There was no doubt that the boss's gaming skills weren't that great. The strength increased by the equipment was enough to deal with some noobs and give him the upper hand in a one-on-one fight with some experts. However, it was impossible for him to kill tens of thousands of people single-handedly like A Thousand Miles Drunk and exhaust them mentally. However, Matchless Wonder dared to challenge him so confidently. Five Nights began to suspect that the boss was actually supporting a hidden force. This group of people probably mainly focused on combat.
Five Nights and the others mainly worked in the game and didn't have much time for entertainment. However, Matchless Wonder was different. His studio was on the right track, and he only needed to deal with some matters regularly. He had more free time. However, even though he had more free time, the boss of a successful studio wouldn't wholeheartedly use the game for entertainment. He didn't have much time to play the game every day.
Even so, Matchless Wonder's level wasn't low. Logically speaking, a player who only played the game for two to three hours a day shouldn't be able to reach level 42. However, Matchless Wonder was just like that. Although most people attributed this to Matchless Wonder's excellent equipment, there were many people in the game who had good equipment. It wasn't that Matchless Wonder and the others didn't doubt that equipment alone could achieve this. However, after all, these things had nothing to do with their work. Therefore, everyone just casually chatted. In fact, mocking the boss's gaming skills was what they did most of the time. Gossiping about the boss together was an activity that all the workers loved to see.
At this moment, when Five Nights saw the boss so confidently saying that he was going to fight against the Ten Guilds Alliance, he suddenly had such a thought: there were people behind the boss. The reason why the boss could level up so efficiently was probably because there was such a group of experts leading him. Five Nights and the others didn't know about this group of people. At this moment, it seemed that the boss was going to use this group of people.
Since the boss had never mentioned these people to them, Five Nights, of course, didn't ask too much. At this moment, Matchless Wonder sent him to do something else, so Five Nights could only leave with a stomach full of curiosity.
In Moonlit Night City, although Matchless Wonder and Five Nights' teleportation scroll made Cloud Twilight and the others feel regretful, this battle was still considered a complete victory for the Ten Guilds Alliance. The big boss of the studio was beaten to such a sorry state by them, which was quite exciting. Everyone in the guild was cheering and wanted to celebrate. As for the celebration, it was nothing more than drinking.
Yunzhong Murli invited Gu Fei over. Of course, Gu Fei wasn't interested in drinking and partying. However, Yun Zhongmu was very kind to them this time, so Gu Fei didn't want to embarrass him too much. Thus, he went to the tavern and showed his face, letting the heroes of the Ten Meetings Alliance see the true face of the number one assassin. After casually chatting with Yun Zhongmu and the other familiar faces, Gu Fei continued to play his Wanted Mission with the excuse of completing a mission.
The celebration of the Ten Societies Alliance was in full swing. One tavern could not hold all of them, so they drank from the tavern to the street, and from the street to the square. Many players from guilds that were on good terms with the Ten Guilds Alliance also came to join in the fun. Previously, the city was filled with PvP battles, but in the blink of an eye, it was like a celebration. The players of Moonlit City were just that straightforward.
As the boss of the guild, Yunzhong Murli was naturally the target of everyone's drinking. Getting drunk in the game didn't harm the body anyway, so it was quite realistic to simulate the state of being drunk. Yunzhong Murli's alcohol tolerance was average. After a few rounds, he couldn't hold on anymore. He drank until he was seeing stars, but there was still an endless stream of people who wanted to continue drinking him. Yunzhong Murli relied on his speed as a Thief, so he used Swift Steps and began to run.
After getting drunk, Yun Zhong Mu's feet were unsteady. Yun Zhong Mu's swaying footsteps drew a string of roars of laughter. Yun Zhong Mu didn't know either. He ran all the way to an empty alleyway. When he saw that no one was chasing him, he took a deep breath.
