Retreat?

Was she joking? They had already gotten so far, how could they possibly just retreat like that?

Queen Jiao’s command was nearly unanimously ignored. Only a few players stopped in their tracks and looked around.

“Kill them!”

Suddenly, someone yelled out and incensed the crowd. Like the tide, the army swept in…

Several thousand Steel-armored Tanks appeared, and some jumped into the tanks while others charged forth on foot. The Invincible Continent Army of millions spread out like a fan, advancing quickly.

When the Invincible Continent Army was less than 500 meters away, Bai Xiaoya pointed with her flute and officially began the attack.

The ballistae and catapults fired relentlessly, and the thousands of Wizards chanted their incantations, casting Blizzard all at once. They did not aim to attack the enemy, but to cover the ground with ice.

Steel-armored Tanks were weakest against ballistae, because each hit of a ballista would instantly take away several million HP. The Heavy Bombs catapulted at them were no weaker, exploding as soon as they landed. Be it the players or the tanks, getting caught in the explosion meant losing half of their HP.

“Bam bam bam bam!”

Amidst the intense fire between the two sides, the Invincible Continent had more fighters, but the Fluttering Snow Continent the better-prepared of the two sides.

The Invincible Continent players had not even reached the Fluttering Snow City wall, but they had already lost more than 300,000 players. As for the Fluttering Snow Continent, they had only lost a handful of players. Their topographical advantage greatly reduced the damage they suffered.

Li Yi took the front while Jiaojiao followed behind him, weaving between the Heavy Bombs and ballista arrows. Li Yi had long ago released his Territory, and the golden light barrier covered everything within 40 square yards of him, so every attack that entered the barrier became slow as snails.

“Charge in with the Guild Master!”

Many players saw that, so all of them rushed toward Li Yi, advancing together with the golden light barrier.

40 square yards could fit a few hundred people comfortably, but it was not quite possible to fit any more people than that. Add that to the fact that the barrier moved with Li Yi, and it meant that while the players closer to him were fine, the ones on the outer rim were in for a rough time. As soon as they left the barrier, the attacks that had been slowed down would rain down on them instantly. There was not even time for them to dodge.

“Jiaojiao, follow behind me!”

Li Yi had no time to care about the others now. Territory Release required a great deal of Territory Power, so if he did not advance quickly, there was no telling if he could even last until he could engage Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut in battle.

The Holy Light Warhorse neighed loudly and suddenly put on a burst of speed. Jiaojiao was ready for it, so she followed closely behind him, but the others were not so quick to react. As a result, many players fell out of the pack, and the loss of the Territory light barrier meant that the slowed-down attacks immediately returned to normal, crashing down on his head…

“Pitter patter! Pitter patter!”

Li Yi and Jiaojiao rushed to the forefront, and awaiting them was a ground covered with ice. The thousands of Fluttering Snow Continent players had been unleashing Blizzard constantly, so the ground was now covered in sleet a meter thick.

Of course, if the Wizards stopped casting the ice on the ground would vanish within a few seconds too, so they had no choice but to constantly cast their magic just to keep the ice there.

Li Yi simply leaped onto the ice, and the Holy Light Warhorse continued to trot forth at a steady pace.

Black Wing had been waiting for him, so the moment Li Yi stepped onto the ice, he immediately charged at him with Flash.

“Let’s battle, my idol!”

A layer of transparent ice appeared around Black Wing’s body, expanding instantly. The clear white ice crystal spread quickly, freezing the ice produced by the thousands of Wizards into a large glacier.

“Ten Miles Frozen!”

Li Yi was riding his Holy Light Warhorse, and halfway through a leap, he was frozen into the iceberg.

“Hahaha, we did it!” Bai Xiaoya could not help but clap and laugh, completely beside herself.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut frowned slightly and shook her head, urging her Crimson Emperor Warhorse forward.

“Open up!”

Jiaojiao swung her greatsword and hacked at the iceberg, emitting a cacophony of cracks. While the iceberg was quite solid, how could it stand up to Jiaojiao’s Lord of Disaster? Within two slashes, the iceberg began to crack.

Just then, Li Yi dismissed his mount in the iceberg and drew his Orange Quality Bow, aiming at Black Wing.

“Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst-brrrr—”

He abruptly unleashed a Quintuple Powered-up Arrow, and it pierced through the iceberg easily, flying toward Black Wing.

“Psst psst—”

There was a wisp of white smoke, and the giant iceberg melted in the blink of an eye. Black Wing could freeze Unending Unmatched and his Shieldsword, but it could not keep Li Yi and his Territory Release under wraps.

The transparent ice crystal appeared before Black Wing and he tried to block the Powered-up Arrow, but unfortunately the arrow just had too much penetrating power. It somehow pushed Black Wing ten meters back before finally running out of momentum and falling to the ground.

Black Wing looked somewhat disheveled now, but the Powered-up Arrow had not pierced through the Ice Shield, so he did not suffer any damage.

By then, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut had reached them. However, her target was not Li Yi, but the army of players behind him.

Ten Steel-armored Tanks had already reached them. If they were not stopped, her side would suffer heavy damages.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut dismissed her mount, and a layer of golden light enveloped her fists. With a loud bark, she smashed them into the ground…

“Barroom…”

The surface of the ground exploded as though there was a monster crawling underneath its surface. In an instant, all ten tanks were caught in the blast and sent flying into the sky.

