As the saying goes, one wrong move and the whole game is lost.
At the Archer resurrection point in Cloud City, Yin Sandpaper really wanted to cry. But after his subordinates were sent over, Yin Sandpaper could only pretend to be strong. He stepped forward and patted their shoulders one by one. "This time, it's my fault. I didn't expect Qianli to be so despicable. He even changed the exam questions at the last minute."
"The question was Slender Waist Dance." Someone reminded Yin Sandpaper.
"The most vicious thing is a woman's heart. I also neglected this point." Yin Sandpaper's voice was a bit hoarse.
"How are the brothers?" Yin Sandpaper looked at the other Archers. They were all in their group at the time.
"Those who can die seem to be dead." One of them replied.
If they were dead and hadn't been seen, then there was only one reason. The Thieves weren't at this resurrection point. They were at the Thieves Guild.
"Damn it!" Yin Sandpaper angrily kicked a hole in the ground.
"What's the situation over there now?" Sandpaper asked in the comms channel. Other than the person who had been exposed and killed, there was another group of people lying in ambush at the city gate. Yin Sandpaper's arrangement was quite meticulous. They weren't all piled up together, but they weren't too far apart either. They could take care of each other if anything happened. There was a chance to take care of each other in this incident. For example, the two brothers who died at the beginning. Everyone could have taken advantage of that opportunity to escape. But Yin Sandpaper was too confident and played tricks on the other side. Who knew that the other side wasn't so shallow and played him instead. In the end, he confidently ran over to answer the questions, thinking that he knew the answers. But he couldn't stop the other side from changing the questions at the last minute. With one wrong answer, not only did he die, but he also implicated a group of brothers. Yin Sandpaper still patted the other side's shoulders to cheer them on. He was quite thick-skinned.
At this time, he asked about the situation over there, but there was no reply. After a while, white light flashed and the third group was sent back.
"What happened?" Yin Sandpaper was startled. After witnessing their tragedy, he thought that this group wouldn't be stupid enough to answer the questions. At least they wouldn't lose their lives if they stayed still. Who would have thought that everyone would return so quickly.
The archer who came back was very depressed. He spat on the ground. "When Qianli was drunk, that guy shouted for the players to help monitor each other. Then he asked questions to see who didn't answer. We wanted to make up the numbers in the crowd, but the players in Cloud City were too disloyal. They immediately sold us out. F * ck, what the hell is this?! "
"What are you talking about!" Sandpaper quickly stopped the man from continuing. This was Cloud City, and this guy was scolding the players of Cloud City. As a matter of fact, there were already several unfriendly gazes directed at him.
Seeing that the other party didn't respond and left, Sandpaper breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that we can't just sit back and wait. We have to change our plan."
"Why don't we go somewhere else?" someone suggested.
"It would be best if we could split up and guard a few places where people gather, but the problem is that we don't have enough manpower. Although there are many assassins, there are only two eyes. Sigh!" Sand Paper sighed.
"But don't lose heart. There will always be a way." Sand Paper said as he left the resurrection point with the archers. As he was thinking about where to go next, he suddenly felt a pain behind him.
"F * ck!" Sand Paper shouted.
There was an ambush outside the resurrection point. How could he forget such an old trick?
It was too late for Sand Paper to react. A group of assassins had already appeared and surrounded the archers. In close combat, the archers had no chance of winning, even if they were an expert like Sand Paper.
"Who's the leader?" Cloud Twilight asked majestically among the group of assassins.
"Me." Sand Paper was startled, thinking that the other side wanted to negotiate.
"It's him. Work hard. He has something good to drop." Cloud Twilight pointed at Sand Paper.
Yin Sandpaper almost cried. There were some strange superstitions among the players that didn't make sense. For example, some people believed that killing monsters faster would increase the drop rate, while others believed that killing the last hit would increase the drop rate … These were all things that the game officials had openly declared to be nonsensical. However, the players turned a deaf ear to them and continued to enjoy it.
The players also needed faith, but believing in the game company was a very shameful thing, so they created their own faith. Some people explained it this way.
Cloud Twilight and his brothers also seemed to be people with faith. It seemed that their faith was that the target who "worked hard" during PvP would drop good items. Sand Paper had never heard of this saying. He only knew that after Cloud Twilight said this, at least five knives came stabbing at him.
Sand Paper couldn't defend himself. He had just come out of the resurrection point, but in the blink of an eye, he went back in.
Sand Paper regretted it. He really regretted it. If he hadn't registered when he came over this time, he would have been sent back to his hometown by Qianli's drunken stupor. At the very least, he could have avoided dying. Moreover …
"F * ck!" Sand Paper blurted out. He realized that he was currently barefoot. His boots had dropped!
Apart from their weapons, the most important equipment for a Marksman was a pair of boots that allowed them to move extremely quickly. Sand Paper's boots were obviously the best of the best, but now, they had abandoned him without hesitation. Cloud Twilight's "selling tactics" seemed to be very effective. He had already picked up the boots that Sand Paper had dropped. He looked at the attributes and laughed. He then took off his smelly shoes and walked two steps forward. He smiled at Sand Paper in the resurrection point and said, "Good shoes. Not bad."
