Chapter 499 - 469: The Candidate for Deputy City Lord of Radiant City
Pool of Radiance Demon Camp, the piercing alarm sounded, the Demon Army densely packed on the city walls was ready for battle.
Indeed, when Da Fei saw the city walls, the Demon Army on the walls of course also saw Da Fei’s ship. They were all large in size, so there was no reason for them not to see it. It’s just that the distant solo sail couldn’t be seen very clearly.
Lei Huolong and other studio members stood on the wall, raising their telescopes to watch attentively. Although the specific situation was unclear, the glaring red characters "Da Fei (Flying)" still inevitably shocked everyone’s hearts.
"It’s Da Fei, his big ship is indeed still here!"
"F*ck! This Da Fei is too successful, isn’t he? One big ship here, and another two big ships in the city!"
"Hah, that ship won’t last long, it won’t be bouncing around for much longer."
"What is he doing? Is he here to scout? Even if he scouts, what could he do?"
Lei Huolong said indifferently, "Whether he scouts or not, the wall is right here, unchanged!"
Everyone applauded, "Captain, what a great poem you’ve chanted!"
Looking at Da Fei’s ship lingering in the distance, not daring to approach, then slowly disappearing from view, Lei Huolong’s mind was filled with thoughts. What would Da Fei think when he saw this lineup? Panic? Despair? After all, amateur players are just amateur players, they can be arrogant for a while thanks to their initial lucky advantage, but ultimately they are nothing special, powerless to continue!
Speaking of which, from the first Pool of Radiance battle, the boss had arranged for him to contact Da Fei, himself the top techie player in the China Region and top player of Hell, had to humbly call him "Brother Fei," and then rely on him to recruit Elite Hell Hounds and break through the situation, finally achieving significant results. When it came to international competitions, the boss still required him to greet Da Fei and ask for his favor, even during competitions, not only his guild, the other two large guilds also imperceptibly regarded Da Fei as the secondary core.
Why? Just because this upstart’s early advantage was too dazzling!
Lei Huolong had always been developing under Da Fei’s shadow, whether it was his pride as a professional player or his jealousy as a game player, he always had unsettled feelings in his heart.
But now, everything was going to end! He was finally going to step out of Da Fei’s shadow. Suddenly, a long-gestated feeling of frustration in Lei Huolong’s chest also came bursting out! Along with it, came the exhaustion of staying up for three days and three nights! After all, there’s nothing more exhilarating in life than seeing your opponent struggle hopelessly, hahaha!
Right at this moment, a message-bearing Demon approached, "Sir Lei Huolong, Execution Officer Nakasha has an urgent summons for you!"
Lei Huolong immediately headed to the giant spider, saying nothing, "What are the commands, my lord?"
After a silent moment, Nakasha began with a subdued voice, "Some very bad news, Demon Eye Governor Agarlon, sent by Lord Demon King to inspect the front lines, may have died; I can’t even feel his Soul Mark anymore. Assuming the worst, his soul might have been erased!"
The whole team was in an uproar, "No way? How could such a powerful and sneaky Magic Eye be killed?"
Lei Huolong was even more shocked, eyes widening, "Dead? Soul erased? Does that mean even the Demon King can’t resurrect him?"
Nakasha nodded heavily, "Exactly! He’s gone for good! It’s a pity; he was just a step away from becoming a hero, soon to be the brightest new star of the Magic Eye family. The Demon King had planned to cultivate him here, he was a highly trusted favorite of Lord Demon King. His death, I don’t know how it will enrage the Demon King! Anyway, we must respond to Lord Demon King’s rage; we must wage a war of revenge soon!"
Lei Huolong exclaimed, "My lord! We can’t! Since we set this siege tactic, we simply don’t have the capability to launch an attack anytime soon! We don’t have ships, nor are the webs ready!"
Nakasha said sternly, "Do not speak such words to me! How about this, I’ll grant you an audience with Lord Demon King, and you can explain your reasons yourself!"
Lei Huolong despairingly, "Why me?"
Nakasha, with its eight spider eyes focusing together from above, looking down, "Of course, you! Because you were the one who encouraged that lord to scout the front lines!"
Lei Huolong hurriedly said, "But I never expected anyone could kill him! Who could have imagined Elves could be so powerful!"
Nakasha murmured, "Indeed, no one expected Elves to reach such a level—perhaps that’s another reason to urge the Demon King to calm down, or perhaps a reason to escalate the war. We need a more powerful army, higher-end troops!"
Lei Huolong suddenly realized! Indeed! This war has been so conservative; ultimately, the Demon King is reluctant to transfer other strategic elite troops! Right, this is an opportunity! This giant spider is truly a demon; what bad news? Clearly, it’s the best situation!
Good job, Da Fei! Truly great merchandise there, but as impressive as you are, a rotten pool can’t withstand the true elite troops of the Demon Race!
Lei Huolong took a deep breath, "My lord, leave it to me! If the fury of the Demon King’s vengeance cannot be soothed, I will find a way to persuade the Demon King to send a more powerful siege army!"
