Chapter 540 (2/2)
I asked Gui Guzi: ”You wanna hook up with Moonkiss, Little Gui? I can help you with that…”
Gui Guzi: ”Please don't. Even if I was interested in her, which I'm not, I would never ask for your help in this regard, boss. I've never seen a girl who's immune to your charms, so to ask you to help me is the same as asking you to cuck me…”
”WTF dude, that is no way to speak to your boss…”
He Yi giggled. ”He's right, you don't understand your boss at all, Gui Guzi. Knowing his personality, he wouldn't take Moonkiss, but Moonkiss would totally take him…”
”WTF, you two…”
Beiming Xue joined in. ”Big bro, did you know that Moonkiss actually sent me a message praising your looks and charms the day after we met her? I'm sure she'll join Ancient Sword if you're willing to become her boyfriend…”
Li Chengfeng, High Fighting Spirits, and everyone else immediately cheered. ”Wah, this is practically a confession already! Vice leader, hesitation is unbecoming of a man, not to mention that Moonkiss is a top-tier a.s.sa.s.sin, a CGL ranker, and the second strongest a.s.sa.s.sin in China after Farewell Song! Our guild is lacking a great a.s.sa.s.sin right now, so please sacrifice yourself for the cause…”
I rolled my eyes at all of them. ”Get lost! I would never do something so despicable! Also, you guys are the lackeys, so by right you're the ones who should sacrifice yourselves for the cause!”
The generals clicked their tongues, and the players laughed. The harmonious atmosphere would've been perfect if it wasn't built on the misery of their vice leader. These people lacked conscience, dammit. They didn't respect their vice leader at all...
……
Pop!
I killed a Spitfire Balrog after it was done spitting fire. It dropped a 3-star Outstanding Dark Gold–grade wristguards that made the female mages in my party squeal in pleasant surprise. Moonlight Stone said, ”As expected of Lu Chen, your drop rate is really insane…”
I asked, ”Do you want these wristguards?”
”Nah, I already have Spirit-grade wristguards.”
”Okay!”
I tossed the wristguards into the hands of a male mage. In a month or even half a month's time, all the top experts would be clad in Purple Gold–grade equipment. For now though, it was still the era of Dark Gold–grade equipment, and anything above that, Purple Gold or Spirit–grade was a most pleasant surprise!
The composition of my party was extremely heterogeneous. There were warriors, mages, priests, tamers, bards, and so on. One of the best traits of Martial G.o.d was that it had no cla.s.s restriction. I could create a scientific party with tanks, DPS, priests, bards and so on that was a lot more secure than, say, Gui Guzi's rider party or Beiming Xue's archer party. For example, if their parties were caught in a swarm of mobs, they would have to break through the encirclement with overwhelming firepower or die. The margin of error was much more narrow for them.
The latest news regarding the battle at the so-called Blaze Valley kept appearing in the guild channel. While we were grinding mobs in silence, the other guilds were having the battle of their life—
6:11 pm: Dominating Heaven Blade succ.u.mbed to Candlelight Shadow's Ghost G.o.d Prophecy and died. His equipment was saved by Dominating Knight G.o.d.
6:17 pm: Hegemon Palace's Little Piglet successfully broke through the left side of Candle Dragon's defense and gave Candlelight Shadow's party some trouble.
6:25 pm: Purple Lily joined the fight. Moonkiss a.s.sa.s.sinated two of Candle Dragon's elite warriors and successfully baited two hundred-man parties to chase after her. They were ambushed by Luo River G.o.d of the Capital and routed completely just outside the boss's zone.
6:34 pm: Warsky Alliance launched an all-out a.s.sault. Lin Bing Dou Zhe was unstoppable until he was rewarded with a Ghost G.o.d Prophecy by Candlelight Shadow. Poor fellow.
6:44 pm: Lin Bing Dou Zhe died. Little Piglet also died after he was ambushed by three of Candle Dragon's CGL Hall of Famers, Blue Sky Scar, Tempest Shadow and Transient Smoke and Clouds. Later, G.o.d's Dance swept through Hegemon Palace and killed Pillar of the Nation and Shangguan Wan'er with a thousand-man party. As a result, the remnants of Hegemon Palace were forced to exit the Nine Lost Dragon Domains prematurely. The boss still had 34% HP at this time.
6:57 pm: Warsky Alliance's CGL Hall of Famer, Laughing At The Heavens, was the next person to be marked with Ghost G.o.d Prophecy.
7:11 pm: The boss died, and the Fire Dragon Scale was stolen by a stealthed Farewell Song. Despite being surrounded by Tempest Shadow, Blue Sky Scar and more, Farewell Song successfully broke through the encirclement and escaped.
7:12 pm: Candlelight Shadow spat a mouthful of blood at his monitor, looked up to the sky and screamed on top of his lungs, ”f.u.c.k~ your~ mother~ Farewell~ Song…”
……
Our luck wasn't too good this time. He Yi, Li Chengfeng, Beiming Xue, and Gui Guzi's party all found a teleportation scroll before me. It took us almost half an hour of grinding before we finally got what we needed.
Earth Dragon Domain, here I come!
Swhoos.h.!.+
We appeared at gra.s.sy land. It was a hill region and the habitat of the ancient Earth Dragon.
