Sword Among Us Chapter 911

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When the entire area to the north of Changjiang received the news of Class One Hall's defense line being destroyed by Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect, then losing the control over ten cities within a short period of time as well as losing tens of thousands of their fighting people, all the people there instantly descended into shock! Almost every organization in the north and the players chose to return to the cities and watched the great purge of the Chinese server from different battlefields.

The series of actions Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect took deep into the territory of the north were really nothing, because this time, they showed their true and ambitious desire in completely swallowing Class One Hall as well as Class One Hall's entire territory in the north.

This was the purge of the greatest faction of power in the north.

It involved some of the other sects in the north as well, and they inevitably received notices from Class One Hall to provide them with support.

All the sects and allied factions who worked together with Class One Hall received messenger pigeons from Class One Hall.

Within the letter was a request for them to immediately mobilize forces to fight against Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect.

The leaders of a few large sects gathered together in a city near Xuancheng.

“This Class One Hall, when we divided resource spots, they gave us very few resources, but when they're in danger, they want us to give our lives for them?”

“Working together to fight against the enemy, my foot. Class One Hall's territory is currently in a mess, and there's no way they can place all their attention on the frontlines. There's no need for me to even say anything, right? They want us to become cannon fodder for them and block Mu Clan as well as Chivalry Sect so that we can buy time for them?”

“What are your thoughts regarding the situation, everyone?”

Someone among them asked.

The others had varying expressions. Some of them smiled coldly, some were nonchalant, and some did not reveal their thoughts on their faces.

“I'm not going to fight this war. We've only enjoyed a few days of peace, and they want us to fight against Mu Clan? Class One Hall is a big organization with a huge business, they'll be fine, but we only have so many people in our sect. All of us are going to die if we fight against Mu Clan.”

“You don't say.”

“Wooden Heights, Dart Tip, both of you were brought to power by relying on Class One Hall, and you're different from us. This is the time for you to show your sincerity toward them,” someone said.

Right when they finished speaking, two sect masters spread their arms in dejectedness and resignation.

“We're willing to, but our subordinates are not willing to.”

“That's right. I only have a handful of powerful players in my hand, but Mu Clan brought an entire army of elites with them this time. If we fight against them, we'll have nothing left. Even if we fight against them three against one, we might not win.”

“Fight against Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect? I'm not mad, you know?”

“Happy is still in Mount Song right now. If he sees my people stand against Mu Clan's forces, I might end up with my headquarters gone.”

In the end, only around ten sects living in the north under Class One Hall chose to send their forces to provide reinforcements. The others were all bark and no bite. In fact, some of them even chose to log off to avoid the war.

The ones who agreed to provide reinforcements were all near Beijing, and they could not immediately provide aid to the frontlines.

In less than half a day, Class One Hall's forces lost and were forced to retreat thirty-one miles to the north. More than thirty cities swiftly fell into Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect's hands.

“Those ungrateful louts!”

When Dream Clouds returned to Beijing, at least one hundred thousand people were trapped in the areas Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect took down at the frontlines.

What caused her even greater exasperation was that the south just sent her information stating that there was an even larger group of Mu Clan members, Chivalry Sect members, and the sects who worked together with these two major powers who were entering the resource points and cities of the fallen areas in an endless stream to help Mu Clan's forces in blocking Class One Hall's members from entering and leaving those areas.

At the same time, Dream Clouds finally felt a wave of helplessness where a strong person would feel when he or she lost their power and was bullied by all sides. She also felt incredibly resigned.

She originally thought that Happy's goal was to break out of her encirclement and that he wanted to use Dragon Saber to intimidate Class One Hall once more.

But what she could not accept was that Happy would mobilize a large number of forces to advance north. They came with an aggressive wave, and their momentum just kept increasing in a magnificent manner. The situation had completely surpassed her control.

The situation was slipping from her grasp!

The one hundred thousand people at the frontlines were destroyed and monitored within a short amount of time, and they cannot continue to fight.

Tens of hundreds of people in the territory were still search for the hiding spots for Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, and the other groups. If she mobilized all of them for the war at that moment, these bombs hidden in the darkness will definitely not hesitate in delivering the most fatal strike behind her back. In fact, they might even press close to Beijing under Happy's lead.

“Happy…” Dream Clouds gritted her teeth, and she was incredibly hesitant and anxious in Beijing's headquarters.

“Hall master!”

“What is it?” Dream Clouds' voice clearly became much colder and sharper.

Evil Wolf froze a little when he entered through the girl.

“The Prophet sent news and said that he has already located the others. One is Little North, one is Red Dust, and the other is Lin Xiao. The three groups are located in…”

Once he stated the trio's locations, not a hint of delight can be detected on Dream Clouds' face. Instead, she sucked in a deep breath and sighed in great anguish. “Happy is much more cunning than I thought.”

She had heard about the three locations Evil Wolf mentioned. They were places that no one will pass through usually, but were famous for being easy to defend while difficult to take out. Unless she had three Hanagos with her, it was impossible for her to defeat these groups of people within a short period of time. If she acted recklessly, she will produce a similarly large number of casualties just like the previous two attacks against Thunderous Battle and Silver Wolf.

“What should we do now? We've found them, but we can't take any action, and the situation at the frontlines is becoming more and more urgent.”

“Leave behind a group of our members to block them, and the rest…” Dream Clouds originally wanted to have everyone return and make preparations to reorganize themselves so that they can head to the frontlines, but when the words reached her mouth, she froze once more and suddenly remembered how Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect's members had been divided into dozens of groups, not just the few groups they found.

