Chapter 691: A Mutual Destruction Score

[Vice President Uriel]: You can feel the frenzied atmosphere here. We can no longer retreat. When the battle gets intense, you can retreat first on the landing craft.

[Pawa landed]: Mr. Vice President, I am willing to fight to the end, but I will cover the members' evacuation first.

[Shoe Angel]: Ladies, as I said before, I will definitely take you away if something happens, so please leave it to me.

[Wine Angel]: I promised too, if I can get out of the lifeboat, I'll come back and continue fighting...

[Baster]: I think...

[Dodolin]: Buster, are you scared!

[Baster]: No way!
……

Da Chun roughly understood; the Ten Elders were trying to rack up points again! They were prepared to fight to the death!

NPCs don't have this score-farming mentality. Even though NPCs can resurrect under normal circumstances, they don't have the same seasoned resurrection mindset as players. NPCs only consider their current life as their only life. Of course, gods are an exception. Gods know they don't die, like the Black Iron Guardians and the Earth Mother, who see death as reincarnation—that's a different setting.

The angels present were all former guardian deities, so they were probably not afraid of death due to that setting. But the female mercenaries were not gods and were very afraid of death. Just like when they first went out of the city to do the Black Dragon Fortress mission and encountered that Chaos Beetle, at the mention of its god-slaying power, they ran as fast as they could.

No, that's not right either, everyone runs fast!

Da Chun couldn't sit still any longer. At a time like this, he couldn't treat them like NPCs who could be resurrected and ignore their lives. They really only had one life! It was also possible that it was a plot device by Uriel to get rid of the shareholders!

How to make a move? When to make a move? I don't care about that! As the guild leader, I'll make a grand entrance, what am I worried about—okay, I'm worried that the Michael monster will stop fighting and just blast me to death with its cannons!

"Your Majesty, come closer!"

"Okay, master..."

After rounding the "corner" of the distorted space, a "sun" suddenly exploded in front of us, which was just covered in smoke and dust, and the screen of Da Chun was filled with white light!
—System notification: Warning! You are facing the impact of Raziel's Doomsday Judgment...

What the hell!

"Return it first!"

Raziel, one of the Ten Elders, is a name I've only ever seen on the leaderboard, but no player has ever actually seen him. I never imagined he'd be in such a high-level setting as the Void, and that his actions would be so earth-shattering. Perhaps my worries were unnecessary.
As the light faded, Da Chun peered closer and saw a large, rolling blue-purple light screen enveloping the entire battlefield. A barrier? A domain? He couldn't see it at all!
At this point, Da Chun decided to try contacting Xiao Nan through Xiao Hua. He had been worried about the signal giving her away, but now there was signal interference everywhere...

Xiao Hua's perspective immediately connected, showing the internal command center of the Black Dragon warship. The shockwave caused Da Chun's screen to shake as well!
At the same time, Da Chun also saw the super boss through the large screen in the command cabin. It was a huge creature like a giant whale, its whole body was sparkling with crystal light, as if it were covered with a layer of mineral crystal armor. This huge blue domain seemed to be released from the armor on its body.

A voice came from inside the warship: "General, after assessment, the Divine Sage's Doomsday Judgment only weakened the main target's mana and stamina by 10%, but did not break through the defense! The first artifact weakened the opponent's stamina by 5%, but did not break through the defense! The second artifact successfully hit the landing point of the first artifact, but did not break through the defense!"

"Sage of the Divine Realm, transform into a fireball and charge towards the landing point of the first and second divine artifacts!!!"

Uriel suddenly stood up: "A salute to the bravery and fearlessness of the divine sages!"

A meteor flashed across the big screen, piercing through layers of electric nets and striking the giant whale, whose blue armor made a crisp sound!
The voice on the report was excited and thrilled: "Report! Defenses breached successfully!!"

The NPC, who appeared to be a general, roared: "All heavy cannons on the ship, concentrate your attack on the breach point! Heroism knows no distinction between friend and foe, salute to the brave warriors!!"

Da Chun was completely dumbfounded! It turned out that the earth-shattering nuclear bomb hadn't caused any damage at all! No, wait, it seems that quite a few small monsters were injured, but they didn't die?

The next moment, all the artillery fire erupted, and the big screen was filled with white light once again!
Then the warship shook violently again!

"Report: We have been struck by Void Lightning! The warship's barrier has been damaged by 35%, and backup charging has been activated..." "37 S-class creatures are emitting high-voltage electrical energy and are suspected of launching a suicide ramming attack on our ship!"

"50 secondary guns on the right side, shoot down suicide attacks..."

"Report!! The main target is launching a full-scale assault on the enemy ship!!"

"Supporting enemy ships..."

Uriel stood up again: "General! The target is charging toward the enemy ship, further exposing the wounds we just breached. Our usual support is useless. The best course of action is a full-scale attack, ramming its wounds! The enemy ship will cooperate! Those who survive, proceed with the landing!"

The general was suddenly taken aback: "This—"

Subordinate officer: "Report! The enemy ship is at full speed, loaded to 200%, and has launched landing craft to launch a head-on suicide charge against the target, inviting our troops to join the charge!"

Uriel immediately activated his special privileges: "General!! This concerns the honor of Black Dragon City, charge!"

The atmosphere was so fervent, the build-up so thorough, that the general roared, "Charge! All personnel, buckle up and prepare for impact!"

Uriel shouted, "Leave the amphibious assault to my Chamber of Commerce! All members of the Chamber of Commerce, get on the landing craft!"

Aimee then asked happily, "Vice President, are you going?"

Uriel declared with unwavering resolve, "I will perish with this entire ship!! You must board immediately!"

……

Da Chun is absolutely amazing!

Although I know this is just some high-level player spamming points, using their ultimate skill and then their artifact, and then going all out... but to even self-destruct two such large ships like that, this is ridiculous! This is your own game, and you guys are doing this...

Fortunately, the members of the Chamber of Commerce boarded the ship! Their objective became clear: first, escort the landing ship away from the battlefield, and then return to see if they could pick up any remaining pieces.

If we're going to try and snag a bargain, we really can't expose ourselves; we'll have to escort it secretly, right?

The next moment, the blue light curtain that enveloped the battlefield collapsed with a roar, and the flames of the explosion illuminated the entire void!

Da Chun finally saw it: one of the warships was smashed to pieces, while the other was like a spear, half-pierced into the body of the "giant whale".

The giant whale howled in agony once more, and a vortex storm of lightning erupted from the center of the battlefield, sweeping across the entire area!

Through Xiaohua's perspective, Dachun noticed that the landing ship Xiaonan had boarded was also spinning and tumbling in the storm.

But they couldn't care less about them anymore; the storm was sweeping in, and they couldn't stop themselves from being tossed about!

The Queen exclaimed, "Master, we must escape first!"

Okay, they're all NPCs, and they can be resurrected unless they're killed by plot devices. But the Queen… Da Chun doesn't even know what she is. If she's a wild monster, once she dies, she's truly gone. Even if she respawns, it probably won't be the same one, and it might not even be a second-upgraded version.

Protecting the Queen is probably the most responsible choice...
