Chapter 554: Is Every Babe This Amazing? Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bauhinia and Violent Army Clan were nine seconds late in reaching the warp portal, losing their bet to the Fallen Angels. This was why Violet Orchid and Dinosaurcerer were spending a lot to treat everyone a meal at the Moonlit Restaurant.
As everyone from the three clans feasted lavishly, and with the intent to drain Bauhinia and Violent Army Clan to poverty, the high-ranking members were having a meeting to decide which cities or towns needed rescue…
There were twenty-four cities and towns that needed saving. They could postpone saving thirteen cities at the moment because these places had many of the three clans" Tier 5 players—meaning these cities were not an immediate threat. The other eleven cities, though, had weaker members that had a lot of Honor Points under their belt—a total of over 5700 Honor Points. Qin Ruo and his friends needed to save them fast or else thousands of Honor Points would be lost.
Besides, Qin Ruo noticed that not every city and town was under siege. The ones that were under attack were mostly famous towns with some tactical advantages. A good example would be Savis Town. The town was small but its location was ideal for level grinding. Because of that, there was heavy traffic of players in the town, making it an ideal place to strike deals and have networking. Therefore, Savis Town became one of the most popular towns in the game.
Other than that, there was also Bailey Town. This town was quite near to the Goblin Mountains, which contained a rich amount of minerals. This, in turn, resulted in a lot of miners gathering at the mountain and Bailey Town. This was probably the reason why the town had attracted the Underworld Horde…
Luckily the specters did not attack the mines. Or else, Bailey Town would be flooded with people after the miners were all killed and, in turn, create an insane amount of skeletons in the mountains!
"So, have we decided which city would be our first priority?"
Qin Ruo knew Ace of Spades would have everything sorted, so, he directly asked her without wasting any time looking at the situation in every single city.
Ace of Spades replied, "We have more clan members in Bailey Town and Anser Canyon. The former requires more aid than the latter. Anser Canyon has only two Liches, and we have many capable clan members there. Besides, Steel Dude"s there too. The total Honor Points there amounts to about 3900 points. As for Bailey, there are three Liches sieging the town at the moment…"
"I see…"
After pondering for a few seconds, Qin Ruo made his decision, "Sis Violet, Dino! I"ll need you to head to Bailey Town with your men to keep the Liches at bay. Homme Fatale and I will head over later…". Then he saw Xiaoxiao, who seemed to be deep in thought, and added, "Xiaoxiao, you"ll come with me too."
With Steel Dude and his gang, Qin Ruo was confident that he could take out two Liches with the aid of Homme Fatale and Xiaoxiao. It shouldn"t take long before they were able to rendezvous with Violet Orchid.
However, Xiaoxiao seemed to not listen.
"Hmm?"
Qin Ruo tapped on her shoulder and asked, "Is anything wrong?"
"Ah?"
Xiaoxiao hastily switched off her private message chat and then replied, "Oh, sorry… Xinyu was private-messaging me earlier. She and her friend are both trapped in Rue City. The Lich has almost reached the city"s warp portal."
Qin Ruo could not help but frown.
"How many members?"
"Only she and her friend, "Pretty Woman" from Ascendant Saber."
"Then, tell them to log off. Quickly."
"No." Xiaoxiao was worried. "According to Xin Yu, Pretty Woman has over 200 Honor Points on her. It took her a lot of effort to get that many… and besides, there are specters everywhere in the city at the moment."
Qin Ruo was finally interested. Xin Yu was not one who would lie about things, so, it must have been the truth that Pretty Woman had over 200 Honor Points on her— which was quite a huge amount of Honor Points. With this many points, she could very well be in the Top 5000 on the Leaderboard.
"How many Liches does Rue have?"
"One."
"Oh, one…" Qin Ruo let out a sigh of relief. He turned to Black Rock and Subjugator. "Pardon me, friends. Perhaps you could do me a favor and help out my friend at Rue City…"
"Oh, stop it!" Black rock threw a Qin Ruo a smirk. "Don"t you give us that. We"re not outsiders. Just tell us the coordinates and we"ll swing over right away… and… are the two friends of yours… lookers?"
Subjugator turned and stared at Black Rock in disgust.
"What? I just want to know how they look so that we could find them quicker. It"s true… Hey, don"t give me that look. I have a girlfriend myself… I love her very much. I have no ulterior motives… This I swear…"
"They"re in danger. I"ll go."
Having given a curt response, Judge leaped out of the restaurant.
"f.u.c.k! Even you want to stop me from chasing after the babes… Ahem! I mean, I"m off to save our friends now!" Black Rock"s panicky words inadvertently gave him away. Unable to face the stare of his friends, he quickly rushed out of the restaurant.
At Rue City…
In just a couple of minutes, the city had now been fully invaded by the Undead Horde. Led by the Lich, Tier 4 and Tier 5 skeletons marched to the streets and clashed with the players. However, to the players it was not at all despair. As the specters were now inching toward the Warp and Resurrection Portals, they were also entering the attack range of the players, who were standing on high ground.
In a flash, Pretty Woman, Xin Yu and other Tier 4 players launched a barrage of long ranged attacks from the walls and city gate! They then deployed two groups of Elementalists to block out the other oncoming specters at the gate while the rest of the players swarmed over to the Spectral Shaman. In less than a minute, the shaman was slain.
