Infinite Range: The Sniper Mage

"SSR Club, just a name with no substance."

Empress spoke with a cold and proud expression. Upon hearing her words, the players from SSR turned pale.

"Dragon Knight... a proper Dragon Knight, Infinite Dimensions, are you kidding me?!"

"Oh my god, one Orgod was already enough to make us sick, now there's a The Flame Dragon Paladin?!"

The SSR players stood dumbfounded, as the dragon spear she wielded pointed towards them, heralding their annihilation.

In the blink of an eye, over forty players from SSR and the Rattlesnake Guild were wiped out.

Empress was riding a mini The Flame Dragon, with a wingspan of only twenty or thirty meters. In comparison, even a low-level The Flame Dragon was still a mighty dragon beast! Despite its size, it was a real, legitimate dragon!

SirLagsALot: "Holy crap! These rich guilds are really something. Where the hell did they even get that dragon?"

"Invincible, damn! Empress is so badass."

"Now the first candidate for Dragon Knight, Drunken Dream, hasn't even touched a dragon's hair yet, and she's already riding one!"

"What a shame though, why release the giant dragon now? Once the battle beast dies, it can't be revived. Doesn't she know that?"

"Damn it, I bet this dragon was stolen and sold for at least 10 billion. Now releasing it... isn't that just slapping the The Flame Dragon ancestors in the face?"

The viewers in the live stream stared in shock, but there was a sense of schadenfreude as well.

Battle beasts were different from summoned beasts. While summoned beasts had a time limit, battle beasts could be used indefinitely, but once they died, they were gone for good.

Empress's The Flame Dragon was equipped with dragon knight-specific saddlery, which was a holy silver color, reducing magic and physical damage taken.

She looked like a divine knight descending from heaven, wreaking havoc on the enemy players below with her spear and fiery magic.

Madman: "What the hell, you guys are what, level 30 and you're already riding a dragon? Wait, that's not your profession!"

Bradley was stunned: "The Flame Dragon? Is that the one Orson showed me, from the ostrich eggs?"

Despite the chaotic battle, players were sneaking peeks at the dragon's stats.

[Flame Dragon · Little Bean: Level 20]

[Domain Beast of Moonlight Guild's Empress]

[HP: 20 million]

[Attack: 4000]

[Talent Skill 1: Mastery of Fire Magic, Body Domination]

[Dragon Knight Technique 2: Dragon Flame Fury, The Flame Dragon's Wingbeat]

"20 million HP at level 20... holy crap!"

"I'm turning green with envy! This is the horror of a Dragon Knight, combining with the dragon for one hell of an attack—1+1 equals 20!"

The knight players in the vicinity were envious to the point of madness. Even members of Iron Cavalry, with their rich gear, were no exception.

Who doesn't want to ride a dragon as a knight?!

Iron Cavalry: "Who can give me a The Flame Dragon... I'll sign a 100-year indentured contract happily!"

Ride Donkey: "I just need a dragon egg, I'll scrub its family's toilets for a lifetime!"

...

The members of Moonlight Guild were awestruck: "So cool! Guild Master!"

The players of Moonlight Guild admired Empress, while a few wealthy members frowned.

It was Empress who had revealed the guild's trump card, acting without consulting them, which made them furious. If Empress made a mistake and The Flame Dragon Little Bean were to die, even if Empress was close to them, they might fall out. After all, Empress of the Moon was the official guild leader, but in reality, decisions were often made by a few wealthy shareholders in the guild.

Moonlight Guild - Beichen: "Hurry up and put it away, you've made us a target. There are plenty of players who will try to destroy us if we can't get it."

"My lineage... has been reduced to a weak tribe's mount, how tragic!"

"This is my bloodline! Heretic, you are unforgivable!"

An enraged roar echoed in the sky as the parents of the The Flame Dragon, the Dragon Queen and Dragon King, sensed their offspring's presence and went into a berserk state.

They turned into two streaks of light and flew towards the Bone Dragon Stronghold in the air, their dragon wings creating chaos in the wind.

The sky was covered with fire meteors, raining down upon the players below.

Empress furrowed her brow, planning to argue, but when she saw the two The Flame Dragons in a rage, she quickly lowered her altitude and returned Little Bean to the Battle Space.

