Chapter 1523: Air-sniping

Chapter 1523: Air-sniping

I lowered my upper body a little. When I was 50 meters away from Purple Thunder, a mini dragon snaked up the Xuanyuan Sword’s blade before I threw it straight at him. Purple Thunder was a super-tier assassin with at least 700k base HP. Assuming that it was increased by 6 to 9 times higher due to bard buffs, card buffs and more, he could have as much as 4 million HP. Therefore, Beiming Xue might not be able to kill him in one hit.

Bang!

1,387,664!

As I thought, Beiming Xue’s close-range shot only managed to delete 30% of his HP.

Swhoosh!

The Xuanyuan Sword drew a gorgeous arc across many unfortunate torsos before plunging into Purple Thunder’s heart.

2,193,287!

1,128,734!

The man let out a groan and slowly collapsed to the ground. He even dropped a pair of red leather-armor wristguards that Beiming Xue picked up.

……

"Dammit…"

Red Hot Vortex looked deeply hurt by his friend’s death. Rage fueling his arms with tremendous strength, he swung his axe 5 times in quick succession and actually managed to knock both Gui Guzi and his dragon ten meters to the back. After Gui Guzi knocked Red Hot Vortex away with his Ghostblade Halberd, he commented, "Damn, this guy attacks like crazy the second Purple Thunder dies. You two are gay for each other, aren’t you?"

"You’re gay!"

Red Hot Vortex responded by attacking even harder.

Pa! After I caught the Xuanyuan Sword, I spread open my left palm and dropped an Ancient Seal at the group of Gold Cavalry behind me. While tanking countless hits from every direction, I said in the party channel, "Teamwork time, people. Beiming, stun Red Hot Vortex with Shock Arrow. Chengfeng, Little Gui, let’s work together and take him out!"

"Okay!"

Beiming Xue’s Shock Arrow was in flight before she even voiced her reply!

Bang!

923,774!

Not only was it a successful stun, the Shock Arrow triggered the Xuanming Flame and scorched all nearby Japanese players.

I couldn’t reach Red Hot Vortex in time, so I fired Myriad Swords Obliteration and another Ancient Seal at him instead. Gui Guzi also cast a long-range Death Flurry that skewered the JGL Hall of Famer. Finally, Li Chengfeng struck him with a powerful Barrier Break before ripping his halberd out of the torso, nearly cutting the berserker in half. Groaning, Red Hot Vortex fell to his knees before dropping a sinister-looking helmet.

Li Chengfeng was picking up the loot when a bunch of Touches of the Dragonkiss slammed into his body and knocked him sideways.

Swhoosh!

At the same time, a freezing sword thrust into Li Chengfeng’s side. It was none other than Cyan Frost’s Freezing Slash!

Crack!

The dragon warrior failed to dodge the skill this time, so he lost 1.1 million HP and became encased in ice for several seconds. Cyan Frost’s Attack definitely wasn’t on the low side.

Distracted, Gui Guzi was ambushed from above by Red Maple and sent crashing to the ground by a Fire God Flurry. As if on cue, countless arrows and magical spells fell from the sky and dealt massive damage to both him and our backliners. It was nothing Gui Guzi hadn’t experienced before, but Beiming Xue, Lian Xin, Murong Mingyue and Pure Love quickly fell to low health.

Panicking, I shouted, "Little Gui, Shennong Tastes Grass now! Your cooldown should be reset by now!"

While Gui Guzi was casting the skill, I dashed in front of Li Chengfeng and activated Profound Armor. I was able to parry the blow that would’ve killed Li Chengfeng and elicited an exclamation of surprise from Cyan Frost, "Impressive strength…"

That was what she said, but she wasn’t one to give up so easily. She followed up with a powerful Blaze Flurry!

I simply raised my arm and blocked the attack with the Dihai Shield. Two damage numbers rose above my head—

212,873!

192,837!

Cyan Frost blurted as her eyes widened like saucers, "Impossible! H-how do you have so much Defense?"

I simply shot her a smile, pressed my blade against her chest armor, and executed Burning Blade Slash that sent her and her mount flying. Her mount vanished in midair because the skill had deleted her last chunk of mount tenacity. The Ice Knight left behind a trail of damage numbers in the air—

1,526,736!

1,937,473!

2,213,641!

When she saw how much HP she had left, Cyan Frost muttered with a forehead of cold sweat, "Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand is as scary as ever…"

"Watch out, Cyan Frost!"

Red Maple shouted an urgent warning to her, but it was too late. Cyan Frost looked up just in time to see a gorgeous knightress stabbing her with a sword aura and deleting her last chunk of HP.

Her killer was none other than our guild leader, He Yi.

He Yi scooped up Cyan Frost’s dropped necklace from the ground before dodging a shower of arrows and magical spells. While doing so, she said triumphantly in the party channel, "Heehee, I did it…"

A low-health Li Chengfeng grinned. "The guild leader is formidable…"

Everyone’s HP had fallen below par again, so I hurriedly cast the Life skill of the Xuanyuan Art to heal everyone. The immediate goal was to survive until reinforcements arrived after all.

