The Man Who Brings His Own BGM

Boom! The tide violently crashed against the breach in the city wall. The huge pile of rubble blocking the breach made a clattering sound under the impact of the tide, but stubbornly refused to be washed away.

However, the next second, a whirlwind appeared in the tide. At first, it wasn't very big, but soon, it spun like a giant dragon, releasing terrifying power, and pushed towards the rubble pile in Zone 2. The whirlwind also faintly rumbled with thunder and lightning. It crashed into the rubble pile with unstoppable force. Instantly, the rubble blocking the gap in the Dead Scar was picked up by the Tornado and blown away. It swirled in the air and scattered around the gap. Some unlucky Blood Elf Warrior were immediately smashed and their heads were bleeding. They ran around in all directions.

"Hold on, hold on! Quickly, block the breach!" Aier Burns shouted.

But it was too late. The Elemental Lords and his Elemental Army had already stormed into Silvermoon City using the tide as cover.

While the outer watchtowers put up a fierce resistance, the Silvermoon City garrison had already been mobilized. Although the tactic of using the tide to storm the city caught the garrison off guard, the Blood Elf still began a tenacious resistance.

On one side was an elemental army willing to do anything to seize the Seed of Elements, and on the other side were Blood Elf willing to sacrifice their lives to protect their homeland. The battle quickly escalated to a fever pitch.

The Blood Elf fought in every corner of the streets and alleys, Blood Elf main force being the ranger Legion, in addition to a large number of Blood Elf mage troops.

Because of their affinity with magic, Blood Elf are very skilled at using magic and are familiar with the terrain, which gives them a great advantage when fighting elemental creatures.

Those Blood Elf spellcasters, using fire magic, can inflict massive damage on Water Elemental.

Some Blood Elf spellcasters also used the Banish, but to their surprise, the Banish had no effect on these elemental creatures. In other words, these elemental creatures fought in their true forms, which was very unusual and immediately attracted their attention.

Various magical lights flashed back and forth, filling the sky. In terms of sheer destructive power, Water Elemental and sea elementals could not compare to Blood Elf, since they could only use a few types of ice spells, making it easy for the opponent to use counter-spells. However, the biggest advantage of elemental creatures was that they were not easy to Execute and had a lot of health, so the fight was evenly matched.

However, when Azathoth personally intervened, the battle immediately became one-sided.

Deep Sea Maelstrom!

With a powerful attack, a torrent of water surged through the surrounding buildings, washing out the hidden Blood Elf and dragging them into the depths of the whirlpool as they gathered around Azathoth.

Biting Wind Protection!

It was then blown into the sky by the strong airflow.

A series of attacks wiped out the Blood Elf blocking the breach, and the elemental army poured in in droves, forming lines and advancing while firing Frostbolt.

Faced with such a powerful offensive, some Blood Elf spellcasters began summoning various summoned creatures: cannon fodder, Undead, demons, elementals, Celestial Realm beings—all sorts of summoned creatures were summoned.

The Blood Elf rangers also released their battle pets.

"Elementals from another world, heed my call!" Amidst the chaos, a Water Elemental was summoned. Unlike the other mindless summoned cannon fodder, this Water Elemental, upon peeking out, first surveyed its surroundings. "Huh, is this Silvermoon City? And over there—Holy crap, the Water Elemental Lord Azathoth? What's he doing here?"

The Water Elemental was actually a player, and a member of the Elemental Will. He was startled by what he saw.

In the brief moment the Water Elemental was distracted, it had already taken several Frostbolt. However, since the Water Elemental was immune to ice magic, it did not suffer any damage, only being startled.

"Damn it, you dare to shoot at me? I'll shoot you in the face!" The Water Elemental roared as he Frostbolt back, but he couldn't inflict any damage on the enemy. The Blood Elf mage immediately realized this problem as well.

(How foolish! How can you summon Water Elemental to deal with Summon Water Elemental?) The Blood Elf mage thought, and began casting again. "Elementals from another realm, return to your own world!" Elemental Banishment!

