Chapter 563: Battle of the Thrones (Top)

Chapter 563: Battle of the Thrones (Top)

Three minutes ago.

Hu Yitian, during the Continental War held at the Continent Cloud in the past, had only learned a half-pinnacle skill. But as time went by, he was able to awaken that skill to full pinnacle, which allowed him to gain a strength to kill even players that had transferred to high class in just a single strike. In other words, he was much stronger.

But then, the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom started to appear one after the other. In fact, there were only less than thirty people that appeared. When the commentators saw the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom appear, they immediately voiced their inability to understand the situation.

[All of the guild members and key personnel of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom have appeared!]

[I don’t understand what in the hell the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom is thinking.]

[Why are they all here? Aren’t they supposed to protect the castle?]

The commentators thought that the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom was crazy. It was not just them. Even the fifteen countries’ allied troops laughed when they saw just around thirty members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom appear in front of them.

“What the hell? Did you all give up already?”

“What? The Food God is not here, so you’re all tucking your tail quickly?”

“Pffft…! Are you here to ask to come inside and eat?”

“Bwahahahahahaha! Hey, stop that! Don’t go overboard. They might get too scared and pee themselves!”

The ones that were feeling the greatest disappointment were the people of Korea.

[They’re not really going to kill themselves just because the Food God is not here, right…?]

[They shouldn’t give up like this. The members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom are the core members of Korea’s Battle of the Thrones team. What are they doing appearing here all at once?]

[This is really disappointing. Beyond the Heavens Kingdom. Are they telling us that they will not fight a losing battle?]

Everyone was fully aware that the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom had to bear the burden of fighting against fifteen or more countries from the very beginning. It was because their kingdom was built first, which became their greatest challenge. One of the commentators pointed this problem out.

[In the first place, I don’t know if it would work at all. Joy Co. Ltd.’s side would have already predicted that this would happen. They should have put a limit on the number of countries that can form an alliance that can attack another kingdom.]

[That’s right. Things are a bit insufficient since they prepared this Battle of Thrones in a hurry.]

[Beyond the Heavens Kingdom and America will suffer from this.]

“Keuhahahahahahahahaha!”

“Bwahahahahahahahahaha!”

“Fufufufufufufufufufufu!”

“M*th*rf*ckers! As expected of the chousennjinns!!!”

The fifteen thousand troops mocked them loudly. All of the players selected to participate in the Battle of the Thrones were rankers. It did not matter how strong the members of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom were, what could they do with just a small number? Just when their laughter dominated the field and the Koreans began to sigh, Genie, Khan, and Locke all made way for the person behind them.

At that moment, all of the 15,000 enemy troops saw the man with his knees bent, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword and a red aura exploding from the blade of his sword. The man was none other than Emperor of the Swords, Carr.

“Quick Draw.”

Carr’s sword was quickly drawn from its sheath, creating blades within a forty meter radius and cutting down around a hundred players in one go.

Ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping—

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

“Keuhaaaaaaack!”

“Keheooooooook!”

“Graaaaaaaaack!”

“P, prepare for battle!”

But Hu Yitian’s orders were already too late.

A man with golden hair fluttering behind him and a golden staff in his hands appeared in front of them from the black ashes. This great being was none other than Golden Mage Ali.

“Compress.”

Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—

The moment Ali’s open palm clenched into fists, an unbelievable thing unfolded in front of them. Almost 5,000 people were gathered as if they had been sucked in the middle of the field.

“This, this is ridiculous…!”

“Crazy…! This can’t be happening!!!”

Plenty of the mages all over the world had denied Ali’s strength. Rumor had it that he was a very talented person that even Alex, the number one in the mage’s global rankings, could not match up to. And of course, it was proven in the World War. But at the end of the day, it was just what they had seen on the TV. Since they had not experienced and seen it for themselves, they could still deny the truth.

The mages that had denied Ali’s prowess and existence so far could not help but be flustered by the ridiculous, wide-area Compress magic that he displayed. Even top ranking mages could only compress 300 people at most and that was already impressive. Of course, Ali had consumed a huge amount of his MP, but he’s someone that inherited Black Dragon Vormon’s mana heart. This meant that his MP was on a different scale than what these mages thought.

