Chapter 441: The Golden Cicada Thieves (2 in 1 order)

When the game live broadcast reached this point, G-chan began to recall the characteristics of the game's combat system reflected in the previous battle.

After this exhilarating duel, she was actually a little trance-like, with every wonderful moment of the battle with her master constantly echoing in her mind.

She turned her head to face the camera, took a deep breath, and said to the audience with great passion:
"Dear audience friends, you all saw it, didn't you? That battle with Master just now was truly magnificent and thrilling!"

"First of all, I found that the combat system of this game is very tricky. Not only does it require proficiency in various unique martial arts, but it also requires a deep understanding of one's own internal strength.

You see, in the first few rounds, although my moves were very precise and sharp, I was still inferior to Master and was firmly suppressed by him."

Then, G-chan called up the character's panel.

"That's because my internal energy wasn't yet at its peak, and I couldn't fully integrate the Qi within my body. Every killing move I made was a little awkward and sluggish, making it easy for Master to see through and exploit my flaws."

As G-chan spoke, he kept sliding the character panel, as if his whole body was once again placed in the scene of the fierce battle.

"But it doesn't matter, because the goal of practicing in the game is to cultivate internal strength to the highest level. When I gradually entered the middle stage and finally mastered the secret of harnessing the true energy, you all saw how sharp, steady and agile my moves were. My punches and footwork instantly became as smooth as flowing water. Although I haven't completely suppressed Master yet, I can already hold my own against him and even fight him off!"

"And in the last ten or so rounds, when my entire being had become like water and clouds, and my inner strength had reached an unprecedented peak, each of my attacks emitted a resounding sword energy, and suddenly broke through the master's resistance that was difficult for the master!"

G-chan's tone gradually became higher, and he couldn't help but throw a few punches and palms in the air, bringing back the fighting spirit and ambition he had at that time.

After a brief aftertaste, the game live broadcast continued.

……

The night was dark, a bright moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight outlined the contours of Beiwuyin Mountain in Linshui County.

At the foot of the mountain, a large camp called Jianjia Pass was built against the mountain, brightly lit and heavily guarded. Hidden among the mountains of relief supplies in the camp was Zhong Wuye's target: the Golden Cicada Bandits.

Before this, Zhong Wuye got information from an informant and learned that the Golden Cicada Thieves Gang was going to commit a crime here.

Late at night, Zhong Wuye, dressed in tight clothes, led the Liuli Group soldiers to sneak to the foot of the mountain.

She made a gesture, and the members of the Liuli Group quietly dispersed and prepared to launch a surprise attack.

The game pops up a prompt: [Please sneak into the camp without alerting the guards]

G-chan focused her attention for a moment and suddenly realized her vision had changed. She seemed to have transformed into a crow, flying high up, overlooking the entire camp.

"Wow, so this aerial reconnaissance process came first!"

The comments were full of complaints: "What Assassin's Creed."

G-chan controlled the crow's perspective to hover over the camp, observing the deployment of every important location as if it were his own treasure.

Sure enough, she soon discovered a group of thieves with shabby clothes and ferocious looks gathering in a corner. They seemed to be members of the Golden Cicada Thieves Gang.

G-chan seized the opportunity and let the crow fly all the way, giving him a panoramic view of the terrain of the entire camp and the specific location of the thieves.

Finally, she quickly pressed a button while a crow was flying over a low wall. The screen suddenly went dark, and when she opened her eyes again, the normal third-person perspective had returned to normal.

"It's amazing! This unique perspective modeled using the somatosensory cabin makes reconnaissance and tactical deployment so cool!" G-chan said to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"And this way, we can have a complete overview of the entire battlefield beforehand, laying the perfect foundation for the subsequent bandit suppression operations. It's simply brilliant!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Wuye turned around and sneaked into the camp under the control of G-chan.

Nimble as a swallow, she narrowly avoided wave after wave of guards, gliding through the depths of the territory. Looking around, Zhong Wuye realized the terrain was incredibly complex and varied, as this was originally a testing ground filled with traps and traps. He couldn't help but startle, silently cursing his misfortune. He needed to remain vigilant and watch his step at all times.

As expected, when passing a cave in the center of the camp, Zhong Wuye suddenly felt his feet go empty. He was covered by a huge net from the ground and hung upside down in the air.

"I didn't expect there were even such ground traps! This level is really tricky!" G-chan exclaimed nearby. She was a little anxious, but she quickly calmed down and manipulated Zhong Wuye into a series of moves: first, with a backhand throw, he launched a dart, accurately hitting the mechanism holding the trap. After the trap was disarmed, Zhong Wuye drew the dwarf sword from his waist, using it as leverage to support himself. After a few maneuvers, he finally escaped the shackles.

