Free Web NovelChapter 137: Chapter 101: Hand-to-Hand, Fist to Flesh! The Assault is a Success
Meanwhile, the people from the Tourism Management Office—everyone except the players who had inherited Magic abilities—had recovered and were starting to fight back.
At the rear of the city, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Wang Dapang were about to clash with the charging NPC cavalry. Even though the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry wielded submachine guns, their bullets didn’t cause much damage against the cavalry’s golden armor. Having not inherited their full abilities, their offensive options were limited, and they seemed rather ineffective.
But the Hero Zhang Fei was strong! Even though he was also naked at the moment, with no Horse and no equipment, his base stats were incredible. The red Hero, Zhang Fei, activated his Bloodthirsty state and charged the enemy formation alone. He carved a path right through the attacking NPC cavalry formation.
The enemy cavalry was mostly scattered after just a few charges from Zhang Fei. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry following behind him had weak Attack Power, but they had no problem finishing off the stragglers.
SWISH!
SWISH!
SWISH!
As his teammates began fighting within the Forbidden Magic Domain, Shen Fei also controlled his Vine Tower. He formed a dozen towering, jet-black vine pillars that looked like giant pythons and thrust them toward the city wall ahead.
CRACK!
CRACK!

The thick vines moved quickly along the top of the city wall, destroying everything in their path. The guard NPCs on the wall who couldn’t retreat in time were instantly crushed into a pulp by the thick vines. The deactivated Magic Towers were even more easily smashed to smithereens.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
After quickly clearing out the defenseless enemy NPCs, Shen Fei controlled the vines again. He transformed them into the shape of a giant drill and bored directly into the city wall. The first phase of the Neutral City siege, besides breaking the Shield and clearing NPCs, also required destroying the city walls.
Like a flexible drill, Shen Fei’s vines began to bore in and out of the tens-of-meters-high city wall. Within the Forbidden Magic Domain, the Defense Power of the city walls, which were originally covered in magic runes, was greatly reduced, and they began to crumble rapidly.
A dozen minutes later, the battlefield was cleared. Without the support of the Magic Light Columns, the cavalry that had charged out were all eventually killed. At the same time, the enemy Warriors on their Griffins, though they had caused some casualties, were also eventually eliminated.
As for the enemy city, its once-tall surrounding walls were now completely gone. The walls that had encircled the castle had been completely pulverized. Now, the spire-topped castle hidden within was completely exposed.
"Don’t rush! I’ll go find it!"
The battlefield fell silent, but the siege wasn’t over yet. He was worried that mindlessly bombarding the place with the Star-Slaying Tower would destroy the city or cause other unnecessary trouble. So, he had everyone stand guard, treat the wounded, and clean up the battlefield.
Shen Fei controlled the Vine Tower, transforming it into slender vines as thick as a child’s arm. He broke down the castle doors and began to investigate room by room. The castle before them, now stripped of its walls, still covered a three-kilometer radius and contained countless spire-topped buildings. However, this was all within the Vine Tower’s range. Furthermore, the tower could split into innumerable thin tendrils to search everywhere at once.
Shen Fei’s next objective was to find the so-called Heart of the City and destroy it, which would complete the first phase of the capture.
The others quickly complied. Previously, many people had objected to attacking only a small city. Now, everyone was silent. They were all glad Shen Fei had made a good choice. The Magic Light Columns that had just swept across the entire battlefield had terrified them all.
The survivors, who were tallying casualties and waiting for the results of Shen Fei’s search, all breathed a sigh of relief. As they relaxed, someone took out their phone and started to check on the sieges in other cities. During the chaos when the Magic Light Columns were sweeping the battlefield, the person from Qing City responsible for livestreaming the siege had been killed. Now that things had quieted down, Li Yunlong arranged for someone else to get the Qing City livestream running again.
WHIRR.
WHIRR.
WHIRR.
While the others got busy, Shen Fei deployed his Detection Tower, having it follow the thin vines to investigate the interiors of the castle rooms whose doors had been forced open.
Hm?
He quickly scanned past the empty rooms. Soon, Shen Fei discovered something unusual in a large building toward the rear of the castle. In a vast hall stood a red Crystal taller than a person. Next to the Crystal stood a white-bearded old man holding a thick Magic Staff and wearing a pointed hat.
Seeing the 500,000 HP displayed above the red Crystal, Shen Fei knew he had come to the right place.
"Get out!"
The vines immediately swarmed toward the Crystal. Shen Fei was surprised that the old man even tried to stop him. Without a second thought, countless cobra-like vines rose from the floor and viciously stabbed at the white-bearded old man.
SHLICK!
I thought this last white-bearded old man was a boss. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Shen Fei had been ready to deploy another Defense Tower at any moment. He never expected that a single thin vine would impale the white-bearded old man completely. This old man, holding a thick Magic Staff and dressed in mysterious robes, had been killed with shocking ease.
What the hell! Could it be that the Forbidden Magic Domain turned a powerful Mage into an ordinary person?
Watching the mysterious old man’s corpse slowly despawn, Shen Fei muttered to himself and began to merge the thin vines. Soon, the countless slender vines twisted together like rope, merging back into a single giant python as thick as a bucket.
Then, the "python" slithered forward quickly and coiled around the spindle-shaped red Crystal that was taller than a person.
CREAK...
CREAK...
CREAK...
The vine wrapped around the Crystal and began to slowly apply pressure, as if trying to merge into the hard Crystal itself.
