Chapter 238: Wrong Choice (1)
At the Chinese Hwashin Guild.
Not only Chairman Li Shuang but also the guild’s top executives were at loss for words while watching the fight’s strange turn.
Then, after a while, Chairman Li quietly opened his mouth.
“Who is he?”
“…”
“…”
But nobody could respond to his question.
Among them, Huiyen, head of the intelligence department, could not even raise his head.
Even if he didn’t know who that man was, it was his job to investigate and find out about it.
Besides, this stranger was a formidable player.
On the battlefield.
“Oh my…”
Kwak Cheong, the Commander of the 1st Corps of the Hwashin Guild, had no choice but to laugh bitterly after watching the situation at the frontline.
Of course, he wasn’t just staring at the archer who showed incredible power. He made several desperate attempts to catch him.
For example, he launched an all-out attack at the archer’s position by mobilizing seven squads with multiple dealers hidden behind three columns of tanks, and 100 wizards who could use Blink. But all his efforts failed.
In particular, the attack of the 100 wizards who could use Blink was especially disappointing
As soon as all 100 wizards teleported to the archer’s side, they were annihilated by his AOE skills. Although wizards had low stamina and health, they received buffs from the enchanters right before using Blink, but they could not hold out even for a moment.
It meant that the damage from the archer with that huge bow was enormous.
Then, did the three columns of tanks and the dealers hiding behind them inflict any damage to the archer in question? None at all.
Even the three columns of tanks couldn’t protect the dealers from the archer.
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
“Kheeeeeeeeeek.”
“Damn it!”
“What the heck is this damage?”
Watching his troops collapsing helplessly at the archer’s attack, Commander Kwak recalled the phrase ‘leaves falling in the autumn wind’.
Besides, the archer was not his only opponent.
He noticed the Siddarth Guild members surrounding the archer for protection.
In other words, not only tanks, but also dealers, healers, and enchangers of the Siddarth Guild moved in unison to protect the archer. When his troops attacked the archer, the healers and enchanters didn’t hesitate to throw themselves in the line of danger to protect him even though they were not tanks.
Of course, both sides suffered lots of damage from the fighting.
But obviously, the Hwashin Guild members suffered more damage because the archer’s attacks were just tremendously powerful.
Anyway, when all his attempts to catch the archer failed, Commander Kwak used the most obvious and simple method, namely, the human-wave strategy. As a matter of fact, his troops enjoyed a numerical superiority to the Siddarth Guild on the battlefield.
But even that strategy didn’t seem to work.
“Damn it!”
“How is that archer so strong?”
“Damn it. Just one shot drained 40% of my health!”
“Don’t complain about 40%! That archer must have a supernatural power. Even Li Zian, who receives 90% less damage for 3 seconds when his health drops under 10% was instantly killed without even being able to activate his trait!”
Even though Kwak ordered his troops to charge forward in large numbers, he had to pay attention to the screaming and shouting of his troops who were directly hit by the archer’s arrows. However, he could not allow the archer to continue attacking freely, so he commanded his troops to endure and keep charging. But he soon had no choice but to order them to retreat because some of their troops were completely blocked by the archer’s vine attack, and others were blocked by the Siddarth Guild members who were strongly united to protect the archer.
Now, Kwak pinned hopes on those troops not yet exposed to the Siddarth Guild members.
But they were immediately attacked by the archer.
“Storm Shot. Great Storm Shot!”
Puck! Puck! Puck!
“Kheeeeeeeeeeeek!”
“Kuuuuuuuuuuk”
Even though his soldiers tenaciously charged toward the archer, they could not break through his attacks. And they suffered more and more damage. Moreover, it wasn’t only damage they suffered.
“Oy my God…”
“Who the hell is he?”
“Was there such a strong man in the Siddarth Guild?”
The morale of the troops was important in any battle.
Those with low morale who felt impending defeat got cold feet right away, while those with high morale who sensed victory fought more aggressively.
While fighting the Siddarth Guild members until now, Commander Kwak was proud that he scored lots of victories. But right now, the enemy’s morale was high, and his troops were disheartened. Obviously, the tide had turned.
The Hwashin Guild members desperately attacked the Siddarth Guild members, but their archer blocked their attack so easily.
Moreover, the archer not only defended against their attack, but even counterattacked with his arrows, which made Commander Kwak speechless.
As a result, Commander Kwak had no choice but to order a retreat.
Even though they kept attacking the Siddarth Guild troops for almost one hour, they didn’t get any tangible results. To make matters worse, the Siddarth Guild’s morale kept rising endlessly as if it was almost certain that they would clinch victory this time. Anyway, the battle that lasted almost five hours resulted in the defeat of the Hwashin Guild for the first time.
It meant that today’s battle was also the first victory of India’s Siddarth Guild.
At the Hwashin Guild that night.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Of course, the Hwashin Guild did not always win their battles.
They sometimes suffered a bitter defeat, and they were on the verge of collapse because of President Xi who took control of the Chinese Communist Party.
But all of their defeat back then was caused by the power of a huge group, for President Xi held the power of the Chinese Communist Party with the Princelings as their main pillar.
But this time they were defeated by only one person.
The Hwashin Guild had never suffered such devastating defeat at the hands of one person, so they were incredibly shocked.
Then, Chairman Li Shuang sitting at the head of the table opened his mouth.
“Haven’t you figured out who he is yet?”
“Well…I’m sorry. We are currently conducting an extensive investigation and are interrogating our sources in the enemy forces, but we have not yet identified the archer.”
Bang!
“What the heck are you talking about?”
Chairman Li Shuang struck the table in anger.
But he soon took a breath and suppressed his anger because he knew how hard the intelligence department was working to find out who the mysterious archer was.
Then he quietly opened his mouth.
“Asirante? No, that’s impossible.”
Of course, Chairman Li Shuang knew about Asirante.
It would be strange if he didn’t know who Asirante was as someone who was leading a huge guild.
He noticed the archer had supernatural strength just like Asirante, but his abilities were distinctively different.
Asirante was a wizard while this man was an archer.
Moreover, the archer who showed up on the battlefield today looked stronger than Asirante who Chairman Li had been seen in numerous videos.
At that moment, Huiyen, the head of the information department, mentioned something as if he read the chairman’s mind.
“I know Asirante was not the archer, but I got someone who has some times with Asirante to message him, and their messages got through to each other.”
Chairman Li opened his mouth, frowning at that.
“Gosh, there really are many hidden strongmen in the world.”
As soon as he said that, Wang Chii, the head of the strategy department, who remained quiet until now, cut in, “If we bring in the Guian troops, can they deal with that archer easily?”
