Solitude went to the north gate of Cloud Cloud City to meet up with the other members. At the same time, he sent a faster player to the Mercenary Building to pick up the quest. Apart from the upper limit, there were many other benefits to joining an advanced mercenary group. For example, a Level 1 mercenary group could only pick up one quest, while a Level 5 mercenary group could pick up five. Of course, there were no restrictions on the number of quests that players could pick up.
In addition, advanced mercenary groups could also give their members the authority to pick up quests. For example, the player who was running to pick up the quest was one of the people with the authority.
When Solitude arrived at the north gate, he saw his fellow mercenary group members chatting. When he saw Solitude, he immediately went up to greet him. He wanted to know how strong this "Thousand Miles Drunk" was.
Speaking of this, Solitude felt sullen. There were rumors on the internet that Thousand Miles Drunk could instantly kill Mages. His magic attack was extremely powerful. However, against the four of them, he only used Teleport, which didn't have any attack power. Then, when he killed a Thief, he showed off his high magic damage. As for him and the mage, they were killed by Gu Fei's blade.
But no matter what, the two major flaws of Thousand Miles Drunk had been proven.
First, he had low magic power.
Second, he had slow casting time.
No matter how you looked at it, these two major flaws were fatal to a mage, and they were very, very fatal. However, this guy had actually managed to survive until now, and had even become famous, being known as the strongest person in Cloud City. Everyone felt that their brains were a bit insufficient.
"Come, everyone, let's discuss this!" Solitude gathered everyone to come up with a plan.
"What's so difficult about this? Slow casting time means easy to dodge. His magic power is low, so of course we'll lure him into casting. Once his magic power is exhausted, what use is his magic damage? "someone said disdainfully.
This was indeed a very correct plan. When Solitude and the others were in the valley, they had actually come up with this plan. However, they didn't expect Gu Fei to be so strong in close combat even after losing his magic power. However, Solitude felt that this was the main problem. If they had been prepared, they wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state. Now that they had another powerful opponent and understood Gu Fei so well, taking him down shouldn't be a problem at all.
At this time, the Mercenary Building announced that the quest had been accepted. The Black Hand Mercenary Group's Mercenary Quest List had appeared in the system's Mercenary Quest List. After waiting for a while, the guild leader of the small guild arrived at the north gate with a few people. When he saw the Black Hand Mercenary Group's formation, he timidly asked if they had to pay more.
"Of course not. Previously, we underestimated our opponent's strength and caused you to suffer losses. We should apologize, "said Solitaire under the Moon.
To be honest, their guild was really small, so small that it couldn't even compare to the Black Hand mercenary group. After hiring this group of people, he no longer saw himself as a consumer god. He always seemed to be a yes-man and even seemed to be fawning over them. The fact that the other side's experts were so calm and reasonable made him feel somewhat flattered.
"Did you mention their coordinates in your quest?" Soliloquy asked the members of the small guild. Their mercenary group's quest bar only showed that they were helping a certain guild complete a certain quest. It didn't say that they were sharing the quest with the guild.
For this quest, the guild members had to assassinate the bandit leader in order to complete the quest. Only then would the Black Hand Mercenary Group's quest be evaluated as completed. The final reward was only the part that was agreed upon with the employer beforehand. The employer's reward had nothing to do with the mercenary group.
After looking at their quest bar, the small guild leader shook his head, "It's still the same. When the quest was issued, it showed the coordinates of the entrance to Cloud Mist Valley. It only said that they would escort the criminal back to Cloud Mist City from there."
"Although the north gate is the closest path to that direction, they might not necessarily go that way." Soliloquy frowned.
"Do you know where they will be escorted back to Cloud Mist City? We can wait for them to come, "someone suggested.
However, the small guild leader shook his head, "It only said Cloud Mist City."
"Has anyone done this type of quest before?" Soliloquy asked his brothers. Most of the mercenary group members were quest experts. In the end, everyone shook their heads.
"According to common sense, shouldn't the criminal be sent to prison?" someone said.
"This is a game. Maybe it'll end when they reach the quest announcement."
"Or maybe it'll end when they enter Cloud Mist City …"
Everyone talked at once. The more Soliloquy listened, the more he got a headache. Mercenary groups weren't big guilds, and their numbers were limited. Moreover, there were only about twenty people coming to the north gate. It was impossible for them to split up.
