The siege is over, lots of treasure chests as rewards! (6200)
Realizing that the hundred-thousand-strong monster army was attacking in two waves, front and rear, Cao Xing flapped his Wind Wings, quickly flying him hundreds of meters high into the air.
At a glance, he saw the scene of two astonishingly large waves of the resurrected army charging towards the territory simultaneously!
Furthermore, aside from arrow towers, there were no defensive units whatsoever in the area at the rear of the territory.
That region was also the territory's agricultural zone, where those cloud yaks and Light Feather Chickens lived.
If the resurrected army in the rear breached the city walls and barged into the territory, Cao Xing would suffer heavy losses!
Seeing this, Cao Xing quickly ordered: "Now, all warriors, split into two waves!"
"Ascalon Warriors coordinate with Earth-type Mages to garrison the front of the territory."
"Dragon Blood Warriors, Star Country Swordsmen, and Wind-type Mages, go deal with the enemies at the rear of the territory."
"Silver Hand Knights, lead all griffins and prepare to support both battlefields at any time."
"Hurry!"
The resurrected army was already about to approach within one kilometer of the territory; they had to be intercepted beneath the city walls!
The moment they heard the order, the over one thousand people on the field all wore solemn expressions and then began to act.
"Boom! Rumble!"
Commander Bo Jie erupted with incomparably powerful strength at this moment, leaving a large crater in place with every step he took.
He was rushing toward the rear of the territory at almost the fastest speed!
Behind him, the other Dragon Blood Warriors and Star Country Swordsmen were also charging at top speed.
Of course, the fastest ones were still the witch Francesca and the assassin Sarah!
One of the two women was in the air and the other on the ground; their instantly erupted speed exceeded 800 meters per second!
Like two bolts of lightning.
Within a dozen seconds, they rushed in front of the resurrected army at the rear of the territory and carried out a frontal interception!
"Swish!"
The witch extended her delicate hands, and a formidable spiritual aura surged within her hands!
Then she slammed them straight down in place!
"Boom~! Boom~!"
It was as if one massive shockwave after another emerged amidst the crowd of monsters.
A large number of the resurrected army were blasted flying on the spot, with damage numbers of fifty to sixty thousand appearing above their heads, and their health points plunging drastically.
Meanwhile, Sarah charged straight into the resurrected army at that moment.
Like a grim reaper harvesting lives on the battlefield, a single slash of her blade kicked up terrifying damage numbers!
Furthermore, she directly threw out various AoE skills.
Slaughter Dance!
Shattered Shadows!
"! Click!"
Eight avatars swept across the monster crowd, detonating the aura of shadows like bombs!
A large number of the resurrected army were beaten down to near-death status.
Then, Sarah executed the harvest with a few sword strikes.
[Ding! Successfully used a basic attack to execute five enemies, Assassination Dominator Domain takes effect, skill cooldown has been reset!]
Instantly, Sarah followed up with Slaughter Dance and Shattered Shadows once more.
Patch after patch of the resurrected army was slaughtered by her on the spot!
After transforming into a Dominator, this woman was truly formidable in every aspect!
She was simply a killing machine on the battlefield.
Relying on the witch and Sarah, they actually managed to briefly stall the resurrected army for a moment!
Taking advantage of this time, the Dragon Blood Warrior legion and the Star Country Swordsmen had already arrived.
They charged directly into the resurrected monsters.
"——…"
These resurrected monsters let out low roars once again, and these warriors clashed in battle together.
Meanwhile.
The Ascalon Warriors on the other side also intercepted the enemy.
Battles unfolded on both battlefields simultaneously.
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's finally blocked; fortunately, no unexpected accidents happened."
"Now, as long as we persist, we can successfully pass the seventh wave challenge!"
At this moment.
Due to the division of troops fighting on two battlefields simultaneously,
there was no longer the overwhelming, destructive combat like during the previous sixth wave challenge.
The Dragon Blood Warriors and Star Country Swordsmen coordinated to shred a large number of resurrected monsters in the front.
However, more ranged resurrected armies in the rear opened their pitch-black jaws and spat out mucus carrying a foul stench.
"Swish!"
Just like a sewer exploding, tens of thousands of foul-smelling mucus sprayed toward them; just looking at that scene felt somewhat disgusting.
