They could no longer keep up the fight. Several thousand Western Continent players had died, but at the end of the battle, the two Castellans were left with full HP. What more point was there in fighting?
“That ain’t fair, what the f*ck is that? We fought our *sses off for so damn long and they regen to full in a second? What do they take us for, idiots?”
“Motherf*ckers, that’s a bug! Imma reporting this to the official site!”
Even players from the same side could not heal Friendly NPCs. The Western Continent players were certain that victory was in their hands, but such an earth-shattering twist happened instead. Anyone would find this a little hard to swallow...
“Stop attacking, everybody, stop!” Windcloud Overlord yelled just in time.
The Western Continent players resurrected, one after the other. All of them waited outside the Castellan’s residence, instead of rushing forth.
There was no way to fight anymore. They already had several thousand casualties. If things went on like this, they still could not guarantee that they would be able to defeat the Castellan-level Elites, but they certainly would sustain heavy losses.
“Old Nine, why don’t we call it a day?” Windcloud Overlord could not help but send Brother Windcloud Nine a private message.
Brother Windcloud Nine was the one who instigated this incident. To be honest, Windcloud Overlord did not want to come here at first. The way he saw it, getting their revenge on Dark Wing was definitely just a matter of time. The time simply was not now.
Their levels were too low. If they attacked now, even a victory would be a harrowing one. The cost would be too high...
“No way! If we leave now, we’ll make things too easy for him!” said Brother Windcloud Nine, gritting his teeth.
In the interest of game balance, the Castellan-level NPCs could only stand guard outside the Castellan’s residence during wartime. Otherwise, the two Castellans would have long since gone around killing the Western Continent players who were trying to escape in all directions.
In truth, this setting also applied to other powerful NPCs. Take the special NPC, Kelly, for example. When the Western Continent players first saw her, her initial state was Neutral, and her name was yellow. If they did not attack Kelly first, not only would she not attack them back, she would even provide the Western Continent players with her equipment reinforcement services...
All the killable NPCs in Shattered Frost City had been annihilated. Most of the Little Drunk Cat Guild’s buildings had also been demolished. The guild had been well on its way to Level 7, but the situation had changed. If they did not put in eight hundred thousand or even a million Gold Coins into repairs, the guild would definitely drop back to Level 5.
Both sides had sustained considerable losses.
Windcloud Overlord asked, “Old Nine, what do you wanna do?”
Brother Windcloud Nine said coldly, “Occupy the city!”
“Occupation...” Windcloud Overlord was shaken.
The rules of the game stated that when an attacking side could not take down the Castellan’s residence but still wanted to conquer the city, they could choose to Occupy the City. It was another way they could achieve their goals.
Occupying the city was a very simple matter. They just had to make sure that the number of surviving opposing players in the major city did not increase over 5,000 for three days. That was all there was to it.
“Old Nine, wouldn’t that cost too much?”
“It will be worth it. Until I kill Dark Wing, no cost will be too much.” Brother Windcloud Nine snorted coldly.
Last time, Brother Windcloud Nine had killed Li Yi and even uploaded the video onto the official site. The result, however, was that most people still believed that Brother Windcloud Nine was inferior to Li Yi. They claimed that he could only kill Li Yi because the latter was not in his optimum condition. In other words, they accused him of winning unfairly.
This annoyed Brother Windcloud Nine for several days on end. Damaging the Little Drunk Cat Guild was only one of his motives behind this excursion to the Eastern Continent. His main aim was to kill Dark Wing one more time.
When they said that players had to occupy the city for three days, they were not referring to in-game time, but to real life time. When converted to in-game time, that was a whopping nine days!
It must be noted that the major city NPCs that had been killed would respawn, especially the NPC soldiers who respawned once every 24 hours. Just dealing with those would exact a heavy toll on them.
“Don’t worry, I’ll subsidize a portion of everyone’s losses.”
“Oh, it’s fine as long as you say that.” Windcloud Overlord heaved a sigh of relief.
Windcloud Overlord announced that they were occupying the city and he immediately gained the support from most players. They were just there to join the party. After all, why did they play the game, if not to have fun?
The Western Continent players busied themselves around Shattered Frost City, killing NPCs and destroying teleportation points.
