Chapter 1543: Stranger of Three Lifetimes Battles The Heroes

Everyone on the frontline was holding their breaths. It felt like the enemy hooves were thundering against their hearts and not the ground. However, practically every Blood Soul player who broke through the line of literal fire was instantly turned into a porcupine and felled from their mounts. The ground was littered with bodies almost all too quickly.

Even Stranger of Three Lifetimes couldn’t help herself but say, "Ancient Sword’s Holy Mages had to be some of the best mage groups in all the servers, if not the best. If even the first and second best guilds of the Northern Alliance could barely break through the line of fire, it’s no wonder they annihilated Warsky Alliance’s Gold Cavalry so easily during the previous battles…"

……

"Here they come!"

Gui Guzi yelled in warning as a couple of gigantic figures emerged from dust and smoke. They were none other than the Ancient Immortal Rank bosses, the Mountain Giants. Their footsteps were slow and lumbering, but what they lacked in speed they made up in size and tankiness. A full volley from our archers didn’t even delete 1% of their HP, and the Mountain Giants could cross ten meters in a single step. As a result, they were able to break past our line of fire all too quickly!

"Watch out!"

I hurriedly flew dozens of meters forward before firing a Dragon Slaying Slash at a Mountain Giant’s head to aggro it. At the same time, I shouted, "Archers, stun these Mountain Giants with Shock Arrows! Our battle line will be fucked if they are allowed to attack as they pleased!"

Beiming Xue, Hymn of the Apocalypse and more nodded and did as I ordered, but most of their Shock Arrows failed to take effect. In fact, Beiming Xue was the only one who managed to stun one Mountain Giant while the other nine reached us all too quickly!

Buzz!

Less than three meters away from me, a Mountain Giant swung its stone club and sent a dozen or so Profound Wolf Cavalrymen flying into the distance. Not only did they lose 3 million HP at least, some lost their mounts and rolled unceremoniously across the ground.

The Mountain Giants roared and stomped the players ruthlessly with its gigantic feet. Then, they grabbed their clubs with both hands and started spinning on the spot. Whirlwind Slash??

Boom boom boom!

Players and mounts flew to the sky. Seven or eight holes appeared in our defense line in just the blink of an eye. Every leader was panicking because Blood Soul’s cavalrymen were right behind the bosses. Their equipment was elite, and their mounts were elite warhorses with a fiery blade growing out of their forehead. The mount was the Level 180 Scarlet Blade Warhorse!

"Keep the bosses under control and prepare to receive the enemy’s charge!"

I fired another Burning Blade Slash at a Mountain Giant. In just the blink of an eye, more than half of the Scarlet Blade Cavalrymen managed to break through our line of fire and stabbed our Profound Wolf Cavalrymen with their Barrier Breaks. However, our players were no slouches themselves, especially since they had been buffed by powerful stratagems such as Purple Dragon, Royal Road, Knight God and more. Thye tanked the Scarlet Blade Cavalrymen’s charge head-on and retaliated with their own combos. Chaos reigned over the battle line in just the blink of an eye!

He Yi flew up to a Mountain Giant and caught its attention before yelling, "All first-rate players, aggro the Mountain Giants and keep them in one place as much as you can! The rest of you, focus on holding back the Scarlet Blade Cavalry!"

Very soon, Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng, Heaven’s Rain, Diamond Dust, High Fighting Spirits, Eyes Like Water and more aggroed a Mountain Giant each and kept them busy. Everyone else pushed the battle line forward and defended against the Scarlet Blade Cavalry there. However, Blood Soul’s assault was brutal and relentless, and our 100k Profound Wolf Cavalrymen gradually faltered despite their best efforts!

Less than ten minutes later, a giant, bloody sword cut across the air and killed hundreds of Profound Wolf Cavalrymen in one go. It was none other than Soul Slayer’s Odin Slash. He pointed with his heavy sword and said, "Punch through the enemy line from here. Fire Catapults, keep advancing and take down the walls as quickly as you can. The Chinese won’t be able to hold the fortress once their walls are down!"

