Chapter 467 - Friction (2/2)
Horny Potter Squatter glanced at the enemy’s forces. He spotted 7 Thieves entering into stealth and disappearing from sight. “Mages, Priests, be careful!”
When the surrounding players noticed the atmosphere changing, they retreated to the sidelines.
“What are we going to do? We’re heavily outnumbered.” Happy Hermit knitted his brows.
“I’ve already informed Watchful Snail. We just have to hold out for a few minutes and reinforcements will arrive!” Horny Potter Squatter said. Battle was unavoidable. They could only do their best to survive.
Dancing Moon Fairy laughed. “Happy Hermit, Squatman, several of my friends from Sapphire Shrine are running the Underground Mines right now. They’ll be out very soon.”
“Sapphire Shrine? That’s great! But please, stop calling me Squatman,” Horny Squatter Potter said with a helpless expression.
Dancing Moon Fairy simply answered with a playful smile.
Asura glanced at Horny Potter Squatter’s team before finally settling his gaze on Happy Hermit.
“Long time no see,” Asura said with a dull smile.
“You two know each other?” Horny Potter Squatter asked in surprise.
“We used to run dungeons together all the time in a different game. That was a long time ago. It’s different now,” Happy Hermit explained with an awkward expression.
Asura definitely didn’t come with the intention of catching up with an old friend.
The players from both sides locked eyes. Battle could break out at any moment.
Taking advantage of their superior numbers, the players from Alliance of Mages closed in on Horny Potter Squatter’s group in a half circle.
Horny Potter Squatter’s group couldn’t flee. Else their formation would collapse, and they would suffer even heavier losses. It was better to stand their ground.
“Asskickers United trash, you won’t escape today,” one of the Thieves on the opposing side taunted.
“Who are you calling trash? I seem to recall it was your side that fled with their tails tucked between their legs during the Cripps Stronghold siege!” Horny Potter Squatter fired back.
“Y-y-you! Don’t get cocky! You guys just got lucky that time!”
Both sides immediately entered a shouting match, throwing out all sorts of vulgar insults.
Asura glanced around. The encirclement was already complete, and the Thieves had sealed off all escape paths. Time was of the essence. Not wanting to wait for Asskickers United’s reinforcements to arrive, he gave the signal. “Kill them!”
Several Warriors from Alliance of Mages rushed forward while the Mages raised their staffs and fired off a volley of spells.
“Warriors, hold your ground. Priests, Paladins, support them!” Horny Potter Squatter said, then turned to Happy Hermit and gave him a meaningful glance.
Happy Hermit nodded, then entered stealth. He and Horny Potter Squatter had known each other for so long, they no longer needed words to communicate. He knew exactly what Horny Potter Squatter wanted him to do.
“Don’t falter, we have reinforcements arriving soon. Fucking hell, if they want a fight, we’ll give it to them! If you end up dying, run back to your corpse!” Horny Potter Squatter said. He resolved to see this fight through to the bitter end.
A spell whizzed forward and struck one of the Warriors in Horny Potter Squatter’s team squarely in the chest. He was sent flying back before crashing into the ground.
Happy Hermit snuck around to the back of Alliance of Mage’s forces. He struck one of the Priests in the back of the head with Concussive Blow. The Priest collapsed dead on the ground several attacks later.
A shower of spells immediately bombarded Happy Hermit. On the brink of death, he quickly drank an Intermediate Heath Potion, then made his escape with Gale Step.
1. The characters for Horny Potter Squatter’s name are 蹲坑思美女. A more literal translation would be Squatting on the Toilet Thinking About Pretty Girls. The first mental image that came to my mind was The Thinker on a toilet, so I initially decided to go with Horny Squatter. But after asking around for a good name and at the behest of Ren, I decided to go with Horny Potter Squatter.
