Chapter Five Hundred and Forty Nine – The Mountain Dragon Corps (1/2)
Chapter Five Hundred and Forty Nine – The Mountain Dragon Corps
Shu Long’s group encountered trouble.
A group of mo was staring at them with malicious intent. The mo that was leading the group arrogantly shouted, “Listen well to ye, hand over half of your things and mo bei, and ye will allow you to live. If any of you don’t give ye face, ye won’t be polite.”
Shu Long looked towards his more experienced companion, Ye Ling. Before this journey, he had never been to the mo world.
Ye Ling’s expression was not good. He pressed his voice low and said, “They are bandits. There probably isn’t a ruling faction in this area and making it easy for bandits to control the area.”
“Bandits?” Shu Long stilled. “There are bandits in the mo world as well?”
Ye Ling’s old face flushed. “A lot.” His mood then lifted as he said heatedly, “So we need our king. Only our king can once again establish order!”
Shu Long patted Ye Ling heavily on the shoulder. “You are right!”
Immediately after, Shu Long slowly took out his mo weapon and said sternly, “Daren’s light has not reached this place, then we will first proceed for Daren!”
On this trip, the majority of his group were the elite of the elite from Guard Camp. In the past while they had been completely loyal to Zuo Mo, they did not have any goals or dreams. But after Ye Ling appeared, this battle maniac had causedGuard Camp to reassess themselves.
A dreams, a drive, for Guard Camp; people who were once xiu slaves and encountered great hardship, this was akin to the light in a dark world.
They naturally thought of other xiu slaves that were still in terrible situations, that Guard Camp was once enslaved like them.
Every hardship guard believed that only Daren could help more xiu slaves escape their tragic fates. Since they joined Daren, no matter where they had gone, as long as it was Zuo Mo’s territory, there were no xiu slaves.
Silently, Guard Camp started to form their simple dream.
The only one that detected this transformation was Lil’ Miss, but Lil’ Miss felt that this kind of change was not bad. It was actually good. A battalion with a dream usually possessed astounding combat abilities because they would focus themselves and motivate themselves.
The mo were shocked that Shu Long and the others were planning on fighting back.
“You really have guts! Know who ye is? Ye is from the famous Mountain Dragon Corps! Hmph hmph, dare to resist? Ye will let you know what a massacre is … …” The leading mo smirked coldly.
Shu Long didn’t even blink as his heavy armor formed on his body.
Behind him, the hardship guards manifested their heavy armor. Shu Long held his large halberd in his hand, the beak-like point was red as though it had been soaked in blood.
Shu Long was clear that his talent as a general was average and far from being comparable to Lil’ Miss’ talent. So no matter what tactic or battle formation that Pu Yao or Wei had trained them in, he would always methodically complete them.
To the strictest and most stringent degree!
Even while travelling normally they maintained a battle formation. Even if they were walking from their camp to the training field, they would maintain their battle formation.
On this long journey, they still maintained their battle formation.
What Pu Yao and Wei demanded of Guard Camp was that they had to be able to activate the battle formation in the span of two breaths. Shu Long felt that he lacked talent and wanted to have even more time to respond to the enemy trained until this was down to half of a breath.
This was a standard that was so high that even Pu Yao and Wei were shocked.
At this time, this high standard was displayed.
Before the other finished speaking, the Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation had started to move. The Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation variant that required less than one hundred hardship guards was what they trained the most in.
Threads of black mist left each hardship guard like an arrow and gathered around Shu Long at an astounding rate.
Half a breath!
Shu Long who was shrouded in the black smoke did not hesitate at all. His left foot suddenly stepped forward, as he lunged forward, and the black halberd in his hand suddenly swiped forward!
“Kill!”
The black mist covering his body flooded towards the black halberd. A black energy howled as it flew towards the enemy!
“You dare!” The mo leader was both shocked and furious. He hadn’t expected the other to really fight back and Shu Long’s move had been so fast that they responded only after the black energy formed.
The black energy was lightning fast!
When it flew in front of this group of mo, the black energy that had been a few chi on the halberd had expanded to twenty zhang in length!
The enormous energy was like a sickle!
It cut down the chaff!
Pew pew pew!
Anyone touched by the black energy was sent flying. Blood and flesh sprayed through the air. They didn’t even have the time to shout before they disappeared into the furious howl.
The howls dissipated and the black energy disappeared.
The ground was filled with bloodied bodies and broken limbs. The ground that had encountered the black energy was scorched black and was left completely lifeless.
Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.
There was an enormous section of the mo troop that had disappeared. The mo that had been standing in that space before had all disappeared. The remaining mo all had expressions of hopelessness. When the black energy had came at them, the sky in their eyes had become night!
The rising scent of blood was like terror that could not be restrained and completely filled the air. In the history of Mountain Dragon Corps, they had never faced such a fearsome opponent before.
Was this the elite of some battalion?
Even the most stupid person understood they had hit a hard nut this time. The terrible conditions of their fellows made them realize just how vicious this troop of a hundred people was!
