Sword Among Us Chapter 196

Chapter 196 - Chivalry Sect is in Trouble

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The second level of Fox Cave was a little more complicated compared to the first level. It was a little smaller, but every single cave was connected with each other, and there were move of them. There was also a varying number of White Foxes in each cave.

The ones with fewer White Foxes would have from seven to eight. The ones with more would have around twenty or so.

White Foxes were not too hard to handle if people ran into a small number of them, but if they ran into a lot of White Foxes in one go, even the three great sects would face trouble!

At that moment, seven White Foxes were surrounded by Chivalry Sect. They formed teams of six-seven people each and took turns attacking the White Foxes. They fought madly and gradually reduced the health of the White Foxes. Even though their progress was not quick, the safety measures they took were incredible to see.

The pelts of the White Foxes were very valuable and could be used to make high-grade leather armor. The quality was equivalent to the lowest-grade masterpiece, and the cost for one was around ten thousand taels of silver crumbs. The price of it alone was very impressive.

On top of that, the White Foxes’ drop rate for high-tier martial art manuals was much higher than the vixens’, and there was also a chance for them to drop the high-tier lightness skill manual—Fox Monster’s Phantasmal Shadow.

Chivalry Sect was the only player sect that suffered rather minimal impact on the trip to Fox Cave. They were also the only sect that could move at ease in the second level.

Red Dust was a rather calm person and noticed the displeased, wary, and hostile gazes from the other sects. Hence, once they entered the second level, he tried not to take any risks to enter the depths of the second level and attract too much of the White Foxes’ attention. He just did everything according to routine and took every step forward carefully. He could be considered to have done things according to standard.

However, the day was not bound to pass by calmly.

Just when Chivalry Sect’s group were in the middle of fighting against the White Foxes, a group of people not too far from them exchanged a strange gaze. Then, one of them quietly left the group.

Soon, a person suddenly rushed into the cave where Chivalry Sect was with a large skulk of White Foxes with feminine looks but fierce expressions on their tail. The fox monsters rushed into the cave with loud whooshes from their astonishing speed and made a ruckus with their piercing, demonic screeches. In an instant, Chivalry Sect’s members, who had been paying full attention to the White Foxes on their side, were so shocked that their faces turned pale.

“What’s going on?!”

“Someone caused trouble! Hurry up and lure them away…”

Red Dust reacted quickly. When he noticed that there was something off about the person who came over, he quickly rushed out of his group and looked at the stranger. The longsword was placed horizontally before his chest, and his expression was full of wariness.

If he let the skulk of White Foxes rush at the people from Chivalry Sect, then even if their group did not perish entirely, they would suffer great damage and would be unable to advance any farther.

However, the unfamiliar player seemed to have fixed himself on them, and he came charging at them.

“Bastard!”

With a furious yell, Red Dust erupted with an astonishing presence. His longsword shuddered, and a loud boom rose into the air. He intended to pierce through the chest of the player who tried to lure that large leash of White Foxes to them, but the person still managed to achieve his goal.

The moment he died, the gazes of the large skulk of White Foxes fixed on Red Dust and the people from Chivalry Sect. With noisy and clamorous demonic screeches, the White Foxes rushed at them.

The caves were all small. Once the large skulk of White Foxes charged in, they blocked most of the exits, which left Red Dust wrought with anxiety. He had to give up on saving his brothers and lure away most of the White Foxes to another exit.

But at that moment, a group of people who had been sitting on the ground to circulate their qi suddenly rose and moved to block the path of Red Dust, who was in a hurry.

The leader smiled coldly and said, “You’re still thinking of leaving? You killed our brother right in front of us, then stole our kill AND our drops. Did you actually think that there’s no one who will dare to attack Chivalry Sect?!”

When faced with the man’s righteous anger, Red Dust, who had been shocked and angered, was stunned to the point that he nearly stopped moving. “Nonsense! When did I—”

But he did not manage to finish his words.

“Kill him!”

The person before him did not have any interest to hear him defend himself. He sneered coldly and simply gave his order.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three hidden weapons instantly went flying at Red Dust from the group who stood at the entrance to the tunnel.

