The Boss Behind The Game

Chapter 149: The Construction War

Beiqi, at the periphery of the Ghost Mountains.

There were innumerable evil spirits loitering around the massive Zombie Energy Pillars. Within them, an evil spirit, with its head lifted, was breathing the zombie energy as it continued to absorb the energy into its body.

At that moment, the earth began to quake. The spirits turned to look at the source of the quake.

A crowd of players came into sight.

The players followed Wu Guoyi’s order and stopped in their tracks when they saw the Zombie Energy Pillar.

The players in the livestream channel had reached a staggering number of 2.3 million. The main objective of the expedition was to destroy the nearest Zombie Energy Pillar to the Mansion of the Dead.

Recently, the players had been mercilessly abused by the evil spirits. Therefore, they were all rather grudgeful. When Wu Guoyi and his team were trying to recruit people for the expedition, the players were eager to join, wanting to show the Beiqi Army’s strength.

“Brothers, we will launch the attack following our plan. The warriors will raid them directly, while the assassins can linger around and kill the remaining spirits. The mages can stay at the back and showcase their skills. The other unique character classes can help according to their respective skills and categories.”

Seeing the innumerable amount of evil spirits that began to charge toward them, Wu Guoyi lifted the greatsword in his hand.

“Fall in!” they were about to show evil who would bring the world the real calamity.

“Roar!” the players howled in synchrony.

Then, the mages took a step forward before they began to simultaneously summon the Yin soldiers. Right at that moment, uncountable Yin soldiers were brought to the surface before they climbed out of the ground and formed a blockade of a skeletal army before the troop of players.

“Attack!”

Under Wu Guoyi’s command and the mages’ manipulation, the Yin soldiers charged toward the evil spirits.

The warriors quickly followed behind the skeletal Yin soldiers and lunged forward.

The Evil Apocalypse and the Fourth Disaster had their first large-scale conflict.

A war had erupted. Not long after the confrontation commenced, the skeletal army, which was acting as a blockade, was immediately defeated and fell to the ground. Following that, the warriors, who were all ready to fight, performed a Groundbreaking Slash upon receiving Wu Guoyi’s command.

The red energy arrived in the form of a massive wave before it swamped the evil spirits at the front line and sent them flying.

However, the players were not done yet. At that moment, many water balls took form in the sky before they gathered above the evil spirits, fell onto them and bashed them mercilessly.

Knowing that they had the upper hand, the players were excited.

The amateurs, who had never joined a large-scale battle before, were especially elated. They had previously watched videos of the Beiqi Army’s expeditions, but this was their first time participating in one.

“Roar!”

At that moment, the evil, which was hidden in the Zombie Energy Pillar, let out an angry howl, causing the Zombie Energy Pillar to shudder. Unnumbered evil spirits appeared above the players before they rained down behind them.

Upon witnessing this scene, panic was immediately plastered on Wu Guoyi’s face before he shouted into the live chat channel.

“Assassins, please return to take care of the evil spirits. Meanwhile, mages, please stay vigilant.”

The mages were busy dodging the raining evil spirits. In the meantime, some Five Elements Warlocks, knowing that they could never run away, quickly activated the gold state. Meanwhile, the assassins promptly acted upon Wu Guoyi’s command and rushed to the back of the array.

Under Wu Guoyi’s lead, the troop of players continued to amend their military tactic. They wiped out the evil spirits at the back of the array before they returned to being aggressive and focused on attacking their enemies.

At that moment, a gigantic silhouette escaped the Zombie Energy Pillar and soared into the sky before it rushed toward the troop of players.

“Everyone, stay vigilant! The Ghost General is here! Brace yourselves!”

Boom!

Immediately after the Evil Ghost General appeared, the array, which was formed by the warriors, was disrupted. Many of the players were killed.

Yet, the players did not fret. Once again, they gathered together and charged toward their enemy.

The players had even defeated Cha Na who was an elite Ghost General. Therefore, they were not afraid of the evil spirit, who was merely a beginner among the Ghost Generals.

