Everyone was stunned as nearly all the mages from The King Family were wiped out.
However, Gaedashira wasn't doing well either. As it charged forward, it was hit with intense firepower from all sides, and in the blink of an eye, its health had dropped by over 20 million.
"Blow that giant worm to pieces!" Nightshade shouted as it sent the last remaining self-destructing battleship back to the stronghold.
The self-destruct ship slammed into Gaedashira's dragon wing with a powerful crash. The hatch opened, and dozens of goblin explosives engineers climbed out, howling in excitement.
Madman yelled, "Get the hell away from it, don't blow yourselves up!"
Nightshade grinned fiercely, "For the King of Waga, for Godslayer!"
Nightshade had calculated the moment Gaedashira's Body Domination would end, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with a dangerous gleam. "Come at me, just try it!"
"Waga!"
"Explode! Explode!"
The goblins let out terrifying howls, and under the guidance of the Waga Apostles, they prepared to face death in battle. They were born to create chaos and devastation!
The goblins' green bodies rapidly swelled, and a deafening explosion shattered the air, creating a deep crater in the ground.
Critical Damage - 5,000,000!
Bleeding - 10,000!
Bleeding - 10,000!
Gaedashira let out a mournful cry as it collapsed into the deep crater, dragon blood spilling everywhere. One of its wings and a claw were blown off, leaving irreparable bleeding wounds. It would only stop bleeding once its next Body Domination cooldown ended.
"The ants should crawl under the claws of a true dragon! Die!" The Flame Dragon, Furnace Greed, roared in fury. It blasted through the spire in front of it before rushing to rescue its dragon mate.
Horrifying fire meteors rained down on the stronghold, and Furnace Greed's roar shook the heavens as its claws slaughtered the ants before it. In a split second, over a hundred guild knights were crushed to death while trying to protect their teammates.
The situation became chaotic once more, and Gaedashira, with only about 20 million health remaining, fled.
At that moment, Bradley quickly came to the rescue.
"Can we hold on?" Bradley asked Madman. Stewart stood behind him, constantly healing and buffing Ruby and the others.
Despite Bradley and Ruby's attack power reaching over 5,000, they still felt worn out against the massive, high-health Earth Dragon legions.
At this point, the battle was no longer something that could be won by individual strength alone.
"Hold on for ten more minutes, then we'll kill that bastard when he returns!" Madman gritted his teeth.
Godslayer's guild could quickly revive using the stronghold's fountain, but the problem was that their allies had to start over from scratch, making their defense even weaker. If the other three Earth Dragons and the dragon soldiers breached their defenses, Bone Dragon Stronghold wouldn't last more than a few minutes.
"Opportunity's here! Kill!"
The players from Sky Wolf and Rattlesnake, who had previously been killed by the goblin explosions, rushed forward again. When they saw large amounts of white light pouring out from the stronghold, they immediately realized this was the perfect time to strike!
Sky Wolf's forces now had over twenty silver battle chariots, each pulled by two magic horses. These chariots were expensive—costing 2,000 gold each—and boasted 500,000 health.
Players could control them to deal massive area-of-effect damage with trampling, tearing, and armor-piercing effects, and they also had good mobility, making them ideal for breaking enemy cavalry formations.
Empress fumed, "These bastards are taking advantage of the chaos!"
The Moonlight Guild's knights stood at the forefront, and dozens of magic-powered battle chariots slammed into them, delivering considerable damage.
But behind them was an army of over 10,000 other guild players, all hoping to seize the richest part of the battlefield during the confusion.
From afar, the SSR guild members showed their fangs. Reaver smirked coldly. "Can we go now, boss?"
Wedge's eyes glinted with cold light as he raised his hand, summoning a hundred golden battle chariots.
Sky Wolf-Black Moon grumbled, "What the hell? These are 30-level hero chariots! 8,000 gold each!"
Sky Wolf and Rattlesnake were shocked by the lavish display from SSR.
