Chapter 1827 1827: The Boldness of the Skilled
Of course, although that is said, the major families and enterprises of the world aren't lacking in funds; besides, offering one million gold coins to invite the top national team for assistance isn't a bad deal.
Nine Solitary Spears is quite the crafty one; while he claims it's too expensive, he didn't hesitate to agree immediately.
...
Dragon Island and Sky Dragon City face each other across the water. If players weren't floating in the air, they wouldn't even need a teleportation array to get there. The evil dragon Morphes, as a member of the dragon race, has a flying speed that is impressive. While Wang Yu and the others were bickering with Nine Solitary Spears, a black dot appeared in the distance, clearly the evil dragon Morphes.
Morphes approached Sky Dragon City at an incredible speed, and by the time everyone clearly saw what Morphes looked like, he was already less than five hundred meters away from the city.
As a high-ranking dragon, Morphes was originally a giant dragon over three meters tall, and now that his seal has been lifted, his power has surged, causing his size to double.
Although Sky Dragon City is not as large as Holy Light City, it is still a fortress-type city in its backstory, and after reconstruction, the walls have been reinforced. The walls now stand at a height of about seventeen or eighteen meters, but even so, Morphes's size towers over them.
Under Nine Solitary Spears's coordination, the players of Apocalypse had already set up their defensive formations on the city walls, but upon seeing the massive body of the evil dragon Morphes, everyone felt a rush of fear.
While it's not always the case that larger opponents are stronger than smaller ones, both in games and reality, the most intuitive way to judge an opponent's strength is by their size.
For instance, if you put someone like the small and weak Mario next to a person who is eight feet tall and well-built, anyone can immediately tell who is the attacker and who is the defender. And now their opponent, the evil dragon Morphes, was a massive creature.
In front of him, the city walls seemed like mere "fences", and the defensive crossbows and turrets looked like toys next to Morphes.
Before long, the evil dragon Morphes had entered the attack range of the defensive turrets of Sky Dragon City.
"Attack!"
With the command given, the giant crossbows and turrets on the city walls launched their attacks against the evil dragon Morphes. Given Morphes's gigantic size, they didn't even need to aim.
However, what left everyone in despair was that, as they could see, Morphes's scales provided astonishingly high physical and magical defenses.
The crossbow bolts, which had high penetration power, hit Morphes as if they were mere toothpicks. The scales shimmered with a black glow, and the attacks from the players were instantly deflected.
"ROAR!!!"
Although the players' attacks did not deal any damage, for the evil dragon Morphes, the fact that these ants dared to attack him was the greatest provocation.
With a furious roar, Morphes lifted his head, opened his mouth, and unleashed a breath of fire towards the city walls of Sky Dragon City.
Dragon's Breath!
-500,000!
Morphes's mouth was several meters wide, and as he unleashed his breath, a horizontal area of over ten meters directly in front was engulfed. The portion of the sturdy city wall hit directly by the breath saw its health drop significantly, and the players caught in the attack, along with the nearby defensive machinery, were instantly reduced to ashes.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this scene, the players on the city walls were left wide-eyed.
The reinforced walls of Sky Dragon City had high defensive power; even players' awakened skills wouldn't do much against them, but Morphes's attack caused a massive drop of five hundred thousand health points. The sheer damage was outrageous; how could they even play at this point!?
Not to mention defense, the beefiest Guardian had health in the tens of thousands, and with such attack power, there was no way to match it. Moreover, this wasn't a single-target attack, but an area-of-effect skill with a wide coverage. How could they possibly deal with such a bug-like opponent?
"You weak insects!"
After unleashing his breath, the evil dragon Morphes didn't forget to taunt: "Is this all you've got? Bow before the great Lord Morphes; I will show you what true strength is…"
"Bang!!"
Before Morphes could finish his sentence, a figure suddenly descended from the sky, landing with lightning on Morphes's nose.
Thunder God's Stomp!
This person was Wang Yu.
Wang Yu, as a dragon slayer, had a high suppression attribute against dragon-type monsters, and Thunder God's Stomp had a powerful judgment effect. With this kick, Morphes's words were literally kicked back into his mouth.
"Whoa! Who is this god?!"
Seeing this familiar skill and terrifying figure, the players of Apocalypse were instantly dumbfounded.
Even Nine Solitary Spears, who had followed along on the city walls, was astonished.
Nine Solitary Spears was well aware of Wang Yu's strength, but this kick had nothing to do with one's level of power.
Everyone witnessed Morphes's previous dragon breath attack clearly; a monster as terrifying as him would instinctively frighten ordinary people into retreating, even if they had the same equipment and skills as Wang Yu. Yet, Wang Yu didn't think twice and boldly approached to kick the arrogant Morphes...
As the saying goes, the skilled are bold; this was a display of audacity and confidence.
"???"
Clearly, Morphes was also stunned by Wang Yu's kick. The beast had never expected anyone would dare to slap him; not even his father had done that...
"Draw him away!"
Just as Morphes and the players of Apocalypse were frozen in shock, Wang Yu received an order from Fearless.
Without any pause, Wang Yu charged forward from Morphes's nose, leaping onto Morphes's face, and then raised his fist, striking Morphes right in the eye.
Morphes's entire defense lay in his scales; even the city's defensive machinery couldn't pierce through them, but Morphes's eyes were unprotected.
"Duang!"
With a dull thud, Wang Yu's entire arm sank into Morphes's eye socket.
-221,454!
A massive damage number floated up from Morphes's head.
"ROAR!!"
After the punch landed, Morphes let out a horrific roar, instinctively slapping his paws down to his face.
"Farewell!"
Seeing this, Wang Yu retracted his fist, turned, and jumped off Morphes's head, using his Qing Gong skill to swiftly run towards Morphes's back.
It's one thing to provoke, but running away right after? That's not going to happen.
Morphes quickly turned around and chased after Wang Yu.
Nine Solitary Spears, being the sly one, thought that since Morphes had been drawn away, they should just wait it out. However, that fool thought there was an opportunity and immediately gave another attack order to Morphes.
The players of Apocalypse on the city walls unleashed their attacks onto Morphes's back.
