Chapter 498: Gambler, Another Massacre, You’re Too Despicable!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Especially when the constant notifications of units being killed came in, but there wasn’t a single message of killing the enemy, that was truly terrifying.
From the start of the battle until now, they still didn’t know the names of the enemy’s units!
A young player with bloodshot eyes fell to the ground, his face pale.
Because his Barbarian hero and all the other Forest Barbarians had been wiped out, a total of 901 blood-red system notifications filled the interface.
These were his strongest forces, and he had spent countless resources and effort to acquire them, and now they were all gone!?
Not only the Forest Barbarians, but the armies of other players had also suffered heavy losses, and at this moment, their faces were extremely grim, and their bodies were trembling.
Damn it, how strong were the enemies!?
Now, the accumulated casualties were almost one-third of the entire army, which amounted to a total of six to seven thousand units, enough to fill a football field when lined up!
With such a large number of troops, one could even land a few hits on a dragon, right? Despite the significant casualties, not a single enemy soldier has been eliminated. It’s almost like a ridiculous joke, isn’t it?
“This is not a bounty mission; it’s a suicide mission!”
“You’re right; my army has already lost half its strength. If we keep losing like this, it’s probably going to be a total wipeout. I’m done with this!”
Someone angrily cursed, and anyone would have their mentality shattered after losing so many units without gaining anything.
Seeing the continuous screams coming from the abandoned town, most people began to consider retreating.
They were not part of the large and powerful guilds. The soldiers they had brought with them accounted for nearly seventy to eighty percent of their forces. Once they lost them all here, it would truly be game over, and months of effort would go up in smoke.
“We can’t retreat!”
A fierce roar stopped the players who wanted to leave with their armies, and they looked at the silent Wu Lun in surprise, feeling a bit startled.
They saw that his once clear and handsome face was now twisted like a demon, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and he had lost his previous composure and arrogance.
After a moment’s thought, a hint of pity appeared in their eyes.
Wu Lun sent a werewolf unit to execute a flanking assault on both sides. Given the total annihilation of the Forest Barbarians, it was probable that the werewolves, including a hero unit of Green Elite-Tier, experienced a similar outcome.
With such a significant loss, it was no wonder he had become like this.
“Wu Lun, although it’s hard to accept, it’s almost impossible for us to continue fighting. Stopping now would allow us to limit our losses…”
“No!” Wu Lun forcibly suppressed the overwhelming negative emotions in his heart, and his eyes cleared slightly. “The greater the loss, the more we need to go all-in with our chips!”
“It’s not just my Werewolf unit; your units have probably suffered heavy casualties as well. If we don’t take down Ji Chen, this enormous loss will be in vain, and we won’t gain anything!
We came all the way here; are we just going to die and go back empty-handed!?
Moreover, do you dare to enter the town and bring out your units?”
Upon hearing this, the other players hesitated.
They had never imagined that they would be in this situation, and they hadn’t thought about establishing wartime communication methods either.
Seeing that the entire abandoned town, and even the entire peninsula, was shrouded in fog, like the mouth of a white demon devouring everyone, they were genuinely afraid to enter.
To be honest, most of them were physically weak lords, and they really didn’t dare to go in.
Seeing their hesitation, Wu Lun, as if pushing all his remaining chips onto the gambling table, spoke with the desperation of a desperate gambler, his throat hoarse.
“We have no choice! 1 propose to put all our remaining forces into this battle. Either we all perish or we kill Ji Chen and claim the bounty, only then can we make up for our losses and even go further!
Even if the enemy is a demon… we’ll make sure to squeeze the life out of them!!
The enemy’s main force must have been engaged by the large army, so we’ll go around the flat beach from the shore and head straight for the heart of the matter!”
As long as we capture the enemy lord, everything will turn for the better!”
The players stared in astonishment at the somewhat crazed Wu Lun, their minds wavering.
Indeed, they still had a portion of their forces that hadn’t been deployed due to previous allocations. If they could truly succeed in a surprise attack to capture the enemy lord as Wu Lun described, it could change everything…
At this moment, a voice, extremely gloomy and with a touch of madness, spoke up.
“I agree with your proposal. I’m willing to commit the remaining four teams of a hundred men!
Today, it’s either Ji Chen dies, or we perish!”
The player who spoke was the one who had sent the Forest Barbarians, and he was the only one whose entire force had been wiped out.
In the hands of that Barbarian chieftain, there was even his only 3-star artifact!
In terms of sunk costs, he suffered the most loss!
Seeing his immediate response, Wu Lun seized the opportunity, “I’m also sending out all eight hundred-man squads of the remaining third-tier units!”
With the strongest two players showing their determination, the others quickly gained some confidence and voiced their agreement.
“I’m in too, I don’t believe we can’t kill that player!”
“Damn it, all in! Either we get rich or we lose everything!”
However, one of the players hesitated and seemed tempted but ultimately shook his head, saying, “I’ll pass, 1 don’t want this bounty..”
