MMORPG: Martial Gamer

<System Notification: Yamatai City’s City Lord has declared war against Saga City! All the teleportation formations in Saga City will be closed, war will begin in 10 minutes. All Saga City’s players, prepare for war.>

“!!!”

Sanguine Warflag and Sanguine Asura was shocked at the sudden notification and screamed, “W… what is going on?”

Sanguine Warflag was extremely clueless about this situation.

For wars like this, the defending party had the advantage of having their city walls and it would be a few levels harder to attack than to plan an attack from within the country. These two idiots could not wrap their heads around the idea why Black Dragon Guild chose to abandon their country to attack from the outside.

Of course, the main reason for that was not because Sanguine Warflag was too stupid to see it coming. It was purely because he had no experience as a City Lord.

If it were to be Quan Zhen Sect, they would have guessed Black Dragon Guild’s ultimate goal from the beginning.

So what if the players could go offline, be invisible and launch an ambush? They wouldn’t last long if they were to face a strong team like Sanguine Alliance.

However, the Black Dragon Guild’s ultimate goal was the entire city!

Not only did the Black Dragon Guild have more players, but they also had reinforcements. Once Sanguine Alliance started their war, there will be no turning back. Black Dragon Guild would eventually be able to wear Sanguine Alliance limited troops out sooner or later.

Moreover, the fact that Black Dragon King could destroy all of their fighting spirit with one single move and attack again when they were unprepared showed that he was someone with incredible foresight. His war declaration also meant that he already had his war strategies planned.

…

Sanguine Alliance’s players were all out of the city at that moment and that caught Sanguine Warflag a little off guard.

Sanguine Warflag summoned all his members via the groups chat in a hurry.

However, due to the fact that Sanguine Warflag had gained ownership to the city without doing anything, the players were all a little complacent and went to faraway places to train. The only players that could make it within 10 minutes were the lower level players who were training nearby.

At the key moment, Sanguine Stormbringer behaved like a vice-chairman and volunteered to bring the players who were back to defend the city gate.

However, Sanguine Stormbringer was dumbfounded when he got his men up the city walls.

Black Dragon Guild’s declaration of war left enough time for Lava Teeth to bring his men past the training area to the edge of Saga City. Countless Black Dragon Guild players dashed in from all directions, surrounding the city.

After looking at the situation, the only regret Sanguine Warflag had was to not listen to Sanguine Stormbringer’s advice from the start.

Not only was the enemy massive in size, but Sanguine Warflag was also in a foreign country without even a ship so escaping was not even in his choices. Seeing the Black Dragon Guild’s players at the city gate, Sanguine Warflag closed the gate.

The city gate was invincible before the attack began, hence it could still defend the city from any attacks from Black Dragon Guild.

Even though closing the city gate would keep his own members outside the city, it was still better than letting the Black Dragon Guild’s players in.

Once the Black Dragon Guild players went into the city, the city gate would no longer be of any more use.

Lava Teeth saw the closure of the city gate and sent a message to Black Dragon King immediately, “You were right, Boss. The Chinese closed the gate!”

“Got it!” Black Dragon King replied calmly, “Guard the place well. Don’t let anymore Chinese in!”

“Got it!”

Lava Teeth called for defence in the guild chat.

After receiving the order, the players spread themselves out and changed their formation with the Tanks facing out of the city.

“???”

Sanguine Warflag was stunned at the move by Black Dragon Guild and could not figure out what they were planning.

Back facing the city would then make them the defenders of the city, so where do the Sanguine Alliance players stand?

“This is not right!” Sanguine Stormbringer saw through Lava Teeth’s mind and said with a frown, “Are they perhaps trying to block our reinforcement?”

“Block our reinforcement? Are they trying to eliminate all our people outside at once?” Sanguine Warflag exclaimed.

“Impossible!” Sanguine Stormbringer said, “To conquer the main city, they have to kill the City Lord and snatch the seal. It makes no sense to block our people outside the city!”

“Kill the City Lord?” Sanguine Asura interrupted again, “It can’t be that. We have already closed our city gate and they are not advancing into the city, how are they even going to kill the City Lord?”

Sanguine Asura part of the reason why this was happening to all of them. Although Sanguine Warflag did not make any additional statements, Sanguine Asura’s tone was clearly weaker than before.

Sanguine Stormbringer was not someone who held grudges. He looked at Sanguine Asura and said calmly, “You cannot think this way. What if they had already planted people in the city for the ambush?”

“Ambush? Why don’t I see anything?” Sanguine Asura looked around and said.

Sanguine War Flag added immediately, “We are in the game, all they need to do is to go offline and we won’t be able to see them!”

“Uh…” Sanguine Asura was lost for words.

Sanguine Warflag just finished his sentence and the system notification sounded off: <System notification: Preparation time over, war begins!>

In the Yamatai City headquarters, Black Dragon King smiled after looking at the notification and said to a small and frail player beside him, “It’s time for your men to appear, Dragon Tooth!”

“Got it, Boss!”

The frail-looking player replied and went offline.

Right after that, a dash of light appeared on Saga City’s central plaza. A group of players with Black Dragon Guild’s badge on their chests appeared..”

Although they were Black Dragon Guild’s players, their equipment and aura were way stronger than any normal Black Dragon Guild players that Quan Zhen Sect and Sanguine Alliance had seen.

These players wore black armours, and the weapons in their hands emitted light as well.

Judging from their fierce expressions, they looked like players who went through hundreds of wars, and were definitely not easy people to deal with.
