The big guilds carried their suspicions, but continued with their actions. The elites retreated from the Raging Flame Forest, and the hundred-man hunting squad charged into the Raging Flame Forest.
Glory's map was vast. This amount of people wasn't enough for a leveling area. They were far from being able to do a carpet search. What's more, they didn't dare to underestimate Lord Grim's strength. If they spread out too far, wouldn't that be giving Lord Grim an opportunity to attack?
After the hundred-man group entered Fire Forest, they split into groups of three to five. They were extremely close to each other. If they encountered Lord Grim, they would be able to quickly gather a few dozen people. After setting up such a formation, everyone felt more at ease and began to pay attention to the players active in the Flame Forest.
They weren't unfamiliar faces!
The players that appeared in Fire Forest were undoubtedly the top players in the tenth server. Almost all of these players were contributed by the big guilds.
Seeing how everyone was happily killing monsters and leveling up, the players who were chasing Lord Grim around the map were naturally very envious. At the same time, they were very dissatisfied with the guilds sitting here and enjoying the fruits of their labor. According to incomplete statistics, after this hundred-man hunting army entered Fire Forest, there were immediately more incidents of players dying while leveling up in Fire Forest. As for whether or not someone had done something behind the scenes, there was no way to find out.
"Where the hell did Lord Grim go!" The hunting party couldn't find any trace of Lord Grim's group after a long time. Complaints rose and fell.
"If we can't find him, it means that he's purposefully avoiding us. If that's the case, he won't be able to level in peace. In the end, we've achieved our goal, haven't we? "Chen Yehui said, trying to calm everyone down. He wasn't worried at all. He even wanted to sing a song to praise the current situation.
The large guilds had all been dealt a blow, and Ye Qiu had been restricted to a large extent. This situation where both sides were heavily injured was simply too perfect for him. This was the situation he wanted to see the most.
"There's no place to level. What's that guy still online for? He might as well log off." Someone said. If Lord Grim wasn't online, they would be able to level up in peace. But this guy just had to stay on the line, so they had to search everywhere and ask around.
"Everyone, don't waste too much time. Let's kill some monsters while we're at it!" Someone suggested. Thus, the combined army of over a hundred players hunted Goblins in the Fire Forest. It was quite a spectacular sight. However, with so many people sharing the experience, it could only be described as better than nothing.
But what about Ye Xiu and the others? At this moment, they were really still in the Raging Flame Forest. The forest terrain was not inferior to the maze terrain of Line Canyon. It was very advantageous for dodging. At first, Ye Xiu boldly wanted to try and see if he could take advantage of this terrain to kill a hundred people. However, after secretly observing the formation of the various large Guilds, he knew that it was impossible for him to achieve such a feat.
In the end, they were still a group of veterans, and they were becoming more and more aware of his abilities. They would no longer reveal too big of a flaw for him to exploit.
"Are we leaving?" Su Mucheng asked.
"There's no rush." Ye Xiu said as he fought the monsters. With the three of them in a team, the experience gained from killing monsters was within the normal range. It was much more efficient than the hundred-man team. They just had to carefully maintain a distance from those guys. For Ye Xiu, this was not difficult. In the game, a character's movement speed was not difficult to determine. The distance between the coordinates was also fixed. Thus, it was easy to grasp the timing. This was also why Ye Xiu could always easily shake off the pursuers.
Ye Xiu knew exactly how long it would take for the opponent to reach him.
At this moment, the three of them were fighting as they moved. They were not too close to the hundred-man team, but they were not too far away either. They always maintained a distance that would not expose them. From time to time, they would get closer to observe the enemy's progress. Just like this, the three of them traveled a large circle around the Fire Forest. The hundred-man team was not far yet close to them. They had passed through quite a few places.
"What exactly are you planning?" Su Mucheng asked.
"I want to see if the Fire Witch Card Artisans is here." Ye Xiu said.
"He probably hasn't spawned yet, right?" Su Mucheng said.
"Yeah, but it should be soon." Ye Xiu said.
There was also a ranking list for wild boss kills. Currently, only their last kill record was on the ranking list. This meant that the Fire Witch Card Artisans had only been killed once. It had been a few days since the last kill. The big guilds had already entered the Level 33 area. At this level, they would come to the Fire Forest to level up. They would also pay close attention to the Fire Witch Card Artisans respawn. There was no record of a second kill. This meant that the Fire Witch Card Artisans had not respawned since the last kill.
Apart from the three respawns per week, there were no other rules. If the boss was killed on Monday, it would only respawn on Sunday. It wasn't that this kind of probability didn't exist. It was just that it was relatively rare.