With a whoosh, the power supporting the Water Elemental's existence in this world vanished instantly, and he was abruptly transported back to the Elemental Plane. His excitement, however, was overwhelming. "No, I have to tell the boss right away!"

He quickly exited the game and sent a message to the leader of Elemental Will.

"What? Azathoth is attacking Silvermoon City? What is he trying to do?" In the Elemental Will's conference room, Zhurong asked with a look of shock and anger.

"Whatever he's trying to do, we can't let him succeed so easily. Get our people online immediately, post on the forums, and call for reinforcements in the major cities of the Horde."

In fact, the Horde's adventurers had already reacted even before he took action.

Because adventurers share a faction channel, whenever a certain location is attacked, nearby adventurers will receive a notification. Tonight, the notification sound of Silvermoon City being attacked hasn't stopped. These adventurers then spread the word to people they know, and soon more and more adventurers knew about it. So everyone rushed to Silvermoon City. After all, Blood Elf are the largest race in the Horde, so when they called out, there were countless people. Even at 2 a. m., many people chose to log on to join the battle. People from other major cities also rushed to Silvermoon City.

Before Xiao Yu even reached the Silvermoon City Palace, he realized something was wrong. Why were there more and more enemies around him, while his own troops were dwindling? If it were just the Blood Elf garrison, that would be one thing, but there were also many Orcs, tauren, Tauren, Troll, and the like Goblin in. Adventurers were something you couldn't kill them all.

However, he was now in a difficult position. If he couldn't seize the Seed of Elements today, it would be even more difficult for Silvermoon City, which was now on guard, to obtain it. Therefore, he had to persevere as long as there was even the slightest chance.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Attack! Keep attacking!" He glanced behind him and said to a massive sea monster following him, "Go back and tell Agnes to send up the Second Legion, and the Immortal Legion too. We need more troops."

He now resembles a gambler, about to wager his biggest bet.

Turning around, he cast Ice Barrier again, but many of the adventurers were mages who had already activated their Frost Protection Barrier. This greatly reduced the effectiveness of the Ice Barrier. The adventurers rained down arrows and various spells at Azathoth, leaving Xiao Yu speechless. Damn adventurers, why are there so many of them all suddenly appearing? Don't they have school or work tomorrow?

Xiao Yu felt a pang of regret, regretting his impulsive attack on a Horde's main city. After all, this was one of the Horde's main cities, a gathering place for adventurers, unlike the desolate wilderness of Lost Island. If this battle dragged on, things might not look good.

However, having committed so many troops this time, wouldn't it be a huge loss to just retreat like this? Just as he was in a dilemma, a burst of heavy metal music suddenly rang out on the noisy battlefield. The deep drumbeats and sharp electric guitars broke the Tranquility of the night sky, drowning out the sounds of fighting and explosions.

It seemed to be some kind of background music. The adventurers all looked up in surprise, trying to find the source of the music.

"What's with this sound?" Xiao Yu wondered. Suddenly, he realized everyone was looking at him. The sound seemed to be coming from him. Every time he unleashed a powerful attack, the music would suddenly become louder. He suddenly remembered that it was his Personal BGM System. He had obtained this system from the seventh group of the operations team as one of the prices for the artifact Scourge of the Ocean. Today was the first time he had used it.

It seems that specific conditions are required to trigger it, and now, the conditions have been met. The melody of the music is so familiar, To Glory! -- It's To Glory! This is one of Xiao Yu's favorite background music tracks, and he never expected it to play at this moment.

Xiao Yu suddenly discovered that he had gained a buff.

[The Man Who Brings His Own BGM: No one can defeat me with my background music playing.]

Xiao Yu wasn't sure whether the buff was just a joke or had some special effect, but the background music made him feel Boiling and he just wanted to have a good fight.

So be it. As a BOSS, my job is to spread terror. How can you mere ant-like adventurers make me back down? You're not afraid of death, are you? Very well, then let me slaughter you to my heart's content! Let fear devour your hearts, let you tremble at the mere mention of my name, let my invincible image be imprinted deep within your souls. With these thoughts, the flames and steam around him Boiling.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Foolish mortals, I am Azathoth, Water Elemental Lord, King of The Immortals! My arrival will be your end!" (Furious Tornado!)

