Chapter 1064: Quan Zhen Sect having Difficulty Escaping
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The reward offered by Feng Yun Realm was extremely alluring to these mercenaries although it was just a relatively small sum.
Although w.a.n.g Yu’s group was not a pushover, they were at an overwhelming disadvantage. With enough numbers, even an army of ants could kill an elephant. These mercenaries were quite a skilled bunch too.
Even if they were killed, they would only lose 10 percent of the experience. This was nothing compared to the potential loss in gold coins.
Heeding Feng Yun Realm’s clarion call, everyone whipped out their weapons and surged forward.
Nowadays, the average level of players is around level 40. It was way past the days where players were only at level 10 or 20. Players also have better equipment and skills as they have developed a greater familiarity with their cla.s.s.
These PVP mercenaries were very good at their jobs. Each player had a specialised role and they were able to showcase a high level of coordination with their comrades.
With so many mercenaries coming at them at once, even w.a.n.g Yu did not dare to confront them head-on.
w.a.n.g Yu stepped backwards unhurriedly and Spring Halo raised his hand, enacting an encompa.s.sing barrier around them.
[Dark Barrier]!!
Spring Halo had equipped himself with a lot of equipment that reduced his casting time. After awakening, his [Dark Barrier] was almost an instant cast.
“Boom! Boom…”
There was a series of m.u.f.fled sounds that reverberated through the battlefield.
The first few players came cras.h.i.+ng into the barrier and they were not able to reach the players from Quan Zhen Sect.
Of course, [Dark Barrier] could only block the attack of melee players. It was no use for ranged attacks.
Spring Halo had an abundance of battle experience and he knew his exact role in such a skirmish.
When the [Dark Barrier] rose, Spring Halo summoned his six demons and stationed them behind the players. “Duang!”
At this moment, Crotch Lord rushed towards the front and brought his s.h.i.+eld down to reinforce the [Dark Barrier].
“Clear the way!”
Fearless gave Boson and Vainglory an [Invulnerable] state, directing them to rush into the battlefield.
[Broken Army Rising Dragon Slash]!! [Storm Prison]!!
[Shadow Chain Kick]!! [Thunderclap Three Kicks]!!
There was a huge disparity between players that had completed their awakening and those who did not. Coupled with their additional awakening skills, Boson and Vainglory dealt a crus.h.i.+ng blow to the enemies around them.
Gorgeous skills illuminated the sky and the encirclement was broken at two points.
The others followed the two and slaughtered their way out of the entrance.
Feng Yun Realm’s intention was to trap them in a corner and kill them in one fell swoop.
Under the intense bombardment, Boson and Vainglory were under a tremendous amount of pressure. Their skills were already on cooldown so if they did not resort to using their ultimate skills, they would find themselves at their wits’ end.
“Those who block me will die!!”
Ming Du exclaimed with a loud roar, as fiery flames along with lightning descended from the sky paving the way for their escape route.
Ming Du’s attack damage was the highest among the Quan Zhen Sect and he had even upgraded his lightning and fire attributes to nearly 200 points.
After the awakening, since his attributes were doubled once again and his attack damage had reached unfathomable heights, even w.a.n.g Yu would struggle to gain the upper hand under such an attack.
Ming Du’s previous declaration was not all just talk.
After this AOE skill was executed, the mercenaries were all killed wantonly. The remaining survivors were the tankers who were in a tragic state.
Before they could even take a breather, Frost Blade and Darknorth Fisher sent them back to their grave with a lethal stab. Thus, their escape route was cleaned of any obstacles.
The players from Quan Zhen Sect finally made their way out of the hotel.
However, they were all momentarily taken aback from what they saw.
Out on the street outside the entrance of the hotel was packed full with players. The crowd was as far as the eye could go.
These players emanated a fierce and murderous bloodl.u.s.t and their dressing was similar to that of the mercenaries back in the hotel.
It was obvious these new group of players were another group of mercenary that Feng Yun Realm hired.
No wonder there were no mercenaries seen on the streets of Freedom City today. The whole horde of them was called here by Feng Yun Realm.
Did Feng Yun Realm really look up to the Quan Zhen Sect, or did he lose his rationality from his obsession with revenge? He had hired so many mercenaries just to deal with a group of ten players.
The cost of ferrying this group of players was just one of the potentially huge expenses that Feng Yun Realm had incurred.
Ming Du cursed out loud upon seeing the staggering number of enemies, “F*ck, this Feng Yun Realm sure is rich!”
Fearless sneered, “He has no money at all. All the listings for gold coins online are from us. The more people he has called, the more money we can make.”
“Hehe….”
The crowd was dumbfounded… Even at this critical moment, the foremost thought on Fearless’s mind was to earn money. He was really an example of a true hustler.
As they were talking, Feng Yun Realm and the Twelve Celestial Bodies made their way out of the hotel.
Feng Yun Realm was visibly pleased with himself as he said, “Everyone, did you enjoy yourself just now? After killing so many others, your PK value should be quite substantial.”
The higher the PK value of a player, the higher their equipment drop rate. After the previous battle, the players from Quan Zhen Sect had killed almost 70 to 80 players and on average, each player would have acc.u.mulated 7 to 8 PK points. If these players were to be killed at this moment, they would definitely lose valuable equipment.
Feng Yun Realm knew that he had no effective way to capture the Quan Zhen Sect members so he had to use such an underhanded way to fight them.
“Haha!” Fearless laughed coldly, “Our PK values are quite significant but what about it?”
Fearless quickly instructed in the guild chat, “Old Bull, only you can escape from this situation this time. We will buy you time to run!”
The players could read the direness of the situation and knew that they had fallen into Feng Yun Realm’s trap this time.
Now that the whole street has been completely blocked, the only way out was through the central building.
Everyone knew that other than w.a.n.g Yu, they were going to meet a tragic end this time. Even with Ming Du’s [Teleportation], he would be shot down the moment he materialised at the next spot. The best course of action was to buy time for w.a.n.g Yu to escape so as to minimise the losses.
Feng Yun Realm continued, “What do you think will happen? As long as you die, your equipment will become mine. I am someone who follows the rules.”
“It is indeed according to the rules!”
Not waiting for Fearless to answer him, w.a.n.g Yu who was looking all over the place suddenly retorted, “But you got to have the ability to kill us first before talking so much.”
w.a.n.g Yu grinned confidently at Fearless, “Is it the first time that you guys met me? I am not someone that leaves my friends in the deep end and runs away by myself.”
