361 Beat Them At Their Own Game (1/2)
The death rate at the first level of the royal mausoleum was always the highest.
All those who entered the royal mausoleum were immediately attacked by Knife-throwing Ninjas. The ones who entered first would find that all firepower was concentrated on them, and they were usually the ones to die!
In the ten or so days since the royal mausoleum had been opened to the public, many people intentionally avoided being the first to enter the royal mausoleum and allowed some rash hotheads or people who believed themselves to be good to enter ahead of them.
Those who entered first would basically all die. Almost no one survived it.
Even though Knife-throwing Ninjas were just in Blessed Realm, the damage of the splitting throwing knives was extraordinary, and the rapid and frequent attacks were something that even One Circle, who had high level defensive martial arts, found hard to withstand. And if he had a hard time, then it was even more so for normal players.
There was no hiding in the first hall of the royal mausoleum. After just a few rounds of attacks, almost everyone's body fortifications would be torn through, or their qi would depleted, and they would die.
Lu Mingyue had forced Happy to be the first to enter the royal mausoleum and then guarded the entrance. He wanted to ensure that Happy stayed inside for a long time and suffered a lot of the Knife-throwing Ninjas' attacks.
Even though Happy had an astonishing defense based on the fight just then, Lu Mingyue felt that it was not as strong as it seemed. He believed that Happy still had his limits, which was why even if Ghost Face Wall could not kill him, he would still need to use up a lot of his medicinal pills.
Lu Mingyue wanted to use this chance to deal a huge blow to Happy.
It had to be said, Lu Mingyue's scheme was incredibly sinister!
But he would consider the possibility that Happy had already thought about this when he entered the royal mausoleum because many similar cases had happened in his previous life.
When challenging the royal mausoleum, many sects worked together to lock down the entrance so that the first group of people who entered would die. Then, once the goal of dwindling their enemy number was accomplished, they would also enter in an orderly fashion.
When Lu Mingyue attacked even more aggressively than before, Happy could already tell what he was thinking.
But he did not reveal his plan. He just decided to beat Lu Mingyue at his own game!
He entered the royal mausoleum, and the light around him dimmed. Happy soon heard the sounds of throwing knives tearing through the air! There were many of them, and they came nonstop from ahead of him!
Boom!
He activated his Golden Bell Cocoon with a bang. An ancient and simple golden bell blocked the knives. Clanging sounds rang out nonstop. All sorts of throwing knives were instantly intercepted and fell to the ground, shattered, or changed shape.
Happy did not dare to stop for long.
He switched to his Silver Aquatic Dragon Set straight away. He grabbed his Noble Sword, ignored the countless dazzlingly white throwing knives charging at his face, and rushed at Ghost Face Wall at full speed.
Boom!
With one unhindered swing, he left behind a terrifying crack on Ghost Face Wall. He could vaguely see a group of Knife-throwing Ninja's indifferent expressions behind it.
He instantly delivered a few more slashes without slowing down. A hole that could allow people to enter swiftly appeared on Ghost Face Wall.
Once Seven Stars Sword Styles reached Grandmaster Realm, its damage reached 2,500 points, and Noble Sword's own attack was at five hundred. When Happy activated Mystical Realm, his attack increased by 30%, and his damage reached around 3,900 points.
Yet after making the hole, he did not go through it.
He swung his sword, and a sword glare charged into the gap where it struck the ninjas behind Ghost Face Wall. Two Knife-throwing Ninjas fell on their faces the moment they turned around. Happy used that chaos he created to go in.
The hall instantly fell silent.
Meanwhile, in the tunnel, more than half of the Knife-throwing Ninjas died. Once Happy activated Wind Spirit Spin with his Seven Stars Sword Styles, not a single Knife-throwing Ninja could withstand a second hit from him.
Happy had noticed when he was outside that there were plenty of good players who came to the royal mausoleum, which meant that he had many competitors. He thus did not intend to waste his time. He slaughtered his way through in one breath and killed all forty or so Knife-throwing Ninjas in the tunnel.
His Golden Bell Cocoon remained unharmed, and he quickly picked up his loot before vanishing from the tunnel like a phantom.
Time was money!
*****
On his way, aside from killing two rather large groups of ninjas, Happy never stopped moving. He moved forward at his fastest speed to the trap—Life and Death Circuit.
The side halls and small halls were left behind in perfect condition.