Empress was a righteous person, and she knew that without Orson, she would never have obtained this dragon. Nor would she have had the chance to trigger the Holy Knight promotion task to gain the The Flame Dragon Paladin hidden job.

Taking a bit of risk to help the Godslayer Guild seemed worth it to her. However, Moonlight Guild was not entirely under her control.

Reaver: "How the hell did they get it? Our guild has Dragon Knight candidates, but we just can't find any relevant intel."

His brow furrowed, "A level 20 The Flame Dragon with such power... if a guild has one, it would greatly enhance their strength."

Wedge: "The The Flame Dragon mount is indeed beyond my expectations."

A lower-level dragon wasn't enough to make her envious; she had seen true high-level dragons—those were terrifyingly powerful!

Madman: "You guys, stay focused!"

Under the siege of five dragons, over half of the Godslayer Alliance's 5000 players were wiped out, and the priests' resurrection skills went into cooldown.

Madman: "Empress, ShatteredCrown, retreat!"

Seeing ShatteredCrown and the others resurrecting and returning, Madman immediately ordered his guild's melee tanks to move to the front to cover Empress and ShatteredCrown, allowing them to teleport to Celestial Fortress.

Madman: "Let's go! Whoever wants to grab some kills, follow me!"

He glanced at the enemy base, standing atop his golden war chariot. A cold, sinister smile formed at the corner of his lips.

Reaver: "Victory to SSR!"

Reaver roared, and with the help of several teammates, they took down Iron Cavalry, the most durable and talkative member of the Godslayer Knights.

Iron Cavalry: "Wait for me up there!" he cursed, frustrated, as his body was hacked down by six professional players. If it weren't for the intense firepower of the enemy's backline, he would have used his anti-magic shield to kill them.

Reaver: "Shut up. This is the price for associating with Orgod." He stepped on Iron Cavalry's corpse and spat.

"Kill Orgod, take the Sky City!"

"Godslayer players, prepare for my wrath!"

After this, tens of thousands of players from SSR stormed into the Bone Dragon Stronghold, and with the help of NPC troops, they flattened all the structures within five minutes.

System Announcement:

Godslayer Guild's Bone Dragon Stronghold has fallen!

"Players who reach the third floor of the Celestial Fortress will be able to use the teleportation array!"

"Guild Leader Orgod of Godslayer has lost the Bone Dragon Stronghold certificate!"

"Guild Leader Wedge of SSR has claimed the Bone Dragon Stronghold certificate with 42% of player output!"

Multiple system announcements popped up, and guild leaders across the US region breathed a sigh of relief.

It was expected that SSR would secure the Bone Dragon Stronghold, as their hard strength was undeniable. However, if Triple Crown Winner hadn't made enemies with so many people, it was feared he might have truly become the "leader of the US region."

Fortunately, those without a conscience were dealt with by NPCs without mercy.

Except for Godslayer, other top guilds found the result acceptable.

Viewer 622: "They're done for. If their allies go down, they won't be able to enter anymore. Too many people want to take them out, and they can't fight back..."

Viewer 835: "Godslayer's three guilds fought really well, almost took down a The Flame Dragon, and killed so many NPCs and players. Too bad, losing was just a matter of time."

Viewer 1174: "Keep shouting, huh? Your Orgod's people? Like rats in the street, you'll never change your nature!"

Meanwhile, Orson flew above the third battlefield, where chaos was just as intense.

Outside the ancient teleportation array leading to the UJ region, a massive battle was taking place between UJ and US players, with spells and battle techniques flying everywhere.

Slaughter Spree: "God, there's no end to this! How many UJ players are teleporting in?!"

**

SlaughterDemon Emperor**: "Quit the chatter, left-wing flanking! All mages, head to the teleportation array. Don't care about the frontlines. The more they come, the more I'll slaughter!"

A towering black giant warrior, drenched in dark magic blood, rampaged through the UJ players, his sword slashing down one after another.

However, as the mage output was withdrawn, more than 300 UJ players swarmed in and surrounded Demon Emperor and his team with a sea of bodies.

"Need some help, my ambitious ally?"

A calm voice echoed from the sky.
