Chapter 967: What Is Your Name?
Wild Wolves was an international mercenary group that was rather strict in discipline among other mercenary groups. Even though they were just in a game, even if a situation changed, this Wild Wolf still treated completing his task as his most important mission without hesitation. Besides, they had already sacrificed two of their elites for the ambush against Wind Chimes in Common Reed Bank, and the price they paid cannot be considered small. Even though his killing intent toward Happy was getting stronger, his rationality still occupied a dominant position in his mind.
His target in his mission was Wind Chimes.
Almost at the moment the Wild Wolf finished speaking and raised his hand to throw that thin and black glare to kill the powerless Wind Chimes first so that he can complete his mission. Then, he would kill this Chinese elite who popped out of nowhere without anything else bothering him. At the very least, from his perspective, if this person could gain the upperhand in a fight against him twice and use the profound skill of Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n, which was a low-level body fortification technique, to fight against him, he was definitely among the top-cla.s.s elites in the Chinese server.
However, if the Wild Wolf understood the meaning behind killing Wind Chimes once, there was no way Happy would not know their goal. He knew about it even clearer than those Wild Wolves. If Wind Chimes died even once, it would mean that all her efforts would go to waste. She would need one year at the very least to recover, and the impact of this on Wandering Know-it-all and Wind Chimes was very great.
Hence, from the moment he drew close to this place and noticed Wind Chimes’ condition, Happy paid close attention to every single action that Wild Wolf did.
Once Tendon Changing Cla.s.sic reached the ninth realm, his hearing became sharper, and his eyes became clearer. His perception of his surroundings was very strong, and his detection skills were no longer inferior to Nine Yang Divine Skill.
At the moment Wild Wolves raised his hand, Happy charged to Wind Chimes before the glare could reach her, even though he acted a little later than that Wild Wolf.
Whoos.h.!.+
The Wild Wolf’s hidden weapon technique was incredibly discreet, but so was Happy’s other act. At the moment Happy charged to Wind Chimes, it concealed Happy’s other action, causing that Wild Wolf to be unable to detect it.
Clang!
The sound was clear. The sound of metal intersected with each other.
That thin and black glare was intercepted by a snow-white light. Both lights sank into the ground near Wind Chimes.
That accurate and beautiful throwing knife not only shocked Wind Chimes, but even that Wild Wolf had his expression sink. His gaze when he stared at Happy became more solemn and dangerous.
“Thinking of bullying a little girl just because you can’t win against me? You call yourself skilled when you do this? Are all Wild Wolves only this skilled?” Happy already appeared in front of Wind Chimes. He stared at that Wild Wolf, whose expression was dark, and slowly got up.
That Wild Wolf snorted coldly before he suddenly laughed. “I’d like to see just how you’ll protect her!”
Even though the strength Happy displayed was great, seemed experienced, and even seemed to be restraining himself, fighting against him was one thing, and protecting a useless, normal person in front of a powerful enemy was another matter.
This meant that next, Happy had to stand in front of Wind Chimes without moving an inch. If he did and missed blocking even a single attack, Wind Chimes might end up dead.
“Isn’t your close-quarters combat abilities really good? I’d like to see how long you can last under my attacks.”
Right when he finished talking, three black glares shot out.
Happy’s expression instantly became unpleasant.
Just as expected, this person was incredibly sensible.
He actually used the advantage of his qi realm to launch long-distance attacks. Because of that, he cannot move at all and can only brace himself to receive his attacks while he stood in front of Wind Chimes.
Black flames instantly filled his longsword.
At the moment the lights approached him, Happy attacked.
His body shuddered slightly. Happy seemed to have easily blocked those fierce lights. He did not even take half a step back.
The Wild Wolf looked surprised again. “What high Arm Strength.
“You seldom see a player who has such high Arm Strength and Affinity at the same time when you’re just at Moksha Realm.”
When he reached the last part, he did not forget to add a hostile sentence. “Your movements are also incredibly agile.”
“I will never forget your kindness in saving me. Regardless of whether I live or not today, I, Wind Chimes, will definitely recommend you to my master and repay you greatly,” Wind Chimes said behind Happy.
‘Repay me greatly?
‘This Wind Chimes doesn’t seem as adorable as the girl over there.’
While he thought of that, Happy suddenly noticed that Wind Chimes seemed to be using his body to hide some movements.
Happy did not turn his head around, and neither did he say anything. But he understood that Wind Chimes must have said those words to divert the Wild Wolf’s attention.
Coincidentally, he felt that this Wild Wolf was indeed very troublesome and difficult to deal with, which was why he decided to go along with Wind Chimes’ topic and laughed. “I see, so you’re Wind Chimes, known as Demonic Zither in the game. I heard that everyone will need to pay ten million taels of silver to have your master hide them once. At that time, if you can get your master to hide me multiple times so that I’m not located by b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, it’ll do.”
“That’s not a problem!” While Wind Chimes answered loudly, she discreetly and quietly dragged over the Sky Demon Zither that was tossed to the side.
While both conversed with each other, they looked as if they were not paying attention to the Wild Wolf.
That Wild Wolf laughed coldly. “Looks like you do indeed know Wild Wolves, but you dared to stop us from our goal? No matter who it is, no one can protect you!”
“Hmph, I’d say that the one who can protect himself is you!”
Wind Chimes said with a cold gaze, “Since you attacked me, then you should be prepared to be chased down by the entire Chinese server! From the moment you attacked, my master should have already obtained the news and ordered people to kill you. Do you think that you have the chance to leave the Chinese server?!”
