Ignoring the roar of fury of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon and ignoring the admiring glances of over two hundred thousand players, Xie Feng and Yao Mei looked at each other in silence. Each of them, even without speaking, knew very well what the other wanted to represent just by looking at each other.
It was a look of provocation but at the same time of praise.
From the point of view of both of them, the fact that the other could move in such a way in the face of the unimaginable pressure exuded by an Immortal-grade beast and be able to make precise attacks was worthy of praise. To be able to react at the exact moment, to dodge, and to counterattack was something that might sound simple but that 99.9% of people could not do in the face of such great pressure.
Although Xie Feng’s mask would cover his entire face, his eyes could still be seen through the mask’s slit, therefore, after Yao Mei gave him a last glance, she turned her attention back to the boss.
Xie Feng, with an indifferent and casual look, attacked again as well.
The sound of explosions, roars, and the sound of arrows, swords, spears hitting the hard scales of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon echoed throughout the battlefield. No monster dared to approach the place for fear of the pressure that approximately two hundred thousand players and a high-grade beast exuded.
After five minutes of battle, the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon had lost a total of approximately 100,000 health. However, the price everyone paid was much greater than that. In a span of just five minutes, over 70,000 players were mercilessly slaughtered!
When players tried to sneak in through the back, a wave of the boss’s tail was enough to end the lives of hundreds. When players approached to attack in melee, a single stomp from the beast was enough to kill thousands of players!
Worst of all, although Shiva and Yao Mei could cause great damage, both could not stop the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon’s footsteps. Every time the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon took a step forward, both of them had no choice but to retreat in a hurry. As a result, the boss was getting closer and closer to the city gates.
All the players were terrified and finally everyone had no choice but to understand the hard way that in the face of absolute power, numbers were nothing more than a joke; although an anthill could have millions of ants, a single person was enough to end the lives of all of them. This was the same case that happened against the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon currently.
“Sorry, we’re a little late.” One Man Army, Mu Wuying, Gu Qianxue, Xie Yao, and Red Snow finally arrived at the north gate and met with Yao Zenyu and the other commanders in charge of defending this area.
Yao Zenyu was frowning deeply while he watched the battle and only noticed everyone’s arrival when they arrived next to him.
“No. By the way, what happened to your zones?” Yao Zenyu asked.
“The south gate is still battling the fifth wave monsters but only the elder brother Yang will stay there. He said he could stop the remaining monsters by himself so all the survivors of the south gate are on their way here. We arrived earlier because of our mounts.” Gu Qianxue replied as she surveyed the battlefield. “What a disaster…” She couldn’t help but comment as she saw millions of corpses lying all over the place.
“The players at the east gate are also still fighting. At least, I don’t think it’s possible for them to come here.” One Man Army replied when he realized that Mu Wuying’s gaze was fixed on the battlefield, too distracted to answer Yao Zenyu’s question.
“I see… The defenders of the west gate are still fighting as well.” Yao Zenyu nodded, finally understanding the situation. But, seeing Mu Wuying’s gaze fixed on Shiva’s back, he frowned slightly; however, this only lasted for a second before returning to normal.
From Yao Zenyu’s point of view, due to certain events in the past, it was absolutely impossible for Mu Wuying to be in love with someone else. Although he knew that Mu Wuying was Xie Feng’s girlfriend a few years ago, Yao Zenyu assumed that she was doing it to go against her family’s wish.
“That monster looks strong…” Gu Qianxue couldn’t help but mutter. She took a step forward and cast a Dark Arrow.
Bang! -324
“Wha-…” Gu Qianxue’s eyes widened and a look of disbelief shone in them. Her magic damage had practically been reduced by more than half!
“Forget it, Gu Qianxue.” Yao Zenyu looked at the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon and frowned. “My physical attack damage is also extremely pathetic. It’s not worth taking the risk of attracting that beast’s agro… For now, we can only rely on those two.”
