Free Web NovelChapter 1488: Defense Border Part 3
Autumn Breeze kept silent in response to Gentle Wind’s question.
Hostile takeover?
Honestly, it would be a lie if she didn’t have such a thought process.
As a businesswoman, it was only right for her to constantly think about expanding her company and increasing her power.
And the Feng Enterprise was indeed a great company to take over. Their products would easily complement their Zhao Enterprise.
"Argh, I’m going to kill you." Gentle Wind snapped and pounced on her.
"Chill," Autumn Breeze hurriedly resisted and tried her best to deflect her assault.
"Wait, the Vanguard Guild is starting to shift the battle." Autumn Breeze suddenly said and halted Gentle Wind.
"They shifted the battle?"
A few seconds later, the two sat down quietly and watched the stream.
...
Defense Border Stream
"Viewers, this is unbelievable!" Cute Joy exclaimed in disbelief. "The NPC soldiers have successfully created a blockade with the debris. The players from the Vanguard Guild are now retreating like flocks."
The camera then panned toward the Vanguard Guild members covering each other’s retreat as they fended off the monsters.
Unfortunately, the overwhelming number of monsters made it hard for everyone to escape safely.
An Arcane Mage was pounced on and was quickly swarmed by the monster.
"Screw you all!" The Arcane Mage hissed and unleashed a devastating spell, taking as many monsters as it could down with them.
KABOOM!
A mini mushroom cloud was emitted into the sky. The damages were devastating enough, but the monsters that were a bit far off in the distance survived due to their sturdy body.
A little bit over 13 monsters were heavily injured in the radius, with only 2 dead from the blast.
"This is really crazy..." A level 71 Assassin muttered.
If that kind of attack were used on regular monsters, it would have been more than enough.
However, the monsters were led by an intelligent commander, who had quickly commanded the monsters to take a defensive position.
When a monster assumed a full defensive stance, even the strongest DPS player would find it difficult to kill it fast.
"Try your best to come back up!" Xu Feng’s voice quickly resounded. "To those who are encircled and trapped, you are already dead. Just do your best to deal as much damage as you can."
"Yes, Guild Leader!"
With Xu Feng’s voice echoing among them, the members could only fend for themselves.
If it were any other time, Xu Feng wouldn’t have let them die without a struggle. But he couldn’t afford to, as he was busy trying to figure out who the commander was on the monster’s side.
Simultaneously, he couldn’t afford to let them figure out that they were planning on a flooding tactic.
"Mages, keep your eyes on the lookout for any irregular animals in the vicinity." He turned to a few selective members who had high accuracy.
Since the bird incident, he needed to make sure that the enemy couldn’t spy on them easily again.
"Don’t worry, everything will be killed on sight."
One of the chosen Mages happened to be Cindersong, who immediately fired lightning bolts all across the sky.
Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, a few airborne animals in the sky were shot down, with the majority of them dissipating into mana-based substance.
Xu Feng glanced at her in surprise. "Those airborne animals are so far away, but you can still accurately hit them."
"I’ve been practicing long-distance shooting for a while," Cindersong explained.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad." Although she explained it in a nonchalant manner, Xu Feng knew better how difficult it was to pull off the moves.
Not to mention, her detection range to sniff out them being a summoned creature at such a distance was impressive.
"I’ll leave the leadership to you in this aspect."
"Got it."
Sometime later, Xu Feng left the scene to assist the rest of the members in heals and buffs.
To those who could still make it out alive, he would try his best to save them.
He wielded his staff and cast a large AoE healing. "Forget about retaliating and make your way to the top." freёwebnovel.com
Just now, the signal from Kong Ming was released.
The flood was about to befall, so everyone needed to be out of the vicinity.
"GROWL!"
Amidst their retreat, the monsters suddenly howled in fury.
The howling quickly stunned the remaining members who were still quite a distance off from the safety point.
’Crap, a stunning howl?’ Xu Feng twitched his mouth in disbelief. He quickly took a glance at his members’ health bar, and they were precisely at a dangerous rate.
"Tsk, they have learned about me." To other healers, this would be near impossible to save, but not for him.
However, he would be exposing himself to the enemy commander.
To be exposed in such a manner meant that he would become a prioritized target.
"Ugh, the life of a healer is sometimes called a tank for a reason." He pursed his lips and made up his mind.
Without hesitation, he leaped down from the cliff and arrived in front of the members.
"Guild Leader?"
His actions astonished the rest of the members.
"Continue your retreat." Xu Feng calmly said and wielded his staff to create a large barrier. The barrier itself exuded a powerful pressure, effectively deflecting the swarming monsters.
CLANK!
Nevertheless, the monsters’ assault was relentless. They continued to bombard the barrier, causing huge fissure cracks all across the dome.
At the same time, Xu Feng’s mana began to drop at a rapid rate as he attempted to sustain the barrier from falling.
-235,000
-256,000
’What the heck?’ Xu Feng’s eyes widened in disbelief when his barrier started taking a large chunk of damage.
These monsters actually had shield-breaking attributes???!
How ridiculous was the army that he was facing?
’Damn it!’ He gnashed his teeth and canceled the barrier. It was not worth keeping the barrier open when the enemies could easily destroy it.
He stared at the near stampede scene in front of him and exhaled softly.
The stream was still playing, so he didn’t wish to reveal too much of his ability, but he could no longer afford to conceal his skills.
He stepped forward and unleashed his Domain Field.
