[World 19, Soul Ferryman]
[Death Territory, One Corner]
Under the heavy blows of Dragon Nation's Heavens Hall and Dragon Clan, the two top-tier guilds' elite professional players, the army of tens of thousands of professional players from the Seven Great Nations was beaten into retreat, forced to curl up in a corner, fleeing from the pursuit.
This place was the gathering spot for this year's newly promoted top professional players of each major empire.
Cold Nation's Celebrity Guild.
Sun Nation's epic-level Glory Knight, Clumbia.
Batan's epic-level Holy Assassin, Vicks.
Eastern Nation's epic-level Shadow Mage, Higashino Shinjo...
Everyone present was a well-known figure in their own countries.
And just moments ago, they had suffered a crushing defeat. At least over half of them had died at the hands of Dragon Nation's professional players.
At this moment, as the newly-promoted No.1 powerhouse of Batan, Vicks roared in fury, "Even if they're Dragon Nation's newly promoted elite army, we've clashed with them more than a few times before, but never have we been defeated so completely like today."
CLANG!
Glory Knight Clumbia stabbed his spear into the ground, speaking indignantly, "How did those Dragon Nation monkeys suddenly get so much stronger? Did they take drugs or something?"
Eastern Nation's Shadow Mage, Higashino Shinjo, flipped through some data, suddenly came to a realization and said, "The truth is confirmed!"
"It's that Dragon Nation necromancer again, Zero!"
"Rumor has it that he transferred a huge amount of energy to a vast number of Dragon Nation professional players. It's by relying on that power that those Dragon Nation monkeys suddenly made such explosive progress in strength."
Okaman Empire's newly promoted top powerhouse, Sacred Fire Warlord Mumu, was in disbelief, "What do you mean, he fed the entire country's players by himself? Is he the Father of the Earth?"
"A newly promoted professional player struggles just to feed himself. Where did he get so much energy to give away? This is absurd!"
"It's the truth," Higashino Shinjo said, "Undeniably, this Zero really does possess a power beyond our comprehension!"
"Now, the situation in all the major worlds is extremely unfavorable to us Seven Nations. What now? Are we just going to cede the Death Territory to Dragon Nation?"
Just as the Seven Great Nations' newly promoted core players were troubled over this, suddenly, a voice echoed in everyone's ears, "I can lend you a helping hand, help you defeat your enemies!"
"Who?", The sudden voice made everyone present become alert and scan the surroundings.
Yet they could hear the voice, but see no person.
The voice rang out again, "Cooperate with me, and I can fulfill your desires!"
"Pretending to be mysterious," Clumbia gripped his spear and shouted at the air, "If you've got the guts, come out and speak!"
Just as he finished speaking, Shadow Mage Higashino Shinjo's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said in a low voice, "Wait! Something's moving!"
The entire area fell into silence.
A moment later, Higashino Shinjo shouted, "Dragon Nation's people have caught up, full army alert!"
Even though Higashino Shinjo discovered them, it was still too late.
From all directions, a large number of assassins crept in with stealth techniques.
A wave of ambushes caught the Seven Nations' professional players, who were resting on the ground, completely off guard.
The outermost group was instantly assassinated.
In the next moment, countless elite professional players from top-tier Dragon Nation guilds such as Heavens Hall, Dragon Clan, Flourishing Age, Dragon Soar, and others came rushing from all directions, completely surrounding the Seven Nations' players.
Inside the encirclement, Vicks couldn't help but say, "Why the hell are you guys like ghosts that won't go away? Wherever we go, you follow! Are you dogs?"
"Oh? When we use your tactics against you, you don't like it?", From the outer perimeter, 110-level Flame Knight Wu Haotian shouldered a flaming spear and looked at Vicks with a calm smile, "Bro, that's a serious double standard!"
Higashino Shinjo raised his magic staff and said with overwhelming momentum, "The warriors of our Great Eastern Nation Empire will never bow their heads to anyone at any time!"
"Kill them!"
With Higashino Shinjo's command, among the Seven Nations' army, the Eastern Nation players took the lead and counterattacked Dragon Nation.
At the same time, on Dragon Nation's side, led by Luo Chen, Overlord Blade, Demon Emperor, Flourishing Age Qinxin, and Yinuo Qingcheng, under the orders of the various major guild leaders, everyone launched an attack.
Both sides' professional players instantly plunged into a fierce melee.
Heavens Hall's strength was unquestionable.
Thanks to Zhang Yue's full sponsorship, every member of the guild was fully equipped with golden attribute gear and full SS-level skills.
Meanwhile, players from Demon God, Flourishing Age, and Dragon Clan guilds had all received energy transfers from Zhang Yue as well, resulting in a massive boost.
The facts proved: quality trumps quantity.
Thus, even though Dragon Nation had only 5,000 players facing off against more than 10,000 from the Seven Nations, they weren't intimidated at all.
What's more, they almost crushed the enemy army within just a few minutes!
"Damn it... I'm mentally collapsing!", Watching his teammates fall one after another, Vicks broke down and shouted, "These monkeys are way too damn brutal!"
"We can't beat them, just can't."
"Brothers, retreat quickly!"
"Retreat my ass, they've surrounded us from all sides—there's no way out!"
Just as the Seven Nations fell into total despair, from above the sky, a deafening dragon roar suddenly erupted.
Looking up, they saw a dark dragon so massive it blotted out the sun, flying in with a world-destroying momentum.
Thirty-Six-Wing Armageddon Black Dragon.
Not a single person present didn't recognize this dragon.
On Dragon Nation's side, Knight Owl and One Night Stand couldn't help but sigh upon seeing the Armageddon Black Dragon, "Sigh, boss really doesn't trust us, huh? For a battle like this, he actually showed up in person? Couldn't we have just handled it ourselves?"
In contrast, for the Seven Nations, the appearance of the Armageddon Black Dragon was a fatal blow.
"F***! We were already losing, and now Zero actually showed up?"
"Quick, think of a way to run! Rumor has it Zero has a chance to permanently erase enemies with his attacks, if we die to him, we might just disappear forever!"
"I don't wanna die young, man!"
As the shouting continued, the Armageddon Black Dragon had already appeared above the battlefield.
When it opened its bloody maw, the Seven Nations' players on the ground, closest to its mouth, completely panicked.
They knew full well, under Zhang Yue, every pet was absurdly strong.
Before the Armageddon Black Dragon, they stood no chance.
ROAR!
With a thunderous roar, a blazing dragon flame burst out from the Armageddon Black Dragon's mouth!
Just as the Seven Nations' professional players caught in the blast radius thought they were about to be incinerated alive, they realized: even though they were being burned by the flames, they were completely unharmed.
Instead, it was a few Dragon Nation players engulfed by the flames who were instantly annihilated.