Thus, under G-chan's heroic command, Zhong Wuye navigated countless traps and obstacles: stepping over venomous mines, circumventing lightning and fire, dodging dart mazes, traversing fantasy worlds with the aid of a bamboo dragonfly, and even soaring across them with a flying sword. Each stage, testing his strength, wit, and courage, made the entire anti-bandit journey an unprecedented thrill. Finally, Zhong Wuye finally discovered the Golden Cicada thieves' lair, waiting for a single strike to bring the gang to justice.

……

The night breeze blew gently, and the bright moonlight outlined the northern Wuyin Mountain in Linshui County. At the Jianjia Pass camp, groups of slovenly, ferocious-looking thieves gathered. They were none other than the long-rumored Golden Cicada Bandits.

They were all imposing and impressive, dressed in casual attire, swords slung from their waists, their faces dusty with the air of a knight. The leader, a massive figure with a wild and unruly face, eyes like steel, thick eyebrows and a long beard, looked like the ambitious, world-conquering leader of a band of thieves. It was none other than Qin Huan, the leader of the Golden Cicada Bandits.

At this moment, the Liuli Corps, led by Zhong Wuye, had quietly infiltrated the Golden Cicada Thieves' headquarters. G-chan, manipulating Zhong Wuye with agility, dodged wave after wave of guards, now within striking distance of Qin Huan. Just as she was about to order Zhong Wuye to deploy his forces for a decisive battle against the Golden Cicada Thieves, she suddenly realized her control perspective was obscured by a mist, and she was drifting further and further away. When the mist dissipated, G-chan saw herself transformed into a small snake, crouching not far from Qin Huan's desk, overhearing the thieves' conversation.

"Brother, I heard that all the civil and military officials in the court are going to take complete action against us based on this relief operation. We must act quickly!" A courageous minion said to Qin Huan.

Qin Huan laughed heartily upon hearing this, his heroic voice deafening: "Good boy, do you think that after so many years of roaming the martial arts world, I am not familiar with the ways of the world? I have heard that the old thief Taishi is taking advantage of this opportunity to get rid of us, the troublemakers! Alas, with such little ability, he dares to challenge the Golden Cicada Thieves! He will be in trouble later!"

As Qin Huan finished his words, Zhong Wuye had already rushed in with remarkable bravery, engaging the Golden Cicada bandits. G-chan lost focus for a moment, then realized his perspective had returned to normal. He saw Zhong Wuye's agility, his punches and kicks swiftly sweeping and beating away several of the minions, sending them flying. But once he arrived, he was surrounded by wolves, provoking even more of the Golden Cicada bandits' masters, and the scene instantly became chaotic.

"Oh, do you think a bunch of you guys with low martial arts skills and mediocre talents can snatch even a single chance of victory from me, Qin Huan?" Qin Huan shouted proudly, brandishing his giant axe as he slowly approached Zhong Wuye, looking ferocious and murderous. Seeing this, the Liuli Group also rushed forward to surround Qin Huan.

Zhong Wuye did not dodge and fought bravely.

Her left hand was a superb swordsman, which transformed into sword shadows that moved around and waved, constantly disrupting the enemy's offensive; her right hand was fierce and could penetrate into the enemy's gaps without any holes.

Just like this, moving forward and backward, the interaction between you and me, actually evolved into a beautiful picture of a fairy with cloud-like hair and flying swords.

Seeing such a good show, the audience in the live broadcast room were stunned and full of admiration.

The masters of the Golden Cicada Thieves present were also weakened by Zhong Wuye's stunning moves, feeling that things were not as easy as they seemed. Only Qin Huan remained calm and composed, relying on his physical strength to violently attack Zhong Wuye.

After just a few rounds, Zhong Wuye was in a desperate situation. He was almost out of strength and could be defeated at any time.

The audience shouted, "Come on, little meat bun! Now is the time to unleash your strongest attack! Let those thieves see the might of your sword!"

So, amidst the obstruction and ridicule of the Golden Cicada Thieves, Zhong Wuye managed to transform himself into a terrifying sword energy, driving his true energy around him, and instantly soared to an unprecedented high level.

When the internal force gathered into a hurricane, Zhong Wuye suddenly raised his sword and shouted wildly, and the shocking sword light burst out, turning into thousands of sword shadows slashing towards Qin Huan! This sword was invincible and mighty! In an instant, Qin Huan's arrogance was suppressed by this amazing sword.

"Stop, stop! I lose, I lose!" Seeing the terrifying sword power approaching, Qin Huan retreated in fear, and finally escaped in a panic at the critical moment. Before leaving, he shouted loudly: "You little bitch, you can succeed for a while, but in a month or so, I will recruit new troops and come back to fight you! But you have to be careful, that old thief Taishi will cooperate with you and will sooner or later betray you!"

