Chapter 2154 You Really Shouldnt Have Come Here

The three Flaming War Elephants loomed like mountains outside of Stone Forest City. Even the Undead Forests monsters trembled at the sight. Both players and monsters could feel the War Elephants auras from several hundred yards away, recognizing that these creatures were even stronger than ordinary Mythic monsters.

How did they get here so quickly? Yuan Tiexin watched Starlinks army from Stone Forest Citys walls in confusion.

Although Starlink had mobilized a massive army, it shouldve needed several more hours to reach Stone Forest Town, according to the Secret Pavilions information network.

While several hours might not be enough time for the Secret Pavilion to set up an impenetrable defense, it shouldve been enough time to get Stone Forest Citys defensive measures online. It also wouldve given the city time to recruit plenty of NPC soldiers.

With those defensive measures in place, capturing Stone Forest City wouldve been considerably difficult. The city couldve dragged the fight with Starlink out while it waited for more reinforcements.

Unfortunately, not only had Starlinks forces arrived a lot sooner than expected, but the Guild had also brought three Mythic monsters with it

All three Flaming War Elephants were covered in glowing divine runes. They had obviously been enhanced by some kind of power, and it was clear they werent ordinary summoned creatures.

However, the Flaming War Elephants werent the only problem right now.

Hundreds of magical class experts escorted the summoned monsters. These experts had gathered and pooled their Mana into several dozen, dazzling Energy Stones.

As these magical class experts filled the Energy Stones with their Mana, magic arrays began to manifest around the stones, devouring the ambient Mana from up to 1,000 yards away

To an ordinary Guild expert, it would only seem as if Starlink were preparing to cast a powerful Spell, perhaps a Tier 4 large-scale destruction Spell.

However, Yuan Tiexin was no ordinary expert, and he knew that wasnt a run-of-the-mill Tier 4 large-scale destruction Spell. Rather, it was the Tier 4 Curse ranked Ancient Spell, Elemental Destruction.

As far as he knew, Starlink regarded the Spell like a family heirloom!

The Guild could use the Energy Stones to collect its players Mana, feeding the Ancient Spell. The Energy Stones could be used indefinitely. When cast, Elemental Destructions power would depend on the number of Energy Stones used. The Ancient Spell required a minimum of 12 Energy Stones, and every additional 12 stones would qualitatively transform the Spell.

With 12 Energy Stones, Elemental Destruction would have the power of an ordinary Tier 4 Spell. If the casters used 24 Energy Stones, the Spell would display the power of a Tier 4 Curse. Of course, the stronger the Ancient Spell became, the more it would require of its casters, and the Cooldown would become longer.

The last time Starlink had used the Energy Stones, it had destroyed a heavily fortified town under the dark forces control. The Guild had only used 17 Energy Stones in that attack.

Now, however, Starlinks magical class experts concentrated their Mana into 29 Energy Stones. When they released the Spell, Elemental Destruction would undoubtedly have the power of a Tier 4 Curse. The Ancient Spells destructive power would only be slightly weaker than a Tier 5 Spell, more than enough to destroy a Basic Citys defensive magic array, which could only block ordinary Tier 4 attacks.

At this stage of the game, a citys most impressive defensive measure was its magic barrier, which players were still helpless against. Not even a full-days assault from an army of 100,000 players could shatter a citys defensive magic array. They wouldnt even put a dent in its energy reserves.

However, if the defensive magic array shattered, the citys remaining defenses would only be slightly stronger than a towns

Starlinks army had also used an Epic ranked Defensive Orb to protect its members. Although an Epic Defense Orbs magic barrier was no match for a citys defensive magic array, it could withstand a few Tier 4 attacks. Unless Stone Forest Citys defending forces could deplete the Defense Orbs Mana, they wouldnt be able to harm Starlinks players.

Meanwhile, as the Homed Dragon Team departed from the Undead Forest, it noticed the colossal magic array that hovered near the caverns ceiling. Despite standing several thousand yards away, the teams members could feel its domineering aura.

Amazing! So, this is Starlinks rumored Elemental Destruction Spell? Sheng Wuji watched the Mana fluctuations above grow stronger in shock. They must have originally prepared this to capture another Undead Fortress. It seems Starlink is really desperate to deal with Stone Forest City.

