Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 4)

Chapter 721 - Royal Griffon Corps, Kill!

Bladelight was knocked back by a powerful rebound force. He regained his balance mid-air and landed back on his feet.

"Wretched, lowly human, you dare to challenge a follower of the god of death!? Die!" Necromancer Vorderman bellowed out. The bone dragon strode forward, flattening a building beneath its feet.

At this moment, a barrage of spells bombarded the bone dragon. The explosions from the spells forced it to stagger several steps back.

Necromancer Vorderman reigned in the bone dragon. He locked his gaze onto the assaillants. Several Magisters stood loftily on arrow towers, walls, and roofs of buildings with their staffs raised. Magic energy swirled around them as their robes fluttered in the wind.

14 Masters were spread out in the vicinity of the bone dragon.

Necromancer Vorderman had an unsightly expression on his bony face. He had the bone dragon whip out with its tail. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! It destroyed several buildings and part of the wall of the Cripps Stronghold.

Bladelight and the others leaped into the air and evaded the attack.

An epic battle was about to unfold.

The catapults in the Cripps Stronghold repeatedly fired at the bone dragon. However, the shells did little to no damage. Its body was harder than steel. Necromancer Vorderman chanted out an incantation and called down a hail of raging flames, burning over a dozen catapults to a crisp.

Bladelight and the other Masters could only hinder the bone dragon. They were far too weak to prevent it from destroying the inside of the stronghold.

Standing on top of a mountain in the distance, Qin Han gazed over in the direction of the Cripps Stronghold. The walls were riddled with holes. The Warriors of Asskickers United could only hold their positions from the fortified defensive structures and repel the enemy with all their might. Before long, the stronghold would be overrun by his skeleton army.

Qin Han coldly laughed. No matter how strong Masters were, they were no match for a demi-god like Necromancer Vorderman.

Qin Han had to admit that Asskickers United was strong, but they still wouldn't escape destruction.

When the skeleton army defeated Asskickers United, the entire Viridian Empire would belong to the Monet Financial Group. Recalling Xie Yao and Nie Yan holding hands, recalling how Nie Yan had snatched away his rightful spot in Heavenly Kings, Qin Han's heart bubbled over with excitement and a sense of vindication. He was going to prove everyone that doubted him wrong! Then when he turned Nirvana Flame into history, Xie Yao would leave that loser for him! He immersed himself in his delusions.

The crazed look in Qin Han's eyes caused Matchless Divine Sword to slowly inch away.

...

Calore, the Elder Council.

Nie Yan signed off on the application to move Asskickers United's guild headquarters from the Cripps Stronghold to Okoron. Looking at the time, there were still about three hours before the servers went offline. If he could stall the battle until then, victory would be his.

He finally utilized his authority as a Great Prophet and mobilized the troops in Calore.

Calore had the most powerful army among all the cities in the Viridian Empire, namely their special division, the Royal Griffon Corps. It was composed of 3,000 troops, among which were over 100 Masters while the rest were Level 180+ Elites or Lords. They were clad in the most elite imperial armour, and all of them were paired with Royal Griffons that were all at least Rank 6, with even a few Rank 8s and 9s mixed between. In comparison the NPC recruits in Okoron looked like nothing but a ragtag band of thugs.
