Chapter 293: Dusted
The commanders of the different companies looked over towards where Wu Chang was. It looked like they were waiting for new orders, and Sage was curious what else Wu Chang was going to try.
The bet is about withstanding attacks, not being fair.
Wu Chang let out a little growl and then whispered to one of his attendants. The situation in the battlefield shifted. The First, Second, and Third company no longer bothered to hide behind the Fourth. Instead, all four companies surrounded the Jade Horde from every direction and the elite cavalry unit spread out to support them all. The Jade Horde was now completely encircled and if they wanted to retreat they would have to break through the city guard companies first. Even so, the cavalry unit was waiting outside, meaning the Jade Horde would have to break through at least two units to escape their predicament.
Too bad for the city guards the Jade Horde didnt want to run. The dust cloud continued to swirl around, showing no signs of motion. Not a single member of the Jade Horde came out of the cloud, in fact nothing at all changed after they were surrounded. The city guards looked apprehensive, but they still charged into the dust cloud when they received the order. The noose tightened, the city guards maintained their encirclement even as they advanced into the heavy dust cloud. Visibility was very low, they could only see a dozen feet in front of them. Even worse, the flying sand abraded their skin and irritated their eyes.
There were no goggles in this world, at least that Sage had seen. Even if there were, they certainly didnt have them in Lionheart Town. There was no desert within hundreds if not thousands of miles, so the city guards were not at all prepared for such conditions. They could only hold up their sleeves to shield their faces, taking turns to peek ahead to look for the Jade Horde and also getting a face full of dust. Eventually, the sounds of combat rung out from the dust storm and Wu Chang looked uneasy. Sage was just as calm as before, showing his confidence in the Jade Horde.
We may not be a first rate power, but just the city guards from Lionheart Town dont stand a chance.The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.
They bullied the cavalry commander with numbers. He yelled ferociously and a sound wave rippled outwards, knocking back the nearby Jade Horde members a few yards. They regrouped and pushed towards the rider again. He had paused to issue his battle cry, but as he did, the Jade Horde started to encircle him. The commander swung a huge spear from the back of his horse and a slicing wind shot out. It smashed against a few shields and even cracked one of them. He continued the attacks, but after a few minutes of struggling he only managed to injure one of them and break a dozen shields. The Jade Horde didnt care about the shields, pulling replacements out of Storage Bags.
Just as the commander was about to be fully surrounded, the rest of the city guards made their attack. They all rushed towards the Jade Horde, which the Centurion noticed and immediately ordered the men back into a turtle formation. They grew compact again, piling into a tight dome and shielding from every direction. The cavalry commander intensified his attacks, but they were only slightly more effective. Previously, he had to stay on guard while being advanced upon from multiple directions. Now, he was the aggressor against a stationary target. Even so, the Jade Horde was too tough. His spear thrust with a loud hiss like a compressed air device. When it stabbed forward he punched into the shields, but could only penetrate a few inches before the spear got caught in the layers of Steel Silk. He caught a few of the Jade Horde in the arm, shoulder, or hand, but they were careful not to lean too close to their shields when the commander struck and protected their vitals.
After half an hour of intense clashes without breaching the turtle formation, Wu Chang looked annoyed. Sage glanced over to him, Are you satisfied yet? I foolishly forgot to set a time limit.
Sage let out a small smile, City Lord Wu Chang, it is up to you now. Will you use your superior numbers to outlast my Jade Horde, or will you accept your loss like a gentleman?
Wu Chang had also been thinking the same thing and wondering whether or not he would be so shameless.
My mere Jade Horde can only maintain a formation like that for half a day, we should really improve our endurance.