“Firewall. Firewall. Firewall. Firewall. Firewall. Firewall. Firewall. Firewall.”

Ali released more than ten of the Firewalls that he ‘stored’ on the allied troops. And for the finale…

“Meteor.”

…the sky was torn apart as a huge meteor descended on the ground.

“Mages, Dispel!!!”

“Is there even a mage that can dispel that?!!!”

“Can, can someone even dispel Ali’s magic?!”

“We, we can’t!!!”

“That’s impossible!!!”

“How do we even dispel Ali’s magic?!!”

The strength and power of their characters were completely different from their strength and power in reality. Even if dozens or hundreds of low-leveled players gathered together, they would not be able to deal with one or two high rankers. It was the best example for the gap in strength between them and Ali.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaaa—

More than 3,000 players that had been gathered together were hit and left in a critical state the moment Meteor fell on the ground.

“Keuhaaaaaaack!”

“Aaaaaaaaack!”

Someone was crushed to their death, while another was burned to their death. But since they were all rankers, they were quick to get back on their feet, their attacks immediately aiming for Ali. But then…

“Great Shield.”

[Great Shield.]

[A shield will be created depending on your magic’s tier and magical defense.]

A Great Shield, which only the highest tiered mage could express, appeared in front of Ali. And it was even as high and as thick as the walls of a fortress.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The magical attacks sent by the mages and the skills used by the close combat players to counter-attack were easily blocked.

“…I can’t use any attack magic now.”

That was right. The battle had just started but Ali’s MP had already run out. Even the skills that he stored had eventually reached their limit. But just like Ali, all of the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom used everything that they got. While everyone was busy laughing and mocking at them, the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom were all preparing their strongest AOE attack skills.

Elpis, the one hailed as the lesser demon, was known as the strongest NPC in the world. Although he was not one of the Supreme NPCs, his power was definitely on par with them. With the figure of the demon appearing above his head and getting sucked into his body, the power that he could express was something that even Sword Emperor Ellie could not contend against.

“Berserk.”

Vwooooooooooong—

[Berserk.]

[All abilities will be increased by 16% and all stats would have a +2 increase.]

[Berserk will last for 5 minutes.]

Elpis used his strongest AOE attack skill, the same skill that split even the head of Great Demon Verus in the past.

“Splitting the Great Demon.”

Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—

Plenty of magical attacks soared towards Elpis. However, Elpis’ defense was beyond anyone’s imagination. He simply ignored all of the attacks sent his way as the blade of his sword increased in size, reaching around ten meters in length. On top of that the skill Splitting the Great Demon was an amazing skill that added an additional 3,000% attack power on his attacks. If Elpis’ attack power, which was far higher than Minhyuk’s attack power, had an additional 3,000% added on it, he would be able to cut down plenty of dragons if he wished to. This disaster befell the allied troops.

Fwooooooooosh—

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr—

The ground split in half. As for the people on it? They all turned into ashes and disappeared with the wind.

Then, immediately after that, Great Pirate Gorfido, the legend of the Japanese Server that did not lag behind Elpis in terms of power, made his move with his ten-thousand-year sword and ten-thousand-year chain in his hands.

“Tidal Knife.”

The moment his ten-thousand-year sword struck the ground, a fourteen meter tidal wave filled with hundreds of blades rose from the ground and swept away their enemies.

“Keuheooooooook!”

“Keuhaaaaaaaaack!”

“Aaaaaaack! Urkkkk!”

Great Pirate Gorfido’s attack power was also beyond anyone’s imagination. On top of that, the Tidal Knife was his strongest AOE attack skill. The enemies that stood in front of him were all swept away.

And Hu Yitian? He could not believe what was happening in front of his eyes, ‘N, no. Does this even make sense?!’

It was completely ridiculous. They came at a time when all of the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom were waiting for them with all of their AOE attack skills ready. On top of that, each of them had high defense that could easily withstand several attacks from decent rankers. Unbeknownst to them, there were also several notifications that rang for the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom the moment the troops sent by the fifteen kingdoms attacked them.

[You are being attacked by fifteen kingdoms.]

[The system has recognized this to be a concentrated attack towards South Korea’s Kingdom, the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, and is now giving you special rewards!]

[All of your stats will increase by 5%!]

