Chapter 157 -152: The Farce of Internal Conflict
The Pool of Radiance, the final battle of the national war began!
At the top of the World Tree, countless level 0 soldier bees hummed down with a sound that shook the earth, engaging in a deadly fight with the Spider Demon Army entrenched at the ground peak. Numerous soldier bees struggled and died in the webs, while a large number of Spider Demons were shot down into the lake of the Pool of Radiance, turning into mist.
In reality, soldier bees were neutral creatures, just like the sap-sucking beetles Da Fei initially encountered, and strictly speaking, they couldn’t even be considered troops because they lacked intelligence. Creatures without intelligence, like the Crossbow Tower, could not be led by heroes. The Elf Kingdom also couldn’t cultivate soldier bees en masse like Flower Demons. So, the soldier bees in this final battle were the Elf Kingdom’s old stock accumulated over many years.
Level 0 soldiers were a very special existence; they were an unbeatable trump card when used well, but mere cannon fodder when not. The soldier bees might not necessarily be a match for the Spider Demons, but other than the soldier bees, the Elf Kingdom had no effective means to counter such creatures capable of climbing walls and roofs.
The battle among NPC creatures at the ground peak was in full swing, and the fight on the water surface of the Pool of Radiance was also fiery, with flames shooting up into the sky.
Entertainment media from around the world focused on this final battle. This was the first national war since the game opened, and also the first extremely tricky one, as one side was a plains overlord, and the other a jungle overlord, yet they started the duel in the unfamiliar domain of naval warfare.
For countries aspiring to achieve something on the water, this battle was also an incredibly important training material. For example, club teams from the US, UK, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands closely monitored the battlefield, with the United States observing at least 100 areas of the battleground.
Now, the Hellish Alliance Army had the powerful enlistment of neutral level 4 ranged Fire Element soldiers, fully suppressing the Elf Clan’s proud level 2 and 3 ranged soldiers, with a clear advantage!
The strategy of Star was to use the entire country’s strength to exhaust the opposition; even if their troop types were suppressed, they were determined to fight to the end, knowing that the Fire Element’s attack speed was its biggest shortfall, not entirely without a fighting chance. For a time, the World Channel was flooded with slogans like “Hot-Blooded!”, “Rise Up!”, “Fight to the End.”
At the very rear of the Hell Battlefield, a giant paddle ship, with its bulwark significantly higher than other ships, was surrounded so tightly by the ships of Indian and Chinese players that it couldn’t move.
That’s right, this was called card positioning! As long as the female hero was kept at the rear and couldn’t get to the battlefield, her safety wasn’t a concern. As for the frontline battle, there was no need to worry; with the level 4 Fire Element’s ranged attack and the level 6 Abyss Lord’s artillery and melee, if they still couldn’t win, then Japan could just blame themselves.
At this time, the idly card-positioned Chinese and Indian players stared blankly at each other.
Lei Huolong checked the time and decided to put on a show, provoking the Indian player Aamirhan, who had been staring at him: “I heard your Bollywood music and dance conquered the world? I don’t believe it!” Then, with a clap of his hands, several Chinese players jumped out and did a street dance.
India, in any domain, loved to compete with China, so dealing with Asan was straightforward and invariably worked.
Sure enough, a chorus of boos erupted from the Indian players! Aamirhan sneered, “You Chinese don’t even have your own dance! What else do you know besides jumping Korean dances? We’ll show you that the truly national is global!” With a clap of his hands, a group of India jumped into action!
“MUSIC!” the game’s built-in sound effects kicked in: “—So cold~~~ah, ah, ah, ah! The northeastern winter, northeastern winter da-da-da! I went to the northeast to play with mud!”
The Chinese players exclaimed in shock, jaws dropped! It turned out that right from the start, they unleashed the infinitely compatible Indian hit song “Playing with Mud in the Northeast!” What a brutal presence these Three Swordsmen were! (note: “Tunak Tunak Tun”)
With the music playing, other Three Swordsmen from various ships also began dancing in sync, re-enacting the classic Bollywood group song and dance! The Chinese players were utterly speechless, stunned into silence!
Some things you just had to acknowledge. Lei Huolong sighed deeply in shame, checked the time again, and spotted a giant paddle ship slowly approaching not far away. With a smirk in his heart, he thought, “Almost time, I will tell you, singing and dancing can conquer my heart, but cannot conquer the world!”
Just as the Indian players were dancing happily, there was a splash from the cluster of ships, and three colossal figures leapt onto the stage of the warship like sea dragons! All the Three Swordsmen turned their heads in astonishment.
A flash of knives: “We are the Rocket Team sailing through the sea!”
