Sword Among Us
Sword Among Us - Chapter 351: Bloody Battle!

Boom!

Rumble…

Within a forest miles away from the town were a group of players who were level-grinding at full concentration. They suddenly felt powerful tremors under their feet, and the frequency also increased with each passing moment. Soon, the entire forest began to tremble.

“What happened?”

“Let’s go look!”

The powerful tremors attracted countless players. They cast aside whatever they were doing, activated their lightness skills, jumped a few times, and soon exited the forest.

Rumble!

Thousands of horses charged forward like the wind. They stomped on the flat government-made road as if they were about to go to war! Their momentum shook even the heavens, and dust swirled in the air.

Before the group that came out of the forest could get closer, the awe-inspiring presence of the horses that filled the area came charging at them, and their expressions changed while they sucked in a deep breath.

How exactly did the scene of thousands of horses charging forward look like?!

Even though they did not charge forth like a group of neat and orderly cavalry, the presence that thousands of martial artists exuded at the same time was rather terrifying. The army of thousands made it look like they possessed the aggressive might that could allow them to tear through everything.

Countless people watched theblack figures leave into the distance, and they did not manage to react to the situation even after a long time had passed.

Happy rolled up the paper in his hands into a ball while in the crystal mine hundreds of miles away, and his gaze gradually turned cold.

“Good move.”

The moment Beautiful Robes Faction went out of the city, Happy received a piece of information from the Three Lonely Wolves and Chivalry Sect.

Class One Hall’s tactic did not escape their eyes. It was a standard play of baiting them out of town, but Beautiful Robes Faction had no other choice. Someone had already gone up to bully them right at their doorstep, despite them having previously been courteous to them. There would be nothing strange no matter how extreme Beautiful Robes Faction’s reaction was. Even though there was a great danger in them getting out of the city, if they stayed in their headquarters like cowards, they would not necessarily be able to escape from the disaster.

Happy did not send a letter to stop them.

Instead of having someone walk over countless Beautiful Robes Faction members’ corpses and their dignity, it would be better if they fought to their hearts’ content in a life and death struggle until they gained unyielding resolve!

Ever since Beautiful Robes Faction was built, everything had gone smoothly for them. Most of his university mates seldom experienced the brutality of true war. Right then, it was a rare chance for them.

Happy wanted Beautiful Robes Faction experience true war and be baptized through blood. Even though it would serve as a temporary obstacle to their development, it would definitely be a valuable experience for the future of all the people in Beautiful Robes Faction.

They would definitely be injured, but Class One Hall could only dream about gaining any sort of benefits from Beautiful Robes Faction…

Happy closed his eyes slowly.

*****

“Fire!”

An order suddenly rose from the forest on both sides of the government-made road.

It was as if countless traps had been triggered, and a dense wave of twangs from bowstrings being released rose nonstop. A volley of black arrows that were packed closely to each other landed everywhere on the majestic cavalry unit.

They were caught off guard, and quite a number of people were shot.

Blood gushed out!

Some people were thrown off their horses by a huge force.

“Everyone, be careful!”

Someone’s expression changed drastically. They activated their body fortifications and qi realms while they swung their weapons. Clanging sounds rose as they blocked the arrows that shot out from the forest. The situation was chaotic.

Then an order came from behind them.

“Tea Words, Glutinous Rice, bring a group and charge to the left! The others, follow me!”

Phoenix Dances’ expression was filled with rage. Some hints of murderous intent could also be seen on her face. She reacted quickly, and without another word, she led the group into the forest to the right.

She was dressed in Yellow Dragon Archer Gear and had a Bamboo Hat over her head. She looked heroic when she took the lead and charged in front of the others. Her Silver-spiked Staff spun in her hands like a mad demon, and it looked like a huge silver plate in front of her! The arrows that rushed at her simply could not get past her staff, and she drastically reduced the threat that brothers behind her had to face.

But Phoenix Dances was in a great deal of discomfort.

