Chapter 823: Praise from the Emperor

The cavaliers who came from the direction of the main camp spread through the land, and there were more than fifty thousand of them . When they spread out, they still looked incredibly magnificent, and each battalion consisted of around five thousand cavaliers!

The armored cavaliers thundered against the ground, and the ground trembled!

While he fled before the main cavalier unit, Happy felt incredibly gloomy .

Even though five thousand cavaliers did not give off a presence as if they could spread through the land, the momentum that came charging at him fiercely was still very destructive, and it was not one where one person or a few people could hope to withstand .

Happy continued riding forward .

He rode in front of a battalion of cavaliers who were the closest to his side . He was neither too close nor too far away from them .

At that moment, Happy was already not far away from the Chinese camp .

He perked his ears, and he could even hear the faint horn blares coming from the horizon in the distance . This was the sign that he was already very close to the Chinese camp!

If he paid close attention, he could even see the hoof prints from the horses on the plains that had not vanished, and even though they were scattered all over the place, all of them pointed to the main camp .

It was clear that someone had been lingering around this place just now, but had been scared away beforehand by the cavalier battalion behind Happy .

‘I heard that the intensity of a battalion on the first day is just around one thousand to two thousand cavaliers . Am I really so unlucky that they still refuse to split up even now?’

Happy will occasionally turn his head around to check the situation of the Mongolian cavaliers behind him .

He originally thought that the five thousand cavaliers behind him will continue splitting up, and hence, he did not expect that even after he had been fleeing for more than ten minutes, the cavaliers behind him still did not show any signs of dividing any further .

‘Am I supposed to compete with other people for them?’ Even though Happy was confident that he could get most of the points, he was not used to displaying his full strength in front of others .

Regardless of whether it was Shifting Stars, Arhat Body, or Ten Thousand Swords, he did not want to show them off in front of too many people . After all, the martial arts in the Chinese plains countered each other .

Once others knew of all his tricks, he will no longer be strong, and the mysterious veil about him will be revealed, just like One Emperor .

The One Emperor in his previous life seldom showed off his skills in front of others . Hence, in Happy’s eyes, he was mysterious, powerful, and unfathomable, just like an undefeatable god of war .

But in this life, One Emperor appeared too many times in front of him, and Happy’s understanding of him increased . Happy also pondered over his techniques one by one, which also allowed him to form corresponding strategies against them, causing him to gradually become less wary of him . And ever since the battle at the summit of Mount Tai, Happy was finally able to catch up to One Emperor, who had been building up his prestige in his heart for four years .

Happy longed for opponents, but he did not want his opponents to learn of all his skills .

At that moment, a mighty and awe-inspiring system notification spread through the world .

“By the will of the gods, His Majesty will now declare his orders!

“Commander Langye of the Embroidered Uniform Guards has been ordered by General Luo to enter deep into the enemy camps, and he has successfully intercepted the Mongolian army’s supply route! He burned dozens of food supplies belonging to the Mongolian army and destroyed a supply unit protected by one thousand people! He has committed his first meritorious service since the war began, and His Majesty has decided to give him a special reward! He will now make an exception of the rules and promote him to a Class Six Official! The marshall has also given him an additional reward by promoting him to the rank of a senior-rank captain! He is allowed to stay at the borders to continue killing enemies!”

At the same time, almost all Chinese players heard the system notification, and all of them were flabbergasted .

‘He actually managed to find the Mongolian army’s supply route and even destroyed it on the first day?! That guy… his luck is so good…’

But what caused many of the sects to be shocked was his reward as a Class Six Official and a senior-rank captain .

Many of the players were still fighting to earn points to get the position of a junior-rank captain and middle-rank captain, but Langye had managed to get the position of a senior-rank captain right on the first day . That was an important position where he got to lead more than six hundred people . As long as he could form a cavalier unit, he could trigger the quest to harass the enemy flank and even get many of the quests that were still not revealed to others yet .

Happy said nothing, but he instantly scowled .

