Smoke bombs were a rather low-level item in World of Martial Arts. They could be sold in many places, and during the early stages of the game, they were very popular among players. They were usually used to fight against other players or to escape. They were cheap but practical items.
Since smoke bombs did not possess offensive capabilities and could only create smoke in a small area to obstruct vision, Class One Hall felt rather helpless when they faced the sudden invasion of countless smoke bombs! They could only watch as balls of smoke swiftly spread out in the lawless area and blur their vision. They could do nothing about it.
Even though smoke bombs were fired from the streets, this sort of action was tolerated by the elites in Dragon's Gate and the people who maintained order.
A large area of smoke enveloped the entire Survival Platform and the lawless area. Fatal Flying Matrix instantly crumbled on its own. Once they lost sight of their target, no matter how strong the people from Assassin Hall were, it was impossible for them to test whether they could win the prize of five million when they had so many people on their side.
Barren Murderer was the first to react.
"Get rid of the smoke! Hurry! "
Barren Murderer panicked.
When he saw this, he already understood Happy's intentions. When he was in Ghost's Domain, Happy used the unique environment and visual obstructions in Ghost's Domain to chase after them for a distance of ten miles, causing all the Blood Alliance members to die.
Happy was alone, and he attacked without any reservations. Their advantage in numbers became their greatest weakness due to their field of vision being limited.
No matter what, they absolutely could not give Happy the chance to kill!
Unfortunately …
There were not just one or two smoke bombs that were fired from the periphery of the crowd.
Smoke filled the entire lawless area.
Even if dozens of elites used their palm-generated wind to force the smoke away at the same time, when the air surged and circulated in all directions, the situation did not immediately turn for the better.
But at that moment, heavy whistles that tore through the air that caused their hearts to tremble could already be heard in the crowd. They were the sounds of bodies crashing violently against heavy objects and tragic screams.
"Hall master!"
"We can't get rid of the smoke!"
"Someone's causing trouble outside!" Quite a number of people were shocked and angry in the smoke.
The sounds of smoke bombs exploding around them and above their heads rose nonstop.
Right when their field of vision became a little clearer, it was immediately covered by new smoke, and it made them incredibly gloomy.
During that period of time, the heavy sounds of air being torn and pained screams rose nonstop.
Barren Murderer could sense that Happy was continuously closing in on him. At least seven or eight people beside him had fallen. The sound of his body tearing through the air and stirring up the smoke vortex was incredibly clear. Happy was very fast, and his rhythm was not disorderly. He did not look like he was heavily injured at all. Instead, he gave off a carefree and unrestrained feeling, as if he had completely erupted from being suppressed! He rushed to a place not far away, as if he was crushing dry weeds and rotten wood.
Listen to the wind to determine the location.
Over the past five years, Barren Murderer had long since developed this ability.
However, in such a complicated situation, with countless Life Stealing Heaven Flying Maces circling above his head, and with his own people all around him, this was the first time he had to deal with a powerful enemy.
Barren Murderer's face was pale. For the first time in his life, he felt fear and uneasiness, as if he was in control of everything that he lacked. He listened to the continuous sounds of air being pushed aside and screams of pain by his ears. He tapped against the ground repeatedly and quickly retreated in the smoke.
At this moment.
In fact, Barren Murderer no longer dared to command the people around him.
When he spoke just now, he had already allowed Happy to ascertain his location. He was worried that once he spoke, Happy would instantly locate him.
However …
Barren Murderer's choice was clearly not very rational.
The sudden chaos not only caused the people from Assassin Hall to completely lose their ability to control the situation, the elites from Class One Hall and Blood Alliance also did not know what to do.
In a situation where they could not see anything, everyone felt their hands and feet bound. They could not fight freely. The unknown situation and their companions' continuous screams of pain quickly magnified the fear they had toward Happy in their hearts.
Retreat!
The only thought in everyone's minds was to stay away from the screams of pain.
The group of people who were in charge of controlling the situation outside the area were also incredibly frustrated and resigned.
The silver-robed people were all pretty good.
But they did not dare act recklessly against the people who were in the area protected by Dragon's Gate.
They could only watch as smoke bombs shot out from inside and released balls of smoke. Aside from glaring at them in anger, they could do nothing about it.
The people from Assassin Hall were the most gloomy.
Barren Murderer and his group of top-class elites dodged everywhere, and they immediately became the most obvious enemies in the smoke.
Those top-class elites might be able to last a few hits in front of Happy, but the assassins who moved about in the dark could not even last one hit in front of Recondite Steel Heavy Sword. They were crushed to the point that they coughed up blood and were sent flying. Some of them even died from the shock!
In the chaos …
The screams of pain became even more frequent and denser.
"Retreat!
"Assassin Hall members, retreat!"
The leader of Assassin Hall roared in anger in the smoke. Even though this was not what he promised Barren Murderer to do, in less than half a minute, he had heard more than twenty familiar screams of pain from his people, and that damn Class One Hall did not even have a single plan to handle the situation. He could not calmly watch his people die one by one.
Right when he finished speaking, the air moved.
