Chapter 992: Each Player Have Their Own Fighting Style
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“???”
Hearing what 2012 said, Martial Yin Yang was slightly taken aback. Before Martial Yin Yang could respond properly, he could hear arrows piercing through the air as well as magic spells being cast.
Everyone from Divine Martial Guild lifted their heads to see a sky filled with magic spells and arrows flying towards them from all directions.
The terrain of Dusk Swamp was a blend of a swamp and forest as all the paths were extremely muddy. Without an Ice wizard to pave the way, the players from Divine Martial Guild moved incredibly slowly. In that instant, all of them turned into the target of the long-distance players from Twilight City.
Presently, Divine Martial Guild was merely left with seven to eight thousand players and the number of players from Twilight City was over ten times greater than them. Furthermore, Divine Martial Guild lost all their long-distance players which meant that they couldn’t fight back. After waves of such overwhelming firepower, Divine Martial Guild was completely wiped out in less than ten minutes.
“Wow, Fearless is really the true boss. This stratagem is truly brilliant! I can’t believe we slaughtered the entire Divine Martial Guild in just a few rounds.”
It was a complete victory for their first fight and it was against a respectable opponent like Divine Martial Guild. This made everyone in Twilight City a happy person, especially 2012, who started showing off to Sanguine Warflag and the rest.
“F*ck!”
After receiving 2012’s news, Sanguine Warflag hid in Dusk Forest to observe the enemies.
Without Fearless’ order to attack, Sanguine Warflag could only watch the enemies wander in front of him.
When he saw how arrogant 2012 was acting, Sanguine Warflag started to feel slightly frustrated. After all, he was still the leader of the second greatest guild in Twilight City. How could he allow the leader of a small guild to enjoy all the glory by himself? Sanguine Warflag could no longer control himself as he sent Fearless a message, “Boss Fearless, are we still going to wait? Can’t we fight them now?”
“Have they crossed Dusk Canyon?” Fearless asked.
“Quite a number of them have entered Dusk Forest.”
“Alright!” Fearless replied, “Detonate the snare and a.s.sa.s.sins to start hara.s.sing them!”
“Yes, Sir!”
The moment he received Fearless’ command, Sanguine Warflag gave his order with excitement.
At the same time, a series of loud explosions could be heard from within Dusk Canyon.
When the army of outsiders, who were advancing forward, heard the series of explosions from behind them, they were all startled as they turned around hurriedly. At that moment, a bunch of a.s.sa.s.sins popped out from nowhere as they executed [Haste] and blended in with the crowd.
These outsiders invading Twilight City were all from different guilds and different main cities who didn’t know each other at all. When they saw the a.s.sa.s.sins blending in with them, all of them panicked and started attacking each other.
At this moment, the advanced troops in Dusk Forest also heard the commotion. When they realised that their back army was attacked, they were anxious and even wanted to turn back.
Before these troops could leave Dusk Forest, a bunch of Warriors appeared out of nowhere to block their path.
When all the players were starting to lose their head out of fear, countless Twilight City’s players started revealing their heads from on top of the trees around them. In a blink of an eye, the advanced troops were surrounded on all fronts.
When all the targets in the forest had been finished off by Twilight City’s players, the intruders in Dusk Canyon were slowly forced into the forest by Twilight City’s a.s.sa.s.sins.
The Warriors guarding the entrance intentionally left a gap to allow these players in. Following which, they were surrounded and once again, all exterminated like pests.
The terrains of Dusk Canyon and Dusk Swamp were vastly different. Due to the restrictions of the terrain in Dusk Swamp, it was much easier for ambus.h.i.+ng and be ambushed.
Other than the one canyon in Dusk Canyon, the other areas were open s.p.a.ce and the most suitable place to plan an ambush was the neighbouring Dusk Forest.
Therefore, Dusk Canyon was an extremely suitable entrance for a large number of players to enter Twilight City. As compared to Dusk Swamp, this was a much tougher place to defend. Hence, there was a need for them to separate the enemies to achieve their goal of intercepting the army and obliterating them.
Under Fearless’ command, both Sanguine Warflag and 2012 attained complete victory. At the same time, both of them learnt Fearless’ fighting style.
For the next few rounds, the experience made the process much easier than before.
It was true that there were a lot of intruders but each of them was only fighting for themselves which made them extremely disorganised in terms of fighting strength. There were only a minute few who could actually put up a fight against the players from Twilight City.
There was no longer the need for Fearless to command or give orders. Everyone simply started drawing a gourd from the model. With the absolute advantage in numbers, all of the intruders were successfully blocked at the entrance by the men led by Sanguine Warflag and 2012 at minimal cost.
As compared to the entrances at Dusk Swamp and Dusk Canyon, Dusk Mountain Range was much more peaceful.
This was because the other side of Dusk Mountain Range was actually the Dark Faction.
Twilight City’s problem was an internal contradiction so the Dark Faction was simply there to watch the show as they would naturally not want to get involved.
Moreover, the path from Dusk Mountain Range to Twilight City was a one-metre-wide mountain road where one man could hold off any quant.i.ty of enemy. As long as the intruders had a little IQ, it was enough for them to know that they shouldn’t choose this path to enter.
For that reason, Fearless allowed Captain Don’t Open Fire and less than ten thousand men to guard this area.
When Captain Don’t Open Fire and his men saw how Sanguine Warflag and 2012 were constantly reporting their victories, they were infuriated and frustrated. All of them started cursing at how Fearless was using public office to avenge private wrongs by giving Void Blade such a useless role.
…
After the war lasted for a whole two hours, from 11 pm to 1 am, Twilight City held the absolute advantage and none of the intruders managed to advance half a step beyond what Fearless planned.
At this moment, the system announced the first armistice announcement.
The armistice will last up to 8 am the next day.
It seemed like the system was still humane as they knew they shouldn’t force players to play the game overnight.
When w.a.n.g Yu saw the announcement, he finally heaved a sigh of relief as he got offline immediately to sleep.
The players from Twilight City were all still energetic and excited for more fights. However, realising that the actual war was far from being over, they hurriedly went offline to rest.
On the other hand, those intruders who tried their luck today were all sleepless.
Two hours of war and there were countless death for the intruders. Without even seeing the faces of their enemies, all of them were taken out one wave after another.
No matter how many players they had, this was not a way to fight.
While some of them took their time to rest for the next day, others started researching and a.n.a.lysing other ways to enter Twilight City.
At this moment, Captain Don’t Open Fire started hara.s.sing Fearless to prevent him from going offline.
“Boss Fearless, I know we have our disagreements in the past, but we want to do something for Twilight City too. Can you not do this to us? We haven’t seen a single soul in the past two hours.” Captain Don’t Open Fire was on the verge of crying.
After all, he brought over ten thousand men to guard Dusk Mountain Range and in two hours, they didn’t even spot a single enemy. He certainly felt like a complete fool.
Fearless was also helpless when Captain Don’t Open Fire came to hara.s.s him so he asked, “Have you cut down the firewood that I told you about?”
“We’re done with that, and because we have nothing else to do in the two hours, almost every one of us has a bunch of firewood with us.” Captain Don’t Open Fire continued, “We are still a large guild so you cannot possibly continue treating us like the reserve army right? Furthermore, is there even any use for firewood in this game?”
Fearless nodded his head, “There is a use and a very good use for it!”
