Chapter 263: Powerful! The Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior is Powerful! (2/2)

– disposables to develop the Players handpicked by the God of Games himself.

To think so far ahead, he truly was the God of Games!

Naturally, the Players’ battle against the Mountain Tigers had reached a point where no quarter was given. Even so, the Players still occupied the moral high ground because the Mountain Tigers had attacked them first without provocation, and mercy was therefore unnecessary.

Retreating here and allowing the enemy to seize the moment and give chase would cost the Players dearly as well, and they might fare worse than fighting to the end. Moreover, they might hide in some place they couldn’t find so that their tribe had a shot at survival, and come harass them again when they had finished healing.

Even though the Players wouldn’t back down from such minor threat and even consider them EXP delivered to their doorstep, the Long Ears could get caught in the crossfire.

In addition, the Players need a representative in the Western Continent—but Zonyan’s status akin to an exiled prince would never work before he reclaimed his rank as chief of the Grayclaw tribe.

In comparison, the Long Ears were a better fit for the job.

Edward gave a rough explanation of his conclusion, and the Players eventually decided to fight on against the Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior despite their misgivings. After all, their bodies were immortal and the more spineless of Players weren’t here.

The second-rate Players also tried all they could to get rid of the other Tigermen running interference so that they could return to lynching the Boss.

But the might of the Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior was no ditch to be crossed in a single stride. Time passed without the second-rate Players returning to the fray, and everyone’s strategic reviving began to collapse as their MP couldn’t keep up.

In fact, the Players would all be dead if Eleena the Saintess-in-training didn’t tank considerable damage with her sacred barrier.

“Damn it, if we’d only have more people…”

Edward had left the group of Players fighting the Boss and joined a mobile party to help the second-rate Players win quicker.

Nonetheless, he couldn’t help feeling dejected as the situation slowly spiraled out of the Players control, feeling regret for underestimating the event and not mobilizing every other first and second-rate Player.

They actually didn’t even need first-rate Players—with enough second-rate Players or even newbies, they would be able to keep the other Tigermen busy, so that the Players could put in their full power to encircle and take down the Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior.

And they wouldn’t have to suffer so much like they did now!

That was when an arrow suddenly shot past Edward, striking the Tigerman he had been facing.

Doing a double take, he then turned towards the direction where the arrow came from.

A group of figures with long rabbit ears had appeared at some point in time, and were standing by the gates of the stronghold.

“Don’t worry!” Laybit yelled spiritedly at the Players, a small bow in hand. “We’re here to help too!”
