Chapter 509: Send you a pole
Night, went online.
“Shua!”
A white light flashed across and my character info was read. I appeared in the With You camp and I entered White Cloak state right away. A Pioneer Cavalry passed through me and knocked into the shields formed by Haotian. The right side of us, Lin Xi appeared. She pulled out her sword and started to defend.
It seemed like the Pioneer Army’s attack got weaker and weaker. Right in front of us spawned a bunch of scattered cavalries. Those that charged were all focused on.
“Is it going to end?”
Moonlight Firely stood on the frontlines and looked into the distance, “If it ends like this then the Pioneer Army is just too weak?”
“Definitely not.”
I shook my head and smiled, “The Pioneer Army was much stronger previously. We are at their doorstep so if you tell me that this is all they have, I don’t believe you.”
“Right!”
Lin Xi nodded, “There will definitely be a follow up.”
As expected, seemingly like they were proving her words, a golden eagle appeared and it spread its shiny golden wings. On its back was a cavalry with soft armor that held a golden scroll. He shouted towards the generals that were commanding, “Orders from his majesty, Zhenyang Duke, General Wang Shuang receive the orders!”
In the crowd, Guan Yang and Wang Shuang jumped off their horses and knelt on the ground.
“His Majesty orders the Flame Army, Silver Frost Army to push forwards. The goal is Beiliang Province’s capital Beiliang City. His Majesty will lead the Guards Army and Fanshu Army along with the Forest Guardian Dragonriders to assist. Please be careful and not fall into Valen’s trap.”
“Yes!”
Guan Yang walked forwards and respectfully accepted the order, “General Wang Shuang, this is urgent, the scouts have found out about the land and the enemy situation, let’s head out!”
“Yes Duke!”
……
In the next moment, war drums sounded and the Silver Frost Army’s vanguard camp, left and right armies and main force started to move. They officially began the battle to conquer Pioneer Forest.
“The NPC army is attacking.”
Haotian looked into the distance and his eyes were filled with flames of battle, “Let’s prepare to move. Tsk tsk it has been a long time since we fought a war, I am actually looking forward to it!”
Light Lantern laughed, “Don’t be too excited, such a battle is one where we can get easily ambushed. Moreover, the NPCs here are so smart, we should be careful and not get played.”
“En.”
I walked to Lin Xi’s side and said, “Give the order. We should follow Silver Frost Army, not only will we have someone to take care of us, we can also get some points in advance. That will help our guild rankings.”
“Okay–”
Lin Xi turned around and said in the guild channel, “All With You members, split into the teams and follow Silver Frost Army. Light Lantern, send the mounts to scout. We must not fall into their ambush.”
“Okay, I will make arrangements.”
A few seconds later, dozens of With You cavalry dashed forwards to be our eyes. I held my dagger and stood beside Lin Xi. The With You formation needed me, the Assassins could help to do the intel.
……
“Head out!”
After Light Lantern ordered, With You pushed forwards. Lin Xi led Cal and Light Lantern to walk at the front. I stood behind to hold up the line to protect Shen Mingxuan, Gu Ruyi and Light Frost. Just like that, even if something charged out of the forest, I could help right away.
In the distance, one could hear the sound of horse hooves. The Silver Frost Army’s cavalry had moved out. They rode a white horse and they were covered in silver armor. From afar they looked like a patch of silver. They were probably the most handsome soldier type in Donghang Province. They formed a stark contrast with Flame Army’s flame cavalries. At this moment, the Silver Frost Army was the vanguard of the entire human camp. They sliced at the monsters along the way to help open a path.
Further away, Elements and Limitless pushed forwards. On our left was Vanguard and Prague which also moved forwards with other guilds. Behind us were the NPC cannons, cannonballs and grain that were protected by the Flame Army. The entire battlefield was shifting from Yundian Mountain to the Pioneer Forest.
“Sha sha…”
Along with the sounds of leaves rustling, With You entered Pioneer Forest. I picked up a really thick stench and that made me frown. This smell should be from the undead soldiers of the Pioneer Army. Nearby there should be a nest similar to a tomb.
