Chapter 1 The Stalemate

The situation had reached a strange stalemate.

Chen Luo tossed the apple core, all that remained of his snack, into the opposing crowd, scattering them in alarm.

Chen Luo shook his head. Were these guys sent by a bunch of monkeys?

To fight or not to fight?

Ye Gaofei's expression was unsightly. He realized that when faced with a tough opponent, none of the people under him were of any use.

Did he have to do it himself?

After a moment's thought, Ye Gaofei said softly to Han Ya, "Han Ya, why don't you go? You're Level Four. I'll have Lu Wen add a defense for you. Level Three attacks won't hurt you. If we keep this up, I'll lose face."

With so many people here, it was normal for Ye Gaofei to have a Light-type user. It was just that her talent was too poor, and she was discovered late. Ye Gaofei supplied her with Level Three crystals, but she was only at the peak of Level Two.

Ye Gaofei's "tenderness" almost melted Han Ya's heart. Gaofei was actually so gentle! She couldn't let Ye Gaofei lose face; she had to step up.

Han Ya nodded without hesitation.

Ye Gaofei also found a dozen or so Earth-type ability users who could create earth shields.

Ye Gaofei coldly swept his gaze over the crowd. "Everyone, follow behind them. If anyone dares to hold back, I'll electrocute him on the spot."

Han Ya said in a cold voice, "Charge!"

Han Ya was, after all, a woman, and felt a little flustered, but for Ye Gaofei, she had to go forward fearlessly.

Han Ya thought to herself, "I just need to watch out for Chen Luo. No one else can seriously injure me."

With someone taking the lead and Ye Gaofei's threats, the others could only follow, grumbling inwardly.

Damn it, they're only attacking now? So slow.

They finally got close, entering the range of their abilities.

First, the four members on the high walls on either side of the entrance each used a skill. They were all Level Three, and not area-of-effect skills, so they were ineffective and blocked by the earth shields.

Han Ya glanced at them coldly, and kicked open the iron gate at the entrance, only to find a strange earth wall inside.

This earth wall was very thick, only one and a half meters high, and about thirty meters long. What was it for?

The next second, she found out. Dozens of figures emerged from under the earth wall, and the spells condensed in the hands of two of the women made Han Ya's hair stand on end.

It was Mi Ling and Shu Yun.

Shu Yun didn't have much presence, but Chen Luo knew that she also had King-level talent. She could initially absorb seven crystals, a little less than Mi Ling, and at the same level as Xia Haoran.

She had also reached Level Four early on.

Mi Ling had already prepared a blazing fireball. Not Fire Snake, as Fire Snake wasn't as damaging as Fireball Explosion.

Shu Yun, on the other hand, had a highly condensed giant snowball.

Under their control, they released them instantly.

Han Ya didn't have time to think. She grabbed someone and held them in front of her to block the attacks, but it was useless. These were two explosive skills.

Two explosions rang out in succession, and a dozen figures were sent flying into the air. The earth shields couldn't protect them at all.

Han Ya, in the center, spat out a large mouthful of blood and flew backwards, with only one thought in her mind.

Two Level Fours, otherwise the damage wouldn't have been so high.

Han Ya passed out, but didn't die. Her strong vitality left her with a breath of life.

If the Light-type user hadn't added a little defense for her, being hit head-on by two Elemental-type skills of the same level would have killed her instantly.

Fa Wang was held tightly by Chen Luo at the back. "We don't need you! What are you doing? Let the others train a bit."

Fa Wang's eyes were bloodshot. "Points! My points! What's the meaning of holding me back so tightly? Are you rigging the game?"

"Awoo! Awoo!"

Fa Wang shouted anxiously, "My points! Are you running a scam?"

"Fine, I won't be the dog leader anymore. A dog elder is fine."

Fa Wang struggled desperately, with such strength that even Chen Luo couldn't hold him.

Fa Wang rushed out like a bolt of lightning.

Chen Luo was very depressed. He remembered that Fa Wang was also very cautious, so why was he fighting so desperately?

Fa Wang rushed out of the entrance, aiming to capture the leader first. He had just seen who the leader was, and killing the leader would yield a large number of points. How many points could he get from killing small fry?

And if he obtained another Level Four crystal and turned it in, wouldn't that be wonderful?

On Ye Gaofei's side, people were挤着人 (jǐ zhe rén - squeezed together so tightly that they were practically one mass), making it difficult to retreat. Ye Gaofei was urging them on from behind.

Seeing Han Ya fly out, his pupils shrank. "How is that possible?

"Are those two Level Four?"

As Mi Ling and Shu Yun attacked, the others weren't idle either, throwing their skills out one after another. Dozens of skills were fired at the same time, instantly killing the survivors who had entered first.

After releasing their skills, they squatted behind the earth wall to continue condensing their next skill.

Seeing that the people in front were all dead, the others really didn't dare to go forward. As far as they were concerned, this wasn't a battle they had to fight. There was no reason to fight to the death.

Instead of moving forward, they squeezed back.

Chen Luo curled his lips. They were all newbies who hadn't seen blood, and they lacked strict discipline.

Chen Luo waved his hand, and Xia Haoran and Su Dazhu led a dozen or so Strength-type users to the front, followed by a group of Elemental-type users, and charged out proactively.

Xia Haoran and Su Dazhu had both been buffed by Mi Li. Mi Li was Level Four, and their defensive power was now almost comparable to Chen Luo's Level Five.

Especially Su Dazhu. Although his strength was a little lower, his defense was probably the best in the field.

If Chen Luo mainly increased Void Walk, Xia Haoran focused on strength, then Su Dazhu focused on defense.

His strength was low only relatively speaking. Su Dazhu wielded a large iron rod, knocking down one kid after another with each swing.

Xia Haoran, on the other hand, simply used his fists.

Their imposing aura, like gods descending to earth, intimidated the opposing side.

Level Three attacks were difficult to damage them, let alone Level Two attacks.

Ye Gaofei realized that they couldn't attack from the main entrance and had to break through the earth wall. Seeing Su Dazhu and Xia Haoran, his mouth hung open.

"Whose generals are these? They're so brave!"

"Aren't they treating survivors like people at all?"

While he was still in a daze, he heard someone shout, "Dog! There's a dog!"

Ye Gaofei wasn't in the mood to eat dog meat at this time and was very annoyed. "If there's a dog, just kill it!"

Then he saw a dog leap high, reaching a jumping height that ordinary dogs could never achieve, and it was rushing towards him.

Ye Gaofei was dumbfounded on the spot. "Flying Dog War God?"

Thousands of people watched the dog leaping into the air, and saw it condensing a terrifying lightning ball in its mouth.

With a "boom," the lightning ball exploded, blasting away several people around Ye Gaofei.

Ye Gaofei didn't have many people around him to begin with, and now there were even fewer left.

Ye Gaofei stared blankly. "This power seems to be even stronger than my ability!"

The dog landed, then leaped high again, heading straight for Ye Gaofei.

This time, Fa Wang's right forepaw was completely enveloped in lightning, shining brightly in the dark night.

Ye Gaofei wanted to dodge, but found that the dog had flashed with lightning and appeared in front of him.

"Lightning Palm!"

Ye Gaofei spat out a large mouthful of blood and flew out.

Fa Wang didn't stop, flashing with lightning to reach his landing point before Ye Gaofei hit the ground.

"Thunder Sweep Tail!"

Ye Gaofei, who hadn't landed yet, flew up again.

He really flew high.

After being attacked twice with full force by Fa Wang, Ye Gaofei was silent after landing.

The surrounding people seemed to hear two letters in their heads.

KO.
