779 Chapter 779 - The Feint and The Main Attack (1/2)
\”Just how many is a lot?\” Sword Demon and the others knew that Vast Lushness's spyglass was a powerful tool, and they had already taken the initiative to locate her when they needed to confirm the reconnaissance.
\”It's just people all around us. It seems like we have been surrounded. With such numbers, it is most definitely not just 1 or 2 guilds here. I reckon it must be the guilds that were defeated in the recent City Wars that have gathered in hopes of taking their revenge on us,\” Vast Lushness truly had plenty of fighting experience in games.
\”D*mn them all. How unbecoming!\” War Without Wounds expressed his indignation. This sort of situation was like they were willing to gamble but refuse to admit the loss. It was utterly lacking in character.
\”This is a one time challenge,\” Sword Demon's expression was grim. \”Currently, our guild is very much the target of the public's ire. We most definitely cannot back down from this fight, as the moment we show ourselves as weak, the players in Yunduan City would know that even though Extremely Heaven Defying has control of six city Precincts, joining us would not be a good thing. We might all be killed in the end, but we must most definitely make these attackers pay an even more painful price for their actions. We need to let the players in Yunduan City know that trying to carve up Extremely Heaven Defying would most definitely not be a happy occasion.\”
During crunch time, Sword Demon would not be giving a superficial speech like what he did during the bonfire night party before. Every word he uttered was clean and crisp, directed straight toward the listener's hearts. Players who heard him speak could feel a thought come to all their minds: That's right, we definitely cannot let others think we are pushovers. Even if we are to die, we have to strike fear into the hearts of our enemies, because we would most definitely not die in vain!
\”Well said, boss Sword Demon!\” Nobody had any idea who was the one that shouted this, but a round of applause thundered from it, with even others who directly gave out a roar into the night sky. It was all thanks to Sword Demon, a man who would always look a little dull on every other occasion, along with the atmosphere that permeated, that this gathering tonight would actually come to such a head.
\”We'll go with the formation we used during the City Wars event. Organize into your battle teams!\” Sword Demon commanded.
The teams were swiftly formed up. It had only been a day since the fight in the city had ended, so everyone still remembered how they were organized then.
\”Strive to break this encirclement and seize the initiative. We'll turn around right after and dish out the pain!\” Sword Demon declared.
The players echoed his sentiment with resounding battle cries. Furthermore, these players that were encircling them had finally appeared in everyone's field of vision, while Young Master Han had already walked up right beside Vast Lushness and reached his hand out to her.
Vast Lushness was truly left without any choice. Even though Young Master Han would very quickly return the spyglass once he was done using it, the frequency of which he wanted to borrow the item was really high, which honestly gave her the sense that she was the one who was borrowing the item.
Despite having such a thought, Vast Lushness still handed the spyglass over to Young Master Han.
Young Master Han raised the spyglass and looked around, and immediately sent out a message through the guild channel, \”They are about 200 meters away, standing about 1 meter apart from each other. It's about a 10 rank deep formation, meaning we're up against around 12,000 - 15,000 players.\”
\”The closer they get, the deeper their formation would run. We should attempt our blitz on their ranks as soon as we can. Everyone, get ready,\” Sword Demon yelled.
\”Warriors to the front, Mages to the back,\” Young Master Han said.
\”Priests will be in the center while the Knights will act as the rearguard,\” Sword Demon added.
\”Archers in both flanks,\”
\”Thieves get into Stealth and scatter.\”
\”Why are there two people giving commands….\” The players of Extremely Heaven Defying were very confused as they quietly whispered to one another.
\”But their commands are linked…\”
\”Or perhaps complementary?\” They were all wondering, nevertheless acting in accordance.
\”Two-man commands huh….\” Deep Waters and Coco smiled at each other when they heard the players from Extremely Heaven Defying discuss it.
\”What familiar memories, but it's unfortunate that the two of us won't hear it anymore,\” Coco sighed with regret.
\”But we can still lend a hand,\” Deep Waters took out his bow and sent a message over to Sword Demon. \”I'm sure you'll need a few teams to do a feint attack, right? Make it more difficult for the enemy to shrink in on us, even better if we create a bit of chaos in the process.\”
\”We're already doing that. Are you and Coco leading a team too?\” Sword Demon asked.
\”Sure! But how would we be able to hear the commands?\” Deep Waters asked.
\”Of course you will be able to, we're a new guild!\” Sword Demon said.
Deep Waters knew what he meant. A new guild meant the members were not familiar with each other, so that meant the guild leader would have to directly appoint team captains. Everyone was uncertain of the captain's capabilities for the moment, so there would not be issues of submitting or otherwise.
Deep Waters very quickly got a party invite, and the party leader had already transferred leadership to him. What followed was a torrent of exclamation over the party channel, \”Ah? Deep Waters? Are you that Deep Waters? The one who was once among the ranks of the Five Unyielding Experts?\”
Deep Waters faintly answered to the affirmative, \”Yes, that's me.\”
\”Ah!!\” All the players in the party clamored.
