Chapter 605 (2/2)
The first group of Purple Thunder Cavalry who broke through the firewall—there were about a hundred of them—charged toward us while laughing loudly, forcing Moonlight Stone and the mages to concentrate their spells on them instead. As a result, we were forced to shrink the width of our firewall, which was exactly what Rose Thorn was hoping to see. The moment she saw the opening, the wise and courageous guild leader immediately raised her sword and commanded her troops to push forward. I had to admit that Rose of the Holy Domain was much better than Hall of Immortality or Throne Seeker in terms of strategy.
……
I waved my own sword and growled out, “Fighters, it's our turn now! Once you make contact with the enemy, try to use Guard as much as you can, but watch out for their Crus.h.i.+ng Blows, okay? Here we go!”
The second I said that, I rushed forward and locked onto a Purple Thunder Cavalry far, far away in front of me. Then, I activated Thunderous Charge and turned into a lightning bolt!
Bang!
A direct hit later, I launched Thousand Ice Slash and froze dozens of Purple Thunder Cavalry in ice. The players at the back couldn't halt their momentum, so they crashed into the players at the front and dealt ma.s.sive damage to their own allies. At the same time, Li Chengfeng, Chaos Moon, and the others slammed into the enemies as well.
“Kill kill kill!”
A team leader of the Purple Thunder Cavalry shouted as he swung his weapon wildly. Somehow, he was able to kill a couple of our fighters because he was mounted and they were not. Unfortunately, a foot soldier was very disadvantaged when fighting against a rider. I was fine only because my stats, equipment, and skills were insane.
“f.u.c.k off!”
I swung my sword three times and launched three flaming sword blades at seven or eight Purple Thunder Cavalrymen, scaring the s.h.i.+t out of them. They tried to raise their s.h.i.+elds and block the attack, but it was too late. I was so familiar with the skill that I was able to complete it almost instantly. They died before they could a.s.sume a Guard stance. Unlike our Gui Guzi, these Purple Thunder Cavalrymen only had 30k to 50k HP or so, so they weren't able to survive my Burning Blade Slash. Of course, if they had guarded successfully, then they could've easily saved themselves.
There was a Level 134 rider in front of me who actually reacted quick enough to Guard the attack. However, he didn't look pleased in the slightest because I was running toward him like the grim reaper, red cloak flapping behind my back and a dragon's soul circling my blade! Worse, I was too fast for him to turn to another direction and dodge!
“f.u.c.k you, I'm not going down without a fight!”
The knight raised his sword and hit my shoulder with everything he got. At the same time, an indigo energy surrounded my Cyan Netherworld Sword and penetrated his chest like nothing—24891!
Tsk tsk, it felt absolutely exhilarating to kill someone with Universe Break! With 90% armor penetration, it almost felt like I was chopping vegetables and not magic knights!
Buzz!
The Cyan Netherworld Sword and the dragon's soul circling it abruptly shone brightly. Knowing that I had triggered its pa.s.sive skill, I thrust the weapon forward and watched it explode into a beam of divine energy, annihilating almost a hundred Purple Thunder Cavalrymen in just the blink of an eye!
Not far away from me, Li Chengfeng cut off a Purple Thunder rider's head before looking at me with incredulity. “Is it just me, or is Lu Chen's attack power absolutely bonkers?”
Chaos Moon killed three riders in one move before replying expressionlessly, “He has always been like this…”
However, the battle wasn't actually going in our favor despite my devastating successes. Hundreds of us had died to the cavalry charge in just a moment, and if this continued, only us core members would be left in less than half an hour.
……
It was at this moment we heard tiger roars from both sides. Finally, our reinforcements had arrived!
“Hah!”
A spear pierced through the sea of bodies like an unstoppable beam. Gui Guzi was the first person to clash directly against the Purple Thunder Cavalry and pierce through the enemy's ranks. The roaring Cyan Battle Tiger he was riding was so powerful that it actually knocked over a Purple Thunder Warhorse. Gui Guzi's stats were seriously overpowered after he was boosted by Knight G.o.d.
On the other side, Heaven's Rain dished out a Barrier Break and poked a hole in a team leader's body. Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun then followed up with a Rock Smash that elicited painful screams from the rest of the Purple Thunder Cavalry.
The tables were turned immediately. In less than ten minutes, the pincer attack had killed over 70% of their Purple Thunder Cavalry!
……
Thud thud thud...
Suddenly, I saw a bunch of arrows and Galaxy Storms flying our way. I was apprehensive. The main bulk of Rose of the Holy Domain's army had penetrated our firewall!
“Little Gui, Little Rain, retreat now! Retreat to the walls and reform the line where our priests can heal you! Retreat now!”
Although Gui Guzi and the others were overcome by bloodl.u.s.t, they listened to my order and pulled away from the center of the battlefield. Unfortunately, they were just a bit too late. Dozens of Cyan Tiger Cavalry died to the enemy's firepower just like that.
As we were running back to the walls, I looked behind me and felt a sense of dread. The sheer number of bodies that we left behind had shocked me, and I was starting to realize that this battle would be much harder than expected. Even with an ace cavalry like the Cyan Tiger Cavalry, we couldn't survive the wolves nipping at our legs forever!
