Chapter 121 1 Coin and 1 Eternal Virgin
Vance sat down on a rock and began drawing on the ground. He was making a small map of the area. "If I remember correctly, we are about here. There are five coins in this mountainous region. If we take into account our current location being the tallest peak, then we can get one coin here and then one there, there, there, and there."
"Vance, are you sure they will be there?" Cynthia couldn't help but feel a bit skeptical about it all.
"You should trust your husband more, Cynthia." Alice's voice was slightly cold. She did not like it when people looked down on her man.
"So-Sorry...." Cynthia lowered her head. She really should trust Vance more.
"Don't worry, they will be there. If they are not, that means others found them first. We can only find those players who took them and then kill them." Vance stood up and stretched. "So, for now, let's start in this area. Do not leave any rock unturned. I only know the general area where the coins are located."
He also knew a few exact locations as well, but that was only for like three or four coins. The real trouble came with the players. Because it would not just be him and his group killing people but the other players as well. He had heard of a group of three players that came in third and killed almost two hundred players for all their coins. If they were lucky they would not run into those players.
He knew that those three players eventually started a PK guild, and all they ever did was go around killing players in their free time. They would level enough to keep up with current levels and then spend the rest of the time killing players and stealing their gear and items.
The guild's name was The Underground Cradle. A strange name for a guild but they had a guild emblem with a blood covered baby's cradle which made them look pretty sick. While the emblem was strange, they were really feared in the player community as they would attack anyone no matter what guild you were from. They even took assassination requests as well. They build their guild from the ground up, doing the dirty work of others in Alantina Online.
Not that Vance ever cared about them. They had tried to kill him a few times but being a sword mage, he was not an easy target. He had escaped death a few times during those times but other than that he was truly a master of his class. Even the guild leader of The Underground Cradle sent down a notice at one point that no one was to attack him or take on jobs that dealt with him. This was because his gown guild members were losing their items due to Vance easily killing ten of the members at the same time.
The group searched the whole area at the peak of the cliff until finally: "Found it!" Sally yelled out as she held a coin in her hand. Vance walked over and looked at it, and smiled. "Good job!"
Because of Miri's knack for getting lost in three steps, she was chained to Alice since Alice would not be on the front line. By chained, it meant they were literally chained together. ALice had a custom chain made to put around Miri so she would not get lost.
"Alright! One down and many more to go. But before we leave this area and make our way to the next area, remember this, if your life is on the line, run away. Do not put yourself in danger. We need to be very wary of other players, but if we can, we will strike first. Kill without hesitation. Use your potions without hesitation as well. If you see your health drop past 25%, use a potion. We have enough to go around." Vance did not want anyone to get seriously hurt. While he had sold quite a few potions, he still had a lot on hand. Both mana and health potions. So they would not need to worry about long battles if it came down to it. n-/OVelB1n
"Luckily, we should have the level advantage, right?" Cynthia asked.
"If we are lucky, then yes. But even if there are a few players around our levels, this means nothing when numbers are factors in. a bunch of level tens can gang up on one of us and kill us. Remember this." Vance did not want them to think that levels meant everything. Death was death if your health reached zero. At least, this was what he thought to be the case since he had yet to die and did not wish to test it out.
But who would have thought after saying this and they walked down the rocky slope, a certain Eternal Virgin would pop out of nowhere and yell out: "Haha! I finally found you, my wonderful.... Big titties!"
Eternal Virgin's eyes went wide as he stared at the three girls with large busts. He really wanted these girls on his team more and more. But when his eyes landed on Vance, looking at his red eyes and perfectly handsome face, and wanted to scream. "Tch! A playboy and a half. How much did he offer for you girls to be with him for this event? I will pay more."
"Huh?" Alice's face turned ugly as she stepped forward and pointed her finger at the young man. "You think we are some kind of prostitutes!? Vance is our husband! And you! Fireball!"
"Hey, wait! Why are you suddenly...!?" Eternal Virgin could only jump to the side, falling flat on his face as the fireball flew by the spot he was once in. He looked up at Alice and yelled out: "Why did you suddenly attack!? What do you mean, husband!?"
"Just as she said: we are Vance's wives, not girls who sold themselves to him. Have a pleasant journey!" Cynthia's sword was raised up and stabbed down. It pierced right into Eternal Virgin's head, causing a critical hit that emptied his hp bar in an instant.
"As I was saying, be ready to kill at any moment." Vance chuckled. His wives took care of that guy before he could even act. He saw how Alice made a gesture with her hand that was almost unnoticeable. And as soon as she did, the others all began to move. Alice used her fireball as a distraction to allow the others to get into formation. Cynthia was the closest, so she was able to sneak up to his side before he even noticed it and finish him off.
It seemed their training together had really bore fruit. Their teamwork was flawless. It made him feel unnecessary.
