Chapter 631-Country Protector Beast

Translator: ryangohsf

Editor: Nora

At the gate of the imperial palace, blood flowed and bodies were strewn all over.

This was the toughest battle in Shanhai City’s history, and it also caused the most casualties. It was because this battle was not to defeat the enemy but to destroy them. During a country war, especially against the palace guards, yielding was impossible.

After this battle, the ten thousand players were killed. On the other hand, out of the forty thousand guards, five thousand were forcefully captured, while the rest died in battle.

Such glorious battle results obviously meant that the voyage squadron had to pay a similarly heavy price.

Without mentioning the five thousand servant army, out of the one thousand Divine Martial Guards, only two hundred remained. Ouyang Shuo's personal guards were basically completely wiped out. Out of the forty thousand sailors, only around ten thousand remained. Under the relentless assault of the guards, basically all the archers and handgun troops perished.

The voyage squadron was unable to maintain their organization. If they did not have the warships to rely on, even the civilians could drown out these invaders.

This battle could be said to have heavy casualties on both sides, the casualty count was similar, and there was no true winner.

……

The moment the guards fell, the players that watched on were dead silent. Despair started to spread in their hearts; there was nothing that could save them any longer.

"Singapore is over!" someone cried.

The cry started a domino effect; more and more cries spread out amongst the crowd.

"Who will save Singapore?" Someone asked helplessly.

After Chen Guang revived, he had no face to meet those comrades who supported him. He hid alone behind the walls of the mercenary group camp to reflect. As for the result of the country war, Chen Guang already had a premonition.

Singapore would not have even a single hero that could step out.

To ask the work occupation players to fight the enemy? That was just adding to the slaughter.

The game still was not real life, and the winner or loser was determined by numbers. The combat strength of the work occupation players was deemed to be 0, even lower than that of natives.

Even if Shanhai City was left with ten thousand soldiers, it was enough to suppress these players.

……

While some people were in despair, there naturally would be others who were happy.

"We finally did it!" Ouyang Shuo looked at the corpses on the crowd, and a chill ran down his spine.

There were a few times where the guards broke through the Divine Martial Guards and sword shield-soldiers and entered the archer formation. Shanhai City was on the verge of losing, and they only barely held on because of Ouyang Shuo and the Divine Martial Guards.

In the end, Ouyang Shuo even had to activate the devil bloodline.

Zheng He and the other generals, as well as the lucky survivors, had ugly expressions on their faces, as they looked at the current scene. Some even started vomiting on the spot.

One could not blame them for that, as the battlefield was no different from hell.

It was disgusting, but they still had to clean it up.

Especially the equipment the players dropped, they could not be missed.

Based on the game’s settings, if the equipment dropped was not picked up within two hours, they would be removed.

This cruel battle had lasted for over an hour.

Hence, some of the equipment was already removed; they needed to pick up the remaining ones.

"Lord, take a look!" Chen Dameng passed Ouyang Shuo a seal.

When Ouyang Shuo took it, he saw that it was a territory item, no wonder Chen Dameng was so solemn about it.

Mountain Opening Seal: After use, can open up a path through any mountain in the territory.

After the game expanded by ten times, normal hills and forests had become enormous, which made transport extremely inconvenient.

With ancient technological standards, opening up a path in the mountains was nearly impossible. Even if one was determined to do so, the manpower and time required was something that normal territories could not take.

Hence, to increase the playability of the game, Gaia had designed some lord items to help out the Lords.

The Mountain Opening Seal was undoubtedly a great item.

Its previous owner was the Fengshan County Lord. Unfortunately, Fengshan County was too small, and it did not have any mountains that needed him to use this item on.

After he died, this seal benefited Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo stored the seal, as his eyes flashed with a weird glow. He already knew what to use this item on.

……

In less than twenty minutes, the battlefield was cleaned up. Time was of the essence, and Ouyang Shuo could not wait any longer. He ordered the troops to enter the palace to complete the final step of the country war.

Suddenly, a loud roar broke out from the depths of the imperial palace.

Kong!

The roars spread out from the palace, deafening to the ears. When the soldiers heard the roar, they were shocked and stopped in their tracks.

A short while later, a snow-white lion walked out.

Charming, majestic.

When Ouyang Shuo saw this creature, his face grew solemn. During the five years of his last life, multiple country wars had happened. Hence, he was quite clear about the country war settings.