“You’re despicable!”

Red Dust finally understood: The group had planned everything since the start. They wanted to trap Chivalry Sect and kill all of their people. He roared, and the qi around him surged vigorously.

Boom!

A presence that surpassed those in Blessed Realm spread out from Red Dust! He put away his sword and attacked with his fists! Two illusory waves of qi that looked like an air wall quickly formed. The hidden weapons clashed against them with a bang.

Cling, cling, clang!

The hidden weapons bounced off and flew everywhere. They missed their target entirely.

Everyone’s expressions changed!

When they sensed the astonishing qi that had erupted from Red Dust’s body, a thought that surpassed their expectations suddenly popped up in their minds.

‘Mystical Realm!’

With an enraged roar, Red Dust charged at the group with the force as mighty and fierce as a dragon. The skulk of White Foxes was behind him, and he had no room to hesitate. He could only fight swiftly so that he would have time to save his sect members.

His body fortification technique began circulating on its own. It received a 30% boost because of Mystical Realm, and it made Red Dust’s personal defense so strong that he could negate most of the Blessed Realm players’ damage. His longsword appeared again like a phantom, and the blade shot forth like a hissing snake.

His agile movements and attacks that were as fierce as a titan’s sent the three people who blocked his path sprawling on the ground with one hit.

But Red Dust was injured slightly. It was impossible for him to take care of every aspect of the battle while he fought against a large group of players with high-tier martial arts. Besides, he also had White Foxes behind him. Before him was a group as vast as the ocean and as boundless as the sky, but if he took a step back, he would die with no body to be buried!

“You forced my hand!”

Once he sustained two more slashes, Red Dust growled!

He attached his longsword to its sheath, and his weapon became twice as long! He moved like a whirlwind and positioned himself in the middle of the crowd, then, the shadows of a staff appeared beyond his flashing sword.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The shadows of the staff overlapped with each other, and the air roared.

The longsword in Red Dust’s hands was treated as a staff. In a flash, he changed his agile fighting style to one that used staff techniques, which were bold and unrestrained. He was fierce and sharp.

All those who came into contact with the longsword’s fierce attacks would spill blood. Those who were struck by the sheath felt as if they had been struck by a great force. Their bodies would fly horizontally, and they would cough up blood nonstop.

In the blink of an eye, most of the group that blocked Red Dust died.

The ones remaining were even more unfortunate.

Red Dust might seem like a careless person, but he had a shrewd and meticulous side to him. He twisted his body and moved out from the center of the crowd so that the White Foxes who chased after him would change their target.

“Ah!”

“Run!”

All sorts of screams rose and fell within the cave.

Perhaps one Mystical Realm White Fox was not terrifying, but if Red Dust, who was in the same realm, did not have the courage to fight against a large skulk of White Foxes, then how could a normal group of players with high-tier martial arts have the courage to do so?

Once they were baptized by the bloody scene and thoroughly suppressed, all the people who wanted to bring trouble to Chivalry Sect spilled their blood and died.

“Vice sect master, you’re amazing!”

The people from Chivalry Sect were in high spirits and shouted to boost Red Dust’s morale.

The ploy against Chivalry Sect had been negated by Red Dust. But just when he was about to lure the remaining White Foxes away and leave the area, groups of players came continuously from the cave where the other skulk of White Foxes had went.

The people from a few different sects entered the cave one after another.

When they saw the devastating sight, the torn human limbs left on the ground after the White Foxes had massacred the previous group along with the uniform sect emblems on the corpses, the witnesses could not help but suck in a sharp breath! Their enraged and wary gazes moved back and forth between Red Dust and the people from Chivalry Sect!

“You slaughtered the members of the sect alliance for your own personal gains. Is this how Chivalry Sect does things, even though you claim yourselves to be chivalrous and justice?”

The voice came from behind the newcomers!

The expressions of those from Chivalry Sect changed drastically. When they turned around, they saw Situ Luoyu enter the cave with the elites of Fallen Feathers Sect. There was a dark look on his face, and his eyes were full of mockery and disdain.

“How virtuous! How very virtuous of all of you!”