“The marshal has given his orders!”

But before the shock caused by Langye spread out, the loud system notification rang in everyone’s ears again in an awe-inspiring manner .

“Golden Saber Constable Violent Wind and Bloody Rain of Six Doors has received orders from General Yuan to head to the enemy camp, and he has successfully assassinated one of Hu Bilie’s majors! He managed to escape unscathed with the major’s head! The marshal has promoted him to the position of a senior-rank captain, and he is allowed to continue staying at the borders to kill enemies!”

The heroes in the Chinese world of martial artists instantly burst into commotion, and the crowd was now in complete ruckus .

First, Langye obtained the reward of being promoted to a senior-rank captain, and now, the strongest Golden Saber Constable in China, Violent Wind and Bloody Rain, also obtained the title of a senior-rank captain . It caused many people to feel gloomy and dejected .

That included Happy . Even he was stunned for a moment .

‘Two senior-rank captains…’

One of them was in Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the other was from Six Doors .

‘They must have received information from the imperial court, and they benefited from the situation . But the person who managed to assassinate a major is already very good . ’

When he registered what happened, Happy was slightly shocked .

At that moment, galloping sounds could be heard thundering ahead of him .

The people from the Chinese camp finally arrived!

When he cast a glance at the faint black line that appeared at the horizon ahead of him, Happy frowned slightly . He knew that there were definitely countless Chinese players following behind the Chinese army .

‘…Looks like I must fight with everything I have today . ’ Happy sighed, and a hint of resignation flashed in his eyes .

He did not think that in the end, he will still be unable to avoid competing against other people for points .

Even though it was not impossible for him to hand over this group of cavaliers, he will definitely face competition in the cavalier battalions in the other directions as well, and he might not necessarily gain any benefits even if he went to the enemy camp . In fact, he might even end up running all over the place because Zhao Deyan decided to chase him again .

Besides, if the two senior-rank captains had not appeared to cause him a shock, he might still need to ponder over this, but now, the situation was different . He was short of time, and he had to seize every second he had to get enough points within the shortest amount of time possible!

National level war quests and the feat system was no trivial matter . Based on the information the higher ups from Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, and Wind Assault Tower managed to deduce, the higher the number of meritorious deeds, the higher a person’s rank will be, and the chances of triggering hidden quests will be higher as well . Of course, the difficulty in the quests received will also increase .

Happy knew very clearly that the sooner they were able to trigger those large-scale quests, the faster Mu Clan will be able to get in touch with the information that had been revealed up till now, and they will also be able to get more information and run into more fortuitous events . Right now, his points had just reached seven thousand, but he was still a distance away from getting the position of a middle-rank captain . Besides, if he wanted to get one hundred and twenty-five cavaliers for his team as a middle-rank captain, he will also need an extra 6,250 points or so, because the points for each cavalier was fifty points .

But there were now two people ahead of him, and one of them was even Class One Hall’s ally, Langye .

Dream Clouds will definitely not let go of this chance!

Once Class One Hall and Sky Penetrating Tower worked together, Mu Clan will definitely be a few steps behind them!

No matter what, he cannot let them get what they wanted .

Happy gritted his teeth and calmly brought out his Bamboo Hat . He placed it securely over his head, and his Hoof Shadow began dashing madly to go up to the Chinese army .

At the same time, at the back of the Chinese camp, a group of elites congratulated Langye, who rode on a huge horse .

“Congratulations, Tower Master Langye . ”

“You’re the first senior-rank captain! Congratulations!”

“Haha! Everyone, thank you for your kind words . ” Happy was also very excited . He wrapped his fist in his palm and returned their salutations nonstop .

One hundred cavaliers followed behind him expressionlessly . Their gazes were as cold and sturdy as their armor, and they were arranged in an orderly fashion while they remained completely silent . They were well-trained, and even the armor they wore was completely the same as the cavaliers in the Chinese camp .

When a cavalier unit like this followed behind Langye, they quickly attracted the attention of the countless martial artists behind them .