The reason why the Fire Witch Card Artisans hadn't spawned for so many days was most likely because it had encountered such a small probability event. However, as long as the third kill wasn't completed within a week, the respawn was 100% guaranteed. In other words, as long as the boss was killed once or twice, on Sunday, even if it was at the last second, it would respawn a second or third time. However, in this kind of situation, if it was only the second respawn, then the third respawn would be fooled. If the system really played this kind of shameless trick, then no one could do anything. However, for now, there had never been a situation where a map boss was only killed twice a week and the third respawn was done in such a shameless manner.
It was already the weekend. The Fire Witch Card Artisans that hadn't respawned a second time in a week was obviously getting closer and closer.
The three of them continued to kill as they ran and chatted. They kept looking around for traces of the Fire Witch Card Artisans. However, apart from this, Ye Xiu was also paying attention to the actions of the players who were fighting monsters.
Hard work paid off. After continuously moving around like this to level up, Ye Xiu finally made a discovery.
"This way!" Ye Xiu suddenly called out to the two of them. However, he suddenly changed the direction of their advance.
"What's wrong?" Su Mucheng asked.
"Follow those two players and take a look," Ye Xiu said.
Su Mucheng looked forward and saw the "two players" that Ye Xiu had mentioned. They had the same guild title and weren't leveling in the same area. However, from where the three of them were currently standing, they could see the two players rushing in the same direction at full speed.
"The boss has respawned!" Su Mucheng also realized something.
"Most likely," Ye Xiu said. The three of them no longer fought any monsters and simply followed in the direction that the two of them had run out from.
It was obvious that the players from the two guilds had discovered the Fire Witch Card Artisans. That was why they had hurriedly gathered people and wanted to kill the boss before anyone else discovered it.
Ye Xiu had been paying attention to this all along the way. At this moment, he finally found a clue.
As they chased, they naturally avoided the annoying hundred-man army. In the depths of Fire Forest, a ball of fire gradually appeared. The closer they got, the clearer the sounds of battle became.
Finally, in an open space in the forest, Ye Xiu's group saw a guild surrounding the Fire Witch Card Artisans. There were six players in total, including the two players that had followed them all the way here.
"He's from Parade." Su Mucheng said.
Parade was naturally one of the Clubs in the Glory Alliance. They were a very mid-tier team. Just like every other Club, they had a guild in-game. Even though they couldn't compare to the Three Great Guilds, they were still much stronger than the entertainment guilds that many players created themselves. After all, any Club would have its own set of fans. If these fans entered the game, they would undoubtedly choose to join the Club guild that they supported. Normal player guilds didn't have this sort of advantage.
Baozi Invasion saw that the other side had six players. It was very similar to last night's situation. He immediately became excited: "I know. When they're about to kill the Boss, we'll jump out and kill the six of them first. Then we'll kill the Boss. Hahahaha."
"Haha, you learn pretty fast!" Ye Xiu said.
"Of course." Baozi Invasion was very pleased.
"But this time, we won't do that." Ye Xiu said.
"Ah?"
"This time, we're going to be good spectators." Ye Xiu said.
"Oh?"
"You two hide well. I'll go take a look." Ye Xiu said. Lord Grim turned around and disappeared into the forest. Not long after, Su Mucheng and Baozi Invasion heard a shout from the depths of the forest: "Lord Grim, over there!!!"
The forest seemed to become lively all of a sudden. The crisp sound of footsteps on dried leaves and branches grew louder and louder, getting closer and closer. Lord Grim's figure quickly appeared in the two's field of vision.
"Hurry hurry hurry, hide!" Ye Xiu called out to the two.
As for the members of Parade who were focused on killing the boss, their party had gained two more members, making it a total of eight. However, they quickly noticed the crisp sound of footsteps.
Hearing the sound but not seeing the person meant that the distance was still a bit far. However, the sound could still be heard, which meant that the sound was very loud, which meant that there were many people.
The eight immediately became anxious. They hadn't killed the Boss long ago! How did people find them so quickly? The eight hastily killed the Boss and tried to find a place to hide, but it was all too late. Many figures quickly appeared in the forest, getting closer and closer to them.
These people approached and looked around. Then, they were all astonished.
"Fire Witch, Card Artisans!!!"
Countless voices were filled with the same surprise. This gain was too unexpected. Everyone's attention turned to this side. Where did Lord Grim go? In an instant, no one cared.
The reinforcements continued to arrive. They had originally planned to surround Lord Grim, but now they had surrounded Fire Witch, Card Artisans. As well as the eight Parade players who were currently fighting Fire Witch, Card Artisans.
