Chapter 731 - The Hand of Waterloo (2/2)
Motherf*cker, it’s the number one player on the French Battlenet. Who knew the first enemy we meet in Moon City would be such a strong opponent!
Under the command of the guildmaster of [Dawn], a group of people charged at us, and filled up the opening that I had made with my [Thundering Heavens]. Li Mu, Wang Jian, and Old K were not going to sit by and watch. Li Mu swung his sword and shouted, “Ram them! Protect the [Hero’s Mound] players’ retreat!”
Matcha, Meng Yao and Wang Jian all charged forward, and used their Steel Blade Horses to ram into the enemy. In the end, bangs rang throughout the battlefield. Looks like the horsemen of the [Dawn] guild were still slightly lower than ours, as they were pushed back several steps and blocked by the [Zhan Long] horses.
In the distance I shouted, “Q-Sword, what are you waiting for? Take your players and retreat! There are more and more of them!”
Q-Sword grit his teeth and pointed straight at the opening and roared, “Retreat! Don’t fight with them any longer. Brothers that have died, wait to revive after they’ve left!”
……
“You want to leave?!”
Among the crowd of people, Hand of Waterloo steered his black battle horse faster them. With a shout, he shocked one of the [Hero’s Mound] knights and struck his sword right into the knight’s shield. “Keng!” He knocked away the shield androared, “GTFO!”
The shield was knocked away. Hand of Waterloo immediately activated [Blade Rush] and then followed the attack with an SS tier combo —— [Dawn Slash]!
Four continuous attacks landed on the knight’s chest, immediately emptying his health. He then leapt up and threw another combo followed with a final [Sky Shaker Slash]!
“Peng!”
“17271！”
The enormous damage number had shocked even me. Just how high was that b*st*rd’s attack power? He was actually able to cut down that much health from such a high leveled knight? Even if that was a combo, that last attack shouldn’t have been that heavy, right?
“Chase after them!”
Hand of Waterloo chased after them. His bloody blade was like the hands of fate, which cut down the [Hero’s Mound] players that lagged behind, one by one. It was as though he was displaying the strength of the French Servers to us.
……
“Let’s go!”
Q-Sword raised his sword and shielded the retreat of his players. There were more and more [Dawn] players that were gathering in the area. [Hero’s Mound] players were continuously falling of their horses and dying. Several of the twenty knights that [Zhan Long] had brought were also down to critical health. Thankfully nobody had died. However, Hand of Waterloo was already catching up. If he managed to reach us, then the consequences would be dire.
“Shua!” Wan Er slid from my lap and softly said, “Pig, I’m going to hold off those swordsmen. You go and attack Hand of Waterloo. After holding them off for ten seconds, use your skills to stop them and then run!”
“Ok!”
I gripped my sword and charged at Hand of Waterloo. My beautiful girlfriend then picked up her dagger and charged at a group of French Swordsmen. The moment she clashed with them, she had immediately blocked a [Blade Rush]. Her beautiful figure spun in the air and the three attacks from [Blade of the Death God] had landed right on the swordsman’s neck. It seems that he was ranked forty seventh on the French Battle Net, but he was still killed in that instant.
She then turned around and pulled out her Iron Umbrella. “Keng keng!” sparks flew and she had parried off the other attacks from the swordsmen. Wan Er waved her hand and activated [Arrival of the Death God]. She flew up while maintaining her balance. “Shua Shua!” her dagger flicked through the crowd, and cut into each of the players’ necks and wrists, and aimed precisely at their weak points. However, Wan Er’s body nimbly dashed from side to side, dodging all of the attacks. In reality, it was her Mind reading skill at play. After all, she could guess the next moves of any non expert players.
With the cover from Wan Er, I charged right at Hand of Waterloo. The two of us didn’t try any tricks and just fought face to face. “Keng!” I felt my wrist go numb. Hand of Waterloo slid back half a step. A sliver of shock raced through his eyes, as though he was stunned that someone as strong as I was in the Chinese Servers.
“Not bad!”
Hand of Waterloo had actually gotten more excited. He whooped and suddenly threw another faster attack. I didn’t even have the time to react with my Battle Reflux strategy. A flame appeared on his blade, it was the SS tier skill—— [Star Flame Slash]!
The skill dealt five attacks. I managed to block some of the strikes with my Brilliant Flame Emperor.I then immediately threw out my Dragon Reservoir Sword in a stab!
“Pu!”
“9179！”
He frowned. I quickly followed the attack with a Level 12 [Combo]+Level 12 [Sword Tempest]. Hand of Waterloo’s defense we pretty good. He managed to take that many hits and still not die. He gripped his sword with both hands and threw another heavy attack, [Star Flame Slash]!
“12211！”
Such a fierce attack! I felt a shudder run through my body. At the same time, I knew that my chance had come. I suddenly grabbed his wrist guard and pulled him towards myself. At the same time, light began to glow under my feet and I activated [Strength of a Thousand Men] + [Wind Blade] at the same time.
“Not good!”
Hand of Waterloo had a stunning reaction time. In that moment, he activated [Blade Rush], dodgin my [Strength of a Thousand Men]. At the same time, he activated [Star Flame Shield] and a golden light enveloped him. Not far from me, I heard Wan Er’s voice, “Hurry up and leave! You can’t kill him!”
I nodded and retreated. I reached out and pulled a critically wounded Wan Er onto my horse. I used [Charge] right into the opening and dashed out with the [Hero’s Mound] players. We had successfully shielded their retreat!
……
[Ice Domain]!
[Heaven’s Lullaby]!
After the two skills activated, all of the [Dawn] players were frozen in place. I could see the look of determination and unwillingness in the eyes of Hand of Waterloo. He grit his teeth as he was frozen in place.
