Next morning, Wan Er Design, I continued to work.
Actually, I wasn’t in the mood to do anything so I handed the rest of my work to my colleagues. Luckily the others knew who I was and knew that I was here just because I was bored. Moreover, I didn’t get any salary so I was just a volunteer here.
On the forums, simple introductions to the various bosses had appeared. The 2nd boss God Killing Zither Qin Ge was a celestial that was good at music and after falling became a strong undead spirit. Azure took her divinity and shaped it into a demonic type divinity which made her his helper.
Greed Yin Huo was also a super strong Boss, the end user of the flames.
The Judge was an ancient order protector.
The Devourer was a prehistoric beast and naturally what it liked to do was to devour things.
Apocalypse Storm Leila was a boss that transcended time that came from another plane. She was good at magnetic attacks and from the introduction, she seemed like a female warrior.
Out of the 11 bosses, only Pearl’s introduction was lacking, there was not a single page.
I sat in front of the computer and found it hard to calm myself down. More and more signs showed that this Boss was Pearl. But after getting her mind corrupted, could Pearl still return to Tian Ling City?
Even if Pearl could, would the ruler of Tian Ling City be her or Lochlan?
Thinking about that, my head started to hurt. If Pearl returned to fight with Lochlan for the throne, who should I help?
…
I looked at the forums and realised that many Chinese players had started to gather in Dragon City and Sea of No Return. The goal was that many of them wanted to get the Epic Grade weapons from these new lords. Apocalypse Storm Leila guarded the Death Plains, Greed Yin Huo guarded the Shura World. These two bosses were the ones that players targetted. Moreover, many players from Iron Skull City, Swirling Abyss City and Nine Heavens City were also tempted by the new bosses.
Among them, those Western Alliance members at Iron Skull City were passionate. They gathered millions of players to kill the boss by outnumbering it…
The most peaceful one was the Indians. Seven Shine City was under the Hybrid Demon Territory so they couldn’t kill the Hybrid Demon Lords. Clear Black Eyes could consider killing Lochlan, Lin Qiong, Zhu Hai etc, maybe she could get some god weapons. But as for Epic Grade ones that wouldn’t be possible. I don’t think anyone in Tian Ling City had any.
…
“Di!”
A forum message came from Yan Zhao Warrior, “Xiao Yao, you are on the forums too?”
“En, I am just scrolling at work!”
“You are working?”
“Right, I am a hardworking and diligent working class member.”
“Tsk.” Yan Zhao Warrior sent a mocking emoji, “Fang Ge Que, Q-Sword, Jian Feng Han have decided to send troops the moment Hybrid Demon Territory refreshes. The players want to attack this time and conquer the maps where the Hybrid Demon Lords are at. What do you think?”
I thought about it and replied, “Zhan Long shall wait and see. I don’t think it is too optimistic, Azure won’t get killed so easily,
after the maintenance, the Hybrid Demon Lords should get much stronger. It wouldn’t be so easy.”
“En, I think so too. Let’s wait and see together.”
“Okay…”
…
Before I knew anything about the opponent, it was better that I didn’t challenge them, but… Maybe Fang Ge Que and Q-Sword had their own thoughts. They wanted to rely on the loss of player levels to win the lord and get an Epic weapon. After all, Epic Grade weapons were limited and levels could be earned.
Now, the main players were above level 190, there were many 200+ players too. Destiny was at its mid to late game and this was the best chance for guilds to break away. If they went all out now maybe they could increase their guild’s influence and rankings. As long as the guilds got more famous, be it in Destiny or the next game, it would be beneficial.
Zhan Long’s Xue Rou, Li Mu, Wang Jian, Old K etc wanted to invade Hybrid Demon Territory. Everyone felt pumped up but I felt that since Azure promoted seven others, things weren’t so easy. The new lords would be a problem.
So I sent Mocha and Li Mu a message for them to lead Zhan Long players to kill the monsters outside the core area. I told them not to attack the Boss.
…
Until 11:30 did the two girls get off work. The three of us ate something at the fast food restaurant before heading back. The afternoon was spent in the game. Dong Cheng Yue and Lin Wan Er wanted to get strong too so who would be willing to see their level and equipment fall behind.
“Shua!”
I went online, Tian Ling City.
