Chapter 824: Tiger King

Translator: alyschu

"Well fucking done, Warsky!"

I praised the guild leader out loud while stabbing the female assassin closest to me to death in two strikes. While the Phantom Wolf King was distracting everyone with Purgatory Storm it had unleashed in the middle of a crowd, I moved far, far away to the back and fired deadly Burning Blade Slash at the stunned enemies. I even tossed an Icy Cyclone Domain to minimize their chances of somehow surviving this predicament.

Not far away, I saw Lin Yixin making a comeback and firing Ice Flame Slash + Ice Storm combo at the stunned Heroic Bannermen. Riding right next to her and launching Purgatory of Ice and Magma was my beautiful guild leader, He Yi. It was a completely one-sided slaughter.

"Arghhhhhh..."

The 14 Heroic Bannermen who had been surprised by Ghost Banner were killed just like that. Although their priests tried to keep them alive, they weren’t able to outheal our combined damage, not to mention that He Yi, Lin Yixin and my attacks had hit the 14 Heroic Bannermen at nearly the same time.

"Dammit!"

If Vienna’s Sorrow had the strength to crush his own teeth, he would. He hadn’t expected to suffer such a huge loss right at the beginning of the engagement, and it was all because he underestimated the guild leader of Warsky Alliance too much. To his knowledge, the second strongest guild of China was powerful, but their martial power was really propped up by the likes of Lin Bing Dou Zhe, Farewell Song and October Rain. Their guild leader was supposed to be a useless trash in this regard. However, not only had Warsky beaten all his generals and become a Divine General first, the Divine General Skill he got was powerful beyond imagination!

How painful was it to lose 14 Heroic Bannermen in one go? It would be like losing me, Lin Yixin, Li Chengfeng, October Rain, Stranger of Three Lifetimes and another 9 CGL Hall of Famers to an enemy ambush. There was probably no player in the entire China who wouldn’t be hurt by such a devastating loss.

......

Swhoosh!

A figure dashed toward Vienna’s Sorrow, and it was Candlelight Shadow using Charge. The former was able to dodge the skill, but Candlelight Shadow doggedly stayed on his tail. After cutting down half a ring of enemies with his sword, he raised his palm and detonated the enemy archer party with a cast of Outer Flame. Countless people were burned into crisp in just a second.

Facial muscles twitching, Vienna’s Sorrow shouted, "Mystic Alliance, send them packing with your spells! The rest of you, follow me into the inner area and take out the boss!"

Mystic Alliance’s mages obeyed the order and advanced toward us. I counted at least thousands of them. If there was one thing I could praise in the Northern Alliance, it would be their willingness to make sacrifices. No one was exempt from the traps that blocked the way into the Soul Suppressing Tower on the first floor, and the price of failure was death. Assuming that the ratio of mages who made it through the traps was 10:1, they must have lost tens of thousands mages on the first floor.

The enemy mages chanted their spells, and soon, a sea of destruction blocked our advance. They shredded the Viper Dragoons into pieces with Galaxy Storms and Dragon’s Roars, and some of them even possessed rare, powerful spells such as Cold Wind Blade, Scorching Rock, Earth Spring Blast and more. No one was able to make it through for a time.

Standing just outside the range of the magical bombardment, Candlelight Shadow raised an arm and ordered, "Eagle-eyed! Kill them all!"

Candle Dragon’s top archer, Autumn Carrot, immediately activated his stratagem. His party’s attack range and physical attack power were increased drastically!

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!

Spiraling Arrow Blades, Volleys and more soared across the air before landing atop the enemy mages. The counterattack distorted many a Magic Shield and killed many who couldn’t weather the assault.

Beiming Xue and Coldmoon Rose also activated Range and shot at the enemies. There weren’t many Chinese players who had and chose to use Range as their stratagem of choice, but there were enough of them to give the northern mages one hell of a time. After all, there couldn’t be more than 50000 players on the ninth floor of the Soul Suppressing Tower. It was impossible to have a protracted battle.

......

"Are we just going to wait here and do nothing?" Lin Yixin asked somewhat helplessly as she watched the aerial exchange from a distance.

"Yeah. But don’t worry, the boss still has 55% HP!" I said with a nod.

"And how would you know that?" She looked at me and asked.

I grinned. "I have good eyesight..."

"Hmph hmph!"

After the short conversation, I walked to the dead Dark Guardians and absorbed their undead soul sparks. I didn’t want to waste them knowing that high-level dread-rank mobs were hard to come by outside the Soul Suppressing Tower. Right now I was just a small, insignificant Asura, and the sooner I evolved into an Asura King or the rank beyond that, an Asura God, the better.

......

Our tactic was proven to be sound. It wasn’t long before the northern mages started faltering under our superior firepower and range.

Chiang!

I pulled out the Cyan Netherworld Sword and declared, "It’s time. Dragonlight Cavalry, prepare to charge!"

I took off first and charged straight toward the enemy in a straight line. I was unafraid because I had buffed my HP by 40% using the Blood Knight Card, and Pure Love had applied a 50% Physique buff on me, pushing my total HP to almost 300k. Moreover, the Heaven-burning Armor gave me a ridiculous amount of Magic Resist. There was nothing these dying mages could do to me.

