Therefore, when faced with Zhou Tian’s threat, those NPCs, after much consideration, eventually gritted their teeth and made a rather risky decision at that moment.
If they were to follow Zhou Tian’s methods, those NPCs would certainly face defeat. Clearly not wanting to let Zhou Tian destroy their homeland, they came up with an unorthodox method to counter Zhou Tian’s actions after lengthy deliberation based on the situation at the time.
By conventional means, those NPCs obviously had no way to cope with Zhou Tian’s current tactics. Therefore, after much thought, those NPCs felt that if they wanted to distinguish the real from the fake Zhou Tian, they could only resort to combat, If it was the real Zhou Tian, they could gravely injure him with magic crystal weapons, given their prepared aim. However, if the Zhou Tian they faced was an impostor, then their powerful beings, as long as they were strong enough, could kill it without consuming any magic crystals.
Of course, this decision was made under the circumstances that those NPCs felt their magic crystals were becoming scarce. If it weren’t for this reason, with the strength of those Domain-based powerful beings, no matter how many magic crystals they spent, it would be highly unlikely for them to risk battling Zhou Tian’s clone bodies.
"Charge!" In a dire situation, a group of NPC warriors leaped out of their Main City and confronted Zhou Tian’s clone body, which he had replicated countless times by then.
Without wasting words, upon a command from the leading NPC, those NPC warriors pounced on Zhou Tian’s clone body in unison.
What ensued was simple. Amidst the siege by a large group of NPC warriors, although Zhou Tian’s clone body at that time possessed certain abilities, it lacked intelligence and thus under Zhou Tian’s remote control, it did not take long for those NPCs to kill it.
However, obviously, given the situation, Zhou Tian could hardly be bothered about the life or death of a single clone body.
"Let them kill, see how many they can kill!" Zhou Tian muttered indifferently. After his clone was killed by the NPCs, in the blink of an eye, he replicated two more and let them loose.
As Zhou Tian’s clone bodies appeared in the NPCs’ line of sight, another battle quickly ensued.
Given the NPCs’ strength, even if Zhou Tian sent one more clone body, it was still difficult to alter the balance of power. After a struggle, Zhou Tian’s two clone bodies ultimately fell to the group of NPCs.
Yet without Zhou Tian’s permanent defeat, those NPCs couldn’t truly win. So despite the appearance of victory at that moment, as Zhou Tian exerted his power, those NPCs soon found themselves in trouble once again.
If two were useless, then use four. With Zhou Tian feeling no threat from those NPCs, he seemed to treat the ongoing battle as a game, playing the role of the great demon lord bestowing ’Experience’ to the NPC warriors. Under Zhou Tian’s new abilities, it was believed that if the NPCs didn’t find some other tactic, Zhou Tian’s clone bodies would be endlessly slaughtered.
After repeatedly killing Zhou Tian’s clones, those NPCs realized that no matter how they killed them, more ’Zhou Tian’ would always emerge. It seemed as though replicating these ’avatars’ caused Zhou Tian no energy consumption at all. freewebnøvel.com
While the NPCs could not be certain that replicating these ’avatars’ cost Zhou Tian nothing, such ongoing battles were decidedly to their disadvantage. If Zhou Tian truly could continue indefinitely, they would not be able to hold out for long. fгeewebnovёl.com
Noticing their significant consumption, those NPC warriors eventually decided not to persevere in this manner after some contemplation.
If their consumption couldn’t keep up with Zhou Tian’s, then there was no point in continuing their forceful actions against Zhou Tian’s clone bodies. Accordingly, based on the situation, they had to retreat—and do so quickly. For if they fled too slowly, Zhou Tian’s clone bodies might have a chance to hold them back.
"Retreat!" With many NPCs considering retreat, once the command was issued, a majority of them immediately began pulling back. However, as those NPCs began their withdrawal, their actions immediately elicited Zhou Tian’s response.
The NPCs’ strength was not weak. If outright combat ensued, even if Zhou Tian could emerge victorious, it would undoubtedly cost him something. But with those NPCs presumptuously trying to crack his Emperor-level ability in this manner, while achieving little success, they inadvertently provided Zhou Tian with advantageous conditions.
Thanks to the particular nature of the clone bodies, even if Zhou Tian alone had to compete in consumption against an entire troop, ultimately he was certain to outlast them. The longer the NPC warriors battled Zhou Tian’s clone bodies, the greater the difference in their strengths would become. Once their consumption reached a certain level, the group of NPC warriors would pose no threat to Zhou Tian at all.
So given the situation, if those NPC warriors wanted to continue in that vein, Zhou Tian wouldn’t mind keeping on giving them ’Experience.’ But now, as those NPCs prepared to retreat, Zhou Tian couldn’t possibly let them go.(To be continued.