I repaired my equipment and prepared items before summoning Mei’er to head out.
Most Zhan Long players were in Dragon City. Today was a good day for players to fight back. Dragon City was filled, there were many from Zhan Long and many others from other guilds. Players flooded the area from the north to the south wall and many players headed toward the north.
Snow fell from the sky but that couldn’t affect the mood of the players. I could see small amounts of NPC troops headed forwards with players. No choice, my The Executor interface could only take a look at army movement. If players like Lieutenants and Captains wanted to move troops to level, there was nothing I could do.
“Hua hua…”
The sound of wings flapping spread from the sides and it was Lin Wan Er riding Little White.
Further away, Li Mu was riding the red dragon in the snow. He swiped off the snow on his shoulders and said, “Xiao Yao, Rou Rou and I discussed for Zhan Long to send 30 thousand people. We will level around the Shura World and look at the Boss’s stats first. What do you think?”
“En, do that.”
I guided Mei’er towards the north. I looked down and could see the red patch of Furnace God Cavalry. I could see Xue Rou and Old K. I smiled, “Ah Mu, when did you get so close to Mocha, you are even calling her Rou Rou, haha…”
Li Mu’s face turned green, “Softer, Wang Jian and our group call her that privately. If she hears it she will definitely beat me up, you know…”
He lowered his voice and got close, “Xue Rou is so prideful, how many guys would she be interested in? Scoff you are probably the only one. You are so blessed but you don’t know it!”
I placed Butterfly on the dragon’s back and said, “I don’t know what you are saying.”
Li Mu looked at Lin Wan Er and smiled, “Actually I don’t know what I am saying either!”
…
We caught up to the main force and further ahead was the Ghostly Rope Bridge. Ghostly Rope Bridge was just a few iron chains hanging in the clouds and it was really dangerous. There were also things hunting us in the sky. When I came here previously I was nearly killed. However, things were much safer now. Players used ropes to turn this bridge into a secure one. Horses could speed through and nothing would happen to them.
Hero Mound’s Hundred Abyss Cavalry crossed along with Zhan Long’s Furnace God Cavalry as well as a bunch of Mages and Archers.
I frowned, this was Hybrid Demon Territory and players were treating this as a joke?
“Be careful!” I looked at the clouds and couldn’t help but say.
On the bridge, an elder of the first division, level 212 Berserker looked at me and smiled, “Guild Leader, there shouldn’t be a problem right? Logically speaking at least a few hundred thousand are in front and they are fine. It can’t be that something happens to Zhan Long right?”
I nodded, “Just be careful.”
“En!”
…
The moment we finished, screams could be heard from the mist. It was also very familiar, was it the scavengers?
No, it was the level 8 Hybrid Demons Two-winged Demons!
In the mist, many black shadows charged over. Their claws pierced through the bodies of the players crossing. These Two-winged Demons had high AI and didn’t try to kill the players, they just dragged them off into the abyss. In a blink of an eye, the sky was covered with Two-winged Demons. Zhan Long and Hero Mound tried to fight back but many were killed. Most of them were tossed into the abyss and were probably dead. Not everyone could have a lucky encounter after falling into the abyss, most of them just fell and died on the stone.
“Hold on!”
I shouted and guided Mei’er over. I also said loudly, “Mei’er spit flames and kill these Two-winged Demons! Form a shield and protect yourself!”
Mei’er screamed and charged into the crowd. At the same time, she used Dragon God Shield and Dragon Energy Whirlwind so that the Two-winged Demons couldn’t get close. I slashed the monsters and used Wind Carrying Slash+Thundering Heavens. Not far away, Lin Wan Er, Li Mu and Wang Jian also attracted the monster’s attention to help us buy some time.
On the bridge, Q-Sword was among them and he charged forwards while using his skills. However, he was still unable to turn back the situation. He looked towards me and said loudly, “Xiao Yao, cover for half a minute, I will bring them over. Tell the people behind not to cross, the Hybrid Demons want to destroy the bridge!”
I nodded, “Go!”
…
The moment I finished, a shocking dragon roar spread from the mist. A grey bone dragon charged out and this was a quasi Boss grade Hybrid Demon. Damn, as I expected, Azure was ambushing Zhan Long and Hero Mound on purpose!
