Chapter 52: First Battle

  When everyone's figures gradually dispersed, four figures who were laughing wildly towards the sky suddenly sat down on the ground with a thud, their mouths wide open, panting heavily...

  The only one standing is none other than me... I'm not unwilling to sit down, but I know... if I also sat down, then we'd be done for.

  The corner of my mouth suddenly burst out a thread of blood, the next moment... I could no longer suppress my injuries, my throat was sweet, and a stream of fresh blood sprayed out, but I still stubbornly refused to fall.

  Under intense pressure, the surging blood and energy, I quickly drew out my trusty blade, using the Seven Cuts of Absolute Annihilation from head to toe once, then again. Only after using it twice did I finally collapse, stumbling backwards before falling down. Before I fell, those four guys had already gotten back up, recovering their combat capabilities!

  The four of them looked at me with admiration, not to mention that I didn't attack earlier, but the shockwave generated by the explosion was completely blocked by me alone. In the face of such a powerful impact, I not only wasn't blown away, but I didn't even take a step back!

  It's not just that... after withstanding such an attack, they still persisted for so long, allowing the four of them to fully recover their combat strength. What a strong will that is! Although others could also do it, but... they deeply know that kind of feeling.

  Actually... after withstanding that wave of attacks, my internal energy had already been exhausted, the next two rounds of Seven Absolute Slashes were completely done by gritting my teeth and forcing it out, if I couldn't feel the weightlessness of the Hundred Wars Sword, I wouldn't have been able to swing it even once!

  I and Hong, Huang, Lan, Lu are different, the recovery of Dou Qi is a rapid process, but Zhen Qi is not. Once it's depleted, it takes a long time to recover, at least not within one minute.

  In the following days, every night we sat cross-legged to practice our internal energy and inner strength. As for daytime, we would conduct drills, maintaining this routine for over a week. Each of us strangely discovered that whenever we exhausted our last bit of internal energy and true energy, upon their recovery, there would be an astonishing increase. This discovery made us even more enthusiastic!

  That day, when we had exhausted every last bit of energy in our bodies, Lan Qi walked in with a heavy expression on his face. Seeing that not-too-good look on his face, everyone's heart skipped a beat, and we all guessed the same possibility at the same time - the battle was about to begin!

  As soon as I thought that I would be stepping onto the battlefield where life and death were uncertain, I shuddered with a chill, but immediately, a surge of excitement that even I couldn't understand swept through my entire body, like a tidal wave rushing towards me, making me involuntarily let out a loud roar!

  Roar!

  Hearing my roar, the red, yellow, blue and green ones stared at me in shock, not knowing why I was so excited to go into battle! That's probably going to be a one-way trip!

  I didn't explain anything, and quietly turned around to head towards the tent. Now isn't the time for explanations, nor would they be clear anyway. What's most important right now is quickly recovering my internal energy in order to deal with the battle that could come at any moment!

  The four guys looked at each other, didn't say a word, and followed me back to the tent. Then they all started to fully recover their energy, everyone knew that every bit of energy was a guarantee for survival.

  Bang! Bang! Bang......

  A burst of drums finally shook the sky, and the five people inside the tent opened their eyes at the same time. The four people, Hong, Huang, Lan, and Lu, felt a chill in their hearts simultaneously, and a feeling of weakness in all four limbs quickly rose from the bottom of their hearts, sweeping through their entire body in an instant... They only felt their limbs go soft, if they were to go into battle now, they probably wouldn't even be able to exert half of their strength.

  Seeing a few people trembling with fear, I couldn't help but shake my head. I really didn't expect that after killing so many people, they would start to get scared at such a critical moment. Now I finally understand that the battlefield and solo combat are completely different, even I'm getting a little nervous.

  I know the importance of morale. If we can't boost everyone's morale, then there's no point in continuing to fight. We might as well all die together and leave our bodies intact!

  Looking at the four of them with confidence, I said firmly: "What's wrong with you guys? What are you worried about? Are you afraid of death?"

  Who's afraid of death!

  The four of them stood up, unwilling to show weakness. What a joke! They were notorious murderers, how could they be afraid of death? If they were afraid of death, they wouldn't have made it this far today.

  Seeing the four guys finally forgot to be afraid because of anger, I said lightly: "Since you're not afraid of death, what are you trembling for? Don't worry, there's still me. You can rest assured that before you recover your combat strength, I will absolutely not fall!"

