Zhan Long

Dense horse hoof sounds spread from deep in the forest. The ancient imperial city started to refresh and all NPC troops would be teleported away. As such, Waterfront City's NPC army had no place to go and could only retreat. However, their path backward was already sealed by all of us. Moreover, a bunch of Dragon Crystal Cannons and Flame Dragon Cannons were waiting for them.

"They are here!"

Han Yuan held the handle of his blade emotionally and his hands were shaking. He looked into the distance and said, "General, let's attack?"

"Calm down, wait for more of them to come out first. Listen to my orders."

"Yes!"

Behind me, Lin Wan Er was rubbing Little White's neck to calm it down such that it didn't charge out. If that happened, our plan would be ruined.

Waterfront City's Flame Lion Army flag appeared in our field of sight. The front was all cavalry and over 30 thousand of them charged out of the forest and gathered in front of us. They then pushed towards Waterfront City. At the same time, they released War Hawk Knights to scout the surrounding situation. However, it was already too late.

"Keng!"

Butterfly was out of its sheath and I held my sword high up, "Attack!"

"Peng peng peng" sounds spread from all around and over 200 cannons fired at the same time. Dense and messy cannon fire exploded and caused heatwaves to ripple out. The Flame Lion Army troops were ripped into pieces. However, this wasn't it as Royal Army was not sent out yet. We only used cannons to make them suffer. After 20 minutes, a few of the 30 thousand Flame Lion Army troops remained. Thousands of people charged towards the right and behind them were Azure Ocean Army and Dragonling Army. They were fleeing!

I clicked on the map and looked at where they were fleeing towards. There was another forest there.

Lin Wan Er blinked and asked, "Are there troops where they are fleeing towards?"

I nodded, "Fire Dragon Army and Violent Thunder Army has around 220 thousand troops over there and over 200 Dragon Crystal Cannons. This Waterfront City won't be able to flee, like... We can gain experience and points from killing NPCs. Wan Er, do you want to kill some?"

"Sure, I will gather the Furnace God Cavalry and tell them to come over to kill the easy pickings."

"Okay!"

...

I charged out with my sword and ordered Han Yuan and Xiao Lie to lead the 40 thousand cavalries and 30 thousand barbarian infantry to attack the Flame Lion Army and Azure Ocean Army. Butterfly was dyed with blood once more. Waterfront City's NPCs were lower level than us so it wasn't too hard to kill them. Lin Wan Er laid on Little White's back. After merging with its blood, she ordered Little White to use Frost Breath on the crowd. Yue Qing Qian's killing ability was lower so she picked those low health targets.

A while later, Li Mu and Wang Jian led 5000+ Furnace God Cavalry from the forest to attack 4000+ Dragonling Army troops. These soldiers were mostly Floating Clouds' old squad and some of them were traitors that were released. They thought that they had escaped but wishful thinking. Tian Ling City's war against Waterfront City had just been brought forwards.

In the cannon fire, Flame Lion Army's infantry and flag were burnt into ashes. Fire Dragon Army General Tan Taiyu charged while shouting, "Xing Huo you traitor, surrender! Are you waiting for me to slash you?"

The Flame Lion Army was in a mess and Xing Huo's face was scorched black. He still slashed at the Fire Dragon Army troops and his face was filled with hatred, "Tan Taiyu,

You haven't even been through puberty and you want to be my enemy. You are asking for death! Brothers retreat, once we return to Waterfront City, we will rise back up and slice off the heads of Tian Ling City's despicable ruler and his dogs!"

Unfortunately, Xing Huo's life wasn't so smooth. A dragon roared above him and Lin Wan Er descended with the silver dragon. Little White spat out a frost breath and locked onto Xing Huo!

"En? !"

Xing Huo was shocked and retreated by dozens of meters. In the ned, his warhorse and a bunch of troops were frozen there. He looked up at Lin Wan Er, "Flaming Cloud Infanta, you are actually serving someone like Lochlan?"

Lin Wan Er smiled, "Who is serving him? I am just serving someone I love."

Xing Huo was furious and jumped up. His sword was wrapped in thick flames as he slashed towards Lin Wan Er and Little White. However, even though he was a Deity Tier Boss, Lin Wan Er didn't fear him. She slashed and her attacks dealt many damage numbers. Xing Huo didn't stop and sliced Little White's neck to deal 70+ thousand damage. But that was fine, Little White had at least a million health so he wouldn't get killed so easily. If he wasn't killed, it meant that Lin Wan Er wouldn't take damage either.