A powerful gust of wind brought with it smoke charged at him.
The leader of Assassin Hall reacted rather quickly. He quickly realized that he might have been targeted by Happy, and he was shocked. He quickly activated his body fortification technique and took a step to the left to avoid the scorching sword glare that grazed past his face.
This sort of skill was already considered pretty good among the ranks of top-class elites!
Unfortunately for him …
The enemies he ran into were not at this level.
"Come back."
Even though his sword momentum missed, Happy used the flow of the smoke and air around him as well as the sound of air being sliced to quickly lock down on the person's trajectory. He used Wave-like Subtle Steps and executed Dragon Capture with one hand. The person was immediately sucked into his hand by a power he could not fight against.
"Urk!"
The pitiful leader of Assassin Hall only felt a powerful force control him, and his body stiffened. Then, his organs were rammed violently by a violent force, and a mouthful of sweet blood surged into his throat.
Before he could do anything else, the astonishing sword momentum came crashing down on him like a mountain. His vision turned black, and intense pain instantly destroyed all his consciousness.
…
Even though the leader of Assassin Hall died because of one order, Assassin Hall managed to avoid the disaster of being completely wiped out because of it. Among the two hundred people, more than one hundred and sixty people managed to escape from the smoke-shrouded lawless area.
But Barren Murderer and the others were not so lucky.
More than half of the forty or so famous martial artists who were between top-class elites and top-class elites died. Blood Alliance lost seven people, Class One Hall lost thirteen people, Heaven's Music Sect lost three people, and the elites who did not belong to any sect lost five people.
As Barren Murderer and the others retreated from the smoke-shrouded area, the number of smoke bombs thrown in the crowd gradually decreased.
But Happy did not come out.
Whoosh!
A violent gust of wind blew past them.
Most of the smoke was swept away by the wind.
The ungoverned area that was covered by the smoke gradually became clearer, and the Life and Death Ring also appeared in a hazy manner.
At that moment, everyone held their breaths.
When the violent wind blew away all the smoke in the lawless area and the situation inside was clearly revealed to the people, the crowd let out cries of surprise that had been suppressed for a long time.
Corpses were scattered all around Survival Platform.
There were more than seventy of them!
Even though the number was not very majestic, the people who saw this still felt complicated emotions.
The people who set up an ambush to kill Happy were not normal martial artists, and neither were they like the normal disciples in Class One Hall's branch.
Regardless of whether it was Heaven's Music Sect, Assassin Hall, Blood Alliance, or Class One Hall, the people who could come here were all rather famous in the game!
It was especially so for the dozens of elites who attacked together with Barren Murderer to trap Happy. Each of them was a powerful player who could make the entire Chinese server sense their strength with just a stomp of their feet.
But now …
The dozens of powerful players whose names were remembered by the people had cold corpses.
The Fatal Flying Matrix with the astonishing momentum had already disappeared, and there were still a few Fatal Flying Maces lying on the ground.
"Where did he go?!" The Class One Hall members who surrounded the area widened their eyes and looked around, but they could not find Happy, and they began discussing among themselves.
"Did he run away?"
"He used a scheme to kill so many of us, and he actually fled without saying a word?!" The momentum that had been snatched away seemed to have returned to many Class One Hall members, and quite a number of them spoke up.
"Which direction did he run from?!"
"There were so many of you, but you didn't manage to stop him?!"
Only Barren Murderer and the people from Blood Alliance's Elder Council had sour expressions while they stared at the empty lawless area. They did not say a word.
They knew very well why Happy left!
Dozens of top-class elites had been killed in the chaos just now, and more than thirty Assassin Hall members had also been killed!
The people from Assassin Hall and the remaining dozen or so elites were no longer enough to threaten Happy. In fact, they did not even have the courage to continue facing Happy and fight against him.
Happy must have guessed Class One Hall's next move, which was why he left Dragon's Gate unhesitatingly during the chaos.
"Immediately send a messenger pigeon to the hall master and tell her that we've already failed in our mission." Barren Murderer stopped talking for a moment before he cast a glance at the depths of the crowd with a dark expression. "Someone is helping Happy, but he's not from Wind Assault Tower. Happy must have continued heading north to Beijing. Notify the hall master and have her be prepared."
"… Understood."
The Class One Hall member who answered had a rather dejected and indignant expression on his face.
…
No matter what, Dragon's Gate was the distribution center for information in the Chinese server, and it was the place where information could be spread the fastest.
The news of Happy fighting head-on against Class One Hall, breaking the tight encirclement set up by Class One Hall, Blood Alliance, and Assassin Hall, forcefully killing dozens of famous elites, and even retreating unscathed spread through the entire Chinese server.
A ruckus rose in the game once more!
In fact, rumors began to appear in the game that Happy's final destination was Class One Hall's headquarters in Beijing.
Happy intended to use the negative influence brought by Class One Hall's collusion with Wild Wolves to destroy Class One Hall in one go. He wanted to destroy the second greatest force of power in the Chinese server, which had its roots in the Chinese server for five years and had its name at the top for five years!