Even though she still did not have any true qi, her words were still very intimidating. Even though Wind Chimes and Wandering Know-it-all did not belong to any organization, Wandering Know-it-all had an otherworldly position in the Chinese server, and his disciple, Wind Chimes, was Six-fingered Demonic Zither’s only successor. Her song can break a person’s soul, and both people actually had a good relations.h.i.+p with most sects in the game. They could mobilize forces at any moment they want.
With Wandering Know-it-all’s golden reputation calling out to them, hunting down a few people in the Chinese server was nothing difficult.
“Heh, you’re already almost dead, and you’re still acting so tough?!”
That Wild Wolf was already used to death and blood, there was no way he would be intimidated by a girl. “Even if you want to stall for time, it’s useless. The city closest to this place is a few miles from this place. When Wandering Know-it-all’s people arrive, I would have fled without a trace. As for the other two… Do you actually think that those amateurs will be able to stop us when we want to break out of a place?”
He stopped talking for a moment before he laughed coldly again. “Girl, you’re thinking about stalling for time?
“Unfortunately, I already don’t have the interest of wasting my breath with you. You two will die here today!”
His eyes shone with a gold glare. The Wild Wolf attacked swiftly, and in an instant, he threw three knives, and he also vanished from the spot.
Happy’s expression changed a little.
When he attacked just now, he was just testing Happy. By now, it seemed like the Wild Wolf had truly lost his patience, and he was prepared to use force.
Once he locked down the person’s figure, Happy went up with great resolution.
Dragon Coil!
At the moment he moved away to leave Wind Chimes, the fourth style in Ten True Dragon Styles descended, and an invisible as well as vast presence gathered quickly in front of Happy.
His defense for Indestructible Body increased by leaps and bounds, and it withstood the Wild Wolf’s three knives.
Under the Wild Wolf’s surprised gaze, Happy was struck thrice, but he did not even sway. In a moment, he arrived in front of the Wild Wolf.
“Get lost!”
But the Wild Wolf reacted quickly. When he saw Happy breaking or receiving his attacks repeatedly, his heart never wavered. He threw out another knife unthinkingly. Then, with an astonis.h.i.+ng speed, he left behind an afterimage, intending to circ.u.mnavigate Happy and killing Wind Chimes first.
But at the moment he moved, he saw Happy bizarrely avoid the knife, but that was not all, he suddenly formed a claw with one hand and came to grab him! When he did this, he was filled with openings, and the places he could not defend were all revealed.
‘What’s going on?’
Right when this thought appeared in the Wild Wolf’s mind, his expression soon changed.
A power he could not hope to resist traveled out from Happy’s hand.
His body froze.
The direction in which he wanted to move was seen through beforehand, and he seemed to have intentionally delivered himself into Happy’s hand.
‘Is this a method to block acupressure points?’
A bone-chilling sensation rose in the Wild Wolf’s heart, and he had already made the intention to activate his body fortification so that he can withstand Happy’s attacks.
Unfortunately, since he was successful in using Dragon Capture, Happy will clearly not easily lose his chance to destroy his enemy.
He grabbed, seized, twisted, and flipped him.
The Wild Wolf was instantly treated like a rascal on the streets and was easily sent tumbling on the ground.
During the chaos, the Wild Wolf sensed that his arm was still in Happy’s grasp.
Hidden force entered his body. He could not gather his qi together at all. His face instantly turned pale, and it was only at that moment that he noticed he had carelessly run into a top-cla.s.s elite skilled in using hidden force.
While he was airborne, he noticed a cold expression appear on Happy’s face. Then, a series of almost terrifying blows laced with hidden force shot into him through his joints and important acupressure points.
Thud!
At that moment, Wind Chimes widened her eyes in disbelief while she watched. She could not believe what she saw.
When the Wild Wolf engaged in close-quarters combat with the mysterious swordsman, he was grabbed, and he was sent somersaulting in the air like a sandbag.
Happy’s punches landed nonstop on the Wild Wolf’s body.
From the scene of that Wild Wolf having his blood gush everywhere, Wind Chimes was certain that there was no need for her to use the hidden weapon she drew from her Sky Demon Zither.
The mysterious and unfamiliar swordsman, oh no, she should refer to him as a martial artist now, did not give the Wild Wolf a chance to struggle or fight back. He did not even have the right to land on the ground. In less than ten seconds, he was struck at least thirty times, and his face was even disfigured.
“When did such a powerful elite appear in the Chinese server?” Wind Chimes sucked in a deep breath. If it were not because her master Wandering Know-it-all could clearly investigate a person’s origins and everything else about him, she would truly wonder whether her savior was sent by Wild Wolves.
This lasted for around half a minute before Happy finally stopped attacking.
Thud!
The Wild Wolf’s corpse crashed against the ground like a torn sandbag. His face was bruised and mangled. Not a single piece of uninjured flesh could be seen on him.
“…You’re too violent.”
“Yeah, kind of.” Happy giggled a little bashfully. He suddenly turned to Wind Chimes and said seriously, “Now, it’s time for me to get my reward.”
“Oh.” Wind Chimes was stunned.
‘Aren’t the heroes who save people in the land of wanderers supposed to have a strong sense of integrity and are humble? But this guy…’
“Don’t worry, there aren’t many Wild Wolves in the Chinese server. They won’t start taking revenge on you right now. So could you protect me so that I can leave this place?” Wind Chimes explained.
“If I help a person, I will help them to the end. I will naturally bring you to Suzhou, but later on, could you tell your master to repay my kindness and use his Universe Secrets Inkstone so that a normal diviner will not be able to easily find me?”
“By listening to your words, you seem to have a lot of enemies. By the way, I still don’t know what your name is.”
“Happy.”
Wind Chimes was stunned silent.