The Armored Ice Qilin Horse neighed loudly as we charged through the magical fire. As expected, I only lost 30k HP or so despite having tanked a ton of Galaxy Storms and Dragon’s Roars. It was well within my limits of endurance!

Boom!

I fired Burning Blade Slash at a crowd of enemies and charged toward a different target. Once I had lodged myself in the heart of the party, I used War Crush and killed all the mages around me. They were unfortunate to have me as their opponent.

Behind me, a beautiful figure charged through the magical fire and unleashed Ice Flame Slash and Ice Storm immediately, the wristguards around her arms ringing melodiously to every movement. It was none other than the Fruit Knife Goddess herself wringing tears from the enemies by making them realize that they were no match for her at all!

Things were only going to get worse for them as the Purple Dragon Cavalry and the Dragonlight Cavalry emerged behind us. Not even the strongest mages could endure an entire troop of cavalry running up to their faces and cutting off their heads!

......

In less than five minutes, thousands of high-level mages were driven into a corner and slaughtered. From my position, I could see the Northern Alliance engaging the boss in a costly battle. The Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry was running up to the boss one by one only to die in a couple of hits.

The boss was a black-and-white striped king of tigers. It was a Level 195 Immortal Rank boss with stats so high that they were only marked with question marks. Its name was "Yin Yang Tiger”.

Swhoosh!

The tiger king swung its paw with thunderous energy and tore open a rift. It was the Heaven-opening Tiger’s ability!

A dozen or so Bloodthirsty Cavalrymen were instantly sucked into the rift and transported to god-knows-where. Growing anxious, Vienna shouted, "Tanks, get your ass in there now! Mages and archers, keep the damage coming! The boss is going to die very soon!"

I watched the battle for a moment before realizing something. "Eve, Yiyi, did you guys notice that the boss's eyes have been closed throughout the battle?"

"Yeah, I noticed..." He Yi nodded in agreement.

Lin Yixin also said, "Mn, I think so."

Li Chengfeng asked, "What will happen if the boss opens its eyes?"

Chaos Moon replied, "Something bad, probably..."

"Is that so?" Gui Guzi bared his teeth and grinned.

......

As if to prove that our speculation was correct, the Yin Yang Tiger abruptly opened its left eye—a golden eye—and fired a golden beam at its enemies!

Swhoosh!

Ridiculous damage numbers popped above the players’ heads wherever the golden beam traveled—

131292!

125636!

172662!

......

The players of the Northern Alliance remained calm, so this clearly wasn’t the first time they witnessed the attack. The same couldn’t be said for the rest of us, however. Moreover, the attack dealt an insane amount of damage, but not a single player had died during the attack. Everyone who was hit was left with 1 HP!

Next, the tiger king let out a roar and unleashed a flame breath at its attackers. It was perfect. The low-health players, including the Bloodthirsty Cavalry, were killed before they could heal themselves!

The boss closed its eyes again after the attack, however. At this point, I understood what the golden eye represented. It was the Yang Eye, and it was absolutely deadly!

Less than half a minute later, a tragedy befell the Northern Alliance again. This time, the Yin Yang Tiger opened the other eye, the Yin Eye!

Swhoosh!

Our surroundings turned pitch black in an instant. It was as if our eyes were blindfolded by something, and we couldn’t see more than two steps away!

"Fuck, what the... what the fuck is this skill?"

Gui Guzi swung his spear wildly while yelling, "What do we do if someone ambushes during this time?"

"Ahhhhhhh..." High Fighting Spirits cried out suddenly. "Stop poking me, Gui! Fuck, everyone here is a friendly STOP MOVING ALREADY! I’ll break your fucking neck if you swing that spear one more time..."

......

"I see. So this was how they were fighting against the boss. No wonder Vienna couldn’t spare the men to attack us..." Li Chengfeng commented with a sigh.

Not far away from us, Candlelight Shadow ordered the second the effects of the Yin Eye had passed, "Kill! The time to snatch the boss is now! Show these northern wolves the strength of Candle Dragon, people!"

Blue Sky Scar, Tempest Shadow, Transient Smoke and Clouds and the rest of his troops charged immediately. The Northern Alliance was really on its last legs at this point, so even Candle Dragon alone could take them out.

Warsky also raised his sword and growled, "Warsky Alliance, attack! The boss is ours!"

At the same time, Luo River God of the Capital, Ling Xueshang, Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties, Indigo Collar, Dominating Heaven Blade, Pillar of the Nation and countless other guild leaders all ordered their men to attack. Almost every major guild in China had set their sights on the "final supper", and no one wanted to give it up to another guild. The Northern Alliance was already out of the fight because they had lost too much and spent too long to kill the boss.

......

"Boss Broken Halberd, are we going yet? The boss only has 40% HP left!" Gui Guzi looked at me for directions.

Li Chengfeng also raised his Augustus’ Spear and said, "Yeah, let’s go already. It’d be sad to miss a festival like this..."

But I shook my head and said, "Hell no, we ain’t provoking the boss! We’ll move to the flanks and kill Vienna’s Sorrow. He has the Heaven-slaughtering Tiger’s essence in his bag, and we’re taking it from him!"

He Yi giggled. "See? Lu Chen’s the only one who managed to keep a cool head in this situation..."
