Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Assault on Green Moon, Lord Dine
[Announcement: Player Godslayer has destroyed the altar of Imperial City. The defense against the monster tide has failed.]
...
The announcement echoed three times.
Sending waves of discussion through the player community.
This was the second time John had destroyed the Mike White Family's attempt to establish Imperial City.
At the Green Moon resurrection point.
Toby stood frozen in disbelief before an uncontrollable fury surged through him. He roared, "Damn you, Godslayer! I'll never forgive you..."
Boom!
Toby's words were cut short as Dine struck him down with a single punch.
When Toby reappeared at the resurrection point, his face was pale. He looked at the furious Dine but hesitated to speak.
It was clear that Dine was genuinely enraged.
Dine stared coldly at Toby, barely suppressing his anger as he said, "You'd better pray I can recover the Elemental Key!"
"To the south gate!" Dine barked the order, immediately leading the city guards toward the south gate.
Godslayer had destroyed Imperial City, which meant he hadn't been killed by the elemental golems.
Dine couldn't fathom how John had managed it, considering that even he would be helpless against the elemental golems' magic confinement.
Unless Godslayer possessed rare elemental magic skills.
Leading his forces, Dine rushed to the entrance of the Elemental Secret Area at the south gate, intending to ambush John.
[Announcement: Player Godslayer has declared war on Green Moon. All players can join the defense. Successfully defending Green Moon will yield generous rewards.]
...
The announcement reverberated through the world once more.
"Again? Has Godslayer gone mad?"
"This seems to be the second time Godslayer has attacked a system city."
"But Green Moon is a Level 3 city. There's no way Godslayer can succeed."
"Forming a party to take down Godslayer-only accepting players level 60 and above, third- tier and higher. Join quickly."
...
The world chat was in an uproar, with most players believing that John stood no chance against a Level 3 city. Many were eager to join the fray, hoping to claim a legendary item by killing him.
If they managed to take down Godslayer even once, they could walk away with legendary equipment, catapulting their status to new heights.
Ritchie and the others, upon hearing the system announcement, initially wanted to rush to John's aid.
But they quickly reconsidered.
John had an army of beasts at his command. Their own strength was too weak, and rushing in would only get in the way.
At Green Moon's south gate.
Roar...
a chorus of roars filled the air as hundreds of powerful beasts appeared, all of them rare bosses of the fourth tier or higher.
Alongside them marched a formidable army of elves.
The sight made the players tremble with fear.
The overwhelming aura emanating from the beasts was far beyond what any current player could withstand.
Many players came to their senses and fled Green Moon immediately, hoping to avoid getting caught in the impending chaos.
When Dine arrived with his forces at the south gate and saw the scene before him, even his legs began to tremble.
"Toby, you bastard, how dare you deceive me!" Dine muttered under his breath.
Toby had assured him that Godslayer no longer had any beasts under his command, yet here were over two hundred powerful beasts that Dine had no means of countering. Standing atop the city wall, Dine suppressed his fear as he gazed at the Holy Dragon circling above. He shouted, "Godslayer, let's make a deal. Hand over the Elemental Key, and I'll overlook everything you've done so far. I can even lift the Dark Humans' bounty on you!"
The Elemental Key was too valuable to lose, and Dine felt he had no choice but to compromise.
At the same time, he was stalling, hoping reinforcements from other Dark Humans- controlled cities would arrive.
"Not interested. Attack!" John cut him off, giving the order to begin the assault.
Roar...
With a mighty dragon's roar, Judy shot into the sky, her massive tail sweeping across the air. The imposing city wall crumbled like a pile of rubble under her power, collapsing instantly.
Countless debris flew through the air, much of it hurtling toward John.
Avis quickly maneuvered to dodge, then asked in confusion, "Master, did you offend her somehow? That female dragon looks like she wants to swallow you whole."
John chuckled awkwardly. He and the Black Turtle had schemed against Judy and Ada.
Although Ada had eventually submitted to him, Judy clearly still harbored some resentment.
"Leave this to you all. Don't let a single Dark Human escape," John instructed before directing Avis to dive straight into Green Moon.
His target was the teleportation point.
John was still wary of the power of the Dark Humans and knew he couldn't allow reinforcements from higher-level cities to arrive.
Whoosh!
John swung his longsword, slicing through the air and sending a powerful slash toward the teleportation point.
Boom!
With a deafening crash, the teleportation point was obliterated, and the surrounding players were caught in the explosion, instantly killed.
"Master, should I go after the players here?" Avis asked eagerly, eyeing the crowd of gathered
players.
John nodded in agreement.
Most of the players in Green Moon were elites from the Mike White Family, with the rest
being opportunists looking to profit from the chaos.
These people deserved their fate.
Dragonfire Breath unleashed a storm of flames across the sky.
John and Avis worked together, mercilessly slaughtering the players in the city.
Toby was the first to react, immediately logging out of the game.
The other members of the Mike White Family, having been ruthlessly slaughtered by John before, were smarter this time. Seeing Toby disappear, they quickly followed suit and logged
off.
But the players who had come to Green Moon hoping to loot the spoils were not so lucky.
They soon understood what true despair was.
Avis's massive form prowled the sky, relentlessly hunting down and killing the Dark Humans
soldiers and players below.
