VRMMO: The Unrivaled Chapter 1049– Final Gamble

As if sensing our killing intent, Breeze and Rain abruptly raised his arm. The remaining tens of thousands Cyan Beast players immediately backed away as if they were planning to leave Purple Grape City. The backliners such as the mages, priests and archers left first while the cavalry covered for them. Even at their current state, Cyan Beast's players were able to carry out an orderly retreat. Any guild who managed to become the number one guild of their server must never be underestimated.

"They think they can escape?"

Gui Guzi pulled out his Spear of the Knight G.o.d from the ground and said, "Let's give chase, Boss Broken Halberd! It's a risk to return to Purple Grape City while Breeze and Rain is still lurking around!"

I nodded in agreement. "Everyone, charge the enemy with everything you've got!

Everyone nodded in unison. The next moment, our remaining 100000+ players ran toward Cyan Beast at top speed and engaged their cavalry in no time. They were never going to outrun us because their backliners weren't mounted.

……

Swhoosh swhoos.h.!.+

I dropped two Icy Cyclone Domains to slow a group of Cyan Beast players. Chaos Moon and Xu Yang immediately charged and killed many of them with their skills. Cyan Beast's players were individually strong, but there was only so much they could do now.

"Tsk!"

Helplessness and resistance flashed across Breeze and Rain's pupils. Then, he abruptly halted in his tracks and rushed toward a certain person, shouting, "Die!"

I cried out in warning, "Xu Yang, watch out!"

Unfortunately, it was still too late. Soul Refining Cage trapped Xu Yang, and three slashes later the guy was gone even with Murong Mingyue's amazing healing. We could only watch as Breeze and Rain deleted Xu Yang from existence.

Shocked, Chaos Moon thrust Barrier Break at Breeze and Rain, but the Agility Warrior dodged it with millimeters to spare and caught her sword handle in the blink of an eye. He was so fast that even Chaos Moon couldn't react in time.

"Ugh…"

She didn't panic though. She twisted her wrist around and forcefully used Rock Crush and Triple Slash. When this girl got feisty, few people could withstand her wrath.

Unfortunately, Breeze and Rain was among these few. A small smile flashed across the Agility Warrior's face as he endured her attacks with a raised arm while circling to the opposite side. Then, he hit her with his Divine General Skill, Soul Capture, lowering all her stats by 70% for 3 seconds!

The light of a crescent moon manifested from Breeze and Rain's blade. It was the Moon Breaking Slash, a powerful skill that ignored 70% of its target's Defense! Chaos Moon would be one-shot if the skill landed!

Swhoos.h.!.+

I just barely knocked the stunned Chaos Moon out of the way in time and tanked the skill with the Dragon G.o.d s.h.i.+eld. A terrible pain wracked across my body as I lost 102884 HP in one go. Not going to give Breeze and Rain any time to react, I turned the Purple Ying Sword in my grip and brought it down on his shoulder!

Chiang!

My first strike was parried, but I spurred the Armored Ice Qilin Horse in the right direction and dished out another two slashes. A shudder later, Universe Break shattered his parry attempt and dealt an incredible amount of damage. His eyes were colored in shock. He clearly wasn't expecting me to maintain a cool enough head and judgement to see through his parries despite all the battles I had gone through so far.

159239!

After his HP dropped below 25%, Breeze and Rain executed a triple-hit Blazing Slash at my Purple Ying Sword and exploited the knockback impact to move away from me. After he caught himself, he turned around and ran away at high speed. He was so fast that he was out of my range before I could do anything else.

Swhoos.h.!.+

Both Gui Guzi and He Yi tried to catch him with their Trapping Nets, but Breeze and Rain easily zigzagged out of the way almost as if he had eyes behind his head.

"We cannot let him escape! Kill him for Xu Yang!" Chaos Moon yelled.

We gave chase as a matter of course.

……

We approached the edge of the map in the blink of an eye, and I saw a low-lying valley up ahead of us. Sensing that something was amiss, I abruptly stopped my group with a raise of my arm, opened the minimap and saw something that chilled me to the bone. The valley was filled with red dots! I hurriedly shouted, "f.u.c.k! It's an ambus.h.!.+ Rearguard, you're the vanguard now! Retreat slowly and don't panic!"

"What's going on?" Lin Yixin asked with widened eyes.

Hot and Sour Noodles also asked, "I see the red dots, but where are the people?"

"I don't know! We need to leave!"

"Okay!"

Unfortunately, the foliages surrounding the valley suddenly moved unnaturally, and the ambushers hiding there emerged into view. They were archers wielding some sort of thunder bow with electrical energy coursing along their bowstrings. The worst part was that there were far, far too many of them.

A player riding a fiery red warhorse and wielding a green broadsword appeared from the center. He laughed loudly as he greeted me, "We meet again, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand! Hahahaha…"

He was none other than the number one player of India and the guild leader of Cyan Beast, G.o.d of War!

