Chapter 537: Chapter 527: Is this a chicken?
Thirty thousand soldiers marched mightily towards the city outskirts, a commotion that naturally caught the eyes of other players.
Imdiately, players who were ready to revel stopped the partying and ran towards the city gates.
“Damn! These rulers really know how to play! Luring us into having fun while they sneak off to level up, planning to leave us in the dust forever!” soone cursed aloud.
“This won’t do. I was already two to three years late entering the ga last ti. If it weren’t for so great fortune, I’d be dead before I could catch up with the main force. This ti, I can’t fall behind no matter what!”
“Fuck this, can’t drink anymore. Off to level up!”
“One step ahead, leads to being always ahead. A new world, new opportunities; only an idiot would keep drinking and partying. General Yu wasn’t the first to depart; I noticed many groups sneaking out of the city earlier.”
“Let’s go, go, go… Hurry up! Ti to level up!”
…
So, the original celebration ca to an abrupt halt due to the movents of the Yu Army, and before long, a huge number of players gathered in front of the twelve city gates.
The players were eager, but not fools.
A new world indeed signified new opportunities, but it also implied new dangers.
They were all elites who had fought their way out of their own worlds, one could say their gaming experience was extrely rich.
Thus, at the city gates, a rather bizarre scene unfolded: a large crowd of players huddled at the entrance, craning their necks to see into the distance yet not a single person stepped out of the city.
So released birds, others moths; various Investigation Skills were used, and soon all sorts of information ca streaming back.
“I see it, I see it! Damn, are you sure this is West Kunlun? How co I’m seeing chickens, snakes, crocodiles, turtles, and wolves? Isn’t this just like the Newbie Village?”
“I saw it too! Man, this layout, it’s exactly like the Newbie Village.”
“Got it! Even though it’s a new map, the system has still arranged for us a transitional Newbie Village!”
“Holy shit, good thing I didn’t get drunk celebrating and miss this! What are we waiting for? It’s Newbie Village, full of weak little monsters ready to be plucked. If not now, then when? Charge, let’s stew these chickens and turtles, ti to level up!”
“Attack!”
The players boiled over with excitent and sward out.
General Yu gave his orders even earlier and, after cautiously waiting for the second wave of information to co back, he no longer hesitated and pointed at the flock of dimwitted chickens fluttering in the river and ordered, “Old rules, kill the chickens first!”
“Kill!”
The thirty thousand-strong army charged forward, but they quickly realized that their seventh-tier one-star power, which was once as fast as lightning under the rules of the Divine Realm, now felt as if their legs were weighted with lead. They couldn’t run fast at all, truly as if they had returned to the Newbie Village.
…
On the other side, the chickens practicing swimming in the river heard the shouting and killing and were scared out of their wits.
When General Yu and his n saw this, they laughed heartily and said, “These stupid chickens are scared already? Fry their heads later!”
The Yu Army’s players burst into laughter.
At the mont the players were laughing, the chickens also saw the players, and their looks changed!
The dull and stupid chickens suddenly had red eyes, not out of madness or murderous intent, but a long-lost, nostalgic emotion!
Then their frozen faces actually showed expressions, excitent, unbridled excitent, a nearly maniacal thrill!
“Sothing’s off, why do they seem more excited than we are?!” soone started to feel sothing was amiss.
General Yu also felt that sothing was wrong, but with only about a hundred chickens by the river and thirty thousand soldiers on his side, he really saw no reason to be afraid. Thus, he shouted, “Accelerate, let’s kill them first and talk later!”
Seven or eight chickens huddled together, their heads nearly touching as they looked at each other, and exclaid with excitent, “I’m not dreaming, am I? I think I see humans!”
“I think I see them too, not just humans but human players!”
“Are you guys dumb? Isn’t that huge city that suddenly appeared a human player city? It must be full of more inside!”
“It’s not a dream, so what are you looking at? Get moving, if Zi Gong and the others find out, what share will be left for us?”
“What are you waiting for? Let’s go!”
“Wait, the first principle of the Confucian Sect: always outnumber the enemy! Rally the troops!”
The next mont, one chicken flapped its wings and shouted, “Brothers! Players have co! You heard that right, the players you know and miss! Those with two legs, big eyes, wearing Armor, adorable and always ready to cry when beaten up!”
Another chicken outdid the rest by pulling out a gaphone, not electric yet still amplifying, and began to shout.
Yet another chicken pulled a Carrot out and tossed it into the river, and then with a boom, the water erupted, and sothing floated up…
But more ripples appeared in other parts of the water, growing larger and larger.
