It was at this moment a troop of players led by Hot and Sour Noodles came our way. He was riding a warhorse and wielding a sharp blade. "Are you ready to break through their defense line now, Lu Chen?"

"Yeah."

I nodded while replying, "I’ve received news from Cute Little Naughty that our assassin party has slipped inside White Horse City, and they’ll be stirring trouble in one hour or so. Our objective now is to hit the enemy’s defense line hard, attract their attention, and help them complete their mission successfully. Once we’re through, it’ll be a smooth journey all the way to White Horse City. All that’s left after that is to occupy the city, hmph hmph!"

Hot and Sour Noodles smiled. "Alright. As a show of my support, I’m borrowing you my remaining 10000 Greedy Wolf Cavalrymen for this battle!"

"Thank you, uncle!" I replied. A while later, I added, "Oh right, there’s one more thing I need to ask your help with."

"What is it?"

"It’s about Lian Xin."

"Oh, you mean the Phantasm of Stars..." Hot and Sour Noodles shot Lian Xin a glance before sighing in admiration. "She is an incredibly powerful mage. Her unique class is already plenty powerful, but her overall strength isn’t inferior to Luo River God of the Capital and Stranger of Three Lifetimes at all. Even better, she’s one of your elders! You have my congratulations, friend."

I smiled. "Well, that is all well and good, but it won’t matter if Lian Xin can’t transfer her account back home. Do you know that her transfer application was denied by Eternal Moon USA headquarters? That is what I want to talk to you about. Can you speak to the CGL committee and influence the process somehow? If Lian Xin successfully transfers her account, then China will gain a super mage."

Zhang Chun nodded solemnly as he gave me his word, "Leave it to me. There are many things I can’t do with my power, but this is one thing I’ll complete no matter what!"

"Thank you very much uncle. We’ll be taking out leave then!"

"Mn. Be seeing you!"

......

After Hot and Sour Noodles left, the 10000-strong Greedy Wolf Cavalry joined up with our 2000+ Dragonlight Cavalrymen and 10000+ Cyan Tiger Cavalrymen. Together, we stood atop a hill and looked down at the Northern Alliance’s formation about one kilometer away from our position.

We saw countless neighing warhorses and Northern Alliance players blocking the exit of Poplar Valley. The exit was about 2000 meters wide, and they were protected by rows and rows of high-level magic knights at the front and powerful archers, mages and priests at the back. Besides that, we also spotted loaded Fire Catapults and archers with drawn bows, ready to attack at a moment’s notice.

It was a terrifying sight to say the least.

"Fuck!"

Li Chengfeng swore before sucking in a deep breath. "Their deep defense is too deep, and their formation too good. As long as their magic knights are covered by their ranged attackers and kept alive by their priests, it’ll be very difficult to kill them all. We can try to brute force this, but we would lose too many Dragonlight Cavalry, and we have to kill them if we wish to make it to the other side."

I nodded in agreement. "Even still, we must grind down their magic knights bit by bit before we can chew into the mages and archers. Did you notice how many Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry are acting as meatshields? It looks like the Northern Alliance are dispatching all their elites this time. What a conundrum!"

Chaos Moon said, "Yeah. Even at a glance I counted almost 20 Heroic Bannermen among the defenders, so this is nothing like we’ve faced before. We will suffer huge losses if we charge them thoughtlessly."

Gui Guzi laughed without the slightest bit of thought behind his words. "Who cares if it’s still a win? Let’s do this!"

I shot him a look. "It’s a win, sure, but how do you suppose we attack White Horse City if we lose most of our troops here? Moreover, it’d be meaningless even if we managed to kill every man and woman guarding the exit. The only true way to eliminate the threat to our server and score one for China is to destroy White Horse City!"

Li Chengfeng commented, "Well, it’s not actually too hard to defeat a defense line like this with small losses. The key is to find a way to separate the magic knights from their mages and priests. If the priests can’t heal their knights, and their mages can’t hit us with their spells, then the Dragonlight Cavalry will easily chop those Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen like vegetables."

Beiming Xue nodded. "But that’s exactly the problem, isn’t it? There isn’t a real way to separate them."

We all fell silent for a moment.

It was at this moment Lian Xin smiled beside me and said, "I think I can give this a try, actually."

My eyes lit up. "You have a plan, Lian Xin?"

"Yep." Lian Xin nodded. "You know that my Origin Force Field can push a player away from a specific location, right? If I throw out all twelve of my Origin Force Fields and create a line of impassable space between the magic knights and their support, you’ll be able to kill them, right?"

No one said anything for a moment. Then, Li Chengfeng slapped his thigh and laughed. "That’s brilliant! Hahaha, Sister Lian Xin is truly a smart girl!"

I nodded. "Alright, we’ll follow this plan. Dragonlight Cavalry, prepare to attack at my command. Cyan Tiger Cavalry and Greedy Wolf Cavalry, standby for orders as well. We’re charging through the moment we tore a hole in the enemy’s defense line. Remember, our objective is to break through the blockade and make it to White Horse Plains only. Everything else is none of our business!"

