Samsara Online

At Definitive Arrow’s question, Yao Zenyu sighed deeply and a complicated look appeared on his face.

Definitive Arrow was about the same age as Yao Zenyu, so it could be said that the two grew up together. Over the years, Yao Zenyu not only treated him as a man he trusted, but also as a friend. But even Definitive Arrow had never seen such an expression on Yao Zenyu’s face before.

Other people might not know how terrifying Yao Zenyu really was, even his own father might not know; but Definite Arrow knew very well how terrifying Yao Zenyu was as a person. Even as a man skilled and talented enough to plant his feet in the top 10 level rankings, Definitive Arrow had no shame in admitting his inferiority.

It was precisely for all of the above reasons that Definitive Arrow was shocked to see that, for a split second, a pained expression appeared on the face of the Prince of China.

"Little Mei has her communication tool blocked." Yao Zenyu regained his composure as fast as the speed of a blink of an eye. "But it’s okay, she’ll show up. Her strength isn’t needed right now anyway. Someone strong like her should be fighting and shining against strong and powerful monsters instead of small fries."

Seeing Yao Zenyu’s confident attitude returning to his face so quickly, Definite Arrow even thought that the little moment of weakness earlier was just an illusion on his part.

Just as Definite Arrow was about to say something else, a thunderous sound of applause and shouts of joy coming from the front caused his words to get stuck in his mouth.

"Looks like everything went off without a hitch." Yao Zenyu smiled in satisfaction and sternly ordered, "Make a report of the deaths on our side during the 1st wave of attack. In addition, send several assassins to pick up the equipment that fell to the ground as well."

"Understood." Definite Arrow nodded, but just after taking a few steps, he stopped and asked, "What about the equipment of the non-guild players?"

Yao Zenyu simply glanced sideways at him for a moment before looking forward again without answering.

However, Definite Arrow didn’t need an answer after seeing the look in his eyes.

"Understood."

Leaving those words behind, Definite Arrow walked away and began to give orders to various players.

On the other hand, Yao Zenyu, who had been left alone on a mountain slightly higher than the rest of the field, looked up at the cloudless blue sky and closed his eyes as he muttered:

" Girl... When are you going to stop keeping your distance? Aren’t we family?"

No matter how you say it, Yao Zenyu really loved his younger sister Yao Mei very much. But no matter how much he tried to get closer to her, it was as if an abyss of fire separated the two of them; no matter how hard he tried, she wouldn’t let her guard down even for a single moment.

-South Gate of Eminentis City.

"Looks like we won’t be having lunch today."

Xie Feng casually commented as he looked towards the players approaching victoriously and starting to form a human defensive line again to prevent the 2nd wave monsters from passing through.

"I don’t think it’s necessary for us to be here for now." Gu Qianxue looked to the front and pointed. "The first monster attack was repelled quite simply actually and there probably won’t be too much trouble during the second one either."

"But, if we disconnect-" Xie Yao was about to say something, but Gu Qianxie interrupted her with a smile.

"But, if we disconnect, the morale of the other players will probably fall down because even though Xie Feng didn’t fight, just standing there is enough to raise everyone’s spirits."

"That’s right." At that moment, Yang Tian, who had stepped away to check the death count, returned. "We must stay here until the end, otherwise, by the time we reconnect it is possible that the south of the city will have collapsed."

"How did it go?" asked Xie Feng looking at him.

"Fine, but not so good." Yang Tian replied.

"What do you mean?" Xie Feng stood up straight and looked at him in confusion.

"The approximate number of players who were defending this place before the start of the 1st wave was 1.2 million." Yang Tian frowned slightly and continued. "But now, the number of players after the end of the 1st wave attack is 1.1 million."

"What about the remaining 100 thousand?" Xiao Luo couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Since we are currently in the middle of a special system event, the players killed by the monsters can’t participate in the defense battle again. That’s how it works." Hu Chen replied.

"Simply put, for each player who dies, that’s one less player defending the city." Yang Tian nodded and expressed his concerns. "What worries me is that against level 5, 6, and 7 monsters, approximately 100 thousand players died..."

