"My EXP is never enough. However, this is all I can do for now. If I continue to level up, I won't have enough EXP even if I fall back to Level 0." Sigh … "Shi Feng smiled bitterly as he looked at his own level.
Level 21.
This was even lower than his level before he returned to White River City. However, his current combat power was much higher than when he was Level 34.
Meanwhile, Turtledove and Jian Ying, who stood beside Shifeng, were dumbfounded.
A Level 34 player had fallen to Level 21 in a short moment. Turtledove and Jian Ying even wondered if their eyes were playing tricks on them. How could a player drop levels by themselves? Although they wanted to ask Shifeng, they were too embarrassed to do so. After all, they had not joined Ling Yi yet. How could they possibly know the secrets of a Guild Leader?
Although Shifeng noticed their doubts, he did not explain himself. After all, this was his secret. If he revealed the Seven Luminaries Ring in the future, it would be irresponsible to himself.
At this moment, Shifeng received a system notification.
System: Guild Crusade Quest completed. Guild Popularity increased by 30,000 points.
System: Congratulations! Guild Crusade Quest completed. Rewarding 70 White River City Reputation and 5,000,000 EXP.
Immediately, Shifeng recovered to Level 22.
"Guild Leader, we've obtained all the treasures in Creek Town. Everyone's Reputation is above 100, reaching the standard of nobles. Even if we enter the town with a Red Name, we won't be killed by the city guards. We can all return to the city to complete our class-change quests," Shiuse Qiangwei suddenly reported through the team chat.
"Good. Return immediately. Also, gather all Ling Yi's members and head to the Teleportation Hall immediately," Shifeng smiled faintly as he looked at the stalemate on the battlefield.
Today was destined to be an extraordinary night. It was also the night that Ling Yi would rise to prominence.
"I understand. We'll hurry back immediately." Shiuse Qiangwei disconnected the call without hesitation. After all, she already trusted Shifeng's performance.
After the call ended, Shifeng continued to stand quietly on the tall building, watching the increasingly intense battle below.
In less than an hour, the number of players on the battlefield had also fallen from the initial 500,000 to several tens of thousands. The intensity of the battle was far beyond anyone's imagination.
As long as someone dared to approach the drop point. No matter who it was, the others would kill them immediately.
Even if hundreds of players from a Guild were to charge in, the result would still be the same.
In the end, it evolved into a situation where if both sides were not killed, there would be no way to pick up the loot.
However, as the number of players decreased. The advantages of guilds were also gradually revealed. Of the remaining tens of thousands of players, the majority were guild players. There were fewer and fewer independent players. Some people saw that they no longer had a chance. He had no choice but to withdraw from the battle.
Without the distraction of the independent players, the various large Guilds began to take action, one after another, rushing towards the locations where the items had dropped.
However, how could the various large Guilds be willing to let other Guilds obtain the loot? Hence, a portion of the Guilds tried to stop the other Guilds, while the rest tried to snatch the loot.
This caused the guilds to start fighting each other.
"These drops all belong to Dark Star. Do you think a small Guild like yours is qualified to compete with us?" Lone Tyrant swung his shield, sending a Swordsman from a small Guild flying. He then shouted, "Assassins, attack! Everyone else, cover them and pick up the loot!"
Immediately, dozens of Assassins rushed over as quickly as they could. The others began to provide cover along the way, opening a path for the Assassins.
"You want to take it? Have you asked for my permission?" Red Feather led his subordinates in a frenzy as they approached the drop point.
At the same time, Emperor's Light, the Assassin's Alliance, and World Dominators were also frantically competing for the loot.
Although these powerful Guilds were powerful, the small Guilds were not fools. The powerful Guilds would mainly fight over the locations with the most loot. Unrated Guilds like these immediately gave up on the loot and went to the locations with the least loot. That way, nobody would fight over the loot.
Seeing the various large Guilds obtain one drop after another, the independent players felt incomparably envious.
However, the expressions of the various large Guilds that obtained the loot did not look too good.
Originally, they had gone through untold hardships, disregarding casualties. It was all to ensure that they could obtain the dropped items. As long as they kept the items in their bags, the items would not drop. Even if they were killed, it would be useless.
However, now that they had obtained the loot … However, what they saw was far beyond their expectations.
Any player that obtained the dropped items had to hold them for two hours to prevent them from dropping when they were killed …
"Just what is going on here?" Lone Tyrant frowned as he looked at the dropped items in his bag.
For the sake of obtaining the dropped items, they had fought with everything they had. They had not held back at all, even sacrificing their companions. It was precisely because they knew that they could obtain the dropped items that they had been willing to pay such a high price. At this moment, of the tens of thousands of players Dark Star had sent, less than a thousand remained. Yet, now, they were telling him that this was not the end. The dropped items could be taken by others at any time.
At this moment, in the battlefield of White River City, anyone who obtained a dropped item felt the urge to vomit blood.
Due to this change, the rules of the competition changed once more.
