There was no doubt that the boss's gaming skills weren't that good. 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 actually had a hidden force. This group of people was probably mainly fighting.
Five Nights and the others mainly worked in the game and didn't have much time for entertainment. However, Matchless Wonder was different. The studio was on the right track, and he only needed to deal with things 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. Level 42 shouldn't be something that a player who played at most two to three hours a day could achieve. However, Matchless Wonder was just like that. Although most people attributed this to Matchless Wonder's good 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, so they just chatted casually. 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 boss could level up so efficiently 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, of course, Five Nights didn't ask more. At this time, Matchless Wonder sent him to do something, 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 so badly by them, which was quite exciting. Everyone in the guild was cheering and going to celebrate. As for the celebration, it was nothing more than drinking.
Cloud Twilight strongly invited Gu Fei to come. Of course, Gu Fei wasn't interested in drinking and partying. However, Yun Zhongmu had been 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 used the excuse of completing a quest as an excuse to continue his Wanted Quest.
The celebration of the Ten Societies Alliance was in full swing. A 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, Cloud Twilight 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. Cloud Twilight's alcohol tolerance was average. After a few rounds, he couldn't hold on anymore. He drank until he saw stars, but there was still an endless stream of people who wanted to continue drinking him. Cloud Twilight relied on his speed as a Thief, so he used Swift Steps and began to run away.
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 messed with me like this. I can't hang around with them anymore … Cloud Twilight felt dizzy. Getting drunk in the game was also very uncomfortable. I wonder if I'll be fine when I go offline and log back in? With this thought, Cloud Twilight wanted to go to the revival point and try. However, when he turned around, he saw two masked Assassins standing at the entrance of the alley, looking at him.
"Are you the boss of the Ten Guilds Alliance?" asked the masked Assassin.
"That's me. Who are you guys? "Cloud Twilight replied indifferently. At this moment, his brain wasn't working.
"Our boss told us to send you his regards," said the masked Assassin.
When Cloud Twilight 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, using Swift Steps. Cloud Twilight was also a Thief turned Assassin, so he could naturally see that these two were very skilled. They split up and launched a pincer attack at him from both sides.
Cloud Twilight wasn't an easy character to deal with, but in his current state of drunkenness, he couldn't even walk steadily. He wanted to move forward, but his legs swayed and he fell right in front of the other party's sword. This Assassin was quite ferocious. The flying dagger slashed towards Cloud Twilight's neck. Cloud Twilight had no time to react. He only felt his health drop by a large chunk. This Assassin's attack power wasn't low.
Attack power was 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, Cloud Twilight couldn't even stand steadily. His dodging and counterattacking were all a mess. He knew that he was in big trouble, but he was powerless. In the end, he turned into a ball of white light.
After dying and reviving, Cloud Twilight's drunkenness was completely cleared. However, this method of sobering up was a bit too extravagant. Yun Zhongmu was naturally furious. He didn't even know what kind of person this peerless genius was, and yet he was killed for no reason.
After Cloud Morning announced that he had been plotted against in the guild channel, he was unexpectedly met with a wave of laughter. Everyone laughed at Cloud Morning's drunken joke, saying that it was very tasteless, very lacking in skill, and very brainless. Cloud Twilight didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He solemnly repeated his words several times, but the guild members were all in a half-drunk, half-sober state. They didn't believe him no matter what. Eventually, there was a sober and attentive person who discovered that Cloud Twilight's level on the guild list had dropped by a level. 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, Cloud Twilight knew who the guild had offended the most. With his clear-headed mind, he quickly realized that this might be the punishment that Ink Studio was trying to use force against him.
Cloud Twilight looked down on the people from the Image Workshop from the bottom of his heart. 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.
