Chapter 603 (2/2)

I nodded my head and chuckled. ”Yeah. But don't forget, we're going to hit Level 150 soon. Once we reach that level, us warriors will be able to mount up too! Heh heh, that will be the true day of our revival!”

Li Chengfeng let out a knowing laugh. ”Hahaha, you got that right! I've been waiting for this day to come for far too long!”

Xu Yang interrupted us with a grim look on his face. ”Lu Chen, we have about seventy thousand players defending the city right now, but our enemies are coming at us with more than three hundred thousand players. I think that we're still going to have a very rough time defending the city, and we don't even know what Hegemon Palace and G.o.ds of Destruction are up to yet. If they join in the attack as well, we will be in some serious trouble.”

I gave a carefree laugh as I patted him on the shoulder. ”Don't be so tense, Xu Yang. Everything will be alright! Besides, according to the rules of the system, if someone attacks a city, the defending party will be able to earn a huge reward for their city if they kill enough players within the confines of their territory. There's even a chance that the city will rise in rank! To me, Hall of Immortality, Throne Seeker, and Rose of the Holy Domain didn't come to attack our city, they came to help us raise Dark Moon City to Rank 8! Hahaha!”

Chaos Moon's sweet laughter rang in the air. ”Heh, why are you always this hopelessly optimistic…”

”Heh! Okay, time's a wastin' people! I want all warriors to follow me down to the city gates. We are going to form defense squads outside of the city and prepare to support Gui Guzi's cavalry!”

”Roger that!”

……

As we started to gather at the city gate, I called some warriors from b.l.o.o.d.y Mercenaries over on the way. A group of five thousand elite warriors were split into squads to defend the city while we left our mages and priests on the city walls. It would be much easier for them to cast offensive and healing spells from high ground and it would also be harder for the enemy players to hit them as well. That was one of the natural advantages of being on the defense.

The sounds of battle broke out in the distance as both cavalry troops finally crashed into each other!

Clang!

As Gui Guzi rode past a Ghost Rider, he slammed the tip of his spear into him. Burning energy spiraled out around the tip of his blade right before it slammed into the other party's chestplate, leaving a huge gaping hole in his armor. After that, he immediately hit him with a Death Combo! The impact of Gui Guzi's blows were so heavy that it sent the Level 134 magic knight flying straight off his horse! Our undead knight had killed him in two attacks!

On the other side, red light illuminated Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun's face as he launched a Rock Smash into a group of Ghost Riders which instantly killed some of them and wrecked their formation!

In truth, AoE skills were still extremely important in mounted combat. They could not only inflict serious damage on a group of charging enemies, they could also completely disrupt and destroy their formation as they charged forward. This was invaluable when it came to fights between riders.

”Die! Die!” Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun's blade danced in the air as he kept hitting the enemy hors.e.m.e.n with his skills like Double Slash and Mount Hua Strike. The enemy Ghost Riders stared at him dumbfounded shock as one of them exclaimed in dismay, ”f.u.c.k me upside down! This wanderer from Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls is h.e.l.la fierce! Could he be the Fruit Knife G.o.ddess's uncle?”

Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun attacks grew even fiercer as he roared, ”f.u.c.k YOU ALL! I'm not even thirty years old! I'm not a G.o.d d.a.m.n uncle!”

Heaven's Rain had also charged into battle. Spirals of flaming energy erupted around her broadsword from time to time as she casually flicked her sword at her opponents. She was a very clever fighter who never aimed for a quick kill. Instead, she flitted around the battlefield while dealing as much damage as possible. It resembled the hit-and-run tactics used by guerilla fighters.

Every time she rushed past a squad of enemy riders, she would shave off a big chunk of their HP. She would then immediately move on to her next set of victims while she let the Cyan Tiger Cavalry behind her finish off the wounded players she left in her wake. Of course, this fighting style didn't negatively affect her guild contribution points one bit.

There were many ways to earn guild contribution points. Killing your target was one way, but dealing as much damage as possible was another. A priest's healing would also earn them contribution points if they healed wounded guild members, so a decently strong priest would have no problems earning points either. Murong Mingyue was a perfect example of this as she had always ranked in the Top 5 when it came to guild contribution points.

Bang, bang, bang...

As both cavalry troops collided into each other, the superiority of our Cyan Tiger Cavalry was immediately evident. The Ghost Riders' mounts actually swayed and stumbled backward under the impact from our charging tigers. Both parties pressed in and exchanged vicious blows before wheeling off to regroup and charge at each other once more. Bodies fell to the ground every time both groups clashed and nearly all of them belonged to the Ghost Riders. Our super cavalry had torn into them like a starving tiger and at least five hundred of these Ghost Riders had been sent to their graves. The brutal truth was that our Cyan Tiger Calvary was far stronger than the Hall of Immortality's Ghost Riders. In fact, most of them could barely even fend off the attacks from our riders.

Both Gui Guzi and Heaven's Rain were very clever fighters. They exploited the advantage provided by their Famous General Skills to the limit by having the two hundred people in their parties form the tip of the spear which clashed with the Ghost Riders' formation every time. As a result, every time our troops clashed in battle, they would naturally come out on top thanks to the outstanding Attack and Defense buffs provided by Knight G.o.d and Knight General. There was simply nothing the enemy could do to the two hundred cavalrymen who were empowered by those skills.

As Gui Guzi raised Rainbow high in the air, he let out a roar of fury. ”It was these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who killed our comrades from the main guild in the Dragonbone Mountain Range! Slaughter every last one of them! I want to wipe these Ghost Riders off the map completely. The time has come to defend the honor of all the cavalrymen in Sky City. Let's send these dumba.s.ses back home! Charge!”
