Chapter 361 No Matter the Cost
After winning that victory, I got 8 points of charm stats. Compared to the last MVP reward, [Camouflage], this guild prestige battle’s reward was obviously inferior. But it wasn’t too bad. At least the 8 charm points were enough to learn two SSS rank skill books.
……
The field was buzzing with excitement. [Zhan Long]’s members had all raised their weapons and killed their opponents within 20 minutes. Nothing like this had ever happened before in all 12 of the previous guild prestige battles in the three main cities and it was not because [Mass Burial] was too weak, but because [Zhan Long] was too strong. This even happened without Yue Qing Qian and the others. Otherwise, with the [Grip of the Firefox] and its fiery blasts, [Mass Burial] would have lost even faster!
“Shua!”
We were teleported out of the battlefield. Li Mu stood beside the city walls and guffawed, “Man, I thought there would be a great war. Who knew it would only take 20 minutes to finish off [Mass Burial]. Such a waste of excitement!”
Wang Jian laughed as he left the main guild to rejoin [Zhan Long: First Division] as the Guild Master, “It can’t be helped. Our individual strengths are too strong and we have good teamwork. It’s only normal for [Mass Burial] to lose. Look over there, the remains of [Mass Burial] are over there”
Everyone looked towards a corner of the square. Not Ordinary, Youyi, and other former members of [Mass Burial] all stood there, uniform in one aspect: all of them had lost the [Mass Burial] badge and had become solo players.
“Keng……”
Not Ordinary dejectedly stood there as his battle axe fell on the bricks of the city walls. His eyes swept over [Zhan Long]’s members, helplessly furious. He coldly muttered,”[Zhan Long]…… just you wait. I will definitely make you take the consequences!
Beside him, Youyi softly reminded him, “Boss, let’s join our guild’s division first!”
“Okay”
A few minutes later, a [Thousand Burial] badge appeared on Not Ordinary’s shoulder. And soon he became the Guild Master. This was his escape plan as he was able to possess another guild once [Mass Burial] was gone. However, based on what I knew, [Mass Burial] originally had only 400+ main forces. Not Ordinary was unwilling to recruit new members, which was probably because he wanted to maintain the strength of the artificials. Now, it would be different. If [Thousand Burial] still did not recruit new members, it would still be suppressed by [Zhan Long]. There was no use in relying on allies either. Wang Ze Cheng’s attitude was very clear: At any critical moment, he would choose to protect [Hero’s Mound] over [Hero’s Mound: First Division].
……
“Hehe……” Li Mu looked into the distance and smiled, “Boss, should we continue to slaughter [Thousand Burial] till they couldn’t even take a step out of the city?”
I shook my head, “No need. We’ve already achieved our primary goals. Let’s give up butchering [Thousand Burial] for now and talk about it after we see how they develop after a while. I still need to continue to observe them. Thank you everyone for your hard work! Go do what you need to do. Be it training or questing!”
“Roger that!”
I checked the time and realized that Misty Cloud had been working on the SSS rank quest for 14 hours. There was still no way of knowing their progress as they were in the quest map and couldn’t be contacted by the outside world. However, Yue Qing Qian, Matcha, and the other sisters’ names were still bright on my friend list, so there shouldn’t have been any problems. The quest was still going on. Plus, if the quest was completed, the system would definitely notify everyone as it was a SSS rank main story quest. No need to be nervous. Just wait patiently.
In the afternoon, I continued guarding a perilous map on the northern border of Ba Huang City. It wasn’t too far from Green Qilin Valley, but the monsters were all above level 75, something I could train off of. Simultaneously, I continued using the dual sword style to kill the monsters in the desolated map, trying to understand the ways of attacking with Flying Swordplay one bit at a time. Even though I didn’t receive any hints from the game, I had a feeling that, with time, I would be able to grasp its ways. I could tell from that warm feeling that always lingered in my wrist after I used the Flying Swordplay, a feeling I had in real life when I practiced it as well.
……
Finally at 11 o’clock at night, a bell resounded in the sky above the all of the main cities. Misty Cloud’s quest was complete——
“Ding!”
System Notification: Each player, please pay attention. The team led by player “Misty Cloud” has completed the SSS rank main story quest [On the Way]. All players who have participated in the quest will receive Level+1, Charm+10, Gold Coins+7000 and their reputation in the main city increase. Also, the leader of this quest, Player “Misty Cloud” received the final reward——[Four Divine Symbol Guardian Class Certificate]!
