Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation As Ye Ci controlled Ol 'Six to bombard the Golden Era players with Dragon's Breath, Breeze was informed of the situation.
He was rather surprised by this.
"What did you say? Reed? A Dragon appeared in the sky above the Lesser Demon Sanctuary? " When Breeze heard the news, he wondered if he had misheard, or if Sweeping Reed hadn't explained it clearly enough, causing him to mishear.
"Yes, a Dragon appeared in the sky, and …" Sweeping Reed paused and took a deep breath, "Leader, do you remember the major events in Fate that we saw in the forums before we entered the game?"
"You're talking about …" Breeze paused for a moment before realizing what Sweeping Reed was talking about, "You're talking about the post about the Red Dragon flying over the Swamp of Sorrows in the Eastern Continent?"
"Yup, that's the post." Sweeping Reed jumped down from the rock he was standing on and ducked down to hide. He saw the light blue Dragon flying towards him. He was worried that the Dragon was going to spit Dragon's Breath at him. If it was a Dragon Breath, he hoped that it would be fire instead of poison. After all, fire could be avoided, but poison would spread everywhere. Although he had reached level 37, the level of this Dragon was clearly much higher than him. If he was hit by its Dragon Breath, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to endure more than a few hits.
Perhaps it was the prayers of Marsh Reeds, or perhaps she was tired of using her Dragon's Breath, Ye Ci lowered Ol 'Six's altitude and clicked on Ol' Six's Hurricane skill.
Golden Era's players were only lvl 20, but they were no fools. After being baptized by the Dragon's Breath a few times, they immediately fled when they saw the Dragon flying towards them. But how could a player's speed be faster than a Dragon's?
According to the speed limit in Fate, a player's normal walking speed was 2.0, running speed was 5.0, and a mount with 60% movement speed was 8.0, and so on. The slowest flying mount had a speed of 12.0, and the fastest could reach 24.0. Ye Ci's Ol 'Six was only a Tier 7 creature, and it was not yet fully matured. Even so, it could still reach 16.0, which was much faster than a player's running speed.
No matter how hard the players tried to hide, Ye Ci could easily catch up to them with Ol 'Six on her back. She aimed at the direction the players were heading in and stopped Ol 'Six in front of them. Then, she unleashed her Hurricane skill.
Ol 'Six unfurled its wings and flapped them rapidly. Accompanied by a dragon's roar, a cloud of dust rose from the ground. Two gigantic streams of air began to revolve around Ol' Six. The two streams of air formed a straight line and moved in two opposite directions at a speed of 6.0. All the players in the path of the air streams were swept up and thrown about 30 meters above the ground before crashing to the ground.
Very few players were able to survive a fall from such a height. Falling to their deaths was much more painful than being stuck to the ground and burned to death. Ye Ci could hear the cries of agony from the players on the ground.
Ye Ci did not want to expose herself for the time being, so she immediately pulled Ol 'Six higher into the air and flew towards a place where Golden Era's players were more concentrated.
"I remember the post was very tragic. Wherever the Red Dragon flew, there were corpses everywhere. There were no survivors at all." Breeze frowned, "You guys have a Dragon as well. Don't tell me it's the same …"
Before Breeze could finish his sentence, he heard a strong gust of wind coming from the microphone in Marsh of Reeds. It was as if the wind was right next to Breeze's ear. He could imagine how strong and fierce the wind was just by listening to the gust of wind.
Breeze frowned as a bad premonition crept into his heart. He immediately yelled, "Lu Wei, Lu Wei, Lu Wei! What's going on over there?! "
Death Blossom stood up and looked at Breeze worriedly. Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed as she realized that something was amiss.
For some reason, Breeze did not receive a response from Marsh of Reeds. He immediately stood up with a pale face. He was 100% sure that something had happened over at Marsh of Reeds. However, as the target of this operation was too large, it wasn't suitable for high-level players to take part in it. Hence, Sweeping Reed was the only person in charge of the operation. Now that Sweeping Reed was unable to respond to him for the time being, it was as if he had been cut off from the other side of the operation. How could Breeze not be worried about this?
"What's wrong?" Death Blossom was also worried when she saw Breeze's expression.
"Something happened over at Marsh of Reeds."
"What happened?" Death Blossom's frown deepened when she heard that something had happened over at Marsh of Reeds.
"He just told me that a Dragon appeared in the sky above the Lesser Demon Sanctuary. Before he could explain himself, the communication was cut off." Breeze replied after a long pause.
"A Dragon?" Death Blossom was an executive of Golden Era and Breeze's wife. They had known each other for many years. She immediately knew what Breeze was thinking when he mentioned the Dragon. She immediately recalled a post about a Red Dragon that flew over the Swamp of Sorrows in the Eastern Continent. There were many black and white photos attached to the post. It was clear that the player who took the photos was one of the "dead" players.
If a dragon were to fly over the Lesser Demon Sanctuary right now, not even a blade of grass would be able to survive. Death Blossom felt a headache coming on. They had mobilized over 800,000 players, and most of them were only lvl20 newbies. Even high-level players might not be able to withstand a single attack from a Dragon, let alone these lvl20 newbies. They would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
"I'm afraid that we'll suffer heavy casualties this time." Breeze sat down again and massaged his temples with his fingers. It was obvious that he was infuriated by this inference.
