Chapter 42 - 42 – Attack [2]



"Roger, I will follow the army. Do you have any instructions?" Leo asked as he nodded his head slightly.

’I thought they were going to fight fair and square from the front. I should’ve guessed it. This murim world is different from the normal one.’

Tang Yao and Tang Soso looked at each other and exchanged glances. After a moment, the two smiled together and answered him as one, "Protect me until I reach our destination."

"Consider it done."

The army began organizing itself while making preparations for their journey. Leo and Jessica watched in silence as Tang Clan’s warriors prepared to march through the forest. It was clear that they had a destination in mind already.

’Let’s wait and see.’

After a few minutes, everything was ready, and the army moved forward once more, heading deeper into the forest. They followed a trail leading directly into the heart of the mountainside, where there was only one path between two large rocky hillsides.

As for Tang Yao, he was talking to someone that he recognized. He Junyu, the martial artist that sent a letter to him that day. After they finished their conversation, Tang Yao walked towards Leo who waited patiently nearby and showed him a map that he had drawn in his hand.

"Okay then, this is a map of where we will be going. We’re going to the cliff and ambush the Green Forest Bandit from above." He pointed towards a certain part of the map. "Are you ready?"

Leo nodded at him firmly, "Of course. Let’s go."

There were only ten warriors from Tang Clan included in his team including Tang Yao and Tang Soso. They were going to ambush the enemy with a small but elite force consisting of five marital artists who had reached 5 Stars and six martial artists who had reached 4 Stars.

Even when they hid it, Tang Yao and Tang Soso themselves had reached 6 Stars, although the former was known as 4 Stars while the later was known as 5 Stars genius. It was based on knowledge Leo had from the novel after Jessica reviewed it with him last night. It wasn’t clearly written. But seeing how sly Tang Yao was, he believed it to be true.

Both of them looked confident and determined as they walked out of the camp with Leo following closely behind them. The forest was thick and full of shrubbery around them, blocking their vision and hiding the sunlight that shone brightly above them. It felt like being inside a dark tunnel with only the sunlight shining through tiny gaps in between the trees.

"Let’s move faster." Tang Yao said and headed towards a path leading to the cliff. "I can feel a fluctuation of energy in the distance. The battle will start soon."

With that said, they sped up their pace as they ran deeper into the forest. Everyone could hear the sound of metal clashing against each other from far away. They seemed to be coming closer and closer by the minute, getting louder by the second.

"It started." Jessica whispered to Leo as she looked around, "The allied army clashed against the enemy’s army."

"Right. How’s the situation?"

"It’s a siege battle. The enemy has built walls on the top of the cliff while sending people to kill those who try to climb up." Jessica reported after scanning the battlefield with her smart lens through the camera they installed yesterday.

"The enemy seems to have anticipated their movement and prepared many men to counter them. It’s as if they knew what Tang Clan was going to do."

’As if they knew what Tang Clan was going to do, huh?’

That sounded suspicious. But Leo didn’t pay attention to it. What’s done was done. Nothing could change the current situation anymore. He just had to finish his job.

"What about our allies?"

"The enemy also sent their elite fighters to fight against our allies. I don’t know their level but they aren’t pushed back from the attacks. It’s amazing, Leader. It’s like I am watching a movie. Some people could send a Qi bullet and destroy a wall in one shot." Jessica described what happened with a wide grin on her face, "Green Forest Bandit is actually pretty strong."

"Yeah... Just like what I expected from one of the strong forces in the Central Plains."

Leo nodded absentmindedly as he looked at Tang Yao ahead of him. They were running silently through the forest without making a sound. Their running speed might be faster than a horse in a full gallop.

It only took them a few minutes before they arrived at the cliff’s edge where they could see the battlefield below them. The green banner with the dragon symbol was fluttering proudly amidst the chaos. Many people were fighting each other to the death as blood splattered everywhere while more were climbing up the wall and exchanging blows with people wearing black armor and blue hanbok.

Some rough men could be seen battling each other in the valley. They wore no armor and wielded long swords with a blade made from metal and wearing leather as protection. A few of them seemed to be wounded already while others had already fallen dead on the ground, their bodies covered in blood.

’Their base is actually decent.’ Leo thought as he saw a massive wooden structure built on top of a steep cliff surrounded by a wall made of stone. ’I guess even though they’re bandits they still care about their lives.’

A large building sat at the center of the compound where men wearing black armor stood guard. Several women and children entered the building frequently with pale faces.

’Ah... it’s really happening.’

Seeing that scene reminded him of the tragic plot of the novel he had read in the past.

’These people...’

Leo sighed as he looked at the scene unfolding below him with pity in his eyes. Still, strong survives while weak perishes. It was only natural for the strong to conquer over the weak in this world.

’Sigh...’

He didn’t know why he was feeling sad when he saw it. But Leo just shook his head and decided not to think about it too deeply anymore.

"We will attack right now." Tang Yao said suddenly while taking out a sword from his waist and unsheathing it with one swift motion. "Come."

Tang Soso also took out her weapon, a double-edged saber with a gold hilt and dark red scabbard decorated with a dragon engraved on it. A green Qi covered the blade as she held it firmly in her hand, ready to attack at any moment.

They descended the cliff by jumping. There wasn’t even a single shred of hesitation in their actions as they leaped off the edge and plunged straight into the chaos below them, landing right next to the enemy base.

"Charge!"

Tang Yao yelled out before rushing forward along with Tang Soso and the rest of the Tang Clan’s members following closely behind him.

Their movements were fast and agile as they dashed towards the enemy soldiers guarding the gate of their base while cutting down anyone who blocked their way without mercy.

Various Qi attacks struck against their bodies, sending them flying backward as blood flowed freely from their wounds, staining their clothes crimson red.
