Chapter 438 - 410: The Fortunate Twin Strikes of the Dragon Slayer Guild
Maybe it’s because they took into account the girls’ fragile self-esteem, or because they were wary of the unreasonable temper of an enraged woman, in any case, Chang Liang’s team didn’t completely annihilate the Bloodrose Team. The Bloodrose Team shamefully fled back to the city amidst chaos, and not a single one of their low-level troops survived.
The Bloodrose Team was downcast, to say the least, and the entire Eastern Wilderness Town channel was filled with curses.
Just then, Bloodrose Holy Spear suddenly asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you think about recommending these three friends to join our Guild?"
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched, what was inevitable had finally arrived! That’s right, locals always have an advantage, not to mention my stunning entrance and the big face I carry. But who said we’re friends?
Rose Knight smiled and said, "How about it, the two new students, and Brother Xiang, want to join our Guild? Although we just suffered a defeat and failed to complete the instance—"
Little Fang immediately said, "We’re very happy to join the Guild, I feel very happy to be with everyone!"
Playing with beauties, I’m happy too! So Brother Xiang also said indifferently, "As long as the two of them are happy, I have no objections."
The whole team of beauties spoke sarcastically, "Brother Xiang, you should know our Guild rarely adds male players, you really have no reason to object!"
Holy crap! Wasn’t I just pretending to be a gentleman? Brother Xiang said, "Oh! It’s kind of embarrassing, my newbie skills are limited, I hope I won’t cause any trouble to everyone."
The beauties laughed, "Just learn it slowly!" "Moreover, Brother Xiang is dual-talented from the start, your prospects are incredible!" "Exactly!"
So,
—Guild Channel: A warm welcome to Blood Arrow Fragrance for joining the Bloodrose Guild.
—Guild Channel: A warm welcome to Blood Arrow Fragrance for joining the Bloodrose Guild.
—Guild Channel: A warm welcome to Junxiang for joining the Bloodrose Guild.
Hahaha! I’ve successfully infiltrated the beauties’ inner circle! Although it was when everyone was unhappy.
—Guild Channel [Bloodrose Rosa]: "Welcome to the newcomers, I’m the president of the Bloodrose Guild, let’s look after each other in the future!"
Little Fang and Little Li hurriedly said, "Hello, President! Please take good care of us in the future."
Brother Xiang also said hurriedly, "You’re too kind, President!"
Without further pleasantries, Bloodrose Rosa shifted the topic, "I’m aware of what happened just now. It’s clear that it was Dragon Slayer seeking revenge for the little advantage we took from them yesterday. Currently, we don’t have the power to compete with Dragon Slayer, so let’s turn our sorrow into strength, keep leveling up and developing ourselves. As for the leveling of the newcomers, I’ll leave it to Rose Knight to arrange."
Rose Knight responded, "Got it, I’ll handle it."
Holy crap! I want the beauties to arrange things, not you, you clown!
But Bloodrose Qiqi was still defiant, "Little Zhu? Little Zhu, are you there? This Chang Liang is too arrogant, do you have the confidence to deal with him?"
Little Pig Run replied, "Yes!"
Little Pig Run? Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped again. Isn’t he the number one player in the China Region? Wasn’t he with Star? How was he also in their Guild?
Bloodrose Qiqi was overjoyed and said, "Then what are we waiting for, go get revenge for us."
Little Pig Run said, "First, Qiqi sis, stock up a few hundred Griffins for me in Eastern Wilderness City, then I’ll show you a performance of eagles catching chickens!"
The whole team burst into laughter.
Bloodrose Qiqi angrily said, "Can’t you ride a Griffin and fly there directly, just take your troops and fly over!"
Little Pig Run replied, "..."
Rose scolded, "Stop messing around, let’s adjust our daily routine for today."
"Got it."
Little Pig Run can ride a Griffin and fly? Sayings unintended by the speaker, may be taken to heart by the listeners! Da Fei was shocked once more! Could it be that this Little Pig Run was already a legendary Griffin Knight? Holy crap! This is a flying hero! I heard that during public beta, some foreigner figured out how to become a Bone Dragon Knight, so freaking awesome!
Da Fei once again felt a sense of urgency. Initially, he was already shocked by Chang Liang’s combat strength, but Chang Liang was practically unrelated to him, let alone having a somewhat friendly connection with Dragon Slayer Guild. His threat wasn’t substantial. However, this number one player in China Region, Little Pig Run, was undoubtedly his enemy! Just by that stance before, wouldn’t the beauty command him to annihilate whoever she wants? Bro needs to find a way to counter him!
But actually, countering a flying hero should be much simpler than dealing with Army’s Roar, right? After all, a flying hero still needs to land to battle, doesn’t he? Besides, when I’m on the ship or in the city, his threat isn’t that big, right? Yeah, stay calm! Stay calm! The key is that it’s no use for me to rush now. I have to take it one step at a time.
Alas, there are so many masters in this world. I can no longer indulge in the self-gratification of being the first among amateurs. Amateur will always be amateur, and there is a fundamental difference in operational awareness with the professionals, like the difference just now between Bloodrose and Chang Liang. To bridge this gap, there might be only one method—overwhelming them with high-tech! I need to continue climbing the high-tech ladder! Divine Artifacts, I need more Divine Artifacts! Damn, I can’t wait to take down that stupid Eight-Headed Snake and that Divine Turtle!
