Chapter 753: Joining Hands

Translator: alyschu

"Are you courting death?"

High Fighting Spirits swung his warhammer violently and shouted, "I’m gonna yeet you off!"

Raging flames burst forth from his warhammer and sent a bunch of Northern Alliance riders flying from the ramparts. At this moment, High Fighting Spirits trembled as he was hit by eight fireballs and countless arrows. Even the Northern Alliance mages and archers had started to fill the city and put pressure on our troops.

The battlefield had gotten so chaotic that it was hard to tell friend from foe.

I summoned my Ice Qilin Horse and charged back and forth on the ramparts. The Phantom Wolf let out a howl as it followed after me and killed any opponents within its attack range.

He Yi swung her Blade of the Earthen Soul, hurling any Northern Alliance players off the ramparts. Meanwhile, the Firelight Mouse on her shoulder waved its tail and instantly enveloped a group of enemies with blazing fire.

Beiming Xue ran gracefully, reaching the borders of the city walls. With a tug of her bowstring, her arrows were shot at a bunch of enemies. Her Purgatory Thunder Beast was by her side, brandishing its claws and sinking them into the flesh of our enemies. At the same time, it continuously unleashed bolts of lightning upon its enemies. It was so powerful that many enemies were killed instantly!

......

The numerous arrow towers were activated within the city. Thick steel arrows were shot out continuously as they whistled through the air and pierced through the armors of the Northern Alliance players. The P2W arrow towers of a tier 2 city were OP. Their great attack power made them one of our best forms of protection.

"Defend the city! We will never give in!" Hot and Sour Noodles shouted.

Under the command of He Yi and I, a group of Dragonlight Cavalrymen started to summon their mounts. Getting into battle formation, we activated Charge and dashed forward on the ramparts. Gui Guzi, Heaven’s Rain and the other magic knights moved swiftly and formed a line at the edge. Proving to be our best form of protection, they held out their shields and blocked our troops from the enemy’s volleys of arrows and spells.

Vienna’s Sorrow urged his mount forward and shouted, "Everyone attack! Attack with everything we’ve got! Fuck! I refuse to believe that we can’t take down this puny Dawn City! Archers, I want you to focus on the CGL Hall of Famers! Focus fire and kill Broken Halberd Sinks into Sand!"

My gaze turned cold and I growled in a low voice, "Eve, Little Gui, Little Rain, continue to defend the city. I’ll go meet with that bastard Vienna’s Sorrow!"

"Alright, be careful!"

I urged my horse forward and ran along the ramparts, charging toward the arrow towers. I scanned the battlefield in search of Vienna’s Sorrow and when I finally found him, I swiftly charged toward him. Jumping off the city walls, I leaped off the back of my horse while it was still in the air and brandished my sword. A swirl of indigo energy appeared on the tip of my sword as I shouted, "Vienna’s Sorrow! Die!"

"What?"

Vienna’s Sorrow jerked his head to look at me before swiftly bringing his sword up to block my sudden attack.

Clang!

My eyes widened in shock when he parried my Universe Break. Rarely had anyone parried my Universe Break!

Vienna’s Sorrow and I exchanged grins as our swords clashed. My body seemed to freeze in the air for an instant, and I felt like a hero in an action movie. Unfortunately, I wasn’t Neo so the laws of gravity still applied to me. I immediately started to fall, but I managed to plant my left leg firmly on the head of Vienna’s Sorrow’s mount. I immediately swung my right leg at his chest, a cluster of fire erupting around my foot as it slammed into him!

Bang!

Vienna’s Sorrow grunted in pain. My kick had done over 6000 damage to him. However I was not done with him yet! I grabbed hold of his mount’s reins with one hand and swung myself around its body, my sword fiercely jabbing toward Vienna’s Sorrow’s side.

Clang!

I gritted my teeth in frustration. My sword was once again parried due to Vienna’s Sorrow’s precise judgement. However, in a duel between two experts, one could not just rely on parrying attacks. I retracted my sword and swiftly delivered a kick to Vienna’s Sorrow’s face!

