Chapter 823 - Praise from the Emperor (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The cavaliers who came from the direction of the main camp spread through the land, and there were more than fifty thousand of them. When they spread out, they still looked incredibly magnificent, and each battalion consisted of around five thousand cavaliers!

The armored cavaliers thundered against the ground, and the ground trembled!

While he fled before the main cavalier unit, Happy felt incredibly gloomy.

Even though five thousand cavaliers did not give off a presence as if they could spread through the land, the momentum that came charging at him fiercely was still very destructive, and it was not one where one person or a few people could hope to withstand.

Happy continued riding forward.

He rode in front of a battalion of cavaliers who were the closest to his side. He was neither too close nor too far away from them.

At that moment, Happy was already not far away from the Chinese camp.

He perked his ears, and he could even hear the faint horn blares coming from the horizon in the distance. This was the sign that he was already very close to the Chinese camp!

If he paid close attention, he could even see the hoof prints from the horses on the plains that had not vanished, and even though they were scattered all over the place, all of them pointed to the main camp.

It was clear that someone had been lingering around this place just now, but had been scared away beforehand by the cavalier battalion behind Happy.

‘I heard that the intensity of a battalion on the first day is just around one thousand to two thousand cavaliers. Am I really so unlucky that they still refuse to split up even now?’

Happy will occasionally turn his head around to check the situation of the Mongolian cavaliers behind him.

He originally thought that the five thousand cavaliers behind him will continue splitting up, and hence, he did not expect that even after he had been fleeing for more than ten minutes, the cavaliers behind him still did not show any signs of dividing any further.

Five thousand people…

‘Am I supposed to compete with other people for them?’ Even though Happy was confident that he could get most of the points, he was not used to displaying his full strength in front of others.

Regardless of whether it was Shifting Stars, Arhat Body, or Ten Thousand Swords, he did not want to show them off in front of too many people. After all, the martial arts in the Chinese plains countered each other.

Once others knew of all his tricks, he will no longer be strong, and the mysterious veil about him will be revealed, just like One Emperor.

The One Emperor in his previous life seldom showed off his skills in front of others. Hence, in Happy’s eyes, he was mysterious, powerful, and unfathomable, just like an undefeatable god of war.

But in this life, One Emperor appeared too many times in front of him, and Happy’s understanding of him increased. Happy also pondered over his techniques one by one, which also allowed him to form corresponding strategies against them, causing him to gradually become less wary of him. And ever since the battle at the summit of Mount Tai, Happy was finally able to catch up to One Emperor, who had been building up his prestige in his heart for four years.

Happy longed for opponents, but he did not want his opponents to learn of all his skills.

‘Should I leave?’

Happy hesitated!

At that moment, a mighty and awe-inspiring system notification spread through the world.

“By the will of the gods, His Majesty will now declare his orders!

“Commander Langye of the Embroidered Uniform Guards has been ordered by General Luo to enter deep into the enemy camps, and he has successfully intercepted the Mongolian army’s supply route! He burned dozens of food supplies belonging to the Mongolian army and destroyed a supply unit protected by one thousand people! He has committed his first meritorious service since the war began, and His Majesty has decided to give him a special reward! He will now make an exception of the rules and promote him to a Class Six Official! The marshall has also given him an additional reward by promoting him to the rank of a senior-rank captain! He is allowed to stay at the borders to continue killing enemies!”

‘…Langye?’

Happy was stunned.

At the same time, almost all Chinese players heard the system notification, and all of them were flabbergasted.

‘He actually managed to find the Mongolian army’s supply route and even destroyed it on the first day?! That guy… his luck is so good…’

But what caused many of the sects to be shocked was his reward as a Class Six Official and a senior-rank captain.

Many of the players were still fighting to earn points to get the position of a junior-rank captain and middle-rank captain, but Langye had managed to get the position of a senior-rank captain right on the first day. That was an important position where he got to lead more than six hundred people. As long as he could form a cavalier unit, he could trigger the quest to harass the enemy flank and even get many of the quests that were still not revealed to others yet.

Happy said nothing, but he instantly scowled.
