"Ang ang!"

Outside of the city, a bunch of Slicer Bugs pounced over and gave out a shocking sound. I stood on the city walls and frowned as I looked at them. I felt like the walls would be destroyed by this wave.

"July Wildfire!"

Right at that moment, a Lingyan Pavilion player shouted from the walls, "Don't run away, you are the main force, if you leave the wall will be lost!"

"Don't worry!"

I laughed, "I will try my best!"

I turned into a streak of lightning that disappeared from the spot. I used Dark Shadow Jump and appeared in front of the Slicer Bugs. These things were huge and I had to raise my head to hit them. I held my daggers in front of me and used Flames of Karma+Annihilation+Hunter's Edge to deal 50% damage. The Slicer Bug roared and its two pincer-like clamps slashed at me at a really high speed!

Block!

I held my daggers up separately to block them but the moment they hit these clamps, it was as if I was hitting iron. Sparks flew and my hands started to hurt like they were being dislocated. I was forced back and lost 20 thousand health. That bite was so vicious!

"Peng!"

I smashed onto the walls and I didn't have a chance to breathe at all. Another Slicer Bugs's 'scissors' stabbed half a meter deep into the wall. It screeched and dragged its 'scissors' out, causing the wall to rip. Stones flew up and a clean hole appeared!

It was done!

I sucked in a deep breath and entered Flames Transformation. I used Apprehension and covered the heads of dozens of them. At the same time, I slashed with my daggers and skills exploded into them. After transformation, I was barely able to be on their level and survive.

Outside of the city, only a few people were trying to fend them off.

Lin Xi waved her sword and her body was bathed in the dawn light as she charged about the front of With You's formation. She managed to reduce the pressure on With You. Even further away, Fengxian held his sword and he was like Lu Bu, slashing about among the monsters. Although he didn't have a transformation skill, but he had his fighting style. Moreover, he had many priests healing him so that was enough.

...

But,

after all, there were only a few people standing outside the walls. At this moment, large amounts of Slicer Bugs were being bombed by the range players and they were furious. They smashed into the walls and used their scissors to attack. The entire wall was shaking.

In the distance, when Elements and Limitless killed the Boss of the last wave, there was a loud explosion. Close to 100 meters of wall collapsed. While crushing many NPCs, the players were in a bad state too. They fled towards the empty space on the inner wall.

Finally we were in a wild battle state.

"Brothers!"

In the distance, Feng Canghai slashed a low health Slicer Bug and shouted, "The wall is gone and the region within will turn into a wild region. We have no choice, all players have to fight to the death. If not, we might fail this event.... All our rewards might be lost, no matter what, we have to block them!"

"Right!"

Yanshi Bugong led everyone to turn around and his sword dragged a line of sparks, "Limitless listen up, defend this line. We have to block them in the city!"

"Winds of Battle listen up!"

Winds of Battle Fengxian led his horse around the wall and wave his sword. He went opposite of Yanshi Bugong's line and said, "Brothers set up your defence along this line and assist Limitless!"

In the With You direction, Lin Xi led Light Lantern and the others to draw a line and make up for the breach.

"Attack!"

Breaking Dawn Ash appeared in the crowd and he pointed his sword backward, "Brothers of Breaking Dawn, form up to the west of this place, quick! The Slicer Bugs are about to arrive!"

Even For Dreams and Lingyan Pavilion formed up too. At this moment, Winter Sun City players showed unity. Everyone didn't hold back and threw themselves into this battle.

On the collapsed wall, I retreated and the light around my body grew, attracting thousands of them. I was the only one on the walls and many of them charged at me. Under such heavy attacks, my health couldn't increase and was maintained around 30%. My lifesteal wasn't able to help me tank their damage.

These Slicer Bugs were just so vicious!

But, because of me, the Winter Sun City players were able to set up their defences. If not, the Slicer Bugs would surge at them and their defence line would be scattered before it could even be formed up.

...

I couldn't take it anymore, retreat!

I waved my dagger and sliced one of their heads into pieces. Green liquid splattered and it felt disgusting. At that moment, I was down to 20% health and I was in danger of being killed.

"This..."

Lin Xi looked towards me and gritted her teeth. She entered White Star state and her eyes were covered in silver. Her hair was like snow and she rode her horse over, "Dummy, aren't you leaving? !"

Sword energy surged around her as she used Bladestorm to help me out!

Retreat!

I used Dark Shadow Jump to open a path as I retreated. I looked at Lin Xi's back and said loudly, "Lin Xi thank you!"

She gritted her teeth and turned around. She didn't look at me but just said, "I am not saving you, it is because you drew too much agro!"

"..."

...

White Cloak!

The moment I disappeared, numerous Slicer Bugs lost their target. A portion of them charged at the formations while some of them searched for their own targets. Some headed towards the waist of the mountain, some towards the NPCs, some just walked around in wait of orders.

"Pu!"

A blood light flashed across as Moonlight Firefly appeared to stun a Slicer Bug. Then Mundane Slaughter appeared and used Backstab+Godslaying Blade+Mist Slash. The damage was enough. The moment the slicer bug turned around, Mundane Slaughter gouged it and Moonlight Firefly used Backstab. The two of them caused a full health slicer bug to be down to low health.

They pulled aggro just like that and one could see the coordination between Assassins. However, it was rare for them to reach the level of Mundane Slaughter and Moonlight Firefly.

"Eh..."

Moonlight Firefly killed monsters while saying, "She obviously wanted to save Brother Seven but she is just so stubborn..."

"Yea."

Mundane Slaughter used Whirlwind blade and said, "You obviously have each other in your hearts but you act like strangers. I don't understand these people."

I frowned, "Then, who is obviously?"

Everyone laughed.

Nine Song and Wet July appeared and they started to hunt Slicer Bugs in groups of 3-5. Our battlefield was in the forest at the side and there were limited number of them but this was suitable for us Assassins. Assassin Alliance members appeared all around. Once the Dimension Legion broke through the walls, this was our chance.

...

I didn't follow them and instead returned to the main battlefield. I pierced in from a corner and solo-ed 10-20 of them. Basically, if my movement was correct, I didn't need to transform.

On the main battlefield, dozens of guilds were attacked by the Slicer Bugs and suffered heavy losses. Many guilds had lost their frontline players. Even guilds like Limitless, where Yanshi Bugong was left with only a few people around him. The first line of defence was being focused on and killed.

Feng Canghai waved his sword and used Intense Flame State to charge about but his expression wasn't good. Elements had suffered huge losses and apart from Lin Songyan and him, the frontline players had all died once. For a guild like Elements, they couldn't handle such a loss.

However, apart from barely holding on, everyone had no other choice.

...

"Di!"

Right when I was killing the monsters, a message came from Ah Fei, "Brother, I think I should retreat..."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

He smiled awkwardly, "I am level 76 now, logically speaking I have gained enough. You saw how strong they are, I will get killed if I am not careful. Why not I return to reduce the losses. Is that right?"

"Damn..."

I was speechless, "That makes sense, leave the battle and go back!"

"Okay, with your words I can head back now!"

Ah Fei was back at Winter Sun City and sent me a message, "It is 8pm already, do you need me to buy something for you since you haven't eaten since morning?"

"No need, let's eat supper together. The event should end before then."

"Great~~"

...

In truth, I was tired and hungry but I had no choice. Winter Sun City needed me!
