Chapter 162 - Once Again, One Man Against an Army

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yi had arrived at the side of Sun Conqueror.

Both sides confirmed their gazes. Their wills were the same — they refused to back down.

There were probably quite a few disparity battles between the minority and the majority.

However, the gap in numbers was an insurmountable gap, and this matter was a fact.

How could they use only 200 players to defeat these 10,000 players?

“Leader, Carefree Dream, and the others seem to want to fight.”

“How many of them?”

“Two hundred.”

“Two hundred players? This Carefree Dream player really is daring. I suppose it all depends on whether he’s careful… or not.”

That person rode on his warhorse and looked at the battlefield with his soldiers in front.

After Sun Conqueror and Li Yi discussed their battle strategy, they led the Godslayer squad and charged towards the great army of Kesha City.

However, they stopped halfway.

Li Yi was very clear that with these 200 players, they would not be able to defeat the hundreds of thousands of players in front of them.

Li Yi had dealt with at least 300 players previously, but the players brought by that supposed leader later completely made up for this number.

Li Yi could roughly estimate that there were around 1,000 players around. The number of players that could participate in this battle was related to one’s own strength. If one did not meet the strength standards, they would not be able to enter the war.

Hence, players who had just barely entered level 20 and those who had not yet joined the faction could not participate in the battle.

This was also to ensure that both sides’ combat strength was as equal as possible. Admittedly, there were not many players that could participate in the battle, but having over 1,000 players was no small feat either.

Of course, the main point was not these 1,000 players, but the tens of thousands of soldiers behind them. Their average levels were around level 30.

In this event, killing players and soldiers gave points. Of course, soldiers had twice the points of players, but the difficulty was not as simple as them being twice as strong.

Points and battle experience were calculated after the event ended.

One player, two soldiers. The highest faction member would receive a Station Token as a reward.

Li Yi had been hiding this matter. Actually, there would be a total of two tokens this time.

Of course, these were all future matters to be dealt with. The problem now was to deal with the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of them.

Li Yi had exploited a bug in the game here in the past. If the players did not attack the soldiers, the soldiers would not attack. Moreover, the damage the soldiers dealt to the players would be halved.

Therefore, in order not to accidentally injure the advancing soldiers, the players had to be pulled out first.

The group of players were separated into two.

Once the players were separated, the soldiers would stop advancing until there were players with them.

These were all based on Li Yi’s experiences. In the later stages, many players would kill the players first and attack the soldiers collectively in order to get higher points.

Therefore, they first scattered the players and controlled the soldiers to advance. Then, they would gradually break into the defenses of the players.

It was easy to say, but it was not easy to do.

If they wanted the players to leave the team, they would have to bait the enemies, and Li Yi and the others were the bait.

After Winnie used Enchantment on Li Yi and the others, she followed Dream Seeker to the southwest corner. 

Snow Chaser had already buffed a few of them previously and was mentally preparing herself for the war. She and Clutch King headed to the southeast corner.

Seeing this, that person waved his finger.

The players each sent 100 players to chase the four players on both sides.

“Are there still about 800 of them left?”

The most serious problem with Li Yi’s strategy was that this time, it was different from when the headless dragon had been leaderless; they now had a backbone and eyes to direct their energy to.

Since they had a backbone, the difficulty had increased. They wanted to control the backbone so that they would not have to care about the players on both sides. It was so that Clutch King and the others could deal with the 100 players as soon as possible before supporting Dream Seeker’s side…

Someone had to get the main man’s attention.

This mission was no doubt taken up by Li Yi. He himself had to face the onslaught of those who remained.

As he took advantage of the information gap, he quickly reduced the opponent’s player force.

He had to stand here until his opponents made their way to him, then he would have to change his strategy.

Li Yi stabbed the magic weapon into the ground, looked at the more than 800 players, and shouted, “You shall not pass, intruders who come their way shall die!”

The man led his horse out of the army and shouted at Li Yi, “You’re really stubborn. You want to try again after you’ve failed? Do you think this time will be easier than before?”

“No!”

“Then why are you stopping us?”

“I’m not stopping you. I’m keeping you here.”

“Carefree Dream, you’re being much too arrogant. Do you really think you are invincible?”

“You don’t need to be invincible to stay.”

“Then, I’d like to see you try.”

After that person said that, he returned to the army and looked at Li Yi silently.

“Send a hundred players to test him out. I’m afraid that this’ll be a trap.”

“Yes, sir.”

Following which, 100 players lined up in an orderly manner. The Tankers had Warriors on the left and right, Mages at the back, Priests at the back, and even Warriors at the tail end.

The formation was perfect and built to be very cautious.

The steps were uniform and orderly.

“They really are a different bunch.”

Li Yi pulled out the magic weapon stuck in the ground and swung a huge sword slash at the hundred players in front of him.

“Horizontal Sword Slash!”

“-43,211! Critical Hit!”

“-15,224!”

“-15,133!”

…

Several Tankers fell down and were immediately replaced by others.

“Steady your shields!”

Immediately, all Tankers blocked themselves with their shields. Without any hesitation, Li Yi swung out another powerful sword slash.

“Horizontal Sword Slash!”

“-10,222! Parry!”

“-9,842! Parry!”

“-9,822! Parry!”

…

“Interesting.”

“Ready the ranged attacks!”

“Fireball!”

“Wind Blade!”

“Water Bomb!”

…

Dozens of magic attacks came at once.

“Lost Magic!”

Li Yi raised his shield to block.

“Miss!”

…

“Second round, ready! Steady! Fire!”

Suddenly, another group came, Li Yi could only retreat and dodge the onslaught.

“-1,022! Block!”

“-984! Block!”

“-982! Block!”

“-122! Reflect Damage!”

“-84! Counter Damage!”

“-82! Counter Damage!”

…

The opponent tried really hard to destroy him. After a series of maneuvers, Li Yi’s HP was reduced by 10%.

“There’s something here.”

The series of attacks ended.

The Tanker in the front row raised his shield and walked towards him step by step. The team behind him followed closely behind him.

The entire team did not have any openings for Li Yi to take advantage of. It was extremely difficult to find a breakthrough point.

“Huh, good thing that Dream Seeker gave me this.”

Li Yi held onto something that looked like an iron ball in his hand. Li Yi aimed at the team of over 100 players in front and threw it towards the center of their team.

“Be careful!”

The iron ball instantly exploded when it landed in the center of the team.

Numerous iron needles shot out from within.

“Ah!”

The mages inside were all shocked. At this time, another ball-like thing appeared in the sky.

Someone immediately hit it, and black powder suddenly exploded from it.

“W-what’s that?”

The black powder had a hint of smoke.

“Quickly use the Fireball spell!”

“Don’t! Don’t use it!”

Li Yi took advantage of their panic and thanked Dream Seeker quietly that it worked.

A player who was frightened cast the Fireball spell, and instantly the entire area exploded!
