New Life Online 57 Dragoons

"Thanks to the game's support, they are showing us the live video of what's going on. It seems like the Guild Leader of the Ravens is chasing down Scythus. This is the first time we saw players who can fly! Scythus is being chased by one of the Thirteen G.o.ds! That's a bad news for him!" Aika commented.

There's a big screen at the center of the stadium for them to see what's happening to the elimination round. People are really excited about who's going to finish the task first.

-North West Gra.s.sland-

*SWOOOOOSH SWOOOOOSH SWOOOOs.h.!.+* The random long ranged attacks from the girl were very fast. I'm having a hard time flying and evading them at the same time.

"Aren't you a bit excited? Why attack me if we can meet at the tournament later?" I asked her.

"You've done something despicable to my Guild members. You need to pay for what you've done!"Ugh! She is one of those Ravens.

Jeez. I need to somehow stop her from chasing me. Using a spell would be a bad choice for me because it will reduce my mana. And that's not a good thing while I'm using my fire booster.

"SOAR UP!" d.a.m.n, she's really going for the kill!

She flew upwards at great speed. Did she stop chasing me?

"RAVEN'S SHARP CLAWS!" She suddenly dived towards me with her two short blades on both of her hands!

*SWOOOOs.h.!.+* You can hear jet sound like and she's about to kill me.

*That will not work! DARKNESS!* I decided to use one of my spells to help me escape from her attack.

I left a black smoke towards her direction and make her not see me.

"NIGHT VISION!" What the heck?! As soon as I checked what happened behind, she showed up and ready to attack me! She used a spell to see in the darkness!

"Bad choice of spell... Do you want to hide from the best a.s.sa.s.sin? You must be out of your mind! Take this!" She is ready to cut me in half with her twin short swords!

*SWOOOOOOs.h.!.+ BAAAAAM!* She hit the ground after her move. But...

"What the?" She was surprised that I managed to evade her attack.

She was exhausted from her attacks and stopped moving. It seems that she can't move for now. Better outrun her while I have the chance.

"Thanks, Shade, she almost got me there. I owe you one." I thank Shade for its fast use of its pa.s.sive to protect me. Her blades just pa.s.sed right through me.

I continued to fly through the forest and because of using spells, my current mana now is fixed at almost fifty percent, not good.

"Scythus managed to escape from the best a.s.sa.s.sin?! That was really cool! That's what you can expect from the infamous "REAPER"." Am I really that infamous?

"This time, the partic.i.p.ants are now going inside the forest. Dragoons' Guild members are having trouble traveling inside the forest because of its thick nature. This is a good chance to catch up to them. Other guilds are now able to shorten the gap between them and the Dragoons' Guild. Some other guilds are also already behind the Dragoons." The Guild Leader commented. Calling him the Order of Light's guild leader is kind of tiring, let me just call him old geezer.

"Most of the partic.i.p.ants who are still in the race are the ones who are with their respective guilds. For those who go solo, it's really a bad month for them to partic.i.p.ate. Some groups like Wild Lion Bandits also made it. They are now racing with the other guilds. Some guilds already made an alliance to finish the elimination round easier but some of them are already fighting." Aika also commented what she's seeing in front of the screen. Jeez, not the Wild Lions again.

-South West of the Forest-

"Stop this nonsense! If you attack us now it will only make the other groups catch up to us!" Dragoons' Guild Leader said. Two other guilds that formed an alliance started to stop the Dragoons.

Dragoons' Guild is the best target because they currently are the fastest riders. If they can defeat them, they can easily win the Elimination round without any problems.

"We know but we can slow you guys down, right?" One of the opposing Guild Officers said.

"Sir! Go now and let us defend you from them!" They are planning to cut the group in half so the officers can go now and increase the gap between the other guilds.

"Ugh. We don't have a choice. Good luck guys. We will surely win the tournament and make your sacrifices count." The guild leader promised them.

"Do you think you can defeat us? You wis.h.!.+" The opposing guilds charged at them.

"CAVALRY STANCE! CHARGING FORMATION!" They formed a triangle formation. This formation is good for attacking and defending.

*BAAAAAM! CLANG CLANG! BAAAAM!* They collided with the opposing guilds and defended from their charge! Their defense and attacks were so effective. This is the power of the guild that focuses on cavalry fight!

"MISSILE CAVALRY! FIRE!" Behind the cavalry is the missile cavalry. Unlike the melee cavalry, they use light horses to easily escape from opponents and at the same time attack them with long-range weapons.

*SWOOOOSH SWOOOSH SWOOOs.h.!.+* They fired multiple arrows upwards and hit multiple other guilds. That was really effective killing some members from the opposing guild.

The fight continued slowing them down and greatly decreased the gap.

"Fellow People of New Life Online! Dragoons' Guild is in troubled! They are getting sandwiched by two other guilds but they managed to defend and attack at the same time. They are really the Guild that has the best cavalry! Even two guilds can't easily penetrate their defense!" Aika excitedly announced the ongoing battle.

"Stop saying that they have the strongest Cavalry, you haven't seen our cavalry yet. Anyway, other guilds are also getting near the battle between them so I think it will end soon enough. This is one exciting event!" The old geezer complained and excitedly said.

"How can they defeat the Dragoon's absolute "CAVALRY STANCE"?"
