‘We’re managing well.’
Terose was showed a fully satisfied smile.
In fact, they had already started exploring the ruins some time ago. On their first attempt they had lost some men, but together with their losses they had found out the way to the door leading to the stone chamber. However, due to not having the necessary sacrifice for the altar, they had to return.
‘It’s time to complete this quest.’
Terose pretended to survey the ruins along with this guild members. The thieves and assassins opened up the path, while warriors and paladins prepared for danger with shields raised.
“Kuaak!”
“Watch out. It’s a trap!”
The guild fought dangerous monsters and destroyed deadly traps. Sometimes they had to face large monsters, which resulted in a few deaths.
“Don’t give up. The real danger isn’t even here yet”
“Keep going. Something of this degree cannot stop us, the Crimson Wings.”
“The blood we’ve spilled will help us reach our goal”
“Don’t let your comrades die in vain. Don’t give up here!”
All around, high level users exclaimed frivolously.
Terose had mobilized over a thousand high-level users of the Crimson Wing Guild, four times the number of people in the last expedition. Therefore the average level was lower than usual. Still, they mobilized as much users with a level of over 310 as possible.
‘We can’t afford to miss this opportunity.’
Terose took full advantage of the quest to promote his guild.
Broadcasting a difficult expedition 24/7 would greatly increase the guild’s fame. Additionally, by completing an A-class quest, they would be able to establish themselves as a strong guild to spectators.
‘If this quest turns out well, the guild would be able to spread their influence on a larger scale. First, raise funds to increase our size. If the newcomers level up high enough, the title as the strongest guild can be seized from the Hermes. We, the Crimson Wing, will dominate the continent.’
Terose puffed up his chest.
His ambition knew no bounds.
"Aaaaah!"
“Put more strength into it! Priests, heal our injured colleagues!”
The Crimson Wing Guild pierced through the hard way.
In reality, they had already advanced a great deal during the last expedition, but they acted as if they knew nothing of the dungeon, and faked their hardships in order to gain more viewership.
The guild members worked hard on their act. They had died knowing that it was coming. They had deliberately placed less men than needed to clear the paths; of course, they had already promised a substantial compensation to those that died.
“Even if I die, the expedition must continue.”
“Yeah, trust us”
Terose purposely took his guild members deeper into the dungeon while the Dark Gamers, positioned at the rear of the expedition, could do nothing but smile cynically.
“They’re doing such useless stuff”
“Just increasing the number of people will only increase the losses.”
“That’s all just wisdom of life. You can’t do such a thing with being just a little crafty.”
“It doesn’t concern us since we just have to receive what we worked for. But the fact that we can’t fight is a bit unsatisfying.”
The Dark Gamers followed while complaining.
