Chapter 827: Pursuit, Merits in Battle

The activities over there involving Kai Xin actually caught someone’s attention.
The closest was the man wielding the black-gold long sword. He rushed into the battlefield almost at the same time as Kai Xin, but while Kai Xin chose the area around the general’s guards, where the fighting was fiercest, the other man opted for a region further away.
That man also intended to avoid drawing attention…
After all, the general in his bright silver-white armor was far too eye-catching, and the area hit hardest by the Mongol cavalry was also the most dangerous. That’s why he hesitated to get too close for a while.
It was for this reason that he failed to trigger the mission to protect the general.
If he had known that completing this mission would earn him merit points equivalent to killing a hundred Mongol cavalrymen, he would likely regret it greatly.
However!
A casual glance at what was happening over there with Kai Xin still shocked him greatly.
Although the battlefield was chaotic with enemies and allies mixed together, the fighting over there was extremely intense, and with a skilled commander capable of leading thousands of cavalrymen present, it was hard not to notice.
In particular, the scene of Kai Xin swiftly killing dozens of Mongol cavalrymen who were trying to escort the general to escape left a deep impression on him—even at the cost of taking an axe strike himself.
“Amazing.”
The man with the black-gold long sword guessed that Kai Xin must have triggered the mission.
But earlier, when the general was surrounded by hundreds of Mongol cavalrymen, he too dared not approach—because once surrounded by Mongol cavalry, even the most skilled would be trapped and killed.
Realizing there was a top-tier expert on the same battlefield, the man with the black-gold long sword instinctively kept his distance, both for safety and to earn more merit points.
Kai Xin, of course, had no idea he had already been regarded as an outsider. Focused solely on earning points, he pursued without hesitation the group led by the man with the mixed-metal staff—since the charge, they had lost less than five hundred men. Though in the heart of the enemy forces, they still possessed astonishing combat strength.
However…
If this group joined forces to rescue those intercepted by the Central Plains cavalry, they would likely launch another devastating charge.
Kai Xin cared nothing about the fate of the Central Plains soldiers around him, but he also didn’t want them to unite and threaten his chances of earning merits.
“I need to deal with the leader first.”
After locking onto his target, Kai Xin silently slipped out of the crowd of Central Plains soldiers and pursued the Mongol cavalry led by the man with the mixed-metal staff, who were fighting to break through.

The man with the mixed-metal staff had no idea he had already transformed from a hunter to prey. Sitting atop his warhorse, he shouted at his men to charge forward and join the nearest group. In such chaos, how could their speed of charging through the fray compare to that of Happy, who was giving it his all? In the blink of an eye, they caught up from behind. Several Mongol cavalrymen at the back grew alert, turned to see Happy, and immediately drew their bows to shoot… Happy didn’t even bother to dodge; he simply activated “Rotation of the Stars,” sending the arrows back to where they came from. Ugh! Ugh! The Mongol cavalrymen, who never expected their arrows to turn back, stared in disbelief as they all rolled off their horses in unison. The commotion behind them soon attracted the attention of more Mongol cavalrymen. Realizing they were being chased by skilled martial artists from the Central Plains, their expressions changed. Dozens of them shouted and turned their horses around, forming a spear formation to charge! Unfortunately, thought Happy inwardly. If they had continued to chase behind the group, using bows or axes, it would have been better—under “Rotation of the Stars,” they could maximize their speed in gaining combat merits. But now that they were turning around to charge, it would be troublesome! Well, anyway. Facing the charge of dozens of cavalrymen with astonishing momentum, Happy neither retreated nor avoided. Instead, he accelerated abruptly and vanished like a ghost… “Over there!” The Mongol cavalrymen were more alert than ordinary martial artists. The moment they appeared, several sharp blade flashes sliced through the air. The sensitivity of the Nine Yang Divine Skill was far greater than theirs. The few Mongol cavalrymen closest to him had barely attacked when a bloody hole appeared on their foreheads, and the blade flashes quickly faded in the air. Happy reappeared near several corpses… With a flick of his Gentleman Sword, a dozen blade flashes, like scattered stars, precisely pierced the bodies of the Mongol cavalrymen charging at him. Using their horses as obstacles, Happy began methodically eliminating the remaining cavalrymen. However, at the speed of “Heavenly Thunder Annihilation Style,” even his slow pace appeared like a stormy rush to others, filled with suffocating urgency. In less than half a minute, over forty people were slain by Happy’s sword. Over 700 points were added to his account, bringing him slight surprise—among the Mongol cavalrymen was a hundred-man leader and two ten-man leaders… Picking up the rank equipment dropped by the hundred-man leader from the ground, Happy’s gaze toward the man with the mixed-metal staff grew even more intense—what equipment would a ten-thousand-man leader drop? Without hesitation, he stepped forward and chased after them at lightning speed…

The Mongolian commanders have always been brave and fierce, and the man with the Mixed Gold Staff is no exception—he led the charge at the forefront…
After chasing for over ten minutes, Happy managed to kill more than 300 enemies through intermittent attacks before finally catching up!
Unfortunately, the man with the Mixed Gold Staff managed to reunite with another group of his subordinates, expanding their forces to nearly a thousand!
At the same time, players from both sides joined the battle, unleashing arrows, hidden weapons, and poisons in large numbers, further complicating an already chaotic battlefield.
The man with the Mixed Gold Staff was unlucky too… His intimidating presence was reduced after being intercepted, hundreds were lost while trying to surround the Central Plains general, and hundreds more were lost during the reunion. Now, nearly a thousand of them were surrounded by tens of thousands of troops.
Moreover, these troops used spear soldiers as a shield, hiding behind them and launching attacks from a distance to prevent them from getting close.
The Mongolian cavalry were killed one after another, drastically reducing their numbers.
The martial arts experts from the Central Plains fought fiercely, eager not to miss out on glory, shooting arrows or throwing hidden weapons at the densest parts of the crowd as fast as possible.
Many didn’t even know who had killed the Mongolian cavalry.
After fighting blindly for half a day, no system notification indicating earned battle points came through.
Only a few focused individuals sought the final fatal blow—only those who dealt a fatal strike to the Mongolian cavalry could gain battle points.
Seeing this, Happy became frustrated…
Arrows and hidden weapons were fired in dense waves like swarms of locusts. Not only did Happy not want to reveal his identity in front of so many people, but even if he had no objection, he lacked the confidence to break through such a fierce barrage.
Fortunately, “Convergence Finger” was also a long-range attack method with devastating power…
Pushing his way to the front of the crowd, Happy quietly became part of the ruthless army!
Yet as he attacked, he kept a close eye on the movements of that commander.
This guy not only had high-tier equipment but also boasted the battle points equivalent to a hundred ordinary Mongolian cavalrymen. Surely many in the crowd were targeting him.
