Zhan Long-Chapter 1021: Fire Elephant Cavalry
"Heavenly Shield Wall!"
Drunken Spear's voice spread out from the Flying Dragon group. He stood at the front and swept his shield forwards to smash a Conquer the World Warrior aside. He then thrust his spear forwards and forced another cavalry back. He followed it up with a Thousand Layer Wave. He struck the group with the spear handle and a scorching wave spread forth. However, he was also attacked by a bunch of Sword Breaks which forced him to try to dodge. One person alone tanked 30% of their pressure.
Behind Drunken Spear was the main cavalry force of Flying Dragon, the Golden Wall Cavalry which was a really eye catching mount. Their armor was gold in color, a level 160 Valkryie Tier Boss Mount, defence +250%. In terms of Defence, they were much higher than Furnace God Cavalry, Hundred Abyss Cavalry and God Wind Cavalry. But there 12000 were unable to stop Conquer the World's main force.
I charged forwards and got the Conquer the World cavalry stats from Yue Qing Qian--
Fire Elephant Cavalry
Level 170 Divine Tier Boss Mount, health +27000, movement speed +440%, defence +160%, along with two skills, Scorch which dealt burn effects to targets around and the burn effect was the same as one basic attack each second. Flame Fortress, which greatly increased one's defence.
I was shocked and finally understood why Drunken Spear's 12000 Golden Wall Cavalry would be so weak. Fire Elephant Cavalry's Scorch was just too sick, it was the same as one hit on the opponent per second. People of similar stat range had no chance at all.
No, this Fire Elephant Cavalry's Scorch had to be passive so Furnace God Cavalry might not win them too!
I sent a message to Q-Sword, "Conquer the World's Fire Elephant Cavalry is too strong. I only have 10 thousand Furnace God Cavalry and am not their match. Bring your Hundred Abyss Cavalry over, let's crush their main cavalry force!"
Q-Sword didn't say much and just replied, "Ok!"
……
A few minutes later, the Hundred Abyss Cavalry came as planned and charged forwards with our Furnace God Cavalry.
In the distance, Drunk Maple's men were in the core area of Flying Dragon. Drunk Maple's attacks were really fierce and the four-star god weapon in his hands smashed onto Drunken Spear's shield. With a "peng", sparks flew. But Drunken Spear had healers and he was barely able to fight back, piercing Drunk Maple's legs to deal 30 thousand damage. Drunk Maple was stunned and didn't expect this cavalry to have such a high attack.
"You are asking for death!"
Drunken Spear was ranked 17th on the CBN so Drunk Maple probably didn't care about him. He thrust his sword forwards and used Crushing Stone Strike! This was an AOE attack that killed the two Flying Dragon players beside Drunken Spear. Drunken Spear continued to block but Drunk Maple followed it up with a sneak attack, the sword continued to show the particle effect of mountains shattering, Crushing Stone Thrust!
"Peng!"
"82102!"
Drunken Spear was shocked. His defence was one of the highest in China but he still lost so much health at once! This Crushing Stone Thrust had armor penetration and along with that of the weapon, it was expected that the Fire Swordsman could deal so much damage.
But Drunk Maple still underestimated Drunken Spear. When he was down to low health,
Drunken Spear left his horse and used Hundred Peak Jump Slash into the crowd to the right of Drunk Maple. He slashed and used Iron Spear Thrust to bring Drunk Maple's health down to 50%. When Drunk Maple got close, Drunken Spear used Rock Shield. Drunk Maple shouted, "Stop wasting time here, follow me. Let's kill Xiao Yao Zi Zai's Furnance God Cavalry!"
Drunken Spear naturally wasn't a person without brotherhood. He shouted while waving his spear, "Stick to them, attack, don't let them leave!"
The two sides clashed together once more.
……
"Peng peng peng..."
Zhan Long's Furnace God Cavalry finally clashed with them. There was a dense bunch of Fire Elephant Cavalry so one could imagine how painful the scorching effect was. I waved Butterfly and Zhen Yue Sword to kill dozens. At this point, many Furnace God Cavalry had fallen to the effect. Luckily their Quickness stunned them so we killed many more Fire Elephant Cavalry!
