Zhan Long Chapter 1196: Trapped

Chapter 1196: Trapped

"What?"

Old K could only question as the Lamp Zombie started to move. It waved the lamp at Old K and a ball of furry light actually flew out. That was... Spirit Flower Bug!

"Peng!"

Old K stood stunned on the spot and he was filled with shock. In truth, none of us expected that the Lamp Zombie actually had a Spirit Flower Bug in its lamp!

We had learned how strong the Spirit Flower Bugs were over at Moon City. Now that we saw it again, we felt slightly shocked.

...

"Heal!"

I raised my hand to heal Old K and charged toward that Lamp Zombie. At the same time, I said loudly, "Qing Qian tell everyone in the channel that Lamp Zombies have sp.a.w.ned in the forest. Their lamps might have more than one Spirit Flower Bug so don't be careless if not we will all die here!"

Yue Qing Qian nodded, "Yes!"

I used Strength of a Thousand Men on the Lamp Zombie and his health dropped really quickly. In a blink of an eye, he was down to 20%. But he waved his lamp once more and it lit up. As expected, there was another Spirit Flower Bug. Not only that, the Lamp Zombie started to summon and there were sad cries from all about. More zombies crawled out from the ground. These were t.i.tan Tier monsters and seven were summoned. Their health was all around a million.

"d.a.m.n, so problematic." I couldn't help but frown. These Lamp Zombies could not only fight hand to hand but they had Spirit Flower Bugs to a.s.sist them. They could also summon seven other zombies to help them. Even I found it hard to handle much less others.

Lin Wan Er landed while saying, "Darling Duck, can you try to purify those that he summoned?"

Darling Duck was a new Zhan Long Hall member. She raised her hand to use Purify. In the end, six of the seven zombies were purified. Spirit Flower Bugs were raised in the lamp so that couldn't be purified.

Yue Qing Qian announced in the channel that the summoned zombies could be purified.

...

The first Lamp Zombie was dealt by us quickly and it even dropped bracers. More and more players exclaimed and it was obvious that a second Lamp Zombie had appeared. There were more and more cries and the entire Shura Forest was covered in cries.

"Sha sha..."

The second and third Lamp Zombie appeared behind me. Two more sp.a.w.ned five meters further. These things had a really dense sp.a.w.n. Mages started to send Fireball Spells over. The entire forest was lit up. The Mages that didn't know how to save on mana looked like they were about to burn the entire forest.

The Lamp Zombie's attack wasn't too terrifying and very rarely would players get insta killed. The scary thing was their Spirit Flower Bugs. The explosion of the Spirit Flower Bugs in their lamp was just too terrifying and even I would lose 170 thousand from it. Moreover, they could summon one every 20 seconds. No matter whether or not the first was killed they would summon it and could summon 5 Spirit Flower Bugs to roam around them.

This formed a terrifying scene. As long as you triggered a Lamp Zombie into battle they would continue to summon. The slower you killed them the more they would summon. The cycle would repeat and that caused many parties to get blown up while there would be Lamp Zombies with five Spirit Flower Bugs in their lamp.

If other players triggered it, the 5 would explode and even G.o.ds wouldn't be able to save you.

"Peng peng peng..."

The explosions made one's heart feel cold. Although the Lamp Zombies weren't ambushing us here but we paid a heavy price to kill them.

Very quickly, Xue Rou returned with her Energy Returning Sword and said, "Boss, lead the Furnace G.o.d Cavalry to break out. We are just 10 minutes away. We can leave at their speed. We aren't able to defend this Shura Forest!"

"We can't?"

"En, look over there!" Xue Rou pointed and around 200+ Lamp Zombies were charging at us. Around there were many Spirit Flower Bugs. d.a.m.n, where did they come from? Were the players behind us all killed? That was... Flying Dragon's formation?

Thinking about it, it was possible that Flying Dragon got wiped out.

"Let's go!"

I ordered and the Furnace G.o.d Cavalry pushed forwards. At the same time, we covered the ranged and support players. But there were too many of us and the forest was already in chaos so many people would definitely die here. No choice, we underestimated our opponent and entered without understanding the map. We deserved to take losses.

