Chapter 469: Chapter 469: Collision
All the players were astonished, nobody had anticipated that Li Yao would take action so straightforwardly and instantly. Attacking while being at a disadvantage, he was audaciously bold.
Moreover, when they saw the thieves lying in ambush at the big trees and valleys nearby Starfire, a chill ran down their spines.
It was as if Starfire had known all along that battle was inevitable and had already arranged for reinforcements.
Only when the scrolls touched the ground did Romeo of the Devil Alliance come to his senses.
He yelled loudly, “Everyone focus on defense, healers add more blood.”
The battle erupted too quickly, Romeo didn’t believe that Li Yao would attack instantly upon a disagreement, catching them completely off guard.
However, their assumptions were wrong; the scrolls that the thieves threw weren’t damage scrolls.
With the scrolls falling down, a massive fog started to spread, instantly enveloping the battlefield.
Li Yao’s attack was not only directed at the assassin group but also at all the team members behind him.
Following Li Yao’s orders, the players lined at the forefront also threw scrolls, and simultaneously, fog scrolls.
As the fog began to spread rapidly, Li Yao said in the guild war channel, “All the magic users assigned with the Hydra Scroll, the first hundred, throw.”
Wham, over a hundred Hydra Scrolls were tossed out, instantly turning into giant fireballs in their paths.
Boom boom boom…
A hundred Devil Alliance players at the front line were immediately hit. After hitting the players, the flame seeds did not disappear but directly fell to the ground and turned into burning fire Hydras.
Suddenly a sea of fire was formed, covering a large swath of the Devil Alliance players.
Due to the fog, let alone the audience, even the players of the Devil Alliance who were slightly behind didn’t know what had happened.
The players at the very front were engulfed by the fire wall, their health point dropping rapidly.
“Don’t panic, it’s just a series of magic scrolls, they probably don’t have many more. Healers, focus on healing, tanks, keep your formation, ranged units prepare to cast area attack spells, aim at the front and launch a spell strike,” Romeo could do nothing but instruct. As a result of the fog, they can’t see anything more than 15 yards away.
However, top-tier players of the Devil Alliance are plenteous; although they were initially at a disadvantage, their formation remained unbroken by the flame Hydras.
Of course, Li Yao did not expect the Flame Hydra to disrupt the enemy’s formation either, he intended only to temporarily halt their advance.
At this moment, the audience was the most anxious, the large area in front of the instance was covered and they could not see the warfare situation at all. They could only see the twinkling fire light in the fog and hear the sound of magic explosions.
As Li Yao gave orders, he had already fired several Sonic Arrows and called back the Hydra. After the fog shrouded the area, he directly summoned the Spider Tank, followed by the Fire Hawk, then Death God 4000.
“Order, Spider Tank, Fruit Knight, Guardian Angel will lead. The elders will follow, everyone else behind them. Maintain the current cone-shaped formation and charge with me,” Li Yao commanded.
Li Yao also pulled the trigger of the giant crossbow already loaded with the Steel Arrow…
Thud…
The members of the Starfire guild charged like an arrow released from the bowstring.
With the charge, Starfire’s players entered the Devil Alliance’s range of firepower. However, area damage spells could not kill players outright.
“Entering the area of spell coverage, all ranged units begin your attack,” Li Yao gave another command.
To maintain the neatness of the formation, Li Yao didn’t order the warriors to charge forward.
The Steel Arrow, piercing through the air with a sharp whistling, pierced through five to six players. These players were instantly killed.
The players from the Devil Alliance were of extremely high standard, promptly filling the gap.
Romeo had a sullen look on his face, fighting without any visibility was too disadvantageous for them.
After all, they had many more players than Starfire. If the field was wide open, he could mobilize them to surround the enemy.
But now, both sides had entered the so-called blind battle. In order to guard the instance entrance, they could only continue to evenly distribute their forces. Under no circumstances, they dared to concentrate their forces or implement a surrounding strategy.
This was not an exaggeration. He had learnt about Li Yao through other channels and knew about the Sonic Arrow. Under those circumstances, they would be blind even with their eyes open, while Li Yao could understand the situation on the battlefield via the Sonic Arrow.
Chaotic mobilization would only expose their weaknesses. Hence, they still maintained their original formation and blocked the instance entrance. He believed that in this head-on confrontation, the Starfire Guild was no match for the Devil Alliance.
However, as the Spider Tank approached, the players who saw the Spider Tank couldn’t help but cry out in surprise.
“What the hell is this thing?”
This was the thought of everyone who saw the Spider Tank; it was simply too immense and formidable.
With the passing of time, the current Spider Tank had undergone minor changes.
Apart from its blinking rune lights, it also seemed to emit black gas and had countless black tentacle-like spikes as if linking metals spreading outside the metallic shell.
Its six compound eyes were glowing with a sinister light. A huge cannon barrel was on its back with two smaller side guns next to it. The black holes were full of deterrence.
Li Yao didn’t let it unleash its full firepower instantly, he preferred to take opponents by surprise after they saw it.
Along with exposure of the Spider Tank, the main gun of the Spider Tank fired, and simultaneously, the Fire Hawk, which had been exposed to people’s sight for a long time, also dived down to launch an attack.
Death God 4000, who was stationed in front of Li Yao, also opened fire at the same time. The Rocket Cannon whistled towards the Devil Alliance’s formation.
The audience at the scene and those watching the broadcast, many who had seen the Fire Hawk before, noticed the differences. It was much larger than before, its flames more dreamy and it seemed even more noble.
“Prairie Fire’s pet seems to have evolved again; it turns out he had been holding back his strength. It’s a pity that we can’t witness such an exciting battle due to the fog,” Ozawa sighed.
Those unfamiliar with the situation also expressed their regret and disappointment. This thrilling battle, unfortunately, was enshrouded in fog.
What they didn’t know was that, under the combined attack of Li Yao’s three pets, the front area of the Devil Alliance already lay strewn with countless corpses.
Li Yao’s pets were too powerful. They were at the intermediate boss level, and their attacks were extremely high. In such a densely populated area, combined with the Starfire Guild’s spell assault, the Devil Alliance’s formation was instantly torn open.
“The enemy’s line has been breached, charge with all your might and break their front line.”
The Starfire Guild’s players were immediately invigorated and cheered loudly.
Meanwhile, the Fire Hawk, having completed one round of firepower, was also called back by Li Yao…
