Chapter 649 - V57C4P1 – The Great War

V57C4P1 – The Great War

The elites organized separately within the Hermes Guild, the guild members that signed up to use the Brazier of Sacrifice were gathered in Yellowy Square.

“Brazier of Sacrifice, I will offer 50 levels and 10,000 health points. Grant me strength!”

“Brazier of Sacrifice·····.”

“Brazier·····”

…

The Hermes guild members were enveloped with flourishing fire.

The Brazier of Sacrifice provided them with immense power!

The main forces of the Hermes Guild over level 500 were burning away their levels and health points.

“My body is light. It feels like a feather but overwhelmingly powerful.”

“I can’t get used to this. I’m just walking but it’s so much quicker than before. I wonder how my skills will turn out?”

“By the level discrepancy, I would say we got about six times stronger.”

“This means we can muster a head-on charge against the dragon. I can put up a good fight right now.”

The players who used the brazier made their pledge of determination.

Burning 50 levels was not an easy decision even for these players.

Regardless of victory or defeat, the losses were final. Therefore they had to take the dragon down.

“Still, we should still be careful. The dragon’s magic is not something you can tank.”

“I’m sure it will be alright as long as it’s not a direct hit.”

“I’m a warrior, so I would be able to withstand physical attacks.”

The giant knight Boemong led them.

“We will wait. As you all know already, we will be sent in once Kaybern’s dark magic is down.”

10,000 elites warmed up lightly as they waited to be fielded.

“Wear this.”

The Mapan merchants arrived and laid down some equipment.

They were items from Kaybern’s lair that could be worn by humans over level 800!

“Are you giving them to us?”

“No. You must return them once the battle is over. Here. You must sign the lease paper. If you want to rent them again, please call the Mapan merchant council.”

“You can borrow equipment?”

“They are not free. They have set prices.”

The Hermes Guild members were amazed with the Mapan equipment.

Some of them were over the level restriction of 900, and what was most popular were the weapons.

All warriors had the thirst for the most powerful weapon with the highest attack damage.

Meanwhile, Kaybern’s dark magic activated near the Bingryeong Square.

– Mirror of Fate!

“Alright, let’s get going. It’s our time to fight.”

“Move out!”

***

Mirror of Fate.

The ultimate dark magic spell that returns the cumulative damage taken over the last 10 minutes and reflects it against all enemies near the caster!

The countless Hermes Guild members in battle turned grey and dissipated all at once.

Just moments after, Kaybern activated a life replenishing spell as expected.

– Life Siphon of the Dead!

Kaybern absorbed the health points of everyone who died in battle. From every corner of Morata, ash-like streams of aura surged and were absorbed by the dragon’s body.

The body rich in wounds recovered unbelievably quickly and the fractured scales were restored; such a perfect recovery that instilled despair in the players who had been fighting valiantly until that moment.

– Humans, bow down before my greatness!

Kaybern roared with vigor.

The absolute power of dark magic was unexplainable with the standards of typical magic.

The Black Dragon possessed both attack power and an absurd recovery speed, making it even more difficult of a creature to hunt.

However, the Hermes Guild too had been waiting for this moment.

“You all have bided your time well. Now is the time for the real fight.”

Bard Ray shouted. Then the Hermes Guild members responded and raised their weapons high.

– The dragon will meet its end by our hands!

The guild members that were hiding inside the buildings began bolting out.

The fighting power in the early stages were average level within the guild. They displayed fabulous skills but still had more in the kit.

Many players had already died in the great city of Morata.

The dragon was capable of absorbing health points with dark magic, so they played the battle out to test the waters and waited for the corpses and mana to be used up.

“Charge!”

“The dragon will now meet its fate!”

The players that used the Brazier of Sacrifice at Yellowy Square were assisted by flight magic spells and arrived at the spot.

Bard Ray drew his sword. The Glacial Sword sealed with the legend!

When Kaybern ran, hundreds were planted into the earth.

Gaushu: Players who have used the brazier, do not engage from the front. What we need is not defense, but offense!

Those players circled around to the sides and the rear.

The common guild members were the ones to defend the front.

They were sent into the most dangerous grounds, but pushed restlessly with their shields aligned.
