The four guild leaders had worried looks on their faces. Courtney was right in front of them. The four of them sent their best players to pester her, but they couldn't find any clues. They didn't know where Qianli went. Out of the four, Unchung Mutsu was the first to want to kill her. He wanted to kill Courtney to see if there were any clues.
"I don't think that's a good idea." Against the Current shook his head. "She's an NPC that has nothing to do with clues. Do you usually kill NPCs in the city just to find out if there's a quest? I think you guys know the consequences of attacking these civilian NPCs, right? "
Attacking an NPC civilian would result in a merciless attack from the system guards, even if it was an accidental injury. In this regard, the system was clearly biased. It only cared about the NPC race and didn't care about the players at all.
"Desperate times call for desperate measures. I don't believe that if we attack her now, the guards will come to her rescue." Unchung Mutsu said.
"I just want you to know that attacking a system NPC for no reason will result in a severe punishment. Right now, there might not be any guards coming to attack, but will they deduct your points? "Against the Current said.
Unchung Mutsu was startled and suddenly laughed. "If they really deduct my points, I don't think you'll stop me, right?"
Against the Current was also startled. In all honesty, at this moment, he didn't have any evil intentions. He was just purely analyzing and thinking that killing Courtney wasn't a good idea. But obviously, his character wasn't like this. At this critical moment, Unchung Mutsu didn't hesitate to analyze him from a dark angle.
"It's not a bad idea to deduct your points. It's best if you die two more times. If you want to kill me, then go ahead and kill me! "Against the Current wasn't in a good mood and didn't argue.
"What about the two of you?" Unchung Mutsu looked at Unsworn Sword and Black Index Finger.
As the two were hesitating, they suddenly received a message in the guild channel. "Guild leader, someone wants to see you."
"Who?" All four asked.
"I don't know, but he said he knows where Qianli and the others are!"
"Ah?" The four of them were startled. They quickly asked for directions and ran together in unison.
The four guild leaders were afraid of dying because of the Honor Kill, so they didn't want to get close to anyone. The players around them were also on guard, not allowing any strangers to get close to them. When this extremely tempting piece of news appeared, the four of them didn't dare to be negligent. They went over to look for people while calling for the defense team.
The newcomer appeared before the four of them. The moment Sworn Sword saw him, he felt a little strange. "You look familiar. I think I've seen you before?"
The newcomer sighed.
"How do you know where the drunk Qianli is?"
"Because I know the follow-up to their mission."
What familiar lines! The four of them were startled. Sword Without Oath immediately remembered. "It's you! Aren't you the guy who's with Hongchen Yixiao? "
The other three also let out an "Oh". They also remembered that Hongchen Yixiao wasn't alone. He had a companion with him.
"Damn, you keep saying this. Do you think we're stupid?" Unchung Mutsu was furious. He suddenly swung his sword.
Water Breaking Arrow turned around and quickly raised his arm. The crossbow in his hand was already aimed at Unchung Mutsu's temple. He didn't attack. Even if he did, it wouldn't be a big deal to a Warrior. However, this action showed his superb PVP skills. He didn't attack, which meant that he didn't have any ill intentions.
"You guys really have some misunderstandings." Broken Arrow said helplessly.
The four guild leaders didn't say anything.
Water Breaking Arrow had already put away his crossbow. "Right now, you guys can't find Qianli at all. You can't disrupt his mission at all. You'll even suspect that I'm a spy sent by Qianli to purposely mislead you? Do you have a direction now? "
Unchung Mutsu was now thinking in reverse. Hearing Water Breaking Arrow's words, he laughed. "If that's the case, then I have more confidence to touch this NPC."
When the other three heard this, they also had a thought. Maybe it was because this NPC had an important plot. Qianli was worried that they would kill him, so he specifically found this guy to trick. This excuse almost made them fall for it again!
