Chapter 1401: Shifting the Blame

Chapter 1401: Shifting the Blame

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

With Heart of War staring at him, Innocent Child was still unphased.

He shrugged and said, “We have damaged chariots and some are even on critical durability.

Heart of War moved around and grabbed the steering stick of the battle chariot.

The chariot still had Durability?

When they were defending against monsters at the system Stronghold, the chariots that they had completely obliterated their enemies, archer towers and walls. They still had the same number of chariots after the battle and never noticed that they could go decrease in Durability.

“What’s the point of fighting each other?” Lu Li asked nonchalantly.

It would be quite easy for 25 chariots to defeat 15… assuming that the 25 chariots were in good condition. Since they had taken a beating from before, there were a lot of chariots that already had low Durability.

The numbers were presented to Heart of War.

Of the 22 chariots, seven of them were at full health, six of them had more than half, nine of them were less and half and the last three were on critical durability.

The Durability of the chariots would replenish, but that would take more than 2 hours and they had no time to wait that long.

“Cough cough…” Heart of War didn’t know what to do now.

He claimed to be a top 10 commander in the game and would always brag about becoming the best if leading the guild didn’t work out for him. His subordinates obviously raised his ego even further by sucking up to him, saying that he was a genius held back by others.

However, in reality, the Gangnam Royals were only able to maintain their Major Guild status with the sheer number of people, equipment and resources. In a dungeon which limited the number of people, the Gangnam Royals had always struggled to perform.

The genius commander, Heart of War, had no idea what to do now. He looked towards Innocent Child, but he ignored his cry for help.

If Innocent Child knew what to do, he would have gotten rid of this useless guild leader a long time ago.

If he were to give suggestion to Heart of War and it didn’t work out for them, based on his terrible personality, he would definitely try to put the blame on Innocent Child.

Was there anyone else that he could blame?

Besides Innocent Child, the rest of them group were just mercenaries, recently recruited Top Players and other random members. The board of directors might not know much about the actual game, but they were definitely not stupid. They could easily tell if Heart of War is trying to shift the blame.

“Attack, everyone just attack! Attack the three walls at once!” he roared angrily.

When the Stronghold was first released, it was actually still quite unplayable and it wasn’t until a few patches later that it would become more balanced. Chariots were no longer simply brought from the town manager and there would also be a limit on the number of chariots allowed. Lu Li’s clever walls would also be fixed in the future.

Lu Li’s was exploiting a bug on his Stronghold.

It didn’t have a gate!

If all three sides were without a gate, the Stronghold would be like a hedgehog without a weak point. The walls had to be destroyed in order to enter.

In future patches, a Stronghold needed to have a gate, and no matter how good the quality of the gate was, it would always be easier to destroy than walls. Additionally, there would be more than three attack points. The battles would become more free and realistic, allowing players to do anything they can think of, like throwing up a hook and climbing.

However, the Gangnam Royals had to deal with Ruling Sword right now.

Although the trajectory of the defending and attack chariots looked the same, the effects certainly weren’t.

Chariots with a high ground advantage clearly dealt more damage.

Innocent Child held his staff and leaned casually against a tree, uninterested in the battle.

If he was the one in command, instead of splitting up the chariots into three groups, he would spread them out in two lines and focus fire on one of the walls. Although the defending chariots had the power advantage, the attackers had the advantage of having more space to work with.

Lu Li assigned 15 chariots on top of the walls, but realistically, only around 10 could fit.

This sounded simple, but he still could not guarantee victory against Lu Li because he knew how intelligent he was. In his eyes, Lu Li was the real weapon that separated Ruling Sword from Glory Capital.

The ending had already been decided and their fate had been sealed.

He wondered whether he should start looking to leave Gangnam Royals.

Lu Li split the Chariots into three groups. Their priority was to destroy the chariots with low durability then work their way up to their healthiest chariots.

“Why, why is this happening?!” Heart of War’s chariot was destroyed and he fell hard onto the ground.

Although he had 22 chariots to start with, when the battle had barely begun, he was already down three. He could only watch as more were destroyed.

3:0!

4:1!

6:2!

11:4!

13:5!

When Ruling Swords had lost five chariots, the Gangnam Royals had already sacrificed 13. Heart of War was almost in tears; they had less chariots than Ruling Swords now.

In the end, the Gangnam Royals were completely destroyed. Ruling Swords had two chariots left on low durability, but one more that was completely untouched.

They lost!

The reports came in – two chariots from the top lane and three from the bottom lane had survived.

Heart of War was more frustrated at the fact that they had remaining chariots because having five low-durability chariots was completely useless.

The lane that Heart of War was in had the biggest advantage in terms of numbers.

However, they were completely wiped compared to the other two lanes.

What did this say about Heart of War?

This showed just how useless he was as a commander; there was no way he could shift the blame to anyone else.