Bang!

7892!

That kick thoroughly humiliated Vienna’s Sorrow and he flew into rage instantly. Without waiting for the cooldowns of his attacks, he lifted his left hand to deliver a punch with a loud cry. I too brought up a fist swiftly, our knuckles meeting with a loud bang. I trembled at the great impact before doing a backflip, landing beautifully on the back of my Ice Qiin Horse.

A bunch of Northern Alliance riders behind me turned red with anger. Raising their swords, they shouted as they charged at me, "Goddammit! It was this bastard that slaughtered our 100000-strong Behemoth Cavalry and 50000-strong Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry! He must die! Comrades, attack! Our city lords will definitely knight us if we manage to kill this asshole!"

I laughed heartily at their words as I retreated swiftly. Soon after, my back hit the city wall with a bang. With a swing of my sword, I unleashed Burning Blade Slash. Three consecutive crescent waves of sword energy were shot out and exploded amid a group of enemies!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

These three consecutive attacks had a 200% Attack buff from Martial God making them extremely OP. A string of damage numbers amounting to more than 200000 floated above the heads of that group of magic knights. Their eyes turned as wide as saucers when they noticed that the last attack had dealt more than 50000 damage. Needless to say, that group of magic knights collapsed to the ground and died instantly.

My attacks were too OP and the damage I dealt to my opponents was far greater than their max HP. It was easy for my sword to tear into armor and flesh, leaving the body parts of my enemies scattered across the battlefield

Vienna’s Sorrow turned red with anger when he saw that I had one-shot his trusted aide. Raising his sword, he charged straight at me and shouted, "Broken Halberd, die!"

Clang!

A look of surprise appeared on my face as he knocked the Cyan Netherworld Sword aside. Oh shit! Vienna’s Sorrow really knew some amazing techniques. He had slid his sword in at an angle, completely diverting my blade away from its intended destination. It would take another 0.5 seconds for Universe Break’s spiral of indigo energy to coalesce around my sword again.

A supreme expert could do many things in half of a second.

Vienna’s Sorrow roared as the golden light poured from his blade. The image of a snarling beast’s head appeared above the tip of his sword before he fiercely thrust it toward my chest, causing a huge damage number to pop up above my head. Unfortunately for me, Vienna’s Sorrow wasn’t done yet! His blade flashed out with lightning speed as he immediately followed up with Triple Slash! I hurriedly brought my sword up, but I could only block one of those three attacks. The string of damage numbers that followed instantly caused my face to go pale with shock.

51781!

MISS!

MISS!

25832!

26623!

......

He had instantly dealt more than 100000 damage to me! His attack power was simply terrifying! This was especially true for that first skill of his, Beast Howl Slash. Just how high had it boosted his Attack to? It had to be some insane number, because he had actually managed to deal more than 50000 damage to me in one hit! No one in the entire China server had managed to do that before!

Bang!

I quickly grabbed hold of his blade with one hand and tried to ignore the burning sensation on my palms. I thrust my blade forward and unleashed Universe Break + War Crush right at Vienna’s Sorrow!

Pchhtt!

A string of damage numbers flew up instantly as Universe Break tore through the armor of Vienna’s Sorrow with ease.

39088!

21832!

21029!

19237!

I returned the favor and dealt 100000 damage to Vienna’s Sorrow. Unfortunately for me, his equipment was extremely OP. His equipment was even more powerful than mine! His Famous General Skill, Knight General, buffed his Attack and Defense by 100%. To add on to that, his Berserker class allowed him to equip a shield. He definitely possessed the upper hand in this duel.

Clang!

Sparks flew as Vienna’s Sorrow parried my blow. Under the intense force of our attacks, our arms trembled as we both took a few steps backward.

I gritted my teeth as I felt the attacks of the Northern Alliance players bombard me from behind. I waved my hand and a crimson ray enveloped me instantly—Tenacity of the Dead!