"Hongchen Yixiao also told me to remind you guys. Don't ever touch Courtney again. Otherwise, you'll see a completely unbeatable Berserk Boss." Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Hahahaha, then I'll go and see." Unchung Mutsu laughed and immediately gathered the team in the guild channel. They had seen Courtney's combat ability. She was indeed very strong. However, with the strength of a thousand guild, they could still take her down. Now, she didn't have the uncontrollable hatred that she had when she was chasing Qianli.
"Perfect. If you die, at least the other three guild leaders will believe what I said." Water Breaking Arrow said.
The other three were also ready to make a move. Hearing this, they felt that it wasn't a bad thing to continue watching. Unchung Mutsu laughed coldly. He naturally had his own plans. He just wanted to go up and attack. If this NPC was really as unbeatable as this guy said, then he could just retreat. How much loss would he suffer then?
"Team 1, 12 o 'clock, 1 o' clock, 3 o 'clock, 4 o' clock, 5 o 'clock, 6 o' clock, 7 o 'clock, 8 o' clock, 9 o 'clock, and 10 o' clock. Everyone, get to your positions!" Mudo of the Cloud ordered. The Sheepcloud Guild split into ten teams and prepared to attack. After all, Courtney wasn't a professional Wild Boss. She wouldn't actively attack people. She could be considered a passive monster.
"Attack!" Under Unchung Mutsu's command, the Warriors in ten directions surrounded her. A passive monster that wouldn't actively attack was very beneficial for the players to set up their formation.
Five swords, five shields, ten warriors gathered around Courtney almost at the same time.
Attack, instant kill.
Everything happened so quickly and cleanly. There was no hesitation at all. When the ten people attacked, they died.
This wasn't all. In the white light of the ten people, Courtney's arrows were still flying.
Ten arrows, instant kill another ten people.
The players were shocked. Shooting through people was called "penetrating attack" in the game. It was a common attribute on Archers' crossbows. Usually, there was a chance to trigger it. The secondary damage after penetrating was usually greatly reduced.
Courtney's ten arrows all penetrated. Was the damage reduced? No one knew. No one knew what her original damage was. They only knew that when her arrows came out, they were instant kills. Including the five constitution-type heavy Warriors, they were also instant kills.
This attack was indeed much stronger than the last time she had used Burst Run. The players surrounding her didn't dare to move. Instant kill damage was something that the players couldn't deal with at all. Did they rely on sacrifices? If they could revive on the spot, they could try, but here …
The players didn't dare to move, but Courtney didn't stop. She drew her bow and shot again. This time, the players saw clearly that there weren't just ten arrows, and the attack wasn't in a fan shape, but a circle. Courtney turned her body when she shot the arrows, and the arrows shot out in a 360-degree circle.
The arrows were very fast. The players couldn't dodge them at all. Those who were hit were instantly killed. Then, the penetrating attack, another round of death.
The arrows were still shooting. Courtney's face was filled with anger, determination, and sadness. She wouldn't allow anyone to break her protection of Angus.
The expressions of the three guild leaders of Unsworn Sword all changed. Their previous eagerness to try had vanished. They were all ordering the guild players to retreat. Courtney's arrows could kill anyone. There was no immunity to damage in the parallel world. Countless bystanders who died unjustly could testify.
Unchung Mutsu was the one who wanted to run the most. Formation, recovery, cover, they didn't care anymore. There was only one thing in his mind: run.
Run as many as you can.
Tragedy always belonged to the short-legged.
Courtney didn't chase after them. She just shot arrows from where she stood. Not only was her attack high, but her range was also very long. The players didn't know how far they had to run to stop her attacks. They could only run for their lives.
When Courtney stopped, there was no one within a 100-meter radius.
Even the three big guilds were accidentally attacked when they retreated, let alone the Herding Clouds Guild.
Herding Clouds Guild? Almost all the people who escaped were Rogues and Archers. Courtney's attack was 360-degree. She shot 20 arrows at a time, and each arrow killed two people. Ten attacks killed 400 people. The Herding Clouds Guild tried their best to run away. In the end, only 274 people survived, including Unchung Mutsu himself. When Courtney's arrows flew over, he was no different from a level 1 newbie. He died instantly. The Herding Clouds Guild had set the record for the largest guild annihilation in Cloud City.
