“Hong--”

Apprehension exploded shocking damage among the Pioneer Cavalries. I held my daggers and stabbed the monsters. I used Dark Shadow Jump and Flames of Karma with Hunter’s Edge. With my splash damage, I was unstoppable. Even with zero swallow soul stacks I was too strong.

But, I probably had to stack swallow soul for what was going to happen next.

No choice, S Grade strategic areas were few and T1 guilds would definitely compete for them. Moreover, the Badger Valley was really important and had to be fought for. Whoever got it would occupy the main position in the event!

……

“Return Slash, break!”

Lin Xi brushed past me and used Ancient Totem+Return Slash on dozens of Pioneer Cavalries, instantly killing half of them. The White Deer broke through, becoming the first player that broke through the formation of the monsters between With You and Vanguard.

“Follow Lin Xi, attack!”

I waved and the backline players followed up, forming a defence breaking team with Lin Xi as the blade. I followed like a shadow, using Wooden Dummy, Apprehension and Dragon Will to clear their obstacles. After half a minute, Lin Xi was first in the valley.

“Ang ang---”

A bunch of badgers fled from the bushes and charged into the nearby forest. The Badger Valley wasn’t their home anymore and it was now a battlefield between humans and dimension legion troops. The moment Lin Xi entered, with a dark streak of light, I appeared on the other side and walked side by side with her into this foreign.

“Weng weng weng---”

The instant that I entered the valley, a dense colony of bees appeared above my head. Each bee was the size of a huge wheel that dove down.

“Lin Xi be careful!”

I had Shifang Flame Spiral Eye so I was able to see clearly. I directly shared their stats with the guild--

Death Bee (Quasi Legacy Grade Boss)

Level: 145

Attack: 22500-35500

Defence: 20000

Health: 30000000

Skill: Poison Attack, Double Strike, Heaven and Earth Toss, Death Strike

Introduction: Death Bee, one of the high grade troops of the dimension legion army. Although they are bugs but they have strong death law powers. Since young, they have been nurtured in hell as one of the messengers of death. Not only do they have poison, they learned a series of scary skills. If they appear as a colony, they would be the nightmare of everyone.

……

“Damn!”

Light Lantern couldn’t help but grumble, “Brothers push up, don’t let Lin Xi and Lu Li get insta killed. The bees are too strong. Push forwards and insta kill them. Healers follow up and reduce casualties!”

On the backline, 2000+ people followed up instantly. When Lin Xi and I retreated into the group, numerous spells and arrows shot into the sky. Shen Mingxuan raised her bow and her eyes were filled with shock， ”Shockwave Arrow, leave the bees in the skies, don’t let them come down, quick!”

I used Apprehension in a group of them and said, “Frontline try to draw aggro, don’t let them attack the backline, if not we are finished!”

Instantly, Lin Xi used Ancient Totem+Sword Tempest. Cal, Light Lantern, Haotian etc used their ranged attacks to draw aggro from the death bees but it was still too late. In a blink of an eye, a large group of them entered the ranged team behind us.

“Ding ding ding---”

Lin Xi used Ancient Totem+Sword Tempest. Cal, Light Lantern, Haotian used their few ranged skills to draw aggro but it was still too late. A large group of them charged into the ranged team behind us.

“Ding ding ding--”

The sounds of them using skills were really dense. Many of them were like mini fighter gets crashing into the crowd, using poison attack, double hit, Heaven and Earth Toss etc skills. Just right away, dozens of players died!

“Focus on protection!”

My head felt numb. I used Dark Shadow Jump in front of Mingxuan and crossed my daggers to knock a Death Bee that was attacking her aside. I also spread my hand and used my cape’s special skill-- Life like dream!

“Shua shua shua---”

Green light shone around the With You players around. Life like Dream, raise stats of allies 100 yards around by 30%, moreover raise luck stats. This meant that players’ avoidance, critical chance resistance etc hidden skills will greatly increase. It was enough to increase their survivability to a whole new level!

But that was not enough. I used Envoy of Light to protect Shen Mingxuan, Gu Ruyi and Light Frost. In this event, they were our treasure. If the few of them died, our overall damage would drop. This was a price that we couldn’t handle.

“Shua!”

Up above, White Deer was wrapped in light. Lin Xi rode the deer over our heads and with one slash she killed dozens of Death Bees. They were also hit by the Sika Deer Cavalries.

“Control follow up!”

On the backline, Mundane Slaughter led a bunch of people over. With You’s six main alliance team with 6000 people were all here. The monsters on the outer area were all cleared.

Along with there being more of us, our situation stabilised. But Vanguard was still in a tough situation. They were being attacked by many Death Bees and their losses were heavy. But in the crowd, their top Mage Not Fish was performing really well.

“Hong!”

Red Flame Hell was released among the bees and the scorch effect was very apparent. She then used Flame Whirlpool to stack damage. When the bees charged at her, she spread her left hand and flames spat out. She was calm and said, “Flame Control!”

A flame palm appeared in the sky that trapped a bunch of the bees. As arrows covered them, these bees turned into corpses.

“Damn…”

Haotian frowned, “Not Fish’s fire skills are not bad, no wonder her ranking in the last last last event was so high.”

“Right.”

I nodded, “After all she is the hidden job Fire Feather Mage and has AOE damage and control. She also has a jump skill. She is not much weaker than our Ruyi.”

“Be careful when we fight.”

Lin Xi frowned, “Lu Li and I will focus fire and try to insta kill her, on our side… Light Lantern, Cal, you two protect Ruyi and our ranged players. With them here, we have the advantage.”

“En!”

Light Lantern nodded, “We can’t be overconfident. In the last T1 rankings, Vanguard was really high, they were higher than Limitless and Winds of Battle. They have 9000+ people here now and left the strategic areas to their divisions. They have the number advantage over us.”

“That might not be just an advantage.”

Haotian frowned, “3:2, if we can beat them, let’s find a chance to beat up Elements and we will be the top T1 guild.”

“Don’t be overconfident.”

Lin Xi looked at us and said, “Vanguard has started since Jian Feng Han and Simple’s times. Their main guild and divisions have always been active. These are the 9000 most active members. We have our own advantage but that might not mean that we are stronger than them. We have to go all out for this battle!”

“En!”

Everyone nodded. Now it was down to how both sides were going to fight.

……

Time passed bit by bit. With You and Vanguard attacked from the sides and cleared out the bees and pioneer cavalries along the way. Not long later we were in the central region. At the center, there was a 200 meter tall flat ground, the only high ground in the valley. On it was a bunch of dimension legion monsters looking down on us.

“A bunch of ants!”

In the sky, a golden robed mage stood high above. He held a red staff and looked coldly at us. He laughed coldly, “Just you people want to take down Badger Valley, stop dreaming!”

I looked up and confirmed that this was a Chaotic Grade Boss just that he was a mage type so it shouldn’t be tough to kill him. At least for With You and Vanguard it wouldn’t be too tough. After all, we had Assassins. Assassins against Mages was like father hitting their son.

“So how?”

Cal frowned and looked at the monsters around.

“Vanguard’s intentions are obvious.”

Lin Xi said, “Their main force is on the other side and they want to fight us for high ground and control over the boss. Whoever gets the flag wins.”

“It won’t be so simple.”

I shook my head, “After players take it, we can still fight for the flag. So after taking down the boss, that is when the real fight begins.”

“En.”

Lin Xi smiled, “Don’t care so much, clear the monsters and head up first!”
