Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 844
Chapter 844: Double Points
The elites from the four sects practically crashed into the Mongolian cavaliers with the force of a bulldozer.
It was the most brutal form of slaughter!
And the fiercest form of close-quarters combat was demonstrated at that moment.
Without NPCs serving as a buffer, this became the first time the players clashed head on against the Mongolian cavaliers, and the most intense sparks came out of the clash, along with blood.
In the blink of an eye, the vanguards of the Mongolian cavaliers were struck dumb by the hundred or so aces from the four sects right at the first exchange itself.
For the first time since the war began, the hundreds of brave armored cavaliers who were invincible on the battlefield were completely defeated right when they fought against the enemy, and in an instant, they lost two hundred Mongolian cavaliers.
The warhorses neighed in pain. The Mongolian cavaliers screamed in agony when they rolled off their horses. The sounds of weapons clashing can be heard, and the battle advanced in a one sided manner, with the Chinese players continuously pushing forward in the Mongolian cavaliers’ direction.
“Kill them!”
“Haha! A normal Mongolian cavalier is now worth twenty points! Awesome!”
“There’re at least eleven thousand of these Mongolian cavaliers, and that means a total of at least two hundred thousand points! Haha! My friends, let’s see who gets the most out of this!”
“You silly child, don’t rush to the front! You’ll have nothing if you die!”
“Darn it! How dare you look down on me?!”
When the twenty thousand or so players landed on the ground, their speed was much faster than the Mongolian cavaliers. They spread out on the entire battle line and quickly created a huge pocket.
Countless people pounced on the area that Happy had cleared to the point that the soldiers were now reduced to chaos. There were more than one thousand injured warhorses there, and the Mongolians who had to fight on the ground were all easy targets.
“What the heck?!”
“Aren’t they a little too fierce?!”
Quite a number of people among the twenty thousand elites were shocked. ‘What in the world…? What do those people at the front do to get to this point, really?’
In truth, even though the people sent by the four sects were all elites, not all of them were brave and had no fear of death. This was especially so for the people who knew about the power in the Mongolian cavaliers’ charge. Quite a number of people in this battalion were already traumatized by this cavalier battalion to the point that they had nothing to say about it.
This was especially so now that there were no Chinese NPC soldiers serving as buffers between the two armies. These players were even prepared for the worst, and if the first charge had their formation scattered by the Mongolian cavaliers…
But what they did not expect was that the ones who had their formation scattered were the Mongolian cavaliers!
The ten-thousand man Mongolian cavalier unit had not even managed to spread out over the battle line completely before they had their aggressive charge destroyed by the elites of the four sects, and the players even launched a counterattack.
In the blink of an eye, a large group of the ten-thousand man Mongolian cavalier unit were reduced to completely useless people once they were thrown off their horses. They could not fight against the player-made army of the same number. Under the dense wave of light from the weapons, they were all cut down while injured. Blood flowed on the ground, and when they connected together, they formed a river of blood that flowed for more than 328 feet.
As the middle section of the Mongolian cavaliers crumbled, and players were like a sharp sword that violently divided the large Mongolian cavalier battalion into three different battlefields.
There were more than one thousand Mongolian cavaliers to the left, and Silver Wolf held them back with the one thousand and two hundred Chinese cavaliers. They were caught in a difficult battle.
Due to Happy’s interference at the center, this place became the region where the players can benefit the most. The players advanced with the force of a cannon, and they moved even faster than Thunderous Battle’s side.
As for Thunderous Battle, he had more than one hundred aces with him. Regardless of their battle experience or their survivability, all these were not something a normal player can hope to compare to.
Besides, players at the level of Thunderous Battle, Little North, Red Dust, Phantasmal Shadow, and Night Rain Follows Wind had the experience of facing multiple Mongolian cavaliers at the same time. They withstood the greatest risk, but they faced no threat to their own safety. While they covered each other’s backs, even when they faced the greatest amount of pressure, they did not back down even an inch. In fact, they had absolute advantage on their side.