It even caused these Dragon Blood Warriors to subconsciously dodge,
and taking this opportunity, the resurrected army in the rear swarmed forward, almost scattering the formation of these Dragon Blood Warriors.
However, as the griffin knight army descended from the sky!
They charged directly into the hinterland of the resurrected army, targeting precisely those resurrected warlocks spitting black liquid.
Their sharp spears carried boundless might, piercing through their already frozen flesh.
"Puff! Puff!"
A large number of resurrected warlocks were tossed into the air on the spot, grabbed by the griffins' sharp talons, and then directly thrown down.
They smashed fiercely onto the heads of other resurrected soldiers,
Yet despite suffering so many attacks, these monsters still weren't dead; they quickly climbed up from the ground, wanting to continue their attack.
Their formidable vitality was evident.
However, a large number of destroyer ballistae and Elemental Arrow Towers on the city walls launched attacks one after another.
"Swoosh! Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"
The sound of breaking through the air came continuously!
The bodies of these resurrected soldiers were pierced right through.
The situation on both sides had more or less stabilized.
Seeing this, Cao Xing's solemn expression relaxed slightly.
"During this period of time, the status buffs on those Retaliator Robots have also been added almost completely."
"Next, let them make their appearance as well and join the battle!"
As Cao Xing waved his hand grandly.
"Rumble—"
The city gate at the rear of the territory opened, and hundreds of robot legions rushed out from inside!
Through these six days of manufacturing, the number of these Tier 6 robots had already reached as many as 270.
Combined with that full body of buffs, it was quite an astonishing force!
These robots were divided into two types.
Among them, the Predator Robot had a metal hook claw on its left hand and a muzzle-like device on its right hand, with the entire body exhibiting a gray metallic luster, looking full of deterrent force!
On the other hand, the Retaliator Robot had a small chainsaw on its left hand and a light machine gun on its right hand.
It could be said that both types of robots possessed melee + ranged capabilities.
At this moment, they moved their steel paces, advancing forward at an extremely fast speed, and quickly arrived amidst the main army.
"Rat-a-tat-tat!"
A large number of [Retaliator Robots] raised the machine guns on their right hands and fired frantically forward.
Causing a massive amount of three to four thousand damage!
Meanwhile, the energy cannon damage dealt by the [Predator Robots] on the other side was much higher.
They raised their right hands high, and the energy cores on their chests emitted a deep blue glow.
Then, a massive energy shell poured out toward the front!
"Rumble!!!"
[-26,246!]
[-16,367]
[-27,253!]
[-16,962]
Explosion damages of over ten thousand appeared one after another.
Seeing this scene, Cao Xing couldn't help praising: "You truly get what you pay for."
"Although the manufacturing cost of a single Elite-grade Predator Robot is much higher, its damage is also far stronger than that of ordinary-grade Retaliator Robots."
Those resurrected armies also locked their eyes onto this group of robot armies.
A massive flood of monsters surged over, surrounding these robots tightly.
And when the resurrected soldiers arrived before them,
this group of robots abandoned ranged combat and directly activated the hook claws and chainsaws in their hands.
"Bzzzz!"
The energy core on their chest emitted intense fluctuations once again.
One of the Predator Robots had its hook claw eject and shoot out, directly snaring the head of a resurrected soldier.
Then it violently hauled him over.
Grabbing him by the hand, it instantly refined him!
Boom!
An energy cannon blast right to the face, and then the battle ended.
With the addition of the robot army, the pressure on the combatants was relieved once again.
Afterwards, those core combatants also rushed in one after another to begin frantic slaughter!
Qiao De Ironfrost, who had broken through to the Master rank, blasted away a large swath with a single punch, even blowing up a portion of the resurrected soldiers on the spot; the scene was quite bloody!
On the other side, the Dragon Shaman, cooperating with the Black Smoke Shaman and the Wind-type Mage Allen, jointly unleashed a large-scale lightning storm!
"Swish swish!"
Wherever the massive tornado storm passed, a large number of resurrected soldiers were sucked into it.
Everyone only saw that within that storm cluster, monster after monster fell into a vortex, being spun around until they were dizzy and disoriented.
