Chapter 309 Old Acquaintance

In countless live streams, all the perspectives were focused on that magnificent ancient city built against the mountain.

The walls of the Orcish Royal Court are a hundred meters high, constructed from some kind of mysterious dark red rock, and covered with crisscrossing traces of war.

At this moment, the city walls were densely packed with burly, sinister-looking orc elites.

They were clad in heavy animal hide armor, some carrying enormous totem poles, others drawing bows as tall as a person; the somber atmosphere made the surrounding air thick and heavy.

Xu Tian was sitting on the huge, silver-white space dragon, hovering in mid-air.

The LV.60 Space Dragon was even larger than before, with visible spatial folds surrounding it, as if it did not exist in this plane, but was a projected phantom.

Xu Tian's deep eyes were fixed on a spot in the center of the city wall.

Above the most conspicuous city tower, a goat-man draped in a dark purple robe and holding a scepter inlaid with a huge eyeball looked down at the tiny army below.

"Oh, isn't this an old acquaintance?"

Xu Tian's lips curled into a smile, his tone tinged with amusement, but more so with murderous intent.

"I still vividly remember the exhilarating feeling of shattering my Undying Totem with that one blow."

That's right, the goat-man on the city wall is none other than Shaun, a high priest of the Orcish Royal Court.

When Xu Tian and his companions were escaping, this unfathomably powerful goat-man casually destroyed one of their life-saving artifacts with a single blow.

That scene was one of the few black marks in Xu Tian's heart.

At that moment, a hint of shock flashed in Sean's cloudy sheep eyes.

Of course he remembered that human being, as insignificant as an ant; in his eyes back then, that was nothing more than an insect that could be crushed at will.

But after a short time, that insect actually returned riding a legendary dragon, and judging from its posture, it was the supreme commander of this terrifying army.

"The lowly human race..."

Sean's voice was hoarse.

"Do you think you can challenge the royal court protected by the gods with these lumps of iron and some lizards that haven't even grown their scales yet?"

Before Sean could finish speaking, he suddenly raised his withered, bony hand.

The enormous eyeball at the top of the scepter suddenly burst forth with an eerie purple light.

In an instant, a terrifying energy wave that made one's soul tremble condensed in mid-air, transforming into an incredibly thick purple shockwave that seemed capable of devouring everything, and blasted straight toward Xu Tian's chest.

The hundreds of thousands of players below and the viewers in the live stream were on tenterhooks.

"Holy crap, is that a super move? Can the world stop it?"

"Get out of the way! That's too fast!"

However, Xu Tian didn't even blink when faced with this terrifying attack that could kill instantly.

He simply patted the neck of the space dragon beneath him and uttered two words indifferently.

"Empty".

hum!

A glint flashed in the silver vertical pupils of the space dragon, and a transparent silver-white light screen instantly enveloped it and Xu Tian's body.

The next second, the devastating purple shockwave passed right through Xu Tian's body, much to the horror of the crowd.

There was no explosion, no roar. It was as if the shockwave had passed through a holographic projection, striking a barren mountain behind them and leveling the entire mountaintop.

Xu Tian and the Space Dragon remained quietly in place, not even a single hair on their heads was disheveled.

This scene plunged the entire audience into a deathly silence.

"What...what is this thing? Is it an invincible cheat?"

"How is this possible? That kind of energy-level attack didn't cause any damage at all?"

In the live stream, those players who didn't understand the intricacies of the situation were already in an uproar.

At this moment, Fengxue, as the commander-in-chief, was sitting on the back of another wind dragon, calmly explaining to everyone through the headset.

"Don't panic, this is the Phase Jump ability of a LV.60 Space Dragon. In that instant, it took its master's body into a higher-dimensional subspace."

"The attack is still confined to the current three-dimensional space, so it cannot reach them. Theoretically, apart from a spatial equivalent attack, any physical or energy attack is ineffective against them."

Everyone then realized what was happening, followed by a tidal wave of cheers.

"Damn, this space dragon is practically a bug-level existence."

The old face of Shaun the Goat-Man on the city wall had become exceptionally ugly.

His prized magic power couldn't even break through the opponent's defenses.

"Damn it, you arrogant dragons."

Sean roared angrily, his voice trembling with rage.

"You are the overlords of the sky, the rulers of ancient times, and now you are willing to become the mounts of these insignificant humans? Where is your pride as dragons? Have your dignity been eaten by dogs?"

Upon hearing this, the enormous space dragon tilted its head dismissively.

Its deep, resonant voice, powerful enough to shatter glass, echoed across the battlefield, carrying a strong sense of superiority.