These bastards are messing with me. I can't hang around with them anymore … Yunzhong Murli felt his head become heavy. Getting drunk in the game was also very uncomfortable. I wonder if I'll be fine when I go offline and log back in? Yunzhong Murli thought about going to the revival point to try. However, when he turned around, he saw two masked Assassins standing at the entrance of the alley, looking at him.
"Is this the boss of the Ten Guilds Alliance, Yunzhong Murli?" asked the masked Assassin.
"It's me. Who are you guys? "Yunzhong Murli replied indifferently. At this moment, his brain wasn't working very well.
"Our boss told us to send you his regards," said the masked Assassin.
When Yunzhong Murli heard this, he faintly felt that something wasn't right. He sobered up a bit and said in a daze: "Who's your boss?"
"Unrivalled Genius." After saying this, the two masked Assassins suddenly moved, both using Swift Steps. Yunzhong Murli was also a Thief turned Assassin, so he naturally saw that these two were extremely skilled. They split up and launched a pincer attack at him from both sides.
Yunzhong Murli wasn't an easy character to deal with, but in his drunk state, he couldn't even walk steadily. He wanted to move forward, but his legs swayed and he directly fell in front of the other party's sword. This Assassin was quite ferocious. The flying dagger slashed towards Yunzhong Murli's neck. Yunzhong Murli didn't have time to react. He only felt his health drop by a large chunk. This Assassin's attack power wasn't low.
Attack power was naturally a reflection of equipment. The guy in front of him had good equipment and outstanding skills. One of these characters was already very difficult to deal with, let alone two. What's more, Yunzhong Murli couldn't even stand steadily. His dodging and counterattacking were all a mess. He knew that he was in trouble, but he was powerless. In the end, he transformed into a ball of white light.
After dying and reviving, Yunzhong Murli's drunken state was completely cleared. However, this method of sobering up was a bit too extravagant. Yunzhong Murli was naturally furious. He didn't even know who this Unrivalled Genius was, yet he was mysteriously killed once.
After Yunzhong Murli announced in the guild chat that he had been ambushed, he was unexpectedly met with a wave of laughter. Everyone laughed at Yunzhong Murli's drunken joke. They said that it was very boring and that he had no brains. Yunzhong Murli didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He solemnly repeated it a few times, but the guild members were all in a half-drunk, half-sober state. They didn't believe him no matter what. Afterwards, there was finally a sober and attentive person. He discovered that Yunzhong Murli's level had indeed dropped by one. Only then did everyone believe him. They began to ask who did it.
"Unrivalled Genius? Who is this? "After asking, everyone was at a loss. The players didn't know what the ID of the boss of Image Workshop was. The reason why they were able to ambush Unrivalled Genius was because they had obtained the information from others.
Even though they didn't know who Unrivalled Genius was, Yunzhong Murli knew who the most vicious person his guild had offended was. With his clear-headed mind, he quickly realized that this might be the punishment that Ink Studio was trying to use force against him.
Yunzhong Murli looked down on the people from the Image Workshop. Those people only knew how to amass money. Did they understand the joy of the game? Those two Assassins seemed to have good skills and equipment. They were most likely fugitives hired by Image Workshop. If they wanted to use such a method to scare him, they were looking down on him too much.
Yunzhong Murli was very heroic. He guessed that since the other party wanted to take revenge on him, there might be people lying in ambush outside the Thief Union. Yunzhong Murli didn't dodge. He directly stepped out of the revival point and cursed, "Where's the grandson that wants to ambush me? Get the hell out here!"
"Behind you." Yunzhong Murli only heard an eerie voice from behind him. Following that, someone pushed him. Yunzhong Murli fell forward and immediately took a few steps away from the revival point. The experienced Yunzhong Murli didn't immediately turn around to look. Instead, he immediately began to dodge. He rolled on the ground, only to see flames, arrows, swords, and everything else flying towards him. None of them seemed weak. Yunzhong Murli dodged in time, but he was still injured. Just by looking at this wave of attacks, he could tell that the other party's coordination was very good. It was clear that they were often together. He didn't know where this assassin team that Image Workshop had hired, but they were actually quite difficult to deal with.