Cloud Twilight was very heroic. He guessed that since the other party wanted to take revenge on him, there might be people lying in wait outside the Thief Union. Cloud Twilight 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." Cloud Twilight only heard a sinister voice from behind him. Following that, someone pushed him. Cloud Twilight fell forward and immediately took a few steps away from the revival point. The experienced Cloud Twilight didn't immediately turn around to look. Instead, he immediately dodged. He rolled on the ground, only to see flames, arrows, swords, and everything else flying towards him. None of them seemed weak. Cloud Twilight 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. This assassin team that Image Workshop had hired was actually quite difficult to deal with.
As Cloud Twilight thought about this, the other party's second wave of attacks arrived. A few Mages blasted out AoE spells. They didn't directly attack Cloud Twilight, but rather restricted his movements. Taking advantage of the gaps between the spells, the other party's melee professions had already rushed in. In the blink of an eye, Cloud Twilight was completely surrounded.
"They're not ordinary experts … …" Cloud Twilight was shocked. This coordination was extremely experienced. Their control over their skills was also extremely high. Cloud Twilight, who had fought in hundreds of battles, couldn't dodge. In the blink of an eye, he died again.
Cloud Twilight, who had died a second time, was surprisingly calm. The opponent wasn't simple. They attacked decisively and killed in one hit. Cloud Twilight 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? Those two people, either one of them was no weaker than him. If the two of them worked together … … Cloud Twilight felt that he definitely wouldn't be able to defeat them. Whether or not he could escape would depend on whose equipment and movement speed was faster.
Cloud Twilight hurriedly rushed to the revival point's entrance. This time, he didn't dare to casually step out. The assassins weren't in a hurry to leave either. They didn't even wear masks. They calmly revealed their true faces. Seeing Cloud Twilight 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 Cloud Twilight's roar of "Who are you?"
Cloud Twilight was sullen! He wanted to rush out and fight to the death with these people, but he knew that he was alone. There was no way he could be a match for such a well-coordinated team. Cloud Twilight counted the number of people on the other side. There were a total of nine people surrounding 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 Cloud Twilight even more furious. This meant that the other side had complete confidence in Cloud Twilight. They believed that they wouldn't suffer any damage. Of course, there was no need to bring a Cleric. At this time, they seemed to know that Cloud Twilight wouldn't rush out of the revival point. They might as well just leave.
But when would this group of people appear again? Cloud Twilight obviously didn't know. He suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He realized that he was already a prey that had been targeted. 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, Cloud Twilight 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!
Cloud Twilight stayed in the revival point in pain until many of his brothers from the Ten Guilds Alliance rushed over. Cloud Twilight had already lost two levels. He had suffered heavy losses. A group of people had already started cursing on Cloud Twilight's behalf. However, Cloud Twilight'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 continue like this, 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 Cloud Twilight 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 quite famous. If Yun Zhong Mu 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 the name of their mercenary group: Eagle Group.
"On the way here, we killed Yun Zhong Mu twice." The Knight reported to Matchless Genius while commanding the others to help the boss lure monsters.
"Good job, Everlasting." Matchless Genius said.
If Yun Zhong Mu heard this name, even if he didn't know who it was, he would definitely recognize it. The parallel world's number one Knight, Everlasting. After the city war, even the Five Roaches on the leaderboards were reshuffled. However, Everlasting's position didn't change. He was just like his ID. Ever since he became number one on the Knight leaderboards, he never gave any other Knights a chance. Of course, for the players in Cloud City's Moonlit Night City, these were all unfamiliar experts. Moreover, the most terrifying expert in the game, Qianli, would appear whenever he was drunk. In front of him, the glory 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 Yun Zhong Mu 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 around 24 hours a day. Matchless Genius didn't play for a fixed amount of time each day. Some were long, some were short, and some were absent. The members of the Eagle Group were actually quite free most of the time. However, to them, the game wasn't just their 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, but they were a group of professional players with a fixed boss, while Southbound Sword's group were freelance workers.
"Yeah, killing Yun Zhong Mu seems pretty easy for you guys, but you still have to be careful of one person." Matchless Genius said.
"Are you talking about Qianli's 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 as well. It feels like a gathering of old friends." Everlasting suddenly laughed.
