Chapter 897 - Aid in Fighting (2/2)

The person who came over was indeed Class One Hall’s branch master for Aru City. He was a core member for the organization, and he had logged off briefly to rest just now. When he received a call, he immediately logged in without another one, and his breathing was still uneven.

“Shut up!

“You! Tell me! What’s going on outside?!”

He strode down the stairs and pointed at a person to speak.

That person was rather sharp. “Our brothers and sisters training on the training grounds outside the city have all been attacked, and they just returned after being revived. The two resource spots outside the city have also been attacked. We don’t know how many people died just yet, but I estimate that there are a few hundred who did.”

The branch master was stunned speechless. When he heard that number, his face instantly turned red with rage.

“How many people did Mu Clan send?”

When he logged off, he had clearly heard the spies on the plains telling him that everything was normal and that the four sects had mobilized one hundred thousand cavaliers in preparation to attack the Mongolian camp.

If they wanted to kill hundreds of people within a short amount of time, they will need quite a lot of people.

“I don’t know, but I heard from the brothers and sisters who died that there were only around ten people who went to the resource spots. Our hall members outside the city were rather scattered, but they say that they saw more than two hundred people who showed up.”

When he heard that the number was not actually high, the branch master immediately calmed down and became at ease. “What’s the headquarters’ reply to the situation.”

“They told us to wait for you to log in and investigate the number of people Mu Clan sent, as well as their goal. I heard that the Town of Kui, Kuo Ma City, and Barbican are also attacked. The hall master told you to make a decision after you logged in.”

“Got it.” The branch master felt confident in handling the situation now. After a moment of thought, he gave his order. “They might be causing a diversion.

“You, mobilize around ten of our members and guard the four city gates.

“Vice Branch Master Huang, lead one hundred members to investigate the situation at the ore mines.

“Others, come with me to search for those Mu Clan bastards.

“Those who are injured, stay here.”

“We’re having everyone leave? Branch master, isn’t it too risky to do that?”

“Since the Town of Kui is already attacked, there is no mistaking this. Mu Clan has decided to work with the four sects to cause such a huge ruckus on the plains with such a great fanfare, they’ve definitely decided to sacrifice their minor interests to safeguard their major interests. They must have decided to give up on the Emperor’s Announcement event beforehand and break out of our encirclement from the north. They attacked us to hold back the people in Aru City and confuse us. Kuo Ma City and Barbican are decoys, that’s why…”

The branch master then shouted confidently, “They definitely won’t have a lot of people stationed outside Aru City! Damn it, they’ve persecuted us so viciously twenty days ago that we’ve been completely humiliated!

“Brothers and sisters, this time, we’ll pay them back twice what they did to us! Let’s go! We’ll go outside the city and search for those bastards!”

His logical analysis immediately incited the group of Class One Hall members, who had been low on morale just a moment ago.

The group was excited and worked up.

Hundreds of people rushed out of the branch in a mighty stream.

But they did not know that this scene was seen by a group of people who had already snuck into a restaurant.

There were more than twenty people over there, and Chivalry Sect’s Lin Xiao was their leader.

He lifted his wine cup in silence while he watched the people from Class One Hall move through the streets grandly. Then, they put on strange smiles.

“Haha! Vice Sect Master Lin, you really have great foresight! They’re all gone now, and there’s only an empty shell of a branch left, along with some injured members.”

“Those bastards think we’re only here to bother them? They’ll definitely not be able to expect that we’re breaking out of the place and also harassing them. We’re not letting their branch go.”

“Alright, get ready. Once Little North and his group engage with that group of people, we’ll immediately attack!” Lin Xiao sat in the best room of the restaurant with a level-headed mind. His wide shoulders and heroic back exuded a rarely felt but faint killing intent.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time!
