Ye Ci was fast, but her opponent was not slow either. Just as Ye Ci's dagger was about to reach him, the man dodged the attack with ease. It was a simple dodge, but it required a great deal of skill. Ye Ci was momentarily stunned by her attempt to evade the attack. Her movements slowed down, and she was caught by the enemy. The enemy twisted her arms behind her back, and bent her over.
The man then lowered his body and leaned against Ye Ci's back. He lowered his head and sighed, "Little Gongzi, you're going to die if you're so distracted."
Ye Ci gritted her teeth. She knew it was Fleeting Time. She struggled with all her might, but to her surprise, Fleeting Time was able to bind her tightly. She took in a deep breath and kicked Fleeting Time in the back with her heel. Fleeting Time grunted in pain, and let go of Ye Ci's arm.
Ye Ci straightened up and smiled at Fleeting Time, "Little Fleeting Time, you're going to die if you're so careless."
Just like Ye Ci, Fleeting Time was also wearing a Cloak of Concealment. His face was concealed by the cloak, but Ye Ci could clearly hear the bitter laughter in his voice, "Say, are you planning to be a widow before you're even married?"
Even someone as thick-skinned as Ye Ci felt uncomfortable. She snorted after a slight pause, "Why don't you just say that you're the one who's looking for me …" But something did not seem right. Why are we talking about marriage? What's wrong with this? She didn't have time to think and immediately changed the topic. "Why are you here?"
"Oh, I'm here to join in the fun." Fleeting Time was not displeased by Ye Ci's sudden change of topic. After all, he had already heard what Ye Ci had said. Even though Ye Ci had blurted it out unconsciously, it meant that his trip was not in vain.
"You came all the way from the Western Continent just to watch us fight against Golden Era?" Ye Ci's lips twitched, "You came all the way from the Western Continent just to watch us fight against Golden Era?"
"I'm also here to check if the elites that we've lent you are doing their job." Fleeting Time bent down and whispered into Ye Ci's ear, "Or do you want to hear that I'm here to see you?"
Ye Ci's lips twitched even more. Fleeting Time was indeed her boyfriend, but Ye Ci still felt that he was asking for a beating. Ye Ci pushed Fleeting Time away and let out a long sigh, "Do you think it's appropriate for us to have a chat in Golden Era's territory? I'm here to ambush you guys. "
"Oh, oh. I see. " Fleeting Time nodded, but there was a hint of relief in his voice. But it only served to make Ye Ci want to knock him out. Fleeting Time grabbed Ye Ci's wrist and dashed into the crowd. "How many Clerics have you killed?" he asked as he ran.
"Who knows?" Ye Ci replied calmly as she stared at her name, "Who knows? It's not a small number."
"I think so too."
"Huh?" Ye Ci raised an eyebrow and gave Fleeting Time a curious look.
Fleeting Time seemed to have sensed Ye Ci's curiosity, "I saw a lot of roaming Rogues on my way here. I don't think Breeze will give up until you're dead."
Ye Ci chuckled, "Why do you sound like you're not worried at all? I'm still your girlfriend."
"I wish I could, but you've never given me the chance to do so." Fleeting Time sighed. Fleeting Time quickly changed the topic, "Let's have a competition. Let's see who can kill the most Clerics in 20 minutes."
"No problem." Ye Ci nodded, and the two split up and dashed in two different directions.
As Ye Ci continued to slay Golden Era's Clerics, she suddenly realized that the way they interacted with each other was a little strange. Maybe they were a couple. But why was it that the way they interacted with each other was completely different from the way they interacted with each other in the movies? When they were together, it was always a competition, always a competition. Neither of them was willing to concede to the other. Ye Ci could not help but wonder if she and Fleeting Time would be able to get along like a normal couple. Like going out to see the scenery, or doing something … Well, she could not imagine what she and Fleeting Time could do apart from fighting. But it was not a bad thing.