All of a sudden, they began to attack the Evil Ghost General heedlessly, assaulting him with overwhelming energy and turning it into a light man.

The Evil Ghost General could not endure such a fierce attack for more than five minutes before it nervously escaped the crowd and returned to the Zombie Energy Pillar.

The players were extremely satisfied by the outcome of their raid.

Their joy lasted for merely a few seconds before the Evil Ghost General, once again, escaped from the Zombie Energy Pillar and soared into the sky before it lunged toward the players.

The players were astonished to discover that the wounds on the Evil Ghost General had completely healed.

“Fuck. That’s cheating! How can it heal just by inhaling two breaths of Zombie Energy?”

“I’m going to report this! This is unfathomable!”

“I think we should destroy the Zombie Energy Pillar first. Otherwise, we would never be able to kill all the monsters. If we aren’t quick enough to kill them, they will just revive again.”

When the players were discussing their strategy, they attacked the Evil Ghost General with their respective skills.

Similarly, the Evil Ghost General did not last for more than a few minutes before he hastily returned to Zombie Energy Pillar to recuperate again. The players were significantly troubled. They reckoned the Evil Ghost General was cheating.

They forced the Evil Ghost General back to the Zombie Energy Pillar again. However, unlike the previous times, the Evil Ghost General did not rush back into action. Instead, it stayed within the Zombie Energy Pillar as it howled to the sky.

The players seized the opportunity to get closer to the Zombie Energy Pillar.

They had finally learned the fact that, only by destroying the Zombie Energy Pillar, they could remove the Evil Ghost General’s source of healing. Then, they could regain the upper hand in the battle again.

At that moment, two black meteors struck across the sky and landed beside the Zombie Energy Pillar. Then, two puffs of black smoke signals rose into the sky, forming two huge new Zombie Energy Pillars.

The players were astounded as they saw innumerable evil spirits fall from the top of the Zombie Energy Pillars. Then, two Evil Ghost Generals materialized from their respective Zombie Energy Pillars.

“Fuck!”

Upon witnessing the scene, Wu Guoyi cursed instinctively.

According to their stratagems, they were supposed to attack their enemy in sequence. However, the players were caught off guard by the evil spirits’ unusual retaliation that went beyond their expectations.

Three novices of Evil Ghost Generals were as powerful as an entire Evil Troop. This put Wu Guoyi in a critical situation.

After he reconsidered the situation, Wu Guoyi thought it was necessary to amend their strategy. Otherwise, the players would soon be worn out, having to fight against Evil Ghost Generals, who had a stronger healing power.

“Everyone, we’ll execute Plan B! The construction war!”

Upon receiving Wu Guoyi’s command, the warriors moved forward, while the mages and assassins stopped in their tracks. They took out the mahogany hut from their personal channel and tossed it to the ground. Immediately, many mahogany huts materialized behind them.

“Summon the Door God!”

Many shadows appeared in the sky above the mahogany huts as the players slowly retreated.

“Warriors, stay behind the hut and summon your mahogany huts as well.”

The warriors followed Wu Guoyi’s order and promptly retired.

The formation was instantly ruined before the evil spirits howled as they pounced toward the troop.

Yet, the Door God struck an attack by throwing one after another ball of energy toward the evil spirits, who were approaching the players, and sent them flying.

The warriors, who were retiring, quickly summoned their mahogany huts to expand their defensive formation.

This was the players’ last resort to fight evil — the construction war!

This was suggested by a professional player when they were discussing how to confront the evil spirits.

The Door God summoned by the mahogany huts had the strength to suppress the evils. Meanwhile, the mahogany huts were unyielding and were able to endure the attack of the evil spirits. Stationing Door Gods at the frontline as their first defense, with the players releasing their strengths at the back, they would certainly become an impregnable and sturdy opponent.

At that moment, that one professional player’s idea was proven useful in actual combat.

Many Door Gods formed a blockade and stopped the flock of evil spirits at the periphery. There was no way the spirits could break the barrier formed by the Door Gods.