Amidst the dull drumbeats, a fierce wind swept up hordes of adventurers, scattering them everywhere. The Frost Guardian Barrier was utterly useless against the Tornado.

"Holy crap, what the hell is this? It's a wind spell!"

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "To dare oppose me, Azathoth, is the greatest mistake you have ever made. Before my power, everything will be reduced to ruins!" Fission Orb!

Amidst the soaring sound of an electric guitar, a silent explosion blasted a charred blank space in the crowd.

"Holy crap, are you kidding me? How did our tank get wiped out from full health? Did we waste all that 2000 points of armor?"

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Witness the Power of Pure Water, tremble before the power of the elements!" Ice Barrier!

The cold spread everywhere, enveloping everything around them. As the adventurers fought, they realized something was wrong; they grew colder and colder, and one by one, they were frozen into ice sculptures.

"Dispel quickly, Dispel quickly!"

"Damn it, it's useless."

"Damn it, I'm outta here."

"Who can Frost Guardian Barrier? Hey, mage over there, don't run away!"

Amidst the interplay of various musical notes, the adventurers either fled or were frozen into ice sculptures. Lacking organization, they descended into chaos amidst the music, and despite their large numbers, they were utterly powerless against the powerful Elemental Lords.

Azathoth stomped down, crushing a group of adventurers frozen into ice sculptures into fragments. This likely triggered over a dozen Execute effects. Those adventurers, now reduced to piles of ice and snow, were clearly beyond saving. More ice sculptures surrounded him, their eyes still able to move, staring in terror at the Elemental Lords before them, unsure of their fate.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Fragile limbs, fragile lives, pitiful souls, adventurers, you are so insignificant that I almost couldn't bring myself to kill you--"

At this point, a look of relief appeared in the eyes of each of the ice sculptures.

But at that moment, the music suddenly became much louder.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Just a little short." Biting Wind Protection!*

Xiao Yu charged straight through the ice sculpture, sending it flying everywhere before shattering into pieces. With the Ice Barrier and Biting Wind Protection, he was essentially unleashing his full power.

"Go! Go! Go! This boss drops a legendary item! Everyone, charge in! Stack up and crush him!"

More adventurers surged forward. Even though they would be frozen in just one minute, they were determined to unleash a barrage of firepower on the Water Elemental Lord before they were frozen. As the saying goes, many ants can kill an elephant. With so many people attacking together, Xiao Yu's health dropped rapidly. In less than five minutes, he lost over a million health points.

The music was getting lower and lower, like the calm before a storm. Xiao Yu hurriedly used a skill he had never used since he learned it.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Your efforts are futile, your magic laughable, your attacks weak and powerless. Abandon your futile struggles! Before the Invincible Azathoth, defeat is your only fate." Elemental Absorption!

Elemental Absorption: Absorbs the power of surrounding elements to repair damaged parts of the body, restoring 20% of health over 10 seconds. Skill cooldown: 60 minutes.

The surrounding water, flames, and air surged into his body as if they had encountered a black hole. Because he possessed three attributes simultaneously, the Elemental Absorption effect became exceptionally powerful, and his health rapidly increased, returning to full health in the blink of an eye.

Boom! The music suddenly rose from low to high, reaching its final climax.

"Holy crap, how am I supposed to fight this? My health is back to full in an instant."

"Damn, this boss must be part of the system's storyline; it's practically invincible."

The adventurers were unaware that this skill had a 60-minute cooldown and could only restore 20% of their health at a time. All they knew was that the effort they had just accomplished at the cost of hundreds of lives had vanished completely.

It's not worth getting equipment and experience from an unkillable boss; you're better off fighting the surrounding mobs.

So some people started to run away, some retreated, and some watched from a distance, but no one dared to go forward. The climax finally ended, and the music gradually went from high to low and gradually returned to calm. When the last few notes also ended, there was not a single adventurer left around Xiao Yu.