+41727!

I downed a Rank 10 Saint Spirit Potion after recovering a large amount of health from using Tenacity of the Dead. My health regenerated at breakneck speed due to my passive skill, Regeneration of the Undead and with the help of my Rank 10 Saint Spirit Potion.

Vienna’s Sorrow raised his sword in the air, and caused threads of energy that resembled green vines to crawl up around him and his mount. His HP started to refill at an alarming rate.

......

"You truly are a formidable opponent!" Vienna’s Sorrow looked straight at me as a small smile appeared on his face. "You’re even stronger than the acclaimed Martial God of China, Candlelight Shadow. How shocking! I had to activate my invincibility skill because he used Ghost God Prophecy on me. I wonder what exactly you’ll force me to give up today."

I raised my sword and spat out every word slowly with a smile, "YOU CAN GIVE UP YOUR LIFE!"

"Hmph! What arrogant words!"

Vienna’s Sorrow held his sword at an angle as he urged his mount forward. At this moment, rays of healing spells by the Northern Alliance priests started to envelop him. Each spell added ten thousand to his health and he regained full health within a matter of seconds.

I started to panic at the sight of this. He was a powerful opponent whose max HP was in no way lower than mine. To kill him, I would have to deliver extremely powerful attacks in a blink of an eye to prevent him from recovering any health.

Raising my hand, I unleashed Icy Cyclone Domain into a group of Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen behind me. They were there for two reasons. Firstly, to protect Vienna’s Sorrow and secondly, to find opportunities to eliminate me.

I truly had too much on my plate. I had a formidable opponent before me and a large group of enemies behind me. Goddammit! I’m in deep waters now!

Ding!

I received a message from Beiming Xue: "This isn’t fair, big bro! He has priests to heal him but you don’t! Let me help you out!"

"Yes! I love you to death, Beiming!" I exclaimed happily.

Beiming Xue giggled and replied, "I love you too, big bro! You can do it! Kill that bastard goat rider!"

......

Bang, bang...

I urged my mount forward and dashed through the falling snow, leaving the area I was in far behind. I charged toward the city in order to avoid being chased by the Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen. I flicked the reins of my mount and zigzagged toward the city at top speeds to avoid being locked on by the archers.

I ran around in a random pattern and changed the speed of my mount every now and then. The enemy archers probably wanted to tear their hair out in frustration as their arrows landed everywhere but on me.

"Hey!"

A look of shock flickered in Vienna’s Sorrow’s eyes before he chuckled involuntarily. Brandishing his sword, he charged toward me in a zigzag motion. Our swords tilted forward as we prepared to exchange blows with one another. All of the sudden, our mounts stopped zigzagging as we changed to a helix maneuver. God damn, we had both thought of the exact same thing!

"Die!"

Vienna’s Sorrow attacked the moment an opportunity presented itself! Flames erupted from his blade as he actually used a magic attack against me! A floating blade slashed my back, shaving off more than twenty thousand HP in an instant!

Swhoosh, swhoosh, swhoosh...

The Ice Qilin Horse charged through the snow before I pulled on its reins, and abruptly turned right. I swiftly ducked behind the shield of a Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalryman. That was an extremely successful move as Vienna’s Sorrow’s attack had completely missed me. His eyes turned as wide as saucers as he pointed a finger at that rider and shouted, "Goddammit! You, get lost!”

I urged my Ice Qilin Horse and charged out from behind the shield. I swiftly unleashed a crescent wave of sword energy at Vienna’s Sorrow, narrowly missing him. As I shot that wave of sword energy, I yelled out, "Beiming! Now!"

Pchhtt!

A dark green arrow flew at Vienna’s Sorrow and landed smack on Vienna’s Sorrow’s chest. As the arrow pierced through his breastplate, green light started to ripple from that arrow.

Combat Log: Player "Beiming Xue" used "Broken Feather Arrow", dealing 14657 damage to player "Vienna’s Sorrow”. Target will not be able to recover HP for ten seconds!"
