MMORPG: The Elementalist

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom!!!

The wild barrages did not last two minutes when each of Moonrise City's metal gates were blasted far inside the city itself, crashing sparks in front of the many Angel Faction players.

The gates had been penetrated!

"Charge!"

Waves of battlecries resounded as dozens of Elementalists dashed into the city from beneath the War Behemoths belly, each keeping barriers aloft.

"Brothers! Send the Demon Faction bastards crying back to their grandmas!!!"

Someone yelled, and every Elementalists on standby echoed him resoundingly!

Countless AoE spells overlapped densely as if a kaleidoscope, streaking across the air and bombarding the Demon Faction. During the last siege, the Demon Faction who had charge directly along the path and already ended up with severe casualties—this time, the Angel Faction was even better prepared, and directly weaved a vein of deadly firing line at the gates!

However, just as the Angel Faction Elementalists relentlessly poured spells at the city gates, alarmed warnings abruptly sounded from over the ramparts and the backstreets.

"Careful!"

"Above us!"

***

A man, flapping his Demonic Wings and equipped fully in Legendary items had appeared in the skies over Moonrise City out of nowhere. His arms crossed before his chest and the corners of his lips curled in a cold smiled as if a demon beneath the night sky, it stared ferociously and sinisterly at the dense, crimson flow of people beneath him!

When the first Angel Faction noticed him and yelled at the top of his lungs, the devilish man bared two rows of tidy, white teeth in a cruel and impressive smile. He watched as an Angel Faction player flew toward him from afar and laughed mockingly—grasping a staff, he unhurriedly spread the magic scroll in his hand, fixing his gaze at the man who was dashing at him quietly mouthed two words.

"Annihilation, Star!"

In the very next second, a blazing meteor carrying thick rolling smoke broke through the night sky—astonishing light and might caught the eyes of almost every player in Moonrise City!

***

Regretfully, the sounds of the siege had muffled they eyes and ears of most players at the frontlines. When they finally heard the growing alarm and the uproar around them, they could already feel the stunningly powerful pressure emanating from above their heads!

It was as every element in the air had been vaporized, as a hollow glow of death gripped the hearts of every player beneath it—only then did the Elementalists who was suppressing the city gates with supreme firepower look up subconsciously!

Too late.

The blazing meteor of flame, carrying suffocating heat and an annihilating presence descended from the skies, filling the vision of every player.

Crash!

The northern side of Moon Rise city quaked!

As if struck by a genuine meteor, forceful air pressure and shockwave left countless players outside the city and over the ramparts wobbling by the ground tremors, with many simply falling down.

For the dense rows of Tier 5 Elementalists who took the brunt of the AoE Assault, all their barriers had been simply ineffective. In the instant when the giant meteor fell on their barriers, their barrier Endurance was emptied as if flowing water!

Defensive shield shattered!

Barrier… crumbled!

In one second, the people beneath the giant meteor from the sky were squashed into puddles of flesh.

***

"Hmm!"

The troublemaker who had summoned the Star of Annihilation smiled demonically and enjoyably as he looked on at the mess he had made of the area nearby the gates of Moonrise City.

"Artistic, don't you think?"

The demon man asked a Tier 5 Supreme Champion who had paused nearby.

After streaking across the terrible manmade battlefield, Homme Fatale's cold face twitched ever so slightly. As his gaze swept past the dense ranks of players in the city below, he threw those two words with utter cruelty before flapping his Angelic Wings to a higher spot.

He had recognized the intruder: God Is A Girl, a Terramancer and the third most important figure of Death Cult. That spell just now did not exist in the standard system, and was probably a powerful hidden skill. Its destructive was far beyond Tier 5 AoE Assault, which was why it could promptly wipe out a crowd of Elementalists who were almost at the maximum level of Tier 4 (As long as they were inside the city, they would not die in the genuine sense—as for the city gates, it would not be lost from a Tier 5 AoE assault magic).

Homme Fatale had chosen to fight God Is A Girl in a single duel. Nevertheless, he was not willing to cast AoE magic without restraint like the opponent he chose within Moonrise City, with the only solution being to open a more isolated battlefield.

"Single duel? Heh, interesting!" His interest piqued, God Is A Girl smiled as he flapped his Demonic Wings and gave chase into the skies. His mission was to keep the Angel Faction champions occupied, and with Homme Fatale compelled into jumping into the fray, it was an exact fit for his intentions.

Two men, one white and one black darted into the skies, turning into two little dots!

***

On the ramparts, Slayer's Heart watched as the pair rose in the air and disappeared before clapping Violet Orchid on her shoulder. "Relax," he said soothingly to her worried face, "even if Fatale can't win, there was no doubt that he could protect himself with his power. And don't forget that skill of his…"

At that, Violet Orchid withdrew her gaze and nodded. Indeed, while God Is A Girl had fused Divinity and left the whole place in shock and awe, Homme Fatale would not be lacking in ability. Not to mention Blink Strike, the skill Fatale had made himself famous with—there would definitely be no problem.

