VRMMO: The Unrivaled

Chapter 1045: Wild King

Translator: alyschu

The Divine Elephant Cavalry certainly fell under “heavy cavalry” category. Their mount was a red-colored war elephant at least several tons heavy, but was able to move like lightning even in forest terrain. One of them could already shake the ground with their feet, one hundred thousand of them was a goddamned earthquake one could feel from a far distance. Their ivory was obviously deadly, evident from the steel spikes it was covered in, and when they ran, it was like an SUV moving at 100 miles per hour. I could only imagine how it felt to be run over by one.

......

On the ground, facing toward the northeast side was a China guild called Barbarian Tribe. They were ranked 23rd in Sky City, and they were fairly famous considering their guild size. Right now, they were directly in the path of the Divine Elephant Cavalry. The guild leader of Barbarian Tribe, a Level 189 heavy knight called War Axe raised his broadsword and shouted, "Barbarian Tribe, we have company! Shielders, form a shield formation facing toward the enemy! Archers, deliver Shock Arrows and Mountain Stagger Arrows into the enemy with Far Shot! Mages, use Arctic Rain to slow the enemy before killing them with Touch of the Dragonkiss and Galaxy Storms! There are at least 300k of us here, so there’s no need to panic or be afraid!"

Chiang chiang chiang!

The magic knights dropped their shields on the ground and hid behind them, leaving only their spears, swords and other weapons poking through the gaps. They held their breaths, widened their eyes, and waited for the inevitable.

Their archers released their bowstrings, and a swarm of arrows immediately flew toward the Divine Elephant Cavalry. However, the enemy riders were prepared for this and blocked the arrows easily just by raising their shields. The effects were minimal at best.

Once the enemy got closer, Galaxy Storms, Spiraling Arrow Blades and more powerful skills merged together to form a line of fire that killed many a Divine Elephant Cavalryman. However, even more enemies rode through the attacks like the wind and slammed into the shield formation like living meteors, tearing giant holes in the defense line instantly. Once the Barrier Breaks and other skills began, Barbarian Tribe players began falling en masse. They were losing almost immediately after the two armies engaged in battle.

The Divine Elephants were huge and impactful boss-tier mounts. Barbarian Tribe’s mounts were a mix of wolves and warhorses that weren’t even 50% as big as the Divine Elephants, and most importantly, weren’t boss-tier mounts. More importantly, the Divine Elephant Cavalry was the ace cavalry of the second strongest guild of Cyan Earth City, meaning that their players were all outstanding players on the same level as Ancient Sword or Snowy Cathaya. Unfortunately for Barbarian Tribe, the outcome of this skirmish was never in question.

War Axe was a man, however. Despite the giant discrepancy of strength between his guild and the enemy’s, he remained where he was while roaring, "Don’t be afraid! Neither you nor I have the right to withdraw here, so fight! Even if we die, we must delay these people and buy as much time as possible for our brethren to conquer the city!"

And so, Barbarian Tribe fought like crazy and literally held off the enemy with their lives. War Axe fought at the front and killed as many Divine Elephant Cavalrymen as he could. The frontliners kept charging with zero regard for their lives. Even the archers and mages had abandoned all pretenses of self-preservation and just focused on dishing out as much damage as they could.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a brawny man riding a black warhorse and wielding a battle axe emerged from the Divine Elephant Cavalry. Wearing a savage smile on his face, he galloped past War Axe and hit him three times in quick succession. Each strike had come from an unusual angle and ended up on the guild leader’s weak point. As a result, three super-high damage numbers popped above his head—

80990!

142773!

123389!

War Axe, the guild leader of Barbarian Tribe, let out a muffled groan and collapsed to the ground just like that. His eyes were full of anger and resistance. It looked like he didn’t expect his opponent to be so strong that he was defeated with barely any resistance at all.

The killer of War Axe was none other than the guild leader of Nation Guardian, Wild King. He was a Level 190 berserker. Although he hadn’t participated in the WEL, the fact that he had founded a king of guilds like Nation Guardian was a clear testament to his strength. Compared to Nation Guardian, Barbarian Tribe was nothing at all.

"Kill! Take out this Barbarian Tribe first! Don’t leave even a single one of them alive!" Wild King shouted while swinging his axe. "The Chinese think they can look down on us, so show them how wrong they are with the weapons in your hands! No need to worry about dying, our main force will arrive and reinforce us in half an hour at most!"

The Divine Elephant Cavalrymen laughed and proceeded to kill as many Chinese players as they could to beef up their Nation War contribution points.

Without their guild leader, Barbarian Tribe was nothing more but a disorganized rabble. They could do nothing except be slaughtered by the enemy.

......

"That cruel bastard!"

A fire burned within Gui Guzi’s black pupils as he stared at the carnage. He turned toward me and implored, "Boss Broken Halberd, you gotta obey me this once! We cannot let the Divine Elephant Cavalry kill our people like this! Let’s head down there together and teach them a lesson, or they’ll think that China has no one who can make them answer for their crimes!"