Now Bloodrose Holy Spear starts giving orders in the Guild channel: "We’re adjusting today’s activities. All members gather in Grey Stone Town to tackle the instance. The three newbies come to farm experience too. Make sure everyone replenishes their potions and troops’ supplies. We should be ready in 10 minutes. This instance is quite challenging, so I hope everyone will focus and give it their all, leaving behind any negative mood from earlier..."
"Roger that!"
Oh wow! So we three alts get to farm experience just like that? This Bloodrose Guild is actually not too bad, huh? It’s truly warm as spring to comrades, and as cold as autumn to enemies! Good, farming experience, I like! Wahahaha!
...
At this moment, the video of Dragon Slayer Chang Liang single-handedly facing a hundred enemies in the Eastern Wilderness has stirred up the forums. If defeating ordinary players meant nothing, then the way Bloodrose, this damaged red flower, set off Chang Liang, solidified his fame as the number one person in Dragon Slayer and once again shook the industry!
Forums from countries around the world promptly shared the video of this battle and defined it as the rise of the Beastman force in China Region!
Using this video as an opportunity, Dragon Slayer Guild aggressively recruited new members, calling for newcomers to join the Beastman ranks. They also released a technical post written by Chang Liang, analyzing the advantages of Beastman and providing detailed growth strategies, etc. For a time, the Beastman Cities in China Region truly saw a noticeable increase in the presence of level 1 Beastman Players. The effect was indeed immediate.
As good news comes in pairs, Ma Yinglong, who was indulging in a celebratory drink, received a report from Lei Huolong of Hell’s Side: "The Demon King has dispatched 200,000 Demon Workers, and has sent special forces to protect the workers as they build. Construction at the Pool of Radiance has kicked off across the board!"
Ma Yinglong, excited, downed his glass of red wine: "No need for a video, show me live!"
Lei Huolong, thrilled, switched the camera view: "Please look, boss!"
At this moment, the area around the Teleportation Array at the Demon Camp was crowded with Demon Priests. The Teleportation Array glowed red as waves of Demon construction workers and machinery were teleported from various Demon Cities, immediately being directed to their respective construction sites to start work right away.
And along the shores of the Pool of Radiance, a faint mist enveloped the area where Demon Workers were busy in the mist drilling holes, drawing lines for alignment, moving stones and transporting soil—busy activity was everywhere.
Ma Yinglong couldn’t help but wonder: "What’s this mist?"
Lei Huolong excitedly said, "This is the special forces illusion fog demon sent by the Demon King. Construction within the fog released by the fog demon can effectively shield us from the Elf Kingdom’s reconnaissance! Boss, didn’t you notice that there’s no sound from the construction site? All the noises have been blocked! If you’re looking at it from the enemy’s point of view, it might just appear as a stone beach with nothing but the sound of waves!"
Ma Yinglong laughed heartily, "There’s such high-tech too? Great! That’s awesome! Now that the Beastman side has made some headway, you guys from Hell’s Side need to step it up!"
Lei Huolong joyfully replied, "Don’t worry, Boss. We only need four real-time hours to complete the construction of the level 1 wall! If necessary, there is no problem upgrading to a level 2 wall with the excess stone materials."
Ma Yinglong, spirited and commanding, gestured grandly, "A wall can never be too thick. Since we’ve finally moved the Demon King, let’s not miss this opportunity. Keep on building! We’ll continue to transport stone materials your side. Upgrade as many levels as we can!"
Lei Huolong was ecstatic, "Yes, Boss!"
...
For Chang Liang, the so-called beating hundreds of opponents single-handedly was nothing to boast about; in his view, it was no different from defeating a few hundred monsters. Having harvested a substantial amount of merit, he also completed the Beastman NPC Chieftain’s hunting mission, and of course, the next step was to escort him back to receive the task reward.
Of course, his own team could handle this wrapping-up affair on his behalf. As for himself, he decided to hang back with the team and take a break, a rare opportunity to rest amidst the day’s hectic tasks. Naturally, Chang Liang was not afraid of any so-called ambushes or sneak attacks from enemies because the Wolf Cavalry and the Three-headed Dogs from the Hell Race both had scent-based early warning capabilities, rendering those lurking enemies no threat to the Beastman troops.
Chang Liang stretched and lowered the back of his seat, closing his eyes to rest and recuperate.
The team advanced windingly through the vast wilderness, and the NPC Chieftain’s troops began to sing a heroic and desolate song of triumph. Chang Liang, with closed eyes, suddenly felt that the Beastmen’s music wasn’t half bad, eh? Subconsciously, his fingers also began tapping along with the rhythm of the song.
Now, the team was nearing the clan’s camp, and it was at this moment that the Wolf Cavalry let out a warning growl—something was up!
Chang Liang’s team immediately became alert, spreading out in a battle formation to search. However, no lurking enemies were to be found in the vicinity. What was going on?
But the NPC Chieftain noticed something. He sniffed and rushed to the side of the road into the bushes, dragging out two blood-drenched corpses of Beastman patrolling soldiers from the underbrush, each with a feathered arrow from the Human Race troops lodged in their throats!
A single arrow to the throat! Instant kill! Was this damage caused by a type of soldier? Or was it part of a scripted event?
But if a single arrow was fatal, then why were there so many more wounds on the two corpses, and so much more blood?
The Beastman Chieftain roared, "Who is it! I will tear him to pieces!"
Meanwhile, Chang Liang’s logistics and strategy team were exchanging puzzled looks! They certainly knew that a new mission had appeared, but this task was clearly beyond the planned schedule. To accept it or not? (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com) with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets.
