Feng Han, Ye Lai, Baili Ruofeng left. The Chinese players followed their guild leaders. Many of them were opponents in the past but now they listened to my orders without any hesitation. This was the charm of the country war. In the face of a common enemy, we became allies.
……
Killing shouts spread from the distance. Q-Sword led 200 thousand people to enter the basin. Deep inside were some NPCs and players, around 50 thousand of them. Sky Rose was generous to send so many people as bait. To wipe out our vanguard forces they were going all out.
Hero Mound entered and crashed into the crowd. At the same time, cannons fired. Over 70% of the surface of the basin were American players. No only players but NPC troops and Demon Crystal Cannons. Hero Mound’s forces were covered in cannonfire and their losses were very heavy.
But I could see that the 20 thousand led by Q-Sword were really strong, they charged about while tanking the shots. They killed the 50-60 thousand of them just like that. Q-Sword then shouted and then brought the Rock Beast Cavalries to spread out to block the ambushing players.
20 minutes and the basin was covered with people. This map was huge and could contain over 3 million players. 3 million Iron Skull City players surrounded the 200 thousand led by Q-Sword. Moreover, Sky Rose wasn’t stupid. Cold Blade Pass opened up and many Iron Skull City players charged out to defend around the basin. She knew that we would ambush them from the outside but unfortunately, she didn’t know how determined we were.
“Keng!”
Butterfly was pulled out of its sheath, and I shouted loudly, “All allies, attack! Don’t care about them, breakthrough and surround the basin. Don’t let Hero Mound die for nothing!”
……
Li Mu, Wang Jian, Mocha, Meng Yao pulled out their weapons and charged along with me. 100 thousand Zhan Long players formed a current that charged in. Behind us, many other China region guilds joined in. Killing shouts spread from the south as Judgement, Vanguard, Appearance Alliance and Soaring Dragon attacked.
Zhan Long faced the least resistance. After we dove in, only 100 thousand players blocked us. They formed a shield formation and it was quite thick. It was at least a hundred meters with 50 layers. They were smart, they knew they had to disrupt our formation and slow us down. If not, facing the strongest cavalries in china, they would definitely die!
But they thought too much. Zhan Long’s Furance God Cavalries had the Flying General+Quickness effect. Flying General could maintain speeds above 50% and Quickness could stun so how could this shield formation block us? That was no problem, we had too many top players.
I raised Butterfly and shouted loudly, “God Grade players at the front, break through the shield formation. Backline charge, don’t stop!”
I raised Butterfly and used Underworld Sword Breaking. A hundred players were in range and they cried out, instantly half of them were killed. My Attack was just too high.
Li Mu, Wang Jian, Mocha, Wan Er etc used God Form to open the path. Seven colored skill lights shone and their defensive line was shattered. The Furnace God Cavalries waved their weapons and dyed the basin red. The few guilds were not the elite guilds of Iron Skull City so naturally, they couldn’t block us. Instantly, they collapsed.
“Be careful, there are cannons aimed at us!” Yue Qing Qian was really smart and noticed. There were three cannons hidden and protected by a hundred NPCs.
“Li Mu, Old K, destroy them!”
“Okay!”
The two generals left the formation and flew over. A few seconds later one could hear explosions as one of the cannons exploded from the attacks. Li Mu and Old K’s equipment were really good so they couldn’t die. They laughed and killed a bunch of NPCs. No need to care about them, they were having fun so it was impossible to pull them back.
……
When we were fully in the basin, we noticed that Hero Mound was split into two. The players were splitting them up to kill these undying beasts?
“Q-Sword is about to fall.” Yue Qing Qian said firmly.
I gritted my teeth, “Yong Jie, lead a bunch to assist Q-Sword, the rest follow me. Charge from the middle and then split into two to slice their path back to Cold Blade Pass. Since they dare to come, they can forget about heading back!”
One Second Hero nodded. He had one of the top defence in Zhan Long so it was best for him to lead troops to save Q-Sword. Few people could break his defence.
After splitting up, we still had 50 thousand people. With the other groups, over a million players charged from the middle. Any Iron Skull City players were killed. Our eyes were red and we could only see flags and not the city. Anyone not on our side would be killed!
After charging through, we split up. I led a team towards the south, Death God’s Elergy led people towards the north. This kid was bold and that was what I admired about him. Although he was the guild leader of the division but I had high hopes for him. Even Old K, Song Han etc main guild team leaders had to listen to his commands. That showed how much I respected him.
My trust could exchange for an even stronger him. Zhan Long needed such talents. We couldn’t just rely on people close, that was something I understood.
……
Time flowed bit by bit and the Chinese surrounded the basin. Although they sent over a million from the pass to break through but it did nothing. The 3 million ambushings here had to die once. Some of them lost 2, 4 and even 8 levels.
After close to three hours, with absolute strength and numbers, all of the 3 million were dead. A few god grade players that tried to flee were killed by Lin Wan Er, Dong Cheng Yue and Dancing Forest. The basin was covered in equipment and positions. Soaring Dragon and House of Prestige were clearing up.
I rejected Li Mu’s request to clear up and told Zhan Long to give up on the items and charge towards the pass. We didn’t have much time and we couldn’t give Sky Rose a chance to set up a defence. The faster we were, the more they would be caught. Sky Rose set up ambushes in Whistle Wind Forest and Celestial Trace Basin so she definitely didn’t expect us to be so quick. Maybe she was planning to crush us east of the pass.
Maybe because of Zhan Long’s emotions, vanguard, Judgement and Hero Mound also gave up on the items. They charged with us and very quickly, over 5 million players were gathered. No orders were needed and we started to attack!
……
Cold Blade Pass, a black colored pass that had decent defence. After all, it was a pass and not a main city so the limit was a million people. The walls were narrow and at most 20 people could stand side by side. If one placed cannons then even fewer people could be there. Now 200 cannons were firing and numerous Archers were shooting down.
I didn’t see Sky Rose, Seven Feather or Rhythm of the Rain. I also didn’t see Blades of War and Feather God etc guilds. Those defending were the second rate guilds.
Attack!
