Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 745
Chapter 745: The Coastal Area at the South
“They’re prepared to attack our elites one by one! All Dragon Sect elites, return and defend yourself! Towering Palace members, protect them!”
When they saw that the advantage they built had come to a screeching halt and that the forces Mu Clan reorganized had started showing signs that they will seize control over the backyard once more, Vast Heaven continuously fired Six Pulses Divine Sword and disrupted the battle situation while he shouted orders to retreat.
At the same time, Mu Clan had already regrouped for battle and launched their second wave of offense!
With whistles that could topple mountains, all of Yangzhou City descended into a loud sea of sound formed by the cries of murder. Firelight surged into the sky, and the clashing of weapons could be heard. Arrow showers sliced through the sky, and the frequency in which it happened caused countless people’s souls to shudder.
Silver Wolf stood on the rood and continued to have his brothers from all around him fight against Towering Palace and Class One Hall’s charges in an orderly fashion. He was not at all affected by the gradually increasing number of deaths and wounded.
Right from the start, he knew that this night will be very difficult!
Deaths and casualties cannot be avoided.
But since the moment they started fighting, the frequency in which Mu Clan’s members were injured or died was not high, and it was still acceptable.
Mu Clan’s casualties might have already reached more than one hundred, but they had caused nearly two thousand deaths to Towering Palace and Class One Hall.
This was a one to twenty ratio, and it was very impressive!
Besides, there was always scale weighing the losses in Silver Wolf’s heart!
He knew clearly that there were only about ten people who could truly threaten Mu Clan.
As long as they could kill these people, the others were not a problem. Even if they had to fight against swarms of enemies, as long as they continued taking in medicinal pills, the thousands of great fighters in Mu Clan might not be at a disadvantage.
Hence, even though Towering Palace and Class One Hall tried to increase the pressure on the branch and launched the second wave of offense, Silver Wolf remained unperturbed. He gave calm orders in a composed manner.
Even with Vast Heaven’s commands, the Dragon Sect elites and Towering Palace elites at the backyard had drawn back a little, and they were all blocked by Little North’s swift kills.
But their actions led to a chance for Wind Chimes to launch AOE attacks!
The elites from Mu Clan were gathered together in comparison. They fought against Vast Heaven and the others as they pushed forward, and they blocked them outside their defense line firmly!
Waves of powerful sound blades shot forward from the zither strings, and the sword qis from Six Pulses Divine Sword were destroyed in the air. The remaining force continuously crashed against the Dragon Sect elites in the area.
Arrow showers moved like locusts, and most of them killed the Towering Palace elites who shot forward from behind the enemy lines.
Vast Heaven and his group might have occupied half of the area in the backyard, but when they had to face Mu Clan’s tenacious resistance and the demonic sounds that traveled everywhere, they still felt endless pressure.
“AH!”
A scream of pain rose. A blood red lightning bolt quickly returned gold in the crowd before it returned to Little North’s bamboo tube in a flash.
Little North smiled smugly. “Seventh!”
He put away the bamboo tube, and Little North hid himself in the crowd once more.
He had managed to kill at least seven elites with unknown identities in this assasination, along with a similar number of Towering Palace elites.
But there were still a lot of Dragon Sect elites remaining, and he could not approach Vast Heaven and the others as well.
The Mu Clan members who had to fight against Vast Heaven and the others faced the greatest pressure! Sword qi flew everywhere, and the weapon shadows and lights had practically gathered together to turn into a meat grinder.
Most of the Mu Clan elites who died died in their hands.
If it were not because of how good their equipment were and how they took turns to take up the task of defending the branch, perhaps there will be even more deaths!
“Use Origin Leopard Pills!”
Silver Wolf saw how urgent the situation was from the roof. Wind Chimes’ demonic sounds gradually
屋顶上的银狐看出情况紧急,风铃的魔音渐渐失去突然的效果后,凌霄宫的阵线又开始缓慢推进,迅速扭头下令:
“弓箭手准备!”
一直保护在分坛厅堂廊道和屋顶四周的弓箭手纷纷擎出强弓,引箭入弦.
唰唰!
箭矢从高处暴雨般扎入人群!
…
空旷的官道,从晚上到白天,开心的身边已经是多出了一百多人,快马风驰电掣的飞驰,轰隆隆地发往东方.
一路,不断有来自南方内地各大分坛的高手跟随而来.
尽管没有得到慕府的内部通知,但还是主动的加入到了开心的队伍——这些来自南方内腹城市的高手,都有朋友或兄弟被调往扬州的慕府分坛,也是得知了扬州的情况紧急.
对于这些人的请求,开心也没有办法拒绝!
特别是在收到飞鸽传书,一品堂的人马在血衣的带领下公然联手进攻慕府分坛,一路上,开心的脸色越来越沉重.
不断的在马背上发出一封封指令!
远在千里之外的保康城的总坛,雷战也是马不停蹄地转动起来.
在开心的提醒下,频频调动人马和友好的联盟帮派,往慕府地盘的边境城市下发了战备的警告.
数十个挨近北方一品堂和东方凌霄宫的分坛的高手全员出动,在提高境界,进入战备状态的同时,也是在许多帮派的帮助下,严密监视一品堂,凌霄宫分坛的兵马调动情况.
此外!
开心的指令也是延展到了南方!
…
镇江城
是广东的一个沿海城市.
自从三龙会的事件以后,凌霄宫在这里的威望一度从土皇帝下降到与普通大帮派平起平坐的程度,直到慕府与凌霄宫的关系回暖,才渐渐的恢复过来.
然而…
好景不长.
慕府在扬州建立分坛的消息一经传出,整个分坛的凌霄宫弟子都是变得小心谨慎许多,外出弟子多以执行任务为主,在外界活动的人十分稀少.
因为他们知道.
随着扬州城战事的爆发,凌霄宫与慕府的关系肯定要降到有史以来的冰点!
如今.
整个南方的沿海城市虽然大部分还控制在凌霄宫的手里,但是中间的一截城市恰巧被慕府夺了去,至今没有收回来;
这还不算,整个南方都是慕府和侠义门的天下…
就算凌霄宫,一品堂真正地联合起来,讲慕府从中原第一帮派的宝座上拉下来,对于南方的这些城市来说,他们的日子不会好过.
自从三龙会事件以后,凌霄宫沿海老大的位置已经被人质疑,出现动摇.
包括凌霄宫自己,也是察觉到了凌霄宫底蕴的不足!
所以,在依稀得知扬州城的事件以后,大部分都选择了观望和保守的态度,一有不对劲,马上下线,或者躲入酒楼.
不过镇江比较偏远,这里的物资比较富饶,凌霄宫也曾强力的出手收回两个落入别的帮派的资源点,活动得比较频繁.
然而…
这天天蒙蒙亮的时候,突然设立在镇江的凌霄宫分坛出现了被袭击的警报!
无数凌霄宫弟子接到黑鸽示警的时候,分坛里的弟子心惊胆颤地朝外面望了一眼…
外面黑压压的全是人!
但…
不是慕府的人,而是在前不久才失去了资源的两个本土帮派的人马,刀光剑影,虎视眈眈地包围了整座分坛.(未完待续.如果您喜欢这部作品,欢迎您来起点(qidian.com)投推荐票,月票,您的支持,就是我最大的动力.)
