Unsworn Sword and the others didn't dare to be careless in the slightest when faced with the dangers of their own guild's quests. The team continued forward. At this time, Reflection Years had already found two Thieves and instructed them to stay in place after entering stealth. They were to observe if any players were following them.
The two players were from the mercenary group. This was also the main guiding principle of this quest: if there was danger, the mercenary group would go first.
The two Thieves stayed at the end of the party in Stealth. Unsworn Sword and Reflection Years anxiously waited for news. Silvermoon's anxiety was no less than theirs. In fact, she seemed even more concerned. This made Unsworn Sword and Reflection of Years extremely touched. In such a materialistic world, where else could they find such a responsible mercenary? Just think of those guys from Gongzi Elite Group. They only knew how to ask for money.
The party continued forward for another fifteen minutes, but there was still no news. The core leaders were all thinking. Silvermoon was about to give them a hint, but Unsworn Sword already said to Reflection Years, "Maybe it's a Thief. They're already in Stealth."
"Probably." Reflection Years nodded.
"If that's the case, we can't just sit back and wait," Unsworn Sword said.
"But if we let them follow behind, it's hard to say who will discover who," Reflection Years said.
Everyone nodded.
In the early stages of the game, Thieves were the best choice for a large-scale party like this. However, as players leveled up and their equipment improved, Thieves were starting to fall behind.
Why? Because of speed.
When a Thief entered Stealth, their Movement Speed would be greatly reduced to 25% of their original Movement Speed.
The slowest class in the parallel world, Priests, had a Movement Speed growth of 0.7. Without Dexterity, their naked running speed at Level 40 was 70 + 40 x 0.7 = 98. Currently, there was a new popular Level 40 item called the Boots of Nimbleness, which gave Priests a Movement Speed of + 80. This way, Priests could generally reach 178 Movement Speed. These Boots of Nimbleness were produced in large quantities and had a low market price, so their usage rate was very high. Even ordinary Priests could get a pair. These characters were basically first-rate or quasi-first-rate players. Their shoes could only be better than this. They couldn't be any worse.
For a Thief to reach this level while in Stealth, they would need to have 712 Movement Speed.
712 Movement Speed was no joke. This was a superhuman number. Gu Fei's movement speed was already considered to be extremely high, but it was only around 500. Even the slimming dance wasn't as freakish as the 712's movement.
That was why, unless players were intentionally slowing down, the days of Thieves boldly tailing players in Stealth were long gone. At this moment, Cloud Peak City's players were advancing at full speed. If a Thief tried to tail them, they would only be left behind if they remained in Stealth the entire time. So, from time to time, they would need to reveal themselves and give chase.
How to catch them when they appear was the main topic of research for anti-thief tailing. For example, the method Unsworn Sword and the others had used previously was to have a few Thieves enter stealth and observe the situation from afar. Clearly, it was a method that relied on luck. Who knows if the Thief will reveal himself when he passes by your line of sight?
"A thousand miles drunk from Young Master's elite troop seems to have anti-stealth abilities." said Feng Xing.
"F * ck, without him, how can we complete this quest?" Reflection Years was indignant. Unsworn Sword was also a bit unhappy. If he went looking for him again, who knew how many times that Young Master Han would extort from him. Speaking of which, it was strange. Why did this quest seem to be designed for a thousand miles drunk? He was constantly needed to solve crises.
"Don't look for him, we'll think of a way ourselves!" Reflection Years said to Unsworn Sword.
Unsworn Sword nodded and turned his gaze to his mercenary role model, Silvermoon. "Brother Silvermoon, do you have any good ideas?"
"Uh, at the moment, the only thing that can counter stealth is traps." Silvermoon said.
"Traps …" Reflection Years muttered. "This isn't very reliable either. If we don't know the enemy's route, it's useless …"
"Let's try it as a last resort for now! Isn't there such a group this time? "Unsworn Sword said.
Reflection Years nodded and sent a message to his team, calling for the leader of the "Great Hunt", Sakurazuka Tsubasa to come over. Sakurazuka Tsubasa quickly rushed over and greeted everyone.
As soon as Silvermoon saw this person, he recognized him as the guy who was hanging out with Boundless Mang. He thought that he probably wouldn't be nice to him, so he didn't ask for trouble and consciously dodged to the side. As expected, when Sakurazuka Tsubasa saw Silvermoon, he looked down on him. After being chased for a whole day the day before yesterday, they had to understand the whole story. Silvermoon's role as a scumbag in this story could not be explained from any angle.
"What's the matter?" Sakurazuka Tsubasa asked Unsworn Sword.
Reflection Years quickly explained, then asked, "Most of your group are lurkers, right?"
Sakurazuka Tsubasa sighed regretfully. "Originally, but a few days ago, 22 of them died in Moonlit Night City, so they're no longer."
