The patrol team marched on the main road bordering forests on both sides. Alongside William, the entire team traveled on foot so their speed was not very fast.
Forever Alone followed beside William as he was William’s personal guard. He silently started video recording. As he was going to be the bait, he would be in danger at any time. Hence, he had chosen to record, so that he would know of how he died. Then he could review the video many times so that he could improve himself.
Yes, he knew very well that he was going to be a sacrifice. He did not expect to achieve anything, but he wanted his death to be worthwhile…
Even if he could not improve, even after reviewing the video, it was also worthwhile to appreciate the team leader William’s actual combat power.
Then, he could see the huge difference in their combat power. Perhaps, he would have a chance in the future to attain the same level as William…
All the players present greatly anticipated the ensuing battle.
The players of the City of Dawn were discovering a lot of hidden information. It made many players curious about the actual power of the Half-Elf William.
Blackleaf Elfin royal clan?
Had William been exiled, or was he supported by the Elfin royal clan?
William was the greatest beneficiary of the Dragon slaying battle. He was a true Dragon Slayer.
He was also a city that had five legions at his disposal.
He even led a huge mercenary team with high mobility. Furthermore, rumors had it that under him, there were 300 Dragon’s blood warriors that no one had seen before…
“It’s too mysterious. As Lord William did not have robust support, he was unable to invade the Human nations. Otherwise, the balance of power in this war would have tilted in his favor. Even though the City of Dawn is small, there are simply too many BOSSES.” Forever Alone silently sighed.
Since the players of Black Lava Nation had been ignored by the Black Lava Nation administration, they didn’t see any point in staying. Within a short time, 10,000 players defected to Iron Nation.
The mass departure brought down the number of players in the Black Lava Nation to just 40,000.
Even though new players regularly appeared, the notion of freedom on the forum incited them to spawn in the beginner’s village of Iron Nation.
“Who says that the faction with the largest number will be the final victor? This is a system in which powerful magical characters are being favored. It’s good to propagate the notion of freedom in a small nation, but it’s too much to use it as a reason to start a war.” Forever Alone squinted his eyes. He wanted to try his luck. Even if he lost, it was not a big deal to lag behind in this game version.
He looked up to the Glory team leader Chu Liuqiu. His opponent was very astute, as he could always choose a good faction and expand his power.
Since Chu Liuqiu had chosen the City of Dawn, William must have other good stuff hidden up his sleeves besides the great benefits of the mercenary team!
“It’s important to follow the trend.” Forever Alone understood that the Dawn Mercenary Team was the best, but the main plot mission was also important. As long as he made the right choice, he could obtain great faction affinity and receive generous rewards.
William closed his eyes to rest.
In the next second.
He stepped on the stirrup and leaped into the air.
Meanwhile,
A ray of blue light flashed across the sky. The warhorse underneath William had been seriously injured by a powerful blow which blew him half a meter away. Its stomach had a huge bleeding hole, and its intestines were scattered in the air.
A few unfortunate players had also been killed by a few arrows…
The battle had started.
There was no time for nonsense.
20 members of the execution team rushed out of the forests on both sides, and went all out, executing their powerful moves.
Before the next round of battle.
Half of the NPCs of the patrol team perished without even being given any chance of retaliation. The casualties also included some players that could not figure out the situation.
When Augustine saw William leaping up, he had an idea. He glanced at the other inferior soldiers before charging forward.
The slash of a Dragon-slayer blade.
A narrow and long sword energy, ten meters long, exploded.
William dodged in mid-air. The fire sword energy scraped past his body, and the scalding effect was immense. His hair was almost burnt.
Crash.
The warhorse was cut into a thousand pieces, and a long and deep ravine appeared in the ground.
William released an arrow in the sky. A Saint Spirit shot out from William’s body, and appeared before a master-level opponent who was being shot.
With a slash from its sword, the Saint Spirit broke through the battle energy shield of the master-level opponent who backed up three to five meters. His armor was split open and fresh blood gushed out.
William did not hide his identity and tore a magic scroll.
His battle energy surged and he moved like lightning. William appeared before the master-level opponent in a flash. The opponent stabbed William’s chest, but at the same time, William also pierced his temple with a short sword.
Brain juices splattered, and the opponent fell to the ground, devoid of life.
Critical attack.
It was a fatal blow.
9,445 points of damage!
At this moment.
When Augustine was close on William’s heels,
Forever Alone who had been revived three times pounced forward and grabbed Augustine’s thighs tightly.
“Get lost.” Augustine detested these chosen ones who could revive. He kicked this one’s head away like it was a soccer ball.
William pulled out the longsword from his chest while he attacked an epic-level assassin who had been killing the players.
Swish.
The assassin moved very fast and transformed into a series of afterimages as he hid in the forest. There was no way to locate the assassin.
William narrowed his eyes while he released a Ghost Arrow that penetrated space and the tree branches…
There was a crisp sound.
Pom.
The assassin was in a daze as he felt something at the back of his head.
“Such a big hole…”
Then he fell forward while the light in his eyes extinguished.
Till his death, he could not understand how William knew he was hiding behind that tree and how such an arrow could explode in his head.
“Kill him.” Augustine looked at those losers in the execution team. He almost wanted to torture them to death.
But the members of the execution team wanted to say that it was a breeze killing the chosen ones, even though the chosen ones continuously revived…
“They’ve learned to deal with the players’ revivals? It’s a huge progress.” William frowned. It was a pity that he had no chance to have a duel.
Three level 50 epic level opponents blocked him. Releasing their battle energy skills, they went all out at William
Thunder Slash.
William’s battle energy surged within his body as he made a slash with thunder battle energy. Nine rays of slim sword energy tore through the air.
Pom, pom, pom!
Battle energy collided, and waves after waves of energy emanated out. The intense pressure made the ground sink in. Various colored battle energy swirled continuously in the sky for a long time.
William was not pushed back by the collision but the three opponents were reeling back by seven to eight meters. They were filled with shock.
Level 60!
That was right.
William had used the Instance Dungeon crystal of the Misty Valley. He had reached level 60.
He was no longer the low-level BOSS in version 1.0. He was the legendary BOSS who was almost attaining the high level.
The reviving players were starting to despair. Due to dying so many times, some players’ levels had downgraded, and they had almost lost all their equipment.
When they saw William’s power, they had an incredulous feeling.
Within a short period of time, they witnessed the battle of one legendary, seven epic and many master-level NPCs…
“Our team leader had killed an epic and master level opponent within a short period of time. How powerful is that?” Forever Alone clenched his fists. He made his decision. If William did not die, he would definitely fawn on the Lord!
