But the Barbed Canine Fang Arrows were very sinister. Not only did they have the effect of breaking defenses, once they stabbed a person, the arrow would trigger a mechanism that would plunge deep into a person's body and hook them tightly. Those who were hit would either die or be injured, and they would lose their ability to fight.
Thud, thud, thud, thud …
Even the strongest group of bandits in the desert would not dare to easily provoke this group of people!
Whoosh!
"We'll see a town after we get over a few more sand dunes. Our base is there, and we can avoid the imperial court's dogs!"
Rumble!
"Alright!"
They had been able to fight against them for a while and get out of the encirclement because there were not many Embroidered Uniform Guards.
The battle for the desert palace, the devastating fight between the eight elites in the dao of heaven, and the ominous sign that Tiger Soul had reappeared happened hundreds of feet under the desert. Aside from Happy, no other player knew about it, and naturally, no one knew what was happening underground.
When they saw this, Phantasmal Shadow, Wu Kuo, and Niu Dali made their decision at the same time.
Under the group's dumbfounded gazes, ten thousand horses charged forward, and sand danced in the air. The group was quickly drowned out by the sand that rose high into the air.
Someone in the crowd cried out in surprise.
Rumble …
Rumble!
"What should we do now?"
Phantasmal Shadow's expression changed on the spot.
When they saw this, the duo did not dare to hesitate for even a moment. They ran back to the formation at the same time to bring the bad news to Phantasmal Shadow and Niu Dali.
For a period of time, the sounds of air being sliced rose nonstop, and arrows flew everywhere.
Rumble …
Ever since they were chased out of Dragon Gate Inn by the black sandstorm and slaughtered their way out of the underground tunnel, the group had never stopped fighting. On their way, there was a continuous stream of people being ambushed and killed on the way. Even Wind Assault Tower had lost a few of their elites.
"Don't stop!"
In truth, the Embroidered Uniform Guards who were in Inaction Realm were not difficult to deal with.
Mad Bee Arrows might cover a wide area, but their damage was not something to be afraid of. As long as they had antidotes on them, they would not be a problem.
Silver Wolf and his party were among the crowd.
"Careful of the Barbed Fang Arrows!"
The duo sucked in sharp breaths and looked around. They saw that the people directly behind them were already less than three hundred feet away. As long as they got over the sand dunes, they would be able to catch up to them.
The faint sound of horse hooves came from behind them.
The men of the Brocade Guard also appeared on the left and right sides. The line of iron hooves stretched out until it looked like a pocket. It was already showing signs of surrounding a group of people.
However, this group of people were like stray dogs, running for their lives behind the desert. From time to time, they would look back, their faces full of anxiety and unease.
Thousands of Embroidered Uniform Guards!
The group of people was suddenly at a loss!
Whoosh whoosh!
The army of the Embroidered Uniform Guards seemed to have received some sort of order. The vanguard of the army had only charged ten meters away from Cao Huaian and the others when they suddenly split up.
The two of them roughly estimated that there were at least thousands of pursuers!
Cao Huaian frowned. At the same time, he and Mo Yan handed the children to the people next to them. He said in a low voice, "Brother He, take them and go first! I'll stop them! If you're not afraid of death, follow me!! "
Phantasmal Shadow's words stopped everyone from saying anything else.
"If you give up on the quest, you'll be breaking your promise. You'll have to clear all your Chivalry Points and Reputation Points. All the quests you completed and the reputation you built will be wiped clean."
"It's already too late for us to say this now. If we bring the children, we won't be able to outrun the Embroidered Uniform Guards. It's only a matter of time before they catch up to us."
However, at the periphery of the black sandstorm was a group of martial artists in ragged clothes who were escorting two children. They dashed through the desert in panic.
"Give up on the quest?" When they heard the increasingly deafening sounds of iron hooves behind them, quite a number of people became anxious, and they voiced their opinions. "I think we should just give up on the quest. This quest is too crazy. It's impossible to complete it."
The expressions of Silver Wolf and his party tensed up. They protected each other as they knocked away the arrows.
A dense wave of iron hooves stirred up a violent sandstorm as they chased after them. They were like a huge black dragon, and their ends could not be seen.
"Bastards! It's those poisonous arrows again! "
There were also a few unfortunate people whose traps were triggered, and barbed canine arrows shot out of their bodies. They howled in pain for a long time while they were covered in blood. They blocked the arrows for a while, but in the end, they knelt down in the desert while covered in arrows.
Rumble!
What was difficult to deal with was that not only were the Embroidered Uniform Guards armed to the teeth, they also had all sorts of demon vessels and arrows created by the imperial court. They were Furious Wasp Arrows that could shoot out a cluster of poisonous needles in the air, Barbed Canine Arrows that could pierce a person's body and destroy their organs, and Phoenix Tail Arrows that could appear and disappear mysteriously, which was difficult to guard against.
Not long after …
"Let's go and see what's going on."
"They've caught up to us!"
The demon vessels and arrows mixed among the normal arrows killed a group of people on the spot. More than ten people fell on the sand, and their bodies were quickly pierced by the arrows. They were so dead that they could not be any more dead.
Four people were the first to respond to Cao Huaian's call. They turned around at the same time and followed Cao Huaian and Mo Yan in the direction of the Embroidered Uniform Guards' army.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of the more than one hundred martial artists died!
