Chapter 148 - So What If I Intentionally Fool Around?

“Lord of the City of Dawn!”

Arles let out a deafening growl.

He did not stop William, who punched and destroyed the gate. Instead, he pointed his sword at William and forced William to step back.

William retreated by ten meters, and checked his arms. The sword had made a clean cut on his wrist guards, and their durability had significantly dropped. His battle energy shield had also been immediately broken.

He looked at Arles and found him picking his eyebrows. Arles was a level 66 legendary pale Orc. His bloodline and species, on top of his hidden occupation of memory inheritance, caused his attributes to be as high as William’s.

Many players realized that the city gate had been opened. They were about to charge forth, but they immediately stopped.

“Gosh, yet another legendary Boss. As expected, we cannot trust the officials of Gods.”

“Run away, run away. It is easier to attack the city wall.” Some players quickly ran away. The repercussions of battling a legendary Boss were too great. If they were to fight at the city gate, they would die, even if they secretly tried to walk by.

“Bah, what a bunch of cowards. Watch me!” A ranger aimed his arrow at Arles.

Whiz.

The battle energy arrow missed Arles by ten meters…

The scene was very awkward.

The ranger also vanished.

He acted strong, then ran away. Should he have waited and be attacked?

William did not care about the players behind him. They were all afraid to die. Arles did not care either. So what if that weak arrow shot him?

“Where’s your brother?” William did not bring any weapons. He did not have any intentions of attacking. He only wanted to stall Arles and let the army of Winged race quickly settle the Orc troops.

“My brother…” Arles scratched his head, but realized that it was not the time to chat. He pointed his sword at William, full of rage. “Since you are here, let’s fight one on one. Stop your nonsense.”

“Nah, aiyo.”

William suddenly turned. A ray of black light flashed past and stabbed the city wall. The tail of the arrow wobbled. Thankfully, it did not pierce through his head.

“Bah, are you playing dirty, you dishonorable fellow? If my weapon had not been broken, I would not be standing here. I would have clashed with you a long time ago. But if you want a one on one fight, sure. Put down your weapon if you have the skills.” William did not have any handy weapons. If he used an ordinary small orange or gold weapon, it would be very difficult to match up against Arles who possessed a large orange weapon. He would have to change his weapon after every attack. It was too big a loss.

“Me, dishonorable?” Arles’ hands trembled slightly with anger. He no longer hesitated and charged at William like a rocket.

“Thump.”

When they clashed, they sent shock waves in all directions.

William had stopped Arles’ attack with a black battlesword held in his hands.

“What the f**k? You call this not having weapons?” Arles exerted some force and pushed William back.

The prince pouted. “I said that my weapon was broken. I didn’t say that I don’t have a second weapon. Are you dumb?”

Arles did not waste his words. This is bad, he thought. He had released the Trolls to get rid of the chosen ones on the city wall. It was very effective, but the immortality-like ability of the chosen ones was too much.

He could only wildly attack the lord of the City of Dawn, who did not have any handy weapons. He wanted to help the support troops catch their breath.

William did not have a choice either.

The Sword of Thunder had been broken, and his lightning attribute was no longer effective. His combat power had dropped by three levels.

Furthermore, the pale Orc had many health points, and to top that, his defense was not low either. William could only do his best to deal with him.

Their swords shone. They started to fight at the city gate. They pretended not to see the Trolls who were walking past.

William kicked Arles to the wall with all his strength. But when he approached Arles, he was pushed back by Arles’ attack. Metal battle energy was thrown at him. Even he did not want his face to be attacked.

His life was not a big problem, but his looks were very important.

Arles had metal-type battle energy. Not only was the battle energy hard, it was extremely sharp. In particular, metal-type battle energy had a ridiculous effect.

It could raise the defense of battle energy armor.

Although each type of battle energy had different effects, only metal-type and ground-type battle energy could increase defense.

If William encountered Bosses with these attributes, he wished it would not be in a battle. The enemy would be like a turtle shell. It was hard to attack then.