Q-Sword charged at the front of the Hundred Abyss Cavalry and forced a Conquer the World party leader. A sharp gaze flashed in his eyes and he used Fierce Tiger Burst on the person's chest. He then used Hundred Smelted Blades to kill him. The horse galloped forwards and he used a smart sidestep to dodge a Scattered Shot. His legs shone bright and his combo Six Directional Thunder exploded to insta kill another Conquer the World Flagbearer while also healing himself. He continued forwards and dodged while attacking. He perfectly showed the strength of the Battle Reflux Style!
Hundred Abyss Cavalry charged along with him and both sides entered the crucial moment of the battle. Along with Fire Elephant Cavalry falling, many Hundred Abyss Cavalry and Furnace God Cavalry fell too. Drunken Spear led the Soaring Dragon cavalry to charge from the back too and we surrounded them from three sides. One had to say that Drunk Maple was a strong general to actually last for half an hour like this. In the end, Fire Elephant Cavalry suffered heavy losses and he had no choice but to retreat.
The moment the Fire Elephant Cavalry retreated, we pushed forwards. Soaring Dragon thanked us as Q-Sword left to his camp. Zhan Long's Furnace God Cavalry continued forwards after losing 2000 men. Conquer the World was pushed back so now was our chance to gain points.
……
We continued forwards and arrived at Legend's camp. Fang Ge Que was on the front lines. His movement wasn't fast but the Scattered Shot that aimed at him were dodged. He waved his fan and used his killing spells into the crowd which turned the players into corpses. Moreover, the guild that was attacking them was the 5th guild of Waterfront City and was quite strong.
Fang Ge Que was a smart person and hid a large bunch of the God Wind Cavalry. He only sent Enchanted Painting, Lu Chunyang and Xuan Yuan Feng along with the Earth Bane Cavalry. Most of the God Wind Cavalry hid at the back, waiting for a good chance to strike.
In the end, Zhan Long's Furnace God Cavalry swept across and after killing thousands, Fang Ge Que released the God Wind Cavalry to chase. Only until he was at the border of Forest of Stars did he stop. Fang Ge Que was strong in his calmness, he wasn't affected by emotions and knew when to attack and retreat. This was the way of a king.
The battle of the Fire Marsh Plains was really intense. Both sides sent over 30 million players and after 4 hours, it dropped to 10 million. However, in the next 2 hours, we couldn't tell where Drunk Maple and Clear Black Eyes were.
It was obvious that they knew that they weren't our match so they were definitely planning something.
……
On Fire Marsh Plains. the Indian players retreated while we started to clear the battlefield. At this time, our bags were filled with equipment, especially the Furnace God Cavalry alongside me. All their bags were full. Old K's Greed effect had stacked to 300+, 4 times droprate, that was just terrifying!
I killed more than him and my 200% bloodthirst effect was full. Very good, I was invincible.
……
The bunch of us stood on Fire Marsh Plains to look at the players clean up the battlefield. I was bored so I opened the leaderboards. As expected, I was at the top--
1. Xiao Yao Zi Zai (China), points: 1342
2. Drunk Maple (India) points: 1123
3. Fang Ge Que (China) points: 1111
4. Clear Black Eyes (India) points: 1024
5. Cang Yue (China) points: 1002
6. Simple (China) points: 997
7. Q-Sword (China) points: 876
8. Jian Feng Han (China) points: 842
9. Cang Tong (China) points: 811
10. Thunder Bear (India) points: 791
……
Just from the leaderboard, one could see the tip of the iceberg. Only 3 were Indian players and the rest were from our side. In the overall score, they were slightly lower than us. So overall, this battle was a defeat for them--
China Region: 27632191
India Region: 25173731
……
But the gap wasn't huge and there was still time for changes!
Forest of Stars, Questioning Heaven Ice Plains, Fire Marsh Plains, Dragon Lake etc were huge and both sides could be contained within. The battle on the main battlefield ended quickly and next were small skirmishes. Both sides started to probe and provoke one another.
On the plains, the players from the guilds started to scatter. Legend, Hero Mound said that they would fight alone to gain points while Zhan Long's next goal was Forest of Stars!
After a face-front battle, our losses weren't huge. We had over 50 thousand and Furnace God Cavalry remained over ten thousand. Even if we faced Conquer the World we still had a chance.