Based on the rules, apart from the imperial palace guards, each country would also have a special existence, the country protector beast, which would act as the last barrier for a country.

The beast was a true god beast, exceeding even a spirit beast.

China had a total of nine god beasts, including the Qilin, the azure dragon, the white tiger, the vermillion bird, the Xuanwu turtle, the Xiezhi (mythical Chinese unicorn), the Hou, the white marsh, and the Kui (one-legged mountain demon).

If a Lord from the same region attacked the imperial city, the country protector beast would not appear. It would only appear during country wars when the country was at its brink.

Singapore’s imperial city was known as Lion City. Naturally, the country protector beast was a lion, and it was a extremely rare white lion.

The lion in front of them was exceedingly unusual. Just the aura and might it exuded caused the faces of the soldiers to turn ashen white.

"Retreat!" Ouyang Shuo ordered.

Facing such a god beast, normal soldiers were of no use. Luckily, Ouyang Shuo also had a spirit beast beside him. When the white lion appeared, Little Green, who was meandering in the river, could sense it.

Nian!

Little Green roared out, instantly appearing on the battlefield.

The two beasts were similar in all aspects, and they fought on the same level.

Although Little Green was only a spirit beast, its time in the Spirit Beast Hall granted him an immeasurable rise in cultivation. Its current strength exceeded its father, and its potential was shocking; it had a chance to become a god beast at any moment.

Hence, facing the white lion, Little Green had no fear.

Every county protector beast possessed great strength. Based on the strength of the country, the beast could be graded into three grades, top, middle, and low. For a small country like Singapore, the white lion was naturally a low-grade god beast.

The two beasts could be said to be fighting neck in neck.

The battle between beasts did not include anything special. They simply charged at one another and fought, claws and teeth going for flesh, their massive claws slamming their opponents.

It was either biting or charging; a truly brutal and wild fighting style. It looked simple, but each move was exceedingly risky and dangerous. If a basic soldier was struck, they would die instantly.

The fur of the white lion was quickly dyed red; it was in a sorry state. On the other hand, Little Green’s scales were also clawed off by the white lion, dripping fresh blood.

The battle between the two beasts grew more and more intense, and their eyes were covered in blood, while their bestial natures were brought out.

Ouyang Shuo stood on the side, watching on with complete focus. During the battle, he had activated his devil bloodline. Now, he was just a normal person, and he could not help Little Green.

Even if he was at his full strength, he would not necessarily help. To Little Green, this was a battle between beasts; it would not let others butt in.

However, Little Green not using its horn left Ouyang Shuo confused. Logically speaking, in such a battle, its horn was far better than its teeth and claws.

Kong!

The white lion's fighting spirit was ignited, and it roared, suddenly standing up on its hind legs. Its front limbs were like two massive hands, suddenly slapping down, bringing along a whirring of the wind.

It all happened in an instant, and the huge paw smacked Little Green. With a Peng!, Little Green was caught defenseless and sent flying. With a Hong!, it crashed into the ground and could not get up.

"Little Green!" Ouyang Shuo exclaimed, “Stand up!"

When Little Green heard his words, he gazed at Ouyang Shuo, trying to get up once more. Unfortunately, it was halfway there before it crashed down once more.

It was apparent that the white lion’s strike was not a normal attack, and it was some mysterious technique. If not, with Little Green’s abnormal body, it would not have been hurt so badly.

"Good!"

Cheers broke out amongst the crowd at this inopportune moment. It came from the Singaporean players. When they saw the white lion appear, they had felt a little hope, so they stayed to watch.

Seeing the white lion display its might, the Singaporean players naturally could not help but cheer out and express their joy.

Amongst them were also some mocking toward Little Green.

When Ouyang Shuo heard them, his eyes turned cold, as he said, "Men!"

"Here!" Chen Dameng stepped up.

"Make them shut up!" Ouyang Shuo said coldly.

"Understood!"

When Chen Dameng received the order, he brought one hundred men and walked out. Instantly, a commotion started amongst the crowd.

Ouyang Shuo was not in the mood to bother about the Singaporean players. Instead, he nervously looked at Little Green. At this moment, the white lion pounced right at Little Green.

Looking at its stance, it wanted to take this chance to kill Little Green.

A battle between beasts was completely merciless.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to help, but he thought back to Little Green’s gaze before holding himself back. If the army helped at this moment, it would be an insult to Little Green.

Now, they could only look on and hope that Little Green could fight back.
