Sword Among Us Chapter 740 - Tear Down the Walls! Deep Roar!

Chapter 740: Tear Down the Walls! Deep Roar!

Chen Ping was a rather inconspicuous and honest person among the core members of Cla.s.s One Hall. However, ever since his Arm Strength reached two hundred, he was placed in an important position by Dream Clouds. Not only did she arrange him to become a branch master, she even a.s.signed a group of people with good physiques to him.

No one knew what Dream Clouds thought, because she had actually asked him to train up a group of hall members with high Arm Strength. He formed a Hercules Branch that everyone envied. All those who entered it could get a stable pay every month, and their treatment was among the best in Cla.s.s One Hall!

However, they could not practice any light weapons like swords and sabers. Aside from fist techniques, they could only practice wielding heavy axes, longspears, hammers, and some of the rarer heavy weaponry.

What was even more special was that the people who entered Hercules Branch had strong builds and were very terrifying. When they held heavy weapons, the presence they released gave off a great wave of pressure.

When Chen Ping with his men arrived at the foot of the wall, he have an order, and everyone brought out their weapons!

Large hammers! Broadaxes! Chain hammers!

Each one was more terrifying and domineering than the last!

They looked like frightening beasts that had appeared outside Mu Clan’s branch. When they joined the battlefield, there was no way they would not attract everyone’s attention.

With highly expectant gazes, Towering Palace stared at the built men with great strength. They hoped that they would do something as outstanding as their builds and break the d.a.m.n stalemate.

But what caused them to feel gloomy was that when they entered the battlefield, they just stood still under the wall in a single line and did not show any intention to take a step forward.

“What is Cla.s.s One Hall doing?”

Clear Music had also noticed them. When they approached the wall, the offense of Cla.s.s One Hall had clearly become much weaker.

Many of them just jumped onto the walls to attract the archers’ attention and then were thrown down while covered in injuries.

The people from Cla.s.s One Hall stopped far away from the men with great strength, and their advance slowed down.

“Palace master, we’ve got word from Cla.s.s One Hall.”

“Speak.”

“Palace Master Music, our vice hall master said that we can’t have Mu Clan deplete our strength anymore and stall for time. We’ve prepared a group of sacrificial p.a.w.ns, and we’ll need you to work with us to break into Mu Clan.”

“Oh?”

Clear Music was interested.

She could guess that the sacrificial p.a.w.ns Cla.s.s One Hall mentioned were the group of men with great strength and great builds. “Tell me, how do you want us to work with you?”

“Once the wall shatters, we need your palace to fight at full strength and send Mu Clan’s formation into chaos. Have those men in black attack as well.”

“You’re tearing down the wall?” Clear Music’s heart trembled.

She was truly shocked by Cla.s.s One Hall’s wild strategies. It was no wonder why Dream Clouds had nearly become the master of the Chinese server during the early stages of the game. She had trump cards and methods that other people did not have.

But she soon realized the danger of this move.

Clear Music, however, did not have any reason to reject it, and she agreed without hesitation. Even if the plan worked, Cla.s.s One Hall’s group of sacrificial p.a.w.ns would most likely end up all dead, and she could not ask for more.

“The signal is here.”

Chen Ping leaned against the wall with his brothers until they saw b.a.l.l.s of dazzling fireworks rise from Cla.s.s One Hall’s camp.

“Attack!”

The men with strong builds looked at each other before they moved. They retreated six and a half feet away from the wall while also standing a certain distance away from each other.

Chen Ping held a black greataxe that was more than one hundred and ten pounds. His gaze was stern, and once he took two slow steps backwards, he activated his qi realm. His qi increased by leaps and bounds, and he was just like a huge bear with all its fur raised after it fixed its eyes on its prey!

His qi surge into his arms, and a faint, fiendish aura rose around his greataxe.

“HAH!”

With a low roar, he suddenly twisted his waist and took half a step forward. The greataxe drew a terrifying black shadow in the air before it violently rammed into the branch’s walls!

Boom!

A loud sound rose and fell at that moment.

The wall let out a great bang that caused people to s.h.i.+ver. Even the ground seemed to have started trembling.

Not only were the people from Mu Clan shocked, even the people in the battlefield were surprised by the sudden deafening sound.

Quite a number of holes appeared on the wall!

Terrifying gashes and axe marks that were about two feet deep made the wall look badly damaged.

Even though the wall remained as st.u.r.dy as ever, the people inside and outside could sense countless great forces pounding against the wall, and they did not doubt that after a few rounds of attacks, the wall to the courtyard would fall with a bang.

Just when the group prepared for the second wave of attacks, a sharp whistle from high above Mu Clan tore through the air and violently shot into one of the men who had his hammer held high.

Thud!

The arm that seemed to contain endless strength was torn off.

The man only felt strong pain ripping through his body. Then, his right hand turned cold. Immediately after, the remaining force from the blow threw him off his feet.

Thud!

His arm, along with the hammer and a small portion of his shoulder, fell into the crowd.

The man himself became a blurry mess.

He was instantly killed.

After the first wave of attacks, the Hercules Circle that Chen Ping led had its first casualty.

But the death did not stop the people from Hercules Circle.

The heavy weapons violently hit the wall again!

Among neverending booms, the wall shuddered!

*****

Silver Wolf put down the longbow. He, along with his group, had incredibly solemn expressions on their faces.

They did not expect Cla.s.s One Hall to think of such a method that would sacrifice their own people!

It had to be known that when it came to the number of people, Mu Clan was at an absolute disadvantage. Their only key to victory was the defense formation they had set up behind the wall.

The wall was also a line of defense that was very difficult for Cla.s.s One Hall and Towering Palace to cross.

Once it was torn down, the people from Mu Clan would be exposed to the arrows from Cla.s.s One Hall and Towering Palace and would have nowhere to hide from them. No matter how good the people from Mu Clan were, it would be a matter of time before they faced enemies who came at them like a tidal wave.

However, normal arrows were not able to strike down the people at the foot of the wall, unless all of them had Silver Wolf’s weapon and strength!

And it was not like the people from Mu Clan could go out to fight against Cla.s.s One Hall and Towering Palace.

If they did that, they would die even faster!

The Mu Clan elites could already tell just how sinister was Cla.s.s One Hall’s tactic, and they instantly became much grimmer than before.

The fierce cras.h.i.+ng sounds did not stop traveling into their ears.

The b.u.mps on the walls gradually became more prominent.

“Why don’t I give it a try?” Wind Chimes placed her hands on her zither.

“No need.” Silver Wolf had a cold and callous expression on his face. “Even if you s.h.i.+ft your zither notes to that place, it will just slow them down. You won’t be able to kill them all, and it will give them a chance to exploit. By then, it will be even more difficult for us to progress forward!”

He stopped talking for a moment and gave an order without hesitation.

“Archers, get ready! Once a gap appears in the wall, immediately gather all firepower together and kill them!

“Others, get ready for a tough battle!

“Understood!”

The Mu Clan members could clearly sense the tense atmosphere around them had become much stronger, and the situation was turning downhill for them rapidly!
