Chapter 961 - 551: The Lord System That Can’t Handle the Game

The grassland wolves and warhorses beneath them let out sharp cries.

Trailing behind were the territory’s ranged warriors and mages.

This luxurious entrance was unmatched in the region.

Only someone like Zong Shen could achieve this feat.

Within just a few minutes, the territory’s warriors arrived at the skirmish site.

This location wasn’t far from Sitanos Village.

Perhaps a mere ten or twenty kilometers away.

The surrounding area was an expansive grassland.

Several territories were visible in the vicinity.

The Flame Demon Boss stood there motionless, like a statue.

At its feet was cracked earth, with lava rolling through the crevices.

It emitted an orange-red glow.

The intense heat released turned the area within tens of meters into a steamer!

It even ignited the nearby grasslands.

The fire spread, engulfing the grassland and sending billowing smoke into the air.

As the saying goes, set the mountain on fire, and you’ll sit at the prison’s bottom.

A fire on the mountain, the warden falls in love with me.

This kind of prairie fire is extremely dangerous; don’t mimic the Flame Demon Boss.

The fire spread very quickly.

It could likely turn into a massive fire engulfing the entire grassland.

However, as the flames reached 150 meters around the Flame Demon Boss,

they were inexplicably blocked.

It was as if a circular air wall stood there, stopping the flames’ spread.

It must be a restriction method of the Lord System.

Otherwise, letting the flames spread would potentially cause severe impacts in the region.

Even so, these fires and lava posed a certain trouble for the lords’ attack strategies.

For example, right now.

They had to get closer to attack.

Because 150 meters was beyond the attack range of ordinary crossbowmen and mages.

General arrows and magic bullets couldn’t reach that far.

Unless using long-range lob.

To attack freely, one had to get within 100 meters of the Flame Demon Boss.

Zong Shen understood this well.

However, he wasn’t anxious.

The offensive of the other lords arriving one after another also slowed down.

Although it was grassland here, the grass within 150 meters of the Flame Demon was limited.

Once burned quickly, all combustibles would be burned up.

All lords were now waiting.

Once the grassland within the area was burned out, it was their time to enter and attack.

Zong Shen didn’t want to wait, he took out the [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)].

Yesterday, during his bath at Lake Heart Island, he used the Pearl’s [Water Storage] skill to store a full fifty tons of lake water.

Now with the appearance of the Flame Demon Boss, the prairie fire it caused was hindering the warriors’ entry attack.

Zong Shen could use it to extinguish the fire, open a path for entry, and let the warriors enter the attack range.

He instructed Wenresa, Doris, and Luna to organize the troops at the original spot.

While he quickly ran toward the burning flames.

He tossed the [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)] into the air.

He chose to release all the [Water Storage] at once.

Fifty tons of water wasn’t a small amount.

The Pearl in the sky emitted a blue-white glow.

It was like a peculiar faucet, spewing out a water curtain over ten meters wide.

After releasing all at once, the water curtain fell like a waterfall on the ground.

In front of Zong Shen, it formed a torrent-like wave.

It surged unstoppably toward the position of the Flame Demon Boss.

"Splash!"

Amidst the sound of the surging waves,

the tide flushed out all the flames along its path.

They collided like tides hitting the sea cliffs.

Ultimately, it swept over the lower body of the Flame Demon Boss, about twenty meters high.

When the Pearl fell back into Zong Shen’s hand, the wave had already passed the Flame Demon Boss.

This tide not only extinguished all the flames along its path.

But also cooled down the lava in the crevices near the Flame Demon Boss in this direction significantly.

A large amount of white steam rose on the spot.

It emitted a "sizzle" evaporating sound.

The steam quickly spread, like lowering a white veil.

Scalding steam dissipated all around.

Making Zong Shen feel like he had entered a sauna.

The number of lords gathered nearby wasn’t too many yet.

Although the commotion he caused was vast, it didn’t provoke much chaos among the lords.

Once the surging water extinguished the fire, his warriors advanced immediately.

The grassland underfoot had just been scorched.

The ground still had leftover pitch-black ashes.

It was washed vigorously once more by fifty tons of lake water.

The ground became muddy, with lots of residual water left.

Even this residual water was warm, steaming hot.

This was the true depiction of a wild fire scene.

Ranged warriors and mages swiftly jogged in.

They treaded on the muddy ground and entered the suitable shooting range.

Mages began chanting spells one after another.

Shooters and crossbowmen simultaneously notched arrows and crossbow bolts to their bows.

Flying Tiger, along with other Scorpion-tailed Tigers, flew to the front.

They turned the bone-ringed, tubular hollow tail.

Aiming at the Flame Demon Boss, they fired.

Zong Shen quickly launched his offensive.

Even if the Frost Gemstone couldn’t be effective, Zong Shen knew what had to be done.

The priority was, while the Flame Demon Boss’s blood volume dropped below 70%.

To attack as much as possible.

The arrows and crossbow arrows fired by the shooters resembled a sudden rainstorm, with the echoes of taut strings tracing black "threads" in the air, finally all hitting the Flame Demon Boss.
