The sky was still the same, and the wind had always been blowing here, never stopped. But the mist outside the formation core was never blown away. Merely, today was a special exception.
“Report! The formation flag has been destroyed.” A soldier of Shi Hao announced. Soon, the perpetual mist around Dragon Spring Mountain gradually disappeared. Looking around, the scenery of Dragon Spring Mountain was indeed very pleasant. Crystal-clear water flowing around the green hills, red autumnal leaves playing with yellow flowers.
Merely, behind such pleasant scenery, it was unknown how many players had fallen here. Thinking about this made people somewhat overwhelmed by this scenery.
Shi Hao sighed and said: “Let’s go! Without this formation, the mist will not condense like before. In addition, those confused people will also recover within a day.”
Shi Hao’s troops advanced towards the depth of the Dragon Spring Mountain. They were already not far from their target stronghold.
Looking from the distance, they could even see the vague shadow of that stronghold. And within that stronghold’s secret room, the yellow-robed man suddenly smiled.
The yellow-robed man asked: “You, what do you think about that person?”
That white-robed man, Wu Guang, replied: “Even after taking my three moves, he remained unscathed.”
The yellow-robed man laughed, and Wu Guang also laughed. Merely, no one knew why they were laughing. Perhaps, this had something to do with Wu Guang’s skill, but it was unknown.
The sky was getting dark. However, everyone within Dragon Spring Mountain, including Shi Hao’s group, was still rushing forward hastily. No one wanted to be left behind as their target stronghold seemed to be right before their eyes.
In fact, at this moment, someone had already arrived in front of the target stronghold.
“Emperor Qin! We are here.” A character who looked like a General said. At a glance, anyone could tell that he was a historical NPC. Merely, who he was couldn’t be determined at this moment. But his profession should be commander. Because he managed all soldiers under Qin Zheng. He was under the direct command of Qin Zheng alone. His status was not inferior to Liu Xiao.
“Very good!” Qin Zheng laughed and said: “Do you know what this is? This is Heaven helping me. After we entered the mountain, we were trapped in the mist. If it were not for Heaven taking care of me, why would the mist disperse on its own and let us easily reach the target like this? I’m God’s favorite, I’m the man of destiny.”
“Yes! We understand.” Everyone shouted loudly and cheered: “Emperor Qin, become Emperor by the Mandate of Heaven, truly is the God’s favorite, a dragon among men, no one can reach him.”
“Very good! General Xin, you will take the command for me and quickly take down those bandits.” Qin Zheng said, turned around, looked for an exquisite place and sat down, admiring the beautiful scenery here while waiting for Xin Wenli’s good news. After all, Xin Wenli, however, was an A grade historical NPC he recruited paying an enormous price. His strength was extraordinary.
Speaking a bit about it, in order to recruit Xin Wenli, Qin Zheng needed to purchase crucial information (hidden recruitment method) from that greedy ghost, Red Leaf Bai Xiaosheng. But since he had already smashed all his capital in the game, it was hard for him to get money temporarily, and he just happened to need 50 million RMB for the information. Therefore, he sold that ridiculous weapon, Big Prank Hammer. In his eyes, this weapon was just garbage that insulted his status. So, he never used it. As for who purchased that Big Prank Hammer, he didn’t care about it.
Xin Wenli was the eleventh-ranked general of Sui and Tang Dynasties, and his strength was naturally worthy enough of the A grade title. And his profession was commander just as said before. His skill was called Fiery Thunder Formation!
[Skill Name: Fiery Thunder Formation] [Skill Grade: historical NPC’s skill, no grade classification] [Skill Type: Passive, no consumption] [Weapon Restriction: None] [Current Rank and Mastery: Level 2, 380/400] [Skill Effect: The soldiers (players or regular NPCs) can set up a formation, and the enemy soldiers that trapped within the formation will receive 2 points damage per second, ignoring the defense; this formation cannot encircle the stronghold]One had to say, this Fiery Thunder Formation was definitely a sharp weapon and an ambush artifact in a war. Once this formation was set up and the enemies were lured into it, it would be very difficult to get out.
“All soldiers, prepare, make formation (Fiery Thunder Formation)!” Under the command of Xin Wenli, Fiery Thunder Formation was basically set up completely. This was obviously the result of effective and well training.
“Lord Xiao, may I trouble you to go and lure the enemies.” Xin Wenli looked at Liu Xiao and Liu Xiao nodded his head. it was not the first time they cooperated like this. Therefore, there was nothing more to say.
Liu Xiao led a knight squad and rushed forward. Upon a careful look, in the dim light of night, there was just a narrow old bridge in the front. Only a few people could pass through it, side by side. And under this old bridge, there was a torrential river. If anyone fell, then it would be difficult to survive.
However, this was not enough to stop Liu Xiao. Liu Xiao took the lead and charged forward courageously. However, in the next moment, he suddenly noticed one thing. He was already alone!
“What’s going on?” Liu Xiao stood on the old bridge and roared angrily while looking around. He then saw a white-robed man slowly walking over, and he yelled: “What did you do? Where are my men?”
That white-robed man was none other than Wu Guang! However, who was Wu Guang? Wu Guang was a hero who rose in rebellion together with Chen Sheng. In <<Kingdom>>, Wu Guang was an A grade historical NPC with knight profession.
Wu Guang replied coldly: “I did nothing. They are outside and you are inside they can’t see you and you can’t see them. And I just want to ask you a thing. You! Why did you come to Dragon Spring Mountain to fight?”
“Humph!” Liu Xiao was brave and fearless, but he was a bit short-tempered. He roared: “Ignorant scoundrels, deliberately mystifying things, I made this special trip to take your life!”
Liu Xiao rushed forward to kill. He was riding a Blood Sweat Horse, which was an epic-grade item with +10 agility (agility and other attributes are different. It will not rise along with the rise in level, it relies on other bonuses). His speed was so fast that it was difficult to clearly see his traces.
However, Wu Guang was a swordsman! Cold-blooded swordsman! His sword could easily slay all innocent people in this world. His skill was called Tyrannical Sword Slash!
[Skill Name: Tyrannical Sword Slash] [Skill Grade: historical NPC’s skill, no grade classification] [Skill Type: Passive, no consumption] [Weapon Restriction: Sword] [Current Rank and Mastery: Level 2, 380/400] [Skill Effect: Trail through words, when the system judges that the opponent was ‘tyrannical’, the sword would be buffed with penetration power, with a 60% chance to ignore the defense of the tyrannical people; P.S.: the ignore defense attack can only be dodged, not blocked. Forcibly trying to block would only get directly penetrated!]The sword of Wu Guang was already emitting a faint light, which was the sign of successful judgment of ‘tyrannical’. Wu Guang coldly smiled and swung his sword. Liu Xiao reacted very quickly, holding his spear horizontally to block.
Upon a closer look, Wu Guang’s attack was just 90 points, of which 80 points were his own stats and just 10 points came from the tier one no bonus iron sword. However, Liu Xiao’s HP was just 48 points. Although Liu Xiao relied on his equipment to reach 88 points in defense, he still couldn’t resist Wu Guang. That was a sword move of Tyrannical Sword Slash.
Liu Xiao was defeated! His HP reduced to zero and he directly fell into the rapid river below and disappeared in the Dragon Spring Mountain.