Even though Mad Demon Dish Staff’s defense was great, when she had to face multiple people with high-tier bow techniques at Grandmaster Realm and many arrows fired at her, a clear trail of red appeared at the corners of her lips.

Phoenix Dances knew that if she could persevere for even one more second, the number of brothers behind her who would die would be reduced as well. Hence, she did not care about her injuries. She just gritted her teeth and stood in front of her brothers without making a sound.

The moment she rushed into the forest, she shouted and jumped off her steed. Her Silver-spiked Staff was like a huge and unmoveable silver dish. With a sound that could tear through the air, she instantly pounced on a group of Class One Hall members who were changing their weapons.

Bang!

The internal injuries Phoenix Dances had suffered were quite bad. So when she exchanged blows with people from Class One Hall, she was struck in the stomach by a few players working together to attack her. She grunted and fell back.

However, Phoenix Dances’ protection had provided an excellent chance for her faction members. More than one hundred people charged out from behind her and pounced on the group who had laid in ambush in the forest with an astonishing momentum.

When they saw that Phoenix Dances had fought with desperation and did not care about her own safety, the blood of the girls and boys behind her surged!

“Kill them!”

“Slice up these bastards!”

In just a moment, hundreds of people rushed into the forest in an endless stream.

The people from Class One Hall were not easy to deal with, however. Even though they were very surprised by Phoenix Dances’ act of charging forward ahead of the others to attract the fire and full of admiration for her, when they saw the people from Beautiful Robes Faction rush at them at a number greater than their own, they quickly became calm again and activated their qi realms and body fortifications.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

All sorts of powerful presences rose within the forest. Everyone’s qi surged, and for a period of time, fallen leaves danced in the air while sand and pebbles flew up.

Hundreds of people were engaged in a fight.

The people from Beautiful Robes Faction continued charging forward nonstop from behind Phoenix Dances!

Once nearly one hundred people from their side were sacrificed, Beautiful Robes Faction finally made Class One Hall’s formation scatter. They formed multiple parties of a few people, and each party dealt with one person, allowing them to actually be able to challenge Class One Hall’s elites.

Phoenix Dances took two Dew Pills while Bloody Flying Dragon and a few others protected her. She cast a glance at the battle situation, clenched her teeth, and rushed back into the battle without hesitation.

*****

Class One Hall members had an advantage that the members and elites of a normal sect did not have in terms of combat. They were even stronger in unique environments.

Each of them had quite a bit of experience in fighting alone against many.

They did not panic when they were faced with multiple enemies. They just moved quickly and swung their weapons so that they did not give a chance for the Beautiful Robes Faction members to attack them from all sides. Whenever an opportune moment arrived, they also activated Wind Spirit Spin and threatened a group at the same time.

Quite a few people from Beautiful Robes Faction tried to rely on their advantage in numbers and brute strength to oppress their enemy, but the elites dexterously avoided most of their attacks before they swung their weapons to strike them fatally.

However, while this tactic of theirs was effective against the normal members of Beautiful Robes Faction, they could not gain an advantage against all people.

Bloody Flying Dragon might be quiet and gentle in reality, but when he was in the game, he swung his longspear like a madman. His Silver Dragon Spear attacked like an agile snake. By himself, he forced a Class One Hall elite into a corner until the other had trouble defending himself.

In a moment of carelessness, he was struck from Rampaging Dragon, who approached him quietly from behind. Coincidentally, he then crashed right into Silver Dragon Spear’s tip, which had appeared there as if it was alive, and pierced right through his heart.

Glutinous Rice’s Jade Shuttle Sword Technique took many people’s lives, and Phoenix Dances, Tea Words, as well as the others also killed quite a number of Class One Hall’s elites.

If things continued to progress in such a manner, even though Beautiful Robes Faction would suffer quite a large number of deaths, their advantage in numbers would increase drastically as time passed, and the four hundred or so people from Class One Hall might all die.

Many people began to be anxious.

‘Why haven’t Chief Clouds and his group arrived yet?’
