Chapter 170 The Fortress of War

Sacred Guardian had always been stationed in Kolondo City, and the surrounding cities had no strong enemies, so they were relatively safe. No guild dared to attack Crux Fortress. Although Nirvana’s Flame had the strength, they were besieged on all sides and had long been unable to protect themselves.

"Who triggered the magic alarm?" Holy Flame asked in the guild chat.

"It's Feng Yue. When she returned on a flying mount, she discovered an air cavalry unit of unknown identity in the sky above Crux Fortress," a player immediately replied.

Holy Flame frowned. Air cavalry were often used by guilds as the vanguard of an attack. He didn't dare to be careless and immediately began to mobilize the troops inside Crux Fortress.

"Are there any hostile guild troops approaching Crux Fortress?"

"None have been found yet."

"Expand the scope of reconnaissance! Everyone else, gather with me in the central square! Gather all the air cavalry and prepare the anti-air magic cannons!" Holy Flame issued the order.

Under Holy Flame's mobilization, the entire fortress quickly went into operation.

"Let's go out and take a look together," Holy Flame said, looking at Kuang Fa and the others.

Kuang Fa and the others nodded. They were now considered members of Sacred Guardian, although they were unwilling to be subordinate to them, they had no choice.

As they were about to go outside, they suddenly heard three loud booms, and the ground shook violently.

Holy Flame's expression changed. He asked in the guild chat, "What happened?" Could someone have already invaded Crux Fortress?

Not far from the headquarters of the Sacred Guardian Guild, Lei Su, Brilliant Blade, and Shui Se Yan Tou successively fell from the sky, smashing into several shops and piercing the roofs.

After advancing to Holy Swordsman and Divine Warrior, their physical strength had been greatly improved. The class talents of Holy Swordsman and Divine Warrior were damage reduction, and ordinary falls were completely ineffective against them.

Lei Su landed steadily. The impact of the fall caused his body to squat involuntarily. The bluestone floor laid by the shop was completely cracked into pieces.

Some players were shopping in the store. Seeing Lei Su suddenly descend from the sky, they looked at Lei Su in astonishment.

After stopping the falling posture, Lei Su stood up, scanned everyone in the store, and said in a deep voice: "I am Lei Su of Nirvana’s Flame. Irrelevant players, leave. We only kill people from Sacred Guardian!"

Lei Su's voice was like a thunderclap, making the players' eardrums buzz. They looked at Lei Su. Lei Su was a head taller than them, wrapped in heavy metal armor, which reflected dazzling metal light in the sun, like a tall god. They had to look up to him.

"It's actually someone from Nirvana’s Flame!" The players were a little surprised. Nirvana’s Flame had actually broken into Crux Fortress!

Bang, bang. Two spells bombarded Lei Su's body, and two big "miss" floated above Lei Su's head.

Lei Su looked towards the source of the spells. They were two mages, looking at him in a loss.

Lei Su snorted coldly: "Overestimating yourself!" He slashed with his sword, and a crescent-shaped sword aura swept past. The two mages didn't have time to dodge and were swallowed by the sword aura, letting out two screams and turning into two white lights. The wall of the store was cut into two pieces by the sword aura, and sunlight shone in through the cracks.

There were no people from Sacred Guardian here. Lei Su walked forward, and a wall blocked his way. He punched out, and with a bang, rubble splashed and the wall collapsed into an exit. He walked towards the exit without any obstruction, leaving only a dozen players staring blankly at his leaving figure.

On the other side, Brilliant Blade and Shui Se Yan Tou walked over from where they were and joined Lei Su. Any Sacred Guardian players they encountered on the street were undoubtedly killed. The places they passed were littered with corpses.

"Do we need to wait for Nie Yan and the others to come over?" Lei Su asked, looking at Brilliant Blade and Shui Se Yan Tou.

Brilliant Blade shook his head and said: "The headquarters of Sacred Guardian is nearby, let's kill them at their headquarters!"

"We must have a good time killing today!" Shui Se Yan Tou said heroically.

Although Crux Fortress was the main stronghold of Sacred Guardian, with as many as a million players active here, more than 100,000 of them were from Sacred Guardian alone. However, they were scattered throughout the fortress, and it was estimated that most people didn't know that Shui Se Yan Tou and the others had already killed their way into their lair. In such a large fortress, it would probably not be easy for the people of Sacred Guardian to block them.

The alarm of Crux Fortress sounded again and again, piercing the sky. Most of the players in the fortress hadn't understood what was happening and were already in chaos.

Just as Shui Se Yan Tou and the others were talking, a group of about a hundred Sacred Guardian players surged towards them from the end of the street.

"It's Nirvana’s Flame! Block them!" A shield warrior with a heavy shield at the lead activated Charge and rushed towards Shui Se Yan Tou and the others. The warriors behind him followed suit, trying to block Shui Se Yan Tou and the others here with their numbers.

