VRMMO: Alter Online - Chapter 66

The next morning when the sun was still rising up, the horns of the war started, Bob didn’t hide the sound of their footsteps as they marched towards the base of Laughing Shadow, excitement was written on his face.

Chris and the others had a grave expression on their faces as they saw their army, every single one of the members was wearing iron armor, what’s more, is that the leader riding a horse has diamond boots and Chest Plate.

“Everyone prepare! they will be here in 20 minutes!” Chris immediately commanded towards the others, she was the second in command when Mark is not there and she was also originally the Guild Master of Laughing Shadows but Mark was much better than her so she gave it to Mark and became the Vice-guild master.

It was enough since it meant that she could stay beside Mark, well, enough of that, the Laughing Shadows only have a small number and collecting materials had been somewhat easy with Mark’s presence.

Everyone had a single piece or two of diamond armor on them, their weapons were custom made using boss monsters materials which have extra effects on hit such as poison or burn damage.

But even with that, Chris and the others could not help but get nervous, this will be their first battle against other players, they are outnumbered and know nothing about their opponents, and the two strongest people in their group also left, it was really nerve-wracking thinking about it.

The ones who will give support stood on top of the walls while Chris and the others stood in front ready to meet the incoming opponents, “Vice-Guild Leader Nyx, you should go and assassinate their commander” Raven suggested.

“I-…” Chris hesitated she was an assassin trained by Mark though she is not as good as him, she was already proficient to kill someone from the back, but if she left, there will be no one who will be in charge of their group, this may cause for their frontline to be defeated.

“Don’t worry Vice-Guild Leader Nyx, we will do our best to not fail you, if we fail here, Guild Leader Nevermore will put us to hell again!” Azi roared loudly as he said the last sentence, just saying it himself was already scary.

Chris looked at them and nodded, “Okay, do the spartan formation now!” Chris commanded, “Awoo!” the others yelled and took out their shields and formed a line with their shields in front, this was a formation Mark taught them on their training which is good for tanking and intercepting a large force or big enemy.

As for their ‘Awoo!’ roars. it was something that Mark added telling them that it will boost their spirits, they were skeptical about it but doing it now, they could feel their blood boiling.

Chris smiled and took out two daggers, both were made of fangs of the tarantula that Mark and her killed, she then took out a necklace made of redwood and wore it on her neck, it was an item Mark created for her when he killed the Plain Treant.

[Plain Treant Blood Wood Necklace]

[Rank- Silver]

[Passive Skill- The Unsuspicious: Once worn, the user will blend with the surroundings turning completely invincible, will only be seen when someone is 3 meters close to the user, the effect will disappear if the user is attacked]

[Cooldown- 10 Seconds before returning to Skill: The Unsuspicious]

Slowly, Chris’s body started to blend with the surroundings turning one with the grass and the colors of the place, then she disappeared completely, the others looked at each other and got ready, they then turned their attention back to the moving army towards them.

Raven took a deep breath and then yelled towards the incoming group, “You are entering the Laughing Shadows Guild Territory! this is a warning leave now!” his voice echoed in the plains and was heard by Bob who was sitting on the horse.

Bob sneered then yelled back, “I am Bob! The Guild Master of the Savage Raider’s Guild! we have come for… WAR!” when he said the last word his voice carried extreme anger as he glared at the group in front of him.

“My Soldiers prepare!” Bob then turned towards his army and yelled once again, and just as he was about to start the charge, he felt a chill coming from his back, he fastly turned his head and saw an arrow aimed towards his head.

*Swooosh! *Clang!

Just as it was about to hit Bob’s face, a sword came parrying the arrow away creating a spark as the sword and arrow collided with each other, Bob face was pale as he lost his balance from his horse and fell to the ground.

“W-what is that!?” Bob exclaimed loudly from fear, he then turned towards the man who blocked the arrow for him who was wearing a black robe.

“A talented archer goes to the back, this is much interesting that I thought,” the black-robed guy said commented then looked upon the walls where White Rabbit was standing with the bow in her hand.

They were 500 feet away from the walls but the arrow was very accurately aimed at Bob’s head, Bob would have lost lots of Hp or even possibly die from that if he did not block it, an archer of this level is something that is very rare.

Bob who was scared shit immediately stood up and rushed towards the back of his army, he felt very humiliated, Bob clenched his fist and half of his run towards the back, he raised his hand and roared loudly.

“Charge! kill all of those bastards!”

With his yell, the army he brought immediately followed his instructions and charged towards the Laughing Shadow Guild, with this, Bob smiled contently, an evil grin appeared on his face, and just as he was about to run away once again.

*Swoosh! *Tak!

“Arghhh!”

Bob squealed from pain as an arrow hit his thigh piercing it, he fell to the ground and rolled around, the soldiers near him immediately went to help him.
