Chapter 1774 Sweep
Li Yao shook his head slightly, "Dragon Head, it's quite fitting."
Bobo the Dragon Beast proudly said, "In reality, I am the 389th direct descendant of the Black Dragon Demigod, possessing an incredibly noble lineage. And Prairie Fire, you are just a purely weak human, yet you possess such skills and spiritual power. It's an anomaly, I must say, but I saw your rise in the last event, very impressive."
"So you're saying you think you're stronger than me now?" The light in Li Yao's eyes turned cold.
"Not as strong as you now, your accumulation is vast, but that's because we've been trapped in a sub-dimension. In reality, in reality, you're just a junior, not my match, isn't that surprising?" Bobo the Dragon Beast said flatly, as if stating a fact, "The young man you defeated last time wasn't the strongest among our tribe's youths, and they don't even have the right to stand before me."
"Hehehe, maybe. I'm actually looking forward to facing you in reality. But for now, it's about the game. You didn't think a few words would make me back down, did you? That would be way too naive," Li Yao said disdainfully.
"I just thought that with your achievements, you'd be wise enough not to provoke powerful enemies lightly. But it seems I've overestimated you. I just want you to give up on attacking our main city. Provoking us Lizardmen is not a wise choice. If you abandon the main city, I can offer this city to you. You still have many choices available," said Dragon Beast, finally revealing his intention.
"No, no, no. From my perspective, attacking anywhere is the same, but I particularly can't stand you Lizardmen," Li Yao was unmoved. For him, capturing the city was secondary; gathering corpses and accumulating energy units was more important, okay? "Moreover, you overestimate yourself. Stop wasting words. If you want to fight, then let's fight."
"Hahahaha, very well, you'll regret it." Seeing that Li Yao gave him no face at all, Dragon Beast's expression turned extremely dark. He had never suffered such humiliation before.
"Kill." Li Yao was too lazy to waste words with him. This guy was too arrogant. Even if he becomes a Demigod later, so what? There is no one Li Yao can't provoke.
The eyes of the main army's players had long turned red; not to mention Li Yao's reluctance, they were also unwilling. To hand over the city for nothing, how would military merits be recorded then? How would Li Yao fulfill his promises to them? Are we joking?
As Li Yao uttered the word "kill", the players commanded their armies to charge forward directly.
In the sky, the aerial forces began a major battle. On the ground, player armies started to besiege the city.
"Drying Sun, keep advancing, bombard the walls, don't worry about it."
The Queen's hoard has little time, with only a basic shield. While the offensive power is strong, it doesn't have the destructive impact on city walls like the Magic Canon does.
The Drying Sun had no intention of dodging, recklessly charging into the aerial battlefield.
Upon seeing the opportunity to attack the Drying Sun, the Lizardmen promptly attacked, but the shield couldn't be penetrated, not even a fluctuation.
Instead, they became easy targets for the long-range professionals on Drying Sun. In less than five minutes, no aerial troops dared approach Drying Sun.
With the thunderous roar of the Magic Canon, the city walls collapsed in less than fifteen minutes, and the ground troops stormed into the city.
The Lizardmen's air force was indeed fierce, but their numbers were far lower than the main force. Moreover, the main force's air force was no weakling either.
The Lizardmen's air force was similarly retreating step by step, especially as the city walls collapsed below, the Lizardmen's army lost their will to fight.
They were prepared for failure, given that Li Yao brought two Air Fortresses, but they did not expect to fail so quickly. Their original intention was to weaken Starfire's main army, teaching them a lesson and demonstrating the Lizardmen's might, hoping to make Li Yao abandon the attack on their main city.
The result was a one-sided rout, both in the air and on the ground.
"Retreat; there's no need to fight. Preserve our forces for defending the main city," said Bobo the Dragon Beast, his face dark.
Under the protection of a group, he broke through the encirclement. The air force began to dissolve while the Lizardmen ground troops started retreating through another city gate.
"Quite wise, but unfortunately, you still haven't realized that there is no safe place under my watch. The key is whether I want to kill or not."
Li Yao pulled the trigger directly, aiming at the Dragon Head.
"Damn it," the Dragon Head roared furiously. The mount beneath him rolled over. He had been watching Li Yao closely. As soon as Li Yao picked up the gun, he made the mount roll.
Bam...
The bullet pierced through the wyvern's wing, causing the wyvern to scream and plummet.
The Dragon Head spread his dragon wings directly, but before he could take any other actions, Li Yao's second shot had already arrived. This time, nothing could block the bullet, and his reaction couldn't keep up.
With a headshot, Dragon Head's body fell.
"Rescue the leader!"
The others quickly landed, ready to resurrect the Dragon Head.
Li Yao didn't bother, "Form guild units and attack the drowning enemy. Split the two warships to fight separately, taking down the remnants trying to regroup."
The result was already without suspense. Initially, they lacked the numbers of the main force's soldiers, and now, with the retreat ongoing, there was no fighting spirit at all.
After fleeing the city, both the air force and the ground troops were being chased down. As long as they gathered enough numbers, they faced attacks from the two warships.
It took a total of less than half an hour to capture the city, but chasing down the remnants took two more hours.
When the warships returned, the city had already been taken over by the flags of the Undead and Dark Camp, and the NPC army had reoccupied the city.
It's safe to say that the three camps were long prepared, although the NPC army wouldn't attack proactively, but as soon as players recaptured a city, the army would efficiently re-occupy it.
The advantage of this was that players just needed to keep capturing cities without having to worry about defense.
Moreover, with the three camps on guard, it was unlikely for them to have the opportunity to regain the cities, and due to their precarious situation, they couldn't allocate forces to reclaim the cities.
"The Military Governor is indeed swift; it seems our pace for gathering the army is not fast enough. I will open a portal to summon the grand army, preparing to seize more cities," said Witherer.
"Thank you. Please hurry, in less than three hours, the second city will be taken," Li Yao said confidently.
The mention of three hours was mostly for travel time; the actual battle took much less time.
"Rest assured, Military Governor, my king has made comprehensive preparations for this. Those Lizardmen scum won't take back our city again, and I'm sure the Military Governor wants to seize their city, rightfully reclaiming our territory through this opportunity," Witherer said with confidence.
"Quite so, then let us move on to the next," Li Yao directly transmitted back to the Drying Sun, to start the next...