Stranger of Three Lifetimes finally couldn’t hold still any longer. She leaped down the walls while ordering, "Blazing Hot Lips cavalrymen, plug the hole! Don’t allow the enemy to do as they pleased!"

She waved her scepter and froze dozens of Scarlet Blade Cavalrymen with an Ice Blast. However, the enemies were so numerous that at least a dozen or so cavalrymen were able to reach her unimpeded. They swung their blades at her ruthlessly!

Stranger of Three Lifetimes parried two blows in succession before planting her scepter on the ground. A gush of flames instantly engulfed the magic knights before her and dealt around 2 million fire damage to her. Not done yet, she turned toward another group of enemies and stretched her palm wide, chanting, "Dark Flame Hurricane!"

Dark Flame Hurricane was a skill that dealt continuous fire damage to a 100-yard radius area. Nearly every Scarlet Blade Cavalryman who were caught in the skill received over 5 million damage and were left dead or heavily injured. For a while, the Blood Soul players could only stare at her stupidly. Had a single mage really just interrupted their charge?

"I’ll kill her!"

A harsh yell cut through the air. It was Soul Slayer descending on top of Stranger of Three Lifetimes on his green dragon!

Quadruple Slash!

Scepter clashed against heavy sword again and again, but Stranger of Three Lifetimes only managed to parry the first hit. As a result, she had lost her Magic Shield and even suffered some damage!

MISS!

MISS!

MISS!

1,172,736!

Seeing that her HP had dropped by almost 30%, Stranger of Three Lifetimes withdrew to the back while channeling something that looked like an ice spell with her scepter. Then, she fired an ice crystal into the green dragon’s eyes—Lie of Ice!

The green dragon howled in pain and became uncontrollable. Lie of Ice was a skill that made a target’s mount temporarily uncontrollable[1]!

However, a grim-eyed Soul Slayer let out a dark chuckle. He might be out of balance, but that didn’t stop him from firing a sword aura straight at the mage!

Stranger of Three Lifetimes withdrew as quickly as she could, but not fast enough that she could dodge the sword aura. At a critical moment, a shadow knocked Stranger of Three Lifetimes to the side and tanked the attack with his broad chest. Her rescuer was none other than Xu Yang[2]!

"Ouch!"

The attack had deleted over 2 million HP, so he had to pull back temporarily and heal himself to full. He said, "Take care, Stranger!"

After firing Touch of the Dragonkiss and Storm Spell at Soul Slayer, Stranger of Three Lifetimes jumped into the air and was taken away by a Blazing Hot Lips knightress riding what seemed like a white bird. If I remembered correctly, the mount had been purchased from the Russia server.

……

Arrows and magic spells splashed against our armor. The Profound Wolf Cavalry was losing HP and lives at an astonishing rate, forcing Gui Guzi to heal everyone with his Shennong Tastes Grass. At the same time, he looked at me and urged, "Boss Broken Halberd, we can’t keep staying on the defensive like this. Otherwise, we may lose everyone without achieving much!"

I nodded. "You’re right. Let’s counter charge and kill their archers and mages with Ultimate Strength Break then. Blood Soul may annihilate our Profound Wolf Cavalry, but they will pay the blood price!"

"Yeah. Kill!"

Our remaining 50k Profound Wolf Cavalrymen launched a countercharge as soon as Gui Guzi gave the order. Their Ultimate Strength Breaks exploded among the enemy ranged players and killed countless. Of course, Blood Soul’s players were pissed off and fought violence with even greater violence.

It was as if the entire battlefield had been set on fire. The dominant force on the battlefield was still Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls’ Holy Mages. Their Galaxy Storms and especially their God Devil Breaks and more were able to kill all the enemies beneath the walls sooner or later. Over 300k Scarlet Blade Cavalrymen had Charged through the line of fire, but less than 40% of them were able to make it to the walls. In fact, the 10 Mountain Giants were falling one after another because our ranged firepower was just too great. The Mountain Giants helped to delay the inevitable, but they weren’t a great enough factor to turn the tables against us.

