Chapter 502- Cold North Province

Sponsored Content

   North Region, after the snow land, was a patch of desolate land.

    The mountains in the distance could be seen amongst the clouds.
Between the forests were many abandoned villages.
There was one with collapsed houses and the square of the town was covered in grass.
It looked like no one had lived here for hundreds of years.

    “…”

    I looked around and exclaimed.
This game looked real and it was as if we were walking past an old human home.
Not only me, Lin Xi, Cal, Light Lantern etc looked around and they were impressed.

    “This…”

    An NPC held a spear and rode his horse to pass by us, “Maybe this is Beiliang Province in the past…”

    “Yes.”

    An old mage that wore a white robe followed behind and said, “Sir, that is a small town left from Beiliang Province, the exact name can't be found anywhere now.”

    I frowned, “How have we never heard of Beiliang Province before?”

    The old mage laughed, “Young one, you should be adventurers that just landed on this world.
It is normal that you don't understand, only the old generation remembers this province.
That year, Beiliang Province was not desolate, there were tens of millions of people.
However, after the Pioneer Army came, people had to leave their homes.
Those that couldn't leave…
Ended up as food for the army…”

    The mage's body shook and his eyes were filled with hatred, “This is our home.
Since the day Xuanyuan Empire's troops started to reduce, we had given up this land.
Now that his majesty is personally leading the troops, our empire will rise up again!”

    “Right!”

    The general gritted his teeth, “We are soldiers of the empire so our blood should scatter on the battlefield, we have to take back land for the empire! Who cares about Pioneer Army, who cares about Twilight Army.
If we don't claim the land once more, we won't return!”

    Behind him, a bunch of spear holding cavalries nodded and dashed past us.

    “Tsk tsk…”

    I looked at the dust,

my ears were filled with horse hoof sounds and I smiled, “Seems like the battle should be the most intense one to date right?”

    “Yes.”

    Lin Xi said, “With the emperor leading and with two of the three dukes here, there are over a million troops here.
Half of Xuanyuan Empire's troops are used.
If this battle goes smoothly, we might be able to chase Pioneer Valen out of Pioneer Forest.
If that happens, our map will increase!”

    “Let's hope so but I think that it won't be so smooth…”

    I grinned, “Let's just try our best.”

    “En~~”

    Just like that, we walked alongside With You's Army for around 20 minutes.
Further in front, a mountain range appeared and on it were many peaks that stabbed right into the sky.
They looked like ears of a furnace but these years were right into the cloud ocean.
So this was probably the reason why it was called Yundian Mountain.

    “We are here!”

    Light Lantern smiled, “We have arrived in Yundian Mountain, our next step is to choose a battlefield.
Lin Xi and Lu Li you two choose, I will line up the troops!”

    “En, let's look around.”

    Lin Xi raised her speed and I did too.
After charging up a peak, we saw everything.
The entire Yundian Mountain stretched at least 10 miles and there were many human troops there.
On the waist of the mountain were many shining cannons.
The sides of the mountain were human teams and most of them were lining up.
The few Winter Sun City guilds were on the left side.

    “Should we go to the left?”

    I pointed at the left near the forest, “There is space there in between Dragon Rider Hall and Winds of Battle.
That place is empty so let's fill it up.”

    “En!”

    Lin Xi nodded and raised her sword, “With You enter the battlefield and follow me!”

    Horse hoof sounds could be heard as everyone crossed the mountains with us and entered the battlefield.

    …

    “With You is here!”

    Not far away, Fengxian rode out of the formation and smiled, “This is great, with With You as our neighbor, our guild achievement points wouldn't be a problem.”

    “Oh?”

    I smiled, “Guild Leader Fengxian, there would be guild achievement points?”

    “Right, take a look!”

    Fengxian smiled, “There are two leaderboards, one was solo contribution and the other is the guild.
So each player's contribution will be ranked, this time…
It is time to show the strength of the guild!”

    I nodded and commanded the With You members to enter.
This time we occupied a similar area to Winds of Battle and our frontline was around 500 meters.
This meant that with 2-3 meters for each player, our frontline could contain 200-250 heavy armored players.
This was pretty much all the Sika Deer Cavalries and forming a perfect iron defence line was perfect.

    Behind them were 3 more rows of heavy armored players that would swap to defend and support.
Further behind were the ranged and support players.
As for Assassins, I told Mundane Slaughter and Moonlight Firefly to hunt.
They would leave this place and hunt those solo monsters.
This was a more reasonable way to join this event.

    As for myself, I could be treated as a heavy armored player.
Over 99.9% of players weren't as tanky as I was.
If I used Soul Star Explosion+Darkness Shura, no heavy armored player's survivability would be stronger than mine.
No choice, this was where Shura Assassins were strongest.

    …

    Time passed bit by bit and people quarreled in the distance.
The guilds were in position.
On the right, Winds of Battle were orderly.
On the left, Dragon Rider Hall was a little loose and they looked at us aggressively.
Among them, people like Male Bear, Penghao Ren, Eastern Skill Soldier, Ghostwalker frowned.

    I held my daggers and stepped out.
I stood side by side with Lin Xi and looked at everyone from Dragon Rider Hall.
We were filled with pride and didn't bother about them at all.

    “Sha sha~~~”

    Right at that moment, there were rustling sounds in the forest.
Under Shifang Flame Spiral Eye, as they were too far, I couldn't see through the forest but I could see a blood red veil.
The forest was filled with monsters.
At this moment, time was already 1pm and the battle was about to begin!

    “Be careful!”

    I held my daggers and my body sunk down, “I think this event wouldn't be so simple.
maybe they won't even follow the rules.
We need to be prepared for any changes.”

    “En.”

    Lin Xi held her sword and touched the mane of her horse to calm it down.

    “Yi?”

    Not far away, the heavy armored players of Dragon Rider Hall were curious, “Time is up, why is there no movement at all.
What is going on?”

    “Right!” With You members were curious too.

    “On guard!”

    I looked at everyone, “Raise the shields up! Backline, add buffs when needed, quickly!”

    “Right, Brother Seven!”

    The bunch of people used their buffs and helped to add effects to everyone.

    A few seconds later, there was a rumbling sound in the distance.
Shortly after, trees shook and one could hear the breaking of branches.
In the next second, a black figure flew over.
Trees were being uprooted, it was being tossed over by beings with terrifying strength!

    Thousands of trees flew over.
Those scenes were just too majestic!

    “Defend!”

    I shouted, “All Mages use your shields!”

    “Peng peng peng~~~”

    Before I finished, the trees just landed in the NPC and players.
Some hit the front and some hit the back.Three Sika Deer Cavalry on the frontlines managed to block one three with their shield and each lost half their health.
They knocked onto the shield of those behind them.

    Not far from us, a huge tree smashed into the backline of Dragon Rider Hall.
A white light flew up and the giant branch rolled out on the ground.
Those players that were hit all died, especially squishies like Mages, Priest and Archers.

    …

    “Hahahaha~~~”

    In the distance, a burst of familiar laughter spread out, “Xuanyuan Ying…
Hahha, what nonsense Dragon Martial Emperor.
I think you aren't leading the troops, you are just asking for death! Wait and see, my Pioneer Army will make you regret coming here.
Are you prepared to get murdered?”

    “Damn!”

    Under Yundian Mountain, Guan Yang's ice was cold, “Pioneer Valen you jerk!”

    …

    “Charge! I know that all of you have been craving for flesh and blood~~~”

    In the next second, Valen's voice disappeared from the sky.
What replaced it was a shaking forest.
They were here!
