Chapter 130: Chaotic Battle
"Yo! Ma Ge, aren't those two down there the targets you were preparing to shoot? Why are you still letting them smash my precious Flying Sword?" the man controlling the Flying Sword mocked.
Ma Ge did not pay attention to his teammate, but instead aimed the muzzle of his gun at Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin below and pulled the trigger.
Down below, Zhao Yuxin's ears twitched, and she tackled Zhu Zhiquan to the ground.
Bang!
The Barrett Sniper Rifle let out a roar, and the cement road where Zhu Zhiquan had been standing was blasted into a hole.
"Sigh~ It's a waste to give such a good gun to you; you'd better watch mine! Rise, go!" The man controlling the Flying Sword pointed with one hand, and a giant dragon composed of countless Flying Swords, accompanied by the clashing sound of metal, attacked the two.
Seeing the giant dragon attacking, Zhu Zhiquan picked up Zhao Yuxin and dove into the tunnel, while the plants on the ground could only be swallowed by the giant dragon where they stood.
Rumble~
The trembling of the ground affected the underground passage, and layers of soil fell onto Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin. Zhao Yuxin took her hands off her ears, patted the dirt off her body, and opened her backpack to let the Green Leaf Burrowing Vine out.
The Green Leaf Burrowing Vine poked out a green leaf, curiously scouting the surroundings. Zhao Yuxin pointed in a direction and ordered: "Dig a path out from here."
After receiving the command, the Green Leaf Burrowing Vine immediately jumped out of the backpack and proceeded to open a new passage in the direction she pointed.
In the sky, Ma Ge and his teammate stared at everything below, but after waiting for a long time without seeing Zhu Zhiquan and the others appear, they instead saw two players in the distance walking toward them.
The two in mid-air looked closely and discovered that one of the two players who had arrived was holding a Brush, and an aura of a scholar radiated from them.
The other was wearing a Cloak, and a fierce intensity emanated from this player; furthermore, neither of these two players was carrying weapons!
Ma Ge looked at the last three bullets for the Barrett, then decisively pulled the bolt and fired a shot at the one holding the Brush.
Who would have thought that just as the bullet made contact with the target, it was blocked by an invisible barrier, and the bullet could only hover 0.5 centimeters from the player holding the Brush.
The bullet from the Barrett Sniper Rifle embedded about an inch into the barrier, and cracks, like a spider weaving a web, formed a palm-sized area around the bullet.
The player wearing the Cloak shuddered, and the bullet was immediately ejected from the barrier, while at the same time, the commands within their body quickly repaired the gap damaged by the bullet.
Ma Ge and his teammate exchanged a look, their thoughts communicated in that moment; since the man and woman underground weren't coming out for the time being, they might as well kill these two greenhorns in front of them first!
Thus, the swordsman commanded the "Sword Dragon" to charge toward these two players, while Ma Ge stood to the side holding the Barrett Sniper Rifle, wondering what he was thinking.
Watching the huge "Sword Dragon" charging toward them, the player holding the Brush wrote and drew on the ground, and then a Fire Dragon of the same size as the opponent charged toward them.
Boom~
Sizzle~
The "Sword Dragon" was melted by the high temperature of the Fire Dragon, and in the end, only a small portion of the Flying Swords remained to maintain the original position of the "Sword Dragon's" tail.
Zhao Yuxin, hearing the commotion from underground, ordered the Green Leaf Burrowing Vine to dig a hole from above, and she herself curiously looked toward the direction the sound came from.
As a result, she saw a Fire Dragon and a "Sword Dragon" made entirely of swords colliding with each other, and finally saw the Fire Dragon achieve ultimate victory, though the Fire Dragon disappeared after winning.
Zhao Yuxin looked at the swordsman's position and found that the swordsman revealed a pained expression, but still controlled the remaining Flying Swords to regroup and fly in one direction.
Zhao Yuxin followed the direction the Flying Swords were moving and discovered that the two players being attacked looked very familiar, then she dove back into the tunnel and said to Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, those two players above don't have time to deal with us right now."
Zhu Zhiquan immediately revealed an expression of surprise, quietly listening to Zhao Yuxin's explanation: "Remember those two players who tried to ambush us in the building earlier? Now they are attracting fire for us, how about we..."
Before Zhao Yuxin could finish speaking, Zhu Zhiquan grinned and interrupted: "Isn't that perfect? Let's go and wipe them all out, let's enjoy the thrill of battle together!"
Zhao Yuxin's eyes widened, and before she could object, Zhu Zhiquan had already rushed out of the tunnel, preparing to join the battle.
Seeing this, Zhao Yuxin threw the Green Leaf Burrowing Vine out and ordered: "Help me stop him!"
The Green Leaf Burrowing Vine landed on Zhu Zhiquan and quickly moved to his legs, wrapping tightly around them.
Zhu Zhiquan immediately fell to the ground, and Zhao Yuxin took the opportunity to pull him back into the tunnel; after a bout of Tom-and-Jerry-style screaming, Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin enjoyed the battle from further away.
Watching Ma Ge in the distance with the Barrett, after he finished firing his bullets, he manifested dozens of bullets in his palm, and incidentally conjured dozens of long swords for his teammate to control.
After the swordsman received the replenishment, he once again controlled the long swords to combine into a new formation in mid-air to launch an attack on the opponent.
Most of the long swords were destroyed by the characters drawn by the player holding the Brush, while a small portion were blocked by the Cloak player using Covering Qi.
At the same time, Ma Ge kept firing from the side, but this time the bullets shot by the Barrett were much smaller than the original ones, because when his manifested bullets hit the Cloak player's Covering Qi, they didn't even cause a single ripple.
"Ptooey~ That tastes terrible." Zhao Yuxin put the fruit of the Green Leaf Burrowing Vine into her mouth, then asked Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, who do you think will win?"
Zhu Zhiquan carefully observed the situation of both sides, analyzing that the faces of the swordsman and the Brush player were particularly pale.
And Ma Ge, finding the Barrett wasn't working well, started spacing out on the spot again. His teammate seemed to understand what he was going to do, so he split off a sword to serve as a transport tool for him.
As for the last player wearing the Cloak, from beginning to end, only the Covering Qi was playing a role, and they were constantly closing the distance with their opponent.
Zhu Zhiquan looked at the situation on the battlefield and analyzed: "If both sides are only gaining benefits from each other, then this battle will at most end in a draw. But if it's a fight to the death, then the swordsman's side will win."
Zhao Yuxin asked in confusion: "Why? I feel like the group playing with the Brush is stronger."
Zhu Zhiquan patiently explained: "Do you know why horses were so valued in ancient times? It's because having speed is equivalent to mastering the initiative on the battlefield!
The group with the Brush hasn't shown mobility, so the possibility of them being dragged to death is very high."
Zhao Yuxin nodded slightly, but then threw out a new question: "Ajiu, I remember that player wearing the Cloak can control people, right? Do you think it's possible they are controlling other players to join the battle now?"
"No rush," Zhu Zhiquan said, staring intently at the battle in the distance. "If they are controlling other players, it is inevitable that they will throw them into the battlefield; we should just wait and see."
After hearing Zhu Zhiquan's analysis, Zhao Yuxin was just about to continue watching the battle, but at this moment her ears twitched, and she pointed at a house shaped like a haunted house and said: "Ajiu, it sounds like someone is talking in that haunted house over there!"