Li Yi stood on the edge of the Abyssal Canyon Crevice and rubbed the Return City Stone several times, but it failed each time. He frowned.
The teleportation points inside Shattered Frost City had been destroyed, so the Return City Stone did not work for now.
“Old Dog, you sure are ruthless. But you’ll see, soon you’ll be compensating for all my losses.”
Li Yi laughed coldly and mounted his Holy Light Warhorse, running toward Black Rock Mountain...
...
“Archer God, where are you? Castellan of Shattered Frost City, Guild Master of the Little Drunk Cat Guild, what a long-*ss line of titles. Ooh, mommy, help me, I’m so scared!”
“Hahahaha, that spineless coward doesn’t dare to show his ugly face anymore.”
The Western Continent players yelled and hooted around Shattered Frost City, trying to lure Li Yi out of hiding.
Confused Fox slapped the table in frustration. “Damnit, those b*stards really p*ssed me off this time.”
“What can you achieve by being angry? When we gather enough forces, we’ll just scatter them at one go.”
The one who spoke was Pretty Good Mood, and Flower Underpants was standing next to him. These three brothers had been quite unfortunate. The enemy had spawn-camped them for several hours before Nirvana Inaction led some reinforcements to rescue them.
Right now, they were discussing strategies in the Virtual Meeting Room. They could clearly see everything that was happening inside Shattered Frost City.
“Great Commander, when do we launch our counterattack?” asked Flower Underpants.
Pretty Good Mood’s face reddened. “Cough, don’t call me Great Commander, I really can’t live up to that. This battle has truly taught me how little I know.
“My plan is to sit back and wait. When the NPC soldiers inside the city respawn, we’ll rush in and launch a pincer attack from within and without. That way we can finish them off in one go.”
“That’s a good plan!” Confused Fox expressed his support.
“Yeah, it’s decided. Let’s gather some forces first.” Flower Underpants nodded as well.
The three of them split up and gathered as many people as they could respectively.
Thanks to the Three Major Guild Alliance’s interference, the Iron Alliance could not recruit all that many fighters. Five hours later and they only managed to pull in slightly over 300,000 players. That was still less than a half of the Western Continent’s current forces.
Just as Pretty Good Mood and the others were preparing to counterattack, Li Yi sent them a message with only one word: Wait.
“Wait? What’s that mean? Wait for him to come back? Or wait for the Western Continent to retreat on their own?” Confused Fox was a little lost.
“He’s probably telling us to wait,” Flower Underpants said after a great deal of thought.
In the end, Pretty Good Mood was still the brightest of the bunch. He called Li Yi up immediately.
“Guild Master, what do you mean by ‘wait’?”
“Wait for me to come back, duh. I’m very busy now, I can’t get distracted. You guys just wait...”
As Li Yi was replying, they could hear the roar of beasts in the background. He was clearly in a precarious situation just then.
“Guild Master said that he wants us to wait for him to come back.”
“F*ck, couldn’t he have just said so? We cracked our brains over this for nothing!” Flower Underpants and Confused Fox flipped him off in unison
Shattered Frost City’s NPC soldiers respawned again, and the Western Continent players ganged up on them. After a grueling battle, they finally managed to kill all the NPC soldiers.
More people died there, and Windcloud Overlord grimaced at the sight, feeling the pain right in his heart. Many of the fighters were the Windcloud Clan’s Elites. This war had definitely taken a toll on the Windcloud Clan’s overall power...
However, there was one thing Windcloud Overlord could take comfort in. After Brother Windcloud Nine announced that they were occupying the city, many guilds who had initially opposed the Windcloud Clan temporarily put aside their differences and led their forces to Shattered Frost City to help.
The Reigning the World Guild, the Undefeatable Legends Guild, the Yamaguchi Group, Windfire...
More Western Continent players swarmed into Shattered Frost City, and their numbers continued to swell. From 600,000 players... to 700,000... to 1,000,000!
Within a mere day, more than 1,300,000 Western Continent were here to occupy the city!
They were like locusts, covering every inch of land and sky...
The official site had made it very clear that by successfully occupying the city, every player involved will receive generous rewards, including Honor Value and Great Gift Packs.
