Chapter 310 – Everyone is Coming (1/2)
“Demon Forest?”
Outside the Demon Forest stood a team of roughly one hundred players. Among them, the leader seemed pleasantly surprised by something.
“What luck! I thought we wouldn’t be able to find the Evil God Temple when missing so many pieces of the map, but we actually come across it here,” another player behind the leader said in delight.
“Let’s seize this chance, everyone! We must be the first to occupy the Evil God Temple. You guys must know Azure Dragon City’s Golden Scale Guild and its guild master Golden Scale TheMighty. He only inherited the Misfortune God’s legacy and he’s already so arrogant. The Evil God’s legacy is even more formidable. As long as we get it, we can climb into the top 10 guilds in the entire Imperial Dynasty!”
The leader dropped rousing words of morale before he slapped his mount, taking the lead to charge into the Demon Forest.
“Rogues, go ahead of the team and lead the monsters away. Don’t waste time fighting, we can take care of them when we leave,” ordered the leader as he rode forth.
“Demon Forest? Assemble people with mounts and get to the Demon Forest at the quickest speed possible. Inform the vice master to lead a team to support and bring as many people as he can rally.”
In the Imperial Capital, Fierce Tiger DashingDownhill, the guild master of the number one guild in Azure Dragon City, the Fierce Tiger Gang, closed his communicator with a cold smile. Then, he led his subordinates out of the Imperial Capital, quickly rushing towards the Demon Forest.
At the same time, the Fierce Dragon Gang who were farming in the Cloud Ocean, the Wind God Guild in the White Cloud Ridge, the Myriad Swords in the depths of some vast mountain range… all of the top guilds in the four main cities received the news. They instantly teleported to the Imperial Capital and headed towards the Demon Forest.
“Boss, someone’s hired us to go to the Demon Forest outside the Imperial Capital and take care of some people.”
In a barren mountain, over three hundred miles north of Black Tortoise City, HeadofGod was sitting on a fallen tombstone. LeftHandofGod closed the communicator and informed him of a new job.
“Imperial Capital? Their price? The target?” HeadofGod quickly asked with brightened eyes.
“Guild masters Invincible East of the Sun Moon Cult, Blood Rakkhasa of the Rakkhasa Troop, Fierce Tiger DashingDownhill of the Fierce Tiger Gang, and FlyingEagle of the Eagle Fortress. We will be paid 300,000 gold coins for killing any of them. If one of us dies, we’ll be compensated 50,000 gold coins. There’s also a bonus 100,000 gold coins for teleportation fees,” LeftHandofGod quickly replied.
“How generous!” The rest of God Familia gasped.
“1.2 million gold coins for four people, plus teleportation fees and even compensation. They need to have at least 1.5 million gold coins ready to make this request. Who is so cruelly determined? Just how much hatred do they harbor for those guys?” TheFugitive couldn’t help but ask.
1.5 million gold coins in the black market was equivalent to 30 million RMB. 30 million RMB to get your opponents to drop just one level, there was no one willing to do such a thing without a very special reason.
“They didn’t reveal their identity, and we won’t bother ourselves with it. Moreover, they especially adjured that we can only go there to kill and must not interfere in anything else,” LeftHandofGod added.
“Seems they’re vying for something.” HeadofGod sneered.
“So what do we do, boss? Do we take it? How about we also go take a look and see what they’re fighting over for?” The members of God Familia all directed their eyes at HeadofGod.
“Why not? Of course, we’ll take it! We are the number 1 assassin band in the game, there’s no mission that we can’t complete. As for the no interference condition, we’ll abide by it. After all, they said that because they trust us,” HeadofGod stressed.
“Let’s go!”
The twelve tore their Recall Scrolls and returned to Black Tortoise City. Then, they entered the Teleportation Portal to the Imperial Capital.
……
In the present, from all corners of the Imperial Capital, the guild masters one after another led their troops towards the Demon Forest to join the battle for the Evil God’s legacy.
“So dark.”
Fatty looked around at his pitch-black surroundings in frustration.
Above is pitch black, below is pitch black! What the hell is with this Evil God? Does he have some secret disease that disallows him to touch light or something?
Still scared by his 'intimate' experience with the Crafty Spike Insect, Fatty didn’t dare to act thoughtlessly. He first used the Crystal Maze of Terror to check out the area, but the mirror still showed nothing but pitch-black darkness. Fatty quickly took out a torch, lit and threw it far away, then instantly vanished into Stealth.
Buzz!
A series of buzzing sounds rang out the moment the torch was lit. Countless Crafty Spike Insects whizzed over from all directions and snuffed out the torch fire.
Several Crafty Spike Insects flew past Fatty’s head, nearly discovering him.
“Damn it! This is cheating!” Fatty was exasperated. With these things here, he couldn’t even use fire to check out the surroundings.
