Whoosh!
The next morning, the low sound of a horn traveled through the air above the camp in a muffled manner. The camp that had been set up for a few days suddenly moved.
Small groups of cavaliers continuously charged out from the frontline and flanks, and they quickly disappeared into the horizon in the distance. Then, long black dragons shook the ground. While the sounds of horse hooves thundered against the ground, several groups of cavaliers charged out in a continuous line. Then, flags flew in the air, and the army slowly pushed forward.
Countless players stared at the vast sea of people in front of them with dumbfounded expressions. Their ears were filled with the sound of horns, galloping sounds, and orderly footsteps that shook the ground.
Only the people from the logistics department remained where they were. The camps did not move.
'It's finally starting.'
This thought flashed in many people's minds.
But before such a large army, many people could not help but feel shocked and respectful from the bottom of their hearts.
Were they about to face a Mongolian army of such a large scale?
…
"Giddy-up!"
No one knew how much time had passed, but finally, the first person rode his horse to the direction where the cavaliers attacked. His loud shout snapped countless players out of their daze.
Immediately after, the crowd became restless. The horses galloped forward, and the second, third … The silent crowd surged forward like a flood that had been released from a dam. The ground roared again, and a dense group of martial artists surged to the plains beyond the horizon with an astonishing momentum.
They charged forward madly along the path the army took when it pushed forward.
"Brothers and sisters, those who are doing scouting quests and drawing maps, over here!"
Quite a number of bold shouts rose and fell on the horses.
"Those who are harassing the flanks, come with me!"
"Haha! Men should charge into the battlefield! Today, I'll definitely kill to my heart's content! Giddy-up! "
The wind blew, and the clouds surged. The army moved with the force of an avalanche, and they looked as if they could flatten mountains and rivers! The armored cavaliers charged forward like lightning, and it made people feel pressured. They were accompanied by the sound of horns and war drums. Everything stimulated every player in the area and stirred up the passion and fervor in their hearts.
Even Happy was immersed in this strange feeling of passion, and he could not extricate himself from it even after a long time had passed.
He held the reins with one hand and swung his whip with the other. He felt as if he was charging forward in a violent gust of wind. The world was huge, and he felt incredibly free and unfettered.
As time passed, many martial artists overtook the advancing army amid the surging crowd. When they saw that a large number of dark clouds had been left behind, the players' excited cries and long shouts rose nonstop from the sky above the plains.
"Brothers, we'll be leaving first!"
"Hyah!!"
Among the galloping cavalrymen, everyone had their own goals and missions, such as patrolling, investigating, harassing, spying, and so on … There were even some who realized that they had gone too far and had no choice but to turn back to face the advancing army. The sky above the grassland was filled with laughter again.
Rumble! Rumble!
The galloping sounds gradually became fainter, but they also became more frequent.
As the patrolling cavaliers and the people who followed the cavaliers at the flanks left the group, Happy noticed that there were still more than one hundred people in his cavalier group, which was further into the distance. He was slightly shocked.
So …
Before they came out, the higher ups of Mu Clan had analyzed the situation after careful consideration. They came up with the most efficient way to obtain points, and they decided to expand their team from three middle-rank captains to six middle-rank captains.
Based on their original plan, if there were three groups, Happy would occupy one, Silver Wolf would lead Knife and the rest to occupy another, and Thunderous Battle, Little North, Phoenix Dances, and the rest would occupy the last.
But every time they carried out the quest to get rid of the enemy cavalier group, the number of enemy Mongolian cavaliers would be less than one thousand. Mu Clan's elites might be able to get rid of some of them, but since the enemy did not send out a lot of them, there were plenty of competitors. Because of it, they actually wasted a lot of their fighting strength.
To allow everyone to bring out their full fighting strength more effectively, Phoenix Dances boldly suggested that they increase the number of middle-rank cavaliers from three to six. After all, West Region was an independent group, and it would not be a problem for them to get rid of a batch of them.
Rampaging Dragon also said that Sky Demon Branch could form its own group.
As for the headquarters that Thunderous Battle led, it would not be a problem. Silver Wolf could lead the team alone, and when he did the calculations, everyone was instantly tempted.
Once they made a new decision, Happy, who had displayed domineering strength in Beijing, was "chased" out of the ranks of the group, because he had too much fighting strength, and he could fight alone to get points.
The remaining fifth group was given to Knife and the other two to lead.
The group came to a decision that once they completed a batch of harassment at the flanks, they would carry out some normal, small-scale quests. They should be able to get enough points for one middle-rank, and on the second day, or at the latest on the third day, they could activate their private large-scale group combat quests.
But …
Once Happy was "abandoned", he reexamined his quest list and chose a high-difficulty quest that many sects would not dare to readily pick.
It was a scouting quest at the enemy rear.
This quest established Happy's status as a scout!
The quest required Happy to circle around the area near the enemy while the vanguard attracted the enemy's attention and investigate the terrain nearby as well as the situation at the rear.
There were a lot of requirements for scouting quests.
During that period of time, he had to avoid the attention of the main force, kill the enemy scouts, avoid the patrolling soldiers, draw a map of the terrain, investigate the supply routes, hide his tracks, and other quests.
Every time he completed a quest, when he handed in the quest, he would receive more rewards. On the other hand, the points he obtained were pitifully few.
But to Happy …
Scouting at the enemy rear was one of the tasks, and the points were the second. In truth, he had only deduced that there should be quite a number of patrolling cavaliers at the enemy rear based on the situation of the Chinese army, and they should also have logisticians.
If he could openly get rid of a group of enemies, the speed at which he obtained points would be even faster than Silver Wolf and the others.
However, this quest was rather dangerous.
After all, he was going to enter the depths of enemy territory!
But by the looks of it, there were quite a number of people who wanted to take the risk at the back.
There were nearly one hundred players in the party with him, and they were all solo players dressed in third-echelon or fourth-echelon equipment. Aside from a few small parties of three to five people, the others were pretty good.
Happy felt lucky.
Fortunately, when he came, he did not wear a normal grade one non-echelon equipment. Instead, he wore a set of third-echelon masterpieces that could not be considered dazzling, and he could only be considered normal in the party. His human skin mask also hid his original face, so in other people's eyes, he was just a normal player with an unfamiliar face.
"Hey! Brother, are you interested in forming a party with me? "
Just when Happy's mind wandered, an unfamiliar voice caught up to him from behind. A Hoof Shadow came to his side, and when he turned his head around, an unfamiliar smiling face entered his sight.
"I've been watching you for a long time. You're alone, right? How about it? I'll form a party with a few friends who are alone, and we'll be able to take care of each other when the time comes."
Happy was originally prepared to refuse, but what he did not expect was that he would see a pretty face that he was incredibly familiar with behind the person.
"Sure." For some reason, Happy agreed to it.