“Come on, let’s go to the Eastern Continent and get ourselves some Great Gift Packs.”
“You wanna die? If you do, be my guest and go ahead. I’m just Level 12, so I’ll stay right here.”
“What are you scared of? The Three Major Guild Alliance is secretly protecting us, they even left the way there totally open. We can go straight to Shattered Frost City, pal, what are you waiting for? 1,000 Honor Value points can even be converted into EXP, enough to make you level up more than 20 times.”
“For real?”
“Believe it or not.”
“Wait for me, I’ll be there in a jiff!”
The initial team who had headed to the Eastern Continent consisted fully of elite players. Soon, however, the team changed. Even players wearing white-colored cloth armor and wielding wooden swords ran toward the Eastern Continent. It was quite a sight to behold.
When he saw that he had so much support, Windcloud Overlord laughed as well. “Old Nine, with this battle, our Windcloud Clan’s sure to be the top of the Western Continent!”
“This is just the beginning.” Brother Windcloud Nine laughed coldly.
To Brother Windcloud Nine, this was just the starting line because Dark Wing had yet to appear. He would not be satisfied until he could kill Dark Wing one more time with his own hands.
“Have all the so-called powerhouses in your Eastern Continent kicked the bucket?”
Brother Windcloud Nine sent a message to the World Channel, challenging every Eastern Continent player at once.
“Showing off, my *ss! Old Windcloud Dog, get your head out of your *sshole!”
“F*ck, you think you’re all that just cuz you got a legendary mount...”
The Eastern Continent players swore back at him, but unfortunately, the fact that Brother Windcloud Nine had defeated Dark Wing before meant that their retorts were not as forceful as they could have been.
Although they were a little deflated in terms of confidence, Brother Windcloud Nine’s attitude was too much. Most Eastern Continent players could no longer bear it.
“Yo, isn’t that my doggy son? Since when have you been so high and mighty? Did yo mama... I mean, did yo daddy teach you to shout on the World Channel without permission? Don’t tell me you already forgot how you died last time?”
The World Channel flickered. The person who had sent that message was Wang’er.
“Leader Scum is here, long live Leader Scum! I remember now, last time Leader Scum was the one who took the Old Windcloud Dog down with one swing of his ax. We still got that footage to this day. Damn, that felt good! The Old Dog couldn’t even whine after that beating.”
“When Leader Scum comes, the Old Dog runs! Leader Scum, don’t hold back now. You’re the only one who can take down this Old Dog now.”
“Leader Scum’s the infamous dog-killer, did you even have to ask?”
In an instant, the Eastern Continent players reached a boiling point. Every single one of them started licking Scumbag Wang’s boots.
They did not have a choice. After all, Dark Wing lost last time. Although Scumbag Wang won in a very underhanded manner, all the Eastern Continent players wanted to do now was p*ss off Brother Windcloud Nine. What did it matter if he had been underhanded?
“You motherf*cking b*stard, your only trick is to sneak an attack on me when my HP was low! And you dare shout at me on the World Channel!?” The moment Brother Windcloud Nine saw Scumbag Wang, he lost his temper completely and flew off the handle.
“F*ck you, Old Windcloud Dog, do you have a death wish? How dare you insult our Leader Scum! Imma f*ck yo mama ten thousand times, I tell ya, ten thousand times...”
“Old Windcloud Dog, Imma f*ck yo mama ten thousand times, I tell ya, ten thousand times...”
“Old Windcloud Dog, Imma f*ck yo mama ten thousand times, I tell ya, ten thousand times...”
“Old Windcloud Dog, Imma f*ck yo mama ten thousand times, I tell ya, ten thousand times...”
The members of the Huashan Guild spammed the World Channel hard, and for a moment there, that was all anyone could see. It was just ‘ten thousand times’, over and over again...
When Brother Windcloud Nine saw these messages, he pressed his hand to his chest and panted heavily.
He had blown a fuse...
“Brother Nine, there’s a Warrior called Unending Unmatched outside the city, he says he wants to challenge you to a duel. He’s already killed hundreds of our men.”
Just then, a message appeared on the Western Continent Channel.
“Unending Unmatched!” Brother Windcloud Nine stood up abruptly and summoned Cerberus as he rushed out...
