Chapter 133 (Brave Victory!)
Murong Shan Shan frowned and said to herself, “This idiot Mad Warrior, how did he end up together with Romantic Master?”
“That’s natural. Birds of a feather flock together.” Young and Frivolous said with a smile.
Stealing the Heaven, the Thief with the highest level in “Swords and Roses” quietly hid in the darkness while still manage to turn around and said, “Murong Shan Shan, give out your orders. They will soon start to move. This is the first battle after the guild is established.”
…
Soon after, in the guild channel, Murong Shan Shan words could be heard clearly, “Everyone, pay attention to the formation. All melee players go to the front, protect the Mages and Clerics. All Summoners summon your beast to fight in front with the fighters. All Thieves stay in stealth and find an opportunity to attack the opponent’s Clerics and Mages. Archers release the sentinel skill to uncover their Thieves.”
I quickly turned around to ask, “Then, what about me? Should I get stealthy or become a Tank?”
Murong Shan Shan laughed, “Both of us are going to fight in the most front to attract their firepower. I’ll let a small group of Clerics heal us.”
“No. What if we can’t stand the attack and die?”
“What are you afraid of? There’s still me.”
…
The scene on the mountain road became full with swords and arrows. Since they were already waiting for us here, it was obvious that Romantic Master and Mad Warrior had long before received the information that we were going to the Silvermoon Mountain. Seeing that their numbers weren’t less than ours, more and more players had come from the Silvermoon City.
Murong Shan Shan quickly strategized, “The people behind should watch carefully. Block anyone who tried to get on this road except for our guild’s member. If they are trying to break in by force, kill them immediately.”
It began to get lively at the back as the sound of fighting could be heard. Here in front, Romantic Master and Mad Warrior also started to give pressure. All melee players from both sides were lined up at the front. The players were all cramped into several layers. From behind, the range-attack players also constantly throwing out their skills. Light-blue lights and fire-red lights flashed continuously without stopping.
With Murong Shan Shan’s command, our front lines began to march forward. Holding the attack formation, the Mages and Archers at the back had started to attack the opponent’s fighters at the front.
Various colors of spells and arrows whistled over our heads. Clanking sounds could be heard when they hit the armor of the opponent’s Swordsmen and Knights, followed by a scene of splashing white lights. Dozens of players at the front immediately fell on the ground without even having a chance to let out a groan and gradually transforming into lights of souls.
For most of the players here, it was their first time to experience this kind of large PK involving thousands of players. Although seeing dozens of players getting insta-killed, none of the other players retreated. With their eyes bloodshot, Romantic Master and his group rushed over.
The two sides quickly came into contact. Brilliant lights shone as the result of the melee player’s skills. Just before the clash, dozens of players were getting insta-killed again. This time, several players from our side that were in the group where Murong Shan Shan and I were, had died.
The Mages of both sides began to release their AOE skills. Fortunately, at the moment, there weren’t many players capable of AOE skills that they didn’t affect the situation too much.
During this close quarter battle, the Thieves of both sides had also appeared withing the Mages formation of the enemies. The rear of both sides immediately fell into a chaos. Murong Shan Shan quickly issued a command, “Archers use Aeon Flux shots, Mages attack with Exploding Flames.”
After a series of booming and rumbling from the explosions, it was much quieter at the back. However, the group of Thieves led by Stealing the Heaven was in a much better condition. We could still hear the stabbing sounds of the Thieves coming from the rear sides of the enemy.
The gap gradually showed. The players from Romantic World’s and Mad Warrior’s group were not selected from the best after all, and were most the players that played in another online games together. Their levels, equipment, and operation skills were inferior to ours, especially the Mages, the gap was very large. Romantic World’s people were mostly melee players, compared to our sides, where the majority was Mages. Just after a round of attack, a big number of opponent’s fighters were immediately killed. However, their Mages could only cause the players on our side to lose half of their Healths, giving the Clerics the opportunity to heal.
Romantic Master was clearly in a panic. He yelled, “All Mages and Archers focus on killing Murong Shan Shan and Qing Cai Baiyu Tang immediately.”
Murong Shan Shan was startled and quickly said in the channel, “Clerics! Prepare to heal us!”
When she just finished her words, the first round of attacks had arrived.
“Bang~ Bang~” A series of sounds were heard, and unexpectedly, Murong Shan Shan’s Health was knocked out almost empty.
Fortunately, the Clerics had received their orders. The Mages, who could attack Murong Shan Shan within the distance of 30 yards, weren’t that many. But even so, I was still shocked. Murong Shan Shan’s face also didn’t look very nice, she nervously looked at me.
“Swish~ swish~”
Dozens of healing lights enveloped Murong Shan Shan, and instantly brought her Health back up.
“So lucky.”
Murong Shan Shan let out a relieved smile. She then quickly released her Sword Qi, and in front of her, a form of a huge horizontal, knife light immediately cut across.
“Boom~.”
The intense booming sound shook people’s eardrum, causing a great pain. Stones and dirt on the mountain path went flying and scattered away. It was those fighters who had to bear the brunt. Dozens of the frontest players fell down and lost more than half of their Health. Those with less Health were instantly killed. The Mages in the formation behind the fighters were in a more miserable shape. The Sword Qi shredded dozens of the Mages and Clerics as if shredding dry leaves, and they all transformed into white soul lights under Murong Shan Shan’s powerful attack.
I was stupefied.
Murong Shan Shan’s Sword Qi must have risen to level 5, otherwise, its power would certainly not be so great.
In [Moon Monochrome], with the level’s advance of the skills, the skills effect would also change greatly. Since she had just risen to Level 40, she must have taken some time to develop her Sword Qi to Level 5.
“I’ll be damned, this is too sick!” Romantic Master’s eyeballs almost fell off as he cried from afar.
I also secretly mused. Murong Shan Shan certainly should have acquired a new equipment, which perhaps increased the Attack Range.
Right at this moment, the Sword of Darkness in my hand suddenly burst out a strong cold.
Damn, finally, Black Ice Sword.
Several blue ice cones broke into the chest of a Knight in front of me.
When the ice cone exploded, that fighter had died without even tasting the whole strength of the skill. However, the skill’s effect didn’t stop just because of this. Several ice cones rapidly continued to pierce further and ripped through the bodies of several warriors at the back. Even the Mages, which were 10 yards away, were also affected to some extent and lost half of their Health. If the level of my skill was a bit higher, perhaps they would also have the same fates as the warriors.
