Chapter 313: Chapter 313
"Did you see it?" Mans cautiously said, "There are only so many martial artist disciples in the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall. They sent over forty martial artists this time, so it’s very likely they’re involved."
"Since they’re here, let’s go meet them." Achilles from the Half-Scale Race stood up as well, hefting a B6-level great sword, and headed towards the cave entrance without waiting for Galon and Monroe.
As the captains of the Half-Scale Race saw this, they also followed suit and walked out of the cave.
"Seems battle maniac couldn’t hold back." Galon smiled as he watched Achilles stride quickly out.
The three of them were all battle-hungry, but Achilles was a true battle maniac. With no worthy opponents in the Chasing Light City Defense Corps, he would often engage in duels with other corps elites on the frontline strongholds.
He had been warned several times by the Corps Captain because of this.
"We should go too, we can’t let him take all the credit." Monroe said as he chased after Achilles.
Galon could only helplessly follow, with Mans close behind, eager to see how the two female disciples from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, who once defeated Steel Bone and Sharp Fang, would fare against these three monsters.
Back then, the two female disciples from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall dealt with Steel Bone and Sharp Fang as if adults handling children; they weren’t on the same level at all.
Now, with the three monsters from the Defense Corps present, this battle could undoubtedly become the peak battle below the Bone Forging Realm in Chasing Light City.
Outside the White Feather Gang’s cave.
As the members of the Defense Corps emerged, they saw chaos outside the cave.
Hundreds of White Feather Gang elites and top-tier Wanderers, although coordinating quite well with both range and melee attacks and equipped with many B2-level arrows and weapons, had no way to resist the forty-plus martial artists from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
The disciples from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall faced the rain of arrows without concern, dealing with the fully armored quasi-martial artists and Extreme Apprentices with a single punch each, or using the White Feather Gang elites as shields against the arrows.
The battle lasted only a few dozen seconds, and more than half of the White Feather Gang’s elites and Wanderers were dead.
If not for the hundred or so members of the Defense Corps at the stronghold, they would have long since fled.
Forty-plus martial artists may not be much to the Defense Corps, but to any suburban force, they are an antagonistic presence.
Even sixteen martial artists would be difficult to handle, and equipping them with B2 Battle Armor would be ineffective, as each martial artist from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall wearing B4-level battle armor could easily exert a force close to four thousand kilograms. Using any martial arts is overkill against quasi-martial artists with less than a thousand strength.
Mans, coming out of the cave, wasn’t surprised in the least.
Though he regretted the loss of these elite forces, this stronghold had to be defended at all costs, and the fight must not occur inside the cave.
A martial artist level battle is like a bombing run; a battle between fully armored high-tier martial artists is even more destructive.
If an all-out battle took place inside, the entire cave might collapse, and the things the White Feather Gang secretly stored there would be exposed.
In such a case, it wouldn’t just be the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall dealing with them; the members of the Defense Corps present might also act against the White Feather Gang.
"Mans, the gang leader has ordered to capture one alive this time and extract the secrets of Red Moon Mountain. Don’t forget." The Dark Guard Captain of the White Feather Gang quietly approached Mans, reminding him.
"Rest assured, I’ve got it all arranged," Mans replied with a slight smile, looking at the front-row members like Galon. "Once they deal with those two from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall and the others realize they’re outmatched, they’ll flee. I’ve already instructed all the martial artist elders at the stronghold to use the secret techniques and quickly capture one without the Defense Corps knowing."
Hearing this, the Dark Guard Captain relaxed.
Though quickly subduing a martial artist from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall in front of many eyes from the Defense Corps is difficult, if the elders who’ve learned the secret techniques take action, it’s not too hard.
While Mans and the Dark Guard Captain were talking, the elite from the White Feather Gang and hired Wanderers were almost entirely cleared by the players outside the stronghold. The Defense Corps captains had all gathered and silently watched the still-fierce fighting players, causing the newbie mercenaries in training watching from afar to feel the weight of the situation.

Aiming to become Cosmic Mercenaries, they hadn’t experienced many battles but, through interacting with many mercenaries over time, could somewhat gauge a person’s skill level.
The extreme realism of the Descent of High Martial made them realize, upon seeing the defense corps members, that these individuals were undoubtedly hardened men; their experiences in life-and-death battles far exceeded even those of seasoned cosmic mercenaries. With equal physical conditions, they would absolutely overpower them.
Such formidable NPCs were already regarded as elite monsters by One Leaf Floating Cloud and others, and now nearly a hundred appeared...
Even those unfamiliar with virtual games knew that the dungeon difficulty in this game was problematic.
So many elite monsters would defeat veterans of numerous wars in equal number and level if they were the opponents.
On the other side, after watching for a moment, Galon and the others couldn’t help but sigh, with a tinge of regret in their eyes.
