Chapter 1120 - Chivalry Alliance, Silver Wolf (1/2)
The inner city of Song House was not far from the port. The walls were tall and sturdy, and it provided a wide field of vision if someone stood on the wall. The entire surface of the sea could be taken in with just one glance.
At that moment, there were thousands of elites who came from various sects everywhere in the game coming and going on the city wall. They stood together with the soldiers of Song House, and there were more than ten thousand of them. They put on an incredibly grand sight, and the air above Song House was filled with a pre-war atmosphere.
The heroes moving around would occasionally run into familiar faces in the crowd, and some might have only met each other for the first time. Either way, they still exchanged pleasantries with each other, and it was incredibly lively.
Only a group of people stationed themselves at a segment of the wall and were quiet. They did not show any intention to talk to others and just quietly observed the bed of reefs appearing and disappearing because of the waves beyond the island. They also kept an eye on the situation beyond the horizon with stern expressions.
Plenty of people on the city walls managed to recognize who this group of people were.
Lin Xiao and Red Dust, the alliance master and vice alliance master of Chivalry Alliance.
A month ago, they were the third strongest sect in the Chinese server who had nearly fallen apart during the operation to fight against Class One Hall.
At that time, a few ten thousand Chivalry Alliance members had crossed Changjiang and were prepared to enter Beijing, but Evil Emperor had reached the Chinese plains at that time, and Dream Clouds also revealed her hidden trump card—the members from the twelve Beijing sects.
At that time, all the Chinese players’ gazes were focused on Wind Assault Tower and Beijing.
Practically no one paid attention to the situation at Chivalry Alliance.
However, Wind Assault Tower was not the only one who suffered the most terrible losses. At the very least, some of the people from Wind Assault Tower managed to break out of the encirclement, but Chivalry Alliance had not known about this situation at all, and to provide reinforcements to Wind Assault Tower, tens of thousands of their members were attacked by the twelve Beijing sects, Blood Alliance, and Class One Hall while they were on their way to Beijing. They were caught off guard, and most of their people died before they were sent to be resurrected in nearby cities. The army of tens of thousands were broken into pieces, and their headquarters was even nearly uprooted later on by Class One Hall.
After all, the foundation of Chivalry Alliance was not as great as Wind Assault Tower.
The army of tens of thousands from Chivalry Alliance was torn to pieces, and they were also fighting in foreign land. At that time, they sank into a situation that was even worse and grim than Wind Assault Tower.
After the people from Wild Wolves appeared, Chivalry Alliance, now fallen apart, simply did not have the ability to gather its forces together in foreign land.
Many people could not see any future for themselves in this battle.
Then, on the next two days, Chivalry Alliance was on the brink of destruction.
However, the swift change in the situation of the Chinese plains caused Chivalry Alliance to be able to see hope, but at the same time, they felt dejected.
Up to this point, Chivalry Alliance could only be considered to have recovered a little of the core of their strength, but their power was far from the time when they were at their greatest. Right now, Lin Xiao and Red Dust were the only ones who retained their titles as top-class elites in Chivalry Alliance. Their sect had already fallen to merely being a large sect.
Lovely Land ruled over the north of the Chinese plains, and Wind Assault Tower had taken over most of the resources in the south. Chivalry Alliance could not recover to its former strength within a short period of time with the resource points remaining.
It was precisely because of this reason and because many people had overlooked Chivalry Alliance because of Lovely Land’s rise to power, Wind Assault Tower’s shift of its battlefield, and how Chivalry Alliance had instantly crumbled during that battle, that Lin Xiao and Red Dust were forced to personally lead their forces to fight at the frontlines so that they could fight for more resources and fortuitous chances for their sect. They had to start from zero now.
“Wandering Know-it-all’s information is very accurate. Look, the ship from the evil cult is here now.”
In the small circle made by the aces from Chivalry Alliance, Red Dust and Lin Xiao faced the raging waves. The vague shadow of ships had already appeared within their field of vision, but their tone was not as excited and nervous as those around them on the wall. They were as indifferent as ever, and they spoke with the tone of an onlooker. They appeared to be incredibly calm.
“I knew that Wandering Know-it-all wouldn’t give up on his reputation just because he joined Lovely Land, but I’m curious. Why did he give us this information? Just because we promised him that we would join Happy’s Imperial Army? Does he wish for Chivalry Alliance to become strong, or does he only wish for both of us to become strong?”
There was a faint, mocking tone in Red Dust’s voice.
This man had gone through years of hardships in World of Martial Arts, and he was now nearly thirty. Even though the lines of his face still allowed others to see his former handsomeness and heroic look, now, after this man who was known as Red Dust Duke in the past went through the dissolution of Chivalry Sect, two dangers of the Chinese server, and two major crises in Chivalry Alliance, he lost the easy smiles he once had. There was an ancient and grave look in his eyes that said he had already seen through the workings of the world.
“Regardless of what he’s thinking, at least his appearance has allowed Chivalry Alliance to avoid destruction. At the same time, he pushed Class One Hall into a corner, and Wild Wolves has also been chased out of the Chinese server.” Compared to Red Dust, Alliance Master Lin Xiao looked much more determined. He stared at the ships riding the waves to approach the island. There were more than one hundred of them. During that time, he simply allowed his hero’s bandana and his robes to flutter in the violent wind.
“Big Brother Lin, do you never regret anything?”
Red Dust turned his head around and cast a deep glance at Lin Xiao. Then, he stared at the sea while he spoke with a calm tone, “While we were at Chivalry Sect, we allowed Wind Void to take over the position of sect master. In the end, Chivalry Sect did not manage to escape from Dream Clouds’ plan to break us up. Right now, because of how we always prioritize chivalry, Chivalry Alliance abandoned everything to provide reinforcements to Wind Assault Tower, and now, we ended up in this state.”
Lin Xiao sighed.
Over this period of time, Wind Assault Tower had occupied a large amount of resource points in the south and did not take care of Chivalry Alliance’s development. In the end, it brought about large discontent in Red Dust.
Lin Xiao thought about this for a moment before he sighed deeply. “Everyone has different principles when it comes to how they conduct themselves in society. Dream Clouds can resort to every means for her benefits. She can even work together with Wild Wolves, but I have my own principles as well. I prioritize chivalry, and I am willing to sacrifice myself for my friends without regrets. Red Dust, you also have certain qualities in you that you refuse to chance, and that is why we’re together. It’s also why we have a group of people who have the same ideals with us gathered beside us. It’s why Chivalry Alliance exists.”