The various large Guilds immediately began to transfer their own members away. At the same time, they also dispatched more members to kill those who had picked up the loot. Suddenly, the battlefield became even more chaotic.
In this battle, the more members a Guild had, the greater their advantage would be. Meanwhile, Dark Star had the most members remaining. Without a doubt, they had snatched the most loot.
Including the items they already had, they had obtained a total of 24 items. One could say that aside from Shifeng, Dark Star had obtained the most loot.
Just as Lone Tyrant was about to personally lead the team and escort these players into White River City's safe zone …
Suddenly, a black figure appeared before Lone Tyrant, blocking his path.
"Hei Yan, should I say that you have guts? Or are you a fool? After escaping with great difficulty, you actually dared to appear before me instead of hiding with the loot. Today, I'll personally kill you. Meanwhile, all the loot on your body will belong to my Dark Star. "
Lone Tyrant immediately recognized Shifeng's appearance. Sneering, he waved his hand, and over a hundred melee classes charged forward. Meanwhile, the mages at the rear started casting their spells, while the healers retreated from their positions. Clearly, this was to prevent the Shifeng from using large-scale AOE Spells and Silencing Spells.
"President Hei Yan, don't you feel helpless after seeing this formation? This time, you're dead for sure. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for revealing too much in front of me," Lone Tyrant said complacently.
Shifeng smiled faintly when he saw this formation.
If this were before he had upgraded the Seven Luminaries Ring, this formation would indeed give him a headache. With several hundred players spread out, the coverage of Firestorm and Absolute Time was simply insufficient. Without Silencing Spells, if the battle dragged on, even Shifeng would suffer a grievance. At that time, the only thing he could do was run for his life.
However, things were different now.
Seeing over a hundred Level 16 and Level 17 melee classes charging at him from all directions, Shifeng activated the Aura of Time and cast Absolute Time. The Absolute Time covered an area of 75 yards, instantly enveloping over half of the scattered Dark Star players. Those that were not covered by the Aura of Time posed no threat to Shifeng.
Following which, Shifeng switched the Aura of Time to the Aura of Fire, increasing the damage he dealt by 40% and reducing the target's Defense by 40%.
However, this was not the end of it. Shifeng then activated the Purgatory's Shadow's Purgatory Power, increasing his Attack Speed by 100% and damage by 30% for 15 seconds. He then used Windwalk, taking a step forward and dashing forward.
Facing the first Level 17 Shield Warrior to charge at him, Shifeng lightly swung the Abyssal Blade. The silvery-gray Abyssal Blade immediately transformed into a streak of silver light, instantly landing on the Shield Warrior's body. The Shield Warrior did not even have the time to raise his shield to block the attack. The attack left a faint gash on the Shield Warrior's chest. Everything happened so naturally.
A critical damage of -3,216 appeared above the Shield Warrior's head.
Immediately after, this Level 17 Shield Warrior, who had over 2,600 HP, died.
Meanwhile, before this Shield Warrior fell to the ground, Shifeng had already arrived before a Berserker. Similarly, he swung his greatsword at the Shield Warrior. He did not use a second attack, leaving behind an afterimage as he dashed towards another Swordsman.
However, from an outsider's point of view, all they saw was a black shadow pass by a Dark Star member. Then, for some unknown reason, that Dark Star member suddenly collapsed to the ground, his HP reaching zero.
Meanwhile, this black shadow's speed was astonishing. In less than six seconds, it had swept past all of the Dark Star members charging at it.
By the time this black shadow stopped, the hundreds of Dark Star members had all turned into ice-cold corpses, leaving behind only a deathly silence and a pile of weapons and equipment.
The many players watching the show from afar were incomparably shocked when they saw this scene.
This was simply too frightening!
Killing a person with every ten steps, leaving no trace for a thousand miles. When the matter is done, leave with a flick of your sleeves. Hiding your identity and reputation. Only this poem could describe the shock in everyone's hearts at this moment.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" Lone Tyrant stared at the hundreds of Dark Star elite members before him in disbelief. Meanwhile, before he could understand what had happened, all of these people had died. At this moment, the word 'fear' could no longer be used to describe this situation.
"What do you think?" Shifeng smiled faintly as he shifted his gaze towards Lone Tyrant.
Seeing Shifeng's mocking smile, Lone Tyrant's heart palpitated. He did not even have any thoughts of resisting. For a moment, he even suspected that the person before him was not Hei Yan, but the Evil Rakshasa of God's Domain. Otherwise, how could he explain this unbelievable scene? How could players possibly accomplish such a feat?
At this moment, Lone Tyrant's mind was in a mess. The only thought in his mind right now was to escape.
Against such an Evil Rakshasa, even if he had ten lives, it would not be enough.
However, just as Lone Tyrant turned around, he discovered that Shifeng had already appeared before him. Following which, the Abyssal Blade in Shifeng's hand released a dazzling light as bright as the sun. Just the heat radiating from the Abyssal Blade was enough to melt Lone Tyrant's body.
This move was none other than Shifeng's Level 9 Skill, Flame Burst.
