Chapter 117 Ambush

Swooping down the hillside, they got closer and closer to the bloodthirsty Battle Knife line. Looking out, the mountains and plains were full of Battle Knife members, stretching all the way to the distant foothills. Nie Yan slowly approached them from behind.

At the front, magic flew and the fighting was intense, but at the back, the scene was leisurely. Many players sat on the ground, discussing the battle ahead, waiting for their turn to enter the fray. Scattered players formed small teams. The players here weren’t elites; at best, they were mid-to-upper tier. They weren’t worried about a large force coming from behind. Battle Knife's intelligence was excellent, giving them plenty of time to react.

Nie Yan observed the area, then moved towards the densest concentration of people at the rear.

A group of about twenty Battle Knife players were gathered, chatting casually.

"Who do you think will win this time, us or the members of Asskickers United?" A grey-robed Holy Word Mage asked, sounding unsure about Battle Knife's chances.

"It's hard to say. Although we're fighting on enemy turf and have fewer people, we have ironclad catapults with a five-hundred-yard range. As long as we defend well and push forward, why should we fear Asskickers United? Look, Asskickers United is holed up in Cripps Fortress, afraid to come out. If we keep bombarding them, Cripps Fortress will become a pile of rubble sooner or later. I wonder how much ammo Mad Blade prepared, daring to bombard so wildly. Our guild prepared for this battle for at least five or six days. I estimate we have enough ammo to last at least three or four days," said a Level 45 Berserker in full gold gear. He was clearly a squad leader among these players and knew more than the others.

He seemed more optimistic.

The other players were influenced by his words and filled with hope.

Battle Knife wants to win? Not so easy, Nie Yan thought coldly. He sneaked past them, and they continued chatting, completely unaware of his presence. With their Perception, they wouldn't detect Nie Yan's Stealth unless he got within one yard.

Nie Yan quickly moved towards a group of Priests. Priests were a priority for protection during guild wars, considered vital strategic resources, and were usually gathered in large teams. Nie Yan estimated there were at least five hundred Priests nearby, with similar teams in other areas.

The Priests walked back and forth, also discussing the siege. Their leader had said that if Battle Knife failed in this guild war against Asskickers United, they would have to disband, and their members would be transferred to the League of Mages and Holy Guardians. This made them feel resentful, and they were all ready to go all out.

Nie Yan slowly entered the midst of the Priests, getting within two or three yards of each of them. He could see their faces clearly. At such close range, he was easily detected, so he activated Vanish to enhance his Stealth.

Nie Yan suddenly stopped. Three Priests were walking towards him, getting closer and closer, only about three yards away. He had nowhere to go. Nie Yan quickly sent a message to Soaring Angel and the others, "Move out!"

On a distant hillside, Soaring Angel was surveying the battlefield. The area below was teeming with people, like ants.

"I wonder how Nie Yan's doing. He should be arriving soon." Soaring Angel looked back at the others. The other twenty-nine members had gathered, and a magic teleportation array was set up on the ground. They were all eager to fight.

Next, they would give Battle Knife a good taste of pain.

Shaoyin walked up from the side and asked, "Any news from Nie Yan?"

Just then, Soaring Angel received Nie Yan's message. His expression changed, and he said in the team chat, "Start teleporting!"

Everyone's face lit up with excitement as they entered the magic teleportation array. Soaring Angel took out a scroll from his backpack and began reading it. A dazzling pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping the thirty of them. The light faded, and everyone disappeared.

The three Battle Knife Priests walked towards Nie Yan, getting closer, less than a yard away. One of the Priests suddenly sensed something. His face changed, and he said, "Thief!"

Before he could finish speaking, Nie Yan suddenly attacked, his Zennarde's Sword slashing across his throat.

One strike to the throat!

-1637, instant kill!

The Priests were suddenly attacked, and the surrounding people were thrown into chaos.

"There's a Thief!"

"Kill him!"

Nie Yan entered Stealth and flashed past them. They panicked. Some Priests conjured white lights, Light Rays!

White spheres of light flew upwards, showering down white light.

In the dazzling white light, a figure flashed past. This place was full of Priests with low defenses. Nie Yan was like a tiger in a flock of sheep. Targets were everywhere!

