Monsters Running Wild

"Erm, aren't the Gnolls the strongest? Thus, as the saying goes, able people should do more work. Naturally, the hardest mission should be given to the most powerful person to complete. Although it's a little harder to attack the shrine, the Reputation obtained would probably also be higher."

"F*ck, do you think I'm an idiot like Hogg, who would do anything if flattered? I'm definitely not going to attack the shrine, let those who want to do it, do it." Derek instantly refused the job.

Xiao Yu revealed an awkward expression and looked towards Blake Rhode. "How about Boss Blake be responsible for attacking the shrine?"

Blake Rhode sneered and shook his head. "Well, since Boss Eric is the initiator of this event, then such a good opportunity to show off should naturally be left for Boss Eric to complete."

"Yes, yes, yes, I see that the most suitable one to attack the shrine is Boss Eric!" Derek saw that someone was supporting him, so he instantly focused on turning Xiao Yu into the one attacking the shrine. As he spoke, he even kicked Golden Tooth beside him, and Golden Tooth also helped him. "That's right, that's right, this mission should be completed by Boss Eric."

Xiao Yu looked like he was caught between laughter and tears as he had enmeshed in a web of his own spinning. Derek saw Xiao Yu's expression, so he instantly smiled coldly. "I got you. You can't make any more excuses, can you?"

Although Xiao Yu seemed like he was put on a spot, he was secretly laughing in his heart. "As expected, just your simpleton way of thinking. How could you escape from my scheme?"

Xiao Yu had wanted to be the one attacking the shrine from the start, but he was afraid that others would see through what he was aiming for. Thus, he specially arranged for others to attack the shrine and gave himself something that looked relatively easy and had much to benefit. As expected, those guys did not accept such an arrangement and instead made him the one to attack the shrine. "Hehe, then I'll help myself to attacking the shrine."

Xiao Yu hesitated for quite a while before revealing an expression as if he had steeled his heart. "Alright then, I can be the one responsible for attacking the shrine, but I'll need to get some help from all of you by giving me some of your troops, since the Archdruid is not easy to be dealt with."

"Hmm, I can lend you some troops, but not too many."

"I don't need too many." Xiao Yu struck while the iron was hot. "Boss Blake, I just need to borrow two Difia Healers from your underlings. Boss Derek, I just need to borrow four Kobold Diviners from you and that's it."

There were a few special units in each Monster Force. The Difia Healer and Kobold Diviner that Xiao Yu had requested were both a type of special unit.

Difia Healer was one of the few monsters that could use healing spells, while Kobold Diviners could release fireballs. They were both special monsters that had mana bars.

Blake Rhode and Derek exchanged looks and then nodded. "Alright, it's decided, then."

Xiao Yu still did not seem to have much confidence. "Also, if I still can't succeed with this, then remember to come help me."

"Don't worry, we won't forget you," said the few Bosses as they patted their chests. But what they thought in their minds was "Who the heck would care about you? Just go and die."

In such an infighting atmosphere, the plan for attacking Night Whisper Village was confirmed.

"Alright, then let's begin." The few monster Bosses returned to their own forces. Then, with the horn sound from the Gnoll Trumpeter, the army of monsters charged towards Night Whisper Forest like a surge of tide.

A few minutes later, the army arrived at the gate. Naturally, with so many monsters, the guards of the village had discovered them, so the tree branches of the two Thorn Trees had been let down, blocking the entrance of Night Whisper Village. The few Night Elf Archers even raised their bows and fired arrows towards the monsters below. It was impossible for the arrows to miss with the immense number of monsters, so in the blink of an eye, a few were already shot to death. However, such a situation was already expected by Xiao Yu.

"All archers gather firepower and attack the guards on the tree towers. Fire!"

With the order, the arrows flew towards the guards like a sky full of locusts.

Although the accuracy rate was way too low, there were way too many archers—almost 100 of them. So once the countless arrows were released, in the blink of an eye, the few Night Elf Archers were shot until they were like porcupines.

"Fireballs and Fire Arrows get ready, aim at the door. Fire!" With another command, the ones attacking this time were the Kobold Diviners, Diviner Firestarters, Xiao Yu, and the Fire Element summoned by Xiao Yu. All kinds of Fireballs and Fire Arrows landed on the thorny gate like rain. In the blink of an eye, the durability of the door full of thorns was burnt to zero, turning into a pile of ashes.