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh…

White light enveloped everyone and restored 70% HP to their health bar, temporarily rejuvenating them. Murong Mingyue complained while waving her scepter again and again, "This is too much… this isn’t a battle where Moon Dew and I alone are enough at all…"

I replied, "We’re doing a special quest, so. Also, we can’t possibly ask our players to spend half the day escorting us until we are certain that the enemy’s ambush is beyond our ability to handle. They’re our players, not our babysitters. And what if the Japanese decided that it’s not worth the trouble and never ambushed us in the first place? I guarantee you that our Reputation will suffer greatly if we do that…"

……

It was at this moment He Yi shot the supply carts a glance and warned, "Oh no, the foremost supply cart has fallen below 40% durability…"

"I know. What the fuck’s keeping Chaos Moon?" Li Chengfeng flew round and round the supply carts and killed everyone in his way, but there were simply too many enemies.

Captain Morn, the NPC was fighting alongside us too, but his HP had already fallen below 20%. Unless the Japanese suddenly decided to stop attacking him, he was probably going to die very soon. His survival meant little to us though. After all, our job was to protect the supply carts, not him. If he died, then he would’ve died performing his duty, so whatever…

Red Maple was circling us like a hawk in the sky. I shot him a glance before clenching my fists, "There are only a handful of JGL Hall of Famers left. Chengfeng, try baiting Red Maple into attacking us if you can. Beiming, cast Well of the Abyss the second Red Maple enters within 40 yards of us. Lian Xin, freeze him the moment Well of the Abyss vanishes. Chengfeng and I will handle everything after that[1]!"

"Mn!"

Unfortunately, Red Maple seemed to realize our plan and never came close enough for us to execute it. He simply hovered in the sky and ordered in a cool voice, "All units, attack them with everything you've got. They’re going to collapse any moment now…"

"That motherfucker…!"

I tried to fly into the sky to take him out, but He Yi caught my boot and chided me, "Where do you think you’re going? We need you to protect the convoy! Did you not realize that two of our supply carts are close to being destroyed?"

Me: "..."

……

It felt like time was passing at a snail’s pace. Finally, when another 3 minutes had passed, a familiar thundering noise resounded from the forest. Everyone recognized it immediately as the galloping of hooves!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

A shrubbery was crushed under a boot as a general carrying a giant flaming axe ran up to us. He greeted us with a hearty laugh and asked, "Lu Chen, Li, Little Gui! Did y’all miss me!"

Li Chengfeng’s eyes lit up. "Hell yes, we missed you to death! Now help us take these fuckers out already!"

Beside High Fighting Spirits was Chaos Moon with the Dihai Blade in hand and a sea of Dragonlight Cavalry behind her. Finally, our reinforcements had arrived! What an exciting moment it was!

I immediately pointed at the enemy and ordered, "Cut through from the center and prevent the enemy from making contact with the supply carts! It’ll be all for naught if they manage to destroy it! Also, tell Xu Yang to hit the enemy from the flank!"

"Understood!"

……

The Dragon Soul–empowered Dragonlight Cavalry Charged toward the enemy fearlessly, forcing the enemy’s Gold Cavalry and Holy Mages to defend themselves. The enemies surrounding the supply carts immediately lessened by a considerable degree. While the reinforcements were keeping the enemy’s main forces at bay, the ten of us focused on cleaning up the remnants near the supply carts and succeeded a few minutes later. Even Red Maple had flown away because he knew the first thing I would do after I was done with his underlings was to kill him. He also knew that his chances of escaping Li Chengfeng and my combined attack was almost zero. After all, Red Maple didn’t have a nonuple damage weapon like the Dragon Tooth Arm and so couldn’t threaten either of us.

It was at this moment Copper Spear ordered icily, "Holy Mages, form a defensive formation and stop the Dragonlight Cavalry’s charge! The time to realize our objective has arrived—let this place be the grave of the so-called number one cavalry on the continent!"

It wasn’t an empty threat. 50k Holy Mages quickly formed a square formation before firing their spells at our charging players!

High Fighting Spirits and several thousand Dragonlight Cavalry managed to break through the line of fire and even kill around 3,000 mages, but it came at the cost of nearly 2,000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen lives. As it turned out, not even the Dragonlight Cavalry was strong enough to withstand the Holy Mages’ bombardment!

Copper Spear couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the floor of Dragonlight Cavalry bodies. "Do you understand our power now? Hmph! They all say that Ancient Sword’s cavalrymen are number one in the world, but so what? They’re still dead dogs before our mage formation! Come on! Charge us again! Let’s see who runs out of troops first!"

High Fighting Spirits’ eyes were bloodshot, and veins were popping all over his face. He roared, "That little fuck!"

Chaos Moon shook her head helplessly. "Oh no, that idiot is about to go on a rampage again…"

I yelled at him from the sky, "Fighting Spirits, stop!"

The berserker looked up and asked, "What is it? Do you have a plan?"

I nodded affirmatively. "Yeah. I want you to rally 10,000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen into formation and wait for my signal. When the time is right, we’ll destroy Era of Strife’s Holy Mage party in one go!"

"Okay!"

……

Beside me, Li Chengfeng asked, "What is your plan exactly?"

I shot him a meaningful smile and answered, "We’re going to give Era of Strife the taste of a new tactic; a tactic that only divine players can execute!”

1. E/N: Oh, let me guess, you will use Death of Xuanyuan Art immediately after, right? -50% from Well of the Abyss, -70% from Xuanyuan Art, he’s 120% dead! :) ☜