Of course, everyone knew that Happy, the person who created this situation, was the greatest benefactor to this fight.
If Happy had not charged into the battlefield earlier on, causing the enemy forces’ charge to weaken prominently and their combat prowess to be drastically reduced, the Chinese forces will still suffer quite a lot of losses when they faced a charge by a battalion of more than ten thousand armored cavaliers on flat ground.
But now, in the blink of an eye, they managed to kill at least two thousand cavaliers.
If they continued pushing forward, they will have absolutely no problem in devouring these cavaliers.
Some of the people who were originally wary and uneasy noticed the situation at hand, and all the fear they had in their hearts vanished. They rushed to the fore and joined the fray.
*****
Thud! Thud!
The warhorses’ legs were continuously cut down.
Happy was still contributing to the war effort tirelessly. While he landed on the ground and charged forward, he will brandish his Noble Sword and slide under the warhorses’ bellies as fast as a bird flying in the sky. The dozens of Mongolian cavaliers around him fell off their horses while they shouted in surprise. When they flung their weapons on him, Happy will resolutely turn around and avoid them.
It was more than enough for him to use only Petite Dragon to handle these people.
At the moment he shot out from under the warhorses’ bellies, Happy quickly surveyed the situation within a circular area of 328 feet around him.
During his charge, at least two thousand Mongolian cavaliers fell off their horses because of him, and without the help of their warhorses, their combat prowess was greatly reduced.
Right now, a commotion broke out.
The momentum of the Mongolian cavaliers’ charge was completely halted.
Tens of thousands of people crashed into each other.
The Mongolian cavaliers descended into a hard fight.
When he saw this, Happy instantly released a breath of relief. He noticed that they had completely controlled the situation, and the Chinese side gained a great advantage. Happy, who was deep among the enemy forces, knew that his quest was already considered complete. Right now, since they had already controlled the situation, even if some unavoidable casualties happen, the four sects can withstand that loss! Their greatest problem had already been solved.
‘Alright, since we’re already in control, before the Mongolian cavaliers react to this and retreat, I’ll get my points!’
Happy switched the momentum of his momentum while he was airborne.
He also moved from using Flying Dragon Sword Technique to Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style.
His sword glares were as fast as lightning!
Sparks quickly seeped into the foreheads of the dozens Mongolian cavaliers around him. Blood gushed into the air, and it was only then that thunderous booms rose in the ears of the Mongolian cavaliers around Happy.
“How dare you?!”
A fierce roar came charging at him.
Happy’s heart tensed up. He did not turn around but twisted his body irregularly in the air. A sharp axe practically grazed past Happy before it fell to an empty spot.
The 1,000-man commander who ambushed Happy was instantly enraged when he saw that he did not manage to hit Happy with one strike!
But before he could change his attack, a sharp lightning bolt instantly seeped to the area between his eyes. At that moment, he had already swung his axe halfway, and right then, he lost control over his axe. It crashed to the ground, and half a feet of the blade was embedded in earth.
Thud!
His corpse crashed against the ground.
A system notification arrived.
“Ding!
“Successfully killed a 1,000-man commander and obtained extra points.
“Obtained 1,000 points! Current points: 9,320!”
Happy was already used to the notifications telling him that he gained double points. Unperturbed, he grabbed the third-echelon grade one masterpiece the 1,000-man commander dropped on the ground and stuffed it in his Universe Bag.
Since the beginning of the battle, he had been racking up points very quickly, but there was something that Happy was displeased with.
“One cavalier under your command died!
“One cavalier under your command died!”
Notifications of his cavaliers dying came nonstop. In the blink of an eye, he lost one-third out of six hundred and twenty-five cavaliers, and the speed in which these notifications came up was almost as fast as the speed in which he gained his points. There was no way he could relax when this happened?