The person himself, on the other hand…

The pair turned, looking toward Dinosaurcerer who was delightedly fighting against a War Behemoth outside the city!

"Sigh…"

Both of them shook their heads helplessly.

***

After hatching the Deathfiend Spider, Dinosaurcerer's individual ability had improved exponentially with his mastery of Dark Magic and Deathfiend Spider Control, and was now formally entering the ranks of H&G's top players…

To put it in Brother Da's vocabulary, Dinosaurcerer gained success by convenience!

It turned out that the disgusting, huge spider that no one wanted was a rare beast with innate talent and gained the ability to attack with toxic gases after hatching without consuming a single MP. Additionally, it exuded pungent rot, lowering the attack, defense, and mobility of every target within thirty meters.

In the first place, the Deathfiend Spider's attacks were tough and moved agilely. After ascending to Tier 4, with the Deathfiend Explosion skill alone that ignored defense, Dinosaurcerer just had to use it suitably, and there would be no issues for man and pet to take down a Tier 4 Elite Mega Boss.

Moreover, Dinosaurcerer had gained so many Mana Cores recently that he generously dropped some given to him by others, all while succeeding in advancing his sealing skill to a higher level and carrying who knows how many Sealed Mana Cores with him all day long…

Summoning a big, furry spider evetime anything goes wrong… he has now completely turned into a Spider King!

After the siege to Moonrise City ignited, the itching Dinosaurcerer promptly leaped into the fray—since he had Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite supporting him.

It could never be imagined that Dinosaurcerer's deterrence would rise to its very limit…

There was also no telling if the smell was really unendurable or that most players never smelled it before. When the Deathfiend Spider appeared, the stink that was smellier than rot had left players from both faction unconscious! Many clasped their noses and retreated from the bizarre stink and cursing as they ran to a corner to vomit, greatly reducing the Demon Faction's assault force by the northern gates!

Violet Orchid and Violet Devilite did not even have to help. That sector was thus mysteriously defended—even if most of the girls in the Angel Faction at the city was left too scared to approach that area, even if most of the players over the ramparts were holding their noses or vomiting away, having an impulse to beat up Dinosaurcerer himself.

It was thus with much difficulty that the Demon Faction rallied for a 'Spider-Purge' operation. A team of Elementalists held their breaths as they charged past the dorsal plates of the War Behemoths, prepared to pour all their firepower on Deathfiend Spider and get rid of that stinking arachnid for all that is good in the world…

But halfway through, an army of black lesser spiders suddenly crept out of the War Behemoth's sides out of nowhere, leaping into their formations with the Elementalists caught unawares!

Splat! Splat! Splat! Splat!

Each little Explosive Spider would immediately detonate whenever they approached the Demon Faction players, splashing black juices in all directions.

A single Explosive Spider's suicidal rot attack was not frightening, since it could only cause 50 damage while ignoring defenses… But it would certainly be horror when hundreds of furry Explosive Spiders simultaneously blow up beside them—not to mention that they were on top of a War Behemoth's back, the overlapping explosions blowing apart the already limited space.

Tragedy!

A true tragedy…

A song lamenting "it's all the spiders' fault" would have fully expressed the torment of hundreds Demon Faction players over the War Behemoth's back!

Barriers crumbled at once, just as no individual could withstand the assault of Explosive Spiders as they lunged into the crowd. White light unfurled, billowing over the War Behemoth's back without ceasing, killing even more Demon Faction players than they did minutes ago.

The very sight left the hair on the League players over the ramparts standing on end. As they glared at Dinosaurcerer who stood alongside that revolting giant spider while filtering the stink, all of them gulped with much difficulty.

"Could that bugger be a professional spider breeder?"

***

While Dinosaurcerer pridefully earned his colorful combat honors, the other three sectors of Moonrise City were still being assaulted heavily by the Tier 5 Demon Faction Champions.

Tier 5 Champions of the Three Great Leagues who possessed Angelic Wings were consecutively lured by Demon Factions Champions into the skies above! As those Tier 5 Champions attacked, the offensive of the Demon Faction abruptly increased!

All four directions of Moonrise City were at a tight spot…

The flames of war blazed harder!

***

"It's about time for the fifth War Behemoth to appear!"

The hearts of Scarlet Bauhinia, Netherclaw, and Majestic Hero were heavy. Though their Divine Champions slight outnumbered the Demon Faction's, their opponents were clearly holding the advantage both in appearance and under the surface, stopping them from braving any sort of recklessness.

As the trio simultaneously mused at three different ramparts, an earth-shattering bellow of a beast resounded at that very thought, rolling like a dull thunder and extending.

The hearts of every Angel Faction player inside Moonrise City shuddered at once!
