Happy, who was far away in the Mongolian enemy camp, did not know just how great of an impact and shock he delivered to the Chinese army with his act of killing Mongolian cavaliers on the plains.
Once night fell, his points shot up to six thousand seven hundred points within less than twenty minutes from his initial thirty-five points. Not only did he manage to seize the throne for most points, he was also far ahead of countless players.
This day was bound to be a sleepless night for many.
But Happy's war achievements still reminded many people that even though the battle from both sides had come to a temporary end because the war drums from both sides had sounded for retreat, this did not mean that they no longer had the chance to obtain points for the day. While the army could order their soldiers around, they could not order the players around.
If the players also operated based on the routine of the warriors in the army to charge at the enemy during battle and return to the camp to rest when the war drums sounded for retreat, they will turn into complete Pere David's deer. They will not be of much use to the war!
The people of the world of martial artists should have their own style in doing things!
They should use their own creativity and freedom and use their own methods to affect the war!
On that night, a large number of Chinese players left the main camp and quietly hid themselves in the plains. Among them was Lu Mingyue.

'So he's just a 100-man commander.. Hmm? This is... ' Once Happy got rid of that extraordinary Mongolian cavalier, he discovered to his surprise that the 100-man commander's axe was not broken when it fell on the ground. When he got rid of the remaining Mongolian cavaliers, he noticed that it was a second-echelon grade one masterpiece. Its damage was at 1, 600, and its attributes were above normal grade one masterpieces.
'They dropped refined weapons straightaway?'
Happy was a little surprised and excited!
Even though one second-echelon grade one masterpiece was nothing in his eyes, successfully refined weapons were still very valuable. As of current, grade one equipment had already become the norm among players, but the market was still far from being saturated with them. There was a large demand for them, and he will have no problem in selling this weapon off for one million.
After all, many people now had the ability to fight for their equipment, and the price for them will naturally drop.
However, since the 100-man commander will drop a second-echelon grade one masterpiece, it proved that the 1, 000-man commander, 10, 000-man commander, and even those generals will definitely drop higher grade equipment that were refined even greater than this!
'This is a good chance... '
"Happy! The main cavalier unit is here!" Yu Yan cried out in surprise not too far away.
The scattered torches shone on the hundreds of Mongolian cavaliers' corpses. The plains returned to its state of dead silence. But soon, a clustered group of light from torches appeared at the horizon, along with flickering black shadows. They charged over with a destruction momentum, and Happy could even vaguely hear two sets of horse hooves leaving into the distance.
He turned his head around to look, thanks to his sensitive hearing.
'Players?'
Happy's heart tensed up. He no longer had the time to guess whether they were friend or foe. He also did not dare to stay for a long time on the spot. He had to make sure that he left this troublesome place before the main cavalier unit arrived in this place.
"Xin! Let's go!"
Without another word, both hastily got on their horses.
"Giddy-up!"
They headed to the opposite direction without turning back.
Fortunately, it seemed like only one group of patrols came over. Aside from the main cavalier unit behind them, no other shadows could be found on the plains. Darkness returned to the area, and it was extremely beneficial for the duo's escape.
After fleeing for a while, when the main cavalier unit arrived at the place where the battle transpired, both of them resolutely put away their steeds and completely vanished from the plains.
*****
"Whoa!" With one shout, the sounds of horse hooves swiftly dwindled.
As a built man in black armor gave the command, more than one thousand cavaliers stopped going forward and remained outside the miserable and chaotic battlefield without moving an inch further.
It was clear that the man in black armor was the leader of the main cavalier unit. Regardless of his presence or his equipment, he was much stronger than the 100-man commander Happy previously killed.
He narrowed his eyes slightly."Go and take a look."
The man in black armor sniffed the strong bloody stench in the air, and he found it hard to believe that in such a short time since the signal flare was fired, less than half of the hundreds of comrades who rushed over here died.
"Yes, sir!"
Dozens of cavaliers with torches in their hands quickly moved out from the group. The endless stream of firelight spread out neatly and quickly lit up a circular area of 328 feet. It also illuminated the hundreds of Mongolian cavaliers who descended into eternal slumber in this place. The countless familiar faces on the corpses were all reflected in the eyes of all those in this cavalier unit.
Their pupils shrank in fear.
"There's a 100-man commander here! He's the captain from the patrol camp!"
When he heard a subordinate of his cry out in surprise, the man in black armor scowled fiercely, and his eyes burned in rage."Those damn Chinese... Have someone come up to me!"
"Here!"
"Send word. Tell the others that there are Chinese forces who have snuck into our army rear. Have the khan send a few elites over!"
"Understood!"
The group of cavaliers quickly went off to carry out their orders.
Right when they left the team, a loud and mighty voice suddenly rose from the back of the group."There's no need for that!"
A huge black shadow jumped over the group like a giant bat before he landed lightly in front of the man in black armor.
He was a man who was in his forties, and he was built. His gaze was electrifying, and he had dashing eyebrows. His face looked like it was chiseled, and he had an awe-inspiring presence about it. There was a lavish looking purple cloak around his shoulders, making him appear incredibly mighty and great!
When the man in the black man saw this person, his expression changed, and he quickly got down his horse."Greetings, military advisor!"
Whoosh!
Almost at the same time, more than one thousand cavaliers got down their horses with a mighty momentum to kneel on one knee on the ground! A loud and neat sound wave spread out far and wide over the dark plains.
"Greetings, demon commander!"
When they finished speaking, the mysterious middle-aged man turned his face around. He was Demon Commander Zhao Deyan, the greatest martial artist from Demon Face Sect, the military adviser for the Mongolian army, and a proper Myth Realm martial artist.
"What clues do you have?" When Zhao Deyan finished speaking, the man in black armor quickly answered.
"My apologies for my ignorance! As of current, we do not have detailed information about the enemies, but we can be certain that our enemies are from the Chinese plains, and most of our comrades were killed in one hit, and there aren't many martial artists from the Chinese plains who came over here."
Zhao Deyan did not say anything else. He took a few steps among the corpses while he swept through the scattered corpses on the ground with a cold gaze. Very soon, he found some clues from the wounds on the corpses.
Most of the Mongolian cavaliers were killed by arrows, some of them were killed by the shock from a fierce and tough palm strike, and some... died from sword slashes.
It was the same as the wounds on the corpses they saw on the way here.
"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms... These are from Shifting Stars or from Heaven and Earth Great Shift. As for the sword technique, he or she attacked very quickly, and I can't tell as of now." With just a few words, Zhao Deyan managed to voice out some information, and he frowned.
"Looks like it's the boy from the Murong Clan..."
"The Murong Clan?"
"Recently, a great talent of the later generation has appeared in the Chinese world of martial artists. He's pretty good, and he's a great problem to the evil cult... If it's him, you won't be of any use over here. All of you, go back! Now!"
Once the main cavalier unit turned around and went back, Zhao Deyan looked away from the starry sky that was decorated by only a few stars, he quickly cast a glance at the two trails of horse hoof tracks in the distance before he laughed coldly."You dare enter deep into the enemy rear right on the first day of the war itself? Youngsters nowadays truly do not know fear!"
When he finished speaking, with one loud whoosh, he vanished from the spot.
The plains returned to silence.