Moreover, they also had to suffer triple damage from lightning, black smoke, and wind.
"Crackling!"
As one powerful skill after another was displayed,
the total of one hundred thousand resurrected soldiers from both sides were forcibly blocked by Cao Xing's side outside the territory, within a range of one kilometer!
On the city walls, those staff members watched the surrounding battle conditions with excited expressions.
Those new members had long since been stunned by this scale of combat!
Of course, there were also many Arctic People working hard to load boulders and arrows.
"Boom! Rumble!"
The catapults raised their cantilevers high, and boulder after boulder fell into the monster crowd, smashing them into a pool of black mud.
As a large number of monsters were killed, everyone's levels soared rapidly once again.
[Your subordinate lord: Liu Muxue's level has increased. Current level: Level 66]
[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance's level has increased. Current level: Level 65]
[Your…]
Even Cao Xing's own experience bar began to rise rapidly.
In less than ten minutes, it surged by another level, reaching Level 65.
A trace of a smile appeared on Cao Xing's face once again.
"Very good!"
"As long as one has the strength, this monster siege is simply a welfare event for farming experience and farming treasure chests!"
Seeing that the situation below had stabilized,
Cao Xing decided to participate in the battle as well.
The Wind Wings on his back flapped, carrying him swiftly flying onto the battlefield.
Then, raising his staff, various magic spells were cast out one after another.
Freeze a Thousand Miles!
Ice Tornado Storm!
Ice Breaking Flying Blade!
"Swish swish!"
[-95,625!]
[-112,462!]
[-137,735!]
[-158,526!]
Damage numbers, each more terrifying than the last, appeared one after another.
Cao Xing's current base attack power was fourteen thousand. After activating the Winter's Descent special effect on the [Ancient Winter Set], his damage could increase by another 30%.
Coupled with various blessings, his base attack power could break through twenty-one thousand.
Then, [Crystal Mastery] increased magical damage by 20%, plus the critical strike rate granted by [Land of Glory].
This directly caused his current magic attack power to have reached a terrifying degree!
Every magic spell cast could take away a large number of near-death resurrected soldiers!
Moreover, there was also a terrifying matter—
When ten magic spells were cast, a system prompt appeared.
[Ding! You have successfully cast ten magic spells, Crystal Fury has taken effect; the damage and attack range of the next magic spell will both be increased be 100%]
At this moment, Cao Xing cast his most powerful skill without the slightest hesitation.
Forbidden Curse: Doom Ice Star!
"Swish!"
A burst of intense cold air descended instantly.
Causing the snowfield, where the midnight temperature was already over minus seventy degrees Celsius, to plummet directly to over minus eighty degrees Celsius!
The bone-chilling cold even began to stiffen the movements of the resurrected army on the field.
On the city wall, the combatants watching the battle looked in a daze at Cao Xing, who was holding up his staff and floating mid-air.
And… the scene above his head.
Expressions of near-stupor appeared in their eyes!
A portion of the resurrected army also noticed the commotion above and raised their heads to look.
Then, at a glance, they saw those extraterrestrial meteors radiating chill, resembling cold stars!
Dense and numerous, they looked like they blotted out the sky!
After leveling up during this period, Cao Xing's mental power had already reached over 5,600, and with the 20% bonus from Thunder Dragon Possession, it reached an astonishing 6,700!
And the number of Doom Ice Stars summoned was multiplied by ten, and then doubled through the Ice Crystal Fury skill!
In other words, Cao Xing directly summoned 140,000 Doom Ice Stars in this wave!
It was as if even the sky had been obscured!
Even those unfeeling resurrected monsters could feel how terrifying Cao Xing's strike was!
And after releasing this skill, Cao Xing's mental power was instantly drained!
He swallowed several drops of top-grade tree sap in one breath before slowly recovering.
Cao Xing quickly said, "Combatants, retreat!"
The moment they heard the command, all combatants retreated backwards.
That group of resurrected monsters was still charging forward blindly.
And at this moment, as Cao Xing pressed his staff downwards.
A violent vibration suddenly appeared in the sky.
The next moment.
Over one hundred thousand Doom Ice Stars, carrying world-destroying power, crashed directly down.
"Boom!!!"
