Chapter 187: Claiming the Victory Xin’s intervention, aided by the mystical amulet, had indeed tipped the scales decisively. As the battle raged on, it became evident that Snow Angels would emerge victorious.
The once-confident Tiger Eyes found himself overwhelmed. His guild members were unable to withstand the combined might of Snow Angels and the sudden light that left them weak and defenseless.
The battle turned into a fierce struggle, but with every passing moment, Feral Domination’s chances grew slimmer.
In the heart of the battle, as the clash between Snow Angels and Feral Domination intensified, it became increasingly evident that Feral Domination was teetering on the brink of defeat.
The once-confident demeanor of Tiger Eyes wavered as he watched his guild’s members struggle against the relentless onslaught from Snow Angels.
Desperation etched lines on his face, realizing that if things continued at this rate, Feral Domination would undoubtedly lose the battle, dealing a severe blow to their reputation.
. Amidst the chaos, a top player named Valiant Blade, who had the highest level in the group, assessed the dire situation.
His sharp eyes scanned his inventory, searching for a solution to turn the tide of the battle. A bead of sweat trickled down his temple as he hesitated, his fingers hovering over a particular item — a relic of immense power that he had acquired in a previous hidden boss fight.
The item is known as the Aegis of Eternity. It was a shield forged from the scales of a legendary dragon and enchanted by ancient magics.
Its surface shimmered with iridescent hues, reflecting the light of the dual moons above, and it bore intricate runes that seemed to dance with arcane energy.
The shield was said to possess the ability to create a barrier impenetrable to all but the most powerful of attacks.
With a determined glint in his eyes, Valiant Blade clenched the Aegis of Eternity in his hand. The shield responded to his touch, resonating with his power.
Despite his reluctance to use such a precious artifact, he knew that this was his only chance to salvage the battle and protect his name.
Losing against the other side meant a huge blow to his reputation, and that meant losing clients in the future.
Though his item cost a fortune, he would lose more if he didn’t use it now.
Valiant Blade’s fingers tightened around the shield’s handle, and with a resolute nod, he activated its hidden power.
The Aegis of Eternity unleashed a blinding burst of light, enveloping Valiant Blade and radiating outward like a protective aura.
As the glow expanded, it formed an impenetrable barrier around Feral Domination’s top players, shielding them from Snow Angels’ relentless assaults.
Under the shield’s protective embrace, Feral Domination’s members found renewed strength and got back to their feet.
Empowered by the Aegis of Eternity, they rallied, their attacks becoming more coordinated and their defenses impenetrable.
Tiger Eyes witnessed the sudden shift in the battlefield dynamics and roared with renewed vigor, urging his top players to seize the opportunity.
With a triumphant gleam in his eyes, Tiger Eyes witnessed the sudden shift in the battlefield dynamics and let out a roar of renewed vigor. His voice, laced with arrogance, cut through the chaos as he sneered at Snow Angels.
"Ha! Did you really think you stood a chance against the might of Feral Domination? This is what true power looks like! Prepare to be crushed beneath the unstoppable force of my guild! You should have surrendered while you still had the chance!"
Xiaxia rolled her eyes. It was not Tiger Eyes who shifted the tide of the battle, but he talked like he was the one who sacrificed a rare item to save his guild.
What a jerk. Xiaxia thought while she engaged Tiger Eyes. She didn’t know why he still have members in his guild and in the top five hundred.
Wouldn’t his guildmates just get annoyed with his nonstop boasting about himself?
The intensity of the clash between the guilds reached new heights.
Feral Domination, once reckless, now fought with caution, carefully weighing their moves. They didn’t hesitate to deploy their most valuable items if it meant winning.
Each member, fueled by a mix of desperation and determination to win, utilized their unique abilities and items, transforming the battlefield into a spectacle of magic and steel.
In this heated atmosphere, Feral Domination’s players showed remarkable teamwork, coordinating their attacks and defenses seamlessly.
They utilized their items strategically, aiming to exploit every weakness in Snow Angels’ ranks to get the upper hand.
The battlefield crackled with energy as spells collided, swords clashed, and shields held firm against every attack.
