Bernard, the Lord of the East Sea Castle, not only had his home been attacked, but he had also forcefully flattened a castle full of vampires.
That battle, which could be said to be a one-sided sweep, attracted a lot of spectators.
Among them were the Knights and Priests of the Temple of Light.
The Magic Sanctuary, the Palace of Darkness, and the Mercenary Guild were also secretly observing.
Bernard was a vampire, so he could not be completely trusted. Hence, it was not as easy for him as William. Even though he was very powerful, many top forces had planted spies in his territory!
Hence, this incident made him lose a lot of his reputation.
But after the night in the castle ended, the 'inside story' of a civil war in the East Sea Metropolis spread …
A war started by outsiders had forcefully turned it into a civil war between the East Sea Metropolis' subordinates. However, this didn't make the commoners too nervous, and it didn't diminish Lord Bernard's prestige.
It had to be said that Bernard had played a good hand.
But he was not the king. He could only fool the ignorant commoners.
William did not have the time to deal with him. It was not the time to fight to the death. Even if there was a war, William wanted to reduce the scale of the battle. He did not want to lead a legion!
At this moment, he had quietly left with Diablo and the others.
[Prompt: You have completed the mission 'Diablo's Family History']
[Prompt: You have completed the S level mission.]
[Prompt: Diablo swears loyalty to you and will never betray you]
[Prompt: Diablo's affinity for you has increased by 1000 points. His loyalty has increased by 1000 points.]
[Prompt: East Sea Metropolis's affinity for you has decreased by 1000 points.]
[Prompt: Bernard's affinity for you has decreased by 20,000 points.]
This was the original reward of an A + level mission!
Now, it was the reward of an S level mission.
This did not include the 200,000 gold coins, 500,000 silver coins, and hundreds of pieces of equipment of different qualities.
The reward did not seem large, but to the players, they had struck it rich!
Because the difficulty and reward of the mission were determined by William's level.
If a player obtained the loyalty of a Legendary NPC, would he think that the reward of the mission was not high enough?
A Legendary NPC's follower was enough to turn an ordinary player into a top-notch expert.
No matter how many players died, as long as their Legendary NPC did not die, they would be like a thousand-pound bull or a three-thousand-pound BOSS.
It was just that William's endowment made it much easier for him to gain the loyalty of NPCs. That was why the rewards were not that great.
Otherwise, whether it was players or NPCs, how could they so easily subjugate some genius NPCs as their subordinates?
That was impossible!
William no longer said that his' endowment 'was trash.
This was not something that could be described as the blessing of the Goddess of Luck. It was more like the Goddess of Luck wanted to marry him!
There were god-tier talents, right?
Apart from the issue of talent.
Moreover, the mission issued by the "Gods" mainframe had always treated William as a player …
Some of the A + and S-rank missions weren't too difficult for him. However, players of the same rank would definitely not receive the same treatment in Eastsea City.
Not to mention whether the Temple of Light would respond to a player's request for help.
Not to mention whether the players' Verbal Cannon was effective or not.
William's legendary level in the continent was not something that ordinary people could achieve.
Since the six of them had left the City of Dawn, they couldn't just wander around for a few days before returning home. They had to go to Emerald Grand Duchy.
William had just received a piece of news from the Mercenary Guild.
In the depths of a dense forest between Emerald Grand Duchy and Lan Yu Grand Duchy, a 'Blood Fruit' was about to ripen within the next ten days.
A 'Blood Fruit' could bear up to nine fruits.
The 'Blood Fruit' with the highest quality could even increase the potential of the Legendary bloodline.
This was something that William had to obtain.
Not only could this fruit increase the potential of the bloodline, but it also had a sweet and sour taste …
For example, when William reached level 100, all his attributes would increase by 100%. From then on, if there were no major changes, no matter how high his level was, the increase would always be 100%.
Of course, William didn't know if becoming a sage or a God would change …
But if he obtained the 'Blood Fruit', he could increase the upper limit of the 'percentage'!
Even if it was just a '1%' increase, it would be a huge bonus in the later stages. It was worth the risk for William. He wasn't going to take the risk just for the sweet and sour taste.
"The Blood Fruit! Emerald Grand Duchy has such a good item?" Violent Dragon and the others were pleasantly surprised. NPCs couldn't differentiate the level of the bloodline, but the Blood Fruit could increase a person's potential. Any aspiring professional would not let go of this opportunity.
Burned Cinder curled his lips in disdain. "It's just a Blood Fruit. I don't even want to eat it!"
"Hehe." Alec laughed.
"Hehe." Wales laughed.
"Hehe." Diablo laughed.
William glanced at Burned Cinder. He knew that Burned Cinder was powerful, but he didn't know how strong he was. There were so many people here. Who could William defeat in a one-on-one fight?
I'll forget about killing you once.
Wales was an earth element shield warrior. If he stood there and let William hack at him, could William even move?
Even William couldn't hack at him!
Diablo was weaker in a one-on-one fight. But after he became an Advanced, William couldn't understand what had happened. William didn't dare to underestimate Diablo's one-on-one fighting ability.
Even if William and the others could withstand the Metal Storm, they would probably be disfigured. Perhaps only muscular giants like Wales and Violent Dragon would be able to survive in one piece.
Oh!
Alec couldn't defeat William, but he could run away.
Violent Dragon had thick skin and flesh, so he couldn't be treated as an ordinary epic creature.
It was simple!
Each of the six people present was a super professional with unlimited potential, and each of them was a super professional who could dominate an area.
Burned Cinder seemed to notice the gazes of the onlookers. He said again!
"Of course, I won't eat it. But whatever I snatch, I'll give to Lord William."
As soon as he said that, everyone was instantly rendered speechless.
What a bootlicker!
Only William knew how to bark, right?
Even if William didn't eat it, wouldn't they want to eat it?
Since Lord William was so powerful, how could he eat it? It would be great if Lord William could lick the core of the fruit.
Fortunately, everyone only imagined it, and no one said it out loud.
The corners of William's mouth twitched. He wanted to tell Burned Cinder that being a bootlicker wouldn't make him stronger. Only by spending money could he become stronger!
He clamped his legs tightly and whipped his horse. Drenched in the heavy rain, he led the way to Emerald Grand Duchy.
He didn't know who had spread the news of the 'Blood Fruit', but it would definitely attract a group of powerful fellows.
At that time, it might even lead to a tragic battle.
He had to be prepared!
If it was necessary, he could send a few legions to destroy them!
Cough, cough, cough.
It was just a thought.
Actually, not many people would do that.
Because the NPCs in the world of [Gods], as long as they were powerful professionals, most of them had a certain background.
Unless there was a power war, they would send out their armies to resolve it.
In other cases, the impact of the battle would be minimized.
Things were different now. William could no longer lead hundreds of Elves as assassins without any scruples …
The situation was very different.
If William sent out a few legions, he could provoke most of the forces in the southern region.
Moreover, the current situation could be seen as a 'treasure snatching battle' in the Xianxia world.
That was right.
If there were no players in this world, it would be a very normal magical fantasy world!
But regardless of whether it was a magical fantasy world or a fantasy world, it couldn't escape from the various stages of treasure snatching, exploration, and adventure.
It was just that the players rarely participated in it.
Because most of the players couldn't compete with the NPCs.
Unless it was a place like Stormy Island, which was discovered by the players first, but there were no NPCs. Only then would the players be able to obtain a large number of treasures and sell them to the NPCs at a high price. Then, it would lead to all sorts of killings and robberies.
Oh.
The players were usually the ones who were killed …
Three days later.
A group of six entered Emerald Grand Duchy, which was also controlled by vampires.