Unchung Mutsu was filled with regret. He only had two more chances to die. That was why he, who was always at the front in battle, didn't walk at the front for the first time.
He shrunk into the team and prepared to coldly give orders. At the same time, if Courtney was really "unbeatable", he could retreat calmly.
He didn't know Courtney would be this sick. Unchung Mutsu cried.
"Now you three should believe what I said, right?" Water Breaking Arrow said to Unsworn Sword and the other two.
The three of them looked at each other.
"Is it really a misunderstanding?" Against the Current said.
"Hongchen Yixiao … is in the 17th server now, right?" Unsworn Sword asked.
"Yes, he can't contact you anymore," Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Tell me what we should do next," Black Index Finger said.
"The forest in the north! Qianli got drunk and they need to go there to get some necessities, "Water Breaking Arrow said.
"What are you waiting for? Go after them!!" The four guilds ordered.
"With their speed, it's going to be hard to catch up to them," Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Then what do we do?"
"We can only go to the next location of their mission in advance," Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Oh? Which direction? "The three guild masters asked.
"Follow me." Water Breaking Arrow led the way. The three looked at where he was going and were depressed, "Cloud Suburb Lake again?"
Water Breaking Arrow nodded.
The three sighed. They thought that Cloud Suburb Lake was a good place for an ambush, but now it seemed that Qianli could perform exceptionally well when he got drunk.
"Let's hurry!" Water Breaking Arrow said.
"Let's go." The three guild masters led the way.
"What's the situation now? Wait for me … "Unchung Mutsu sent a message in pain.
"Brother Yun Zhong, just one more time … You should just stay at the revival point and daydream!" The three guild masters comforted him.
"Don't even think about leaving me behind." Unchung Mutsu was filled with grief and indignation.
"What are you saying? We're just thinking about your safety, Brother Yun Zhong." The three guild masters expressed.
It would have been better if they didn't say this, but once they did, Unchung Mutsu was terrified again. Just one more time … Maybe these three guys would really take the chance to kill him. He was already in a difficult situation, what should he do?
At the north end of Cloud Suburb Lake, Xi Xiaotian and the other two quickly circled around the lake and arrived there. The forest didn't look that big. Courtney said that the things were in her house, so everyone thought that she didn't live in a tree hole. There should be a small house in the forest, so it would be an easy target.
After entering the forest, Xi Xiaotian suggested to split up. Slim Waist Dance nodded and walked to the right. Yutian Shenming was extremely calm and walked to the left. With a beauty in front of him, Yutian Shenming decided that even if he got lost, he wouldn't show any fear.
"Why are you running around? Follow me. "In the end, Xi Xiaotian dragged him back.
Yutian Shenming naively thought that there would be people who didn't know about his bad habit. It was really a fantasy.
Embarrassed, Yutian Shenming followed Xi Xiaotian and indeed found a small house in the forest. Yutian Shenming excitedly wanted to barge in, but suddenly stopped in front of the door. He took two steps back and whispered to Xi Xiaotian: "There's movement inside."
"What movement?" Xi Xiaotian was informing Slim Waist Dance of her location.
"There seems to be someone inside," Yutian Shenming said.
"It can't be?" Xi Xiaotian was stunned.
Yutian Shenming walked around the small house. It was really too small. There were no windows on the walls, but there was a skylight on the roof.
"Is there going to be a fight?" Yutian Shenming muttered. This was the reason why he didn't dare to rashly enter the house.
"Wait for Little Spy, come here," Xi Xiaotian said.
The forest wasn't big, and Slim Waist Dance didn't run too far. After receiving Xi Xiaotian's message, she arrived not long after. Hearing that there was someone in the house, she didn't care and stepped forward: "Look at how scared you guys are. I'll go take a look."
"Little Spy, don't." Xi Xiaotian hurriedly stopped her. "There's someone in the enemy's formation who is completely familiar with the mission. Maybe he's prepared for this step in advance and sent someone over to set a trap." Xi Xiaotian said while looking around vigilantly.
