Chapter 147 Rations

Though "rations" is an ancient term, everyone understands its meaning. At this moment, Young Master Han treating the priests as logistical supplies made a certain amount of sense.

Even Lian Zhan Wu Shang and the others finally understood. It seemed this was the main reason Young Master Han had set up an ambush in the Priest Academy. The goal was to confine the opposing priests to the resurrection point, severing their connection. If Gu Fei hadn't sent all three priests into the resurrection point ahead of time, Young Master Han would have undoubtedly tried to eliminate them at all costs.

Their output wasn't superior; having three excellent priests on their side meant they were already in an invincible position.

Sword Demon and Hei Shui's method of butchering Lao Wu and Xiao Chen was also clear to Sniper and the others. So far, apart from the few people killed by Gu Fei and Gu Xian, the rest had died heroically under this brutal tactic.

The veterans were fully aware of the dangers involved but were helpless to do anything about it. The opponents were reckless, simply wanting to grab and stick to you. In reality, they could patiently dodge and maneuver, consuming the opponent's stamina, but in the game, slowly grinding away would only deplete their own HP. Therefore, to avoid this tactic, the veterans couldn't think of any other way besides turning and running. Even Gu Fei sympathized with them. Gu Fei wasn't afraid of this tactic because his damage was abnormal. If Gu Fei couldn't use magic and slowly had to grind, he would not be able to kill the opponent with the support of priests.

With the support of priests…

Suddenly, more than just Gu Fei realized this point. Sniper and the others also realized the key to today's battle: whether they could kill Young Master Han and his three priests first would become the deciding factor.

Sniper suddenly made a hand gesture, breaking the calm confrontation. Sniper raised his hand, firing a sniper shot at Young Master Han. Old Lei and Da Lei, the two mages, waved their arms, throwing grenades. Kai Shan Fu and the other melee classes stepped forward, preparing to take down Young Master Han in one fell swoop.

Young Master Han sneered. How could he not know where the turning point of this battle lay? He stepped back while casting recovery spells, circles of white light landing on himself. Sniper's sniper shot, Old Lei and Da Lei's magic, and the symbolic attacks from those rushing over with bows and crossbows were all taken by Young Master Han one by one. Straw Priest and Lin Mu Sen Sen truly worshiped this guy! Priests' spells and mages' spells were the same. Chanting and casting while moving was ineffective. However, Young Master Han's rhythm was so precise. He chanted the spell in the brief pause of each step, making it look like he was recovering himself while moving. Coupled with his golden ratio addition of intelligence and spirit, his spellcasting speed was extremely fast. None of the opponent's attacks could interrupt his recovery.

Zhan Wu Shang stared blankly, unable to help but say, "What's the point of fighting? Just hold on by yourself, then?"

Sniper and the others were secretly pleased to see Young Master Han putting on such a show. No matter how unskilled they were, they knew that such a stubborn act would consume a lot of mana. Once his mana was exhausted, he would only face death. Even if he didn't die, this priest would need some time to replenish his mana, which would be equivalent to cutting off one-third of the opponent's rations!

Kai Shan Fu and the others were also thinking about this, but they weren't willing to just exhaust Young Master Han's mana. Their goal was to completely kill Young Master Han on the spot. Seeing the opponent's warriors and fighters rushing to the rescue, Kai Shan Fu and the others roared, rushing forward even more bravely!

"Wait, retreat!!!" Kai Shan Fu, who was at the forefront, was somewhat lost in the situation, while Sniper, who was in the rear overseeing the overall situation, could see clearly. The others on the other side suddenly seemed to wake up and rushed out, reacting sooner or later. Sniper was initially a little disdainful of these guys, who couldn't compare to their professional soldiers, launching attacks without any order. But as the opponents rushed out a few steps, Sniper realized he was wrong, and seriously wrong! It wasn't that they had no order; this chaos was their order. They each had their own starting time based on their different attributes. At first glance, it was chaotic and disorderly, but in the end, these guys would arrive at the same time, surrounding Kai Shan Fu and the others who had rushed up.

