“I can join your team, but I want to be the leader,” Tearless said bluntly.
“That will not work, we have three people.”
“I have the highest level and the best equipment, who else can be the leader besides me?” Tearless said, then she raised the staff in her hand. That sapphire at the top of the staff sent out cold wind, which was indicating that it was a Kenrito Ice Staff, the best weapon for Mages under level 20. It could even be used till level 30, and the Auction House was selling it for $500 each. Only rich players would buy it for levelling.
She seemed to be rich. Hell Baron’s Father stopped complaining and said, “Okay, you can be the leader.”
“That’s right.” Tearless took over the position of team leader and was satisfied immediately. At this time, most of the players had gathered in teams, and Professional Player 007’s team was grouped. Hence, the huge Adventurer team of 70 to 80 people headed to Night Whisper Village.
As expected, when the two teams of Adventurers with the size of 80 members rushed to the gate of Night Whisper Village, the group of human Bandits guarding the gate fought hard to resist. But with only one round of long range attacks from the Adventurers, the few human Bandits were all killed.
Then they continued to attack all the way. The first unlucky one was Blake Rhode’s men. Blake had been very cautious about tonight’s mission. He had deliberately left all his main subordinates near the exit of the village, and had only brought a small number of cannon fodder into the village for robbery. Thus, once the situation was not good, he could leave immediately.
However, things didn’t turn out as planned. He never expected the Adventurers to attack from the outside of the village, and he became the scapegoat that was directly caught in a jar.
Blake Rhode found an opportunity quickly. Once he saw that the situation was not good, he hurried to join Derek. With their teams combined and bringing more Kobolds to act as cannon fodder, they started a counterattack when they gathered more than 100 members in their team.
Looking only at the momentum, their team was not worse than the Adventurers, and their formation was much more orderly than the Adventurers’ team, which consisted of various jobs. But the problem was that the game depended on the skills and stats, not their formation.
Even though they had twice the quantitative advantage, the monsters were defeated as expected due to the weakness of having a single fighting mode when facing the Adventurers. On the Adventurers’ side, various AOE spells, such as Multiple Arrow and Bursting Flame, were casted, there was a row of tanks in front for close combat, and at the back, there were many healing jobs to help to heal. In contrast, the composition of the monsters’ team was very simple. They only had long range or close combat, which were impossible to defeat the Adventurers with.
When the small monsters rushed up, they were attacked by the AOEs of the other side before they could take any move. In an instant, they were either dead or injured. Then the tank rushed over as if he was cutting vegetables, which destroyed their formation immediately.
“F*ck, what the hell is this? Hurry up and run. F*ck, we were set up by that stinky Goblin today!”
Derek and Blake Rhode scolded as they ran, and some of their subordinates survived as they quickly grasped the chance to run with them, while some others were dead immediately.
However, it was not so easy to run away. These two Bosses were targeted by the players as soon as they showed their faces, and how could the players let go of such a good chance? Hence, they were chased badly. Although Blake Rhode was a Bandit, he had not learned the Stealth Move (Poor monster, it can’t learn Stealth Move even though it’s above level 10).
Blake was slowed down by a Frost Arrow, and was knocked to the ground immediately by a group of people. Golden Tooth was even more sad—it had a common face, so nobody noticed him when he was with the Kobolds. He was killed by a random AOE and dropped a large number of equipment, and only then did the attacker notice that they killed a Boss.
Only Gnoll Derek managed to escape. He had a Wild Body skill, which allowed him to ignore the effects of slowing skills for a short time. However, at this time, he was too scared to run towards the village, so he met Xiao Yu halfway.
“It’s over, it’s completely over, we’re dead!” Derek was despairing, and was furious when he saw Xiao Yu. “Damn, I heard your plan and decided to attack the novice village. Do you have a tiny bit of conscience? Why did I listen to you? F*ck, I’m going to be killed by the plot!”
Xiao Yu thought that he was really weak. Why did he start panicking so easily? When he was killed as a Three Skeleton Level Demonic Blaze Overlord, he did not act so shamefully! He comforted him and said, “Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. Don’t panic, Boss Derek, there might be a favorable turn.”
“WHAT THE HELL is a favourable turn? Blake and Golden Tooth were both dead, and you still have the mood to talk about a favorable turn?”
Xiao Yu smiled and said, “Think about this. Normally, the four of us would have an equal share of Night Whisper Village, and we couldn’t do anything but get along peacefully. Now both of them are dead, together with their teams. As long as we can escape, we can share the territory equally. When we open sub bases and recruit more younger brothers, our forces can definitely become stronger.”
Eh, that’s right! Derek was also pleased to hear this. There were five Monster Camps in Night Whisper Village (including their Monster Camps), and the number was fixed. With the two vacant now, they could develop their forces.
“But wait a minute, we have to be able to get out first. How can we fight against the Adventurers at this point? The exits are all blocked, there’s nowhere we can run to.”
“Don’t worry, I have a backup plan. Now, you need to meet with Death Claw quickly. The Archdruid is about to die, we’ll leave once it is killed.”
Hearing that he could have a chance to take the last hit, Derek’s greedy thoughts came out. “Okay, I’ll go and help now.”
Seeing Derek turned around and leave, Xiao Yu was glad that he had finally gone away. He did not have any backup plan in mind, and he might die soon. But before he died, he had to send the Elemental Seed out.
“You have a backup plan? That is surprising. I’m just curious, what kind of backup plan do you have at this stage?” A voice was sounded near his ears, and the figure of Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser appeared again. The dagger in her hand was covered with blood, and there were many traces of burns and ice on her body, which made her look a bit wretched.
“Eh, you are finally here. Where did you go?”
“I went to kill the Adventurers for you. Just now, a group of Adventurers came here and I helped you deal with them. If not, do you really think that there wouldn’t be any Adventurers at your side? But to be honest, these Adventurers are hard to deal with. I can manage three or five of them, but if there are more, I can’t help.”
They could not do anything about it. This was not a game where one could defeat everything even at a high level, because there was no concept of hierarchical repression. Restrictive spells were also useful against high-level characters, hence even high-level players dare not to guarantee that they could win when they were facing a team of low-level players who had good cooperation.
