Chapter 257 – Friday's Weaknesses?

February 22nd .

Li Jing was looking at her skill status as she was thinking if she should join the frontline with Sun Fang or not .

This year, she had already borrowed Sun Fang's lifespans to rebuy two more skills, but there were still eight more skills that she had to get back .

*******************

Although the skills were powerful, Li Jing was not confident that her skills would be useful against the ghost soldier that Sun Fang had encountered .

Li Jing planned to disguise herself as a scout and mix in with Sun Jian's men to the frontline . If she could catch a sight of Xiao Wu, Li Jing could use the [Weakness Detection] on her so she could know a bit more about this otherworlder enemy .

However, the plan was too risky as this Xiao Wu had a dangerous skill that they could not find a way to counter it, the ghost soldier .

'This is so complicated . If it's just us against the ordinary people, we could have won easily . Now, it's about which reincarnator faction that can dominate the country first . But, it's also my chance . If I can kill her, I can complete my system quest and get another skill back . '

A clan message alert woke Li Jing from her trance .

Cheng Pu: We're heading out today .

Cheng Pu: There's an intel about a bandit group in the east .

Cheng Pu: I'm going after them .

Huang Gai: Good luck .

Huang Gai: I'm staying in Guanzong for now .

Huang Gai: No intel from my men yet .

Huang Gai and Cheng Pu had joined Sun Fang and Li Jing's clan this year, which made their clan an official clan level one, which was eligible to obtain the clan quest .

************************

>

Quest Objective: Occupy at least one county or a Commandery city .

Reward:

- 10,000 Lifespan Pool for each Commandery occupied .

- One Shopping Pass for each Commandery occupied .

- 1,000 Lifespan Pool for each county occupied .

- Rewards are given at the end of each year .

************************

The rewards were attractive, but they had to go through a lot of troubles as Sun Jian and Li Jing's family had not obtained a headquarter city that could be their home ground yet .

Sun Jian was still a servant of Tao Qian this year . He was not even a governor of a small county!

Li Jing read the chat messages and sighed .

'This war can be an opportunity for Sun Jian to reap some recognition and rewards, but the opponent is different than in history . They are not illiterate bandits, but veteran soldiers with proper leaders! The risk is too high!'

>

Another message came from Sun Jian .

"Our scout detected a 1,000-man unit of light cavalries west of Guanzong . Xiao Wu is leading the troops herself!"

The message gave Li Jing a bit of hope . This was a good chance that she could scout Xiao Wu's weaknesses .

The Lust Soul of Friday had a limited range of operation as the soul did not belong to her . Thus, she could only deploy the soul in a radius of 10 kilometers . If the soul had gone outside of her range, Friday would have a rough time trying to control the soul .

It was frustrating for her . Had it been her [Soul of Sins] which she had awakened them herself, she could have sent it 1,000 kilometers away without a problem .

The limitation of 10 kilometers forced her to move closer to Guanzong as she had planned to deploy the soul to attack Sun Jian Army .

As Friday and 1,000 bodyguards got closer to Guanzong, her eyes caught a suspicious black dot, which was flying in the sky .

Sun Fang was there!

'That guy is here . I can't let my men get closer!'

"Men, loose formation! Keep your eyes in the sky . There will be a magic attack coming from above . Get ready to dodge the explosive magic!"

Friday took a spear from a spear package on horseback behind her . Because of the lesson on the other day, Friday took extra spears with her so she could throw it at Sun Fang if he were to show up again .

The bundle of spears contained 20 spears . In addition, the bodyguards were also carrying the same spear package with them as spares for Friday .

It did not take long that a ball of [Qi Blast] was flying toward Friday and her subordinates .

As the energy ball was coming down, a spear was thrown and made contact with it in mid-air .

*BOOM*

The [Qi Blast] exploded the moment it contacted with Friday's spear, saving the lives of her bodyguards .

"My turn, boy!"

Friday threw another spear at Sun Fang, who was still floating in the air . At the same time, the transparent spirit of Lust Soul exited Friday's body and chased after Sun Fang .

*DONG*

The spear hit Sun Fang's shield . The young man who received the attack watched the following ghost soldier in horror .