Kai Shan Fu and the others were trapped in the middle, and they saw the opponents rushing up in a disorderly manner. They only felt that they could catch up to Young Master Han in a few more steps and couldn't bear to miss this great opportunity. Hearing Sniper's shout, they subconsciously concentrated and paid attention to their surroundings. The guys who rushed out had already gotten much closer to them, and they also felt something was wrong. Young Master Han continued to step back while smiling: "Sorry, it's too late!"

Zhan Wu Shang and the others who rushed out didn't rush up recklessly like they did when they besieged Duan Shui Jian. This was a different opponent. They had warriors and fighters. Rushing forward recklessly could disrupt their formation. At this moment, keeping a slight distance allowed Zhan Wu Shang and Jian Nan You time and space to use the same skills to collide, whether it was the opponent's Whirlwind Slash or Charge. This collision would be judged by the system, and the two experts with good equipment and high attack would definitely have a great advantage.

Kai Shan Fu and the others had Duan Shui Jian's reminder, so they thought the opponent would rush up to squeeze them to death. These guys were, after all, practical experts. They knew they were different from archers like Duan Shui Jian. They had ways to break through this kind of siege with their profession-specific skills, so they were prepared. But they didn't expect these people not to stick to them but instead create a situation that was neither surrounding nor not surrounding, a hesitant situation.

Skyfire Wheel!

At this moment, a red light flashed across the sky, and a blazing fire wheel crashed down. Kai Shan Fu and the others wanted to dodge, but they finally realized the opponent's purpose. This circle of theirs, which seemed like a surround but wasn't, couldn't cause them any harm, but it could block their movement. Kai Shan Fu and the others wanted to rush out, but ordinary methods were useless because your ordinary attacks were ignored by the opponent. When you punched someone, they would block it with their face, and then hug you with both arms. The two warriors next to Kai Shan Fu thought of the embarrassing sacrifice that morning and still felt a little chills. Subconsciously, the two didn't choose Zhan Wu Shang and Jian Nan You, their same profession, and instead, they both used Charge, aiming at Huo Ran Yi, who was casting spells.

This person was a mage, with no strength. Even if he was approached, he wouldn't be able to grab them, and they could stop him from continuing to attack. The two warriors calculated in their hearts, feeling that their decision was very wise.

Huo Ran Yi glanced at Young Master Han when he saw the two warriors charging at him.

He really guessed right!!

Huo Ran Yi was surprised. He waved his staff, and suddenly, a beacon of flames rose in front of him. The two warriors were charging forward, and they were shocked when a wall of fire suddenly rose. At this moment, the only way to stop was to "cancel the skill," which was a serious game operation. How many players in the game couldn't play it smoothly, let alone two middle-aged players who had only been in the game for a short time? The two were flustered and didn't think of this at all. As a result, they charged through the fire wall together, colliding with Huo Ran Yi.

Huo Ran Yi flew, but he was also bathed in white light.

The two warriors were on fire, but no one paid attention to them.

Huo Ran Yi's equipment wasn't bad, and the two warriors' charge wasn't enough to kill him instantly. However, the two warriors' equipment was ordinary, and they were burned painfully by Huo Ran Yi's fire wall. More importantly, they had no one to heal them. Dragging their remaining lives, they had to continue fighting, making them extremely pitiful.

At the same time that the two warriors suddenly attacked Huo Ran Yi, Zhan Wu Shang and the others suddenly took big strides to shrink the encirclement. Bai Shi Jing Lun got up where he fell. He directly charged at Kai Shan Fu with a Shooting Star on Horseback. If it was just an ordinary character, Kai Shan Fu might be able to defeat him in a few moves, but Bai Shi Jing Lun wasn't so easy to deal with. As soon as he invited him to fight, the two of them immediately engaged in a fierce battle with punches and kicks. Although Gu Xian had left a deep shadow on him, his psychological quality as a professional soldier was excellent. Even if he knew he wasn't an opponent, he wouldn't be afraid. It was just that the extremely confident momentum he had before was gone, and he was fighting more cautiously.

