Chapter 844 -707: Mage
The general’s eyes suddenly widened.
Immediately after, a fierce light flashed through the eyes hidden in the gaps of the armor plates as he forcefully sat up, drawing the battle axe that had been on his back.
Coincidentally, his weapon was also a battle axe.
Moreover, it was sharper and heavier than the blood-stained strange axe of Xu Shuo.
The general’s reaction amidst the shock was swift.
With a roar, the steel-forged battle axe was firmly grasped in his hands, swinging non-stop to meet force with force, chopping towards the axe falling from above!
“Clang!”
The sound of the axes colliding was deafening!
Descending, Xu Shuo stepped on the horse’s helmet.
His gaze was calm as he stared at the general in front of him.
In the next moment, the general who had blocked the axe’s attack roared again, a tremendous force transferred from his battle axe, violently toppling Xu Shuo, who was standing on the horse’s helmet.
As the young man was about to drift down,
he was about to steer his horse to directly ram into him.
However, the whole person suddenly stiffened.
The general’s body became rigid as if pause had been pressed, and then uncontrollably began to tremble.
His throat emitted a “gurgle” sound as blood surged from the gaps of the helmet and armor, quickly drenching his body, the fresh red flowing down along the horse’s chainmail.
In the end, the general’s body lost balance and fell from the fiercely running war horse.
Powerless, he toppled to the ground, soon concealed by the rolling dust kicked up by the iron hooves, and flung to the rear by countless horses.

The general had been beheaded.
So, the final outcome was,
This general didn’t last even half a minute under the axe of “Hunt Moment”, becoming a restless spirit, caught completely off-guard and perishing abruptly.
Xu Shuo felt it was abrupt.
However, this result also seemed to indicate that the general who led the ambush and pursuit was likely not a player.
Given the means of the players at the third level assessment stage, they would not have died so easily.
Probably.
However, judging from the previous charge,
This army, comprised of both light and heavy cavalry, was clearly a death warrior legion, determined to bury him here; hence, even though the general had been beheaded by a mysterious method,
they still charged fearlessly.
Xu Shuo’s gaze swiftly swept across the encirclement, seeming to search for something, but then he grabbed the general’s horse and leaped onto it.
Facing the charge of the heavy cavalry,
Staying on horseback was the most appropriate defense.
Sharp spears stabbed toward him from all sides, and behind the tight gaps of the steel helmets were pairs of cold, cruel eyes, and further away, light cavalry lined up, raising their crossbows.
Xu Shuo was now charging towards the direction where it was easier to break through the light cavalry’s formation.
But those sharp crossbow arrows had already targeted him.
The next moment, the crossbow arrows were released!
Zing—
The whizzing sound of piercing the air surged suddenly, as arrows swift as lightning flew towards the youth in the center, sparing neither the surrounding heavy cavalry nor their horses.
Xu Shuo’s gaze flickered briefly, he whirled under the horse’s belly, his silver hair spreading out as it touched the ground.
Whiz, whiz, whiz—
The arrow rain pinned heavily on the ground, also ricocheting off the heavy cavalry’s armor, sweeping across the horses’ frontal plate armor, and harshly embedding into their side flesh and blood.
As the horse reared up in pain and neighed, Xu Shuo quickly let go and landed, rolling smoothly before lying stable on the ground.
The next instant, the already wounded horse was knocked flying by a charging heavy cavalryman, both crashing heavily into the ground, with dust permeating the entire valley.
He was surrounded by countless cavalrymen, with numerous spears stabbing towards his landing spot.
Single-handedly resisting thousands of troops.
To be honest, Xu Shuo himself felt that he wasn’t yet capable of achieving this.
Not to mention that this was a frenzied death warrior legion.
After Xu Shuo fell to the ground, his robe was already covered in dust, and even the setting sun could no longer make his silver-white hair shine bright.
The rumble of iron cavalry filled his ears.

Innumerable attacks poured down!
The power of Radiance’s light converged on the axe, Xu Shuo lifted the axe and furiously slammed it heavily onto the ground!
“Boom!”
The explosive force instantly flipped the charging cavalry, and amidst the neighing of horses, the battlefield’s center was thrown into chaos with men and horses tumbling over, dust spreading amidst the disorder.
Xu Shuo didn’t pause for a moment, snatched up another war horse and leaped on, his handsome face now icy cold.
Yet at the very next moment, a piercing whistle came from within the dust, Xu Shuo abruptly turned his head to dodge the spear stabbing at his head, but he couldn’t evade the crossbow arrow piercing through the dust.
Thwick!
The crossbow arrow punctured his shoulder deeply until the feather fletching, the huge impact also causing him to lean back momentarily.
Xu Shuo abruptly looked towards the archer.
His face was expressionless, the meaning in his eyes unclear.
Within the light cavalry formation, the tightly closed armor made it impossible to discern the archer’s expression, but at that moment, the archer’s body seemed to stiffen.
Xu Shuo hastily grabbed the crossbow arrow and snapped it, clutching it tightly in his hand, the next moment swiftly flinging it forward.
Whiz—
The crossbow arrow emitted a golden light as it skimmed through the air.
With the speed of lightning, it shot back along its path.
Before the crossbowman could react, the light had already pierced through his forehead, the momentum unabated until it ran through the chest of another cavalryman behind him, and the arrow itself shattered directly.