Death Blossom was startled, but she quickly consoled him, "Don't worry. We were prepared to suffer heavy casualties when we made the decision. Think about it from another perspective, Breeze. If the Dragon is able to kill so many of our men, the members of Upwards Ho! will not be able to escape unscathed. Especially the defense of the city. It's definitely going to be destroyed. You see, we used 800,000 smurfs in exchange for the deaths of so many elite players. In addition, tens of millions of city defenses were breached. Most importantly, we regained the right to compete for the item behind the city defenses. Although we suffered a loss, it wasn't too much of a loss, right? "
Breeze opened his eyes and turned to look at Death Blossom. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw the gentle smile on her face. He reached out to hold Death Blossom's soft hand and smiled, "I hope … I hope that things will turn out this way."
Despite his answer, the uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate. Instead, it only grew stronger and stronger.
Is it really like what Death Blossom said? Is that Dragon a Wild Dragon? Or is it the same as the Crimson Dragon that flew across the Swamp of Sorrows? Is that really the case? Why do I feel so uneasy?
After a long moment of silence, Breeze suddenly asked Death Blossom, "Death Blossom, how many Pet Life Cores were sold at the auction?"
Death Blossom didn't know what Breeze was talking about, but she could only go along with what he was saying, "It seems like five of them were bought at once …" She suddenly understood what Breeze was trying to say, and her eyes widened in shock, "Breeze, do you mean …"
"It's just a guess. I'm not sure." Breeze's expression turned serious. "When you saw Gongzi You last time, you said that she was hiding a moving Pet with her robe, right?"
"Yes …" Death Blossom's face turned even paler. She knew Breeze very well, and she knew what he was talking about.
"What kind of Pet do you think Gongzi You would hide from you?" Breeze's expression turned even darker.
Death Blossom could not answer. Her lips trembled, and she did not know what to say. Her heart was filled with uneasiness, and it was a feeling that made her panic. This was human instinct. Of course, it was natural for people to panic when they encountered something that they could not control. Even Death Blossom could not escape from this.
"Gongzi You …" Breeze raised his head and let out a long sigh, "She's someone who lives Up Everyday …"
"Breeze! Don't think of everything in such a bad way. Maybe … Maybe things aren't as bad as you think. " Death Blossom gulped. Even though she was not convinced by her own words, she still wanted to convince Breeze.
Breeze did not say anything. Death Blossom's expression showed that she had already realized that the Dragon's appearance was not natural.
At this moment, someone from Sweeping Reed finally replied, "Boss, boss, are you still there?" His voice was hoarse, as if he had just gone through a brutal battle. He sounded so helpless and tired.
"I'm here. Reed, why did you suddenly break? " Although Breeze had already predicted the worst-case scenario in his heart, he still hoped that things wouldn't develop in the direction he imagined.
"F * ck! That damned Dragon! Why did it stop spitting Dragon Breath and change to flapping its wings? Luckily I was hiding under a rock and hugging it tightly. Otherwise, I would have been blown into the sky by the wind! " Sweeping Reed coughed as he spoke. It seemed that the wind was very strong, and he had a mouthful of sand.
Breeze did not reply immediately. After a while, he asked, "Reed, is there anyone on the Dragon's back?"
Sweeping Reed was puzzled by Breeze's question, but he still looked at the Dragon that had already flown to the other side. "I can't see clearly. The visibility in the map isn't high, and the Dragon is flying a little too high. It's basically flying through the clouds. I can't see what's on its back."
"Is that so?" Breeze lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is the Dragon only attacking our players?"
"Wait, I'm still hiding behind the rock. I have to climb up to see what's going on. The Dragon only appeared less than three minutes ago, so I can't be sure. " Sweeping Reed said as he climbed up the rock and looked into the distance, "The Dragon is flying towards the front of the city. That's where Golden Era and Up Everyday are fighting the most." Sweeping Reed said with a gloating smile, "Hehe, I think Up Everyday is going to suffer heavy losses this time. Their guild is so small, and they don't have any financial groups to invest in them. I'm afraid that the Dragon is going to destroy this city. "
Breeze became excited when he heard Sweeping Reed's words, "What? Does that Dragon attack indiscriminately? Does it also attack Up Everyday's players? "
"Of course!" Sweeping Reed stood on the rock and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the Dragon. It opened its mouth and spat out a huge Dragon Breath in the direction of the battle between the two armies.
"Am I thinking too much? It's not Gongzi You? It's not a pet? " Breeze was so excited that he was caught off guard. He suddenly stood up, "The heavens didn't disappoint me!"
Sweeping Reed's expression darkened even before Breeze's excitement died down. What's going on? Why did he only see a gap in Golden Era's players when the Dragon Breath was released? Why was it that the skills of Up Everyday's players were still wreaking havoc on the battlefield?
Could it be …
Sweeping Reed's heart suddenly tightened. He saw the Dragon spit out another mouthful of Dragon Breath in the direction of Golden Era's players. In the blink of an eye, thousands of low-level players were turned into corpses in the midst of the fierce battle. They then turned into countless rays of white light and disappeared …