The other fighter became the focus of Zhan Wu Shang and the others' siege. As they expected, the fighter's skills were also very effective in breaking the encirclement. As soon as a group of people went up, he threw one of them flying. But unfortunately, there were a total of six people on this side: Zhan Wu Shang, Jian Nan You, Brother You, Invincible Lucky Star, Dao Xiang Mu, and Lin Mu Sen Sen! Surrounding one person left a substitute. When one person was thrown flying, another one would fill in. The miserable fighter couldn't escape. When he wanted to use Flying Swallow Slash to jump out of the circle, as soon as he jumped, the circle of experts changed, and the result was like jumping from one grid to another, followed by a round of punches and kicks, making him extremely depressed.

The fighter wasn't a class with a lot of health either. After throwing a few people and jumping a few circles, he tragically became the first guy to be killed.

In addition to the two warriors and two fighters, there was also a thief and two knights who rushed over to capture Young Master Han. They weren't idle either. The opponent they were facing was the most terrifying Gu Fei.

The three of them weren't losing to Kai Shan Fu too much in terms of fist and foot skills. At this time, they were fighting Gu Fei with daggers. Although knights could use swords, they hadn't practiced swordsmanship. They really didn't know how to use the sword effectively, so it was better to use the daggers they were more familiar with.

Battles broke out everywhere in the street, but the fight here was even more interesting. The three cooperated well, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. If it was just one person, Gu Fei could kill him quickly, but facing three at once, he really couldn't resolve it quickly.

Young Master Han was a little annoyed when he saw this and couldn't help but shout, "What are you dodging for? I'll heal you if you get stabbed."

Gu Fei's battle was also relatively well-behaved, which made the three veterans very gratified. When they stabbed with their knives, no matter where they attacked, the opponent would dodge and counterattack. If it were those two rude warriors, the knife would be stabbed in vain. They wouldn't care whether the stab was in the heart or the liver. Wouldn't that be infuriating?

At this time, Young Master Han reminded him loudly, wanting Gu Fei to learn to be a little more rogue. He could see that Gu Fei sometimes had to avoid some of the opponent's attacks, changing his shape and changing the direction of his sword, which could have already been cut at the opponent. According to his meaning, just stab him! With his recovery spell, it would be as if he hadn't been stabbed. As soon as Gu Fei's sword touched someone, he chanted a sentence, and the world would be quiet.

As a result, Gu Fei ignored him and continued to fight people in a proper manner.

Young Master Han rolled his eyes and scolded, "Idiot! Waste!" The others were extremely ashamed to hear this. If they were all trash, then what were they? Microorganisms?

The endings of several places exploded at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, this was the situation. The two warriors who had crossed the Beacon Fire Wall wanted to chase Huo Ran Yi. Huo Ran Yi didn't have Gu Fei's quality. Relying on the fact that his side had a priest, he released Skyfire Wheels and Fire Trees with a Thousand Flames directly on his head and feet. The veterans only guarded against close combat when they were fighting with knives, forgetting that mages could also use this shameless method. As a result, the two were killed again under Huo Ran Yi's self-destructive attack. The two were also very tragic. They had been killed three times today. This was a remarkable achievement among ordinary players.

Zhan Wu Shang and the six of them joined forces to kill a fighter, and they felt it was quite magical. At this time, seeing that Bai Shi Jing Lun didn't need their help against Kai Shan Fu, and Gu Fei was fighting three people without losing ground, they were still worried about Gu Fei. He had just been scolded as an "idiot and waste" by Young Master Han and was likely to be emotionally unstable. If they went up to help and he exploded with his spinning Double Flame Flash, everyone would be in trouble if they accidentally got touched, so they couldn't go up.

So, the six of them rushed towards Sniper and the others with great momentum.

Sniper was depressed at this time!

He had formulated the strategy of him and Old Lei and Da Lei providing firepower traction, and the other seven people going up to capture Young Master Han. Who knew that they would fall into the opponent's trap again?

The other side knew better than him what the key to this battle was, so they simply used Young Master Han as bait. Kai Shan Fu's attack was met with a very targeted response from the other side, which was obviously planned in advance. Seeing that Huo Ran Yi had killed two warriors by himself, while Zhan Wu Shang and the six of them had only killed one fighter, it was the result of their strategic response to their attacks.