Seeing the shield warrior rushing up, Brilliant Blade shouted violently, stepped forward, and smashed the heavy shield in his left hand fiercely towards the incoming person.

A heavy pressure came over him. The shield warrior's heart trembled, and he quickly raised his shield to block. With a bang, the two heavy shields collided together.

The heavy shield in the shield warrior's hand was like a tile, instantly shattering. A powerful force crashed over, causing his body to fly backwards involuntarily.

Brilliant Blade took another step forward and slashed with the one-handed sword in his right hand. A white light flashed, and the shield warrior was killed by his sword.

The Sacred Guardian's priest behind him was preparing to cast a heal on the shield warrior, but he realized it was too late before his heal was finished chanting.

The level 95 shield warrior was killed just like that. The priest's eyes were a little dull.

In the eyes of Lei Su and the others, this group of players were like ants. There was an essential difference between top-tier classes and ordinary first-tier classes. Due to the talents of top-tier classes, their defense was more than twice as high as that of any warrior here. Ordinary players' attacks could only cause three-digit damage to them at most, and they often missed. Each of them had at least fifty to sixty thousand health points, and the blood-cow-level Brilliant Blade even had a shocking eighty to ninety thousand health points. They were definitely genuine heavy tanks!

"Go back and tell Holy Flame that Shui Se Yan Tou, your grandpa from Nirvana’s Flame is here to collect debts!" Shui Se Yan Tou said in a deep voice. He slashed with his sword, and three warriors were sent flying. With a sudden charge, he knocked away two or three warriors and rushed into the group of mages behind.

More than a dozen Sacred Guardian mages panicked and wanted to escape to the outside, but it was too late.

Shui Se Yan Tou roared and used Furious Whirlwind Strike! (A skill with swirling sword energy)

A powerful storm of sword energy formed with Shui Se Yan Tou as the center, and all the surrounding ten or so mages were instantly killed on the spot.

Shui Se Yan Tou, Lei Su, and Brilliant Blade's attacks were too fierce. As soon as they made contact, more than 30% of the hundred-plus players were killed, and they scattered and fled in defeat, hating their parents for not giving them two more legs.

Lei Su and the others chased and killed for a while, then stopped, the ground already littered with corpses.

Lei Su glanced at the equipment dropped on the ground and asked: "Do you want this trash equipment?" Lei Su himself completely looked down on this equipment, but the players below Nirvana’s Flame might need it, so he asked Brilliant Blade and Shui Se Yan Tou.

"Pick up the good equipment, and don't take anything below Dark Gold level," Brilliant Blade said. They didn't have much time to pick up equipment, so they only needed to pick up the good stuff.

In just over ten minutes, Lei Su and the others had already rushed to the outside of the Sacred Guardian Guild headquarters.

The gate of the Sacred Guardian Guild headquarters was tightly closed. The gate was five yards high and made entirely of metal, covered with iron nails, looking solemn and majestic.

Lei Su walked straight to the gate, gathering a powerful force in his fist. He roared and punched out fiercely, slamming it into the gate. A surge of surging energy flowed from all parts of his body to his right fist.

This was a technique Lei Su learned from Nie Yan, which allowed the energy of the whole body to be integrated. In comparison, as a Holy Swordsman with a strength talent, he used such a skill, and it was definitely more terrifying than Nie Yan.

There was a loud bang, and the gate shattered into pieces, falling and collapsing. The three of them rushed into the Sacred Guardian Guild headquarters together.

At this time, Nie Yan and the others also landed from the sky in various ways and entered Crux Fortress.

As soon as Tang Yao and Lust reached the fortress, they became excited. For them, Crux Fortress was their battlefield.

"Sacred Guardian brats, fear, wail, tremble, your Grandpa Yao is here!" Tang Yao laughed loudly, waving his staff, and black flames blasted towards the players in the distance, and tragic screams rang out from a hundred yards away.

Hearing Tang Yao imitating the lines of the Boss in the dungeon, Nie Yan and the others couldn't help but smile.

Discovering that Nie Yan and the others had appeared in the fortress, the Sacred Guardian players gathered towards Nie Yan and the others in groups, trying to block them.

Lust uttered two heavy syllables in his throat, and a thick lightning pillar descended from the sky, blasting away two buildings and a hundred or so players in the distance with a bang.

Nie Yan climbed onto a building dozens of yards high, looking down at the entire fortress, checking the situation of the entire Crux Fortress. His eyes suddenly glanced at a figure flashing past in an alley five or six hundred yards away.

Nie Yan's eyes suddenly narrowed. He was too familiar with that figure. It was the leader of Sacred Guardian, Holy Flame!