Before Xing Huo launched his second wave of attacks, I had charged from the side and activated Icy Wings. My body shone golden and I used the level 19 God technique Wind Carrying Slash. "Pu pu pu", the sword left streaks of blood on Xing Huo's body. A total of 15 swords pierced through. Xing Huo fell back to the ground and knelt in a deep hole. He looked at me in rage, "Li Xiao Yao, you want to kill us!?"

I looked down on him and smiled, "Such a person like you is better off dead. Your arrogance has caused your 200 thousand Flame Lion Mercenary Group to die. I don't plan to release any of you. None of you can return to Waterfront City and all of you will be buried here!"

"Wishful thinking!"

Xing Huo stood up and his face was covered in green veins, "Flame Lion Mercenary Group won't be defeated like this, wait and see!"

"Right, I am waiting!"

My sword pointed at the dense Waterfront City, "Brothers of Tian Ling City, kill them and don't keep any of them alive!"

In the crowd, Floating Clouds appeared but around her were many Azure Ocean Army NPC troops so it was really tough to kill her. I landed on the ground while Li Mu, Wang Jian and Old K led the Furnace God Cavalry over to charge. The system recognised that I was attacking the Waterfront City so players gained points and experience from killing them. The only thing was that no equipment was dropped but that didn't matter. The gain from this was to be able to crush Waterfront City's NPC army before the country war. With that, Clear Black Eyes would have nothing to rely on.

...

Cannons fired in the forest but pretty much all of them were from Tian Ling City. Waterfront City's Flame Dragon Cannons and Flame Dragon Cannons were all left in the small path and now they could only use their bodies to block the cannon fire. At the same time, I contacted Mu Xuan, Ye Lai and Misty Clouds. I even contacted Fang Ge Que and Q-Sword for them to lead members over. In a short time, Clear Black Eyes and Drunk Maple would naturally come over to assist. If we don't make preparations, Clear Black Eyes and her army would start clearing out our 11 million NPC army.

Furnace God Cavalry swept the crowd. Along with Royal Army's heavy cavalry, Azure Ocean Army and Flame Lion Army were in despair. Half an hour later, another Waterfront City group appeared in our field of sight. It was their Royal Army and a general from the group shouted, "Don't panic, I am here. Warriors charge and let Tian Ling City taste Waterfront City's Royal Army's might!"

This shout immediately attracted death as Long Xing and Autumn Leaf both raised their blades, "Royal Army charge along with me and let these Waterfront City Royal Army troops know what is a truly invincible Royal Army!"

Horse hooves stepped across and that Waterfront City Royal Army General laid in the grass covered in blood. He just died on the battlefield like that.

Strong troops along with heavy cannons assisting. All of a sudden we had the upper hand. Xing Huo and Floating Clouds were finally gathered together and they tried to breakthrough. After paying a huge price, they finally opened a breach. 30 thousand of them tried to break through and they looked like they were planning to give up the 300 thousand brothers behind them.

"General, should we chase?" Han Yuan asked.

I looked into the distance and said, "This is Three Blade Mountain there is no need. Lin Qiong has 100 thousand elites there, Floating Clouds and Xing Huo definitely won't be able to flee!"

Han Yuan was shocked, "General gave Lin Qiong such an important location, do you trust him so much?"

I nodded, "En, I trust Lin Qiong. If you use someone, don't doubt them."

"Okay!"

...

Not long later, as expected, Drunk Maple and Clear Black Eyes led their men and appeared outside of Deer Forest. Behind them, there was a dense number of Waterfront City players. This did look uncertain. However, we had enough Dragon Crystal Cannons and just fired them. To prevent them from saving the NPC army, we went all out. After an hour, finally, Fang Ge Que, Q-Sword, Ye Lai and Misty Clouds arrived. It was as if a country war was about to begin.

Right at that moment, there was a horn and a huge group of cavalry arrived. Lin Qiong held his bloodstained sword and laughed, "Marshal Li, we are victorious at Three Blade Mountain and have captured Xing Huo and Floating Clouds. We have killed their men so what should we do next?"

I was delighted, "Bring them back to Tian Ling City! The battle here is pointless now. Let's scatter."

"Yes!"

Looking behind, after Xia Yu Army, Fire Dragon Army and Royal Army gathered, few of Waterfront City's 400 thousand remained. When I hugged Lin Wan Er and arrived in the forest, Tan Taiyu smiled, "The Executor, we have killed most of them but there is a 3000+ men group that are still fleeing."

"Oh, let me take a look."

"Yes!"