The archers behind him didn't belong to Cyan Beast, however. It belonged to the third strongest guild of Cyan Earth City, Flames of War. They were a full guild of archers!

Suddenly, a new group of cavalry appeared from the canyon somewhere to our flanks. Heaven knows how they managed to stay hidden until now, but the important point here was that we were now surrounded from all sides.

"Ready!"

G.o.d of War raised his arm and yelled, "Set! Fire! Kill them all, and victory is ours!

……

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoos.h.!.+

Dragon-shaped lightning ran up the archers' arms before focusing at the tip of their arrowhead. The next moment, the arrows rained down on us like a purple storm! It almost felt like we were judged by the heavens themselves! It was scary!

Hot and Sour Noodles abruptly yelled in recognition, "Oh f.u.c.k, it's the Lightning Archers! They're Flames of War's trump card and the ones who wrecked Candlelight Shadow earlier!"

"You could've said that sooner!" I complained before eyeing the arrows falling toward us. A moment later, I shouted, "Don't panic! Look! The lightning arrows are way slower and steadier than your normal arrows! You can dodge it if you try!"

While saying this, I charged toward the nearest Lightning Archer to me while growling like an animal.

A stunned Stranger of Three Lifetimes called out to me, "What are you doing, Lu Chen? You can't seriously be plotting an a.s.sault in this situation? Ah, you crazy b.a.s.t.a.r.d…"

I replied through gritted teeth, "We still have 100000 players or so, and the enemy is 300000-strong at most! We'll take them all out along with G.o.d of War and Breeze and Rain! No more holding back!"

Lightning arrows fell all around me, but I was able to predict their trajectory and avoid all of them. It didn't matter how much damage they dealt if they couldn't hit me!

I flung the Purple Ying Sword at the archers and killed a dozen or so in an instant. At the same time, my Nation War contribution points shot up like a rocket. Just how many people did these archers kill to accrue so many contribution points? How terrifying!

I summoned my apparition next and made it fire Purple Dragon Howl straight away!

"Roar!"

The purple dragon tore through the enemy archers like paper. The Lightning Archers had ridiculous attack power but low defenses. Since there were few obstacles or bodies here to hide behind, there wasn't much they could do except to die.

……

While I was skilled enough to dodge the rain of lightning arrows, many of the players behind me couldn't claim the same thing. As a result, countless Chinese players were hit by the lightning arrows and stunned for 7 seconds. This was why the Lightning Archers were terrifying. Their attacks had a 70% chance to stun their target!

"Holy s.h.i.+t, 7 seconds!?"

Charging forward with bloodshot eyes, Gui Guzi shouted, "Rush them! There's only 50k Lightning Archers or so! Victory is still ours if they're all dead!"

If they couldn't avoid the lightning arrows, they might as well kill a couple of enemies before they died. Hot and Sour Noodles, Stranger of Three Lifetimes and everyone resolved themselves to death and charged!

……

Pa pa pa!

Purple Wind Chime, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun were all stunned by the lightning arrows. G.o.d of War immediately pointed at them and shouted, "Kill them while the Lightning Archers are covering for you, cavalry! Teach these Chinese players the price of their impudence!"

Although their numbers had dwindled to just tens of thousands, Cyan Earth City was still a formidable force.

G.o.d of War and Breeze and Rain fought side-by-side to each other. The first Famous General they ganged up on was Purple Wind Chime. They killed her in just 5 hits.

Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun courageously traded blows with them, but Breeze and Rain quickly found an opening between his defense and killed him with Soul Capture and a quick combo.

"You and Yun!"

Furious at the death of his good friend, High Fighting Spirits charged forward and unleashed a Xiezhi Howl that threw a dozen or so Cyan Beast players into the air. However, Breeze and Rain dashed toward him faster than he could react before repeating his trick. "Soul Capture!"

High Fighting Spirits' pupils shrank as he retaliated with a horizontal swing. However, he only managed to deal three-digit damage to the Agility Warrior. A 70% decrease in all stats was just too much!

"Hah!"

G.o.d of War brought his broadsword to bear as he rode past High Fighting Spirits, and...

Pss.h.!.+ A shower of blood burst out of the berserker warrior's neck, and he dropped to the ground with a heavy thud. His eyes were wide open when he died. He never even saw who killed him until it was over.

……

Rustle rustle...

Suddenly, Snowy Cathaya's great general, Purple Marquis appeared while skidding across the ground. He pulled his sword out of the soil and shouted with murderous intent, "Absolute Zero!"

Crack crack!

Before G.o.d of War and Breeze and Rain could react, both of them became encased in ice. It was perfect! Absolute Zero had a tiny area of effect, but he still managed to land the skill on the two most critical enemies on this battlefield!