Just Ye Ci alone was enough to put Breeze in a difficult position. The addition of Fleeting Time was enough to infuriate Breeze to no end. Of course, he knew that Fleeting Time had joined the fray. But what was the use of knowing that? He couldn't catch these two people. If he couldn't catch them, it would be a waste of words.
Breeze slammed his fist on the tank in front of him and took a deep breath when he heard the report of the Cleric's death. As expected, there was a huge difference between a top player and a high level player. He should have known that Fleeting Time and Fleeting Time would be able to escape unscathed from a dozen assassins. They would be like fish in water in a chaotic battle like this.
Despite his reluctance, Breeze had to admit that none of Golden Era's players were stronger than Gongzi You or Fleeting Time. Up Everyday was nothing compared to Golden Era, but it would not be easy for them to deal with a guild with a high level player. Breeze sighed and began to ponder if his current strategy was right.
He had unknowingly walked into a dead end.
And it was all because of the Mithril ore vein. Although the advantage of Mithril was only in terms of Magic Defense, Breeze knew that Mithril wasn't just limited to making Mithril shirts. The further the game progressed, the higher the requirement for Magic Defense, and the higher the demand for Mithril. What if Mithril could be used to forge weapons? What kind of effect would that have? Breeze could not even begin to imagine it.
If Golden Era wanted to dominate Fate, they would need to increase their numbers and economy. More importantly, they would need the resources to stabilize the situation in the game. The mithril ore vein would be Fate's most important resource for the foreseeable future. Golden Era had already sent out a large number of spies to look for mithril veins on Macia Continent, but so far, aside from the four known mithril veins, no other mithril veins had been found.
Golden Era did not want to make things difficult for Upwards Ho!. Gongzi You was a tough nut to crack, and Upwards Ho!'s equipment was one of the best in the entire Eastern Continent, and they were able to clear dungeons with ease. It was almost as if they had the help of the gods. In this aspect, they were even more powerful than the other large guilds. Their dungeon clearing strategies were hard to come by in the Eastern Continent, and their speed in clearing dungeons was so fast that their equipment was always among the best in the Eastern Continent. If it weren't for their small numbers, they would have been a headache to deal with.
Golden Era was determined to get their hands on Mithril ore veins, but they had only discovered four Mithril ore veins so far. Other than the one in the Southern Continent that was locked down by a quest, the other three were already occupied by other guilds. Although Up Everyday had all sorts of advantages, they were still the weakest guild in the Eastern Continent when compared to Genesis and Stellar Union. Genesis had Fleeting Time, Stellar Union had Toxic, and Up Everyday had Gongzi You. All three guilds had at least one top player. Since each of them was a tough nut to crack, most players would choose to join the weakest guild, which was Up Everyday.
That was why Golden Era had targeted Up Everyday multiple times. It was not because they had a grudge against the guild, but because they were interested in profits.
Breeze suddenly felt that he had made the wrong choice. He had suffered a few losses at the hands of Up Everyday. Had he underestimated this medium sized guild? Perhaps it would be better for him to change his target?
But no matter what Breeze thought, this battle must be fought to the end. He sighed as he looked at the players fighting in the distance. At this rate, it was only a matter of time before Up Everyday fell. They were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. But even if they could hold on until then, how many Clerics would die? How many levels would they lose if they died and lost a level? If the levels of the Clerics were too low, especially the main Clerics of each party, the difficulty of dungeons would increase. If the difficulty of the dungeon increased, their progress would be delayed even further. Wouldn't that increase the gap between them and the major guilds in front of them?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that even if he won in the end, he would still be at a disadvantage in the long run. And Breeze was the kind of person who hated to be at a disadvantage. He took a deep breath and said, "Pass down the order. We're retreating."
Sweeping Reed was taken aback. Although the number of Clerics in the guild was high, Golden Era's victory was in sight. Wouldn't it be a waste to retreat now? "Guild Leader, we're retreating now! Wouldn't that be giving them the victory? "
Breeze glanced at Sweeping Reed before turning to leave. His cloak fluttered in the wind as he spoke in a calm voice, "Winning or losing now is but a small matter. What I want is the final victory."
