139: Chapter 139: Reinforcents Arrive 139: Chapter 139: Reinforcents Arrive Out of avarice, despite having identified Zhou Tian’s identity and feeling so apprehension towards his tactics, the players eventually decided to take a gamble.
Hence, right after Zhou Tian killed the spell-casting player, the other players imdiately broke ranks towards Zhou Tian’s position.
In the face of these players’ attacks, Zhou Tian, aside from commanding his Beastn to resist fiercely, could only constantly urge the distant Beastman army to speed up.
The guards Zhou Tian had next to him were not the most formidable creatures under his command but were strong enough such that defending Zhou Tian from powerful adversaries shouldn’t be a problem.
However, because the players who ca to confront him this ti were transferred from the higher regions, where the combat power is of a completely different caliber, other than Zhou Tian using his own abilities to covertly kill a mage at the outset, his Beastman minions did not see any battle success subsequently.
As a result, in sheer disparity of strength, even though Zhou Tian’s Beastn were fighting to death on his orders, they could only watch helplessly as their comrades fell one by one before their eyes.
In the end, before Zhou Tian’s Beastman army ca to their rescue, a majority of his beastn fell into the hands of the players.
Without the protection of their beastn, Zhou Tian was unable to avoid the players.
Consequently, when the players finally caught sight of Zhou Tian, though they hadn’t given him any opportunities to escape, as soon as they approached him, they launched an imdiate attack.
After several swordsn inflicted injuries on Zhou Tian with multiple strikes of Sword Qi, they swiftly positioned themselves around Zhou Tian, closing off his escape routes.
After Zhou Tian’s escape routes were cut off, several players wasted no ti in launching a sequence of skill-based attacks towards him.
The sight of energy-ford creatures rushing at Zhou Tian was daunting—the mont these energies passed through Zhou Tian, he lost so of his HP.
Fortunately, Zhou Tian had previously used the Stone Armor skill to increase his defense; otherwise, he would have seriously doubted whether he could withstand that series of attacks.
However, Zhou Tian had just temporarily fended off those players’ attacks.
Given his situation, if nothing changed, it was inevitable that Zhou Tian would eventually et his death at their hands.
Perhaps, sensing that Zhou Tian’s strength was waning, the players were excited, believing that they would soon be able to kill Zhou Tian and receive a generous reward.
Consequently, their attacks against Zhou Tian intensified.
As a result of the players’ unceasing onslaught, Zhou Tian found himself in a grave predicant.
He tried to resist as best as possible, but he was unable to withstand their joint attack, resulting in his HP decreasing significantly every second.
It was probably a matter of minutes before Zhou Tian would et his death at the hands of those players.
But Zhou Tian was not going to sit still and allow the players to kill him.
As a result, the mont his HP reached only a third of its original value, he snapped.
In what seed like a final desperate act, he summoned a Water Demon to help him fend off the players’ attacks, and it resulted in a series of counter-attacks.
“Extre Freezing Wave!”
“Tornado Storm!”
“Divine Thunder!”
A chill streak started things off, freezing several players next to Zhou Tian on the spot.
Then, during this period of inaction among the players, a tornado suddenly materialized in front of Zhou Tian.
Accompanied by the tornado’s movent, so players in front of Zhou Tian felt the brunt of his skill attack.
The Tornado Storm attack didn’t manage to kill off all of the players in front of him.
But given the storm’s intensity, Zhou Tian’s frontal opponents had still lost a considerable amount of blood, and albeit not fatal, it still had substantial impact on them.
After several players were injured, Zhou Tian started with a Divine Thunder attack which killed a warrior, then rushed to face the other players, launching a series of attacks on them.
As a result of the Extre Freezing Wave, the players fighting Zhou Tian were all in a frozen state, their actions significantly slowed, naturally, they were unable to help their compatriots.
The players who bore Zhou Tian’s attack could only defend against it with their own abilities.
If they were able to block Zhou Tian’s attack, they could survive; however, if they couldn’t, they would certainly die.
Clearly, although Zhou Tian was outnumbered by the players, in the state of these players being in poor condition with not much HP left, Zhou Tian could still take them down without a problem.
Therefore, beneath Zhou Tian’s full attack, the injured players quickly fell under his double hamrs.
“Damn you!” The players, who had seen victory so close, beca enraged when several people died under Zhou Tian’s resistance.
Insulting Zhou Tian and with bodies still sowhat stiff, they moved closer to Zhou Tian’s position.
It seed like they wanted to surround and kill him.
However, when they were ready to surround Zhou Tian again, he didn’t give them the chance.
Though Zhou Tian’s previous performance seed desperate, these players didn’t understand that Zhou Tian’s fierce fight was not a death row rebellion.
Zhou Tian was the lord of the Beastman Territory.
Unless the players slowly wore him out, Zhou Tian wouldn’t launch a reckless attack risking his life to forgo the hope of surviving.
Hence, Zhou Tian’s performance was solely due to one reason – his minions, the Beastman Army, had rushed to his assistance.
Originally, according to Zhou Tian’s plan, he was ant to kill a few players and then escape.
With the protection of his army, it wouldn’t be difficult for Zhou Tian to force the players to retreat.
However, when Zhou Tian had already paved his way to escape, due to a special reason, he changed his idea.
When Zhou Tian faced the threat of these players, his only goal was to survive.
He wasn’t considering any other factors at that mont.
But in the process of striving to live, he forgot to consider one thing.
Those players indeed posed a huge threat to Zhou Tian, but the higher their levels were, the more experience and rit Zhou Tian could gain from killing them.
Not to ntion the experience Zhou Tian had accumulated earlier, even the experience he got from killing several advanced players wasn’t a small sum.
As a result, when Zhou Tian succeeded in killing several of them in succession, he suddenly received a level-up notification as he was about to retreat.
If he followed his original plan, to directly attack the encirclent of those players now, once he could join his Beastman Army, given the strength of the player’s team, they would no longer pose a threat to Zhou Tian.
However, if Zhou Tian acted according to his strategy, although he could save his own life, it would be quite difficult to keep those players behind.
Zhou Tian’s Beastn were rushing to his rescue, not to kill the enemy.
Within such a short ti, it was a struggle for Zhou Tian’s Beastman Army to arrive, and they certainly couldn’t make other preparations.
Thus, if those players decided to retreat when they saw the situation turn unfavorable, Zhou Tian really wouldn’t have an opportunity to keep them around.
If it was from the beginning, Zhou Tian naturally would not have other thoughts.
Facing the threat of those players, as long as he could save his own life, that would suffice.
For the rest, he would not have asked for much more.
However, since Zhou Tian has now acquired enough experience to level up again, he undoubtedly beca more ambitious.
Anyway, his army had rushed to him.
As far as Zhou Tian was concerned, his period of danger had passed.
Even if the situation changed drastically, the worst-case scenario would be to let the players go.
As far as Zhou Tian was concerned, he was not in any danger.
Under such circumstances, Zhou Tian had the idea of stopping all the players from leaving.
Originally, Zhou Tian didn’t have the ability to stop the players, but now as long as he dared to take a bit of a risk, capturing those players wouldn’t be a problem.
