Chapter 827: Chase, War Achievement

Happy’s actions on his side had actually attracted one person’s attention.

It was the boy who had a black gold longsword, because he was the closest to Happy. He had almost charged into the battlefield at the same time as Happy. However, Happy chose to fight around the general’s guards, where the fight was the most intense, while the boy chose a region that was further away.

That boy also had the intention of avoiding most of the aggression from the Mongolian cavaliers.

After all, the general with the shiny white armor was just too eye-catching, and the place where he stood was the place where the Mongolian cavaliers’ charge was the fiercest, which meant that the danger over there was also the greatest. Hence, for a period of time, the boy did not dare get close to that place.

It was also because of this reason that he did not get the quest to protect the general.

If he knew that successfully completing this quest will get him the same points as killing one hundred Mongolian cavaliers, he might be regretting his decision now.

But when he looked in Happy’s direction by sheer coincidence, he was still shocked.

Even though the battlefield meant that the enemies and allies will be mixed together, causing the place to be very chaotic, the battle over at Happy’s fight was still too intense, and there was also a 10,000-man commander leading thousands of cavaliers in the charge against the general. It was difficult for him to not have his attention seized by that side.

This was especially so when he vaguely saw Happy escorting the general to break out of the encirclement when he made the hatchets instantly killed dozens of Mongolian cavaliers. It left behind such a deep impression in him that he was struck by a hatchet.

‘He’s so good…’

The boy with the black gold longsword did guess that Happy should have activated a quest.

But the general had been surrounded tightly by hundreds of Mongolian cavaliers just now, and the boy did not dare get close, because usually, when a person was surrounded, no matter how good he was, he will be killed in the encirclement.

When he noticed that a top-class elite was in the same battlefield as he was, the man with the black gold longsword instinctively widened the distance between them to prevent them from getting too close. One of it was for his own safety, and the other was because this will make it easier for him to get points.

Happy naturally did not know that he had already been marginalized by someone else. Since he was so focused on getting points, he chased after the people led by the man with the alloy staff with an indomitable spirit. From the moment the charge began, the man lost fewer than five hundred men. Even though he was at the center of the enemy camp, his battalion still contained astonishing strength.

However, if this group of people gathered together and led a charge to break out of the encirclement to meet up with the forces who had been intercepted by the Chinese cavaliers, perhaps a new round of destruction will begin.

Happy did not care about the survival of the Chinese soldiers around him, but he did not wish that the Mongolian cavaliers will meet up and threaten the possibility of him gaining war achievements.

‘I’ll have to kill their commander first.’

Once he fixed his target, Happy quietly jumped over the Chinese soldiers and rushed to the Mongolian cavaliers led by the man with the alloy staff. At that moment, they were still trying to break out of their encirclement.

The man with the alloy staff did not know that he had turned from a hunter to a prey. He sat on his war horse and ordered his subordinates to charge out so that they can meet up with the closest group of cavaliers.

But when an army was in a mess, their speed when they tried to break out of an encirclement cannot hope to compete with Happy when he charged forward at full speed.

In the blink of an eye, he caught up to them.

The few Mongolian cavaliers behind the group became alerted. They turned their heads around and saw Happy. Then, they lifted their bows to fire at him.

Happy did not even bother to dodge. He activated Shifting Stars straight away and sent those arrows back from where they came from.

“URK!”

“AH!”

When the Mongolian cavaliers fired their arrows, there was no way they would think that those arrows will turn around. They widened their eyes in disbelief and as if they agreed to it beforehand, they rolled down from their horses at the same time.

The movements at the back instantly attracted more of the Mongolian cavaliers’ cavaliers. The group of people quickly noticed the Chinese martial artist who caught up to them. Their expressions changed, and dozens of people ordered their horses to turn around and went straight away to launch an arrow formation to charge at Happy.

‘What rotten luck.’ Happy sighed in his heart.

If these people continued to ride behind their group and used their arrows and axes to attack Happy, he could use Shifting Stars and maximize his speed in getting points.

But if they turned around to charge at him, it will be a little troublesome.

‘Oh well.’

