Chapter 814: Shifting Stars
“Successfully killed one Mongolian cavalier. Obtained 10 points. Current points: 765!”
“Successfully killed one Mongolian cavalier. Obtained 10 points. Current points: 775!”
“Successfully killed one Mongolian cavalier. Obtained 10 points. Current points: 785!”
“Successfully killed one 10-man cavalier commander. Obtained 50 points. Current points: 835!”
“Successfully killed one Mongolian cavalier. Obtained 10 points. Current points: 845!”
This continued on.
“Successfully killed one 10-man cavalier commander. Obtained 50 points. Current points: 1,155!”
Happy heard the system tell him that he had at least four 10-man cavalier commander confirmed kills from the group of patrols in front of him, and that was a total of two hundred points.
He managed to gain more than one thousand points in one go, and while Happy felt excited, he stared at the Mongolian cavaliers who were rushing to him from the distance, and his gaze became much more fervent.
There were more than four hundred Mongolian cavaliers who came from three different directions. If he could kill all of them in one go, he should be able to get more than five thousand points.
Even though it was not enough for him to get the title of a middle-rank captain just yet, one day in the game was the same as half a day in the real world. It was already very impressive that he obtained so many points in half a day.
But sitting around waiting while twiddling his thumbs was clearly not Happy’s style. His current condition also did not support him in staying around the area.
The qi requirements for Ten Thousand Swords was incredibly astonishing. In one breath, his qi dropped to Blessed Realm. If Happy did not have Small Reversion Pills with him, which had astonishing recovery abilities, it will clearly be very difficult for him to recover five hundred qi points with Dew Pills within a short period of time, since it was just a low-class recovery medicinal pill. However, there were only a few people in the game who could use the extremely valuable Small Reversion Pills like normal Dew Pills on the battlefield.
“Let’s go!” Happy growled, and Happy fled with Yu Yan in tow. He never stopped moving.
The thundering horse hooves behind them gradually became louder and clearer.
A sense of danger quickly closed in on him.
There was no need for them to turn around and look. They knew that the cavaliers who were chasing after him from three directions were slowly gathering together behind them, and they will soon form a sizeable cavalier unit!
However, not a hint of anxiety could be detected on their faces.
Under the not very bright starlight, Yu Yan’s pretty face could be seen to be filled with an excited, red flush.
Their average speed was astonishing. They soon traveled for nearly one-third of a mile, but they still did not manage to surpass the speed of the horses.
Happy turned his head around to look. The Noble Sword in his hands was unsheathed with a clang, and a chilling glare shone on the dark plains.
“Your qi recovered?”
Yu Yan was eager to fight as wind roared violently around her.
Happy smiled faintly and nodded. “Same rules. I’ll break through. You follow behind me and get points. Activate your body fortification. Remember not to jump into the air. As long as there are not many people attacking you, with the equipment you prepared for yourself, you should be able to last for some time.”
“Okay!” Yu Yan nodded.
Right after he finished speaking, Happy turned around without hesitation and charged back from where he came.
Boom!
Since he no longer needed to put on a disguise and exercise restraint, he activated the qi for Moksha Realm straightaway and tapped against the ground. Then, like an arrow fired from a bow, he shot toward the large cavalier unit 492 feet away at an even faster speed.
Rumble! Rumble!
At that moment, the large number of patrolling cavaliers had already gathered together to form a large cavalier unit that comprised of hundreds of people. Nearly one hundred torches illuminated the rear brightly. If anyone was fleeing from them and turned around to look right then, they will feel a suffocating pressure.
Boom!
The ground trembled!
The horse hooves sounded like thunder when they rushed into Happy’s ears.
The pressure increased by leaps and bounds.
Under the firelight, he saw hundreds of cavaliers charge aggressively at him like a swarm of wild beasts. Even Happy was nearly shaken by it.
But he knew that this was not the time for him to be distracted or hesitant.
“Hah!” he growled, and Happy activated Nine Yang Divine Skill and Phantasmal Body Movement Skill to the max. The explosive strength within him increased once more.
Whoosh! WHOOSH!