“What’s in the water? Fish?” soone asked.
General Yu was curious too. Standing on his chariot, he tiptoed to look over, just as the ripples broke and with a splash, a row of dumbfounded chicken heads popped out!
So of the chickens even had fish in their beaks!
At that mont, the players were stunned; they’d seen chickens before, but weren’t the chickens of the Newbie Village supposed to be pecking around on the grass?
Why is everyone diving to catch fish?
Are these still chickens?
The chickens looked a bit dazed, but the mont they saw players, their eyes instantly turned red and they excitedly burst out of the water. As they ran, shaking their heads and tails, they shouted, “Players! Players! Finally, players have co!”
At this mont, they were like seeing their loved ones, eyes brimming with tears, overwheld with excitent, shouting as they ran. The water splashed non-stop, with flocks of chickens jumping onto the shore. One mont a hundred chickens, the next mont thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands!
In the blink of an eye, the entire riverbank was covered with chickens!
Chickens everywhere!
Fat chickens weighing over a hundred pounds each!
This scene nearly drove the players of General Yu’s army insane. What happened to the promised hundred chickens?
“I must admit, I used to like chickens weighing over ninety pounds, but this is the exception!”
“General, what should we do?” soone asked.
General Yu’s mind was buzzing. A mont ago, he was planning to have his thirty thousand troops surround and attack a hundred chickens, but the next mont, three hundred thousand chickens that looked like they were on drugs charged at them, leaving him stunned.
However, General Yu soon snapped back to reality. He had absolute confidence in his army and smiled, “What should we do?
Didn’t you see they’re coming at us, heads first?
Of course, we slaughter them all!”
“But their size and numbers…” the deputy hesitated.
General Yu laughed, “Idiot, just look at these chickens!
They run around with no strategy at all. Three hundred thousand troops not united into a single force to charge at us, but scattered all over the place, running around aimlessly. Isn’t this giving us the opportunity to break them one by one?
Just looking at them, you can tell these chickens are a bunch of dimwitted waste!
All n, on my command, form the Iron Barrel Formation!
Let these chickens witness the wisdom of mankind!”
“Yes, sir!”
“Whirr!” The thirty thousand well-trained troops quickly changed formation, raising their huge shields. Skills were activated, and the shields interconnected, forming a ring of golden barriers like an iron fortress.
General Yu stood in the very center, with his hands behind his back, proudly watching the chaotic, running chickens and said, “Wild monsters will always be wild monsters. They shout about killing us, but then they rush past us from both sides without looking back. Brainless creatures!
But then again, what can you expect from the monsters of Newbie Village?
What is there to fear from such chickens?
No matter how many co today, I will slay them all!”
At that mont, General Yu seed to already envision the not-so-smart chickens crashing into the Iron Barrel Formation, breaking their bones, and being slashed to death by follow-up attacks. He wore a confident smile.
The warriors holding the large shields also laughed, “These foolish chickens, so are even charging straight at us, how ridiculous…
Next, I want to see them looking dumbfounded, haha!
Co on, stupid chickens, face the steel-like charge!”
Boom!
The mont the words ended, a chicken slamd into a shield. In that instant, the laughing warrior felt like he was hit by a steel rhino, his shield breaking like paper, a chicken’s head piercing through it and locking eyes with him!
For a mont, both man and chicken were silent, then…
“Cluck-cluck!”
“Ahh!”
The startled warrior and chicken both scread.
However, before the player could finish screaming, the chicken, as if panicked, suddenly exerted force, pulling the shield around its neck and galloping forward!
The terrible force transmitted, the shield slipping from his grasp, and then the chicken’s head pierced past his shoulder, while the shield, like a steel wall, slamd into his body, his face!
Bang!
The warrior’s body distorted and deford from the impact, his health bar instantly depleted, his body torn apart by the ferocious blow, instantly killed!
“That was clearly just a chicken…”
That was the warrior’s only thought before his death.
And this scene was nearly simultaneously happening all around the Iron Barrel Formation.
It was also in this mont that General Yu realized the seemingly disoriented, foolish chickens that had run past the Iron Barrel Formation had turned around and were now attacking from all sides!
At this mont, General Yu was completely dumbfounded. He couldn’t understand. The chickens’ eyes and movents clearly showed no signs of intelligence. Logically speaking, flanking, encircling, and surrounding – these tactics should be beyond their intelligence!
But General Yu imdiately realized the key point, “No, it’s not intelligence. There’s no trace of intelligence in their eyes—they’re purely operating on goddamn muscle mory!
Damn it, how many people have these chickens used this tactic on to be this proficient?”
