Luyao’s words seemed to have no effect as Liu Feng grew increasingly impatient and asked, “Of course, I already know. I’m asking for the specific method.”
“Well, I’m not sure about that,” Luyao lazily replied. At present, she had secured the position of an assistant. In her mind, she was not far off from becoming the guild master’s wife. Why should she be at Liu Feng’s disposal?
Liu Feng had threatened her before, so she had every reason not to do his bidding. Star Rebel wanted to develop in Rainbow City. As long as she could provide Star Rebel with valuable information, why would she be afraid of someone like Liu Feng?
Han Xing’s choice of the Deathly Tower, an experienced dungeon, was deliberate. The thirty members of the Mad Dragon Guild were the ones who successfully cleared it, ensuring they obtained the maximum experience share.
In a few days, it would be the third week of March, the final week of the guild leaderboard. While others were still unaware of the mechanism for determining the final rankings, Han Xing had already started preparing countermeasures.
The final guild leaderboard would be dictated by battles among the hundred guilds. Rankings would be based on points, and the company would distribute rewards to the top one hundred guilds.
Most players in the Second World were still around Level One or Two, while god gamers had reached Level Three. Han Xing and his top-tier players had already reached Level 4.
However, that was still far from enough. Han Xing’s goal was to transform the Mad Dragon Guild into the leading team in the Second World. Not only was it crucial for him to be strong, but it was equally vital for his guild members to possess equal or greater strength.
Therefore, the players of the Mad Dragon Guild had been busy these past few days, assigned by Han Xing to grind dungeons for experience. The more powerful players were paired with Han Xing to tackle higher-level dungeons.
After days of relentless effort, players in the Second World were on the brink of exhaustion. They received notifications of several record-breaking clears by the Mad Dragon Guild every day. Occasionally, they would see members of the guild repeatedly entering and exiting dungeons, resetting their completion times.
Fortunately, only the first clear had rewards. Otherwise, with the way the Mad Dragon Guild operated, they would have emptied the official rewards. To be honest, ordinary players could not hope to keep up with the efficiency of the Mad Dragon Guild.
They could only look on with envy. Led by a guild master like Star Rebel, the Mad Dragon Guild was destined for greatness.
Such was the significance of Star Rebel’s actions that others were promptly informed. However, they could never be certain of his intentions. Nevertheless, they had a rough idea that he was preparing for the guild leaderboard.
But why were all these preparations focused on grinding experience? Was the upcoming leaderboard somehow related to levels? Several guilds imitated Han Xing and attempted to grind through a few simple dungeons.
However, this approach not only proved to be extremely slow but also hindered the progress of their respective guilds. After trying to follow the trend for a day or two, these players eventually gave up on the idea.
No matter how exhausting the game became these days, Han Yanran always had a meal waiting for Han Xing when he logged off.
Shangguan Xuelan’s comment in the game sparked suspicions about Han Yanran, prompting Han Xing to spend more time observing her.
This observation did not reveal any significant findings, and Han Xing was almost ready to give up. But today, when Han Yanran offered to bring him some fruits from the kitchen, she did not return after a long while. When he went to the kitchen, he found Han Yanran lying on the floor.
He did not immediately call Shangguan Xuelan. It was already too late.
Han Xing first contacted the Third People’s Hospital of Rainbow City. Zhang Huaimin, who was already interested in Han Yanran’s condition, rushed over as soon as he received Han Xing’s call.
After a thorough examination, Zhang Huaimin reassured the anxious Han Xing, saying, “Don’t worry, your sister is just a bit weak and needs some nourishment. She should stick to a light diet for now.”
After applying a revitalizing remedy to Han Yanran, she woke up within minutes.
“Professor Zhang,” Han Xing expressed his thoughts when seeing Zhang Huaimin off. “Professor Zhang, the Third Hospital of Rainbow City merged with another hospital before. I wonder if you have heard about it.”
Zhang Huaimin pondered for a moment. “Indeed, there was such a merger, but that was many years ago.”
“Do the files from the merged hospital still exist?”
Han Xing’s voice was gentle, not raising any suspicion. Zhang Huaimin explained, “These files may not be considered valuable, but they are confidential documents of the hospital. What do you want to find?” “Information about my sister’s background.” Han Xing did not conceal his intentions and briefly explained Han Yanran’s situation. Zhang Huaimin did not expect there to be so many hidden details.
“Alright, 1’11 look into it. If I find any valuable information, I’ll inform you immediately.”
“Thank you, Professor Zhang. To be honest, if 1 were to investigate by myself, I probably wouldn’t uncover anything significant. After all, I’m not a professional doctor, and these matters are not my expertise.”
Now, with Zhang Huaimin’s help, Han Xing could finally put his mind at ease.
March 20, 2024.
The final week of the guild leaderboard battle began. Through their relentless grinding, Han Xing and his team members had reached an astonishing Level Five, while the god gamers had reached Level Four.
Once the leaderboard was announced today, the guilds finally understood why Han Xing had been relentlessly grinding for experience. It was evident that he had inside information. 0then-vise, how could he be so well-informed?
However, most of these remarks were just players teasing each other, and no one had any evidence to prove that Han Xing had obtained any information.
Every day, dozens of battles took place on the guild leader board, with each guild fighting at least ninety-nine rounds. Each guild started with an initial score of hundred points, and points were added or deducted based on their performance in each battle.
In the end, the leaderboard was determined by the accumulated points. When Han Xing saw the rewards for the leaderboard, he could not help but feel excited.
The leaderboard reward would grant the player with the highest damage output in the guild ten random items. These ten items included advanced techniques and job transfer scrolls for various classes. With a stroke of luck, he might obtain all ten valuable items.
Han Xing’s skills were still quite limited, even though he had reached Level Five. Once he reached Level Ten and left the novice village, the number of battles would increase even more, thus he needed to quickly become stronger. The top position was within his grasp.
Organized by the company, the guild leaderboard tournament not only featured corresponding spectator seats but also initiated a live broadcast activity, providing match commentary to the major broadcasters of the Second World.
The King’s Guild and White Rainbow Guild have already dropped out of the top hundred rankings. However, the Divine General Guild and Giant Wave Guild had good luck this time and smoothly advanced to the final round.
A total of eleven domestic guilds made it into the top hundred this time. The guilds from countries R, M, and H had the highest representation. It was evident that other countries had significantly fewer guilds.
If they could secure a good position within the top hundred, the prestige and value that came with it would be incredibly high..
