Chapter 212 - Surge of the Turquoise Tide
Riverbed of the Robin River.
Jiang Feng had shrunk his body and did not dare to move when he was next to the Frost Dragon, fearing that he would awaken it.
As he floated in the water, he stared at the Donghuang Bell fragment that was on the Frost Dragon. His mind kept on calculating the steps that he needed to take to steal the Donghuang Bell fragment.
Perhaps, he could try using Transmute Monster to fuse with it. What if he got lucky.
As the thought crossed his mind, he felt that he could give it a try.
“Huff… I shouldn’t be too fearful of this. Let’s do it!”
He took a deep breath then Blinked forward, and appeared where the Donghuang Bell fragment was at.
“Sky-Stealing Hand!”
With his order, his army of 100,000 headed toward the 60,000 monsters belonging to the Ancient City.
The army of 100,000 was clearly trained.
The warriors were the ones being the spearhead of the army. Next, there were the Summoners, the Priests, the Gunners, the Priests, the Archers, the Wizards, and the Priests. Between each layer of different classes was a layer of priests, to cover for the HP of the players.
All of the players had pets with them. And there was even a group of flyers in the air to help with the battle.
As for the assassins, they were the skirmishers that wandered around the army like ghosts.
As they marched, the scene was very impressive.
***
The Ancient City was not bad at all.
Ling Feiyu rode on her Unicorn. She held the Jewel of the Snow Soul in her hand, and raised it high in the sky and began to lay down orders for the battle with a majestic aura and a cold, calm look on her face.
“Team A, Steel-Haired Pigs to the front. Lightning Tigers, to the flanks. Spikes Apes, harass. Territory Kings, lead your own troops and surround them from the sides. Prioritize on eliminating the enemies between the layers!”
As she waved, the monster army began to move as one.
In a short while, many different and interesting formations began to form on the battlefield.
As the Shifter Hierophant, Ling Feiyu was also their chief strategist and that was a heavy burden on her shoulders as well. As they were waiting, she began to flip through the books on military stratagems that she had read during her high school years and created formations that would be suitable for the monsters.
The formations were not about killing the enemies. Their attacks were meant to harass, and their defenses were meant to prevent casualties. The attacks and defense were all about buying enough time for Jiang Feng to return.
Ding, Ding…
Xiao Yatou sat cross-legged on a Winged Tiger and began to play the Fuxi Zither that was lying quietly on her legs. She played her music using the two strings on the zither, and its melody moved the hearts of its listener.
For almost one month, Ling Feiyu and Mu Xi had helped her finish her quest and found one of the strings for the zither.
And thanks to the second string, she could play a melody, and it was a melody that was very well-known.
Surge of the Turquoise Tide.
As soon as the music was played, musical notes began to appear in the sky and fell to the monsters that were within 20 meters. Next, those monsters began to emit red light, and they roared as if they were being energized.
Mu Xi rode on a Lightning Hawk and pointed his sword toward the Myth Group army, “Attack!”
“Roar!”
As per Mu Xi’s order, all the monsters released a unified roar and began to charge. Their giant bodies stampeded the ground to the point where it was quaking.

“Why do I feel like this is even more exciting than the Siege of the Ancient City? Who is that girl? When she played “Surge of the Turquoise Tide”, she made me excited!” When all the players saw what happened, they were shocked as all eyes were on Xiao Yatou.