"I knew it! That ghost is her skill! It's like some kind of JoJo's stand!"

Sun Fang had not flown away even though the naked ghost was coming at him . The reason he had to stay and "tank" the damages because there was a hidden group of horsemen who were sneaking closer to Friday .

As planned, Li Jing was sneaking with her troops to use her [Weakness Detection] on Friday .

*DONG*

*DONG*

Flying spears came one after another . Sun Fang tried to fly around to dodge all of it, yet he failed as the ghost soldier blocked his escape path .

Sun Fang kept his distance from Lust Soul as her spear could cause more damage to his lifespans than the throwing spears . As he continued to escape from the soul, the flight patterns of both Sun Fang and Lust Soul became visible to all people on the ground .

It became a dogfight in the sky .

The attention of Friday and her bodyguards were on the sky, which they failed to notice the oncoming troops .

*RUMBLE*

A group of 5,000 light cavalries managed to get into the range of one kilometer without being detected by Friday and her scouts . Li Jing galloped her horse on the front, leading her soldiers .

By the time that the bodyguards noticed their troops, they were already 500 meters in front of them .

Li Jing's eyes stared straight at Friday, who still had her attention on Sun Fang .

'[Weakness Detection]!' Li Jing activated her skill and series of information appeared .

**************************

Long details about Friday appeared in her system log messages, which astonished Li Jing . She skipped a few irrelevant information, such as her immoral lifestyles and her sex life, and focused on Friday's secret and her combat weaknesses .

To Li Jing's disappointment, Friday did not have a weakness that both Li Jing and Sun Fang could exploit in the current battlefield .

'There are many hints, but we won't survive if we fight her head-on! We don't even know how to destroy her [Lust Soul]! And what is this soul thing!? The secret said she doesn't have a skill, but why can she using it? I don't understand!'

As Li Jing was confused, her men already misunderstood her order and formed a wedge formation to charge to Friday and her horsemen .

At this moment, Friday already noticed the commotion .

"Nice try, but you picked the wrong opponent . "

Friday summoned her soul back and switched her target from Sun Fang to the charging cavalries . Unlike how she threw her spears at Sun Fang, Friday used less force to increase her speed . As a result, she threw all weapons behind her back in five seconds .

Ten spears pierced through ten riders, who were charging at Friday's squad . The horsemen fell down, leaving the galloping horses without riders .

"Men, turnabout and take out your crossbows! Run away from them and shoot back!" Friday gave her command .

The light cavalries pulled their horses around and began running away from the charging Li Jing's soldiers . Friday also followed after them and took a spear package from a nearby subordinate, but she hung back as their rearguard .

As soon as the running away soldiers managed to adjust their horses, they turned around and aimed their repeating crossbows at the pursuing riders .

Arrow rain arrived at the pursuing horsemen, piercing their bodies and their horses . Several riders collapsed onto the ground with their horses as loud death throes and horse neigh noises covered the battlefield .

The panicked Li Jing leaped off her horse the moment she saw the dense wall of arrows flying in the sky . She placed her hand on to the ground where her shadow was and activated her skill . After which, her body sank into her own shadow and disappeared from the battlefield .

Sun Fang also took this chance to fly away from the battle, leaving the 5,000 horsemen behind .

For less than 5 minutes, the repeating crossbows continued firing until all of them emptied their clips . When Friday's unit observed the battlefield again, the pursuing horsemen were either dead or had escaped .

Friday raised her fist, signaling her soldiers to reform their ranks .

"We're not done over here yet! Follow me!"

The one thousand riders continued marching to Guanzong County, ignoring the injured and crippled enemy soldiers who were shot by their arrows .

Sun Jian's soldiers watched them leave with complicated emotion . They were relieved that they could scrape away with their lives, but the terror of the rumored repeating arrows frightened them .

A thousand soldiers were capable of sending arrow volleys as if there were ten thousands of archers . They had never witnessed anything like this .

"What's next, captain?"

A surviving soldier asked their injured captain, who had broken his legs and had an arrow in his right shoulder . Several hundreds of soldiers were still alive .

"We'll report this to our Lord! We can't fight them head-on!"
