Chapter 308: No Pardon

“It’s not an NPC; it seems to be a player!”
“How is that possible?”
“He came out of a cabin! Could it be that this kid is working with the fleet?”
The appearance of the mysterious man, along with his attire that far surpassed that of countless players, made the players on Reed Marsh pause for a moment. Though they said nothing, every gesture revealed the confidence and grace of a master!
Those who rushed forward stopped abruptly, staring at him intently. From his Yellow Dragon archer’s robes, golden bracers, Yellow Dragon boots, and conical hat, to the sword in its scabbard that seemed nothing short of extraordinary, their expressions grew more solemn. His calm demeanor as he stood atop the ship’s wing, facing numerous martial arts experts, left them at a loss, not knowing what to do.
That’s how people are!
They always rush to the front when faced with good opportunities. But when faced with unknown danger, their first thought is to send others forward.
The moment the conical hat covered the mysterious man’s face, many female players were captivated, forgetting the purpose of their journey. Secretly, some people quietly left.
Not for any other reason—Murong Family’s ships were already a tough opponent. If they were commanded by NPCs, it might be manageable, but if it were players, the battle would surely be even more brutal.
However, this brief pause did not stop the attacks from other directions on Reed Marsh! Countless arrows were fired from the crowd toward the other ships, with the sound of clanging arrows filling the air. Many players, under the cover of the archers’ fierce fire, broke through the ships’ defenses, approaching them closely or even taking to the air to invade the ships.
Frowning, Happy quickly disappeared from the ship’s wing without a word. Using the “Illusion Demon Movement” at full speed, he moved like a flash between the ships, arriving in moments at one of the ships under the heaviest attack.
Originally, Xu Hong’s ship had lost many fighters due to the attacks by Water Scabies, making it the weakest in terms of defense. Happy intended to share the pressure on the lead ship, but unexpectedly, everything there was fine while chaos erupted here first.
“I hope nothing happens there for now!”
For now, Happy could only rely on Xu Hong. As an executor of the Murong Family, he should possess some strength.

They landed on this ship. Although there hadn’t yet been the overwhelming situation of countless players disembarking, several of the ship’s guards were already lying behind a burly man wielding twin axes, while the others had abandoned their crossbows and were desperately resisting the attacks from martial artists landing from all sides, protected only by their metal armor.
“Ah!”
“That old man is fierce! Kill him first!”
Amidst the cries of alarm, no one noticed Happy’s arrival. Dozens of martial artists were thrown into the river or fell back onto the shore from the second floor, only to quickly stand up again and urge more people to attack the old man in fine robes on the second floor.
The old man’s gaze was cold, yet he remained unafraid!
“A bunch of traitors and thieves!”
With a furious roar, he used his bare hands to move effortlessly among those skilled in the Mysterious Realm, occasionally sending people flying off the ship with his astonishing strength.
The situation wasn’t leaning in favor of one side at all.
“Haha!”
“Again! More!!”
“This money is easy to make! Haha!”
The man with twin axes had clearly received a generous reward for killing several guards and was now charging toward two more guards on the deck, laughing heartily.
Whoosh!
Just as he reached the two guards, a sound of wind cutting through the air came from beside him. The guards frowned. “Trying to steal from me?” With a swift motion, he swung his axe back at them without hesitation.
“Lao Si, be careful!!”
A few people who had just jumped onto the ship happened to witness this and shouted in warning.
It was too late…
The black axe, slicing through the air, spun once but missed its target. The burly man’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly realized the situation was bad. He quickly scanned the surroundings, and out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a man wearing a conical hat, his face obscured. Calmly, one hand held the hilt while the other rested on the sword’s grip, and suddenly, a stunning sword glow appeared—it was clearly the classic…
Sword drawing stance!!
“Cough!!”
With a pleasant sound of a sword being drawn, the burly man staggered back three steps, leaving a series of cracks on the deck, yet he remained unharmed.
Happy stepped back three times, staring at the burly man’s bleeding mouth and armor, letting out a barely audible sigh.
To withstand 80% of the power of the “Seven-Star Sword Technique” and still survive—no wonder he could kill so many guards so quickly. Indeed, among these people, there were some truly skilled experts!
Unbeknownst to him, the burly man across from him was already in utter terror…

Wearing Black Bear Silver Armor that increased defense by 600 points, combined with the superior protective aura of his eighth-level cultivation, and by activating his Mysterious Realm state, his defense reached over 1,500. Even facing several masters at the Mysterious Realm level, he could handle them effortlessly. Yet, on this ship, he was injured by a single sword strike from a strange man!

“Are you alright?”

Five men and women appeared beside the burly man. Seeing blood flowing from his mouth, their expressions changed, and their gazes toward the mysterious man in the hat became even more solemn.

“Who are you…?”

“I have no time for your nonsense.” Happy glanced around. The situation was becoming increasingly critical, so his tone turned much colder: “Those who want to live must leave the ship. Otherwise, death will be the only outcome!”

These words were not just directed at those six people but at all martial artists attacking the ship!

A few men and women who had just entered the ship happened to hear Happy’s fierce words and turned to look. “Heh! Interesting… There’s actually a player here.”

“No mercy? What boldness!”

“Come on, pretty boy, let your skills be tested by your sister…” One of the flamboyantly dressed women swayed her hips, took a few steps toward him, smiling flirtatiously and in a teasing tone, clearly interested in Happy, who wore a hat and had an extraordinary aura.

But!

Joking was clearly the wrong time and place.

As fast as the wind, Happy appeared behind the woman. The martial artists who had been talking paled, unable to see Happy’s movements at all…

Before they could raise their weapons, blood gushed from their throats and hearts.

With the speed and suddenness of the Illusion Demon Technique, coupled with the speed and lethality of the Seven Stars Sword Technique, it was impossible for these martial artists at the Fate Realm to resist!

Their protective auras were no more solid than thin paper in the face of the Guardian Divine Sword and the Seven Stars Sword Technique, which could inflict over 2,400 points of damage…

“Thud!”

Without stopping, Happy stepped forward and rushed toward the ship’s wing. Only then did the sound of bodies falling to the ground come from behind him. The six men and one woman who had spoken mockingly all lay dead in pools of blood.