Meanwhile, John stood guard at the resurrection point, his Sword of Divinity and Demons flashing as he alternated between countless magical skills.
"Godslayer, you're a monster! You won't have a good end!"
"Demon, this guy is a demon! The world of Gods should never have allowed a player like him
in."
"Please, sir, I'm innocent. Let me go, I beg you!"
The area around the resurrection point had become a sea of flames, filled with the endless sounds of curses, screams, and pleas for mercy from the players.
It was a brutal cycle: respawn, instant death, and then respawn again, only to be killed once
more.
As soon as they stepped out of the resurrection point, they were forced into combat mode, unable to log out or escape.
The repeated experience of dying over and over again was tormenting them, wearing down
their mental fortitude.
Many players' levels had dropped below level 10, sending them back to the newbie village. "Quick, attack the resurrection point!" someone shouted in desperation.
If the resurrection point was destroyed, they would respawn at the nearest city, finally escaping Godslayer's wrath.
The players quickly realized this was their only chance. Forgetting their curses, they all focused their attacks on the resurrection point.
Although their damage was minimal, their sheer numbers made a difference, and soon, the resurrection point was destroyed.
A collective sigh of relief swept through the players as they resigned themselves to John's onslaught, awaiting the inevitable death that would free them.
"They got off easy!" John remarked as he watched the now-empty resurrection point, a trace
of disappointment in his voice.
He felt no guilt. These players had come here with the intent to kill him. After regrouping with Avis, John saw that the city's soldiers had been completely wiped out.
He then proceeded to destroy the Green Moon altar, earning a Level 3 Altar Upgrade Stone in the process. With the altar destroyed, the once-bustling Green Moon was reduced to ruins.
At the city walls, Dine, who had been struggling to hold his ground, witnessed the scene unfold before him. His eyes widened in fury, veins bulging as he took in the devastation.
Years of hard work and dedication, everything he had built, had been reduced to ruins in an
instant.
"Godslayer, you've made an enemy of the Dark Humans-you'll never have a good end!" he shouted, his voice filled with rage, though his heart was already considering retreat.
But with the Elemental Key lost, Dine knew he would still face severe consequences if the
higher-ups found out.
He was trapped between a rock and a hard place.
Just then, John and Avis arrived.
"Avis, leave this one to me," John said, leaping from Avis's back and landing smoothly in
front of Dine.
Dine instinctively took a step back, swallowing nervously. Despite the seemingly insignificant human before him, a wave of fear washed over him.
He gritted his teeth and tried to bargain. "Godslayer, you have no idea how terrifying the Dark Humans are. Hand over the Elemental Key, and I'll let you walk away."
John couldn't help but laugh, scoffing at the offer. "Are you joking? Right now, I'm the one in
control, and you're the one at my mercy. I don't fear the Dark Humans, not even if the gods themselves come down!"
With that, he lunged at Dine, ready to strike.
"Stubborn fool!" Dine's face twisted in anger as he drew a flexible sword from his waist. He
couldn't believe that, as a fifth-tier rare boss, he would struggle against a mere human
adventurer.
Clang!
After just one clash, Dine's expression shifted. Pain shot through his hand, and he almost lost
his grip on the longsword.
The physical strength of this adventurer was unexpectedly on par with his own.
"You're no match for me," a cold voice echoed as John's figure vanished, and multiple cold
flashes enveloped Dine.
It was the Assassin skill, Void Dance.
John's use of the Sword of Divinity and Demons to perform Assassin skills didn't hinder him in
the slightest.
Slash! Slash!
Blood splattered as damage numbers floated above Dine's head.
-7960
-8011
-8114
...
All critical hits.
Dine lost over 80,000 health points in an instant.
John was slightly surprised.
This guy was stronger than an ordinary fifth-tier rare boss, likely in the mid to late fifth tier,
with a health pool exceeding a million.
Even so, John's single skill attack had nearly cost him a tenth of his health.
Dine staggered back, terror in his eyes as he stared at John. "Human, what kind of talent do
you possess?"
A 100% physical critical hit rate-he had never heard of such a terrifying talent.
If this adventurer were allowed to grow, he would undoubtedly become a formidable enemy
to the Dark Humans.
John didn't bother responding.
With a Death Rush, he closed the distance to Dine again, alternating between Assassin skills.
More damage numbers flashed.
Each of John's skill attacks dealt over 80,000 points of damage.
Dine was in despair. He could sense that he should be able to kill this adventurer, but every
time he attempted to attack, John interrupted him.
It was as if his every move was anticipated and countered by John.
Facing John, he felt a deep sense of frustration.
If John had been overwhelmingly strong and had simply overpowered him, he could have
accepted it.
But the fact that John seemed so small and weak, yet Dine couldn't land a single hit, was infuriating.
Soon, his health dropped below 100,000-he couldn't withstand more than two of John's skill
attacks.
"Adventurer, I am a disciple of the Eighth-Tier Lord of Green Willow City. If you kill me, he
will never let you go," Dine pleaded, now genuinely frightened, resorting to threats by
invoking the power behind him.
Green Willow?
John's cold smile deepened, and the killing intent in his eyes intensified.
He knew this name. In his past life, it was this very Green Willow who had slaughtered the
Blues Family's entire household.
But at that time, Green Willow had already become a ninth-tier powerhouse, almost
invincible.
