Chapter 773: Chapter 437: Comedy of Errors

Before the team could launch their ambush, the other side reacted first.

A cold glint pierced through the wall, aiming straight for Li Changhe who bore the brunt of it.

At the same time, at the fork, two figures flashed in instantly.

It seemed that the other party had discovered their ambush in advance, or rather, they were waiting for Li Changhe to be in the right position.

After all, to avoid being detected, they deliberately extinguished the light ball and hid in the darkness, putting them at a disadvantage when attacked.

Shui Yue, who was originally at the fork in the road, made a quick decision. At some point, he quickly smeared his palm on his face, drawing three bloodstains.

This was the prerequisite for activating his Extraordinary Soldier.

Each Extraordinary Soldier has their unique habit of activation. After a long period of training, this action is deeply ingrained in their consciousness. As this action is executed, the body will subconsciously react.

For example, Li Changhe’s humming, Chen Guang’s cigarette in his mouth, and the bloodstains on Shui Yue’s face.

At this moment, Shui Yue entered the Extraordinary Soldier state!

The three launched their attacks simultaneously, with two going on the offense and one breaking through the wall to assassinate.

This was a cunning tactic. If they encountered inexperienced players, they might have been killed directly in a counter-attack.

It seemed that the intelligence of the Terror Devil in combat was not low. Li Changhe thought, as his hand didn’t hesitate to block with his Tang Hengdao. The cold glint violently collided with the blade of his sword.

In the dim tunnel, the confrontation of the two weapons gave off sparks.

At that instant, Li Changhe saw the opponent’s weapon. It was a long spear... Shouldn’t the members of the Treasures Immortal Team all be master swordsmen?

Why would there also be someone using a spear?

It didn’t matter. It was probably for the same reason that there were five people among the Four Heavenly Kings.

Li Changhe, being an archer, also knew how to wield a large sword. It was normal for a swordsman to use a long spear as well.

Li Changhe twisted his sword horizontally, attempting to flick the spear tip away. At the same time, he took a diagonal step to the right, planning to approach the opponent, then step out with his left foot, striking the spear with his sword. After using his strength to suppress the spear, he would kick out again, allowing the sword to slash at the opponent’s neck.

This was the Horse-walking sword, or the Horse-walking saber.

It was a lethal move for short, one-handed weapons like swords and sabers to deal with long weapons. It emphasized the unity of force between the weapon and the footsteps. With every step taken, the weapon swung with force.

While getting closer to the enemy, it also eliminated their weapon advantage. The farther the weapon, the stronger it was. However, if they were to get close, the advantage of the long weapon would be greatly diminished.

The Horse-walking sword was a technique that took advantage of this principle, simply put, it was a technique against long weapons.

Of course, an enemy with quick reactions wouldn’t be easily defeated like this. So the lass, who had been following closely behind Li Changhe, should also strike at this moment.

Li Changhe planned first to take out one of the enemies.

However, the opponent’s skill was far beyond Li Changhe’s expectations, or they had already understood the principle of the Horse-walking sword. The spear in their hands swung with great force, blocking Li Changhe’s attack.

Oh ho, this turned out to be a bit difficult.

Was it the Willow Moon Stance? The opponent’s spear skills were quite powerful.

Li Changhe thought, as the electric arc on his body erupted. He activated Breath of Thunder, still stepping out with his right foot while slashing with his sword.

The opponent was no simpleton either. The spear shaft suddenly swung toward Li Changhe, trying to force him back. At the same time, they leaned their body to the side, intending to withstand the sword with the shaft of the spear.

Unfortunately, in this position, Li Changhe could still injure them. This tactic of exchanging injuries was not a big problem for Li Changhe.

He was a player with a strong Physique, and his ability to reduce damage from weapons and close combat was impressive.

Even without wearing the Mountain Pattern Armor, Li Changhe’s Defense Power was already quite formidable.

As a result, the moment the electric arc lit up on their bodies, both of them stopped in their tracks.

The arc slightly illuminated the tunnel, allowing Li Changhe to see the appearance of the opponent - a young man also wearing a magical robe...

"Huh?"

"Huh." Both of them were stunned.

Upon realizing the situation, Li Changhe quickly shouted, "Wait, it’s one of us!"

But it was too late. Sensing her husband in danger, the lass had already swung her leg.

They had already detected an attack even before Li Changhe had illuminated the darkness with his Breath of Thunder. Not wanting to be detected by the other side, she didn’t take out her dangerous Demonic sword at first.

At this moment, Li Changhe’s beloved slender and flexible leg made a horrifying whistling sound.

When the lass could finally see the opponent’s face, it was already too late to withdraw her attack.

The powerful kick landed on the man’s chest.

When the word "wait" had yet to leave Li Changhe’s mouth, the man was already kicked three meters away, hitting the wall and almost losing his breath.

"Mr. Xiao... Did you want to beat me up for a while now?" The man rolled on the floor, holding his chest in pain.

Could it be anyone else?

The girl’s face looked somewhat strange as she silently hid behind Li Changhe.

"Damn it, didn’t Brother Feng see my Tang Hengdao? Why didn’t he say anything?" Li Changhe quickly went to help him. During their confrontation, there was some strange familiarity between the two of them. It seemed like that was always the case when they practiced together.

"Nonsense! If I recognized the wrong person in the pitch dark and it turned out to be a Terror Devil with a similar build to you, I’d be decapitated by one of their swords the moment I hesitated!" He Feng cursed while covering his chest, "So I finally experienced the mixed martial arts of you two."

On the other side, Shui Yue, who had activated his Extraordinary Soldier, also stopped fighting.

There was better lighting on their side, so they noticed that the opponent was not a Terror Devil at the very moment they started fighting. They immediately stopped fighting and revealed their player name tags.

The other party also reacted quickly, giving up on collaborating for a kill, and quickly retreating while revealing their name tags.

LV11[One Day Life Loss]

LV12[Smiling Half-step Mad]

Both of them were wearing Frieza Battle Suits. Their identities were self-evident.

"Awei Protection Association? Why are you here?" Shui Yue wiped the blood from his face, "This is our task area."

Both of them were members of the [Awei Protection Association] and had joined the Insect Swarm Punishment Team during the disaster fog.

Of course, He Feng was also in this team.

They accidentally discovered a tunnel leading to a strange underground space while the main army was attacking the insect swarm. They suspected that the Insect Queen was in this area, so they followed the trail of the insects and came here, intending to scout the terrain for the main army.

However, at the fork in the road, one of their teammates, Smiling Half-step Mad, noticed something strange, leading to this farcical incident.

Both sides assumed that there would be no other players in this space apart from themselves and that the rest were all Terror Devils, so they acted decisively when they attacked.

As a result, misunderstandings ensued.

Shui Yue and the others were fine since they had better lighting at the junction and could see if the opponent was human with their naked eyes.

Li Changhe’s side had a harder time, with He Feng breaking through the wall and launching a surprise attack. Both sides exchanged blows in the pitch-dark tunnel before realizing the mix-up.

It really was a ridiculous mistake.

In fact, it couldn’t be blamed on anyone. Given the situation at the time, who would dare to stop first?

Nevertheless, considering the relationship between the two, this awkward situation was still rather embarrassing.

"No wonder it’s General Mountain. It has both you, Hidden Dragon, and Phoenix Chick, the two great generals at the same time."