"Sis Pretty! We did it!"
"The Spectral Shaman"s dead!"
"Haha! We did it! Maybe we could head over and take out the Lich now, eh?"
Under the excellent leaders.h.i.+p of Pretty Woman and with the aid of the debuff abilities from her Blue-winged b.u.t.terfly and the incredible a.s.sault of "Little Eye", the players were able to defeat the Spectral Shaman and other specters with ease. This caused their morale to surge high up.
However, Pretty Woman was unimpressed with the suggestion to attack the Lich… The Spectral Shaman was just a mere Tier 5 Miniboss. It was not comparable to a Tier 6 Mega Boss. "Take out the Lich"? What a joke!
Suddenly, Xin Yu widened her starry eyes and squealed with joy, "Oh yes! Oh yes! Sis Pretty! Sis Xiaoxiao replied me! She said Whitewater Town was under siege earlier so she could not reply. She and Brother Qin are now sending people over to kill that Lich!"
"Really?"
Pretty Woman"s eyes were glimmering with hope.
The players around her were doubtful. Most of them were not as stupid as the one who suggested that everyone should "take out the Lich". It was a natural reaction as killing a Lich was after all, not an easy feat.
Usually, a huge clan would require at least three parties to take on a Lich. They would require at least a few Radiant Priests and over twenty Tier 5 Champions. This Tier 4 little Xin Yu sure knew how to brag.
Although she did own a powerful pet, no one believed that she had the ability to summon a group of Tier 5 Champions for help.
However, Xin Yu and Pretty Woman were walking calmly towards the warp portal. Seeing them holding their hands happily, eyes glimmering with hope, the players were also encouraged by this hopeful vibe and tailed them from behind.
"Uhh… Pretty Woman… may I ask you something?"
One of the players rushed to Pretty Woman"s side.
"Sure."
Pretty Woman was not a chatty person. If was not because this player had done a lot in helping with the fight, she would not even have the mood to talk to him.
"That Bandit Babe… uhhh… who did she call? You seem to have a lot of faith in them…"
"If we don"t have faith in this bunch, then there"s no one else we could count on in the Angel Faction," replied Pretty Woman coldly.
After hearing her reply, the players and the others were stunned. They stared at one another for a short moment then hastily followed the girls.
Suddenly, an alarming system message rang in everyone"s ears saying, "The specters are approaching the warp portal! They are 80 meters away."
"All combatants! Please stand fast and hold off the specters. If they reach the warp portal, the city can be considered as fallen. Everyone"s Honor Points will be wiped clean."
"The specters are approaching the warp portal! They are 70 meters away from the…"
The Undead Horde was inching towards to warp portal at a steady rate. Every single player who stepped forward to fight them off were all almost instantaneously slaughtered by the Lich. Standing next to the warp portal, the players felt as though the Lich was like a farmer harvesting a ripened wheat field. Every grain of wheat that he fell had turned into soulless skeletons… and this farmer was approaching them by the meter.
"Oh s.h.i.+t…"
The Lich was now fifty meters away from the warp portal. Even Pretty Woman and Xin Yu were getting anxious. If it was even allowed to advance for another six… No… five seconds, Rue City would surely fall…
"Oh no! Why aren"t they here yet?!"
"What the f.u.c.k! This city sure is charming. The plaza is br.i.m.m.i.n.g with people… G.o.d d.a.m.n it… There are just too many people here… I can"t get through… Oh f.u.c.k! The Lich"s here?!"
Black Rock was squeezed into a huge crowd of players on the warp portal. As he was trying to push his way out, he saw a huge Tier 6 Mega Boss, the Lich. It was mere meters away.
The Lich had gotten this close to the warp portal by breaking through this many players too…
"Oh f.u.c.k it!"
Subjugator suddenly activated his Berserk Mode and zoomed high to the air with his Angelic Wings. He barked at Black Rock from above the crowd, "There"s no time to waste, you stupid f.u.c.king Rock!"
"If we don"t stop this Lich, all our Honor Points will go poof! f.u.c.k! If you"re not taking out the Lich, I"ll go!"
Meanwhile, thousands of players were looking at their flying-savior in awe. Angelic Wings, a mix of gold and dark gold grade equipment, a legendary grade sword, and a cloak of crimson Fire Dragon"s Combat Aura. To them, Subjugator was like the Sun G.o.d "Apollo" descending from heaven to save them from despair.
"Ha! You"re not taking my spotlight!"
As Black Rock barked out in anger, he too spread his wings and prepared to fly… and it was then that another wave of cheers was heard from the player crowd…
Judge had also arrived, swoos.h.i.+ng in the air! Without hesitation, he glided quickly towards the Lich, who was now only 30 meters away from the portal…
"G.o.d d.a.m.n it!"
Black Rock finally stopped messing around and rose up to the sky to join his friends in battling the Tier 6 Mega Boss.
Three Tier 5 Winged Champions! There were three Tier 5 Winged Champions descending to Rue City! They were like three rays of light breaking the long nightmarish night, bringing the dawn of hope to the city.
The players behind Pretty Woman could not help but look at the "little bandit babe" speechlessly.
"Wow! Is every babe this amazing?! Just one call for help and three Winged Champions immediately swooshed in to the rescue!"