Not far away was a messenger troop that stopped in front of Silver Frost Army’s commander Wang Shuang. He said solemnly, “Sir, there is a Pioneer Army nest ahead and many eggs of the Pioneer Ghouls. The soldiers don’t dare to make a move, please give an order.”
“Burn them all!”
“Yes!”
Further ahead was a basin that appeared in front of us that was covered in animal and human corpses. A stench filled the sky. Below them were many sacs twitching. They were like huts. From the surface, one could see the outline of Pioneer Ghouls.
“Scoff!”
This novel is available on Hosted Novel.
Wang Shuang rode his horse forwards and saw everything, “Damn Pioneer Army, they are just the synonym of evil. They are actually using human bones as fertilizer for the undead. These ghouls shouldn’t be born at all. Men, pour oil on them and burn them all!”
“Yes!”
Silver Frost Army troops held the oil and poured them on the sacs. Then they tossed a torch which caused many of the undeveloped Pioneer Ghouls to cry out in pain. Many of them even ran out of the sac but they were covered in flames. After a few steps, they laid on the ground and died of pain.
In a blink of an eye, black pillars shot up from the canyon that spread tens of miles. Who knew how many Pioneer Ghouls were burnt into ash.
“Wang Shuang!”
A familiar shout spread from the sky, “You dare to kill my children. You wait and see, I will make you regret what you did!”
“It is Pioneer Valen!”
A deputy general dashed across with his sword, “Inscription Arrow Formation, protect sir!”
“Yes!”
All of a sudden, thousands of archers gathered around Wang Shuang. They pulled their bows and on them were many arrows that looked simple but were covered in inscription light. This was the legendary inscription arrow. This thing was really strong and it was used to deal with high level bosses. Valen was probably afraid of this. If not, with Valen’s temper, he would have charged down to kill Wang Shuang. After all, in terms of skills, a hundred Wang Shuangs wouldn’t be enough to deal with Valen.
“Scoff scoff–”
Light Lantern looked into the distance and said, “Inscription Arrow Formation sounds really strong. Last time when White Cloak Minister and Zhenyang Duke were about to die from Valen’s attacks, these NPCs didn’t use this. What is the explanation for them using it now? Is it a bug in game?”
“I am not sure.”
Light Frost looked into the distance and smiled, “Maybe the higher ups in the human race recently developed it. Previously it might be too weak so they didn’t use it.”
“That is not possible.”
Light Lantern said, “How long has it been between the two events, at most, it has been a month. It is not possible for the inscription arrow to get so much stronger. Research is basically step by step. Look at our country’s airplanes, WS15 took so long to arrive. Inscription arrow development speed… It doesn’t exist in a month.”
“Oh…”
Light Frost smiled and said, “Brother, during your next birthday should I give you a pole?”
“Why my beautiful sister?”
“A pole for someone like you is perfect–”
“Damn!”
“Hahaha–”
……
We passed through the canyon of the burning Pioneer Ghouls and after twenty minutes, we were outside Pioneer Forest. Ahead of us was a huge bush forest.
“Stop!”
A general held up his blade and sniffed, “Damn, I smell something dangerous. Archers fire a wave of arrows ahead!”
“Yes sir!”
A deputy general raised his hand and thousands of archers aimed forwards. “Pu pu pu”, many arrows were fired. The silent bush forest had blood splattering. At the densest region of the arrow fire was a red monster. His body twitched and shivered and in a blink of an eye, it was dead.
Lin Xi and I were familiar with this and we said at the same time, “Flame Boar!?”
Right, the thing rolling on the ground was the Flame Boar!”
“I didn’t expect it…”
Shen Mingxuan opened her mouth slightly, “Such a dumb species will join the Pioneer Army. Valen is really–”
“He really is stupid.”
I pointed forwards, “People shot them and their ambush is exposed and the rest of the boars are still hiding.”
Everyone laughed, “Really…”