Just as Yunzhong Murli was thinking, the other party's second wave of attacks arrived. A few Mages blasted out AoE spells. They didn't directly attack Yunzhong Murli, but rather restricted his movements. Taking advantage of the gaps between the spells, the other party's melee professions rushed in. In the blink of an eye, Yunzhong Murli was completely surrounded.
"They're not ordinary experts … …" Yunzhong Murli was shocked. This coordination was very experienced. Their control over their skills was also very high. Their combat experience was also incomparably rich. Even the battle-hardened Yunzhong Murli couldn't dodge. In the blink of an eye, he died again.
Yunzhong Murli, who had died a second time, was surprisingly calm. The opponents weren't simple. They were decisive and killed in one hit. Yunzhong Murli quietly thought about the first time he died. If he hadn't been drunk at the time, would he have been able to stop those two Assassins from attacking him? Of those two people, either one of them was no weaker than him. If the two of them worked together … … Yunzhong Murli felt that he definitely wouldn't be able to defeat them. Whether he could escape or not would depend on whose equipment and movement speed was faster.
Yunzhong Murli hurriedly rushed to the revival point's entrance. This time, he didn't dare to casually step out. Those assassins weren't in a hurry to leave either. They didn't even wear masks. They calmly revealed their true faces. Seeing Yunzhong Murli rush to the entrance, one of the other party's members smiled. "You better be careful. We haven't finished greeting you yet!" After saying this, he actually led the others away. He completely ignored Yunzhong Murli's roar of "Who are you?"
Yunzhong Murli felt wronged! He wanted to rush out and fight to the death with this group of people, but he knew that he was alone. There was no way he could be a match for such a well-coordinated team. Yunzhong Murli counted the number of people on the other side. There were nine people who had surrounded him. Four Mages, two Assassins, one Grandmaster of Combat, one Warrior, and one Knight. This was clearly an irregular team with extremely high attack power. They didn't even bring a Cleric, which was a necessity for a team. This made Yunzhong Murli even more furious. This meant that the other side had complete confidence in Yunzhong Murli. They believed that they wouldn't suffer any damage. Of course, there was no need for them to bring a Cleric. At this time, they seemed to know that Yunzhong Murli wouldn't rush out of the revival point rashly. They might as well just leave.
But when would this group of people show up again? Of course, Yunzhong Murli didn't know. He suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He realized that he was already prey. What should he do in the future? Of course, he wouldn't be able to withstand this group's sneak attack alone. Bring a team? The other side had already formed a team. Even if he formed a small team, with the same number of people, Yunzhong Murli felt that it would still be difficult. Would he have to go out with dozens of people in the future? How could that be possible!
Yunzhong Murli stayed in the revival point in pain until many of his brothers from the Ten Guilds Alliance rushed over. Yunzhong Murli had already lost two levels. He had suffered heavy losses. A group of people had already started cursing on Yunzhong Murli's behalf. However, Yunzhong Murli's expression was solemn. He didn't know anything about this group of people. He didn't know how to deal with them. Today, they had ambushed him. What about tomorrow? Would they attack the other members of the Ten Guilds Alliance? If the other side had the patience to keep grinding, it would be very scary.
Outside Moonlit Night City, Matchless Genius was casually killing monsters to level up. A group of people came from the direction of the main city and finally arrived in front of Matchless Genius. The group included the two Assassins who had killed Yunzhong Murli and the nine people who had been waiting outside the revival point. However, there were a total of 24 people.
"You're here." Matchless Genius saw the group and said while killing monsters.
"Yes!" The one who replied to Matchless Genius was a Knight. As he replied, he gestured to the other players. The group immediately spread out and hunted monsters. However, every time a monster had one hit left, they would lure it to Matchless Genius. Matchless Genius was very used to killing these monsters one by one.
