Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 206
Chapter 206: Slaughter
Thousand Year Corpse King’s Right Arm had a chance to have the ripping effect and inflict the target with deadly poison.
With the support from Wind Spirit Spin, its single-target damage turned into group damage. The great fighters from Perpetual Joy Sect and Fallen Feathers Sect were caught off guard and instantly faced a disaster.
Thud, thud, thud!
In the blink of an eye, they were met with several of Happy’s punches.
The expression of the man in the lead changed drastically.
Each of Happy’s attacks were real. There were no feints, and all of them were extremely quick! His first attack broke down most of his own momentum, and every single time he attacked after, his blows were each heavier than the last. His offense was also so fast that the man simply could not fight back. He could only descend into the awkward situation of being brutally beaten down.
His high-tier body fortification technique did not manage to protect him for too long either. When Happy delivered his fourth punch, it was destroyed, which meant that it had happened in an instant based on how fast Stormy Shadowless Kick’s attack speed was.
However, the man had good mental fortitude and did not panic.
Happy’s strength was obvious to all. If even the two leaders of the sects could not fight against him, how could they hope to stand a chance?
“Don’t bother about me! Kill him!”
Once he lost the protection from his body fortification technique, the man suffered great pain when Happy punched him. His consciousness became blurry, but still, he did not forget to shout and remind his brothers to surround Happy.
However, the scattered screams of pain around him made him apprehensive.
With considerable effort, he managed to look around him. The elites were about his equal in strength, but they had all been sent sprawling on the ground or staggering backwards. It looked as if they could not control their balance and center of gravity. They were in the same situation as him!
The man in the lead was shocked, but he soon remembered the name of a high-tier support skill.
‘Wind Spirit Spin!’
Before he could open his mouth to remind everyone, a powerful suction force suddenly made him lose his momentum when he was about to be sent flying away. Then, an intense pain shot from his throat straight to his brain.
‘What’s going on?’
His vision darkened, and his consciousness went away.
Happy did not show any hint of excitement once he killed the man in the lead with Dragon Capture after he lost his body fortification technique. He had used a lot of qi to kill one person, and he had even been forced to bring out Dragon Capture. The elites did indeed have extraordinary abilities, or at the very least, they were very sturdy! With that thought in mind, Happy shifted into the depths of the crowd without stopping and chased after the people who had been sent staggering backwards.
When he killed the first person, the other great fighters from Perpetual Joy Sect and Fallen Feathers Sect finally came to provide reinforcements. All sorts of surging aura came to surround him from all sides. It was obvious that they wanted to kill him without giving him a chance to escape.
Ji Feng, the middle-aged man in the woolen robe, watched Happy’s actions attentively.
He could be considered lucky, since he could not be considered to be strong in the group, even if he was not that weak.
However, the moment Happy appeared, Ji Feng seemed to have known who his target would be. He did not care about the scornful and contemptuous gazes fixed on him from behind and moved back decisively, which was why he had not been part of the first group of people to be attacked.
He drew his bamboo ruler quietly and looked over with a cold face. “Since you’re here, then die,” he mumbled to himself in the crowd.
Ji Feng always had a pretty good grasp of the overall situation. When the hall chiefs and leaders who were supposed to act as their leaders did not have time to take care of everyone, he had taken up the duty of leading the group resolutely.
He swept his gaze over the area.
He noticed that Happy’s punches tormented the people around him, moving like fish in the water. They were violent and could not be blocked. The people in front of him did not have any room to counterattack, and once they were struck by the black mist particles, faint black aura would envelope their faces. The aura around their bodies would also swiftly become weaker, which was very strange.
There might have been a lot of people behind Happy, but there were only a few who could attack him.
However, Happy’s equipment and body fortification technique were just too powerful.
All sorts of attacks landed on the golden light, but it was difficult for them to affect it. Even after a full round of attacks, they only managed to make it slightly dimmer, and Happy was completely unaffected by their efforts. He continued to give chase without paying attention to anything else around him. By the looks of it, he seemed to be able to keep this up for a while longer.