"The problem is that we don’t know what level the monsters in the following waves will be." Xie Feng also frowned, understanding the problem of the matter at hand. "Even if the level of the monsters were to stay the same as in the first wave, the number of players who would die would be more than half.... So, if the monster level increases too much, it is not sure to say that we can prevent all the monsters from entering the city. The last boss of 3 SUNS was also an unexpected appearance."

Gu Qianxue looked at the faces of the nearby players silently and noticed that although most of them had cheerful smiles, some had frowns as if they were contemplating something.

"Xie Feng, it seems that some players are also thinking of retiring as they realize that the amount of experience is less than the loss of a level." Gu Qianxue approached Xie Feng and whispered softly, "During the next wave attack..."

When Xie Feng finished listening to Gu Qianxue’s idea, his eyes lit up slightly. However, he frowned and asked her, "Are you sure?"

Gu QIanxue pursed her lips and replied with a playful smile, "Well, the chances are 30%.... But even if my plan fails, it will still be good for everyone’s morale, don’t you think?"

After a moment’s consideration, Xie Feng finally smiled and nodded. "You’re right. Good, we’ll escort you then."

Gu Qianxue smiled slightly and nodded. Then, she proceeded to explain her idea to the small group of people beside her.

[Ding!... Dragon’s Revenge: Wave number 2 of 5, start.]

Just like the first wave, tens of thousands and even hundreds of thousands of amphibious monsters charged towards the city forming an immense cloud of dust, like a raging storm surge that swept everything in its path.

Xie Feng looked over his shoulder at the players behind him and saw that although they still seemed confident, many of them realized that things might be more complicated than they first thought.

But, this was also normal, after all...

[Sawtooth Shark -

Level: 10

HP: 1100

Description: A mutated shark that can move freely on land. It is said that its bite has enough power to tear a steel plate easily.

Innate: Water Resistance +20% / Fire Resistance -50%.

(Skills):

Sinister Jaw: Opens its huge mouth and bites the target in front of it. Effect: Causes physical damage in proportion to the enemy’s defense and has a 15% chance to cause ’Bleeding’ effect, draining 60 HP for 3 seconds.]

In the first wave, the strongest monster that players faced, leaving aside the final boss, was a monster similar to a swordfish but a little smaller, level seven. However, in this second wave attack, the strongest monster that Xie Feng just saw was level ten and with a bleeding skill. As for whether there were stronger monsters hidden in the back of the incoming monster army or not, Xie Feng did not know temporarily.

The bleeding skills were very scary, much more so than they appeared at first glance. For example, the Sawtooth Shark’s skill drained a total of 180 health points in 3 seconds, however, if the effect was stacked multiple times, then it was really terrifying; moreover, the damage caused by the attack itself was not to be forgotten.

"What a nuisance, I really don’t like these monsters." Xie Feng cursed under his breath. Then, with a smile, he spoke loudly enough for Yang Tian and the rest to hear, "Looks like it’s time to go out and play..."

"You go and have fun, I’ll stay here just in case." Yang Tian nodded and agreed to let Xie Feng join the fray. After all, they couldn’t let the players die so quickly when there was still the second wave in progress and three other even more difficult waves to overcome.

"Fine." Xie Feng nodded." Yaoyao, stay here. Remember that I’ll need your help soon."

Xie Yao nodded seriously. "Don’t worry big brother Xie Feng, I will do my best to help you."

Xie Feng smiled and caressed her hair gently before looking at Hu Chen, Yue Kai, and Xiao Luo, "You three, make sure to keep Qianxue in a tight circle. Don’t let the monsters get too close to her."

"""All right."""

The three of them readied their weapons and nodded severely.

All three were somewhat impatient to try out the new equipment in their hands a while ago. But like the other players with high-grade equipment, they knew not to join in the first wave, which should be the simplest, and save their energy for the next waves. However, since the situation was more difficult than previously anticipated, they could finally act.

"Alright, Ling Long, let’s have some fun."