"Like this!" Soliloquy pointed at a few people, all of whom had excellent speed. "You guys go out from the east, west, and north gates. Choose different paths and advance towards the coordinates of Cloud Mist Valley. When you see them, judge where they are going. Then, we'll set up an ambush."
"What do they look like?" someone asked.
Soliloquy pondered for a moment and easily summed up the characteristics of the group. "An adult and a group of children."
"Oh!" everyone answered and immediately set off.
After giving out his orders, Soliloquy turned to the players of the small guild and said, "Don't show your people for now. Maybe they will recognize you. Don't expose our intentions."
The group didn't say anything else. They set off at the city gate and quietly waited for the scout to report. In the meantime, a few members of the Black Hand Mercenary Group who were interested in A Thousand Miles Drunk rushed to the north gate after hearing the news. For most of the Black Hand Mercenary Group players, the quest was fake. Their real goal was to see the strongest opponent that was about to arrive.
After waiting for a few minutes, the scout finally reported, "I saw a group of players coming from that direction towards the north gate."
"Is it an adult and a group of children?" Soliloquy asked.
"It's still too far. I can't see it clearly. Wait for me to get closer," the scout reported. "But this group is really neat! What are they doing? "
"That's right, it's them!" Soliloquy was excited. "Don't get any closer. Keep an eye on them from afar. Don't let them notice us." After giving the order to the scout, Soliloquy gestured to the brothers in front of him. "They're here. Let's go!"
"Then, what about us?" The people from the small guild were at a loss. They weren't sure if the Black Hand Mercenary Group was still helping them with the quest.
"You guys don't need to go. Wait for my news. Just come and complete your quest!" Soliloquy laughed.
The scout at the front kept reporting the coordinates of the Ultimate Class Three. Seeing that they were getting closer, Soliloquy split his members into three teams, one on the left, one on the right, and one in the middle. They fanned out from three different directions.
Soliloquy, who was in the middle, could already see their opponents coming.
The Ultimate Class Three marched forward in unison. From time to time, they would shout their commands and kick up a cloud of dust. That was the signal that they were coming.
"Get ready, get ready!" Soliloquy hid in the middle of the team and let his brothers, who he didn't know, lead the way. They all approached the Ultimate Class Three team as if nothing had happened.
"Find A Thousand Miles Drunk first. Archers, get ready. Instant kill him," Soliloquy commanded. Actually, he was at a loss. He felt that there were countless ways to deal with a Mage like this. For example, if a few Archers used Homing Arrows at the same time, how could he escape? How did this guy get to where he was now? This question was too profound.
The Archers hid deep in the formation. They nocked their arrows and stared at the students with Eagle Eyes, searching for a target.
Black robes and dark purple longswords!
This was the attire of A Thousand Miles Drunk. But no matter how they looked, there was no one dressed like this in the team. They were all dressed in rags and had children's faces. A bunch of children and an adult? Where was the adult when there were a bunch of children?
"No target, no target!" The Archers reported.
Priests didn't have Eagle Eyes, so Soliloquy couldn't see clearly. After hearing this report, he wondered if he had found the wrong person. He led the team forward for a bit and came face to face with the Ultimate Class Three. Soliloquy was sure that he hadn't found the wrong person. This formation was familiar, some of the faces were familiar, and to them, he also looked familiar. A few of them were looking at him with beaming eyes!
"F * ck, we've been tricked!" Soliloquy suddenly came to a realization. He looked carefully at the other side's formation. Sure enough, the captured bandit leader wasn't there. The other side had already predicted that they would make a comeback and used a large group to attract their attention. Two or three people led the bandit leader in another direction.
"The target isn't here!" Soliloquy hurriedly shouted in the mercenary channel. The players who had been in charge of spying had finished their mission and were running in this direction. They all wanted to see the glory of killing the Mage.
"Hurry toward the city gates. Send people to all four gates! There are about two or three targets. They're escorting the bandit leader, "Soliloquy shouted. Solitude Under the Moonlight shouted. At the same time, he also sent a private message to the people from the small guild, telling them to send out some people and quickly find traces of Thousand Miles Drunk's group.
The students smiled and swayed in front of Soliloquy. "Teacher has a message for you."
"Teacher? A Thousand Miles Drunk? "Soliloquy was a little confused.
"Yes, Teacher said that we'll meet in the competition, so we'll meet again in the competition!"
"F * ck!" Soliloquy was short of breath. He looked at the group of children in front of him and really wanted to slaughter them all.
