Chapter 730 - Sword Drawn
Outside of the Stoneclaw Mountains’ transfer gate, Ouroboros’s elite army waited for their allies.
A battle involving hundreds of thousands of players was different from battles involving only hundreds or thousands of players. There were not many locations that could house a battle of that scale. It was even less likely to find a proper area inside of a Dungeon.
Before the war began, one had to organize their troops first. Charging into battle recklessly would only lead to one’s doom.
Hence, Gentle Snow held Ouroboros back from entering the Stoneclaw Mountains. Instead, she chose to wait for Zero Wing’s arrival.
Ouroboros was a first-rate Guild. Although the Guild had lost quite a few of its elites due to infighting, it still possessed the background of a first-rate Guild. Moreover, due to its Guild Residence in Stone Forest Town, Ouroboros developed far faster than their competitors.
At this point, God’s Domain had already evolved from the era of Coins to the era of Magic Crystals.
With sufficient Magic Crystals, a first-rate Guild with a strong background could quickly nurture elite players.
Ouroboros already had more than 60,000 elite members. They had only slightly fewer than when they had conquered Stone Forest Town with Zero Wing. However, if one wanted to compare the quality of their elite members, Zero Wing was still slightly superior to Ouroboros.
Shi Feng had always been an advocate of quality over quantity.
Otherwise, Zero Wing would have had 40,000 or 50,000 elite members rather than 20,000.
“Guild Leader Black Flame, what do you have planned for the war with the Star Alliance?” Gentle Snow asked as she turned to Shi Feng.
Initially, Gentle Snow had thought Shi Feng would bring all of his Guild members above Level 30 with him into this war. She had never imagined that he would only dispatch 10,000 elite members. If so, she had no choice but to alter her original plan.
There were over 100,000 players on the Star Alliance’s side. Based on the latest reports she had received, they had more than 150,000 elites. Had Zero Wing brought all of its Level 30 and above members, after including Ouroboros’s elite members, they would have had more than 100,000 players as well.
In truth, many of Zero Wing’s ordinary members would be considered elites in other Guilds.
However, Zero Wing was very strict with its elite members. Not only must one hit the mark in terms of both Level and combat techniques, but they must also be capable of defeating an Elite monster of the same level. Hence, even until now, the Guild did not have many elite members.
If Zero Wing dispatched 40,000 members, the army’s overall combat power would most likely be higher than an army of 40,000 elite members from other Guilds.
Hence, even if they faced the Star Alliance’s army of 150,000 elites, their army of 100,000 players would still have a chance of victory.
Yet, Shi Feng had not done so.
“Zero Wing will draw the enemy’s fire while Ouroboros will engage in a pincer attack from the sides,” Shi Feng said very simply.
By the time the Star Alliance had issued the challenge, Shi Feng had already formulated a plan to deal with the enemy Guild.
Although the Stoneclaw Mountains were vast, the Dungeon was covered in dense forests and mountainous regions. The area had few flatlands, and they were also small in size. There was nowhere large enough for a battle of hundreds of thousands. It would be a miracle if a single battle zone could fit several thousand players. Hence, Shi Feng had only chosen to dispatch 10,000 elite members. Had he dispatched any more, they would not have had enough Nine-star Polar Domain magic arrays to go about.