Sky Dragon House had some understanding of the Elemental Destruction Spell since it had obtained a few Energy Stones of its own. However, as the Guild hadnt yet reached the minimum requirement to use the Ancient Spell.

Although the Energy Stones could be used indefinitely, the stones Cooldown would be relative to the strength of the Spell they powered. If one used 12 Energy Stones to cast Elemental Destruction, the stones Cooldown would be 10 days long. By Sheng Wujis reasoning, using 29 Energy Stones to cast Elemental Destruction would result in a 20-day Cooldown at the very least.

As Gods Domain rapidly developed, a 20-day time span was incredibly precious. If Starlink had used its Energy Stones to capture another fortress in the Ancient Undead Country, rather than using them against Stone Forest City, it couldve earned astronomical profits from the fortress during that 20-day wait.

But since the superpower was in a hurry, Starlink had chosen to use the 29 Energy Stones to destroy Stone Forest Citys defensive magic array.

In reality, the Guild could have relied on the three Mythic ranked Flaming War Elephants to shatter Stone Forest Citys magic barrier in a short time. The only reason Starlink would use Elemental Destruction here, despite the exorbitant cost, was that it must want to end the battle as quickly as possible.

I suppose you didnt expect that wed meet again so soon, Guild Leader Black Flame, Bright Dawn said, looking down on Shi Feng, who stood on Stone Forest Citys wall, with a smug grin from atop a Flaming War Elephant. You gave me two choices earlier. Now, Ill do the same for you! Either get lost or die! Choose!

During their earlier encounter, he had been afraid of Shi Feng, but now, the tides had turned.

With three Level 85 Mythic monsters and a Tier 4 Curse ranked Elemental Destruction at his command, he could even defeat a group of monster-level experts, much less Shi Feng.

Boss, why are you wasting your words on him? Lets just force him to hand over his treasures and an extra piece of Epic Equipment! Otherwise, hell have no hope of leaving this place alive!

Thats right! How can we let him off the hook so easily after such a long trip?

Bright Dawns confidants expressed their opinions on the matter. They all wanted to tear Shi Feng to shreds to satisfy their resentment for the Swordsman.

Of course, the conditions theyd stated were a bluff. They were merely toying with Shi Feng. Even if he handed over his treasure and Epic Equipment, they couldnt afford to let him escape with his life. Their Guild Leader, Lu Xingluo, had personally ordered this mans death!

Yuan Tiexin and the others were livid when they heard the clamor Starlinks experts were making. Although they wanted to teach these fools a lesson, facing off against three Mythic monsters and several thousand experts with so few on their side wouldnt be wise. They could only buy as much time as possible or be forced to watch as Starlink destroyed Stone Forest City.

You barely survived our last meeting. You really shouldnt have come, Shi Feng calmly replied, giving Bright Dawn a condescending look.

Black Flame! Bright Dawn bellowed, his eyes glowing with a chilling light. Immediately, he commanded, Ready Elemental Destruction and destroy Stone Forest City! I want him to__

Before Bright Dawn could finish his statement, however, Shi Feng revealed the Tier 4 Magic Scroll he had obtained from the Lord of Fire, empowering it with an Elemental Source. He activated the scroll without hesitation.

Suddenly, a humongous magic array appeared above Starlinks force, gathering Mana far faster than Starlinks Elemental Destruction. The Mana fluctuations even destabilized space around it.

Before anyone could react, a streak of blue-purple lightning descended.

Boom!

The lightning bolt easily pierced through the magic barrier protecting Starlinks army and struck the players below. Every player within the lightning bolts range vaporized instantly. The attack also tore space as it passed.

After the lightning bolt dissipated, silence dominated the battlefield. The three Flaming War Elephants, who had been in range of the attack, were heavily injured, and despite standing apart from each other, the lightning bolt had eliminated more than 90% of Starlinks army.

For a moment, time seemed to freeze in the Undead Forest. Both the Homed Dragon Team members, who watched from a safe distance, and the players within Stone Forest City, were dazed.
