Zhan Long

Chapter 1362: Heaven Region Troops

An hour later, the light faction hybrid demon army crossed the cold mountain ridge and entered Bone Refining Basin. Pearl led the army and rode a white war horse. Behind her were a bunch of five star god bosses and they looked at us fiercely. Although these hybrid demons were working with humans but one side was living and one side was undead so this animosity was obvious. Only Pearl managed to suppress the pressure. This was what I was most worried about. If one day Pearl didn’t care, they will turn into our enemies again.

Pearl’s army was strong now but in the future, that is how strong our enemies would be!

……

“I see the hell crack!”

A hybrid demon general rode his wolf forwards and his eyes showed energy. Although one of it was blind and there was a black cloth covering it.

“Not right.” Another general gritted his teeth, “The darkness crystal supporting the crack is destroyed, what is going on? If that is the case then the crack won’t hold on for long!”

Pearl was stunned and her eyes were filled with shock, “How… How did this happen?”

Han Yuan said respectfully, “Your Highness Pearl, Sif wanted to destroy it before she left but we stopped her if not the crack would be gone.”

“Li Xiao Yao is that true?” Pearl questioned me.

I coughed and didn’t say anything.

Pearl pouted, “You come with me!”

She headed towards the pillar formed by the tunnel and I chased her in god form. Very quickly, we both stood in mid air. Pearl squinted her eyes and looked at the crack. Energy surged and there was a loud explosion. A red arm drilled out from the magma and it was a red stone giant, level 9 hybrid demon. He roared and climbed out. He lowered his head towards Pearl and said solemnly, “My master, what instructions do you have?”

Pearl didn’t say anything. She waved and this stone giant walked towards where the other hybrid demons were at, like an army gathering.

“Do you see that?” Pearl asked.

“I see.”

“What do you see?”

“An army that can destroy the entire human race under this crack. They need time and if they have it, they can destroy the world.”

“Oh…” She said, “Thank you for destroying 7 of the 10, thanks for helping me choose the path I have to take.”

I shook, “Your Highness…”

She saw through my thoughts, “I know, Lochlan and you are defending against me. I was a hybrid demon lord and in your eyes, I am an evil soul. But Xiao Yao, can’t you see that I am human, I am Emperor Locke’s daughter. How will I wipe out the humans?”

“Then why do you thank me?”

“For your loyalty to the empire. This place belongs to my family and war split it up. Now that it is united, the world has peace. But… I am Emperor Locke’s daughter and I thought about wanting my past. But it is all gone, I will play my role in the north.”

“Thank you Pearl.” I lowered my head.

“Don’t thank me.” She held my arms and smiled, “Lochlan is my uncle’s son and is my cousin. You let my family rule the world so I need to thank you. Moreover, you don’t have to be so respectful to me. I am his majesty’s cousin but you are the king, we have the same rank.”

I looked towards the north, “Sif is gone.”

“Yes, you let her go!” She teased me, “You are worried I am too free so you left a strong enemy for me right?”

“Ahah, this… Make me sound evil?”

“Scoff, you know yourself.”

She looked towards the north and said, “ I heard that Sif sent Qin Ge to the north to search for a god weapon that can summon the warriors to fight for her. I think Sif has a plan if not she wouldn’t give up the hell crack so easily.”

“Right, I didn’t see Qin Ge, so that was what she went to do.” I touched my head and was speechless.

Pearl laughed, “You are looking less and less like a general. You actually didn’t have the intel, seems like the human strength is limited.”

“Right.” I nodded, “Past the Ice Spine Mountain is not our territory, I can only spread our strength there. No matter what happens in the north, it depends on you to defend.”

She looked at me and then sighed, “I hope that you are always here, the world needs someone like you.”

“Why so?” I was surprised.

She smiled, “We are the same, we hope that the world is not too peaceful and we hope for there to be war. Then people won’t get corrupted by power and desire and we can fight for the weak of the world.”

I thought back to what I said when I made Zhan Long, it was to fight for the weak right? After a year, we did follow those words and we fought against strong enemies to pull them down. We could answer to our hearts and we didn’t let anyone down.

“The crack will close in a week.” I laughed, “I hope Sif won’t lead a huge army over. Summon new troops if not I worry you aren’t her match. For this battle, Royal Army and Heaven Barrier Army suffered huge losses, we don’t have much more strength to help you.”

“En, then go get busy!”

“Okay!”

……

I flew and glanced back and noticed the Pearl stood there and sent god power into the crack. Along with a giant roar, many hybrid demons that we hadn’t seen before flew out. They were all elites, all level 9 hybrid demons, there wasn’t anything lower than that.

Royal Army, Heaven Barrier Army, Dragon City troops backed out. There were injured troop camps and the healing process would take at least 10 hours.

There were still small battles in the distance. The Indian players mostly gave up but many still game to disturb and hope to win things for Sif. Clear Black Eyes sent 70 million over and initially, they had an advantage but when Tian Ling City noticed that their brothers were being bullied, they pushed in. Over 30 million people entered this map. Our level, equipment and skills had an advantage and we defeated them there.

Clear Black Eyes definitely wouldn’t be able to attack for a short time. After learning Sif lost, all the more she wouldn’t as there was no point. She wasn’t someone to do things for nothing.

Li Mu rode the giant dragon down and blood stained the blade. He smiled, “The Indians lost again. Clear Black Eyes and Drunk Maple are so resilient, they still aren’t willing to give up, I respect them!”

Li Mu flew over in god form and stood on Mei’er’s wings, “They have tens of millions of players. Only the two of them can lead Seven Shine City.”

“En, that is true.”

I looked towards Seven Shine City and sucked in a deep breath, “Only Seven Shine City could battle with us for so long. We will be their problem in the next country war. Everyone get ready, we don’t want to get torn up a month after we just unified the world.”

Wang Jian laughed, “Brother Xiao Yao, that would be tough. The new patch is for the other servers. They built many small cities and they are all secondary cities that can accept players from those that lost their primary cities to give them a chance to level and replenish equipment. The game direction is obvious, they want us to fight. The gold we spend will end up in their pockets.”

“No worries.” I smiled, “China Destiny takes up 47% of the shares, china is earning money. Our virtual wars are for china. Maybe if we kill more enemies, we are helping to earn more nails for the spaceships!”

“Haha, right right right!”

“Prepare to retreat, everyone is tired. Rest early!’

“En!”