The moment the first meteorite hit the ground, it triggered a heaven-shaking explosion!
A piercing icy aura instantly spread wildly outward with the explosion point as the center, and wherever it passed, everything was instantly frozen!
Then, hundreds of thousands of meteors smashed down simultaneously.
The pitch-black night sky was illuminated by a gorgeous yet terrifying ice-blue light, with each meteorite dragging a blue tail flame.
The moment the meteors made contact with the ground, the power of ice raged like a surging tide, and the ground was rapidly covered by thick ice!
The violent roaring echoed between heaven and earth like thunder, shaking people's eardrums to the point of cracking!
Then, they could no longer see anything.
The violent bombardment covered almost everything, blocking everyone's line of sight.
At the same time, the earth within a dozen kilometers around experienced a crazy tremor.
Various buildings in Cao Xing's territory were also constantly shaking.
Even Black Knight Tirnis, who was currently staying in the ancient battlefield, raised his head and looked at the sky in puzzlement.
The trembling above their heads, the City of Gloom was shaking continuously!
This was the power of the double forbidden spell!
With a single strike, a radius of more than a dozen kilometers trembled in shock!
If Cao Xing hadn't intentionally controlled the bombardment distance, a city like Merlind City would have already turned into ruins by now.
When the terrifying bombardment dissipated.
Dense, massive craters appeared ahead.
And inside these massive craters, strong chills were currently emanating.
The number of the 50,000 resurrected army plummeted by well over half!
Only less than a tenth of the original remained.
One can well imagine what kind of concept this was!
System prompts appeared.
[In this battle, you have accumulated a total of 44,692 kills of Lv65 resurrected army, gaining Experience Points: 111,841,730 (Pale Lead)]
[Combatants gained Experience Points: 55,920,865]
[Your level has increased, current level: Level 66…]
[Your level has increased, current level: Level 67…]
[Your…]
Continuous pillars of white light rose from within Cao Xing's body!
At the same time, surges of powerful energy emerged, causing his stats to skyrocket massively!
However, the white light continued to emerge, and his level kept rising.
Finally, it stopped directly at Level 69!
Over 100 million experience points directly raised his level by 4!
Moreover, not only Cao Xing, but everyone else on the field also rose by two to three levels!
This was the terror of a forbidden spell!
With a single strike, the entire audience fell silent!
The warriors looked at the commotion before their eyes one after another, disbelief in their eyes.
After a long while, they finally reacted.
The Wild Boar Warrior said in a daze, "It's too exaggerated…"
"It's really too exaggerated—"
"Even those Hero-level Archmages couldn't unleash such terrifying magic like the Lord, right?"
And the Centaur beside him excitedly said, "Chieftain above! Lord is truly the strongest!"
"I can only see this kind of power in those Archmages who are close to Legendary."
Even many workers on the city wall had closed their eyes at this moment, pressing their hands together in prayer.
In their hearts, they had already revered their Lord as a deity!
Cao Xing smiled.
He could only use a forbidden spell of this level once in a short period.
However, the effect was still quite good.
With a single strike, he wiped out over 40,000 members of the resurrected army.
Moreover, these were not ordinary resurrected army, but a resurrected army with Level 65 and Tier-7 strength.
Among them, there were also a large number of elite and boss-level creatures!
But likewise, they were taken away on the spot by Cao Xing!
Moreover, following the outbreak of his forbidden spell, less than one in ten of the resurrected army below survived.
Within just a few minutes, they were wiped out by the warriors on their side.
After the battle in the rear battlefield ended, Bjorn led the other warriors to quickly return to the front battlefield for assistance.
It can be said that the subsequent battle had even less suspense.
Just like that, this seventh wave of battle lasted for about an hour.
And the remaining tens of thousands of the resurrected army once again contributed a massive amount of experience to Cao Xing.
Raising him directly to Level 70!
Which is the Tier-7 max level!
He had already become the existence with the highest level in the entire territory.
However, everyone else's levels were also rising rapidly.
Liu Muxue and Sarah had both rushed to Level 70 max level.
The witch Francesca reached Level 68, and Victoria was at Level 69.
Braum's level also reached Level 66.
The levels of other core combatants were all between Level 61 and Level 65!
