Chapter 687 Path 3

"Masta! Masta!"

Kyuuuu

A small, adorable fox wagged her three fluffy tails as she licked the sullen cheeks of a dead-looking person lying on the ground breathlessly.

Liam winced as every inch of his body was aching. Right from the depths of his core to his limbs, bones, and muscles, everything was aching.

Parts of his body were black and blue, with several cuts and bruises littered everywhere.

And naturally, the person who was responsible for all of this was standing right next to him, harrumphing loudly. "How long are you planning on staying down? Get up. Move your ass."

Liam smiled bitterly as he took another deep breath and slowly stood up. How many hours, or rather days, have passed now? He had no idea.

Inside this space, time had lost all meaning for him. There was only training, more training, and brutal endless training.

For all the days he had yearned for someone to teach him something, he was now fully satisfied and then some. This elf from hell was taking care of him very well.

Meanwhile…

Unlike him, every other player in the 'Evolution Online' game was focused on something else, the first guild war, the battle between the two S-Rank guilds. However, there was no longer any mockery or even excitement on their faces, there was only pure terror.

In the huge display square up in the sky, the face of a little girl flashed as she hummed a little tune and skipped her way over the many corpses on the road. In front of her was the man, whose body and sword were both dripping with blood.

While the man hunted, the little girl casually healed him. Some players tried to bypass the monster and target the little girl, but this was easier said than done. In essence, path number 5 was a complete goner.

Seeing just two players on the defense side, everyone had expected a sure shot win, but now the tables had completely turned. Moreover, the worst part of this whole affair was that no one recognized these two players.

Where the hell did these monsters even come from and why did they have to join Crimson Abyss of all the guilds!

While the massacre on route 5 was still ongoing, the display shifted to show the next path, path no.3, where the two sides finally caught up and were now standing face to face against each other.

That's right! What if one path was a dead end, there were still four other paths left! Many players sighed in relief.

Similarly, inside the battleground as well, everyone was once again starting to become hopeful. Earlier, the guild battle chat was in a complete uproar after hearing about the one-sided massacre, but now they were eager for the second path.

Also, two of the guild elders rightfully pointed out that there was something good in this situation too. As soon as the massacre started, it became clear that they couldn't do anything about it.

So Mustafa and Lorenzo both told the division right away to slowly lure these two players away from their base. Since this path was lost, they simply did not want these two talented players to interfere when they took down another path and captured the flag.

The end goal here was to still capture the flag, so this should be their main target. Because of this, they decided to sacrifice the whole division. Without Liam and Mia and now without these two mysterious experts, the rest of the war had to be a cakewalk.

The bigwigs of the guild immediately started paying attention to path number 3. The morale of their group was at an all-time low, so they had to take this path and secure their victory. There was simply no other option.

However, all such hopes were instantly crushed as a message popped into the guild chat. One of the players had already spotted a familiar face, one of the famous personalities of Crimson Abyss, the little girl with the Emerald Crown.

All the players by now knew about the three legendary items in circulation inside the game. One of these three overpowered items was in the Gresh Kingdom and in the possession of none other than the Crimson Abyss guild.

Even if the Dragons of Justice did not hold that much respect for the Crimson Abyss without Liam or Mia, they still did not dare underestimate the legendary item. The power of a legendary item was on a whole other level.

That too, everyone knew about the power of the Emerald Crown all too well. Anya, the previous owner of the said weapon, was happy to sell everyone information regarding this.

It was clear to her that she was not going to get back her crown any time soon, so she didn't pull any pouches, selling the specs of the Emerald Crown down to the last detail.

And this was also why everyone was wary of this single item on the single player.

Among the three known legendary items, the Emerald Crown was the best when it came to group buffs. It was indispensable when running dungeons and raids, not to mention in a huge, large-scale event like this battle.

As soon as the guild higher-ups looked at the message, they immediately began to sweat. They already knew that path number 3 was not going to be an easy win.

However, they were also not ready to give up. From what they could see, only this one notable person was there in the entire group. There wasn't any sign of any other strong players. So this path could still be theirs.

And just for situations like this, Mustafa had prepared something else, a surprise.

"Tell them to send the backup team A to path 3."

Immediately, the battle started raging as the various players on path 3 clashed against each other. This time, there were several players on both sides and no tricks as far as they could see like the monster in the previous path.

The only drawback was that the advantage in numbers that the Dragons had did not seem to matter much here. Even without any trees falling on either side of the road, the path itself was quite narrow.

There were only so many players who could occupy the front lines at any given time. Both sides seemed to be equally matched in their healing game and long-range attackers.

So, for the first minute, everything seemed to be at a standstill.

Seeing this, Rowan grinned. "Mustafa, you made the right decision with the backup. If the battle continues like this, then we can take down this path when the backup arrives."

He barely typed this in the guild chat when suddenly small changes started happening on the path 3 front lines. The tanks who were holding up the front lines in the path faltered a little.