When Ji Feng saw that, he scowled. He quickly called a few people from Perpetual Joy Sect who could not find an opening to join the battle. He then pointed at the entrance to the chamber.
The people called over were originally a little displeased, but once understood his plan, their gazes immediately lit up.
A few of them calmly left the edge of the battlefield. Then, they dashed to Dead She-wolf’s chamber like arrows let loose from a bow.
Happy naturally did not miss that.
However, it was very difficult for him to turn around once he entered the center of the group. Besides, if he did that, not only would he lose his advantage in suppressing his enemies, there was even a possibility that he would be surrounded by the elites of the two sects.
“Medicinal Stone, last for a while!”
Happy gritted his teeth and quickly ate a Dew Pill to replenish his qi. The next moment, his slightly dim Golden Bell Cocoon shone with a shocking and dazzling golden light once more.
Clang!
He charged forward and swung his Thousand Year Corpse King’s Right Arm like a scythe at his enemies who had already been poisoned and whose abilities had been greatly reduced.
“Urk!”
The people hit coughed up blood and flew out of the crowd. Muffled groans rose one after another, and judging by the sounds of it, those players would not be able to live for much longer.
While the area ahead of him was in chaos, Happy used Dragon Capture once again.
A person to his left had just arrived next to him when Happy’s normal-looking left hand appeared in front of him like a ghost. A wild and monstrous suction force came from his palm, shocking the player. He lost control over his body and slid two feet from his original spot, delivering himself straight into Happy’s hand.
“AH!”
When he yelped in surprise, a huge force turned him, and his vision shifted 180 degrees. The unlucky guy was pushed behind Happy to face the enemies behind him who had been violently and ruthlessly attacking his Golden Bell Cocoon.
Due to inertia, the people behind Happy simply could not stop their attacks.
Thud! Thud!
Blood gushed out. One of the sects’ own died under their weapons.
Everyone as dazed, and the attackers behind Happy froze for a moment.
Happy’s eyes lit up, and he seized the chance to send the corpse in his hand flying. He did so with decisiveness.
When the attackers saw that the comrade they had killed was sent flying their way, they instinctively stepped aside to avoid him with anger and regret on their faces.
“Careful!”
“He’s behind us!”
Their attention had been diverted by the corpse. When they heard the warnings from their companions, a yellow figure had already moved from behind the corpse like a phantom.
Whoosh!
Against the trio’s expectations, what appeared before their eyes was not the shadow of a fist, but a dazzling dark blue that covered a large area! It looked like the galaxy of the nine heavens had poured down on them. It instantly took their whole field of vision; it was dazzling as well as woefully beautiful.
Flowering Knights’ Song!
The damage of Stormy Shadowless Kick was not high, and it was difficult for Happy to kill players who were at the same qi realm as him. However, if he used Hundred-battle Saber and Flowering Knights’ Song, which had reached Grandmaster Realm, his attacks would not be something the elites could easily receive.
The trio was caught off guard. They were not able to avoid the dark blue saber glare that came sweeping at them as it spread out exponentially!
Under the trio’s shocked and distressed gazes, the dark blue saber glare moved past their faces at the speed of lightning. Then, they saw blood-red, and their consciousness was instantly destroyed.
Thud, thud, thud!
Their bodies fell to the ground.
When the trio fell, even more people flew into a rage! They roared and came charging forth to attack from all directions! They seemed to want to tire Happy out and kill him with the continuous fighting!
“Flowering Knights Slash!”
With a roar and a spin, Happy rose into the air!
Shick! Shick!
The people who came to surround Happy had not even been able to get close to attack Golden Bell Cocoon when Happy’s sharp, dark blue saber glare grew brighter and wider to reach right in front of their faces! It was as if a pair of blue Wind and Fire Wheels had risen into the air. With a force that tore through wind and crushed the earth, it swiftly crashed into the crowd!
They were all in a tiny space where the players pushed and shoved against each other. The people from the two sects simply did not have time to retreat and avoid the attack. While screams of surprise rose and fell one after another, the Wind and Fire Wheels looked as if they had entered a deserted wasteland!
Wherever they went, blood poured out!