Empire Technology · Type 2 Enchanted Battle Chariot
SSR Guild Owned
Quality: Hero
HP: 800,000
Attack Power: 3,000
Skills: Multi-Crossbow, Crushing Charge, Rapid Maneuver
DonutWizard couldn't help but laugh. "What? Self-destruct battleships are impressive? Let me show you what a real magical vehicle looks like!"
Compared to the silver chariots of Sky Wolf, these golden chariots were an upgraded version, and their performance was far superior. Not only could they charge into battle, but they were also equipped with powerful crossbows that could hit targets up to 100 meters away.
"Let's take Bone Dragon Stronghold first." Wedge said casually.
With that, Reaver led the SSR guild members into the fray, charging toward the stronghold on their golden chariots.
"80,000 gold worth of chariot army, this is just absurd..."
"We're finished, the Godslayer guild leaders are clueless!"
"If I had known this would be the situation, I wouldn't have been so quick to sell off the stronghold."
"Triple Crown winner is so smart, huh? I think he knew they were going to lose, that's why he abandoned the guild. Otherwise, why isn't he showing his face?"
The situation turned sharply. Godslayer was being attacked on all fronts, and the live chat was flooded with mocking comments. The moderators were going insane trying to control the barrage of sarcastic messages.
SirLagsALot sighed, ignoring the jeers in the chat, and told the moderators to leave it alone.
The more they banned people, the more the drama would build.
Over a hundred player-controlled battle chariots stormed toward them.
Empress of the Moon and her team fought desperately to hold the line, but the sound of metal clashing echoed as Godslayer's knights surrounded the attackers in a desperate attempt to contain them. However, in the first exchange, more than twenty knights were knocked down by the chariots, their armor torn apart and quickly finished off by the crossbow fire.
Iron Cavalry yelled, "Damn, the armor is weakened by 50%, we're losing health way too fast!"
Empress furrowed her brow in frustration. "Why hasn't that guy shown up yet?"
One of the legendary warriors in Moonlight Guild, a wealthy player, spoke up. His mood was sour as he realized that, despite all their efforts, they were trapped in a losing battle.
Empress growled, tossing her spear with a violent twist, knocking one of the silver chariot users into the air before swiftly finishing him off with a series of strikes.
But even with her strength, there was nothing she could say in response to the wealthy player's complaints.
Regional Announcement: Player Orgod, fighting valiantly against the demons, has eradicated the magical threat lurking outside Saint Maiden City and will be immortalized on the Empire's Monument!
Reward: 150 Free Attribute Points, 200 Skill Points.
When the regional announcement appeared, players who had witnessed the Bone Dragon battle were stunned.
"Damn it! Is he still grinding?!"
SSR-DrinkingMachine: "My God, our homes are about to be destroyed, and he's still doing quests?! What kind of heartless person is he?"
SSR-Fingers: "You see? This guy never planned on winning. He's just afraid of losing his gear/levels, so he's ignoring the stronghold!"
SSR-Toes: "No one knows Orgod like we do in SSR."
The world chat was filled with SSR players mocking Godslayer, making it clear they were the ones winning the war of words.
Moonlight Guild - Ronin: "You guys still fighting? Your guild leader isn't even participating, what does that say about you?"
The King Family - God of Wealth: "Honestly, you guys are pushing it. ShatteredCrown has revived three times, but your leader is still nowhere to be seen?"
Soon, Wedge's psychological tactics began to take effect, causing cracks to appear in the alliance's morale.
Though two of the Flame Dragons were temporarily repelled, only one spire remained.
Madman remained silent, fully aware that their enemies were trying to break the will of his forces with mind games.
"We only need to kill a few more monsters to trigger an achievement."
Orson ignored the world chat and continued collecting loot while setting up an Ice Prison Ring to farm monsters from a distance.
A moment later, another regional announcement appeared!
Regional Announcement: Player Orgod has killed 150,000 monsters and is recognized for his extraordinary demon-slaying achievements!
Achievement Unlocked: [Savior of the Empire] Reward: 10,000 Gold, Low-level Noble Title (Selectable).
Orson sighed in relief, immediately selecting the noble title as his reward.