Sniper and his ten people had already lost three. If Gu Fei hadn't refused to use the rogue player's fighting style, the three people he was dealing with would have been killed long ago. This was because Gu Fei saw that the situation was under control, and there was no threat to his side. If it was a critical moment, he wouldn't have insisted on not using the rogue's fighting style. Now that the overall situation had been decided, this was just advertising time, and he could arrange it as he pleased.

Ye Xiao Wu and the three people in the resurrection point couldn't see the battle situation outside. However, the spectators knew what was important and knew that these three people were related to the battle situation outside, so they made way for the three of them to go out. However, at the gate of the Priest Academy, Jiao Shui was waiting for the three of them with his bow! Sword Demon and Hei Shui were missing from the battle and out of sight, undoubtedly lurking at the entrance of the academy again.

The three of them could only repeat the last result if they went out, without any benefit. The three of them were hoping that Sniper and the others would quickly kill their way to the academy gate so that they could get close and come out. This was actually another way for Sniper and the others to find a chance to win. Since the key to victory lay with the priests, they would naturally have to either destroy the opponent's priests or rescue their own priests.

Unfortunately, Sniper and the others failed to do either. As the three people were killed before, Bai Shi Jing Lun used the forbidden skill Fire Dragon Fist, which brought out Kai Shan Fu's psychological shadow again. This honest and sincere Kung Fu kid from this morning was now attacking with unusual ruthlessness. Kai Shan Fu's fighting skills were inferior to Bai Shi Jing Lun's, as Gu Fei had said. He relied on a burst of momentum to win against the strong with the weak. Now that his psychological burden was getting heavier and his momentum was getting weaker, Bai Shi Jing Lun was getting smoother and smoother, and Kai Shan Fu was suffering unspeakable pain.

On the other hand, Gu Fei was facing three people and gradually gained the upper hand. This was also caused by an unsuitability of the three veterans. They were fighting on the battlefield, and life and death were decided in an instant. They rarely fought for so long. Gu Fei was different. They competed in Kung Fu, because they didn't use any cruel or killer moves, and they also aimed to verify and learn from each other, so they usually didn't rush to decide the outcome. Everyone punched and kicked, and suddenly stopped to chat and communicate. If they were tired from fighting, they would stop to drink tea and eat snacks, and continue after resting. In this way, as long as they had the strength, it was possible for two people to fight for a day.

This kind of situation created the current situation. The three of them roared and killed each other for so long, but they hadn't even touched the other side. This was unheard of for the three of them. The three of them gradually became emotionally unstable, which affected their judgment, and then some moves would have some slight deviations. In the eyes of an expert like Gu Fei, that was a loophole. He caught a loophole, and delivered a sword. Hit, chant - this was also coming out, fire, thunder, and whatever else could be used, all greeted them, killing one person instantly.

Sniper was leading Old Lei and Da Lei, who were both ranged attack classes. Zhan Wu Shang and the others who were killing them were all short-legged, so they did have the capital to kite them, but the other side had priest support, so all this tossing was a waste of time. Sniper had already decided to retreat, and commanded them to attack Gu Fei and Bai Shi Jing Lun, wanting to rescue his brothers. As a result, his intention was seen through, and Zhan Wu Shang and the others simply ignored the three of them, turned around and tossed these few again, surrounded them, and killed them all. Gu Fei sighed with his sword in hand. He hadn't had enough fun yet!

Sniper saw that this was really a big defeat, and they couldn't do anything with the three of them left. Duan Shui Jian received the news and suggested that they withdraw first. The three of them reluctantly prepared to leave. Sniper's archer had the advantage of movement and wasn't afraid at all. But Old Lei and Da Lei, although they had added agility, couldn't compare to Gu Fei. Even the agility that Bai Shi Jing Lun had invested was enough to be on par with them, so these two were a little troublesome.

However, Sniper knew that Duan Shui Jian and the others had already come from the resurrection point to meet them. He could only team up with them and cover their retreat.

Sniper led the two mages and ran wildly. Zhan Wu Shang and the other short-legged ones had already given up chasing, and Gu Fei didn't even move at this time. He didn't have any deep resentment towards the veterans. He had chased them once from the tavern before, which was enough. He didn't think of it as endless.

Bai Shi Jing Lun became the only one who jumped out to chase, but after chasing a few steps, he looked back and saw that he was the only one moving, so he stopped in confusion.
