Chapter 474: 473, Illusionary Duel Grand Champion_1
At 7 o’clock and 10 o’clock, the two Chinese armies made a brief stop and marching in the east direction. This was towards the rear of the three foreign battalions that were stationed at 2 o’clock, 1 o’clock, and 12 o’clock.
The yers in the three foreign armies had heard Su Yu’s codedmand earlier, but they had no idea what it meant. They were not aware that the two armies acting at their rear have switched sides.
Meanwhile, in the camp, Su Yu’s second [Winter Mage] was recruited.
The oue was naturally predictable.
Under thebined pressure of Su Yu’s army, the two Chinese armies, and the two [Winter Mages], the three foreign armies quickly fell into ruin. They were shattered and broken up in the encirclement.
As for the remaining armies stationed at 8 o’clock and 9 o’clock, observing the unfavorable situation, they disregarded everything else and hastily led their armies towards the edge of the grand tform, walking off and down from the edge.
Thisrge tform, nketed with ice and snow, was finally upied by three Chinese yers.
The bounty for defeating the three battalions all went to Su Yu who amassed 6000 gold coins. He allowed MorningStar to recruit 20 [Tundra Wolf Riders], significantly increasing the overall strength of his troop.
The two Chinese yers turned to look at Su Yu after destroying the enemy armies.
Seeing that this highly skilled yer was Boss Ke, they were pleasantly surprised.<div>
One of them called out to Su Yu from afar, “Hello, Boss Ke! I am [Windling Crossing], a member of the Mu Yun Guild. I didn’t expect to run into you just after entering the instance!”
“Hello!” Su Yu replied to him with a smile.
The other yer also shouted, “Boss Ke, I’m a solo yer named Richard. You were terrific earlier, defeating two armies of the same size with only a few casualties; I almost couldn’t believe my eyes!”
While talking, the two yers rode their mounts towards Su Yu.
“It’s just a few tricks really. The enemy was just ipetent,” Su Yu modestly replied, “But we can’t get overly confident. The game has just begun, and we need to work even harder!”
Windling Crossing and Richard both nodded in agreement.
Windling Crossing continued, “Since yourmand capabilities are so advanced Boss Ke, how about I leave my army for you tomand?”
Richard also chimed in, “I’ve been thinking the same thing. I’ve nevermanded an army before and I wouldn’t know how to. Maybe it’s best if you do it, Boss Ke!”
After considering for a moment, Su Yu responded, “Alright, I’ll do it. I have eptablemanding skills. Make sure to observe and learn, and while I strengthen my troops, I’ll do my best to strengthen yours too.”
“Thank you, Boss Ke!” Both of them happily replied.
…
Next, each of them had their armies take over the gold mines.
Su Yu upied three of the five gold mines, leaving one each to Richard and Windling Crossing – a resource allocation proportional to their contributions in destroying the three foreign armies.
After distributing the gold mines, each of them rode their mounts to the edge of the tform.
Naturally, Su Yu was riding on Dima. Since it advanced to the fifth tier, he hadn’t used this female horse again. Now, in this instance where powers were suppressed to a third tier, it came into service again.
Upon reaching the edge of the tform and looking down, Su Yu, Richard, and Windling Crossing finally understood the nature of the location they were in.
Theirrge tform was the peak of a mountain; which mountain exactly, needs to be rified from the illusion map.
This illusion map, amodating 4110 yers and their respective armies, was extremely vast; its borders were not visible at a nce.
In the center of the map, five mountains of equal height stood erect.<div>
The mountains were arranged to form a regr pentagon and looked very grand.
Of these five mountains, Su Yu was on the snow-covered peak at the northernmost side; the peak of the eastern mountain was covered with red moltenva; the western mountain was shrouded with green flora; the two southernmost mountains were shrouded in strong sacred light and shadow respectively.
More than 4000 troops of yers were positioned in the five mountains, with a majority positioned on the mountain hills and slopes, and a small portion festooned just like Su Yu on the peaks.
In the center of the five mountains was argeke of significant size.<div>
That was the specific condition of the illusion map.
….
Looking at the situation below the peaks, Richard could not help but swallow his saliva.
He stayed silent for a moment then turned to Su Yu, “Boss Ke, what should we do now?”
Without even contemting, Su Yu replied, “What do we do? Well of course, using the peak as our base, we descend the mountain to eradicate the yers of the other nations! We follow the agreement, we unite with Chinese yers and purge the foreign yers. We aim to upy the most gold mines to expand our army size. It will be a fairly easy operation.”
“Alright, we’ll do as you suggest,” Richard answered.
…
Over the following period, Su Yu did exactly as he had said. Using the snowy peak as his stronghold, heunched attacks on the yers positioned down the slopes and along the mountain waist.
A high-ground armyunching a downhill attack on a low-ground army had a tremendous advantage.
Additionally, with Su Yu’smanding ability, the [Tundra Wolf Riders] with high mobility, the vast amounts of gold mines, and various other advantages, Su Yu marched unbeatably, purging foreign yers within the snowy mountain range.
Merely within 30 minutes, Su Yu led his team in routing hundreds of foreign troops, enlisting about 50 to 60 Chinese yers.
ording to the panel disy, the number of yers on the entire map was quickly dropping from the initial “4110/4110” to “1150/4110”.
By the time the count plummeted to “975/4110”, there were no more reductions to be made, as these 975 yers were all Chinese, and all foreign yers had been cleared from the map under the united front.<div>
After winning, the 975 Chinese yer armies rejoiced at the edge of theke.
ording to Su Yu’s observations, more than 200 of the 975 yers belonged to the army system led by Snow Leopard.
The army system was inherently adept atmanding battles and adapted easily to this sort ofmand-centricbat, so there are more of them left;
The nextrgest lot belongs to the elites of various big guilds, also numbering over 200.
The elites genuinely lived up to their name, managing to survive till the end even in amand-based game like this.
The rest were essentially members of smaller guilds or solo yers.
After 975 yers rejoiced at thekeside, they dispersed to various locations on the map, beginning topete for the ultimate championship.
However, the finalpetition was not fair—the quality and quantity of the troops varied greatly among different yers.
Take Su Yu for example, he even recruited two of the ultimate troop types [Frost Dragons] from the Icy Camp at a cost of 20,000 gold coins. With his avable funds andmanding abilities, most yers simply couldn’t hold a candle against him.
And that was indeed the case.
Time continued to pass, and an hour into the illusion, a decisive battle unfolded between Su Yu’s main forces and Snow Leopard’s army forces.
The two sides had simr forces, yet in the end, Su Yu, using his exceptionalmand skills, defeated Snow Leopard’s forces, emerging as the final victor of the illusionary battle!
