Chapter 822 - Daylight

Chapter 822: Daylight
[I’m already safe. What about you?]
[I’m currently still near the enemy camp. There are quite a number of patrolling cavaliers and reconnoiterers around. Zhao Deyan won’t let me go so easily. You should hurry up and leave. I’ll think of a way to go back.]
When Happy received Yu Yan’s messenger pigeon, he instantly released a breath of relief before he took some time to write a response. Then, he continued his state of becoming one with his horse.
He will need to use up quite a lot of qi to maintain his state of being one with his horse. Even if he activated Nine Yang Divine Skill, Happy still found it a little hard to maintain that situation. In less than two minutes, he had already eaten three Small Reversion Pills, and only then was he able to have his qi slowly return to Life and Death Realm.
‘Forcibly increasing my horse’s movement speed is equivalent to activating Petite Dragon constantly!’
But Happy did not dare stop.
The skills Zhao Deyan displayed had far surpassed his expectations. He originally thought that since he could safely escape from Zhu Yuyan’s hands, he will have an easier time against the other evil cult elites. He did not expect that Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style will be completely useless against Zhao Deyan.
‘Aside from that strange soft armor, Zhao Deyan himself is also not easy to deal with. Myth Realm elites… I’ve underestimated them a little too much.’
While Happy lamented about this, he also noticed that he had been a little too arrogant recently.
At the end of the day, he had only been able to kill Jinjiu and Yinshi in Sky Demon Secret Cave because of the advantages provided in terms of terrain and Nine Yang Divine Skill. If he fought against them outside, he might not be able to win against them so easily.
Even though his sword technique, body fortification, and lightness skill improved, and he had even stolen Ten Thousand Swords, it was still not enough for him to reduce the distance between him and a Myth Realm martial artist.
When he thought of this, Happy could not help but relocate his strength in the spectrum of power. He also began assessing the difficulty in this quest.
‘Zhao Deyan… He’s a reputable elite among the evil cult martial artists, and he also has the important position of the Mongolian Army’s military adviser. This means that if I kill Zhao Deyan, I can get two thousand points as my reward, since he is reputable among the evil cultists. I can also get another five thousand points because his status in the military is the same as a general. I can get seven thousand points from him.’
If Happy were in his previous life, he will only be able to deduce things up to this point, but once he did so many quests in his current life and had a general outline of certain settings in the system, he knew that the system will not let the players take advantage of any loopholes in the system, which was why every setting in the game had always been very balanced and fair.
The number of points provided by the war achievements will directly reflect a person’s strength.
This meant that if Wan Wan’s combat prowess was two thousand points, then since Zhao Deyan’s combat prowess was right up to seven thousand points, his total points was inferior only to Hu Bilie, who was worth one hundred thousand points, and Bi Xuan, Shi Zhixuan, and Empress Yin, who were worth twenty thousand points.
Hu Bilie was a mighty emperor of his generation. While he was not very strong and might just be at the level of a general, when he gathered to him all the evil cultists and general-level martial artists, he was still an unshakeable existence!
But Happy gained some clues based on his probing this time.
The generals in the Mongolian army were all elites who were worth five thousand points. Their strength might not be stronger than Wan Wan and the others, but they were definitely dangerous people.
‘I’ll have to tell the others to be careful.

Even though he had not activated the quest for players to bother the flanks, the five thousand point worth combat prowess still caused Happy to be alert. The Mongolian generals were only two thousand points less than Zhao Deyan in terms of combat prowess, and they might be at the level of Jinjiu and Yinshi. They will have to be careful about them.

The large screen in the underground base showed that Zhao Deyan relied on the signals given by the reconnoiterers to chase after Happy for a while, but the distance between each signal fired was just further and further away from him, and after chasing after Happy for half a day, he obtained nothing accept seeing a trail of corpses belonging to patrolling cavaliers and reconnoiterers. When he saw that the sky was brightening, he was finally forced to give up, and with a dark look, he returned to the main camp.
Some of the people in the base remained silent.

Even Happy can do nothing to Zhao Deyan. Looks like the system has indeed given full consideration to all unstable variables. Even if we don’t send out the four great martial artists, the Mongolian army is still as steady as a fortress. There’s no need to even mention the Chinese army. The elites there are as numerous as clouds. There are hundreds of martial artists guarding the rear, and there is no one from the Mongolian army who dares take up the quest to investigate the enemy rear.
The glasses man took off his glasses and reminded the employees around him.
Even if there is still someone who continues to gain points at the enemy rear, they will not be able to bring any surprises or extra forces for the main attack twenty-nine days later. I think that we can announce an end to the field supervision for this particular stage. What do you think?

The group of employees discussed with each other before they nodded.
Once he obtained his answer, the glasses man released a sigh of relief, as if a great burden had been removed from his shoulders.

Since that’s the case, let’s turn off the monitor system and rest.

When he heard this, the manager raised his hand expressionlessly and tapped his wristwatch.
Beep!
The images on the screen instantly vanished, and the monitor system was shut off.

Li Mei, let’s go drink coffee over there—


I only drink tea.
A certain woman turned around calmly.

As expected of Li Mei. Your tastes are indeed extraordinary. Let’s go together.

Li Mei said nothing.

With the skill of fusing with his horse attached to him, Happy was not afraid of running into people at the level of Zhao Deyan either. Once he restored his qi, he did not immediately return to the main camp. After all, the sky had begun to gradually turn bright. While it was still not completely bright, he could see that the number of patrolling cavaliers had slowly increased in the direction of the main camp.
It was not really necessary for him to return right now!
Besides, he will also end up wasting a lot of time.
Even though he could get more than one thousand points if he handed in his quest, Happy did not want to miss the chance of intercepting some Mongolian cavaliers here and test his ability in fighting against the main cavalier unit alone.
Thud thud thud thud!
The patrolling cavaliers who passed by swiftly noticed the man and horse galloping through the plains, and they rushed toward them.

A Chinese!


Kill him!

Since they were not far away from their main camp, these patrolling cavaliers were not as cowardly as they were when Happy ran into them during the day yesterday. Not only did not turn away, all of them increased their speed and rushed at him.
There was no need to even talk about how things ended. The small group of patrolling cavaliers ended up laying on the ground to become food for the eagles. To Happy, the only change was that his points had increased by fifty.
Once he got rid of the patrolling cavaliers, a low and long honk from a honk came from the distance.
Boom! Boom!
The ground trembled slightly.
Happy did not even need to ask to know that the Mongolian cavaliers had already come out from the main camp, but he did not know how many of them came out.
Ten minutes later, Happy’s face turned pale.
A thick, black line quickly surged forth from the direction of the horizon, and following its wake was the ground rumbling madly. They were all cavaliers, and they were coming at him with the force of an avalanche.
Without another word, Happy turned tail and fled.
Even though Happy believed that he was strong and could fight against a middle-size or large group of cavaliers, this was just… The cavaliers that came charging at him from the horizon numbered to at the very least ten thousand, and no matter how strong Shifting Stars was, there was still a limit to the number of arrows it could shift around.
With so many cavaliers around, Happy might end up dying if they fired just half of their arrows.
Happy finally experienced just how insignificant was a person’s strength when he was alone at the battlefield.
He activated the skill that allowed him to fuse with his horse again, and Happy fled in the direction ahead of the cavaliers with a speed that made him look as if he was flying!
When he traveled dozens of miles, orders shot out from among the cavaliers who filled the entire area behind him on the now bright plains. Then, the cavaliers split into different groups that ran into different directions. Happy’s eyes lit up at that moment.
His chance was here!
