Chapter 979:

Apart from Robb, everyone was disheartened!

In their eyes, despite years of preparation and a massive army, all they faced was a shameful defeat.

But Robb wasnt bothered in the slightest. Who ever heard of fighting a BOSS without a few group wipes?

Only through continuous trial and error can everyone gain experience in battling the BOSS. Experience is invaluable, making the next fight easier. He shouted to the downtrodden crowd, Stop sulking! So we lost once, big deal? With my resurrection spells, we can afford to lose. I was prepared to lose a few rounds anyway. Thats why I instructed the Thors Roar and the Tank teams to save ammo. Do you understand now?

The crowd suddenly grasped why Godfather had been conserving ammunition.

It seemed Godfather knew from the beginning that defeating the dragon wouldnt happen in one try. Therefore, all expendable magical items had to be used sparingly so they wouldnt run out after resurrecting the dead. Their spirits lifted!

The first order of business was to resurrect the dead. Those whose bodies were moved by the logistics troops were easily handled. With Robbs mass resurrection spell, they were all revived instantly. Each had died at different timessome smashed by the dragons fiery meteor, some swept away by its wings, some trapped in its fiery circle, some hit by its thorny armor.

Because they each had different times of death, they were completely in the dark about the subsequent battle events. As soon as they were resurrected, people immediately briefed them on what had transpired.

Next, Robb had to resurrect several hundred people who were burned to death by the dragons breath, whose bodies were less than 100 yards from the dragon. They would immediately be in danger of being attacked upon resurrection.

Robb turned to the knights of the Kingdom of Norma and said, You knights live in the Northern Plains; you should be skilled in using lassos, right?

Skilled! replied the knights, We can lasso a horses neck with unerring accuracy.

Good, Robb smiled. Prepare yourselves. For every person I resurrect, youll lasso one back.

The knights hurriedly prepared their lassos, although they looked a bit awkward

Robb cast a resurrection spell on an elven archer. The archer instantly sat up: Ah, Im dead! Is the Dragon War over? Did we win?

Just as he asked this, he found the dragon still before him, staring at him with its massive eyes. He looked around; corpses were everywhere. His allies were safely standing beyond the 200-yard range of the dragon, leaving only himfreshly resurrected and unfortunatewithin the dragons attack range.

As the warriors debated, Robb beckoned to the knights coming from the east. Ahem ahem Gentlemen, come here. I need to explain to you what clockwise and counter-clockwise mean.

The knights were rather embarrassed; their earlier defeat was due to this confusion.

Please, enlighten us about what is clockwise and counter-clockwise, they said, all ears.

Robb had someone bring over a pocket watch and patiently explained not only the concepts of clockwise and counter-clockwise, but also the concept of telling time. He made sure to go into detail so that everyone could understand fully. After all, they had plenty of time; there was no need to rush.

After a full hour of reorganization, clarifying key points, taking breaks, replenishing food and wateroh, and some people even took the opportunity to visit the restroomthe team was ready once more.

Robb stood up again: Prepare to engage!

Everyones spirits were lifted. From the inner circle to the outer ring, from the mountains peak to its slopes, everyones fighting spirit reignited.

Lets do this again!

We can win this time.

We will not fall to the black dragons breath again.

Go, Go, Go! Lets go!

Singing the song of Forever and Beyond, together proclaiming As Far as the Eye Can See, justice shall not fall! Today, I will use this three-foot-long blade to slay the black dragon and restore peace and order to this chaotic world.

And so, filled with renewed resolve and understanding, the team prepared to face their fearsome foe once more.