Everyone nodded. The sounds of unsheathing weapons filled the air for a time.

......

I covered Lian Xin as she jogged toward the enemy’s formation. Li Chengfeng and Chaos Moon were also following us closely just in case something happened to our pretty little sci-fi mage.

When Lian Xin got into range, she immediately waved her scepter and gathered the power of the stars. The next moment, 12 Origin Force Fields appeared out of nowhere!

Bang bang bang...

The force fields created a line of vacuum and distorted the enemy’s defense formation. Large groups of magic knights were pushed forward while the mages and priests were pushed to the back. Before they knew it, they were out of their priests’ range already.

Overjoyed, I raised my sword and shouted, "Now is the time! Kill them all! Show these Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalrymen our true power!"

The ground started shaking beneath our hooves. Our cavalry formation was about 50 yards wide, and we penetrated the enemy’s defense line like a hot knife through butter. Acting as the point of this blade, I spurred the Armored Ice Qilin Horse to slam into the Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry and used War Crush, nailing myself into the heart of their formation. Then, I used my usual combo, Burning Blade Slash and Thousand Ice Slash!

Boom boom boom!

The flaming sword auras and storm of ice blades were too powerful. Countless people were one-shot where they stood!

The Phantom Wolf King roared as it darted between the enemy riders and sliced their armors with Claw of the Storm.

Lin Yixin and the Purple Dragon Cavalry had also appeared from the flanks and charged. The Origin Force Fields themselves might not do any damage to the enemy, but this charge wouldn’t have been nearly as successful without them.

Bang bang bang...

Flesh rammed against flesh as the riders charged into one another. Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi and Chaos Moon slaughtered everyone in their way like invincible gods of war.

Behind us, Beiming Xue and a troop of archers finally caught up to us. It so happened that a column of Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry was attempting to attack our flanks, so the dark archer smiled and waved a gigantic, red abyss into existence, trapping every magic knight that stumbled upon it. What a domineering skill! It was like a black hole that sucked everyone and everything into the center!

"Sister Lian Xin, it’s your turn now. Barbecue them!" Beiming Xue said with a giggle.

A serious-looking Lian Xin waved her scepter beside Beiming Xue. The moment the Well of the Abyss vanished, she immediately cast Ice Spiral Matrix and Dimensional Storm in rapid succession!

Boom boom!

At least a thousand magic knights had been pulled toward a single point when Well of the Abyss vanished. Then, Lian Xin’s Ice Spiral Matrix and Dimensional Storm hit them with nuclear strength and elicited countless screams of pain. Their teamwork was so good that even Purple Marquis couldn’t help but cheer out loud, "Holy shit, that was perfect!"

Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng and everyone else laughed as well. At this point, there was nothing the Northern Alliance could do to stop us any longer.

The light of skills illuminated the valley, and the sounds of weapons biting into armor turned melodious. In less than three minutes, the Bloodthirsty Beast Cavalry crumbled like a sandcastle and could do nothing except wait for death to claim them. Sensing their weakness, the intelligent Lian Xin recast her Origin Force Fields and opened a path in front of us like how Moses had split the sea, exposing the enemy’s archer and mage parties completely!

"Kill them now!"

I, Lin Yixin, Gui Guzi, Purple Marquis and the rest of our elites rushed in and threw every skill we had at the enemy. The mages’ Galaxy Storms weren’t powerful enough to kill us, but their Magic Shields kept warping under the pressure of our skills such as Burning Blade Slash and Ice Flame Slash. Naturally, they died in just the blink of an eye, and the archers were even less of a problem. They were lambs waiting to be slaughtered after they used their only escape skill, Leap.

The two girls, Beiming Xue and Lian Xin stayed close to us as they ravaged the enemy with AoE skills such as Evil Spirit Volley, Spiraling Arrow Blades, Ice Spiral Matrix, Dimensional Storm and more. At this point, the girls were the thorns the Northern Alliance sought to remove as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, they enjoyed the protection of the strongest cavalry in the world. No one was able to get close to them.

......

Beep!

Suddenly, I received a message from Cute Little Naughty. "Mission complete, vice leader! White Horse City’s one and only teleportation formation is destroyed! A lot of our assassins died in the process, but thankfully, we were able to carry out our objective!"

I smiled. "Are you out of danger now, Little Naughty?"

"Yep! I’m outside the city!"

"Very good. Go enjoy the scenery while we make our way over to you. Our army will be arriving at White Horse City’s front gates in an hour tops!"

"Okay! I’ll be waiting for you all!"

......

It wasn’t long before we tore apart the Northern Alliance’s defense line completely. Lian Xin’s strategy aside, the reason we were so successful was also thanks to Candle Dragon, Warsky Alliance, Purple Lily and other powerful guilds diverting some of the enemy’s firepower.

Less than twenty minutes later, the united army that was Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, Snowy Cathaya, Blazing Hot Lips and The Monarch Descends successfully broke through the encirclement. All our frontliners were mounted players, and our total army was almost a million strong. Together, we shattered the silence of White Horse Plains and raced straight for White Horse City!