Every decision was calculated, every move deliberate.
Feral Domination’s fighters, spurred on by the fear of failure and the desire to protect their prestige, fought fiercely, pushing their skills and items to the limits in their quest for victory.
One by one, top players fell on both sides, casualties of the intense battle that raged on. Among the fallen were from Feral Domination and Snow Angels alike.
Meanwhile, Xin had anticipated that the opposing team’s top players would possess rare items as well, even more so than his.
Xiaxia should have made sure that there was no item in the rules at least, but Xin guessed that her luck was so bad that day that she only managed to get one out of all the six rules of the war.
"Typical of seasoned professionals," Xin mused as he stared at the fight, impressed despite the circumstances.
Their movements mirrored the precision of Victor and the strategic prowess of Midnight Duchess. Their skills and spells exceeded tier 7, and they wielded an endless supply of rare items amassed over years of gameplay.
What set them apart, Xin noted, was their ability to coordinate seamlessly and adapt swiftly to the ever-changing battlefield.
Their exceptional map awareness allowed them to anticipate moves, giving them a distinct advantage.
Taking a deep breath, Xin recognized that had he not intervened and warned Xiaxia, she would have undoubtedly lost the war.
That idiot . . . Xin thought.
Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, Xin’s mind raced like a well-oiled machine, contemplating strategies and possibilities.
His eyes scanned the ongoing conflict, seeking a weak point in the enemy’s formation. The clashing swords and crackling spells were background noise to his focused thoughts.
His gaze fell upon a critical moment. The top players of Snow Angels and Feral Domination were engaged in fierce combat, each side determined to outmaneuver the other.
A plan began to form in Xin’s mind, a risky yet potentially game-changing move that could tip the scales in their favor.
Xin considered the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. He acknowledged the superior items and skills possessed by the opponents, recognizing that a direct confrontation would be futile.
Instead, he delved into the intricacies of the battle, identifying the enemy’s blind spots and vulnerabilities.
Inspiration struck him like a lightning bolt. He realized that their opponents, while skilled, were operating under a set pattern. They were adapting but within certain limits. It was these limits that Xin intended to exploit.
His plan took shape –– a diversion, a feint, and a surprise attack from an unexpected angle.
Xin knew he needed to create confusion among the enemy ranks, disrupt their coordination, and catch them off guard.
It was a high-risk maneuver, but the potential reward was worth it: breaking the enemy’s formation and isolating their top players.
He would create a false opening, luring the enemy into a trap while Snow Angels’ top players stealthily repositioned themselves.
Timing would be crucial; he needed to strike when the enemy least expected it.
Xin’s fingers tightened around a small, unassuming item in his inventory –– a Smoke of Deception, a rare item that shrouded the user in an impenetrable mist, rendering them invisible to the naked eye.
It was a tool of deception, and Xin intended to use it to the fullest of its price. He hoped Xiaxia realized the length he was willing to do for her sake.
With a deep breath, Xin activated the Smoke of Deception, disappearing from the enemy’s sight. He moved swiftly and silently, circling around the battlefield, positioning himself strategically.
As the mist enveloped him, he became a phantom, unseen and unheard.
Meanwhile, he subtly signaled Snow Angels’ top players, conveying his plan through a series of prearranged signals. They nodded in understanding and trusted in Xin’s strategy.
With everything in place, Xin waited for the precise moment. He watched as the enemy fell into the bait, isolated against a top player.
Their enemies were drawn to their adversaries, never really paying Xin any attention, so he was the best guy for the task.
As they took the bait, Xin struck –– emerging from the mist behind Feral Domination’s key players, his weapon poised for a lethal blow.
The element of surprise was his greatest ally. With a swift and calculated motion, Xin unleashed his attack, incapacitating one of the enemy’s top players.
Though there was a difference in level, his enemy already has a low HP, and that was all the distraction Stormcaller needed to finish their enemy.
The tide of the battle shifted dramatically. The enemy, thrown into disarray by the unexpected assault, struggled to regroup.
There were only two top players left in Feral Domination, while three were on Snow Angels side.
At this point in the battle, all usable items were used, and thus, the inevitable defeat was at hand.