...

When we charged out of the forest, a bunch of Lamp Zombies was chasing us. Luckily their movement speed wasn't quick enough if not we would all get wiped.

In the distance, Legend, Hero Mound and Prague charged out of the forest. They panted and their faces were ashen white. Looking at their numbers we knew that they lost at least 60% of the members in the forest.

Moreover, this was without them killing many monsters.

Looking at the dense group of Lamp Zombies crying out there, I didn't want to take revenge. They had Spirit Flower Bugs protecting them and could summon zombies so I definitely couldn't take them down.

I looked behind and Shura Mountain was there. This was the only path for us.

...

Soaring Dragon, w.a.n.g Zecheng, Rumor were anxious and brought people up the mountain, afraid that others would s.n.a.t.c.h their boss. I told Li Mu, w.a.n.g Jian and Xue Rou to receive the Zhan Long players that had gotten lost. We also waited for those brothers that were still trying to escape. Leave no man behind, that was how it was supposed to be.

After waiting for close to an hour, 8000+ of us that escaped and 2000+ that managed to climb out. We gathered close to 11000 people. Although the Lamp Zombies were strong but Zhan Long didn't suffer many losses. Most of the players that died were those who panicked and knocked into the zombies. If one was calm enough, one wouldn't have to die.

Hero Mound was also waiting for the players that were scattered in the forest. Q-Sword held his sword and his face was green.

A few minutes later, he brought Tang Qi, Tang Gu, Sword Tears etc over, "Xiao Yao, latest news."

"What happened?"

"The Western Alliance led by Sky Rose sent 3 million people into the Death Plains and wanted to find Apocalypse Storm Leila. But they failed and were ambushed. Leila led the way and another Lord Boss appeared. She led 200 thousand cavalries to charge about. The Western Allliance lost close to 2 million people there and maybe in the few hours Sky Rose would have to announce their retreat."

"Who was the Boss that led the cavalries?" I asked.

Q-Sword smiled, "I heard it was Pearl. She wore a mantle so they couldn't see her face but no one could confirm that it wasn't her. But this Pearl was good at thunder and she could use thunder to punish her opponent. That thunder would leave a large area of scorched land."

He paused, "To command the Hybrid Demon to ambush players, such an AI shouldn't be an NPC. Would it be Clear Black Eyes?"

"Definitely not."

I shook my head, "Clear Black Eyes just joined their system and her status is too low. She might not even be comparable to a Lord's guard. It must be the newly promoted general."

Q-Sword said, "En, after entering the Hybrid Demon Territory, I feel that we have fallen into a trap. Everything is not under our control."

I nodded, "I agree."

"What should we do next?"

"Attack, no choice. The Lamp Zombies have cut off our way back. Apart from that, even Tian Ling City's bridge has been broken."

Q-Sword sighed, "Feels like we are in despair."

"Not yet. Let's prepare to head out."

I turned around and left, leaving Q-Sword stunned at the spot.

...

Li Mu, w.a.n.g Jian and Xue Rou had prepared the Zhan Long members. 11000 members were reformed and we were going to head out. We weren't familiar with the area, boss and monsters so we had to rely on our coordination. If not, we would have no chance here at all.

"Head out!"

I rode the little dragon daughter into the sky. This time I had to keep my height to warn and a.s.sist the team. Shura Mountain was quite flat but it got steeper and steeper. Before the Zhan Long members could climb much we were disturbed. First was the Scavengers and Two-winged Demons,

Suddenly we heard cries from above. Many Flying Dragon players were collapsing. Drunken Spear held his spear and rode his wind dragon above. He shouted, "Calm down, it is just a small area collapsing. Don't panic if not the Demon Hall Cavalry will crush us!"

Unfortunately, he couldn't calm them down.

Shortly after, Run like Flames and Rising Sun like Blood's crushed troops surged down from above. This stunned Hero Mound and Zhan Long. Should we retreat or continue forwards?

I didn't know what happened above so I ordered, "Stop and defend the spot!"

No matter what, we had to defend first.
