Chapter 564 - 530: Breaking the Flood
The Demon Camp at the Pool of Radiance rumbled as the ground quaked, and a thunderous roar echoed through the underground space. A gale carrying icy water vapor howled throughout! Everything felt as if a dam had released its floodgates!
The guarding team immediately raised the alarm, "Flood incoming!"
Flood! The entire Star Command Center rose in shock! Was this flood caused by magic or a world event? If it was magic, the power was horrifying! If it was a world event, then from today, the game map would have to be rewritten!
Of course, now wasn’t the time to think about this issue. If the flood truly came, not even a hundred thousand demons, let alone a million, would escape being washed away like ants! This battle would see the Dragon Slayer Guild utterly defeated!
Ma Yinglong’s face turned green as he trembled, "Quick! Notify all units to climb the city walls!"
"Understood!"
There was no need to announce; all the demon soldiers instinctively sensed the danger and scrambled up the walls in a frenzy!
The deafening noise grew closer, the gale intensified, and finally, it appeared!
From behind the lava factory in the Demon Camp, a white water dragon roared downward, its massive wind pressure raising a storm of sand and dust, instantly darkening the view!
The demon army atop the first line of walls panicked, shouting together as they desperately squeezed to either side of the walls!
—Boom!!! A massive crash, and the lava factory standing before the flood instantly crumbled!
The entire Dragon Slayer Command Room erupted in shock!
The flood demolished the lava factory, sweeping away building debris and silt as it flattened the Demon Camp, then roared towards the city wall!
At this moment, Ma Yinglong helplessly closed his eyes! The scene must’ve been beautiful, but Ma Yinglong dared not look!
—Boom! Crash!!! With a sound of utter destruction, the first dozen sections of city wall collapsed! Hundreds of demon soldiers who couldn’t escape were swept into the lake by the massive waves!
At this moment, the entire Dragon Slayer Command Room fell deathly silent!
And just then, an immense roar echoed underground as a colossal beast resembling a battleship, with the shape of a giant crocodile but wings on the side, appeared!
"Wow!!!" The Dragon Slayer Command Center exploded again, "A monster is coming!"
This massive beast emitted an engine-like roar, vibrating its giant wings as it approached with unimaginable speed, ignoring the dense crowd of demon soldiers on the walls, charging directly through the gap in the flood-breached wall, into the Pool of Radiance, and vanished from the monitor’s sight!
Watching the behemoth’s elegant figure, Ma Yinglong was stunned, "Is this, a seaplane?"
But a team member quickly reacted, "It’s Leviathan! President, this is the legendary Leviathan! Ultimate sea divine beast!"
"Leviathan? If it’s Leviathan, it couldn’t possibly be reinforcements from the Elf Kingdom!"
"President, we haven’t lost yet! If Leviathan charges in, the Elf Kingdom is definitely doomed!"
Hopefully! Ma Yinglong sank back into his seat.
At this moment, the surroundings of the entire Demon Camp were submerged in water, all supplies and military equipment washed away by the flood, the hundred thousand demon army trapped on a narrow island in the middle, isolated without help, survival hanging by a thread!
Ma Yinglong couldn’t fathom why their advantageous position had suddenly turned into such a mess. If this battle was lost, the loss for the Dragon Slayers wasn’t just colossal money; it was the first opportunity to enter the New World! If they lost this first opportunity, the consequences were unimaginable, the China Region would be bashed by other regions!
They couldn’t lose! Even if it meant mutual destruction, they couldn’t let Dragon Slayer lose alone! In case of mutual destruction, Dragon Slayer could still unite with Star to fight valiantly in the New World, but once Star rose too high, alliance would be impossible, and Dragon Slayer striving to make a name in the world would be challenging!
At this moment, Ma Yinglong gritted his teeth and placed all hope on the mysterious Leviathan.
...
In the Elf Kingdom Staff Department, their victory over the Flame Demon didn’t prompt much celebration as the advance of an unknown powerful creature left all officers solemn.
"Report to the elder, our army secured a major victory, the Spider Demon troops began retreating!"
The Great Elder said in a deep voice, "Very well, their retreat is inevitable, immediately notify Lord Aries, there’s no need to chase the remnants, focus fully on countering the powerful creature threat!"
"Report, Great Elder, the latest monitoring report shows that the powerful creature instantly opened up the underground lake of Nimya and the channel of its underground river, a large amount of lake water has entered the Pool of Radiance, all demon factories have lost operational reaction, they may have been flooded!"
The entire command post erupted in shock, "What kind of creature has such power?"
"It means the siege by the demon army was neutralized by the flood?"
"If conditions allow, our army should take advantage of this opportunity to counterattack, slaughter the demons swept away by the flood!"
Eternal Star on the scene was in utter disbelief! Was this a map-changing event? This was definitely not done by us, and certainly not the Dragon Slayers either. Was this Da Fei’s doing? Had he planned this breakthrough method from the start by being lackadaisical in the defense? Is this Da Fei’s level? While our guild battled like fools in the city, this is how it turned out? At this moment, Eternal Star was full of mixed emotions and deep-seated resentment.
The Great Elder said in a deep voice, "Wait and see, do not act rashly!"
...
At Radiant City, the Spider Demon Legion, without the aid of the Flame Demon, was no match for Legendary Hero Aeris, the Spider Demons scrambling along silk paths up towards the top, retreating, with countless caught in retreat becoming the sacrificed rear guard.
At this moment, Radiant City was strewn with the corpses of Spider Demons and Jade Dragons, and as the final victors who could revive their army without loss, that was the victor’s right, the penalty for failed sieges!
Da Fei’s mind was naturally not on this destined victory. He was manipulating Little Fei to monitor the far distance from Radiant City!
Finally, it arrived! A huge red dot on the radar rushed towards Radiant City with incredible speed!
This was the adult Leviathan! Da Fei’s heart shook, immediately shouting to Alicia, who donned Elena’s divine equipment once more, "It’s here, attack!"
Alicia downed the Mana Potion in her hands, took a deep breath, and then waved!
—System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Alicia unleashed God-level Arcane Magic "Summoning Mist"!
The water vapor on the lake surface began to rise, instantly enveloping the entire Radiant City! Indeed, Alicia’s magical power approached 200 points with the two sets of divine equipment she wore, plus the elemental domain special effect, adding 30% spell power, the mist effect was incomparable to before!
Of course, the purpose of releasing mist was merely to prevent Radiant City from standing out and enraging Leviathan into destroying the city immediately. Da Fei had a second tactical move, that was to assist Leviathan in battling the Demon Clan Water Monster, and show it that "we are allies"!
If this divine beast were intelligent, Da Fei would try to pin all on the Demon Race, telling it that they brought the egg to assault the city, and it had nothing to do with him, he was a good guy!
In summary, this was the emergency response devised by Da Fei’s think tank. How reliable was it? Not a question worth asking. Did Da Fei have any other choice? (To be continued.
