Chapter 32: Super Army gather
Attack!
I did not think much at all. The moment they stepped into my territory, I struck. My twin swords sliced and I used a basic attack plus Backstab onto one of the Warriors.
1782!
2671!
He was instantly killed!
"Ah, what is going on?"
From behind, before the Fighter and Enchanter could react, I dashed at them and usedHunter's Edge. Instantly, there was a loud Mother Hunter's Edge voice and three lights blinked, piercing through the two of them. Both were killed instantly, too!
"This is bad!"
The Mage raised his staff and used a Snow Domain skill on me while shouting, "We can't defeat him; little sister, leave!"
However, it was obviously too late. When I raised my hands, a golden light wrapped around my arms and Quickness was activated. It cancelled the speed reduction effect of Ice Domain. I then used Gouge to insta-kill the Mage while chasing the panicking Priest and killing her with two basic attacks.
All of a sudden, the Insect Waking Forest regained its tranquility; a few corpses were lying on the ground and two armor-type equipment had dropped. What a waste. I could not pick it all up; if not, I would have become rich.
"Was I too vicious to kill that girl?"
I looked at the Priest's body and mumbled, but then I touched my nose. "Forget it.Theyre all the same;boys and girls are equal. People who step into my domain are all gonna die..."
I slowly entered Stealth, my blue-colored body disappearing into the forest. The moment I disappeared, footsteps could be heard from the distance. There were more people this time, fifty plus or so, and they were all around level 20 to 24. The bunch of them charged in, with anall-green Paladin in front.
"The battles over?!"
He looked at the five corpses in shock and frowned. "Did players do it or was it a Boss?"
"The Boss!"
A Musician carried a pipa and spoke solemnly. "I added one of them as my friend when I entered Linchen County. He just told me that the Boss actually knows Hunter's Edge!"
"What?!"
The Paladin panicked. "Is it... Is it... the Autumn Moon Village's Mother Hunter's EdgeBoss?"
"Right, that Boss seems to be really intelligent. He changed the voice of Hunter's Edge to Mother Hunter's Edge as if hes mocking players."
"D*mn..."
A few moments later, a game recording was sent to me by Ah Fei. I skulked inthe forest and opened the recording. What I saw was what was occuring in Linchen County.
White walls and black bricks wrapped around the square, and in it were potion shops, blacksmiths, NPCs who gave out quests, et cetera. At the center was a dagger-holding player who wore high-level armor. It was Breaking Dawn Dust, one of the four pillars of his guild. His face was really ugly as he looked at everyone around.
"Its him.Definitely. The Boss that changed the system sound of Hunter's Edge, only that AI Boss can be so annoying!" Breaking Dawn Dust gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. "Hes openly challenging all players from Illusionary Moon. The character must be something created by some sick designer. We failed in Autumn Moon Village, but now that we are in Linchen County, be it resources, level, or skills, everythings a whole new stage. Its time for us to let that AI taste defeat, isnt it?"
"Right!"
Breaking Dawn Fate blinked. "Breaking Dawn is recruiting people and we will set off soon. We hope that other parties can join us. Let's cooperate in chargingat Insect Waking Forest. The rewards from the Boss will be little, but getting revenge will feel great!"
"Right!"
Breaking Dawn Dust said seriously, "Back in Autumn Moon Village, we were only over level 10 and had level 1 skills. Now, its different.We are close to level 25 and are familiar with our skills. I believe many of you now have level-3 skills. Along with higher-quality potions, well definitely slay that Lightning Rider Assassin!"
"Right!"
Breaking Dawn players raised their weapons. "Slaughter that Lightning Rider Assassin, wash away our humiliation!"
Breaking Dawn Fate looked at everyone with her huge eyes. "Listen to me: Breaking Dawn isnt only gathering our players from Autumn Moon Village; members from other beginner villages are heading here as we speak, too. Our guild has close to five-hundred-strong troops.Follow us and let's trample the Insect Waking Forest;do you agree?"
"Since thats the case..." said a middle-aged man from within the crowd, "today, Ill bring my brothers from Hidden Dragon Mountain to follow Breaking Dawn!"
D*mn! Man of Steel?
I nearly laughed. When was the fellow there? I actually did not notice him.
Apart from Man of Steel, many other party leaders stepped out and expressed their willingness to enter Insect Waking Forest to slay the Lightning Rider Assassin.
"This is a little problematic..." I frowned and said.
Ah Fei said, "En, probably at least a thousand will head in. Moreover, theyre really united. What should we do? Can we still do our business? If I kill your Lightning Rider Assassin, Ill be promoted to level 25 and my name may even appear on the Leaderboard of Linchen County."
"Theres no rush, I thought about it and said. "Head close to Insect Waking Forest and level up. Wait for my news, and when the time is right, I will find you."
"Okay, then. Let's just do that. Be careful;don't get killed by people from Breaking Dawn."
"Don't worry; they don't have theability!"
"Hahaha! I think so, too."
I took a deep breath and retreated. I used Stealth to head toward the south. I had to avoid their main force. Although my stats were really high, for an Assassin Boss with lower than 30000 Health to fight a thousand people, I was asking for death. I just had to avoid their main force and grab those who strayed.
