Chapter 549 Take down the fox!
Kyuuuu! Luna grinned and immediately began her assault. She jumped onto the back of the white tiger and swung her body around to face the others.
The next instant, the fox opened her cute mouth and began spitting out huge balls of fire. She was like a moving cannon and was one shotting the other beasts ruthlessly.
Combined with the rocks falling from above, the beasts could only barely withstand one or two hits before getting dunked by the several rocks and fell out of the bed of clouds.
It started with only one or two beasts, but after Luna began her assault one by one, all the mounts started quickly falling.
Within seconds, the total number of mounts had decreased from 50 to 25! Everyone watching this show was in complete uproar. How was this even a race anymore?
All the players who had bet on the fallen heroes shed tears of blood and cursed the damned fox loudly. This one fox had single-handedly changed the course of the tournament.
At this time, the news that the fox was a mount belonging to the Crimson Abyss guild started spreading. Mia's white tiger was also very popular, so it didn't take long for the players to figure out what was happening.
The Crimson Abyss guild mounts were all ganging up together and trying to eliminate the others. At this rate, every other participant was going to be eliminated.
"This tournament is rigged! This is complete bullshit! Crimson Abyss is cheating!" All the other guild members started rioting. Unfortunately, their complaints only fell on deaf ears.
Even after the total number of mounts fell to 25, the fox and the tiger duo did not look like they were going to stop anytime soon.
If any other mount came within their eyesight, it was immediately shot down.
However, the race was still ongoing, so things once again took a turn, and it was for the worst.
The rocks falling from above suddenly stopped, and in its place, there were now arrows engulfed in what looked like toxic fumes. That too all of these arrows came at them horizontally and not vertically like the rocks.
This made things so much more difficult as the arrows were extremely fast to begin with, and on top of it, all the beasts were also running towards the arrows and not away from them.
This further increased the relative speed.
The difficulty of this race was just cranked up to the maximum!
Now Luna did not even have to take action. As soon as the arrows appeared, it was clear that except for the drakes and the mysterious fox, no one else was going to clear this round.
This made everyone happy because this situation gave an unfair advantage to the beasts in the back. Since the arrows were shooting at them from the front, the beasts in the front would be the first to fall.
And right now, only one or two arrows showed up, just like the rocks at the beginning, but slowly this number was increasing, and avoiding these arrows while running forward was impossible.
This made everything messy. Suddenly the mounts of the players at the back began to rejoice. Now there was a chance for them to win!
Other players standing and watching this also began to rejoice in Crimson Abyss's misery and celebrate.
"This is called karma bitches!"
"HA HA HA! You made me lose ten gold coins! It serves you right! DIE! DIE! DIE!"
"The drakes won't go down. Only the Crimson Abyss mounts are going to fall!"
"Finally! Justice is served!"
Almost every single player wanted to see the damned cheaters fall and get kicked out of the tournament.
"SEND MORE ARROWS!"
"TAKE DOWN THE FOX!"
Several chants could be heard resonating around the PVP tower. Mei Mei and Shen Yue became very nervous.
"Liam… Will everything be fine?"
"Bro…"
Even Mia's calm and cold facade was replaced with her anxious blue eyes looking at Liam to see what would be his next move.
Only that man seemed to be calmly standing, unaffected by anything happening around them or anything happening on the screen.
"Liam, do you have a plan?"
"Of course." Liam nodded. "I am just waiting to see how the drakes will perform, but maybe it is time to put the plan in action."
Liam grinned and then gave a slight nod. "Do it, Luna."
Almost immediately, the small white fox ballooned up and became several sizes bigger.
And she did not stop there. In a smooth movement, she started tossing the beasts around her onto her back.
Kyaaa! The majestic big white tiger yelped like a kitten as he was thrown unceremoniously by the fox. The two bats stared like owls as they uncomfortably sat on Luna's back. The panther's condition was no better.
In a second, all four beasts that were running near Luna were suddenly on her back, sitting atop the huge fluffy ride. Luna's fur was that too much softer than the clouds.
Clinging onto her tightly, the group of beasts stared at each other with big confused eyes. What was happening?
This same expression was there on all the players' faces as well. Just now, everyone was chanting for the downfall of the unruly fox, and now things became even crazier!
"What nonsense is this?"
"Something like this is also allowed?"
"Just how far are these bastards going to go? Is there really no limit to their atrocities?"
"Why is the PVP tower allowing this? Who the heck is conducting this tournament, damn it? Can't you disqualify this guild already?"
The entire player base once again fell into a huge uproar, but at this time, one wise person reminded everyone.
"Guys, relax. No matter what tricks these people use, that fox won't make it."
"Look at the drakes. Even they are struggling to avoid the arrows. What do you think is going to happen to the fox who is this big in size and is also carrying this much dead weight?"
"Ah! That's right! The fox will never make it!"
"Right! Right! This stupid guild should lose! Only then I will be satisfied!"
As everybody not so silently voiced out their prayers and watched the race with their eyes peeled open, right in front of them, something unbelievable occurred.
The darned fox's speed did not reduce at all. In fact, it became even faster as it rolled around the bed of clouds like a giant fluffy ball. It was avoiding all the arrows left and right with ease.
The wise person and the other players who were waiting for the fox to fail could only gawk with their mouths wide open.
One by one, all the other mounts began to fall, but the fox with the three tails was still going strong! In the blink of an eye, the twenty-five beasts were now reduced to thirteen.
And among these thirteen, five mounts belonged to the crimson abyss guild!
Everyone burned in jealousy. The Gresh Kingdom was the home ground for all the players in this city, standing around the PVP tower, and the six-winged lion had been the unbeatable symbol of strength for all of them.
But now suddenly, an arrow passed right through the lion's forehead, and the last of the contestant from the top three kingdom guilds fell through.
Currently, this PVP tournament that was boasted to be a special tournament held for the Gresh kingdom players did not have any players from the top three guilds of the Kingdom.
Only the second-tier guild Crimson Abyss had five players still in the race. This was a huge slap in the face to every player of the Kingdom.
And as for the Crimson Abyss guild members, they were all cheering loudly and chanting Luna's name! Suddenly, she somehow became an even bigger celebrity than Mia or Alex!
