1417: Chapter 1417: Coming Out in Full Force 1417: Chapter 1417: Coming Out in Full Force The alliance forces of the Western Aristocrats and the Northern Aristocrats set off.
This ti, in addition to Xue Long, there were three other Xue Clan masters, plus two hundred vampires and one hundred ordinary soldiers; the lineup was quite sizable.
The vast convoy moved along Death’s Road, while Gu Fan and Li, dressed in their gear inside a large truck, checked their weapons, making battle preparations.
“I’ve never used this thing before,” Li said, sowhat nervously, as he picked up a gun and aid it, causing several people opposite him to quickly dodge and curse, leaving Li feeling very embarrassed and repeatedly apologizing.
Gu Fan wasn’t skilled with guns, either; he scratched his head, “Just watch what others do when the ti cos, and you do the sa.
Anyway, it’s supposed to be the vampires who are the main force; I guess we won’t even be called to the front.” Hearing this, a few others laughed, “You’re half right; the vampires are the main force, and we are the ones to lead the charge.” Li understood they were to be like bait, just like last ti in the warehouse.
The vehicle jostled on Death’s Road, everyone feeling unsettled, knowing they would eventually encounter the Hunter’s Guild and battle would ensue, but all hoped it would be later rather than sooner.
Gu Fan rembered sothing, “Can we pinpoint the Hunter’s Guild’s exact location now?” A captain-level figure answered, “Based on reports from our scouts, they have already entered Dark Primitive Mountain.
From their point of entry, we can roughly deduce their direction of travel.” “So, we still don’t know where they are,” Gu Fan felt there was still hope; Dark Primitive Mountain was so vast that even a slight deviation in their paths could an they wouldn’t encounter each other.
From Gu Fan’s perspective, he shared a common enemy with the Hunter’s Guild, so he did not wish for the Guild to suffer heavy losses or be annihilated before reaching Dark City.
Li then curiously asked, “Do you know the movents of the East Nobles and the Southern Aristocracy?
I heard they set out even earlier than us.” The captain nodded, “Yes, it’s said they’ve already entered the Dark Primitive Mountain, so we must move faster than them.” Li was puzzled, “Isn’t it better to let them encounter the Hunter’s Guild first?” The captain explained, “This ti, it’s about who eliminates more, who gains more rit, so everybody wants to encounter the Hunter’s Guild quickly.” Hearing this, Gu Fan’s heart sank; it seed every one of the Four Great Nobles had sent a formidable force, confident enough to wipe out the Hunter’s Guild’s elite, so all wanted to take the initiative.
Suddenly, the vehicle ca to a stop.
Everyone tensed, unsure if they had discovered sothing unusual or if they were under attack.
The rear compartnt of the truck opened, and people called for everyone to disembark quickly; the operation was beginning.
Gu Fan jumped down and saw people running into the Dark Primitive Mountain; he followed suit, inwardly sighing.
Last ti, it was he and the rcenaries who entered this place and were ambushed by Organization X.
This ti, the Hunter’s Guild entered, and he was sniping with Organization X—how unpredictable life was.
Daring to step into Dark Primitive Mountain, Gu Fan saw people setting up tents under the dense branches of ancient trees; he also saw Xue Long and several other high-ranking figures standing nearby, indicating that this was to be a command post.
Li tapped Gu Fan and gestured toward Xue Long’s defensive line, signaling a move.
Understanding, the two approached Xue Long, maintaining respectful deanors.
“Hello, Lord Xue Long, do you rember us?” Li smiled, his heart filled with silent anticipation.
“It’s you.
I owe you for last ti,” Xue Long certainly rembered them; if not for them, he might not have escaped last ti.
Li imdiately ingratiated himself, “It’s an honor to serve Lord Xue Long.
If possible, I would like to assist you this ti as well.” Hearing this, Xue Long understood Li’s implication—he felt safer staying by Xue Long’s side, away from the front lines.
However, Xue Long did not care at all; to him, even if they had saved him once, what then?
Was it that if he were in danger again, Li and Gu Fan wouldn’t save him?
It was the duty of his subordinates, and why shouldn’t it be, as he was a noble?
So, Xue Long simply responded, “I already have people helping here; go assist others instead.” “Okay!” Li’s expression turned sowhat awkward, Xue Long’s intentions clear, leaving Li nothing to say.
Li and Gu Fan promptly left, catching up with the main force.
Li then looked back at the distant tents with dissatisfaction.
Gu Fan consoled him, “Let it go, don’t be upset.
Their status and position are clear; whatever they say goes.” “Seriously, if it weren’t for us last ti, he wouldn’t have made it back alive,” Li was indignant, feeling it unworthy to risk their lives for such people.
Gu Fan just smiled subtly, “So what if we didn’t save him?
He’s of the Xue Clan.
If sothing happened to him, we wouldn’t get away unscathed either.
Just for that reason alone, it’s enough.” The main force was made up of ordinary soldiers leading the charge.
Over a hundred n were divided into five squads, twenty in each, spreading out to search while maintaining contact through communication equipnt.
Gu Fan and Li were in the third squad, advancing cautiously.
Everyone knew they were up against the Hunter’s Guild’s best of the best, not an enemy they could take on easily—if they encountered them, they likely wouldn’t stand a chance.
The squad leader was quite considerate, emphasizing repeatedly that if they ran into the Hunter’s Guild, they shouldn’t try to shoot, just turn and run without looking back, even scattering to increase their chances of returning alive.
Li was worried, “If we scatter, aren’t we at risk of encountering vampiric creatures?
Although most have been wiped out, so still roam Dark Primitive Mountain.” The squad leader was aware but helpless; that was just the situation.
With morale low, Gu Fan offered, “We are five squads in total; it may not be us who encounters the Hunter’s Guild elite first.
Perhaps the people from the other two nobilities will.” With this perspective, the chance of returning alive seed quite good.
Li grimaced, “We still need to ensure every mber of the Xue Clan makes it back, or else we’ll be in trouble; Organization X won’t spare us either.” So felt Li was overthinking; the Xue Clan mbers were so capable, they hardly needed protection.
Li didn’t respond; if these people had experienced the battle at the town warehouse last ti, they wouldn’t think this way.
Gu Fan was curious about the last battle; what technique the Hunters had used that caused Xue Long to lose his regenerative abilities so quickly.
If this thod were spread, it would be a heavy blow to the vampires.
