Chapter 832 - 785: Greedy NPCs
Facing his large-scale spell being countered for the second time, Siriel was once again taken aback, then burst into wild laughter: "Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous, as a Mage, to waste an opportunity on something so trivial! In the end, your massive team has become your burden. Do you really think having a superior number of troops ensures my defeat?"
This self-assured boast immediately reignited Ma Yinglong’s confidence from his previous despair! Indeed, many Mage players around the world go solo without any troops, employing a hit-and-run strategy. Such Mages are bothersome, like flies, as their low-level spells pose no threat to Lord Players when they are poorly equipped. However, once a Mage reaches Siriel’s level, they genuinely become the nightmare of Lord Players.
When Siriel speaks in such a manner, it means he has the intelligence and confidence to harass and wear down enemy troops solo. Indeed, in this lava home ground, any professional player could use a powerful and teleporting Mage like Siriel to outmaneuver enemies ten or even a hundred times stronger.
The Banshee also laughed: "Sorry, we didn’t know it was the teacher here. We’re just here for a tentative attack, not confident we could defeat the teacher in this environment. However, since we happened to encounter the teacher, I think we can talk!"
Siriel laughed arrogantly: "Talk about what? Surrendering to you?"
The Banshee replied with a laugh: "I believe nothing can make a mentor who dared to leave the Hell Camp surrender. But I also think my army and a mentor detached from the Camp shouldn’t continue hostilities. At the very least, peaceful coexistence shouldn’t be an issue, right?"
Siriel laughed wildly: "Deirdre, as a Demon, what you say is truly amusing! Although I’ve left the Hell Camp, my race remains Demon. Demons achieve peace not through negotiations but by using power to subdue the opponent. That’s demon peace, true permanent peace! If you seek peace, then overpower me; it’s as simple as that!"
Deirdre chuckled: "Sorry, teacher! I may not be a Demon anymore, so my thoughts have changed. I should have evolved into something more magical. This is something that, due to being a Mid-level Demon, you can’t teach me. But in any case, as my Hero’s Road mentor, I still respect you. To show respect, my army will retreat immediately!"
Banshee evolution? Upon hearing this not only the Dragon Slayer Command Center was stunned, but Siriel was also deeply shocked: "You’re not a Demon anymore? You say I have limitations?"
"Yes!" Out flew dozens of hot-bodied Banshees, with thin dragonfly wings and seemingly clad in a slick blue-and-white bodysuit, from Da Fei’s army. The one at the forefront, stepping on a blue Hero Aura, was Deirdre.
At this moment, the Dragon Slayer Command Center erupted in shock, and Siriel exclaimed: "Is that a Sea Demon?"
Deirdre laughed: "As expected of the teacher, but I’m not just a Sea Demon. My Spirit Body has been reconstituted by Light Divine Power, and much of the greed, jealousy, and other evil thoughts in my soul have been cleaned. Now I’m full of positive energy!"
Siriel said solemnly: "Divine Demon Body!"
Deirdre exclaimed: "Teacher! Even I didn’t know what I was, but your words have enlightened me! Please forgive my earlier rudeness. While the teacher has Mid-level Demon limitations, you remain knowledgeable! May I ask, teacher, what is the Divine Demon Body?"
Siriel shouted angrily: "Limitations be damned! You can all get lost now!"
The Banshee laughed: "Alright then, sorry to trouble the teacher."
At the same time, another voice from Da Fei’s army rose up: "Listen up, Mages on the other side, I am Anlicia, Deputy City Lord of Radiant City from the Elf Kingdom. We will accept the World Tree Space in the name of Radiant City. You do not belong to the Hell Power, and our army will take a cooperative approach for peaceful coexistence and friendly relations."
As she spoke, Da Fei’s army began to slowly retreat to the passage entrance. For a moment, the entire Dragon Slayer Command Center let out a huge sigh of relief.
Lei Huolong even said disappointedly: "Looks like there won’t be a fight. If it really came to it, we could take them out at any time!"
The other team members couldn’t help but feel relieved: "As long as we are given time to develop, next time we won’t leave them any chance to retreat."
"Exactly, this is the NPC crematorium. Let them come as much as they want; they’ll all end up dead."
Even Ma Yinglong couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Ultimately, staying in position is about defense first; proactive attacks like this usually don’t happen. In any case, we need to focus on growing. When Da Fei returns from the European Union, we can slowly discuss things with him. Our Dragon Slayer Guild helping him defeat his lineup’s unbeatable Demigod - he’s got to show us some respect for that. Someone too selfish doesn’t go far; Da Fei should understand this principle.
Then, the Deputy City Lord in Da Fei’s army continued: "At the same time, our army declares that the Mercury Mine space outside has been occupied and received by our army. You must not trespass. Trespassing is useless, as you cannot develop it. Even if you could, you can’t transport it out."
— Argh! Ma Yinglong spewed a mouthful of blood! Dragon Slayer Command Center burst into a scene of disbelief!
Damn it! These NPCs are downright despicable! If they were players and discovered, I’d tear them apart!
Lei Huolong exclaimed urgently: "President, we can’t let Da Fei get away with the Demigod we worked so hard to defeat! We need to launch our attack!"
Ma Yinglong shouted angrily: "Quickly, ask the NPCs to make a move and take the scene!"
Lei Huolong hurriedly ran to Siriel and cried: "Mentor, we can’t let the Elf Kingdom take the Mercury Mine we fought for. We need to reclaim it!"
Siriel asked solemnly: "You say, my former student has surpassed me. Do I truly have limitations?"
Lei Huolong shouted in anger: "Limitations my ass! We have to go out and kill them, burn them, rob them!"
Siriel, however, said to himself: "Perhaps she has a point. My strength is insufficient, so I can’t see my own limitations. To see one’s limitations, one must first reach their limits. So, everyone, train hard and become stronger before the next challenge arrives. Then you can kill as you like."
Speaking, Siriel disappeared into the lava once more.
Lei Huolong was almost in tears: "Damn it! By the time we get strong, Da Fei would’ve already mined all the Mercury!"
At this moment, the Dragon Slayer Guild was silent, and Ma Yinglong was speechless.
Before, Dragon Slayer helped Da Fei build a free city wall around the lake, and Ma Yinglong continued friendly relations with Da Fei while swallowing his pride. Now, Dragon Slayer helped Da Fei defeat a Demigod and open the mine. Where can you find such great allies from China? The Japan area’s camouflaged undercover doesn’t even come close!
— Argh! The more Ma Yinglong thought about it, the more tangled he became, spewing another mouthful of blood...