"Ha, little goat, what do you know? Can dignity put food on the table? Or can dignity help me level up?"

The space dragon flapped its enormous wings mockingly, its silver scales shimmering in the setting sun so brightly that Sean could barely open his eyes.

"Following my master, I'll level up 50 levels in five days, and tomorrow I'll be able to fly out of this broken sphere to explore the stars and conquer a wider plane."

"And what can you bunch of closed-minded orcs do? Huddled in this pile of rocks, fighting tooth and nail over a piece of land? You're just frogs in a well."

Sitting on the dragon's back, Xu Tian almost burst out laughing as he listened to the space dragon's series of sharp remarks.

Ever since this space dragon reached level 50 and gained sentience, and was able to simulate language through magic, it has become incredibly talkative, and its vocabulary has clearly been influenced by those players.

This scene left the players completely dumbfounded.

"Holy crap, if my dragon could talk, I'd chat with it every day."

"How can the dragons of the world be so good at spewing? The fight hasn't even started yet, but the verbal battle has already made the other side half-dead with anger."

"Look at that goat-man's face, it's almost turned purple, hahaha."

Those players who had captured ordinary dragons were now looking at their mounts with longing in their eyes.

"Hey bro, say something, give me some face."

Those dragons who were only level 20 or 30 just tilted their heads in confusion.

"Roar?"

Player: "...Fine, never mind."

In mid-air, the battle of wits between the space dragon and the goat-man Sean continued.

"You traitor, you will be obliterated by the will of the void."

Sean was trembling with rage, and his scepter clattered loudly on the marble floor.

Chapter 310 Another empty promise

"Save your breath. Once I, your grandpa Long, break in, I'll break off your ram's horns and use them as toothpicks. Then you'll know what Void Will is. My brother is a Void Dragon, after all."

Space Dragon retorted sharply.

Seeing that the time was right, Xu Tian patted the space dragon's head and smiled, stopping its tirade.

"Alright, Kongkong, stop wasting time talking to it. We need to get down to business and start eating."

Then, Xu Tian's expression turned cold, and he suddenly pulled on the reins.

The space dragon let out a loud roar, turned around, transformed into a streak of silver light, and instantly returned to the forefront of the player army.

Xu Tian looked at the wind and snow beside him and nodded slightly.

"Give the order: tonight, destroy this royal court."

Despite the wind and snow, her face remained as cold as frost, and she was not distracted by the brief interruption.

At that moment, all she could see was that grand strategic map.

Her clear voice traveled through the command channel, reaching the ears of every player and NPC commander.

"Attention, all personnel, take your positions as arranged before the battle."

"Phase 1: Pet Suppression Team. All mounts with ranged magic abilities, immediately lock onto the Beast King's protective array above the city wall and continuously release high-level magic to suppress it. Make sure to deplete its magic pool within three minutes."

"Phase Two: Heavy Artillery Coverage Group, all members of the tank formation, listen up! The moment the defensive formation breaks, there is no room for hesitation. All main guns and secondary guns fire simultaneously, aiming at the foundation of the city wall and the firing points on the city tower. Bombard them hard! The logistics supply line has been completely opened, and there is plenty of ammunition. No one is allowed to hold back on shells."

"Phase Three: Vanguard Barrier Breaking Team, consisting of players from Regiment One to Regiment Ten, in units of one hundred, responsible for clearing the way for the main force. Your main task is not to kill the enemy, but to frantically lay obsidian blocks on the road ahead. We need to pave an absolutely solid, terrain-independent steel road for tanks and infantry in this wilderness, understand?"

"understand!"

The roars of five thousand players combined, shaking the surrounding forest.

Xu Tian nimbly leaped off the dragon's back, then handed the spatial dragon directly to Feng Xue, and landed steadily in front of a group of people.

"Brothers, let's go, follow me to clear the way for the tanks behind us."

Xu Tian drew the long sword from his waist and pointed it diagonally forward.

Behind him, a group of one hundred elite players were all eager to fight.

With the player base now exploding, the previously disorganized structure has been readjusted, with each guild now comprised of a full 100 members, led by the most senior core members.

"Haha, it's finally starting, brothers, don't fall behind!"

The commander of the Second Regiment shouted to Xu Tian in the early morning.

"Ready to go at any time, let's see who can place the first obsidian stone under the city wall first?"

The commander of the Third Regiment, Feng Dian, also came over.

Four groups of kittens, five groups of six bewildered... these veterans who entered the game earliest are all gathered here now.

Apart from their initial encounter in the valley, this force comprised almost all of the most elite combat power on the continent of Eshilia.

"Ah, now that we've finished this world, we can finally work on interstellar maps."
