VRMMO: The Unrivaled

Chapter 735



"They’re retreating. They’re retreating! Hahaha, these bastards finally learned the strength of Hot Sand City! Kill them all, brothers and sisters! Don’t show them any mercy!"

At the battle line, a blade-wielding Northern Alliance berserker laughed madly as he chased after our withdrawing troops. However...

Thud!

An arrow hit him squarely on the head and dragged him down his horse. It was none other than Beiming Xue herself shooting Mountain Stagger Arrow at him.

Beiming Xue was the last ranged player to retreat from the battlefield, and she calmly let loose her Spiraling Arrow Blades and Evil Spirit Volleys to reduce the pressure on Du Thirteen’s Cyan Tiger Cavalry.

Outdone only by the Dragonlight Cavalry, the Cyan Tiger Cavalrymen led by Du Thirteen were without a doubt the most outstanding fighters of the Nation War. They had played all sorts of roles such as tanking, charging, and covering our retreat, and the losses they suffered was a testament to their hard work. Even now, they had to shoulder the undesirable burden of covering our army’s retreat again.

……

Eye of the Storm was swinging his blade left and right and leading the pursuit on Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls’ withdrawing troops. Battle cries could be heard everywhere in the small open plain.

Suddenly, the Dragonlight Cavalry led by me, Gui Guzi, He Yi and Li Chengfeng appeared from their wing and cut right into the center of their army. Behind me, the 1700+ riders buffed by all kinds of skills and stratagems hacked away at the enemy troops like mad.

"Shit! The Dragonlight Cavalry appeared again!"

The ally guild of The Storm was called Dawn. Their guild leader, a Heroic Bannerman and a warrior was shouting, "Watch out, everyone! The Dragonlight Cavalry is the strongest cavalry of China! Eye of the Storm, surround their troops from the wing and pressure their troops already! Otherwise, we’re no more than fishes on the chopping block!"

Eye of the Storm laughed loudly and pointed to the front. "There’s no need to be afraid, friend! Did you forget that we have a million riders, and the Dragonlight Cavalry numbers less than two thousand? Surround these bastards and kill them one by one!"

"Alright!"

Eye of the Storm was already charging toward the Dragonlight Cavalry with raging eyes. Clearly, the humiliation where we forced him to escape with his tail between his legs was still fresh in his mind. He shouted, "Grind them down! Don’t let even a single Dragonlight Cavalryman escape! The ace cavalry of the China server will be buried by our power, hahahaha…"

……

"What the fuck is that?"

High Fighting Spirits raised his eyebrows as he smashed apart the shields of three magic knights in one go. He then rushed into their midst, summoned the power of the Xiezhi Howl and exploded into an energetic cyclone. All the players around him were killed, and Eye of the Storm was forced to linger outside the skill.

However, the moment the skill faded, Eye of the Storm charged him and landed a triple hit on his shoulder!

Bang bang bang!

16277!

13472!

14282!

High Fighting Spirits only had 80k HP or so, so it wasn’t an insignificant amount of damage. Li Chengfeng immediately came to his aid and knocked Eye of the Storm’s Barrier Break to the side. He also seized the momentum to ram his Dragonlight Armored Horse into Eye of the Storm’s mount.

Boom!

Gathering the power of the cyan dragon’s soul around his right fist, Li Chengfeng slipped into Eye of the Storm’s lap and punched him right on the chest!

Bang!

The Heroic Bannerman screamed in pain. It was bad enough that the nobody had punched him for 27833 with his bare hands, but skill-wise he was completely outclassed by his opponent as well!

"You bastard! I’m going to kill you!" Eye of the Storm’s eyes were bloodshot at this point.

Li Chengfeng didn’t bother replying to the threat. He simply thrust his sword forward and used Dragonbone Flurry!

Chiang chiang chiang!

Eye of the Storm managed to parry the first strike but not the remaining two strikes. Then, Li Chengfeng dodged his counterattack with a beautiful half-arc trot around his enemy’s mount before pouncing back for another strike. This time, his sword glowed with the power of Cyan Dragon Horn!

Eye of the Storm panicked and tried to Guard with his shield. However, Li Chengfeng immediately followed up with a Crushing Blow that dropped his HP to less than 30%!

"How… how is this possible?"

In the end, the defeated Eye of the Storm had no choice but to escape with his bodyguards. If he dared to prolong the battle any further, the dragon warrior would kill him for sure.

……

The guild leader of Dawn was unperturbed, however. He swung his weapon and shouted, "Charge! Surround and kill them!"

Dawn’s men started charging and encircling around our troops. It wasn’t good news for us, of course. If the enemy managed to surround us, there was a real chance that our Dragonlight Cavalry would be routed by the enemy.

He Yi pointed her sword behind us and shouted, "Let’s break out and hit and run! Don’t fight them head-on!"

Li Chengfeng and High Fighting Spirits nodded and led the reverse charge.

While this was going on, I pointed my palm at the guild leader of Dawn and immobilized him with God Binding Art. After hitting him twice with Dragon Slaying Slash, I threw my sword at him using Sword Boomerang!

Bang bang bang!

19838!