There was an even larger group of people who still remained outside her field of vision.

Unless she was able to monitor everyone and send forces twice their number to control them, her tens of thousands of people cannot leave the northern territory, because if they did, they will lose the power to intimidate Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect in their territory.

It was only at that moment that Dream Clouds understood just how powerful Happy's move was. He broke his entire army into different parts, and he can turn them into a whole army at any moment he wanted. Once he successfully created a great battle success with these parts, he managed to hold back a large number of Class One Hall's forces, causing Dream Clouds to only have a handful of people she can actually use.

The northern area was huge, and at that moment, they had already mobilized quite a lot of people from their branches to handle the multiple battlefields.

What caused Dream Clouds greater unease was that ever since Happy left Mount Song, he started advancing to Beijing, and his goal was as clear as day.

Dream Clouds felt as if her limbs were tied together, and at the same time, she also felt as if she cannot breathe, as if she was suffocating.

Happy first split his forces to launch ambushes, then had all these different forces stay in different parts in the north to wait quietly. Then, he appeared personally to set up his might on Mount Song before he started heading to Beijing to drive Class One Hall out of the north. Now, he commanded his entire army to head north.

Class One Hall cannot even take care of their head and tail together, and Happy had even seized their weakness.

Dream Clouds only felt bitter hate burn in her.

It was only at this moment that she noticed Happy's true intentions.

If no accidents happened, when this day was over, they will lose more than fifty cities!

Once night fell, Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect will run even more rampant than before.

The people hidden deep in Class One Hall's territory in the north will have an even better chance in taking action, and the entire north will once again descend into war.

At that moment, Dream Clouds had to face a serious problem!

Destruction!

Under Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect's powerful cooperation, Class One Hall might be devoured bit by bit.

Class One Hall will end up with fewer people, and their territory will become smaller and smaller.

“Hall master.”

Just when Dream Clouds descended into regret she was unable to break free of and started pondering over this matter, Blood Robes suddenly came in from outside, and his usual gentle appearance was gone. In its place was anxiety as well as great uneasiness.

“Happy entered Beijing!”

“So soon?!”

Dream Clouds got up swiftly.

“Based on the information from the Prophet, Happy has already copied the skill Yangzhou's Twin Dragons use to fuse with the horse, and he is much faster than us.” When Evil Wolf said this, he did not continue. He just stared at Dream Clouds and Blood Robes while he waited for them to make a decision.

Should they fight or retreat?

Even though it might seem unbelievable that Class One Hall arrived at this step, that was the truth. They suffered multiple setbacks, and Happy seemed to have been planning this large scale operation for a long time. Class One Hall once stood tall in the sky, but now, they were a rotten tree that swayed in the storm, and they might collapse at any moment.

Dream Clouds remained silent for a few seconds before she stared at Blood Robes with bloodshot eyes. “What's going on this time? Why didn't the person you set next to Happy notice even the slightest thing about such a major operation?”

“I don't understand either. Over the day, she did not pick up her phone and did not even log in. When I called her dorm, her friends said that she was on sick leave. That girl might have already left my side,” Blood Robes said through gritted teeth.

Dream Clouds' expression turned cold. “Hmph! But that's to be expected. Right now, Mu Clan is like a blazing sun, and she's in charge of an entire region herself. Mu Clan's method in buying hearts is indeed great. The hard work we did are all inferior compared to their methods.”

A callous look flashed in Blood Robes' eyes. “All that she obtained will soon vanish.”

Dream Clouds said nothing. She knew what Dream Clouds intended to do, and she did not probe into the issue. She just said impatiently, “Right now, the most important thing is to think of a way to get rid of this disaster. Do you have any methods that will help us through?”

“We're already at this point, and the possibility of us suing for peace with Happy is zero. Besides, we've offended Chivalry Sect too greatly in the past. Even if Mu Clan agrees to it, Chivalry Sect will think of ways to continue with the war, along with Wind Assault Tower, since they have been eyeing this territory for a long time.”

Blood Robes' tone was grave. “Right now, there are only two ways about this. One, we retreat to West Region and completely give up on the north and focus on developing in West Region. After all, we have the desert serving as our barrier over there. There are also wolves and sandstorms over there. It's impossible for Happy to mobilize all his forces to head to West Region to fight against us. Besides, the Persians have already headed there.”

“And the other method is…?”

“We'll force them to retreat. We'll mobilize all our remaining forces to the south and get on southern shores through the coastal area. Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect mobilized quite a lot of people in their operation this time, and their defenses at the rear are definitely weak. We can fight in a war of attrition against them, but the chances of our attack being successful won't be great. But we have Vietnam's Life and Death Fist serving as a garrison for us, and we can make Happy panic a little.”

“It's not that the chances of it being successful is low. It's completely impossible.” Dream Clouds laughed bitterly. “Wind Assault Tower as well as Wind and Rain Alliance didn't join in because they are surely serving as a way of escape for Happy. They prepared to help the two sects to protect their rear, and you've seen the sects in the south while we're at Baokang. They're very devoted to Mu Clan, and they might not stand by and watch. No matter how strong Life and Death Fist is, in the end, he's just one person.”

“Then we can only give up on Beijing and shift to West Region.”

Evil Wolf said nothing. As he listened to Blood Robes and Dream Clouds' analysis, he knew that Class One Hall had truly lost this time.

Dream Clouds was already tempted and was thinking about moving miles away to that place where no living being will want to go!