When he faced dozens of cavaliers charging at him with an astonishing momentum, Happy did not retreat. He suddenly sped up and vanished from the spot like a phantom.

“Where is he?!”

The Mongolian cavaliers’ alertness was much higher than the common martial artist. At the moment Happy showed up, a few fierce scimitar glares went cutting at him.

But Nine Yang Divine Skill’s spiritual senses was much faster than theirs.

Right when the Mongolian cavaliers who were closest to Happy attacked, they already had a terrifying, bloody hole appear on their foreheads. Their scimitar glares quickly weakened before they vanished in the air.

Happy appeared in a flash near a few corpses.

He flicked his Noble Sword, and around a dozen sword glares scattered around the area like stars. They accurately pierced into the Mongolian cavaliers who tugged at their horses to charge at him.

Happy used these Mongolian cavaliers’ horses served as obstacles for the other Mongolian cavaliers, and he began calmly killing the remaining Mongolian cavaliers.

However, with Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style, no matter how calm he was in killing those Mongolian cavaliers, to others, he still looked like he was attacking as quickly as the wind, and his attacks at his enemies gave off a pressing, suffocating feeling.

In less than half a minute, more than forty people died under Happy’s sword.

More than seven hundred points were added to his original points, and it caused Happy to be a little delighted, because there was one 100-man commander and two 10-man commander among the Mongolian cavaliers.

He grabbed the refined equipment that the 100-man commander dropped on the ground, and when Happy stared at the man with the alloy staff, his gaze instantly turned much more fervent. The 100-man commander dropped a second-echelon grade one masterpiece, and if the man with the alloy staff was a 10,000-man commander, Happy wondered just what sort of equipment he will drop.

He tapped against the ground immediately and chased after the man at lightning speed.

*****

The 10,000-man commanders had always been fierce and tough men, and hence, the man with the alloy staff was also a man like that. He led the charge…

In the end, Happy chased after the man for around ten minutes and continuously killed more than three hundred people before he finally caught up to the man!

But what caused him great gloom was that the man with the alloy staff had successfully gathered together with the other group of cavaliers, the cavalier battalion instantly grew stronger, and now, they numbered nearly one thousand cavaliers!

At the same time, the players who joined the battle also entered the stage from both sides of the cavaliers. Arrows, hidden weapons, and poison attacked the cavaliers nonstop, throwing the already chaotic battlefield even messier.

The man with the alloy staff could be considered unlucky.

When his cavalier battalion was intercepted, the intimidating force from his cavaliers was reduced by half. Later on, he lost hundreds of his men when he tried to kill the general. When both groups of cavaliers joined together, he lost hundreds of cavaliers again. And right now, the near one thousand cavaliers were surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers.

And these people still relied on the lancers to be their walls. They hid behind the lancers in an incredibly crafty manner and attacked from the distance. They did not give the cavaliers a chance to get close to them.

The Mongolian cavaliers fell one after another, and their numbers dwindled.

The Chinese martial artists attacked vigorously, worried that they will be too slow and be unable to seize points. They used their fastest speed to fire their arrows or throw their hidden weapons at the places where there was the greatest number of cavaliers around.

Many people did not know just who managed to kill those Mongolian cavaliers, but they did not care.

After all, they had been fighting blindly for a long time, and they never heard the system notification tell them that they had gained any points.

Only a few ambitious people steadily fought to deal the final blow on the Mongolian cavaliers, because only the people who dealt the final blow could get the points.

When he saw this scene, Happy instantly felt dejected.

Hidden weapons and arrows were fired into the air as densely as a swarm of locusts. Forget about the fact that Happy did not want to reveal his identity in front of too many people, even if he did not mind revealing himself, even he did not have the confidence to rush through this fierce net of firepower.

Fortunately, Joined Finger was also considered a long-distance attack, and its attack was very domineering.

He squeezed his way through the crowd and calmly became one of the shameless army who attacked the Mongolian cavaliers from the distance.

But when he attacked, he paid close attention to the actions from the 10,000-man commander.

After all, not only did that person have highly refined equipment, the points on his person was equivalent to one hundred normal Mongolian cavaliers, and he believed that there were many people in the crowd who also targeted him.