Five Nights' guess was basically correct. Matchless Genius really did have a group of people who played the game with him. He was also a money warrior, but he was different from Slender Waist Dance. Slender Waist Dance was an extremely personal hero. She spent all of her money on equipping herself. Her desire for the game was the same as most normal players. She wanted to become a super invincible tyrant who could destroy a main city with a single stretch of her back and a stomp of her foot. She wanted to be a super invincible tyrant who could destroy a main city.
Matchless Genius, on the other hand, had a group of people who served him. When he was leveling up, they would bring the monsters that were on the verge of death to him so that he could efficiently gain experience. When he was doing quests, there would be people who would scout ahead for him and choose the most valuable quests. His subordinates would also arrange everything for him to do along the way. It was through this method that Matchless Hero could level up at such an extraordinary speed. His own gaming skills, however, were not that great.
However, Matchless Genius didn't care about this. Whenever he caused trouble in the game, he would naturally send his subordinates to clean up the mess. This was their job. Matchless Genius provided them with a place to play the game and gave them a monthly salary. Their job was to serve Matchless Genius in the game.
Five Nights and the others were earning money for Matchless Genius. These people could be considered as Matchless Genius's customers. In return, they mainly rewarded Matchless Genius with spiritual enjoyment. In fact, these people were also famous. If Cloud Twilight knew their IDs, he would realize that they were all at the top of the level leaderboards. This was also a genuine elite group. In the game's southeast region, it was easy to find out their mercenary group name: Eagle Group.
"On the way here, we killed Cloud Twilight twice." While commanding the others to help the boss lure monsters, the Knight reported to Matchless Genius.
"Good job, Everlasting." Matchless Genius said.
If Cloud Twilight heard this name, even if he didn't know who he was, he would definitely know. The parallel world's number one Knight, Everlasting. After the city war, even the Five Roaches on the level leaderboards were reshuffled. However, Everlasting's position didn't waver. He was just like his ID. Ever since he became number one on the Knight leaderboards, he never gave other Knights a chance. Of course, to the players in Cloud Cloud City and Moonlit Night City, these were all unfamiliar experts. In addition, the most terrifying expert in the game, Thousand Miles Drunk, was active in their area. In front of him, the brilliance of any expert would seem insignificant.
Everlasting only smiled at the boss's praise and continued to ask, "Are there any other targets?"
"For now, let's choose Cloud Twilight as our main target!" Matchless Genius said.
"How many should we kill?"
"The lower the better." Matchless Genius said.
"Understood." Everlasting wasn't surprised. This wasn't the first time they had killed someone to level 10.
Matchless Hero looked at the players who had spread out to aggro the monsters. "Not everyone's here yet?" he asked after a quick count.
"Yeah, there are six people in the third group who are sleeping right now! I've already told them to clean up and they'll be here soon. "Everlasting said.
Their Eagle Group had a total of 30 people. They were split into three groups, and each group had to play for eight hours a day. The three groups rotated, ensuring that Matchless Genius would have people at his beck and call 24/7. Matchless Genius didn't play for a fixed amount of time every day. Some were long, some were short, and some were absent. The Eagle Group was actually quite free most of the time. However, to them, the game wasn't just a job. It was also their fun. They were different from Five Nights and the other employees. They were more like Southbound Sword's group of seven. However, they were a group of professional players with a fixed boss, while Southbound Sword's group were freelance workers.
"Yeah, killing Cloud Twilight seems pretty easy for you guys. However, you still have to be careful of one person." Matchless Genius said.
"You're talking about Thousand Miles Drunk?" Everlasting asked.
"That's right, it's him. This battle will most likely involve him as well," Matchless Genius said.
"If this person is involved, then there might be other people involved. It feels like a gathering of old friends." Everlasting suddenly laughed.