Practically all of the Mongolian cavaliers had extraordinary archery skills while they were riding. Right when Happy entered their shooting range, the people at the front row grasped the strings of their bows, nocked the arrows, and fired.
The arrows were like black dots under the light from the torches. With sharp sounds of air being pierced through, the black dots quickly became larger in front of Happy’s eyes.
Happy was not terrified, but was delighted.
He had already obtained Shifting Stars for nearly one month. He already had some experience with Murong Clan’s ultimate technique, and he had also used it a few times during real combat.
He practically activated this skill instinctively, and the dense wave of arrows coming at him surrounded him before they flew back to the cavalier unit.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The Mongolian cavaliers right in front were caught off guard, and they cried out in surprise before they fell off their horses.
“AAAHHHH!!”
“Hiss…”
Many horses had their horse hooves shot through.
Bang!
Thud!
Dozens of Mongolian cavaliers fell off their horses, and they crashed against the ground along their horses.
The force of impact when multiple cavaliers gathered together might be terrifying, but the people who were shot and fell down were very unlucky. Since it happened so suddenly, they were immediately squashed by their companions, who came charging forward from behind.
Happy seized the chance to charge into the now chaotic cavalier unit!
He activated Arhat Body!
Even though he only wore a normal grade one masterpiece at the third echelon, normal Mongolian cavaliers already had a hard time to cause harm to him.
The power in each sword slash in Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style surpassed twenty thousand.
The Mongolian armored cavaliers had their steeds equipped with light armor, and it provided them with a certain degree of protection, but when Happy attacked at full force, that armor still found it hard to withstand Happy’s attacks.
If they only suffered light injuries, they will be crippled, but if they suffered heavy injuries, they died right on the spot!
The Mongolian cavaliers who rushed near Happy all fell off their horses, and in incredibly pathetic fashions, when they landed on the ground, they pounced on him.
One group!
Two groups!
Happy did not retreat, but continued advancing forward. He spread his spiritual senses, and he had a firm grasp of everything that happened around him.
Thud thud!
Dozens of arrows shot through Happy’s afterimage.
“Darn it!”
At that moment, Happy finally found the situation a little challenging.
Even though his counterattack for the arrows and his charge had sent no fewer than two hundred cavaliers off their horses, the cavaliers behind them still continued to nock their arrows and fire at them. They were very difficult to deal with. While he might not have a hard time even if he did not send all these people off their horses, he was worried that Yu Yan will have a hard time.
While he thought things through, the large group of Mongolian cavaliers had already surrounded him with an aggressive presence!
When he saw this, Happy’s expression turned cold.
“Get lost!”
He swung the longsword in his hands in one swift circle, and it was like a silver full moon.
Before the enemies around him could see what had happened clearly, the sharp sword glare instantly cut through at least eight Mongolian cavaliers’ throats. Their bodies froze, and they fell at the same time around Happy.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The arrow shower arrived at him.
This time, even Happy was accidentally shot by one arrow. The force in the arrow crashed violently against his shoulder, and half of his shoulder nearly became numb.
Fortunately, the defense in Arhat Body had already increased to a little over five thousand, and it could negate a certain percentage of damage, otherwise, when he revealed the slightest bit of weakness, the Mongolian cavaliers around him will seize the chance to attack him, and the results will be catastrophic!
He was annoyed, and Happy was forced to activate Shifting Stars once more.
This time, since he faced the damage from the arrows and the threat from the cavaliers who came at him from everywhere, he became much more focused than before. He also instinctively turned the trajectory of his counterattack at the cavaliers around him.
Then, something unbelievable happened!
The strange power of the seven stars overturned the universe, causing the arrows that arrived next to him turn a small semi-circle around him. They went off course slightly before they stabbed viciously into the Mongolian cavaliers who approached them.
When the arrows pierced into them, the sounds of their bodies being shot through rose very close in his ears.
The Mongolian men who drew close to Happy were thrown off their feet by a great force. They were sent flying away. The people at the periphery were caught off guard, and they were knocked back as well.
There was a strange hint of shock remaining on Happy’s face while he stood safe within the encirclement. A great urge to seize that thought he just had rose in his heart.
At that moment, the Mongolian cavaliers’ attacks and arrows drew close to him once more.