Everyone’s gaze was firmly fixed on the back of the adult man and the teenage girl who were fighting shoulder to shoulder, trying to keep the giant beast’s movements at bay as they slowly drained its life.
After another five minutes, another hundred thousand life points were taken. However, the price to pay for the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon not yet reaching the city gate was the lives of over 80,000 players!
There were only about 40,000 players left alive outside the north gate!
‘This won’t do.’ Xie Feng shook his head internally as he stabbed again at the giant body of the monster that was causing chaos and claiming the lives of the players as if they were nothing more than toys.
After ten minutes of battle in total, just over 220,000 life points of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon were consumed. However, 99% of that damage was caused by Yao Mei and Xie Feng’s combined attacks. Although cooperation between the two was difficult at first since they had just met for the first time, after fighting for a few minutes they both became much more in sync.
When Xie Feng attacked, Yao Mei attracted the attention of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon and dodged its attacks. When Yao Mei attacked, Xie Feng acted as bait. When the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon made an area attack, both would immediately retreat and without saying a word, both charged forward at the same time.
However, Xie Feng quickly realized that this was not enough. Not only did Xie Feng notice it, Yao Mei had a small frown on her face as well and seemed to be hesitating about something.
“Watch out!” Xie Feng suddenly shouted.
Yao Mei, who had been distracted for a moment, was taken by surprise and as she looked forward, her pupils contracted to the size of a needle. The Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon’s fist was only a few centimeters away and there was no way she could react.
Yao Mei’s HP was much lower than that of Xie Feng and Yang Tian. In fact, her HP was not much higher than that of a normal warrior; it was impossible for Yao Mei to survive a hit that caused 3000 points of fixed damage!
Bang!
However, instead of being hit by a giant fist, Yao Mei was surprised to find herself being sent flying after being hit by Xie Feng’s shoulder.
Bang! -3000!
“Ugh….” Xie Feng was sent flying over ten meters and his health bar dropped by more than half. The STR difference was so great that he couldn’t help but groan in pain after receiving such a head-on attack.
Seeing this, the surrounding players cried out loudly and a look of panic appeared in everyone’s eyes. If Shiva was killed here, then it was over! It was impossible for them to win!
On the other hand, Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, and Mu Wuying were so frightened that their faces turned pale. It was as if Xie Feng was really going to die in the real world and not in the virtual world; that’s how strongly they were worried about him.
Just as Mu Wuying was about to use a skill, she saw Xie Feng standing up and drinking a big health recovery potion, recovering almost all of his HP again.
Yao Mei also stood up and for a split second her eyes shivered lightly. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something but before she could even say a single word, Xie Feng interrupted her.
“Hey, little princess of the Yao family!” Ignoring Yao Mei’s small frown, Xie Feng hurriedly avoided the incoming attack of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon and shouted out loud, “Can you hold it back for a few seconds? I will be releasing a very strong attack, but I need time to prepare!”
“If you only need a few seconds, leave it to me then.” A heavenly voice joined the conversation uninvited.
Looking back, Xie Feng saw Kali slowly moving forward. Xie Feng had completely forgotten her! Unconsciously, Xie Feng frowned and felt that voice was familiar, however, he soon put those thoughts aside and focused on the task in front of him.
“I can only stop it for at most, twenty seconds.” Kali pointed out. Then, she embraced the majestic scepter with both hands and two words came out of her mouth softly.
“Absolute Word!”
Immediately afterwards, millions of silver threads invisible to the naked eye surrounded the entire battlefield and, according to Kali’s intention, moved towards the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon.
“Kneel!”
Bang!
Under everyone’s shocked gaze, the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon knelt on the ground as if a building was pressing down on its shoulders!
However, before everyone could comprehend what was happening, Kali’s voice sounded across the battlefield again:
“Prostrate!”
Bang!
As if Kali’s words were God’s decree, the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon’s head struck the ground with a bang, making it tremble!
