Hu Die Lan

Chapter 89 The Neglected Character

"Hurry up and gather! Quickly!" Yun Zhongmu continued to yell at the people around him. They were out in the wild and clearly unable to reach the warrior camp in time for the upcoming battle.

"We can't wait any longer!" Jian Gui shouted. "The faster ones, return to the city first to support the warrior camp."

The highly mobile team, composed of thieves and archers, quickly headed towards the city. Jian Gui calculated in his mind that the opponents were a 30-man detachment. Even if he rescued the Qian Chen members in the archer training ground without taking any damage, they would only have 60-70 people. If their forces could arrive in time, their numerical advantage would be very obvious.

"We must make it!" Jian Gui thought to himself. Qian Chen's journey from the archer training ground, through the center of Moonlit Night City, to the warrior camp on the opposite side was not short. For a team with such a numerical disadvantage, priests were undoubtedly crucial. He assumed they wouldn't dare to leave the priests behind and move quickly.

"Priests... damn!" Jian Gui suddenly realized he had made a critical mistake: the detachment blocking the priests' resurrection point shouldn't have retreated so quickly. Perhaps the opponents would want to rescue the priests first. Although a 30-man detachment couldn't resist, it could at least force the opponents to detour, which would have been a good way to buy time. But now, with the 30 men gone, the priests had undoubtedly joined their main force in the city center.

It was too late to think about it now. But, a team with priests shouldn't be moving too fast! This was Jian Gui's last hope.

At this moment, good news arrived. Yun Zhongmu's friend in the city center saw the Qian Chen team gathering. Their final direction was not the warrior camp at four o'clock, but towards the northeast street.

Northeast, one o'clock direction, the Mage Academy?

So it was here after all! Jian Gui thought. The most threatening in a team melee was of course a mage with area-of-effect damage. It seemed Qian Chen had gone around in a circle, still wanting to give their team firepower first.

Han Jia Gongzi was greatly surprised to hear this news. "Their commander is not simple!"

"?" Jian Gui was rushing back while communicating with Han Jia Gongzi, sending extremely brief messages.

"If they chose to attack the warrior camp, their distance from the archer training ground at nine o'clock to the warrior camp at four o'clock would be much shorter than yours. However, that detachment consists mainly of mages with high area damage. Even with the archer advantage, they would still have to pay a price to take it down. More critically, the sacrificed mages will be resurrected in the Mage Academy. By the time they attack this place again, our people will have completed a large gathering here. However, the Mage Academy is under our control. That is to say, in this team melee, the opponent has no mages! Numerical disadvantage, no mages, is it possible to win the team fight?" Han Jia Gongzi analyzed. "So I said, their commander is not simple, and their vision is not limited to the immediate situation."

"Seizing the Mage Academy is the ultimate key to this battle!" Han Jia Gongzi finally said. "Half of Qian Chen's members have dropped three levels. Even if the numbers are equal on both sides, the strength is already even. Whoever has more mages will win the victory."

"Then how was the archer training ground captured by 30 people in one minute?" Jian Gui couldn't help but stop and reply.

"This, I'm not sure yet. In short, hurry to the Mage Academy to build a defense line! By the way, their first step was to capture the archer training ground in order to have archers block the Mage Academy... Damn, this guy's arrangements are seamless, who is he?" Han Jia Gongzi wondered. "Mang Mang de Mang Mang? I've already been in contact with this woman! Although she also has some skills, she is definitely not this far-sighted."

"Alright, I've arrived at the Mage Academy." Jian Gui breathed a sigh of relief. The Mage Academy was at one o'clock, not far from the north gate and the Thieves' Guild. The opponent's unexpected change of route made it easier for Jian Gui and the others to get there. At this time, the two groups of people had arrived outside the Mage Academy, waiting in battle formation.

"I think something is wrong. If this person dares to attack the Mage Academy, they must be confident in dealing with your defenses. There must be some information we don't know yet." Han Jia Gongzi became anxious in the tavern.

"No time to think, they're already here." Jian Gui closed the chat window. In the distance, the figures of the Qian Chen guild members were already moving on the street. However, their movement speed was a little too fast.

"All archers?" Jian Gui suddenly froze, exchanging glances with Yun Zhongmu.

What arrived from Qian Chen was actually just a mere team of 30 or so people, and the members were all archers.