Still, the last Mountain Giant was able to swing its club against the wall and smash a huge hole in it before dying to Beiming Xue. More Crimson Blade Cavalrymen rode up to the walls and provided cover for the approaching Fire Catapults. The situation could still easily spiral out of control if not handled carefully.

……

"Hold! Hold!"

Stranger of Three Lifetimes yelled in a panicked voice while looking upward. "Who will be the temporary commander, Lian Xin, Beiming? Your brother strayed a little too deep into the enemy lines!"

Lian Xin blasted a group of Scarlet Blade Cavalrymen into pieces before declaring, "I will. Big brother Xu Yang, muster 100k Thunder Cavalrymen to protect the walls! We cannot lose the walls so soon into the war!"

Xu Yang leaped down the rampart and gave his Omnislash a swing. "200k Thunder Cavalrymen, follow me! We’re going to attack the enemy and take their contribution points![3]"

The gate opened, and countless cavalrymen flushed out into the open. They engaged Blood Soul’s players under our ranged players’ suppressive fire.

……

Pu!

I skewered three archers through the chest like satay before unleashing Thousand Ice Slash that killed another group of enemies. After I noted that I was still sitting at 179 Divine Energy Points, I cast 9 Ancient Seals in a row and Xuanyuan Art to massively increase my Nation War contribution points. The skill was so OP that, upon noticing that I was using the Xuanyuan Art almost immediately off cooldown, the Northern Alliance guilds behind Blood Soul backed far, far away for fear of being affected by the skill. The coward!

I looked around me and noted that only a handful of my players such as High Fighting Spirits, Chaos Moon, Heaven’s Rain, Gui Guzi and more were still fighting on the frontline. Moreover, most of them were surrounded or close to being surrounded by Blood Soul’s players. Thank goodness Blood Soul were running out of players as well, or this would be quite the precarious situation!

I carved my way to Heaven’s Rain side and said, "We’re fighting our way back to the fortress, Little Rain. Otherwise, we’re all going to die here!"

"Okay!"

Heaven’s Rain stayed close to me as we rounded up High Fighting Spirits, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun, Chaos Moon and more. In total, I was able to gather about a hundred players before we began fighting our way back to the fortress. Our task was made a bit easier thanks to He Yi, Gui Guzi and Li Chengfeng providing some cover from the sky. It had been an entire hour since we engaged Blood Soul, and the ground was completely covered in player corpses. We had lost over 100k Profound Wolf Cavalrymen in this battle, but Blood Soul’s casualties were at least several times greater than ours!

……

We had just returned to the walls when we saw Xu Yang and the Thunder Cavalrymen riding toward us in full gallop. He shouted from a distance, "Should we surround and annihilate the enemies close to the wall, Lu Chen?"

"No need. Just throwing them back is good enough!"

I suddenly caught a glimpse of Soul Slayer some distance away from me and felt a surge of murderous intent. I said in the party channel, "Chengfeng, Little Gui, Eve, let’s work together to surround and take out Soul Slayer. His invincibility skill is still on cooldown, so we should be able to do it. Just watch out for his Odin Slash!"

"Okay!"

1. T/N: sounds like an incredibly niche skill; it’s not like the player’s stats are reduced in anyway. Does it do damage? ☜

2. T/N: Woohoo! Poor guy is kinda a foil in ASDS even though he’s a thoroughly good guy, so it’s great to see him shine once in a blue moon ☜

3. T/N: In the raws, Xu Yang specifically said ‘we’re not going to defend, we’ll attack instead’. I didn’t translate it that way because it reads awkward. What this means is that the dude bent almost all of Lian Xin’s orders and did as he pleased lol ☜
