Chapter 526 - Killing Amidst the Chaos (1/2)
Chapter 526 - Killing Amidst the Chaos
The Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry pressed forward, but after cras.h.i.+ng into several ice walls, their momentum finally slowed. Happy’s Thief team closed in. They didn’t ask for any single target or look for any route. They simply placed a trap wherever there was free s.p.a.ce. Everyone put down as many traps as possible and then immediately ran far far away.
Peng peng peng peng!
Moments later, the sounds of ice walls breaking stopped. The charge made by the Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry had been stopped. Numerous ice walls still stood. Needless to say, after the cavalry was forced to a halt, the leading Aquamarine Knight brandished his sword and shattered the ice wall in front of him with a swing.
Advance! The Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry continued to head towards their intended target. Several ice walls were quickly smashed apart by them. The ice fragments sprinkled onto the ground. The scene didn’t look like it belonged here in the desert. However, no one had any time to appreciate it. Everyone could already see the light glinting from the Aquamarine Knight’s sword.
At this moment, the mage team fell back. The Knights moved forward to be the defensive line.
“s.h.i.+elds up!” Lord Grim ordered. The Knights in front lifted their s.h.i.+elds and hid behind them.
“Cleric, get ready!” When Lord Grim gave his second order, the Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry arrived. Except this time, the short distance between them wasn’t enough for a full charge. The Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry strided over and raised their swords.
Dong dong dong dong!!
The sounds of metal colliding with metal repeatedly rang. The Knights didn’t care if there were even enemies in front of them. All of them raised their s.h.i.+elds in front of them at a 45 degree angle. The Knights who were attacked could clearly feel their s.h.i.+elds jumping back and forth. Blocking the fierce attacks affected their control over their characters. Their health also fell like waterfalls with every attack. In this type of situation, even if there were Clerics healing, the Knights were already worried if they would be able to properly block the second attack.
Fortunately, Lord Grim didn’t have them take the second attack. When the Aquamarine Knight and his cavalry made their first swing, Lord Grim gave another order.
“Ninjas!! Underground Tunneling Technique, Body Bind Technique!”
While the Aquamarine Knight had been breaking through the ice walls, the Ninjas had hidden themselves under the sand. Now, they popped out of the sand into the air and threw the rope attached to their ninja blades towards the knights on horseback.
They didn’t have any targets in mind and simply aimed at the most convenient target. There might be slip ups or repeats, but those weren’t important. It was more important they took the opportunity in front of them.
Ye Xiu knew very well how unskilled his Happy players were, so he didn’t set up anything complicated or difficult.
The mages cast ice walls, easy.
The thieves set traps, simple.
The knights block an attack, no need to talk about it.
The Ninjas had a slightly more difficult task because their Underground Tunneling Technique and Body Bind Technique were combos. Both of them had to be chained correctly and the Body Bind Technique had to used in the air. It was an easy task for any Heavenly Domain player, but it wasn’t so easy for these tenth server noobs. As a result, Ye Xiu didn’t have any requirements. All they needed to do was. .h.i.t whatever target they could and not care about anyone else.
A few of the attacks might be repeated, but a single person’s mistake could be made up by someone else. A few attacks might miss, but even more mistakes would occur with anything more complicated anyways.
The thirty or so Ninjas launched their attacks against the nineteen Aquamarine Knight cavalry. It was nearly a two to one ratio. But because Ye Xiu didn’t put any requirements for them, there might be a target hit by several attacks or there might be a target hit by none.
In any case, people went up and horses flipped.
The majority of the knights. .h.i.t by the Tunnel Bind combo were dismounted. Some of them were hit but didn’t fall and the Ninjas ended up on the horses.
This wasn’t strange. After all, the Aquamarine Knight was a wild boss. All of his underlings were powerful elite monsters and had strong resistance towards many attacks. If the player didn’t aim correctly, the intended effect might not occur.
“Battle Mages, Circle Swing!”
At this moment, another wave of attacks flew out. The Battle Mage team pincered from the left and right. After the Ninjas used the Tunnel Bind combo, the Battle Mages immediately stabbed at the knights who hadn’t fallen off their horses.
Some of their attacks might miss or might be late, but in the end, the remaining mounted knights were thrown off. One wave after another wave came.
Moreover, when these knights fell, there was even a small shockwave, knocking the ones lifted off by the Ninjas back down to the ground.
“Witches, Level 50 and up use Doll Shururu, under Level 50 use Lava Flask, Ice Rain!”
“Launchers, Stinger!”
“Spitfire, Incendiary Device!”
“Mechanics, Machine Drop!”