"That's true!" Reflection Years was in a trance. When they left Moonlit Night City, the mercenary groups compared their losses in Moonlit Night City. He heard that Sakurazuka Tsubasa boasted that they fought against the Ten Guild Alliance and sacrificed 22 people. At that time, everyone thought he was bragging, but now they knew it was true.
Sakurazuka Tsubasa's face was full of grievance. "What do you think?"
"Less is less! There should be some lurkers in the other groups and our guild, right? Let's gather them together first. Brother Tsubasa, take command. " Unsworn Sword said, then turned his head to the side and added, "What do you think, Brother Silvermoon?"
You bastard!!! Silvermoon thought. At this moment, he really wanted to cry, but no tears came out. However, he also knew that Unsworn Sword's words and actions were not beyond reproach. After all, this was Silvermoon's idea. Asking for Unsworn Sword's opinion before coming up with the plan was also a sign of Unsworn Sword's respect and respect for him.
As expected, when Sakurazuka Tsubasa heard that this plan included Silvermoon's shares, he was very unhappy. It was as if he was sent by Silvermoon to work for him. This was too embarrassing. Thinking of this, Sakurazuka Tsubasa suddenly clutched his stomach. "Aiya, my stomach hurts. Not good, not good. I'm going to leave first. You guys organize yourselves!"
"Aiya!!" Just as Shadow Time called out, was Sakurazuka Tsubasa's 500 + movement speed fake? He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What's going on?" Shadow Time looked at Unsworn Sword in confusion.
"I don't know!" Unsworn Sword was also at a loss. They weren't stupid. Of course, they wouldn't believe the stomach ache. It was obviously an excuse.
Who asked you to say such a cheap thing … Silvermoon thought to himself.
"Without them, we really can't gather up the lurkers!" Shadow Time was depressed. Lurkers were not a popular and obscure class, and very few people changed it. Reigning the World's signature skill was Arrow Formation, so they encouraged the guild's Archers to become Marksmen. As for those who didn't know how to set traps, they could wait until the guild leveled up. So currently, they didn't have any talents in this area. Sakurazuka Tsubasa's sudden departure immediately ruined their plan.
"If we can't do it, let's find Thousand Miles Drunk!" Feng Xing said.
Unsworn Sword and Shadow Time clenched their teeth. Silvermoon also casually said, "Thousand Miles Drunk, this person isn't too reliable, is he?"
Although he seemed very casual, Silvermoon was actually very nervous. He had been busy for half a day not for some Reigning the World quest, but for his own safety. He wanted to find out if there were any scouts from Yun Zhongmu or Lan Yi. If there were, he would borrow Reigning the World's hand to deal with them. If he let Thousand Miles Drunk go, wouldn't he quickly be in cahoots with the other side? When he returned, he would definitely tell Unsworn Sword, "It's fine, it's fine. Go on, go on."
"That person is indeed very shameless, despicable, and cunning." Shadow Time said. Silvermoon was very happy to hear this.
"But his skills are indeed terrifying!" Feng Xing said. Silvermoon wasn't happy to hear this, but she couldn't help but be convinced.
"Leaving this matter to him will definitely not be a problem." Unsworn Sword said. Silvermoon's face was ashen.
"But the problem is that it's too expensive." Unsworn Sword continued. A trace of life appeared on Silvermoon's face again.
"What the hell is this Sakurazuka doing?" Shadow Time mumbled, and called out twice in the channel, but no one answered. Silvermoon didn't dare to make a sound.
"I'll go find him!" Shadow Time wanted to go talk to Sakurazuka Tsubasa. Silvermoon was happy again.
"Forget it." Unsworn Sword said, "From the looks of it, he probably wants to use this opportunity to ask for a high price. Since he's going to pay, why not let the more reliable and effective Thousand Miles Drunk come! "Silvermoon really wanted to strangle Unsworn Sword to death.
Shadow Time was also very unhappy, but he also admitted that Unsworn Sword's words were reasonable. Since Sakurazuka Tsubasa also wanted to extort money, why not find Thousand Miles Drunk?
"Let's call him!" Unsworn Sword sighed, and couldn't help but think of Young Master Han. He subconsciously touched his money bag.
This time, Silvermoon took the initiative to stand in a conspicuous position. He hoped that when Thousand Miles Drunk saw him, he would be like Sakurazuka Tsubasa, despise his idea, and leave.
Gu Fei came. Silvermoon didn't wait for Unsworn Sword to say something, and took the initiative to help him, secretly ordering Gu Fei around. Unfortunately, he underestimated Gu Fei's professionalism. Gu Fei didn't say a word, and quietly listened to their plan. He nodded and said, "Okay, got it. You guys continue on your way. "
"Please." Unsworn Sword patted Gu Fei's shoulder.
Gu Fei nodded, then pointed at Silvermoon and said, "Be careful."
Silvermoon's entire body froze. The surrounding players looked at him as if they were looking at a dead man.
