Chapter 677- Woodpecker Forest

“Scoff!”


In the wind, a figure formed and turned into the shape of Valen. He held the Pioneer Halberd and was dressed in armor. He looked down on us mockingly, “I didn’t expect you all to defeat the Cannibal Army. Seems like Dragon Region and the humans are strong enough for me to be serious! Come, Frost King and I are waiting for all of you at Snow Eagle Castle, if you want to die then bring it on!”


His body slowly disappeared into the wind.


……


“...”


Silver Dragon Queen Sylvia frowned in front of the Dragon Region Army, “Lady why didn’t you attack and kill Valen right away? With your strength, together with Lan Che and I, we would be able to kill him on the spot.”


“You…”


Yun Yue looked into the distance and smiled, “Did you really think that is Valen’s real body? It is just a spiritual body, why would he be so bold?”


“This…”


Sylvia was stunned and his face flushed red, “I actually didn’t see through that…”


“Valen’s strength exceeds Eternal Realm. With the strength of the Pioneer Halberd, he should be quasi God Realm. It is normal that you can’t see through his spiritual body.”


Yun Yue smiled, “But that is fine, our goal is to take down Snow Eagle Castle. As for killing Valen, we would have a chance sooner or later.”


“Yes, I understand!”


At that moment, Zhenyang Duke raised his palm and said solemnly, “Heavy cannons prepare to fire, turn all the defending troops into dust!”


“Yes Duke!”


Not long later, cannons fired. Cannon flames spurted out in the forest behind us. The entire ground shook. The cannons exploded among the Pioneer Cavalries and Pioneer Ghouls, blowing them up into pieces. This lasted for five minutes. After which, one could see piles of corpses and it was a tragic sight.


Further ahead, Green Goat Swamp, Woodpecker Forest etc strongholds appeared in front of our eyes.


……


“Gulp!”


Yanshi Bugong looked at the Green Goat Swamp with envy, like he was seeing an irresistible beauty, “This time, who knows how we are going to get that.”


At that moment, someone created a group and added all the T1 guild leaders to it. I was among them. The group owner was Legend’s guild leader Changshen Jue. As the only T0 recognised guild leader in the server, his reputation was the highest and he did have the ability.


After all the guild leaders entered, he said solemnly, “Actually, everyone came here to develop, to get riches and equipment, there is no need to go all out. There are two S Grade and 5 A Grade ones ahead, let’s split it up and not fight.”


“Sure!”


Fengxian smiled, “How are we going to do that? Everyone wants the two S Grade ones. Guild Leader who do you think should get those?”


Feng Canghai said solemnly, “To reduce losses, let’s do it based on strength rankings, there is no need to hurt one another.”


“Right.”


Changshen Jue said, “Based on the current guild strength rankings, Legend is temporarily first based on our number advantage. Next is With You that took down Flying Bird Forest. Then are Elements, Limitless, Winds of Battle, House of Prestige and Prague. So, it is quite obvious. Legend will take one, With You has three strongholds already and should let someone else have one. The remaining A Grade will be split to each guild. What do you all think?”


“I have one problem.”


Lin Xi said, “Why do we have to give it up? We fight based on our ability so why do we have to give in?”


“Lin Xi.”


Mars River said, “If With You wants another, that means you are soloing all the resources and not giving other guilds a chance. That is not appropriate.”


“There is nothing not appropriate about that?”


I smiled, “If it was elements, do you think you will give up on the chance to get an S Grade stronghold?”


Fengxian and Xue Jing both laughed. Even Dawn couldn’t help but burst out but after which he kept quiet to maintain his image.


“Everyone let me say something.”


Changshen Jue continued, “Why not we let go of one A Grade stronghold and let With You get two A Grade ones, give the S Grade one to Elements?”


“Forget it, there is no need to discuss.” I said.


“Ah?” Lin Xi and Mingxuan looked at me in shock.


“July Wildfire?”


Changshen Jue was stunned and he was worried that I would flip the table, “You can express your views, let’s discuss slowly.”


“Nothing.”


I waved and smiled, “My view is… With You can not touch the two strongholds, we just want the Woodpecker Forest. You can have the rest, is that okay?”


“Okay!”


Feng Canghai was delighted, it was obvious that he didn’t expect me to agree so swiftly.


“Okay.”


I signaled to Lin Xi not to talk, “Then With You will back out of the group. We will attack Woodpecker Forest. I hope that the other guilds don’t interfere or we will take revenge!”


“Don’t worry!”


“Okay.”


In the next moment, Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan and I backed out. Lin Xi looked at me and was confused, “Why do you give up on the two S Grade ones?”


“It takes too much time.”


I smiled, “Let’s take down Woodpecker Forest quickly and then be the first to charge toward the SS Grade Snow Eagle Castle. Isn’t that better?”


“Sure.”


Shen Mingxuan smiled, “I knew this fellow definitely had a cunning plan.”


“En, indeed.”


Lin Xi smiled, “Time is of the essence, let’s attack right away?”


“En!”


I walked to the front and said solemnly in the guild channel, “Brothers, target the A Grade Woodpecker Forest. Don’t ask me why, take it down quickly!”


“Okay!”


In the guild, although many people doubted why we didn’t try for the S Grade strongholds but Light Lantern, Cal and Haotian quickly covered them up. A guild couldn’t have too many people making decisions. In the next moment, Sika Deer Cavalries led the way and headed right to the Woodpecker Forest. Lin Xi and I led the way.


After stepping into the forest, thuds could be heard all around. Many Woodpeckers were pecking holes into the trees.


“This sound…”


Lin Xi smiled, “Reminds me of a book in school. They are the most hardworking birds, helping the sick trees. Nature is so magical.”


I looked at her.


“What do you have to say?” she pouted.


I laughed and couldn’t keep it in, “Not all of them are good birds, they peck wood as a survival need, they just need food. Some of these eat out the entire tree so how is that even helpful? Moreover, let me tell you something unbelievable. Sometimes they will peck the heads of baby birds, eating their brains…”


“Ah stop it!”


Lin Xi frowned and was still a little angry. She punched me, “Don’t say such things to me next time!”


“Oh!”


I said, “I am giving you some science knowledge…”


“Oi oi!”


Light Lantern pointed his blade forwards, “Two guild leaders, monsters have spawned. Should we continue talking or should we start attacking? Time waits for no one! Legends and Elements have started to attack the S Grade strongholds!”


“Start, go all out to deal damage!”


“En!”


Thus, Lin Xi and I split up and led two groups into the forest. We used Apprehension, Wooden Dummy, Ancient Totem etc. Along with Shen Mingxuan, Gu Ruyi and Light Frost supporting, we were unstoppable. The A Grade stronghold defenders weren’t our match at all. In just five minutes, we were in front of the boss.


“Lin Xi and I focus on attacking the boss, the others clear up. Clear all the monsters in Woodpecker Forest!”


“Yes!”


……


This was a Legacy Grade Boss holding a crescent blade, it wasn’t much of a treat. We pushed in and in just three minutes we dealt with the Boss. After a few more minutes, the entire Woodpecker Forest was taken down by us.


At that moment, our points reached 360. Tonight we would receive 3.6 million points, maybe… If we did something epic and could collect Snow Eagle Castle, then we would reach 6.6 million points. Dreams were perfect but who knew what reality would be like?


“Shua!”


I held my daggers and charged toward the forest ahead. My vision became clear and snow flew in the sky. In the snow, a white castle stood. It was more majestic than Silver Scale Fortress. Above, many white eagles circled and chirped.


SS Grade stronghold, the legendary Snow Eagle Castle!