[Your skill cooldown will decrease by 5%!]

[All of your attack and defense will increase by 10%!]

But that was not all. They also had a walking buff in the form of the great being, Kimaris.

[You have received Unparalleled Bravery’s buff effect!]

[Unparalleled Bravery will increase more than 15% of the stats of the people that fight alongside Kimaris!]

[All of your stats have increased by 16%!]

That was right. With their walking buff Kimaris, they would be able to express even more power when fighting in a large-scale battle. But of course, their attacks were not yet over. Black Dragon, who was wearing a black armor on his body and riding on top of his red dragon, descended with all four of his dragons and commanded, “Breath.”

Fwaaaaaaaaaaaa—

Fwaaaaaaaaaaa—

Fwaaaaaaaaaaa—

Fwaaaaaaaaaaa—

The four legendary dragons used all of their mana and fired their Breath at the allied troops. The troops could only suffer and disappear without being able to do anything. Then, Kaistra and Penrus, who were also flying in the skies, sent a breath of light and destroyed hundreds of people. And…

“Bellowing Child!!!”

“Lightning Sword!!!”

“Giant’s Consecutive Hits!!!”

“Jeffrit’s Wrath!!!”

“God Athenae’s Swordsmanship, Chapter 7. Judge’s Sword!!!”

“Moon’s Explosion!!!”

Dozens of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom’s executives, the rankers among rankers and those that were considered to be the best in the world, had used their AOE attack skills. Their enemies disappeared in the thousands. At the same time, similar notifications rang in each of their ears.

[You have used up all of your MP!]

[You will not be able to use any of your active skills!]

[Your Stamina is running out!!!]

[…all of your MP!]

[…active skills!]

[Your Stamina…]

Most of the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom used up all of their skills and MP in just under two minutes. The same was true for Elpis and Gorfido, NPCs that were on par with Supreme NPCs. It was impossible for these strong people to use up all of their MP and skills. Existences like them would fight efficiently during hunts and wars and manage their MP usage by choosing the most appropriate skill in battle. That was actually what set them off from ordinary players.

But that was also a loophole that they could take advantage of.

Most of the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom staggered and faltered after hearing their MP being depleted and their stamina reaching their limits.

Hu Yitian and almost a hundred surviving rankers gulped dryly at the sight in front of them.

“…”

“…”

“…”

“…”

All of them were left speechless. Of course, they were only the lowest of the selected rankers and were only sent as the scouting party. However…

‘Their power is at this level…?’

Great Demon Verus was an existence that could slaughter tens of thousands of high rankers all by himself. To the allied troops, the members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom were like Great Demon Verus. And as if to hammer the nail in the head, a pig’s cry rang loudly in the ears of the survivors that had completely lost their will to fight.

“Oiiiiiiiiiiiiink!!!”

Predator’s Authority was baby piggy Beanie’s most OP skill. And he used this skill to copy Great Pirate Gorfido’s strongest AOE attack skill, the Tidal Knife, in order to sweep away the remaining enemies.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—

Beanie made a beautiful turn as the Tidal Knife wreaked havoc among the surviving enemy troops behind him.

“Oink!!!”

Beanie’s lips curled up in a cute smile. And…

[…]

[…]

[…]

The commentators and the viewers that watched the scene were all left speechless. The members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom were all on the verge of collapse, their bodies overcome with exhaustion. However, their eyes were filled with a sharp glint.

The members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom had a message for those that believed that Beyond the Heavens Kingdom was nothing without Food God Minhyuk, and those that believed that South Korea was the weakest country in Athenae without the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom; that it was not the case at all.

And Genie? She looked at the camera and smirked, “Is this all that you got? Allied troops?”

She was from a small country in Asia, a country that only had 1/20th of China’s population. Yet no one could say otherwise. None of them could even accuse her of being arrogant. And although they might not hear it, everyone was clapping for them. And South Korea?

“Waaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Woaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Woooooooooooow!”

The entire nation cheered loudly.

1. ??? - a way to refer to Koreans during the Joseon Dynasty, a dynasty where the country suffered from the rule of China and Japan. Being referred with this word is a reminder to the Koreans of the time when they were basically a slave to the rule of others and is considered to be a derogatory and insulting term.
