747 Invisible Enemy (1/2)

Boom!

Rumble!

Nearly two hundred cavaliers galloped down the government-made road at their fastest speed.

Happy held the reins in one hand and his sword in the other. He ignored the sight of enemies falling left and right around him. His gaze sparkled, and his heart was already at Yangzhou City, which was now hundreds of miles away, a long time ago.

More than two hours had passed.

Yangzhou City did not send any further news to him.

This was good news. It meant that the battle had not ended. Silver Wolf and the others were still persevering. But that was also bad news. It meant that the people in the branch were in such a tense situation they did not even have the time to send him news. They might be suffering from very great pressure!

He did not want to waste any time at all. Happy sped down the government-made road, and aside from replying to Thunderous Battle and Lin Xiao's messenger pigeons, which occasionally came to him, he will usually not say anything.

”Boss Happy!” Someone from behind him called out to him. ”Boss Happy, there should be around 186 miles left to Yangzhou. Let's rest for a while, or else, our people won't be able to last, and horses won't be able to persevere as well.”

”It's fine, I have another Hoof Shadow,” Happy answered without even turning his head around.

”Boss, you're already logged in for a very long time. It's best that you rest for a while. Look, quite a number of our brothers have only just received the news. Why don't we eat some stuff and go on after half an hour?”

Someone else behind the group spoke up.

It was only at that moment that Happy turned his head and cast them a look.

Silence fell among them. Indeed, there were quite a lot of people who had expectant looks appear on their faces.

The matter at Yangzhou happened too suddenly, and most of them had already logged in for a long time. Right now, they had already rode down the road for more than two hours. Most of them had not eaten anything.

Besides, if this continued, when they reached Yangzhou, these people might have already lost their strength to fight.

”Those who need to rest. Group together and search for a place to rest, then set a time to log in together and continue riding forward! Those who don't need to rest, continue on with me. Make sure to remain alert and keep in contact with each other!”

Once he gave his orders, Happy continued leading the charge and rode down the road.

Truly enough, more than half the people gathered together and stayed near the government-made road.

A small group of people rode on their horses and chased after Happy to continue following him.

A group of people avoided them and moved to the side on the government-made road ahead of them!

”Split into two groups.”

”Hurry up and notify the hall master.”

Right when they finished speaking, the messenger pigeons they prepared a long time ago were released!

*****

A few of the people in the group were elites from nearby branches, and this was the first time they were so close to Happy. After following him for a while, they sensed that Happy was not as cold and unapproachable as they saw in the battle replay. They could not help but urge their horses to quicken their pace and move to his sides.

”Boss, Boss Happy, this time, Towering Palace and Class One Hall went overboard. Why didn't you ask us to mobilize our forces from the nearby cities and attack Yangzhou straightaway?”

”That's right, we only have this bit of people going over, and that's a little too little, don't you think?”

”Once you reach Moksha Realm, you will understand that there are many things in the game that cannot be settled just because one party wants it to be settled.” Happy's words were sent scattering by the fierce wind right when he opened his mouth to speak.

The group of Mu Clan elites behind the team were all confused at first, but as they stared at Happy's back, they seemed to have understood something.

”...Do we have to rely on the strong to settle things? Someone as powerful as you are?”

It was unavoidable that there would be a number of curious youngsters in the group, and they will never be able to resist asking to the bottom of things.

Since he had nothing else to do, Happy did not refuse answering them either, so he answered calmly, ”Strength is one part of it, but sometimes, you have to use this.”

He tapped his own head. ”If we mobilize the manpower in the cities near Yangzhou, while we might be able to bring a greater threat to our enemies in Yangzhou City, it will also weaken our defense lines, and our enemies will have a chance to attack us.”

Silence fell among them.

”No way. Will they still have the time and energy to attack our branch? Towering Palace's headquarters is in Yangzhou City…” There were some people in the group who could not accept his answer.

Happy smiled.
