Chapter 56: Sacrifice And Madness

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Cha Na’s surprise assault caught Lu Wu and Bei Li completely by surprise. When they arrived at the battlefield, the war had already begun.

When the two powerful forces collided into each other, waves of players and Yin soldiers were knocked down to the ground. With that, the bloodbath began.

Faced with Cha Na’s army which equaled them in numbers, the players were having a hard time defending on their own. They seemed to be losing in a one-sided massacre.

However, the players were utterly unfazed by the situation and attacked madly as they followed their comrades ahead.

As more and more members fell, the players’ camp was pushed backward by Cha Na’s army, slowly approaching the center of the Mansion of the Dead.

Cha Na sneered at the sight that was unfolding. Just as he had expected, this alien race would not be able to withstand any attack from him.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The sound of battle drums was heard again. A rain of blood started falling from the sky. The Yin soldiers with bloodshot eyes cried excitedly at the sky.

“Kill! Leave no survivors!”

With Cha Na’s command echoing in the air, every Yin soldier’s eyes were crazed with bloodlust. Together, they pounced on the players again.

“Commander, there are too many of them. What should we do!?” Li Tianxia shouted at Wu Guoyi after cutting down a Yin soldier with his sword.

“Kill!” Wu Guoyi replied simply and charged ahead again. His battle axe danced around frantically, killing many Yin soldiers.

This is the first time the players encountered a real war. They could not adapt to this sort of extreme environment but they fought fearlessly, knowing that their base camp, Mansion of the Dead was just behind them. They were willing to give up their lives to protect it.

As their comrades continued to fall, it fueled the anger burning at the bottom of the players’ hearts and their attacks became increasingly vicious. Under their ferocious momentum, Cha Na’s army started depleting as well.

Cha Na’s expression froze for a moment when he saw this happen before him. This was not what he expected. The fall of the player’s comrades should have despaired the others, but it seemed like they were madder than before.

He only had 100,000 men, so the rising death toll distressed him greatly. Finally, he could not take it anymore. He let out an angry growl and jumped into the air, turning into a ferocious, muscular giant and charged toward the players.

“That traitor Cha Na is coming!”

“Prepare to die!”

The appearance of Cha Na drove the players crazier. Together, they swarmed toward Cha Na.

“You bunch of scum!” Cha Na bellowed angrily. He slammed his enormous palm on the ground as he approached the players.

The force of his palm left a large pit on the ground instantly. Every player in the area was smashed to pieces by the huge force.

Lu Wu and Bei Li spectated the war with sullen expressions. The players’ camp had a very slim chance to win this battle.

At that moment, strings of messages started to appear in Lu Wu’s mind.

“Master, Lu Mo requests to fight. I am willing to kill that traitor Cha Na and restore my father’s glory!”

“Master, Fatty Li requests to fight. I am willing to kill Cha Na and restore glory to the King of Beiqi.”

“Master, Master Qu wishes to fight. I am willing to kill Cha Na and restore glory to the King of Beiqi”

……

Lu Wu was stunned by the number of requests appearing in his mind from several dozen NPCs.

These NPCs had regarded the memories implanted during their creation as their own true memories. They were once subordinates of the King of Beiqi and therefore had the same hatred toward Cha Na.

Lu Wu glanced at the players who were fighting hard in the bloodbath and his gaze became more determined than ever!

“Requests granted!”

Receiving Lu Wu’s command, Lu Mo’s eyes flashed with deep hatred as he leaped from the Mansion of Dead toward the battlefield. The other NPCs followed his lead and hurried toward the same direction.

Cha Na’s power was so great that almost no one could stop him. Facing his vicious slaughtering, the players were facing a challenge they had never encountered before.

Cha Na’s patience was burning out as he was continuously attacked by the players. He inhaled deeply and spat out burning hot hellfire from his mouth.

The hellfire was overbearing. Once a player was contaminated, he would be burned to a puff of dark smoke and forced to leave the game.

As the hellfire spread rapidly, player casualties continued to rise.

At the moment of crisis, dozens of figures appeared out of thin air.

They stood in front of the players and defended against Cha Na’s hellfire together, saving the players from a fatal attack.

The appearances of these figures shocked the players. They never expected the NPCs to help with the war.

At that moment, Lu Mo and several others were assisted by Lu Wu’s soul power. Although their own strength was fueled to the maximum, they could never reach Cha Na’s level due to the limits of their foundation. They were obviously ready to give up their lives for this battle.

Cha Na looked at Lu Mo and the others mockingly. Then, he raised his fist and smashed it forward forcefully. Immediately, hellfire gushed out from the ground and spread ahead rapidly.

“Leave!” Lu Mo looked back while struggling and shouted at the players who were still rooted to the ground.

In Lu Mo’s memories, the players were real. Just like himself, they were descendants of Beiqi. He was not willing to let them sacrifice in vain.

“I said leave!” Lu Mo shouted again. His face, red from hellfire burn, was ferocious and determined.

“Brother Lu, we will fight with you!” the players were determined and refused to leave. They resumed their series of attacks toward Cha Na.

As the players resumed their onslaught, Cha Na hardened his ruthless heart and increased the intensity of the hellfire in his mouth. It was getting harder for Lu Mo and the other players to hold their defenses.

Amidst the burning hellfire, Lu Mo and the others grew weaker, and their soul power would soon be exhausted.

Looking forward at Cha Na, Lu Mo’s eyes flashed with a glimpse of hatred. He then glanced backward at the players who came for support regardless of danger and he felt a surge of warmth flowing from the bottom of his heart.

They are here to fight for my father’s glory, I can’t let them down!

Having thought that, Lu Mo gathered all his power in his palm and smacked behind himself.

Giant energy waves rose and forced the incoming players to retreat, “Leave us! Live and avenge us!”

“Leave and avenge us!” Fatty Chef also directed all his strength to push the players back. The players were once again pushed backward by several yards.

“Don’t forget the skills I taught you. Live on! You are the hope of Beiqi!” with a smile, Master Qu used the remaining of this strength to push away the players.

……

The hellfire finally broke through the barricade formed by Lu Mo and the others, igniting and burning them. Even in the midst of the burning hellfire, their eyes remained hopeful as they looked at the remaining players.

The players were touched by the scene in front of them.

They remembered as clear as day Big Brother Lu who was like a neighborhood brother to them. He would read them stories, talked and listened to them with all his heart.

They also remembered Fatty Chef, who loved to joke but could also cook the most delicious meals ever.

They too remembered Master Qu, a tutor who was stern and reserved but had taught them attentively and relentlessly.

……

The sacrifices of those familiar faces left the players dumbstruck.

As the bloody rain fell upon their faces, their expressions were dazed as they felt like they had lost something.

Once again, they turned toward Cha Na and his army. This time, their fury was unleashed without reservation.