The increase in levels caused their strength to usher in a skyrocketing surge!
Now, Cao Xing went from originally having over thirty Tier-6 powerhouses, turning into over thirty Tier-7 powerhouses!
"How refreshing."
"This wave of monster siege has once again allowed my territory's strength to improve rapidly."
However, because the number of monsters was too large, they spent a bit more time compared to the sixth wave of battle.
It was now past two o'clock in the early morning.
Seeing that the leaderboard had not updated for a long time, the Survivors even thought that Cao Xing had given up the challenge.
And just about half an hour later.
The Survivors suddenly saw the leaderboard change!
[First Place: Cao Xing, Cleared Waves: Wave 7, Challenge Time: 1 hour 12 minutes…]
[Second Place: Bai Zhi, Cleared Waves: Wave 6, Challenge Time…]
[Third Place…]
As the only existence on the leaderboard who cleared the seventh wave.
The chat channel also sparked a sensation, and the Survivors were full of amazement!
"Brothers, Great Lord Cao Xing really succeeded in the challenge!"
"Outrageous! That was a monster army of Level 65, and he actually managed to withstand it and successfully passed the challenge."
"I heard from people in Bai Zhi's legion that they encountered 500 Tier-7 monsters in the sixth wave. Guess how many Great Lord Cao Xing had on his side?"
"Since Bai Zhi had 500, I guess Great Lord Cao Xing had at least around 2,000 in the seventh wave?"
"Too low, I estimate five thousand, or even eight thousand is possible!"
"As expected of Great Lord Cao Xing, he is simply too monstrous!"
However, what they didn't know was that what Cao Xing faced this time was not a few thousand or tens of thousands.
But a full 100,000 master-level resurrected army.
It was simply because this number was too exaggerated.
No one would believe it at all.
And at this moment, Cao Xing also heard a system prompt.
[You have successfully cleared the seventh wave of the monster siege challenge. Time taken for this battle: 1 hour 12 minutes, Current ranking: 1]
[You obtained clear rewards: Bright Moon Treasure Chest * 1]
Seeing the system prompt, the corners of Cao Xing's mouth curled into an arc.
"Finally rewarding a Bright Moon Treasure Chest."
"This monster siege is truly a welfare event!"
Don't look at it as just a Bright Moon Treasure Chest reward, but that was also a very generous reward!
After all, a treasure chest of this level had a high probability of dropping Epic rewards.
Before he could check the rewards in the chest.
The system prompt appeared once again.
[Survivor Cao Xing, please note! Do you wish to continue with the eighth wave of the monster siege challenge?]
(Note! The monster level of the eighth wave will reach Level 70, and the number of monsters will double again, among which commander-level creatures will appear. Please choose carefully!)
Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing also furrowed his brows slightly.
"The number of monsters in the eighth wave will actually double again. Calculated this way, that's 200,000 monsters attacking simultaneously."
"Unless I pull up those undead from the ancient battlefield, I simply can't deal with so many monsters."
However, doing this wasn't quite worth it.
After all, those 100,000-plus undead in the ancient battlefield were his trump card, and they could not be resurrected.
It was equivalent to losing one for every death.
Cao Xing definitely didn't want to suffer heavy losses of undead while challenging the monster siege.
He shook his head and said.
"Better wait for next time, until the robot army in my territory takes shape."
"Or wait for Dragon Speaker to return, then we can proceed with the eighth wave challenge."
Thinking of this, Cao Xing directly clicked reject.
And as he made his choice here, a system prompt appeared.
[Survivors, please note! The monster siege challenge for all lords in the four major districts has ended. Leaderboard rewards are starting to be settled-]
Hearing this prompt, the Survivors all understood something.
"Indeed, Great Lord Cao Xing ultimately didn't challenge the eighth wave."
"Yeah, but it's already amazing. I see that there are very few people in the world channel who can pass the seventh wave challenge."
"Indeed, Great Lord Cao Xing is truly the number one person in our four major districts."
And at this moment, Cao Xing was still waiting for the settlement of the leaderboard rewards.
[Settlement complete. For this challenge, your ranking is 1.]
[Obtained leaderboard rewards: Bright Moon Treasure Chest * 1, gold point +100]
