204 Chapter 204 - A Lingering Spiri (1/2)

What was called the sound of silence? Right now, that was what one could hear inside Ray's Bar. It was so quiet that anyone would hear it if a pin dropped.

...Everyone was in awe at the way Gu Fei finished off Silver Moon just now.

Twin Incineration was a spell that Mages seldom used, so most Mages had low proficiency in it. Therefore, they considered Twin Incineration as the least lethal of all the spells in their arsenal. The other job classes knew of this as well. And yet, Gu Fei had just defeated a Knight with what everyone judged as the weakest mage spell.

To be able to finish off a Knight by just casting Twin Incineration twice… This was by no means a small feat, and everyone began to think of how fearsome Gu Fei's Spell Damage was. Ironically, nobody realized that Silver Moon had high resistance against magic, and that Gu Fei could actually insta-kill any regular players by just casting his spell once. A 'Twin Incineration' spell that Gu Fei incorporated into his swordplay moves was very different from a 'Twin Incineration' spell that was cast by regular Mages, after all.

Compare to his use of Blink, these knowledgeable leaders viewed his use of Twin Incineration as more noteworthy. People merely chalked it up to a person luckily obtaining a skill scroll if anyone happened to posses Blink right now, and although getting a hold of Blink was not easy at this point of the game, Blink's lack of any offensive properties made people undervalue it.

Gu Fei's connection with Brother Assist and company, his real purpose for coming in the bar, and his disruption of the 'meet and greet' event… None of these mattered anymore, and at this moment, the leaders, especially those who had not managed to speak with Drifting, only wanted get close to Gu Fei to try recruiting him over, so they began gravitating toward him.

Although Drifting was renowned, none of them knew of just how powerful he was. Small and medium guilds and mercenaries would not even dream of having someone like him as a member, and only large guilds and mercenaries would think of inviting him just to have his name be associated with their organizations. Moreover, there was even a possibility of such players to turn into a 'leader' from being a 'subordinate'. As such, these leaders were keener on acquiring and nurturing a rising star like Gu Fei.

As they were thinking of this, Gu Fei who no longer had any business in Ray's Bar sprinted out of it.

”Hey, bro, wait up!” Many of them tried to chase after him, as they judged that they had a higher chance of recruiting the nameless expert than the famous individual Drifting. As for the others, they got torn between getting to know Drifting and chasing after Gu Fei for quite a while before finally resolving to pursue Gu Fei. Eventually, they all returned to the establishment in disappointment.

”Just who exactly is that guy?” everyone began to wonder.

”He is so fast. He must have added a lot of points to Agility,” someone said.

”I tried to appraise his gear before, yet I failed to get a read of his robe and sword.”

”His sword and robe must be top grade, and they are probably the source of his high Spell Damage,” a leader accurately deduced.

”Wait a minute. With such a high Spell Damage, how come the damage of his Blazing Tree of a Thousand Inferno is so low?” someone posed this question.

In the blink of an eye, only a minority of the leaders in Ray's Bar continued to converse with Drifting and a majority of them heatedly discussed the enigma that that was Gu Fei. Young Master Han used this moment to send Brother Assist a private message, ”Let's leave now!”

Brother Assist wholeheartedly agreed to this. War Without Wounds, who had been standing by the entrance, easily slipped away from the bar. As for Royal God Call, he was also able to leave the place unrestricted as no one was keeping tab on him, and he even managed to spit twice in Drifting's general direction without anybody noticing it. But when it was Young Master Han and Brother Assist's turn to leave, many leaders immediately took note of it.

”You two, don't leave just yet!” someone shouted and everyone turned to look at the two.

Young Master Han smiled, ”Our business here is done. Everyone, please have a nice chat with Mister Drifting!”

”Wait!” Several leaders jumped out and blocked the two's way out.

”We still want you two to tell us more about the Mage just then!”

”We don't know that guy,” Young Master Han maintained.