“F*ck you…”

“What the f*ck….”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut ignored their curses, instead turning around to face Li Yi.

Li Yi did not just stand there, either. While Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut had been waving her iron fists around, he had activated God Mode and was shooting wildly at the ballistae on the city walls.

“Overlord Arrow!”

“Bam-bam-bam-bam-bam-bam…”

He shot out 21 Overlord Arrows at once, destroying 29 Iron Ballistae. Only then did Li Yi turn around to look at Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut, chuckling.

Thanks to the Evil God Summoning Scroll, his mana was continuously recovering.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut stretched her arms back and abruptly threw a large white net straight over Li Yi’s head…

The white web flew extremely quickly, but Li Yi was even faster. Just as the white web was about to capture him, he bent over backward suddenly, dodging it by a fraction….

“Ba-thump!”

He used Pseudocide!

Before Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut could pull back the white web, Li Yi got up and downed a Sacred Hope Potion before turning back toward the city walls and firing madly.

“Overlord Arrow!”

“Bam-bam-bam-bam-bam-bam…”

If he attacked Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut now, perhaps he might not be able to kill her, but he definitely would be able to injure her. However, Li Yi chose not to do that, because he wanted to prevent the Invincible Continent players from taking more damage. That was why he aimed at the Iron Ballistae and the catapults instead.

Li Yi ran out of mana again, and another thirty-odd Iron Ballistae were destroyed. Bao Xiaoya could not stand it anymore, so she immediately commanded at the top of her voice, “Shield Wall!”

Two main tanks equipped with shields appeared and stood in front of the ballistae and catapults. It looked as though they planned the block Li Yi’s arrows with their bodies.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut pulled back the net and ran full-tilt toward Li Yi. On the other hand, Black Wing recovered as well, but he was extremely far away, so he cast Blizzard to attack Li Yi.

“You handle the Dwarf and I’ll take the woman!”

Jiaojiao shouted loudly and swung her greatsword toward Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut swung her fists in retaliation, and the fist met the sword with a loud clang. The two women were both affected by the momentum, each taking several steps back before they could regain their footing.

Jiaojiao shook her little head. “Your hands sure are hard. I pity your husband.”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut did not reply, choosing instead to smash her golden fists at the ground. Just like how she took down the tanks, the ground began to split open, and Jiaojiao used her long legs to leap around it. It was smooth sailing at first, but she soon began to lose her balance. In her desperation, she landed like a cowgirl and was immediately blown sky-high…

Black Wing rubbed out his ice spear and stabbed it at Li Yi, but Li Yi approached Black Wing quickly, releasing his Territory light barrier to envelope him in it.

Everything was pointless in the face of Territory Power! Inside my Territory, you were practically a lamb ready for slaughter!

Black Wing was affected by Li Yi’s Territory, and he immediately found himself slowing down. His skills took longer to release, and he began to walk like an astronaut in space.

“Meteor Arrow!”

“Bam-bam-bam-bam-bam…”

Li Yi shot relentlessly at Black Wing. At first, Black Wing had his Ice Shield to protect him and knock way the Meteor Arrow. As Li Yi continued to fire, however, the Ice Shield around him suddenly vanished mysteriously. Without the protection of the Ice Shield, the fragile Wizard was taken down within two arrows.

It just so happened that Jiaojiao was sent flying at the same time, and she just happened to crash toward Li Yi. Li Yi reached out his hands to catch her, but he was one step too late and did not catch her in time, so once again she landed in the cowgirl position.

“Sorry, twas a miscalculation. I was just a little off.”

“F*ck you and your horse…” Jiaojiao was so angry that she stayed there for a long while.

“Bang-bang! Bang-bang!”

The Iron Ballistae and the catapults never stopped attacking, but the Invincible Continent players had already reached the city walls. The Fluttering Snow Continent players set out to engage them as well, and the chaotic melee began…

Li Yi glanced around and saw that Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was gone. He then turned around and was shocked to see that Black Wing had gotten up, releasing a Frost Rising Star to freeze the players around him and then using Flash to return to his camp.

That punk must have a Holy Light Talisman or some other item that allowed him to resurrect on the spot…

He was surrounded by players on all sides, so it was hard for him to advance even if he wanted to. Even then, the Iron Ballistae on the city walls were still firing madly, so the Invincible Continent players suffered heavy losses.

With the Gravitational Spell Circle in place, he could not fly even in God Mode, as he would fall from the sky as soon as he tried. The more he tried to fly, the stronger the gravitational pull would be, and if he tried to force it, he would soon become as heavy as lead. When that happened, forget flying, he would barely even be able to move.

Li Yi strained his eyes as hard as they would go, but he could only see the Fluttering Snow Alliance’s three Vice Alliance Leaders fighting nearby. Bai Xiaoya had vanished without a trace.

“Anyone got visuals on Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and Bai Xiaoya, report immediately!” Li Yi yelled on the National Channel.

“Negative!”

“Negative!”

Everyone on the National Channel just replied in the negative, and Li Yi felt a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach.

“Barroom! Barroom!”

There were two loud claps of thunder, and the previously clear skies were instantly engulfed by dark clouds. He raised his gaze and saw lightning bolts as thick as buckets flashing among the clouds.

Li Yi’s expression changed. “Crap, retreat!”