He raised Zennarde's Sword and rushed towards a Priest. The Priest turned to run, but Nie Yan's flame-covered sword struck his back, instantly tearing through his cloth armor and killing him instantly!

Holy Light Punishments fell towards Nie Yan, about to hit him.

Wind Rider!

Nie Yan used Wind Rider's invincibility to block the Holy Light Punishments and quickly pounced on another Holy Word Priest. Zennarde's Sword slashed down, instantly killing the Priest with a horrified expression!

Nie Yan's attacks were sharp and unstoppable!

"It's Crazy Thief Nie Yan!" Someone in the crowd recognized Nie Yan and shouted in alarm.

"It's Crazy Thief Nie Yan from Asskickers United!"

They never expected Nie Yan to appear here suddenly. This was Battle Knife's heartland. How could so many players on the perimeter not notice Nie Yan sneaking in?

It seemed nothing was impossible for Crazy Thief Nie Yan!

Nie Yan's terrifying attacks were chilling!

Some of the Priests fled in panic, while others chanted spells to counterattack.

Nie Yan relied on his unparalleled speed to charge through them, killing them with almost every strike.

"Don't run, everyone focus fire on him!" A Priest shouted sternly.

Dozens of Priests used Light Rays or chanted attack spells. If they worked together, dozens of attack spells would instantly kill even Nie Yan.

Just as they were chanting, a giant pillar of light descended from the sky. Thirty more people suddenly appeared, it was Soaring Angel and the others!

Things got lively. The thirty quickly adapted to their surroundings, and the Warriors moved first.

Charge!

Ram!

The Warriors charged in all directions, like tanks crushing everything in their path, causing chaos everywhere.

Caught off guard, the Priests didn't have time to escape. The Priests were approached by the Warriors. Their miserable situation could be imagined, especially in such a sudden situation.

At this moment, Shaoyin suddenly jumped high, about five or six yards, like an owl dragon, and swooped down. His Windstorm Sword slashed down, the blade enveloped in violent whirlwinds and electricity, the blade aura exploding out to five yards, striking into the Priest group, instantly killing dozens of them.

Wu Feng casually killed a Priest, glanced over there, clicked his tongue, and exclaimed, "Guild Leader Shaoyin, what skill is that?"

"Storm Execution, what do you think, not bad?" Shaoyin said smugly, and then used another Ram, knocking five or six Priests away.

At this time, Black Heaven and Big Brother Seven used high-level blessing skills, and pillars of light fell, illuminating all the Asskickers United members around them, instantly increasing their attributes significantly.

Sun, Hammer Strike, and other Thieves rushed towards the Priests like shooting stars.

The Priests were swept away in an instant. Everything happened so suddenly. From the appearance of Soaring Angel and the others to the frenzy of killing, it was less than a minute. The group teleportation of Nie Yan and the others was unexpected!

The thirty-one members of Asskickers United split into four groups, charging in all directions, like four sharp knives piercing into the heart of Battle Knife.

They were reckless and slaughtered all the way, corpses littered the ground.

On a distant hillside, Mad Blade received the news from below, and looked towards the direction where the Priests were. It was already chaotic. A huge Battle Knife array had been torn open. At least three hundred Priest players had been killed in less than a minute.

"What's going on?" Angel Ascendant asked Mad Blade next to him. He also noticed the chaos on the distant plain.

"It's Asskickers United. Crazy Thief Nie Yan led dozens of Asskickers United members to teleport in suddenly. It's a group teleportation skill!" Mad Blade said solemnly. He was wondering why Asskickers United hadn't made a move until now. The appearance of Nie Yan and the others undoubtedly signaled that the counterattack of Asskickers United was about to begin!

Angel Ascendant looked over there. Many Battle Knife members had been wiped out. He showed a thoughtful expression. Crazy Thief Nie Yan, he wondered what kind of person he was. He had seen some information about Nie Yan, Crazy Thief Nie Yan, he was famous.

But, so what.

Angel Ascendant suddenly smiled slightly, and said, "Let's go meet him."

He slung the Palent Firebird Longbow behind his back and flew towards the direction where Nie Yan was, moving with incredible speed, like a swift goose, the speed was the most commendable thing about Demon Hunters. Mad Blade and dozens of other players followed closely, swept across the plain.
