As Xie Feng charged into the center of the army and unleashed all his close combat attacks, Xie Yao who was paying attention to the battle realized that although the number of deaths increased, it was still not enough.
"Why isn't big brother Xie Feng using that lightning spell to attack multiple players?" Xie Yao frowned slightly trying to find an answer. However, her words were heard by Mu Wuying.
"Eh? Xie Feng also has a spell with area damage?" Mu Wuying asked in a low voice.
Xie Yao, remembering the place she was in and knowing that there are many players around, lowered her voice enough that no one else would hear her and nodded, "He has it. A magic spell with a ten-meter range... But he hasn't used it yet."
A look of surprise shone in Mu Wuying's beautiful blue eyes. After thinking for a moment, a bright smile appeared on her face: "Hehehe, that little man is really evil."
"Eh?" Xie Yao looked at her in confusion.
"Imagine that somehow you think you have found a way to defeat an enemy that brought you to the brink of despair and you quickly implement that method. However, that enemy was only playing with you and when you thought it was all over, you received a fatal hit again." Mu Wuying smiled as if she was proud of something and as she tucked her hair behind her ear, with a voice that only she could hear, she murmured: "Without a doubt, it would be a great shock to the morale of the enemy and a great mental break to the commander of the army... You really are an evil genius, Feng..."

Many people were surprised by the sudden change in the pattern of Xie Feng's attacks. He went from simply stabbing with his spear to doing 360 degree turns, 180 degree turns, swinging his spear at different angles... It was as if the number of types of attacks he could execute with his weapon were endless. However, even before they could react, a crimson flash would shine in front of their eyes for a split second before they were instantly killed by the Calamity Spear.
Being surrounded by enemies like this and in a battle with this intensity of attack, attacks from all sides blocked all escape routes. So, Xie Feng had no plan to dodge in big; he simply blocked the attacks that could damage him, ignored the attack of the shield guardians who could not break his defense, and launched his attacks without hesitation. He used his attack as a defense, eliminating the enemies before they could attack him.
As the arrows continued to fall, more and more players from the coalition of both guilds were hit and killed. But the effort of the archers, as well as the sacrifice of these players, paid off; Xie Feng's HP had finally fallen by more than half!
"Ling Long, come out! It's time to play a little!" Xie Feng's lips curved slightly upward. As his words ended, a flash of white light shot out of his body and soon a small beast the size of a cat appeared in front of the eyes of every player nearby.
The nearby players unconsciously stopped their movements for a second as it was the first time they had seen a pet.
Ling Long tilted her head slightly to the side and a small sound escaped from her mouth: "Puuh?"
A female warrior unconsciously murmured, "What a cute little thing."
Like a magnet, the words of the female warrior attracted Ling Long's attention. With a friendly smile, Ling Long burst out at a speed exceeding that of Xie Feng and in less than a second appeared in front of the warrior!
Ling Long jumped into the air and raised her right hand. Four sharp claws could be seen shining slightly in the sun's rays; it was the last thing the female warrior could see.
-350, -350, -349, -346!
In just a second, the female player's health bar was completely drained!
In just one second, Ling Long, who was still a level 0 pet, caused almost 1500 points of physical damage! Not to mention the rest of the players who looked stunned as the female warrior fell to the ground, even Xie Feng's mouth was wide open!
If Ling Long was his enemy and used her movement skill, Xie Feng could only win by activating Green Flame or he could not react before Ling Long beat him to death!

In the back of the army of both guilds.
"Young master... I have just received a report and the number of players killed by Shiva is now over 2000..." Definitive Arrow, the unique archer in the ranking of levels and 9th in the list, informed Yao Zenyu.
When he heard the report from his right-hand man, Yao Zenyu's face was cold and his eyes were as sharp as a pair of knives; no one knew what he was thinking.
Since the war started, more than ten minutes had passed. The battle that Yao Zenyu believed would end easily and without too many problems became more and more complicated. Until now, the number of dead players from the God of Heaven and Sacred Wings guilds was over 2000. This meant that more than 2000 pieces of equipment were lying on the ground and more than 2000 players had lost a level! It was simply a terrifying loss since Samsara Online had not yet been open for a month!
The amount of money to recover each piece of equipment, as well as the amount of time each player would have to invest to recover from the loss, would be too great!
"His HP has already dropped beyond half... Even if we lose 2000 players more, Shiva's death is written in stone! Continue to overwhelm him with arrows and spells... I want him dead!" Yao Zenyu had a fierce sparkle in his eyes and growled in a low voice.
"Young master, young master!" A warrior who was running at full speed began to cry out from a distance.
Seeing the sweaty face and pale face of the warrior as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, Yao Zenyu suddenly felt a bad premonition. With furrowed eyebrows, he used the calmest voice he could to ask, "What is it now?"
"Young master, it's not good! We can't fight against them, we definitely can't win!" The warrior began to shake his head and his incoherent words made Yao Zenyu and Definitive Arrow look confused.
Definitive Arrow frowned and asked: "What do you mean by 'them'? Has Shiva doubled himself?"
The warrior had his eyes wide open and shook his head again and again. "No no no! After trying so hard to clear more than half of Shiva's health bar, a white light enveloped his body for a moment... The next second, he had his health bar completely full once again!"
"WHAT!?" Yao Zenyu shouted in incredulity. How could he accept it? After so much effort and sacrifice, Shiva was finally at the end of the road but now it turns out that it was all a fleeting dream!
However, the warrior did not seem to care about Yao Zenyu's concern as he immediately shouted: "The shield guardians cannot hurt him, the warriors are being sent to death, being used as cannon fodder ... He ... It is as if he has a predictive ability and almost none of the archers' attacks can hit him. Even the damage from the dispersed shots that had hit him was completely healed by that white light! The scariest thing is that Shiva's movement and judgment skills are too scary and mages can't attack him at all. Those mages can't touch him at all, since they finish half of their spells and he abandons the attack range... But that dragon is even more terrifying!"
When they heard the word 'dragon' Yao Zenyu, Definitive Arrow, as well as Nangong Lei who was silently standing aside thinking of a plan, they looked up to the sky in fear... But there was no dragon there.
Nangong Lei stepped forward and slapped the warrior's face fiercely while cursing: "You are stupid! Everyone knows that dragons are arrogant and proud rulers. Why on earth would a dragon help a player!?"
The warrior continued shaking his head. He didn't care about Nangong Lei's slap and continued to report what he saw: "That little cat-sized dragon looked harmless with that big smile on its face but... But!... That little black dragon is even more terrifying than the trial in the Beginner's Village! That little beast causes more than 1300 points of damage per second with only one attack per hand! Plus, every time we try to catch the dragon, that little thing flutters quickly and disappears!... We really can't win!"
Yao Zenyu and Nangong Lei looked at each other at the same time and saw the same extremely ugly expression on each other's faces, their faces had become dark as coal.
After both were killed, both knew that they could not let the situation pass so easily or it would be a great loss of face and honor not only for them, but also for their families. They believed that with several thousand people attacking at the same time, a few attacks would be enough to kill even ten Shivas. Although it was degrading, both had no choice since they wanted to end this whole charade as quickly as possible.
Precisely because they both wanted to end this ridiculous war in which a single player was facing an army of 10,000, they both ignored the losses on their side. Yao Zenyu had ordered the archers and the mages to attack indiscriminately in wide areas in order to kill Shiva quickly; as a consequence, hundreds of players were killed by their own allies. Still, both believed it would be worth it and that ten seconds would be enough to finish, but now more than ten minutes had passed and Shiva continued to rampage across the battlefield killing players casually as if he were taking a walk in his backyard!