Yutian Shenming felt that it was very reasonable. He nocked his bow and arrow and took aim.
"That bastard Qianli, why hasn't he come yet?" Slim Waist Dance sent a message to Gu Fei.
"Creak." The door opened.
Yutian Shenming didn't even think and released an arrow.
"Damn!" With one sentence, a figure swayed inside the door. The voice seemed very familiar.
Following that, Gu Fei walked out with a dark face and glared at Yutian Shenming: "What are you doing?"
The three of them were dumbfounded. Yutian Shenming was surprised: "How did you get here first?"
"Oh, so the teleportation scroll is closer to here." Gu Fei said.
The three of their faces immediately darkened.
"Why didn't you let us use the teleportation scroll just now!" Slim Waist Dance was angry, although she didn't think of it at the time.
"Oh, didn't you want to swim over? I thought it was your hobby. "Gu Fei said.
"Hobby my ass!" Slim Waist Dance scolded.
"Did you find it?" Xi Xiaotian didn't argue with this question.
"Found it." Gu Fei took it out for them to see. It was a scroll. Magic tools always seemed to be scrolls.
"What scroll is it?" the three asked.
"Magic bubble. It can create a spherical magic barrier on the surface of an object after use." Gu Fei said.
"What do you mean?"
"You're asking me?" Gu Fei was surprised. He was waiting for an explanation!
"Only one?" The three asked Gu Fei.
"There are three." Gu Fei took out two more scrolls.
"I want one." Slim Waist Dance pounced. Gu Fei dodged and kicked her into the house.
"To be safe, should we go back and ask Courteney how to use it?" Xi Xiaotian said.
Gu Fei nodded: "Ask her. Don't waste it by yourself."
"But the people from the four major guilds are still there." Yutian Shenming said.
"Let's sneak back and see." Gu Fei said as he dodged the attacks of Slim Waist Dance who came out of the house.
"To be safe, use the teleportation scroll. They shouldn't be able to find that route." Xi Xiaotian suggested.
Gu Fei nodded and shook a scroll. The four of them flew out and ran in Courteney's direction.
They scouted from the hillside and didn't see anything unusual around Courteney. Who would've thought that eight hundred players were killed within a hundred meters of her? The four of them saw that there was no movement and immediately went forward.
Gu Fei went straight to the point. He took out the "Magic Bubble" scroll and asked Courteney how to use it.
Courtney was also straightforward. She took one and demonstrated it to Gu Fei's head. With a shake of the scroll, it quickly turned into countless bubbles, which gathered tightly around Gu Fei's head. Gu Fei, with such a huge bubble on his head, was very confused. The other three laughed so hard that they wanted to roll on the ground a few times to satisfy their craving.
"That's it! The Magic Bubble will wrap around your head and provide oxygen for your breathing. One scroll can last about fifteen minutes. "Courteney said.
At this time, the small bubbles on Gu Fei's head were constantly merging with each other and soon they would all merge into one big bubble. Gu Fei's head could be clearly seen inside, but the big bubble on his head was even more hilarious. The three of them were about to die from laughter.
"If I use two together, will the effect stack?" Xi Xiaotian laughed wildly and didn't forget to ask about serious matters.
"Yes." Courteney nodded.
"Fifteen minutes. I don't know if it's enough to finish what we have to do underwater. Just to be safe, one person should go? Two scrolls can guarantee at least half an hour. "Xi Xiaotian said.
"If I knew it was so easy, I wouldn't have asked her. I wasted one." Gu Fei was heartbroken.
"Before we get to the mission location, will the one on your head still be there?" Xi Xiaotian asked.
"No." Gu Fei said.
"That's a pity." Xi Xiaotian expressed his regret.
"Hey, you two, are you done laughing?" Gu Fei glared at the other two.
In the reeds facing Courteney, there were guild members lying on the ground. They quickly reported to the guild leader, "A Thousand Miles Drunk has appeared. He's in contact with Courteney!"
"Damn!!!" The three guild leaders who listened to Water Breaking Arrow's arrangements were furious and stared at Water Breaking Arrow.