—Battlefield report: China Region player Blood Sea Wave killed India Zone player Bahadur, Bahadur’s troops were defeated!
Another flash of blades: “We are the most charming villains in history!”
—Battlefield report: China Region player Blood Sea Wave killed India Zone player Sanjay, Sanjay’s troops were defeated!
Blades flashing: “The white tomorrow awaits us!”
—Battlefield report: China Region player Blood Sea Wave killed India Zone player Aamirhan, Aamirhan’s troops were defeated!
“Battle! Depart!” With another splash, amidst the booming music, before anyone could react, the Three Swordsmen who had swiftly completed their kills jumped back into the water!
“Wow!!!” The entire audience roared!
And those three lines of information appearing on the battlefield channel caused a sensation across the entire battlefield and the global media watching the battlefield! How did this God-level hero from the China Region manage to simultaneously assassinate three players? Even though the truth might seem ridiculous after knowing it later, at the moment it was undoubtedly an astonishing feat!
Meanwhile, the outer China Region players and those mixed within the inner circle immediately started maneuvering their boats to ram and jostle the Indian Zone warships, and three Indian Zone warships were eliminated, losing control, finally, the previously tight formation was torn apart by Chinese players, causing the ships on both sides to mix and jolt violently, becoming unstable. The conspiracy of the Chinese players was blatantly obvious!
“Despicable Chinese!” the Indian players cursed angrily!
“Release the female hero, we’re still friendly neighbors!” Lei Huolong responded coldly to the insults!
“Don’t even think about it!”
“Then go die!”
With another splash, the Three Swordsmen emerged on the ship for the second time! For a pirate, the shaking of the ship was nothing compared to the storms at sea. So even when land troops of the same attributes met pirates at sea, they couldn’t win, there was no way!
—Battlefield report: China Region player Blood Sea Wave killed India Zone player Tripa, Tripa’s troops were defeated!
In the chaos, the decapitation began! Under the cover and distraction of Dragon Slayer, Blood Sea Wave jumped and darted, constantly decapitating players from the Indian Zone. The entire battlefield was once again ignited with passion by Blood Sea Wave! With a God-level Sea Battle Hero present, what was there to fear?
Now, the global focus was on this farce at the rear. The command centers of the Hellish Alliance Army countries, of course, knew what was going on, knowing from the start that the national war, involving the Chinese, was bound to be a farce! This farce had been performing since Ancient Tree Space, and they shouldn’t have come at all! But through sheer confusion, come they did, so saying “Shit” was pointless! Now, they could only take advantage of the current advantage to decisively capture the China Region’s Elf Clan.
The Indian command center was so angry they smashed tables and chairs, with Nehru even throwing his phone that couldn’t reach Ma Yinglong, directly to the floor!
Now, the Indian Zone had no choice but to make a painful decision to abandon the protection of the female hero. Immediately, various ships withdrew, but how could Dragon Slayer let them escape? More and more Chinese Region players surrounded them tightly—indeed! Dragon Slayer promised to achieve the heroic feat of Blood Sea Wave taking on a nation!
Now, the Indian Zone could bear it no more and had no choice but to actively PK the China Region! Internal strife began!
The world was in uproar! Although everyone knew this was a farce, no one expected it to escalate to this degree!
“Slay the red names!!!” all Hell Zone players of the China Region seemed pumped full of adrenaline, with Abyss Fireballs flying everywhere! For a moment, the most thrilling and hilarious battle for the Chinese was playing out at the very back of the battlefield! Compared to this farce, Star’s pessimistic tragedy was utterly weak!
Indeed, Ma Yinglong always managed to play a good hand with a bad deck, which was why he continued to lead Dragon Slayer as one of China’s three major guilds, standing tall and unshakeable!
While laughter filled the Dragon Slayer command headquarters—a deep cannon sound rang out! In the water, a white light shot into the sky.
—Battlefield report: Hell Camp NPC Hero Deirdre killed China Region player Blood Sea Wave!
The entire battlefield channel fell silent! This line of information remained before the world’s players for several seconds, then was instantly drowned out by countless scrolling messages!
That God-level hero just died like that? It was simply unbearable. The Dragon Slayer Guild had a bitter yet amused reaction. There was nothing they could do; they could plot at the player level, but they couldn’t control NPCs! It was a pity that once the hero fell, the dozens of pirate soldiers he brought were done for.
At this very moment, Deirdre’s warship moved, the recent PK melee had created a gap in the blockade around her. As an NPC who had accepted a mission, she decisively joined the battle!
This stunned both Lei Huolong and Ma Yinglong, leaving them with jaws dropped to the floor!
