Chapter 552: Farewell Song’s Ambush (2/2)

I slashed at the Star Rhinos in front of me as I yelled, ”Let’s just stick to what we’re doing! A few assassins won’t be able to threaten us for now. Let’s continue grinding, because levels and equipment are the true foundation of a player’s power. The levels of these mobs are so high, so even if Farewell Song comes here, he won’t be able to get past my Ice Cyclone Domains. Don’t worry, we’re safe here and Li Chengfeng has gone to rescue High Fighting Spirits. Farewell Song won’t be able to do anything to them as long as our dragon warrior is there.”

”Okay!”

A small interlude later, we continued to grind mobs. I had lured over a thousand Star Rhinos this time, so even though we were clearing them at a very fast pace, it would take us at least an hour to clear all of them.

We received another piece of news in the guild channel about ten minutes later.

High Fighting Spirits exclaimed once more: ”Fucking hell, that punk Farewell Song is really fierce. He actually managed to kill a dozen of us even though we were suppressing him with cover fire. Is this punk even human?”

Xu Yang hurriedly asked, ”What’s the situation on your end right now?”

Li Chengfeng replied in a heavy voice, ”Our heads are still above the water. Even though Farewell Song managed to kill a dozen of our people in an ambush, we killed nineteen of the thirty-seven assassins he had brought with him, so I don’t think he’ll dare to peek his head out anymore.”

High Fighting Spirits laughed as he said, ”Our Li is made of some stern stuff! He’s the only one in our group who can handle Farewell Song…”

He Yi said, ”I want all of you to proceed with utmost caution. Let’s all link up as soon as possible! Gui Guzi has already brought his people there to grind.”

Li Chengfeng replied, ”Okay, we’ll head over right now. Good thing we only met Farewell Song just now. If we had met Candle Dragon, they’d probably have wiped us out by now.”

He Yi replied, ”That’s true!”

……

Everyone knew how important it was to have a peak expert on your side during these PvP battles in the wild. If Li Chengfeng hadn’t been there, Farewell Song’s assassin squad would definitely have been able to wipe out High Fighting Spirits and his men. Even though High Fighting Spirits could also be called a first-class expert, he was still quite a distance from someone like Farewell Song, a godlike expert ranked eleventh in the CGL Hall of Fame.

Even though Li Chengfeng hadn’t entered the CGL Hall of Fame either, his mechanical skill was just a little inferior to Farewell Song’s own. This coupled with the inherent advantage provided by his class meant that Li Chengfeng was completely capable of facing off against Farewell Song as a peer and not prey. However, the moment Li Chengfeng and High Fighting Spirits met Candlelight Shadow, they would be toast. After all, the title of Martial God wasn’t an empty boast. His skill at open-world PvP had been honed to perfection by countless battles.

As time slowly crawled by, I finally reached Level 133. After we had finished clearing all of those Star Rhinos, we had swept this corner of the basin clear of any mobs and I had also reached Level 134! It had only taken slightly over an hour too! Leveling in the Nine Lost Dragon Domains was really fantastic!

When I looked at China’s Heavenly Ranking, I realized that the others weren’t slacking off, and were also grinding the rhinos like mad. This was especially true for Luo River God of the Capital and God’s Dance. Man, these mages really leveled up at a ridiculous speed.

……

The two grand mages, Luo River God of the Capital and God’s Dance, easily took the top two spots while I barely clung on to the third place. Candlelight Shadow, Lin Yixin, and Stranger of Three Lifetimes were ranked fourth to sixth respectively, but it seemed as if their positions could flip at any moment. It was really hard to get onto China’s Heavenly Ranking, and even players like He Yi and Gui Guzi couldn’t get in.

Yeah, I still need to work hard. Candlelight Shadow and his men are hot on my tail and Candle Dragon is still a huge power in China. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls still have a long way to go before we can launch our counterattack,