  The four of them were slightly stunned, and after careful consideration... The four attributes attack that the four of them joined forces to launch was absolutely capable of withstanding the opponent's attack. As long as Hei could hold on for just a short while, life and death could be fought for!

  Actually... they are afraid because of the uncertainty about their future, unlike individual fighting, the battlefield is completely different. Individual fighting can be won through one's own efforts, strength and wisdom, but on the battlefield these are all useless, they simply don't know how to make an effort that will be useful.

  On the battlefield, no matter how high an individual's strength is, unless you have reached a very high standard, otherwise... you are just a drop of water in the ocean, and you can't stir up any waves at all.

  Seeing that all four of them had regained their confidence, I encouraged them: "Believe me... we will absolutely come back alive from the battlefield, no one can kill us!"

  Looking at my confident and firm gaze, the four of them quickly regained their confidence. As they regained their confidence, mine also returned, because... my confidence came from their performance, it was a very rational confidence!

  An hour later, under the drive of the great army, we surged out of the east gate like a tide, and then were pointed at by arrows, disorderly lined up in front of the great army. When the enemy appeared, we would be the first wave of cannon fodder to die!

  Unlike the chaotic and disorganized troops in front, the large army behind was neat and tidy, with a disciplined military appearance, and their formation was orderly. At first glance, it was clear that they were seasoned veterans who had been through many battles, and they could be called elite troops!

  Just as I turned my head to look back, a loud rumbling sound came from afar. When I turned my head in shock, the horizon was filled with smoke and dust, covering half of the sky! We all knew that the enemy had finally arrived!

  Boom...... Boom...... Boom......

  In the midst of a neat rhythm, there were chaotic footsteps. After more than ten minutes, the enemy finally stopped at 1000 meters in front of us. Horses galloped back and forth in front of the enemy's formation, adjusting the entire army's formation. The great battle was about to break out!

  At this moment, the war drums in the city sounded again, boom! The dull sound seemed to beat on everyone's heart, and the atmosphere of the battlefield became even more tense. The drumbeats were getting tighter and tighter, finally... the dense drumbeats merged into a piece!

  Kill!

  Just as the drumbeat reached its climax, just as everyone's heart was ignited with fervent passion by the drumbeat, a thunderous battle cry erupted from the great army behind us!

  Without orders, we have all received instructions during our usual training. Once the regular army shouts to kill, if there are still people who dare not to charge forward, without the enemy killing them, our troops will dispose of them.

  In an instant... all the members of the Hurry-up-to-Die Squad started running quickly, but... this quickness was only relative to them. To us, that speed was almost no different from walking.

  Boom! Boom! Boom...

  Thirty thousand heavily armed infantrymen followed us, marching in unison, with an air of confidence, steadily advancing towards the enemy's unstable phalanx formation.

  As soon as we saw them, we launched a surprise attack, which probably exceeded the enemy's expectations. In the midst of chaos and confusion, the enemy army began to change rapidly, and the vanguard troops were also concentrated together, preparing to start fighting!

  Boom! Boom! Boom boom! Boom boom! Boom boom boom......

  The friendly forces behind us began to gradually accelerate the pace of their footsteps, from slow to fast, and finally sprinted at high speed. However... whether they were moving quickly or slowly, their footsteps were perfectly in sync, showing extremely high training standards. It seems that... Zi Qian Hao is indeed a formidable opponent.

  The distance of 1000 meters in our run, is constantly being shortened, looking at the enemy getting closer and closer, my heart accelerates uncontrollably, restlessly stirring, this is out of control!

  Looking back at the four guys beside me, they've only been running for a short while and are already starting to sweat, which shows just how tense they are!

  600 meters... 500 meters... 400 meters...

  At this moment, the enemy's vanguard also began to move, slowly approaching us. At the same time, the main force of the enemy army also started making preparations for attack, with tens of thousands of crossbowmen taking their positions, waiting for us to enter their range before launching a sudden assault!

  What's the best time to add more essence, around 2 o'clock? Noon? Evening? Midnight? Give me some advice, after all... these essences were voted out by everyone, of course it should be decided by everyone!

  I hope everyone continues to vote, continue to click, and everyone has the opportunity to get the essence! I hope everyone can help me make the book a little higher, and smash it up a bit more, hehe...
