Gamers Are Fierce-Chapter 861 - 860: Encirclement

Enemy attack.

Even without Tai Hao's vocal reminder, everyone present was instantly ready to face the enemy. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

In Raging Fire's hands, two flames manifested, Amber, Zhan Lu, and Chi Xiao drew their blades,

Wang Hu transformed into Thunder Wolf form, his body brimming with pale fur crackling with electricity,

Ding Zhensi's "Shanhai Kui Ox" mecha roared as its engines revved, its right hand clutching the High-Frequency Cutting Blade "Bug Buzz," while the left gripped a round shield dismantled from the "Shanhai Hornless Tiger Dragon."

"Twelve o'clock direction, straight ahead, two kilometers!"

As a member of the "Mechanical" guild, Zhi Ming shouted urgently, his dispatched drones being swiftly destroyed one by one, losing contact at a rapid pace.

Clang clang clang clang!

The air-splitting sound followed by four distinctly shaped flying swords, high-speed assaults from beyond visual range,

Their speed so fast that only afterimages were visible to them.

Bang—

Raging Fire hurled two fireballs, which rapidly expanded in the air, deflecting the trajectories of two flying swords.

Amber also used the "Tidal Messenger" scimitar, flicking up a piece of debris from the ground, casually striking it, utilizing the Tidal Messenger's area attack effect,

Hitting the other two flying swords from a distance, chopping them away.

Pfft.

The sound of a blade piercing through the body rang out,

Zhi Ming dumbfoundedly looked at his chest,

Only to see his chest being easily pierced by a concealed, dim, blade-thin handleless sword— this sword, using the cover of other flying swords to mask its traces, somehow evaded Tai Hao's vigilance,

Delivering a certain kill strike to the relatively weakest Zhi Ming among them.

Zhi Ming's body disappeared from the spot, and yet others had no time to worry.

In the distance of their sight, over twenty figures rapidly approached, all clad in ancient oriental attire— or rather, outfits from another world resembling those of ancient Eastern countries in the real world.

Scholars, Taoists, monks, Demon Sect disciples.

"..."

Tai Hao's gaze locked onto four individuals among them, a certain Trait shared among the strong led him to instantly identify their Leader.

"Sigh."

Arriving rapidly on a flying sword, Dann Chenzi suddenly halted mid-air a hundred meters away.

He expressionlessly looked down at Tai Hao and the others, and in articulate Earth language, he said in a deep voice, "Cease the futile resistance.

If you withdraw now, you can still leave safely.

There's no need to continue the fight.

I assume all of you are the strongest in your own worlds?

If you all perish here, the various Natural Disasters in your worlds will be left unsolved, causing even greater damage."

"...Isn't it a bit too late to say this now?"

Tai Hao squinted his eyes into slits, silently activating the "Ten Celestial Stems and Twelve Terrestrial Branches" cultivation method, ready to strike at any moment, "If someone must withdraw, why shouldn't it be you?"

"...Ah."

Dann Chenzi let out a long sigh, a sense of regret inexplicably rising within him.

In his world, much planning had gone into today.

They made immense and painful sacrifices, fully prepared for everything.

This was an unequal, unfair war, and the chances of victory for these so-called terrestrials were minuscule.

"If that's the case,"

Standing upon a flying sword, Dann Chenzi silently clenched his hand, causing four swords scattered in different positions to hum as they flew to his back, slowly rotating like lotus petals,

Even the hairpin shortsword confined in the micro cyclone broke free of Tai Hao's control, returning to the Lotus Sword Array.

"Then..."

Dann Chenzi slightly opened his hand, and the Lotus Sword Array blossomed behind him, rotating as the tips of the swords pointed downward towards Tai Hao and the others.

"Die."

The Lotus Sword Array, composed of five swords, suddenly expanded,

Along with the sharp words, the five Longswords shot down from above.

Tai Hao, who was already prepared with his energy, retreated swiftly, releasing a lifelike Misty Qilong composed of dense clouds and mist from his palm,

The Qilong opened its gaping mouth, biting onto one sword blade,

With its tail swaying, it coordinated with the fireballs hurled by Raging Fire and the slashes of Amber, knocking the other four swords away,

Thunder Wolf Wang Hu howled, chaining his four paws on the wall, bouncing off it, leaping towards Dann Chenzi standing on the flying sword,

His electrified wolf claws in mid-air extending sharp hook-like nails.

Facing Thunder Wolf, Dann Chenzi remained calm, lightly stepping to leap effortlessly,

The flying sword beneath him shot forth, striking Thunder Wolf's chest, knocking it away.

It surprisingly didn't pierce through...

Dann Chenzi furrowed his brow slightly, in his expectation, this sword should have skewered the Thunder Wolf directly.

The scales on the opponent's chest were extraordinarily tough.

"A swordsman should not be distracted on the battlefield."

A leisurely voice rose above, prompting Dann Chenzi to instinctively summon the sword that just struck Thunder Wolf for defense,

Instead, there came a dense metallic clashing sound above — Zhan Lu swung his Longsword in a circular motion, its Sword Gang Qi shining like the soft light of a crescent moon,

With amazingly precise control, causing the returning flying sword to be unable to escape the grasp of the Sword Gang Qi,

Instead acting like a high-speed saw blade, falling upon Dann Chenzi himself.

Swoosh—

A black shadow outside of visual range came smashing toward Zhan Lu like lightning,

Forcing Zhan Lu to redirect the Sword Gang Qi, blocking the front.

Boom!

The sharp sound of metal clashing was piercing and harsh,

Zhan Lu's face paled, heavily crashing to the ground, the tiger's mouth of the hand holding his sword faintly cracking.

The humanoid shadow also landed on the ground along with Zhan Lu,

A Magic Gate youth bare-chested, wearing a skull necklace, slowly stood up,

Accompanied by a blue-robed scholar, closed-eye monk,

As well as over twenty cultivators from the academy, Liwei Mountain, Jingnian Sect, and the Demon Camp.

"...Tch."

Raging Fire squinted, clicking her teeth discontentedly,

The otherworldly aura emanating from these people made her particularly detest them,

Particularly the leaders among them, whose emanating power fluctuations were on par with her own, if not Tai Hao's.

Is it that these Otherworldly People were raised on golden fertilizer?

Or is their planet's gravity ten times that of Earth's, newborns can crush wolves, three-year-olds can pull ten-stone bows, and seven or eight-year-olds can run around hoisting elephants?

"Do not underestimate them."

The Demon Sect youth reminded Dann Chenzi with a blank expression, casually twisting his neck, creating a series of popping bone sounds.

The blue-robed scholar wielding a scroll stopped his brisk strides, landing on the ground,

The suspended closed-eye monk just a palm's height above the ground also stopped flying, standing shoulder to shoulder with the others.

Footsteps continued to echo.

The One-eyed Giant Turtle, standing on two legs, brought thirty demons, rushing from behind the tunnel,

Trailing behind was an enormous Red Black Dual-colored Evil Hornless Dragon with a purple horn like a train car's head.

Tai Hao's expression grew increasingly solemn, the air in his hand slowly rotating, condensed but unreleased.