In particular, because of his weapon, thunder battle energy would be resisted by metal-type battle energy. He did not have the time to use his arrow skills. His low leveled spirit skills would be useless as well…

So.

Thus, he fooled around with a plan…

Some players saw this and seemed to realize a problem.

William’s black battlesword was very long and broad. He had to use two hands to hold it. It was not a very convenient weapon. In addition, the black aura that the battlesword released also allowed the players to identify another problem.

Professionals with active attributes had to use weapons with the corresponding attributes to display their full power.

If not, they would be like the lord of the City of Dawn, a legendary Boss. It was difficult, even for him, to display his full strength. It was the same for players.

Their performance at the war was not outstanding. However, the army of Winged people were not bad.

Xiyan wore a suit of silver armor. Bright sword energy constantly burst forth from her, and every time she waved her sword, the enemies in her way were killed.

She led her subordinates, and they killed their way through the Orc army like a sharp dagger. A silver ray of light appeared among the army of black.

An epic Orc held two hammers and growled fiercely.

But it was forced to step back by the sword energy. And before it could even react, its neck was chopped. It was a quick death.

Chu Liuqiu leisurely witnessed this scene. It seemed interesting to him and he thought about it. If cutting off the head or chopping the neck could cause a fatal blow to a Boss, could players do the same?

“But… Bosses have more attributes. The attack has to be accurate. The skills have to be strong as well. If not, it will be very difficult to kill them.”

An Orc saw that Chu Liuqiu was not moving and charged at him. But when he reached the target, Chu Liuqiu turned and jumped at the orc. He stabbed the Orc in the eyes.

“No. Low level Orcs are fine, but Orcs with high bloodline potential move too quickly. It seems very difficult for me to carry out such a precise attack.” Chu Liuqiu continued to talk to himself. When his comrades heard this, they did not care much about it. Their leader had arrived at yet another realization…

The tragic assault did not continue for long.

The other legion commander roared for them to retreat.

Naturally, Arles heard this.

He knew that they could no longer defend this place. He slashed his sword at William several times and forced William to step back. “Retreat!” He shouted, before turning and running off.

The Orc army gave up on the city and ran away, crestfallen. The Orcs who ran slowly were not killed. They were captured as prisoners to work in the mines.

The results of the battle did not amount to much.

William and Xiyan choose not to pursue and attack the retreating army.

They were very near to the Heavy Spear tribes. They could be easily ambushed instead.

Furthermore, killing the enemy was not the most important. The problem now was how they should guard the orichalcum mines.

Xiyan walked over, covered in Orc blood and she saw that William had not even caused a strand of hair to drop. She was too lazy to continue looking at him. She walked through the gate in large strides.

“Tsk tsk, she is disgusted with the prince…”

“No. Sister Xiyan is very arrogant.”

“The information should not have reached her. After all, the news of the Prince eliminating an execution team of 20 has not spread too far. If it had, this Winged girl would have been bootlicking the city lord.”

William walked over. He typically did not make a special effort towards female animals. Only males with no skills would do so.

True men should act like men!

Thus, he softly said, “Since we have seized the orichalcum mines, what should we do next?”

“Guard this place. I believe that the Orcs will still return.” Xiyan looked around and saw body parts strewn all over the ground. She furrowed her eyebrows. “Bury all these corpses. Strengthen the city wall. Tell the tribe leader to build another city gate. Ask them to send it over once the mages have enchanted it.”

“Roger.”

The Winged soldiers started to clean up the corpses. When the players saw this, they wondered whether they would be given a mission, but nothing happened…

William narrowed his eyes. “We can expand the map once again. Getting rid of Arles was the wrong decision. Altaic will definitely arrive at the battlefield enraged. I am not interested in actually starting a war.”

“The place where soldiers have to fight for is the best place for them to train. I do not have to worry that the players do not have any missions to do.”

“As for the opening of the orichalcum mines, do I care about them?” The prince glanced at the arrogant girl, Xiyan. He laughed. His appetite was not that small.
