Sword Among Us

Panda Novel

More than ten thousand cavaliers fighting against twenty thousand players was definitely a majestic sight that caused blood to boil on the vast plains.

Even the people from the four great sects were all immersed in the war. They charged about the battlefield, and once they killed one Mongolian cavalier, they immediately went to lock down on their next enemy on the battlefield in frenzy.

In fewer than two hours, the battle ended!

It ended with the Mongolian cavaliers losing completely, the final one thousand cavaliers breaking out of the encirclement to flee, and the main camp sending out their second battalion and launching their charge to scare away the people from the four sects.

The twenty-thousand man army quickly left the enemy camp under the setting sun.

This battle was immediately uploaded to the official website.

There were more than four hundred battle replays about it, such as Bloody War on the Plains, An Unyielding Charge, Resolute Men and Women, War at the Borders, Strongest Sword Technique, and the Song on the Plains. These battle replays filled the official website.

The battle replays covered all aspects of the battle, and everyone uploaded the situation they recorded on the forum without editing any of it.

In the beginning, the one thousand two hundred cavaliers harassed the Mongolian army flank and lured them out. Then, more than ten thousand cavaliers charged out of the camp with a terrifying momentum. This was followed by Happy attacking. And in the end, it was twenty thousand players fighting against ten thousand charging Mongolian cavaliers head on!

This was a fight at close distance, and it was the most intense and brutal fight!

The unyielding attitude of those twenty thousand players were all reflected in its entirety on the battle replays.

These battle replays were like great bombs that exploded on the official website so greatly that the forum was now entirely flooded with the same topic.

There were countless replies on the forum.

[What the heck?!]

[Is this real?!]

[Are they that crazy that they seriously fought head on against those Mongolian cavaliers?!]

[This is a shock to the eyes… On the first day I was here, I saw fifty thousand players and another five thousand NPC soldiers being cut down by only two thousand Mongolian cavaliers, you know?!]

[Happy, I’m joining Mu Clan!]

[This is insane…]

[My awesome friends on the thread above, I’m begging you to tell me what is the sword technique Happy used. It’s the one that killed more than one hundred Mongolian cavaliers with just one slash!]

[My dear idiot above me, that’s Shifting Stars.]

[I’m looking down on you, idiot above me. Shifting Stars is not a sword technique, and the post above you clearly asked for a sword technique. You’re seriously an idiot. Go back to Mars, why don’t you?]

[…]

[It’s double points?! I lost so much just because I didn’t join?!]

[There’s nothing you can do about double points, you know… Happy now has thirty thousand points…]

[The state council has officially announced that War Achievement Points Rank has been occupied by Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, Wind and Rain Alliance, and Wind Assault Tower. Please send reinforcements! Over!]

When Happy logged off and saw the battle replays and the comments left behind on the forum, he nearly spat on his computer screen.

‘So soon? That’s not very appropriate, is it? Those guys just love showing off too much. Don’t they know to exercise a little bit of restraint? If Class One Hall knows that we’re at the enemy rear, they’ll definitely cause trouble to us.’

Happy frowned and quickly got up to go to the balcony with his phone.

An elegant smell came wafting to his nose.

Xu Xin had an apron tied around her body. She held a fragrant dish and walked out of the kitchen. “Time for food.”

Once she completed her quest, she joined the large army in the plains against the Mongolian army, and she logged off at the same time as Happy did.

“Mm… smells nice.”

Happy went closer to take a sniff with the phone in hand, and he had an intoxicated look on his face. “Eat first, I’ll make a call.”

As he spoke, he called Silver Wolf’s number.

Night had arrived in the game. The twenty thousand army set up camp at a spot far away from the enemy camp and waited for orders. Right now, many people logged off to rest and eat, and Silver Wolf had also left the game right now.

“Need me to come over?”

“Do you want to eat together as well?”

“Nah. Thunder ordered takeout. We’re already eating. What’s wrong?” Silver Wolf’s hearty voice came through the phone.

“Yeah. Did you see the threads on the forum?”

Happy sat down by the dining table while he spoke gravely. While he gestured for Xu Xin to eat, he lifted his chopsticks.

“I do. You’re worried that they’ve revealed our current location and gave Class One Hall a chance to attack us.”

The voice that came from the phone made Xu Xin a little nervous. She bit down on her bottom lip and looked very concerned.

“Yup.” Happy nodded. “Class One Hall will definitely not let go of us twenty thousand people so readily. Based on Medicinal Stone’s investigations, more than ten thousand people have been mobilized during the day in a few cities at the borders on the north. Right now, another batch has entered. But these people did not gather at the camp at the borders. There are at least fifty thousand Class One Hall members who vanished.”

When he said this, he stopped talking.

Silver Wolf already understood what Happy meant. “You’re worried that they’ve already entered the plains to look for us.”

“I’m not worried. My instincts are telling me that they’re already inside.” Happy suddenly had a face he had thought of for a long time flash in his mind. He furrowed his eyebrows a little, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually increased.

“I’ll go back and prepare.” Silver Wolf had clearly noticed it as well.

After all, Happy once warned him and Thunderous Battle about Xu Yao. Silver Wolf also knew that if there were Class One Hall’s spies in the team who leaked their location to Class One Hall, something will definitely happen.

The leaders of the four sects had all logged off to eat, and there were only thousands of people left on the plains.

If Class One Hall decided to launch an ambush right then, if the people from the four sects logged in one after another, they will be killed in an endless stream. The points the twenty thousand people obtained during the day will be completely lost, and without a doubt, they will be trapped in Aru City again!

Silver noticed the danger in this with his sensitive intuition. He handed over his phone to Knife and the other two and said, “Eat first. I’ll go back. Once you finish eating, come in and take over for me.”

“Got it!”

“Go on.”

Once he hung up on the phone, Happy released a breath of relief as if a huge burden had been released from his shoulders. With Silver Wolf serving as the garrison, the situation will be much better.

Silver Wolf will definitely arrange manpower to scout out the area, and he will not readily allow anyone to get close to the region where the army set up camp. He can also notify the others to log in beforehand.

However, just when Happy was prepared to put down his phone, he suddenly noticed that he had a notification telling him that he had one miscall on his phone screen.

“Hmph?”

Happy subconsciously went to look at the caller’s name.

There was none, but the phone number was incredibly familiar.

Xu Yao!

He scowled.

Happy’s expression immediately turned sour. The feeling that something bad happened became even stronger.

He had been worried that Xu Yao had revealed the army’s coordinates to Class One Hall, and he did not expect that Xu Yao will call at this moment. What exactly was she doing?

He pondered over this for a few seconds before Happy resolutely returned the call. At the same time, he made his decision that no matter what Xu Yao said, he must end the call within a short period of time. He will also have to return to the game to check the situation.

Beep!

He did not expect that right after the first ring, Xu Yao picked up the phone.

“Happy!” Xu Yao’s voice was very nervous and uneasy. “Did you see the threads on the website—You know what’s going on? It’s like this, I have a bad feeling that Class One Hall will learn about our location. Think. We have twenty thousand people from the four sects. If anyone leaks news of our whereabouts to them and knows that most of us logged off, the people from Class One Hall will definitely not let go of such a rare chance.”

Happy said nothing.

Xu Yao’s rapid string of words caught Happy off guard, and his expression changed.

‘What’s going on?!’