20191!

27272!

Finally, I commanded the Phantom Wolf King to use Purgatory Storm!

Boom!

A gigantic storm engulfed the crowd with that guild leader right in the middle of it. Even through the bloody storm I could see the fleeting astonishment in his eyes. He probably never thought there would be a day where he was destroyed by a warrior from range. He toppled limply from his horse after his HP reached zero.

Ding~!

System Announcement: Attention all players, the Heroic Bannerman "Wise Eternal" (Vietnam) has been killed by player "Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand" (China)!

……

The kill lifted everyone’s spirits. We laughed as we fought and pulled away from the enemy in an orderly manner.

I looked to the horizon and saw the last group of ranged players entering Horse Hoof Valley. Another ten minutes or so, and we wouldn’t need to delay the enemy any longer.

Li Chengfeng asked, "Lu Chen, do you really think the Vietnamese would be this stupid? Would they really follow us into Horse Hoof Valley even though it’s obviously a trap?"

I smiled. "Well, you have to think about it this way. Eye of the Storm has a million cavalrymen, and there are only 100k or so of us. It is practically inconceivable that they’d lose to us, and you’ve seen yourself how confident he looked earlier. That being said, you do have a point. To make sure that they’ll definitely be baited into Horse Hoof Valley, I want you and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun to take a couple hundred men with you and lose horribly. Get it? The sorrier you look, the better! It is the key to all feints!"

Li Chengfeng smiled back. "God damn, you’re truly a shameless bastard. I know what to do…"

Li Chengfeng beckoned Gui Guzi and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun to follow him. Then, the three of them took 400 Dragonlight Cavalry with them, activated Knight God and started covering our retreat.

As I was riding toward the valley, I looked back and saw Li Chengfeng and the others engaging the enemy already. After causing a bit of havoc and losing about 75% of their HP, they started running toward our direction.

Thud!

Suddenly, Li Chengfeng’s mount stumbled and dropped its rider on the ground. Before the dragon warrior could get back to his feet, the horse actually took off and escaped on its own. Li Chengfeng stumbled behind his mount’s butt while screaming, "Why the fuck are you running, horse! Wait for me! I’m gonna die!"

Behind him, the previously-shamed Eye of the Storm immediately started chasing after him.

The good news was that Li Chengfeng ultimately managed to catch up to his mount and climb back to the harness. The bad news was...

Chaos Moon looked at me with twitching lips. "This… this is too fake, isn’t it??"

I grinned. "What are you talking about? This is first-class acting considering that Chengfeng’s all looks no substance type…"

He Yi: "..."

……

We swiftly entered Horse Hoof Valley and waited while Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun and the 400 Dragonlight Cavalrymen were still baiting Hot Sand City’s troops. Eye of the Storm had to be out of his mind with rage since he shouted even after he was advised by his subordinates, "So what if it is a trick! I have a million cavalry, you doofus! I can flatten this entire valley if I want to! Now charge! I will not stop until this entire Dragonlight Cavalry is dead!"

And so, the Vietnamese riders continued chasing after Li Chengfeng and the others at increasing speed. Both groups grew closer and closer.

It wasn’t long before a huge blob of enemies started pouring into the valley at high speed. From my position, I estimated that at least half of them had fallen into a death trap!

When the enemy was finally about to catch up to them, Gui Guzi passed the party leader to Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun and laughed, "Fly, Flying General!"

Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun laughed back and activated his Famous General Skill, boosting everyone’s speed by a whopping 300%. They instantly left the enemy’s attack range like lightning!

Xu Yang’s eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Holy shit, it’s like they’re on a high-speed rail or something!"

……

The sight of his prey slipping right through his grasp pissed off Eye of the Storm to no end. He shouted angrily, "Chase them! There is nowhere to go in this valley, so once they’re driven to a dead end all they can do is wait for us to kill them! Once we take out the best cavalry of the China server, Vienna’s Sorrow and his band of fuckers won’t be able to talk shit and look down on the warriors of Hot Sand City. Charge!"

I was shocked. Whoever made this translator deserved praise, because that was an entire passage of Vietnamese translated perfectly into Mandarin with perfect Beijing dialect...

"Little Gui, over here! Everyone, fall back!"

I led everyone back until we reached a rocky part of the forest. The terrain greatly affected a rider’s mobility, especially those with low-rank mounts. It was to the point where many Hot Sand City magic knights had no choice but to walk on foot after entering the valley.

I opened the communicator and contacted Du Thirteen, "Thirteen, block the valley entrance when their army is more or less inside. I leave the ninth and tenth subguilds to you as well. Do not let them escape no matter what!"

"Okay!"

Du Thirteen received the order gladly. After being a noob for countless years, he finally got to enjoy being on top.

……

I looked at the complex forest terrain before ordering decisively, "Alright, everyone, get off your mount and summon them after we’re halfway up the hills. Work with our comrades who are already on top of the hill and prepare for the hunt!"

Everyone laughed and carried my order as instructed. Then, we started climbing up the hills.

As I was running along a mountain path, I suddenly saw a woman clothed in leather armor smiling at me from an elevated position. "Hi, Lu Chen!"