"Thieves, stealth, circle around behind them; archers, snipe!" Jian Gui casually commanded. Most of the opponents were archers who had already lost levels, losing the level 30 skill, Snipe. Compared to Jian Gui's archers, their range was reduced. This team of 30 or so archers couldn't pose any threat at all.

"What the hell are they doing!" Jian Gui was at a loss.

"There must be another group of people hiding somewhere! Go find them!" Yun Zhongmu sent a few thieves out to scout.

The Qian Chen archer team didn't directly confront Jian Gui and the others. After shooting a few arrows, they began to skirmish, running extremely fast, obviously not wanting the thieves to get close.

"Delaying time?" Jian Gui couldn't help but mutter to himself as he watched this scene.

Duan Yun, one of the ten guild leaders of "Defeat the Qian Chen Legion," was not as nervous as Jian Gui and Yun Zhongmu. He was the captain in charge of guarding the Knight Camp. The knight, a balanced class, was not one that could obviously affect the battle situation. Duan Yun believed that no matter which point the opponent wanted to attack, they would not choose the Knight Camp, which was the most meaningless choice.

But at this moment, he heard footsteps.

From the alley on the side of the street, there were chaotic and heavy footsteps. Soon, a team of about 30 people rushed out of the alley, rushing straight towards the guards led by Duan Yun.

No spells, no arrows, no invisible thieves.

This was actually a team composed purely of warriors.

Just as Duan Yun was feeling surprised, he suddenly saw a dazzling halo rising from the opponent's team. The halo rose from the top of their heads, then spread around, and then fell, and the entire team of 30 people was bathed in this halo.

Then, the whole team seemed to have stepped on the accelerator, and their running speed suddenly increased by a level.

Duan Yun had been in Parallel World for so long, but he had never seen warriors reach such a running speed. The opponents withstood the arrows and spells released by Duan Yun's team, and forcibly rushed to them. At the same time, the knights in the Knight Camp also stepped out of the resurrection point, applying various blessing auras to themselves, and threw themselves into the battle.

Jian Gui and the others had always had a misunderstanding: the opponent was not just a 30-person team. When attacking the resurrection point, the Qian Chen players in the resurrection point would also rush out to give them assistance at any time. To be precise, this was a team of more than 60 people.

In the close combat between the two teams, the members of Duan Yun's team were surprised to find that these guys shrouded in the halo were not only fast, but also had high attack and defense, and even had thick blood. There was no doubt that the halo was a skill, a skill that improved various attributes, and even more terrifying, it was a group skill.

There was already a gap in strength between them and Qian Chen's members. At this time, the opponent had such a skill to improve their strength, and Duan Yun's team seemed very vulnerable. White light flashed everywhere, and the 50-person team was annihilated in an instant.

Duan Yun persisted until the end. In the last moment before he fell, he saw a sword, a sword in the center of the halo, held high, emitting a golden light.

The person holding this sword—Yinyue, the guild leader of Qian Chen.

The dignified guild leader of Qian Chen had become a neglected character. All because he was given a wanted mission by Gu Fei and sent to the dungeon. During the imprisonment, all chat windows were forbidden. Waiting, all he could do was sit and wait.

Eight hours were definitely not pleasant, but Yinyue finally survived. When he walked out of the dungeon, he was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He saw 30 members of his guild running out in a panic.

Yinyue quickly stopped this team. At the same time, the re-opened guild chat window was also frantically swiping information. It was when Jian Gui and others were leading teams to launch strong attacks on Qian Chen in various parts of Moonlit Night City.

Yinyue didn't know what had happened in the past eight hours. After asking the people around him, he immediately realized that this was a premeditated trap - dividing the powerful Qian Chen guild into fragmented teams, and defeating them one by one.

The ninth team in the dungeon would obviously also be the target of the attack, perhaps only because it was far away, or because the opponent didn't have enough manpower, that they hadn't taken care of it for the time being.

Yinyue decisively led the ninth team out of the dungeon entrance, but did not reinforce any battlefield, and quietly slipped out of the west gate of Moonlit Night City.

Afterwards, he contacted Mang Mang de Mang Mang and others who were rushing to rescue from the north of the city, and allocated manpower to form a team mainly composed of warriors, supplemented by a few priests.

What Yinyue wanted was to leverage the advantage of the weapon in his hand.

The Sword of the King.

Additional skill: Battle Formation "King's Order". Effect: All attributes of team members within the skill range +15%, mana consumption per second is 4% of the upper limit. Skill cooldown is 10 minutes.

In team melees, this would be a trump card skill that could play a decisive role.
