Chapter 703 – A Group of Maniacs (2/2)
“Alright!”
……
I turned around and charged forward. Li Mu and Wang Jian had already gathered their Steel Blade Horsemen. Four thousand horsemen stood in magnificent rows within the valley. They gave off an imposing aura. [Zhan Long]’s crimson insignias had practically melded together. It truly was an impressive battle scene.
“Let’s set out to hunt monsters!” I raised my Dragon Reservoir Sword and dashed ahead. Li Mu, Wang Jian, Matcha and Yue Yao Yan all grinned and followed along.
From a distance, I could see that Death God’s Elegy and the players from Division Three had already set off in to the distance. Wan Er, Dong Cheng and Dancing Forest were leading the rest of the main guild players into the Sword Saint Forest. This way, even if the enemy had spied on [Zhan Long], they wouldn’t be able to tell that the players Wan Er was leading were there for the sake of supporting the Steel Blade Cavalry. When the time comes, they’ll cut through the Sword Saint Forest and straight to the plains. By then, the situation will be completely under our control.
An autumn gust arose, and shook the leaves on the plain. I could smell the fresh scent of grass in the air. In the distance, the fruits that hung on the trees of the Sword Saint Forest were already ripening. I could even detect a slight scent of apples in the air. Four thousand Steel Blade Horsemen had split up into several hundred men teams. They were killing monsters on the plains. I on the other hand had to maintain the flow of information while I was killing.
In the guild chat, there was a total of eight people talking. Death God’s Elegy appeared in the list of players in the chat. I had been keeping tabs on their situation the entire time.
……
Spread out and prepare to grind levels. The Level 127 Thunder Tier wild boars here must be very fat!” Death God’s Elegy shouted orders as he raised his spear. He whooped. Maybe even he was hiding the true motive for leading this thousand man team out from his subordinates and so many of the people thought that they were actually grinding levels. One after another they spread out into the forests killing monsters. Death God’s Elegy looked to be a bit unsettled. He immediately then added, “Don’t go out too far. Send out some assasins to scout the area first. If you see any movement, immediately collect your team and prepare for battle!”
In the end, not long after that, they suddenly heard the sound of a dragon’s screech pierce through the forest. An arrow shot straight through the sky. It was the light from the [Rising Dragon Arrow]. It was a message. There wasn’t a single archer stupid enough to send a [Rising Dragon Arrow] into the sky on accident.
“Careful, there are people here. Assemble!” Death God’s Elegy knew he was facing a great enemy.
All of the players quickly gathered together. But before they had completely congregated, the trees in the distance began to sway. One after another, fierce Flame Greedy Wolves lunged out from behind the trees. More and more crashed through the forest. Minimalist, You Yi and Yue Yao Chen were all among them. It was the Greedy Wolf Raiders main force! Minimalist raised his long sword, his eyes filled with killing intent as he ordered, “Who cares if its a trap or not. We are the Wolf Troops, we’re the only ones that eat others, no one dares to take a bite out of us! Kill! Right and left flanks, envelope them. Don’t let a single one of [Zhan Long]’s players escape!”
……
“Guidmaster, what do we do?” One of the [Zhan Long] archers was terrified, “By the looks of it, ten thousand of the Raiders have all appeared. They’ve taken the guts of a lion to actually dare and raise a hand against [Zhan Long]!”
Death God’s Elegy wryly smiled. He swung his spear and shouted, “Take a stand, we’re duking it out against them!”
“Yes sir!”
A group of cavalry players all charged out. What I had not expected was that Death God’s Elegy that youngster was out of his mind. He used a thousand man team and charged at the fifteen thousand man cavalry!
“Peng peng peng….”
The sound of clashes between the two cavalries echoed through the forest. The Greedy wolf Raiders’ attack power was formidable and their attacks shockingly accurate and flexible. Oen after another, [Flying Sword]s flashed through the sky, and cut apart [Zhan Long: Division Three]’s formation. In this one clash, we had lost over thirty percent of our men in that team. Death God’s Elegy still didn’t retreat. He brought his cavalry and charged once again. He swung his spear and continuously killed the Greedy Wolf Raiders in front of him.
The entire scene seemed to be dyed red in that one moment, it was too savage!
“Wu…” Wan Er clenched her teeth, “Death God, have you gone mad?”
Death God’s Elegy bitterly smiled as he killed, “If I don’t let them taste a little bit of sweetness, how could they obediently follow me and get near the Sword Saint Forest? Don’t worry guildmaster, seeing as I’ve taken this quest, then I will not let you down. It doesn’t matter if there isn’t a single man or horse left, I must send these fifteen thousand Raiders to their executor’s blade!”
……
Not long after, all thousand players were practically killed. Even the sounds of battle were starting to dim. The Greedy Wolf Raiders were incredibly fast. It was pretty much a massacre!
“F*ck….” Li Mu gripped his fist, “Death God that kid…. Isn’t he just about to be completely swallowed whole? It’s only been five minutes, why hasn’t there been any movement…”
The situation was too chaotic. I couldn’t even see any of [Zhan Long]’s players. Everywhere I looked were [Thousand Burial]’s flags.
My heart was truly turning sour. In that one instant, all thousand players from [Zhan Long: Division Three] were gone!
After ten minutes, I suddenly saw the Raiders’ formation shift. Right after that, a group of people charged out from the center. It was Death God’s Elegy with around fifty cavalry as he miraculously charged out of the encirclement. His long sword and armor were both practically drenched in fresh blood and his Steel Blade Horse looked as though it had waded through a crimson sea. He ran straight for the Sword Saint Forest. This time, nobody suspected him of baiting them, but rather that he was running for his life.
……
“That lucky b*st*rd….”
Wang Jian gaped as he watched the scene unfold, “The people in [Zhan Long: Division Three] really are a group of madmen….”
