Chapter 771 - Massacring [New Moon]
“Archers, prepare. [Scatter Shot], release!”
Near the forest, one of the team leaders from [New Moon] shouted, “Don’t let them charge past the firenet! Stun, sleep, do whatever you have to do to stop their advance. Mages prepare to use your [Lullaby]! Knights, hold your ground. We cannot allow the enemy past our front lines!”
“Shua shua shua…”
The twangs of bowstrings rang out in the battlefield. A rain of [Scatter Shot]s fell from the night sky, landing right in the middle of [Zhan Long]s charge. Meng Yao and Yue Yao Yan were side by side at the lead of the group. A group of other pretty female knights created a defensive formation that covered for the rest of the team. There were at least a thousand Moon Elves riding amongst the Steel Blade Horsemen!
“Pu Pu Pu…”
Several people had been stunned by the [Scatter Shot]s. I could hear the back row of knights ramming into each other as they forced their way past their stunned brothers. Even so, those arrows did not stop our advance. Meng Yao and Yao Yan continued leading the charge at the enemy’s front line. Most of the [Lullaby]s cast by their mages had been dodged. After all, it needs to be targeted before being cast, and the Steel Blade Horsemen traveled far too quickly for the mages to predict their movements. Most of the time, they couldn't even lock their spells onto our knights.
Yao Yan’s pretty face revealed an excited expression. She raised her long sword and threw a [Skyshaker Stab] right into the crowd, “Charge through their Shield formation!”
The Moon Elf Knights all raised their shields in front of their chest. “Peng peng peng,” They rammed into the enemy's formation. Just from that initial charge, they managed to push the group of the [New Moon] knights backwards into retreat.
“Now it's our turn!”
I raised my Zhen Yue Blade with a smile, “Charge! Don't waste the sacrifice our sisters in the front have made!”
During the first round of attacks by the Moon Elf Cavalry, we had naturally lost quite a few people. At least a hundred had died. However, the enemy’s loss was ten times our own. Li Mi, Wang Jian, Old K, and Death God's Elegy followed close behind, and dealt a brutal blow right after the Moon Elves. Most of our warriors were swordsmen. If we were to say that the Moon Elf Cavalry was our shield, then the rest of our cavalry is our sword, and one strong enough to deal the wrath of a death God upon our enemies!
I raised my Zhen Yue Blade and threw a [Seven Star Fragment Slash] into the Shield Formation and then ordered, “Do not hesitate. Charge right through them. Use your [Flying Sword] and your [Sword Break] skills to deal the most damage. We cannot give them the chance to deal a counter attack!”
I swung my Dragon Reservoir sword, and hacked into the crowd of people. Everyone before me turned into a sea of blood. Li Mu and Wang Jian were close behind me, dealing a [Covering Sword Slash]and [Halberd Whirlwind] into the enemy lines. Wan Er’s [Blade of the Death God] dealt explosive damage to her targets. While Wei Liang, Qing Qian and Wolf had activated their [Unwavering Spirit], dealing enormous amounts of damage. Just from the three’s stats, the [New Moon] players were not of any threat to them.
“Hold them off!”
A group of [New Moon] knights gathered together and formed a tight group, as though attempting to stop our charge. Qing Qian lunged into the air, her nimble body twisting as she opened her pale hand and smiled, “Destroy!”
Flames burst and ravaged through the air. Firefox claws ripped through the flames and slashed through the crowd. A level 13 [Grip of the Firefox] exploded in the crowd of people, dealing over 15000 damage. Li Mu and I took the chance and activated our [Blade Rush] to charge forward. All of the New Moon knights who had been left with critical health from the initial attack were now shattered by our follow up. Old K then threw a [Whirlwind Slash], finishing off any survivors.
The reality was, that while [New Moon] was number two in the Japanese servers, there was no way they could stand against nine thousand of [Zhan Long]’s Steel Blade Horsemen. Even if these soldiers weren’t part of our main forces, I still had complete confidence that we could break through their first line of defense. If we really couldn’t, then we could just activate the two BUFFs from our two nation level weapons. At that point, nobody could stand before [Zhan Long]!
……
The forest before us was now drowned in a sea of blood. Li Mu and the twelve others who were outfitted in the Deer Cry Armor were our enemy’s nightmare. Furthermore, the fifteen hundred players who wore the Black Flame Outfits made up the core of our cavalry, leaving no opportunity for a counterattack from our enemies. We couldn’t be killed, nor defeated. And our enemies certainly could not escape!
“Ka Cha!”
My Dragon Reservoir Sword cut through the throat of an enemy knight. Without waiting for his reaction, I swept my Zhen Yue Blade forward, and nearly cut his body in half. He was instantly killed. My Flying Scythe Horse let out a cry. It was only then that I realized I had already cut through the enemy’s formation. I charged through the Shield Formation and hit the mages and archers in the back. Behind me, a group of Steel Blade Horsemen continued their attack.
I raised my Zhen Yue Blade and shouted, “Charge forward! Once you reach the end, recreate the formation. We must decrease our losses!”
Li Mu, Wang Jian, Old K, and Bai Qi all understood that they could not become consumed by the battle. One after another, they charged forward, and disentangled themselves from the battle. Matcha raised her Lion King Shield and rammed her way past a dozen or so people. There wasn’t a hint of fear in her face. With the Lion King Shield in her hands, she was on a completely different level from the players trying to kill her. There was no way they could manage to take her life. Li Mu dashed forward and helped Matcha kill the straggling survivors. Quite a few people had forgotten to use their [Pardon Cards].
