213 Chapter 213 - Charge! (1/2)
The six men of Young Master's Elite received quite the scare upon seeing the mess that High Cloud was.
It was not possible for all seven hundred fifty members of a level 5 guild like Traversing Four Seas to know each other, but since there was an item like an emblem that could not be faked to prove a member's belongingness into a guild, whenever there was a group PvP, no one would mistakenly kill or be killed as long as he or she was wearing the said item.
Mercenary groups, for their part, did not have emblems to prove the identity of their members. Perhaps, this was because the current size of mercenary groups had yet to reach the level in which the members would have to prove their identities. The highest level mercenary group right now was at level 5 with just one hundred members, after all. While recognizing all seven hundred fifty players of a guild was impossible, familiarizing with the faces of one hundred individuals was not. This was why there had never been cases in the mercenary PvP tournament where players would mistake their comrades for the enemies and vice versa… until now, that was.
It was a wonder how High Cloud mercenary group had managed make it into the Final 16 with some of its members not being able to differentiate between their fellow mercenaries and enemies. But while the enemies mistook the members of Young Master's Elite for their comrades, the six men did not mistake the enemies for what they were. It must have been a surprise for these people for Royal God Call to wave at them friendlily. And yet, Royal God Call's wave was not really done to act friendly with the enemies but was due to him feeling excited at having the chance to test out his newly bought equipment on them. Who knew that the enemies would actually be driven off by his greeting?
All six were at a loss for words. Royal God Call was the first to recover himself. Revealing a vicious expression on his face, he hurriedly rectified his mistake by sending off an arrow to one of the men walking away.
Royal God Call's bow was called Sniper's Scream, yet the arrow he had fired off from it did not produce a loud whistling sound and instead produced a crisp shrill sound as it sailed through the air.
Swoosh!
”AH!” The arrow made its target gasp for his final breath, which eventually turned into a scream that filled the air.
The screaming person disappeared into a stream of white light. Royal God Call was elated, as he had never experienced insta-killing a player of the same level before. While he could insta-kill any player at level 30 or lower, such a feat was just like how the common saying on the internet put it: ”Insta-killing a noob is never amazing. It's only amazing when one can insta-kill a player of the same level.” The self-proclaimed top-expert Royal God Call had been after this achievement, but his equipment had unfortunately not been up to par. Thanks to his newly bought equipment, he could finally experience this kind of exhilaration once more.
Having accomplished the feat, Royal God Call grabbed Gu Fei, ”Enhanced Snipe! Snipe is enhanced!” Among them, only Gu Fei had tasted the joy of insta-killing a player of the same level, which was something Royal God Call had been envious of for the longest time.
”What are you on about?! Get outta the way!” Gu Fei shoved Royal God Call to the side as he picked up his sword to attack.
”No, don't! Leave them to your bros!” War Without Wounds hurriedly shouted, fearing that Gu Fei would cast a spell that would kill off all their enemies.
”You don't understand anything about me!” Gu Fei said to War Without Wounds in frustration before rushing down the hill.
Sword Demon did not let himself to be outdone by Gu Fei. Pulling out his dagger, he then activated Fleetfoot and chased after Gu Fei.
”Oh, f*ck! Wait for me, you two!” War Without Wounds was in tears as he charged after the two down the hill.
”Blessings! Don't you guys want my blessings?!” Brother Assist quickly waved his staff about, yet he only managed to grant Blessing of Strength on War Without Wounds.
”Go ahead and run along. I won't heal you guys if you leave my range!” Young Master Han said indifferently. He then decisively sat on the ground and took out another bottle of liquor.
Young Master's Elite also strongly lacked unity at this moment, but this was only because these experts did not need to team up just to dispose of four enemies.
Gu Fei sprinted down the hill first, yet Sword Demon swiftly caught up to him, seemingly even able to accelerate past him now. This gave Gu Fei quite the scare. Having allocated all his points into Agility and having afforded of the additional movement speed trait of Windchaser's Boots, the Mage Gu Fei had always bested the Thief Sword Demon in terms of speed. Before, Sword Demon could only match Gu Fei's speed by activating Fleetfoot. Right now, however, he appeared to be even slightly faster than Gu Fei and seemed to be capable of leaving the latter in the dust.
”Did you change your footwear?” Gu Fei asked.
Sword Demon smiled, ”Windchaser's Boots.”
”Oh! You got a pair, too!”
Sword Demon nodded his head.
”Was it tough? You should have told me; I would have lent you my Windchaser's Emblem!” Gu Fei said.