Various martial artists surrounded a dozen or so martial artists dressed in black robes and pants, along with Jin Xiangyu, the owner of Dragon Gate Inn.
They were all elite Embroidered Uniform Guards who were fully armed!
The group of people were about to be devoured by the army.
When the group of martial artists heard Cao Huaian's calm orders, they struck their heads and continued running.
Clang! Clang!
"Those damn dogs of the imperial court!"
Cao Huaian frowned and turned his head around.
"Why don't you take your people and leave? We'll stay here to stop them and stall for time for you." The people from Wind Assault Tower spoke up with Wu Kuo as their leader. They were prepared to sacrifice themselves and try their best to help Cao Huaian and the others escape.
The group's expressions were mostly the same. They looked incredibly pathetic and tired.
"Tower master!"
Under Silver Wolf and his party's lead, more than one hundred martial artists turned around. Aside from around ten players who continued to protect Yu Qian's children and run, most of them chose to fight to the death to stall for time for Yu Qian's children.
A dense wave of arrows stabbed into the crowd, and pained screams rose nonstop.
Ever since the quest in Dragon Gate Inn was activated, they never had a relaxing time. They were chased down and ambushed by the Embroidered Uniform Guards repeatedly, and more people died. They did not dare to be careless while they were on the way, because they were worried that the two children they were protecting, or Cao Huaian and Mo Yan would die if they were careless.
"Damn it!"
"Ah!"
At that moment, not only did they embarrass themselves, they also embarrassed their sect.
"Big Brother Silver Wolf?"
When dozens of martial artists forced their way into the Embroidered Uniform Guards' army, a low and loud horn sound suddenly came from the high slope to the left.
As for Phoenix-tailed Arrows, only a few people had the right to use them. They were arrows that could be set at will, and even elites at the peak of Myth Realm would have a hard time fending against them.
"I'll go."
The galloping sounds became denser and stronger.
"Follow them!"
"They're here …"
"Do we even have a choice at this moment?" When he faced Knife, Thunder, and Thunder's questioning gazes, Silver Wolf frowned a little. "Follow them and form a formation. At that time, we just need to protect ourselves."
But now …
Phantasmal Shadow could no longer hold back.
With these demon vessels and arrows, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had killed nearly one hundred martial artists who were not weak, and they chased them all the way to this place.
Rumble …
Clang!
Everyone's Body Movements and strength were slightly suppressed in the desert. Besides, they had to split up their attention to protect Cao Huaian and Yu Qian's children, so they had a lot of things to worry about. They could not dodge the Embroidered Uniform Guards' arrows at all.
Whoosh!
Iron hooves charged over from both sides, and they were like a huge, elongated sack that went to envelop the group of people who were fleeing for their lives.
Cao Huaian, Mo Yan, and the others might be at Myth Realm, but as the Embroidered Uniform Guards chased after them endlessly, they lost a lot of their stamina.
Right now, both of them carried a child in their arms and ran at the front.
Along with them were Wind Assault Tower's tower master, Phantasmal Shadow, and Stained Robes Sect's sect master, Niu Dali.
As time passed, the Embroidered Uniform Guards finally jumped over the sand dune and entered the group's field of vision.
"What should we do? Should we just throw caution to the wind and fight against the imperial court?! "A few boorish and heroic voices suddenly rose from the crowd, and they were mixed with the boorish air of the world of wanderers.
Aside from Phantasmal Shadow, Silver Wolf, and the other powerful players who followed behind Cao Huaian, Mo Yan, and Jin Xiangyu and rushed to the front of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the others knelt down after a few rounds of arrow showers. The scene was incredibly devastating.
"We'll fight against them!"
It would have been better if they had not seen it, because when they did, they were shocked.
Right now, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had surrounded them from three directions, and there was no place for them to hide in the desert. They had nowhere to run, and there was no way for them to escape. Were they supposed to just watch the Embroidered Uniform Guards catch up to them?
At the same time …
The expressions of the players changed slightly, but Cao Huaian and Mo Yan did not say anything, which was a rare sight. The group did not slow down and continued running on the sand dune.
The four of them were people who had been through fire and water. Even if they faced a real hail of bullets, they would not frown, much less in a game.
Once a person beside Wu Kuo received a signal, he left the group and ran to a higher spot.
At the same time, Niu Dali could vaguely sense that the number of pursuers behind them might have increased by a lot, and he could not help but order one of his subordinates to run to a higher spot to check the enemy's situation.
The development of the plot had clearly surpassed their expectations!
Once the Embroidered Uniform Guards surrounded them, they would definitely die. After all, there was a super elite among the pursuers from the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
When the Embroidered Uniform Guards charged over, they quickly saw through the group's intentions, and they grabbed their bows from the backs of their horses.
The sounds of horse hooves behind them grew denser and more deafening. It was as if the entire desert was trembling for some unknown reason.
Phantasmal Shadow and the other players could not calm down.
They were in a perilous situation!
There were more than one hundred men and women in the group, and none of them had weak qi realms. When they stepped on the soft sand dune, they only left behind a shallow layer of footprints, and they moved as if they were flying.
It was as if they were at the eye of a storm. They gathered together, not knowing what to do.
The sounds of horse hooves shook the desert, and they stirred up yellow sand that filled the air. They charged at the group like dark clouds!
The former was still manageable.
Phantasmal Shadow's expression was dark.
Countless black dots fell from above and shot into the group.
