Chapter 165: Reach The Top (1/2)
He Yi’s appearance caused a small commotion as the players of Floating Ice City shot her admiring looks. Everyone said that the Fruit Knife Goddess, Wind Fantasy was the prettiest woman in Floating Ice City, but who would’ve thought that the leader of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls was every bit her equal?
Whoosh whoosh…
A clear breeze blew up her milky-colored cape and her beautiful hair. He Yi was clad in silver armor, and the metal linings clinging tightly to her breasts only served to accentuate her already amazing curves. But that didn’t matter. What really mattered was that He Yi was petrifying men wherever she looked. In a sense, the smile on her gentle face and the flowing light in her eyes were as deadly as a Medusa’s gaze.
…...
“Am I beautiful?” He Yi stopped in front of me and lifted her cape a bit. She looked like a princess knight the way she was acting.
I nodded. Gui Guzi nodded. Our leader was absolutely one of the deadliest players in existence if we judged by beauty alone. It was to the point where I suspected that the whole reason Candlelight Shadow went after us like a madman back in Spirit of Grief was because of He Yi, not me.
He Yi licked her lips and smiled. “Stop looking and join the guild already. I just cleared out three slots for you guys!”
“Got it!”
I nodded and sent her a join request. At the same time, I asked her, “Boss, the guild hasn’t reached Rank 2 yet, has it?”
“No, but we’re almost there. Let’s work hard tonight and get it to Rank 2 before bedtime!”
“Okay, not a problem!”
A while later, the three Dark Musketeers appeared in Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and caused a massive wave of commotion of our own.
“Oh god, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand really is joining us? I can’t believe I finally got to meet a CGL pro in person, the former Falling Dust himself no less. Ah, my world is falling apart…”
“Beiming Xue is here too? Wahahaha, that’s awesome! Our archers will finally have a backbone we can rely on! Beiming Xue, I love you…”
“Gui Guzi is here as well! Brother Gui, you’re my idol! There’s no one who’s tankier than you, my super tank! The way you keep your enemies at bay while they poke holes all over your body during the competition is the shit, man~~”
“Tsk tsk, now that the champions of ‘Who Will Fight Me’ have joined Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, Floating Ice City is all but ours to take! Hell yeah!”
…...
I had to say though, the three battles at Silver Moon Valley, Who Will Fight Me, and Greedy Wolf Forest had made Bloody Mercenaries bloody famous in Floating Ice City. In fact, we were now more famous than Mad Dragon and even Gods of Destruction, the so-called second best guild of the China server!
Of course, it would be a lot easier to eliminate Gods of Destruction if I could persuade Lin Yixin and her Snowy Cathaya to help us. However, Beauty Lin was also a temperamental woman, so I wasn’t sure who she would destroy if I carelessly dragged her into our war. She could easily decide to annihilate Bloody Mercenaries’ asses if she felt like it one day. It wasn’t even a small possibility, or at least that was what my subconsciousness kept telling me for some reason.
That being said, the entire Floating Ice City would quake if the Fruit Knife Goddess decided to make a move, so I supposed it didn’t really matter in the end.
…...
He Yi looked incredibly pleased after accepting three fearsome generals into her guild in one go. Smiling brightly and beautifully, she asked, “Say, you were planning to form a party and go on a leveling trip, right? Which party is yours? Can I join you?”
I nodded. “Of course. I’ll reserve one slot for you and take just eight people!”
“Great!”
According to the rules in Heavenblessed, a player before his third class promotion could form a 5-man party, a third-promotion player could form a 10-man party, a fourth-promotion player could form a 20-man party, and finally a fifth-promotion player could form an insane 100-man party!
I messaged inside the guild chat. “I’m gonna go on an adventure and grind some levels. Anyone would like to join me? Flash your IDs if you want to join me.”
A minute later, more than seventy players out of the ninety plus who were online were flashing their IDs. These people must have so much free time on their hands that their balls were hurting from inactivity.
I picked some names and messaged again.
“Level 60 warrior Chaos Moon, Level 61 magic knight Alexander, Level 61 priest Moon Dew, Level 61 warrior Wolf Fang, Level 61 archer Shangri-La, Level 61 tactician A Broken Smile, Level 60 mage Singing to Wine, and Level 60 mage Moonlight Stone. Come to the eastern gate so I can add you to the party. Our leader, From Water, will be joining me as well. Let’s go farm some EXP for the guild!”
All the chosen players were expressing their excitement in the guild chat.
Beauty Chaos Moon: “Hoho, did the handsome guy just say my name? He did, didn’t he?”
Beauty Moonlight Stone: “Just give me some time to kill one last mob and I’ll show up right away. Heehee, take this! Ice Dragon Howl~~”
Beauty Moon Dew: “Anyone thirsting for some heals?”
A Broken Smile: “Haha, this is perfect! I just learned the Level 60 Tactician skill called Intimidate. It reduces the stats of all enemy targets by 5%! I’m sure it’ll be very useful for grinding!”
Shangri-La: “Wow, there are so many beautiful girls in this party. I’m sure tonight’ll be a night of happiness…”
......
Rolling my eyes at the last comment, I said, “Dating is not allowed during grinding. Anyone who breaks the law will be shot at by our firing squad for ten whole minutes!”
The joke got a laugh out of everyone.