After defeating the bandit gang, Qin Huan and others were all arrested.

……

In the center of the camp stood towering mountains of supplies, securely tied with ropes and inscribed with the words "Imperial Court Disaster Relief Supplies." Zhong Wuye glanced around, a suspicion growing in her. She clearly remembered how, upon their arrival, Tai Shibo had repeatedly warned them not to open or inspect the supplies without permission, even hinting at a subtle threat in his words.

Normally, Zhong Wuye was a law-abiding person, rarely disobeying orders from her superiors. Yet, this time, she felt a strange unease and curiosity, as if a voice was calling her to uncover the mystery. So, she resolutely thrust her sword forward, and in a flash of light, a large box was split open.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Zhong Wuye saw that the box contained not disaster relief rations but rather strangely shaped night clothes and gleaming weapons. The cold steelwork, gleaming in the dim sunlight, was inexplicably terrifying.

Zhong Wuye's heart tightened, and Tai Shibo's smirking face flashed through her mind. Although she had harbored many doubts about him, it wasn't until she saw it with her own eyes that she was completely convinced that this was all an elaborate hoax.

At this moment, a deafening sound of horse hooves suddenly came from outside the camp, like the prelude to an impending storm.

As expected, Taishibo's personal guards marched in with a mighty force. Fully armed, they carried an unparalleled ferocity, surrounding the Liuli Group. Taishibo himself rode forward, his eyes sinister, like a condescending judge.

"Tsk tsk tsk, isn't this the court traitor Zhong Wuye? He is so powerful that he even managed to deceive me, a senior official of the court." Tai Shibo said sarcastically, a cruel arc twisting the corners of his lips. He changed the subject and began to criticize Zhong Wuye's actions: "You ignored my advice and opened the supplies without authorization. You are truly unforgivable! What's worse, with the magical power and cunning of your Liuli Group, you caused the nightmare disaster in Linshui County, resulting in the tragic deaths of countless innocent people! Such a serious crime, how can it be forgiven lightly?"

Zhong Wuye was shocked on the spot. She never expected that Tai Shibo, who had respected her so much before, would suddenly turn against her!
Zhong Wuye's face turned ashen, with mixed feelings in his heart, but he said nothing.

Tai Shi Bo seemed to see through her thoughts and added in a fierce voice: "Don't bother to quibble. The court has long held solid evidence of your crimes! Today is the day you will be executed. It's better to surrender and stop resisting!"

Before he finished speaking, bursts of tearing sounds suddenly rang out, like thunder exploding in his ears.

In just a few breaths, dozens of extremely fast black shadows appeared in the sky above the camp, followed by a group of mysterious warriors in black robes descending from the sky, surrounding Tai Shibo's troops. Their masks were embroidered with blood-red rose patterns, and they wielded cold steel knives. Their actions were extremely ferocious, and they looked like they were not good people.

While Taishi Bo's troops were still in a state of bewilderment, the black-clad men had already struck swiftly, their swords slashing and tearing a huge gap in the army's formation! The imperial guards were retreating step by step, screaming in agony, unable to fight back. Seeing this, Zhong Wuye felt the uneasiness in his heart snowball and grow wildly, almost suffocating him.

"Oh my god, it's the nightmare, the nightmare demon is here again!"

But soon, an even more gruesome and terrifying battle unfolded within the camp. As if in response to the murderous men in black, the mist in the center of the camp began to sway and sway, swirling and roaring like a magical circle. When the mist dissipated, countless hideous figures of nightmare demons surged forth, charging forward with a deafening roar.

They transformed into dark shadows, roaming freely throughout the camp, sweeping away anyone or anything that stood in their way! Tai Shibo's personal guards had never experienced such a large-scale battle, let alone these strange creatures they had never seen before. They immediately fled in fear. Even Tai Shibo himself was left fighting alone, his face, always smug, now tinged with fear.

At that moment, a massive Nightmare suddenly lunged at Tai Shibo, its maw agape, fangs, and claws slashing as it roared fiercely. Though battle-hardened, Tai Shibo was no match for this creature. In an instant, he was wounded by the Nightmare's claws, blood pouring out. He rolled on the ground in a state of disarray, clutching his wounds, uttering heartbreaking screams, his face completely disfigured.

Zhong Wuye watched all this coldly, feeling a mixture of emotions. On the one hand, her anger towards Tai Shi Bo had reached its peak, and she felt that he deserved his punishment; but on the other hand, seeing him suffer such torture, she couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy. A tangle of conflicting emotions swirled within her.
