“Why aren’t the players from the guilds leveling up on the farm? What happened?”
“I don’t know. I saw the players heading towards the depths of the Novice Village. The monsters here are all of Level 10. No one dares to follow them there.”
“I think something important happened. Otherwise, the players wouldn’t have all left.”
“Why do you need to discuss instead of taking advantage of this opportunity to level up? Have you completed your quest?”
“I heard the news that a Boss has appeared there. I don’t know what level it is. Those large guilds are rich and can get a few hundred players to finish the quest.”
“The Tyrant Guild and Assassin Guild seem to have joined forces. Over a thousand people are heading inside.”
“I wonder how the other guilds will react.”
“It has nothing to do with us. At most, we’ll go and join in the fun.”
Su Jin browsed through the chat messages. A thought flashed through his mind, and he sent out a message in the chat room, “Tyrant Guild and Assassin Guild have both gone on the quest. Didn’t the Rosette Guild go too? That’s the first Boss in the Novice Village.”
“They will gain fame and reward if they defeat the Boss.”
“They’ve already made their move, but they’ve hidden it from the outside world. Rosette Guild has split up and entered.”
“It seems like all the guilds have gone on the quest. I didn’t see any guild members at the leveling point. Normally, they wouldn’t leave monsters for solo players like us to level up.”
“I wonder who will be the one who gets the Boss in the end.”
When Su Jin saw this, he immediately felt relieved. He raised his hand and closed the chat room. His attention was on the Blackwater Cave again.
Only when the situation became chaotic could he find an opportunity to intervene. Otherwise, it would be much tougher to compete with a few guilds at once.
As time passed, the first to arrive was the Tyrant Guild. A total of 500 people with the same guild prefix lined up and moved forward like an army. They all had smiles on their faces and held all kinds of weapons in their hands.
Following closely behind was the Assassin Guild. The two guilds joined forces and were much faster than the other guilds.
The Assassin Guild also had 500 players. The two guilds added up to 1,000 players. However, the majority players’ levels were low, about Level 4.
The Blackwater Cave was large enough for them all to get in.
Both sides did not leave anyone behind to watch the cave entrance. If they could defeat the Boss, they had to stay alert and prevent the other guilds from coming and snatching their rewards. If they could not defeat the Boss, it would be none of their concern anymore.
In that case, it was necessary for them to reduce their members, no matter what kind of situation they would face.
If someone killed them, their deaths would be in vain.
Not long after the Tyrant Guild and the Assassin Guild entered the cave, Scarlet Rose and her Rosette Guild arrived. They had even contacted the Greed Wolf Guild. It seemed that they had already reached an initial agreement and joined forces.
Seeing that the four guilds had entered, a group of solo players went in with them.
Their thoughts were simple. What if they were able to snatch the last kill of the Boss? The reward would only belong to the person who killed the Boss. Others would not be able to share it with the person.
However, they wanted to try their luck.
It did not matter if the guilds hunted them down in the future if they succeeded this time. They could turn to the opposing guilds.
Su Jin was not in a hurry to enter. He waited for another half an hour before he got up and set off.
With the 310,000 HP supporting the Boss, the players could not finish it off so quickly. It was impossible even if thousands of players surrounded and attacked it. After all, not everyone had the attack damage and skills like Su Jin.
In addition to the Blue-eyed Spider’s abnormal skill, it was enough to make it troublesome for the guilds.
After entering the cave, Su Jin saw the guild players surrounding and attacking the Blue-eyed Spider. Thousands of players spread out and attacked the Blue-eyed Spider. The Blue-eyed Spider’s HP reduced as the attack continued.
– 30
– 25
– 12
– 9
– 7
Most of the players’ attacks were not high. Only a few players could deal significant damage. However, it was only tiny damages to the Blue-eyed Sider, who had a very high HP.
Meanwhile, the Blue-eyed Spider could kill several players each time it attacked.
Two guilds alone could not take it down. The four guilds began to join forces and corporate.
“I might as well let the players battle with the Boss for a while. Hope they won’t disappoint me,” Su Jin looked at the Blue-eyed Spider’s remaining 250,000 HP and was a little relieved.
Tyrant Knight and Scarlet Rose commanded the players of the two guilds to attack while paying attention to the situation around them.
The battle continued. Under the joint efforts of thousands of players, the Blue-eyed Spider’s HP decreased bit by bit. The players had also paid a great price.
As time passed, the Blue-eyed Spider’s HP had only 20% left…
Another 15% left…
Another 10% left…
When the Blue-eyed Spider’s HP had only 10% left, which was 30,000 HP, all the players from the four guilds went insane.
The Blue-eyed Spider was about to die. As long as they could get the last hit, the experience and rewards of the Blue-eyed Spider would be theirs. The experience they gained from the game belonged to them, even though they might not be able to keep the rewards to themselves. They had also snatched it under the siege of three guilds. There would be another reward after the quest.
There was no more cooperation or deal among the guilds. Everyone was going for the Blue-eyes Spider.
The players all increased their damage output and started to attack like maniacs.
The solo players at the back were also excited. The Boss was right in front of them. If they could get the last hit and sell the rewards to one of the guilds, wouldn’t they make a fortune out of it?
However, the smiles on the solo players’ faces didn’t last long before they froze.
Meanwhile, Tyrant Knight and Scarlet Rose spoke to their vice president. Then they commanded their players to fight the Boss.
The vice presidents instructed 50 people from each guild and surrounded the solo players behind them. Each of the members pointed their weapons at the solo players.
In the Novice Village’s square, streaks of lights shot out from the ground one after another.
The Tyrant Guild, Rosette Guild, Greed Wolf Guild, and the Assassin Guild led some of their men to slay the solo players, preventing them from snatching away the last kill.
Although the guild players had outnumbered the solo players, the solo players had to fight those guild players who stood in their way and resist the guild players that had resurrected behind them.
It was an attack from both sides. The solo players had no choice and were slain and resurrected in the resurrection point.
Su Jin quietly looked around. He wanted to break out, but he feared that he might miss it.
Suddenly, a familiar sweet voice rang in his ears.
“Ding! Detected that the host is in danger. Do you want to top up 10 dollars and get a hidden skill?”
A smile flashed across Su Jin’s face as he quickly chose to top up.
“Ding! Top up successful! Ten dollars has been deducted automatically from the host’s bank card.”
“Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hidden skill, [Stealth]!”
Skill: [Stealth Mode] (purple)
Effect: It makes the host’s body go invisible. Movement speed increased by 50% for 5 minutes. Cooldown: 180 minutes.
Su Jin blinked his eyes and suppressed his excitement. Instead of using it immediately, he took the lead and dashed out of the cave.
With his Level 10 attribute panel and the equipment on him, the guild players could not stop him at all.
“It’s that solo player,” The vice president saw Su Jin running out of the cave. He hesitated for a moment but did not ask anyone to chase after Su Jin.
The vice president’s focus right now was still on the Boss. If things went wrong, the four guilds would start a war..