I was in full agreement with Gui Guzi, so I said to Hot and Sour Noodles, "Uncle, can you take care of the siege while Gui Guzi and I are gone? We’re going to face down Divine Elephant Cavalry with our main cavalry and teach them a lesson in humility. Also, can you contact Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance and ask them what the hell they are doing? I thought they were holding the enemy at bay, so how was Nation Guardian able to come all the way to Purple Grape City? Anyway, just tell them to send some men over already. This is no pressure any army should ever have to face!"

Hot and Sour Noodles nodded. "Understood. Righteousness, Snowy Cathaya and Blazing Hot Lips will handle things while you deal with Nation Guardian. But... Are you sure Ancient Sword can deal with the Divine Elephant Cavalry on your own? I’m well aware that your guild is not at its full strength right now."

I replied through gritted teeth, "It’s not like I got a choice, do I? I’ve already sent Li Chengfeng, Heaven’s Rain and Diamond Dust to that inhuman shithole called Final Duel Valley. What else can I not sacrifice to win this war?!"

Hot and Sour Noodles nodded seriously. "Don’t worry. Your guild’s efforts and sacrifice will not be in vain. Everyone will know that Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls is the pride and the true king of the China server!"

"Heh!"

I let out a chuckle before unsheathing my sword, yelling, "Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, follow me to the ground and fight Nation Guardian right now! They call themselves the second strongest guild in Cyan Earth City and third strongest guild in the India server, right? Very well, we will crush their legend today and add another one to our own!"

Everyone laughed and followed me down the walls. Once we reached the ground, we immediately summoned our mounts, moved about a couple hundred meters to the front and assembled our forces there. It wasn’t long before our 5000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen and 4000 Dragonlight Archers were ready. We also had 50k Cyan Tiger Cavalrymen from the subguilds—at least 30k came from Bloody Mercenaries alone—so that was a relief. Finally, our mage and archer parties had survived the war relatively intact so far and numbered at least 100k. 190k troops should be enough to deal with Nation Guardian!

An intimidating light reflected off the blade of the Purple Ying Sword as I stared at the Divine Elephant Cavalry at the distance. I gritted my teeth and ordered, "Prepare to charge! Don’t leave a single one of these Divine Elephants alive!"

Everyone unsheathed their weapons and responded in unison, "Leave no one alive!"

"Kill!"

As usual, I was the first to charge toward the enemy while my cavalry followed closely behind. Beiming Xue and the 4000 Dragonlight Archers were even faster than our heavy cavalry, so they roamed around the edges of the battlefield so they could assist our main army at a moment’s notice. One might say that our strongest trump card was the cohesion between our Dragonlight Cavalry and Dragonlight Archers; a strong and soft force that could crush any opposition!

......

Finally, the guild leader of Nation Guardian, Wild King, felt the tremors on the ground and looked in our direction. The moment he noticed us, he shivered and shouted on top of his lungs, "Divine Elephant Cavalry, form up! China’s ace cavalry is here, form up and mount a countercharge now! Only one of us will be walking away today!"

The Divine Elephant Cavalry had only lost less than 10k men since the start of the carnage. The over 90k-strong cavalry even changed directions and charged toward us as one massive unit! It was brute force versus brute force!

He Yi, Chaos Moon, High Fighting Spirits, Gui Guzi, Xu Yang, Du Thirteen, Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun and I formed the first line of the charge as we rode toward the enemy. The Dragonscale Beasts moved as fast as they could because speed directly impacted the force behind a charge. A while later, He Yi cried out, "Ready!"

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!

Everyone responded by pointing their weapons toward the enemy at the same time. Skills were unnecessary during the first impact because most people wouldn’t be able to react properly anyway. They could use it after the enemy was knocked back via brute force!

A series of crunching noises broke out as the Divine Elephant Cavalry and the Dragonlight Cavalry slammed into one another. The Divine Elephant Cavalrymen were absolutely heavier than the Dragonlight Cavalry, but our knights were fully buffed by our bards! It was time to see whose advantage was better than the other!

......

Bang bang bang!

I felt a gigantic force hitting me as I slammed into the rider of me. Let’s just say that it was something that even I wouldn’t care to relive a second time. Thankfully, the Dragonlight Cavalry ultimately proved to be stronger, and the enemy’s riders and mounts were sent staggering to the back. He Yi barked out another order, and our generals immediately fired our Barrier Breaks, Mountain Stagger Slash, Xiezhi Howl, Rock Crush and more toward the enemy!

I fired Thousand Ice Slash + Burning Blade Slash combo with great strength and one-shot an entire group of people. Then, I dropped seven Ancient Seals to deal a ton more damage.

He Yi ordered, "Ghost Chariot Legion, break the enemy with Ghost Chariot Slash!"

The Dragonlight Cavalry raised their arms, and countless Ghost Chariots flew out of hexagrams and toward the enemy. The little umbrellas spun like a top and cut into the enemy’s armor and flesh like meat grinders, killing another group of Divine Elephant Cavalry before they could react. They clearly weren’t expecting this. It was only now that they realized that we were no lambs for slaughter like Barbarian Tribe!