Everyone was already extremely eager, and they all charged into the village. Those few Night Elves behind the gate did not even have the time to react before they were killed by the monsters surging in.

"Good job, everyone. Charge, don't stop, don't stop!"

Xiao Yu was excited in his heart. It looked like his plan was going quite smoothly.

However, before charging in very far, the team was blocked by three huge Ancient Trees. Beforehand, when they were scouting, the names of these three Ancient Trees were all green, thus showing that they were friendly units, so they did not look all that frightening. But now they were releasing a violent aura. Their huge bodies let out cackling sounds as they moved and looked fearsome. They scared those monsters in front so much that they instinctively stopped.

"Everyone, don't panic. Everyone that can use fire attacks, gather in front."

In the blink of an eye, the Difia Firestarters, the Kobold Diviners, Xiao Yu, and his Fire Element were standing in a row.

"Gather fire on that Ancient Tree of War! Attack!"

In an instant, all kinds of Fireballs and Fire Arrows were fired, filling the air. Flame Missiles were released continuously as Xiao Yu shouted. Although that Ancient Tree of War was huge, trees were afraid of fire, so in the blink of an eye, it started burning with a blazing fire. Its HP started dropping crazily. Although its HP was as high as 3,000, it would not be able to last long.

At that moment, those two Ancient Tree Guardians also picked up boulders and threw towards Xiao Yu's side. Boulder Toss was an AOE attack, so it instantly smashed three to four Kobold Diviners and four to five Goblin Scouts.

"F*ck, such a high attack. No, we cannot wait anymore, so, everyone, attack!" The few monster Bosses shouted one after the other and their underlings instantly flocked towards the two Ancient Tree Guardians while bypassing the Ancient Tree of War, which was burned to ashes.

The two Ancient Tree Guardians threw another few boulders and killed a few unlucky monsters, but then they were swarmed by monsters afterwards.

They were slashed by swords and chopped by axes. In the end, the two Ancient Tree Guardians were unable to deal with such a huge number of monsters, so after struggling and stomping tens of monsters to death, those two huge Ancient Tree Guardians crashed down with a loud thud. Then they were instantly sliced into shredded wood.

"Hahaha, this is too awesome, this feels too good. This is what a game should be. Everyone, attack according to the plan!" exclaimed the Gnoll Derek with excitement. After playing the Monster Mode for such a long time and being killed by the Adventurers so many times, he could finally hold his head high for once.

Blake Rhode's eyes were gleaming and he no longer looked like an expert, while Death Claw and his few friends were even screaming in excitement. For a moment, all the monsters were running wild.

Without those few Ancient Trees stopping them, the army of monsters instantly had no obstacles, so they surged into Night Whisper Village like a tide. The monsters first encountered the Civilian players who were onlookers. One should know that those civilian players had no battle skills at all and only 100 basic HP—they were nothing before the monsters' attacks. It was better for those that had activated the Battle Exempt Service, as everything would automatically be converted into the background and no attacks could touch them. Not only would they not receive any attacks, they could also watch a war film for free on location. Being able to watch such a show was really awesome.

As for those that did not activate the Battle Exempt Service, they met tragedy as they were instantly chopped into pieces, their heads being sliced off. Although there was no pain system for Civilian players, physical trauma would most likely be left on them.

"Ahhhh, all these disgusting couples, coming to PDA (Public Display of Affection) here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping. All die, die, die!" Derek had likely accumulated much resentment from not being able to have a girlfriend, so he purposely picked out the couples and killed them. It was a pity that this game had no r*pe system, or who knows what he might do. However, even so, he looked extremely frightening from being filled with blood as he chopped those couples.

Blake Rhode, on the other hand, purposely went to kill the Night Elf Guards or Adventurers that came to help. Those were all worth Reputation Points!

As for the Wild Beasts, they had disappeared since the army had entered the village. Who knew where they had gone to bite people.

However, in Xiao Yu's mind, he did not join in the madness of this slaughter. He still remembered the reason why he was attacking Night Whisper Village.