Sandpaper was about to go crazy, but his brothers quickly returned. They pulled Sandpaper, who was about to rush out.
"Don't be provoked. You'll just die if you go out." Everyone took turns shouting in Sand Paper's ear.
Cloud Twilight was extremely arrogant outside. "Are you going out? If not, we're leaving. "As he said this, he waved his hand and the group swaggered out. Suddenly, Cloud Twilight reached into his pocket and threw something in. "Wear this. It's cold on the ground."
Sand Paper almost spat out a mouthful of blood. It was a pair of straw sandals that couldn't be any more worn out. It wasn't a piece of equipment at all. It was probably the kind of worthless trash that monsters dropped. You could wear it, but if you wore it, even level 10 noobs would look down on you at the Revival Point for begging their brothers and sisters for money.
One of the archers quickly kicked the straw sandals away, while another pulled out a pair of boots that could at least be considered equipment for Yin Sandpaper to deal with. Everyone had worried expressions on their faces as they comforted Yin Sandpaper. Even though they had died, those who had their equipment dropped were even more pitiful. They also knew how important these boots were to Sand Paper.
The Archer Shooting Range was like this. The Thieves' Guild was basically repeating the same story. However, there wasn't someone as important as Sand Paper there.
The leader was Yun Xiang. She had a lot of people with different classes. It was obviously more troublesome to deal with Thieves than Archers, whose weaknesses were more obvious.
But in the end, they took down their opponents with zero casualties. The ambush was well designed and targeted. The Thieves walked out together and were immediately surrounded. Yun Xiang waved her hand and the Mages sent them back the way they came. They couldn't escape even if they used Speed and Stealth.
"Damn, why are they all men?" Fireball shook his head in dissatisfaction. He leaned against the door of the Thieves' Guild and roared, "Hey, do you have girls in your guild? Do you dare to send some? Do you dare … "
Before Fireball could finish, Yun Xiang covered his mouth and dragged him away. She explained to the spectators, "Roam the world and squat people. If there's nothing to do, just dodge."
"Pfft!" One of the girls saw through it immediately. "That perverted brat is a playboy. He's the only Mage in that shameless guild. I know him."
Fireball was overjoyed and struggled to say, "Haha, I'm a human too! Beauty, do you have time to go to Yunjiao Lake for supper? I'm a level 37 chef!!! "
"Take it away, take it away!!" Yun Xiang yelled. A few strength-based players hurried over to take Fireball away.
"I told you not to let this guy come!" Yun Xiang wiped her sweat.
"Only Boss Qianli can take care of him," someone said.
"Mm, Boss Qianli can take care of him!" Yun Xiang sighed in admiration. Only Qianli could take care of such a shameless guy when he was drunk. She was far from it.
"What about us now?" someone asked.
"Want Your Life Three Thousand, Mizolestin, you two stay here and keep watch. The rest of you, follow me to the back street." Yun Xiang waved her hand and brought people to see if there was another chance. However, they hadn't even taken a few steps when Want Your Life Three Thousand shouted, "They're gone. Teleport."
"They're all gone?" Yun Xiang looked at the resurrection point.
"Not a single one left." Want Your Life Three Thousand was certain.
"Then let's maintain the status quo!" Yun Xiang led everyone to lie in ambush outside the Thieves' Guild.
Professions that were suited for sneak attacks had to have high mobility. They were either Thieves or Archers. Therefore, the Han Family Young Master had already made arrangements for these two resurrection points. Even though they were already exposed, staying behind was still a restriction. Those who died and came back had to either go offline or use scrolls to escape. There was no other choice.
"F * ck!!!!!" Yin Sandpaper roared into the sky in the wilderness of Cloud City. He didn't fly back to his hometown. Instead, he erased his coordinates and teleported. Flying back to his hometown meant that he would have to come back. Whether it was using scrolls or walking, it was painful. Therefore, he chose to hide in the wilderness.
Yin Sandpaper had three archer companions beside him. He didn't know where the others went. Blank scrolls teleported randomly. Two scrolls randomly teleported to the same place. The probability was close to zero.
This place was desolate. Yin Sandpaper and the others were unfamiliar with this place. They were lonely and bitter. The world was huge, but they had nowhere to go.
"What do we do now?" someone beside him asked.
"It's hard to succeed in an assassination …" Yin Sandpaper was in pain. The others were silent.
"All our actions are predicted by them. How can we win?" Yin Sandpaper said.
"Then what do we do?"
"Looks like there's only one solution left. Let's organize a large group of people and find the second path." As long as we have enough strength to suppress them, it doesn't matter how fast they are. "Yin Sandpaper said.
"But, I heard that last time in Cloud City, there were tens of thousands of people gathered to eradicate a very overpowered player. In the end, they were forcibly wiped out by Qianli in a drunken stupor." In the days of lurking in Cloud City, these guys had heard a lot of information.
"I know. It's the time when his PK value was so high!" Yin Sandpaper said.
"Yeah!"
"But we're different from those tens of thousands of people. Those tens of thousands of people are led by two level 6 guilds in Cloud City. The others are just a motley crew. What about us? We're from 31 main cities. 31 main cities and 31 level 6 guilds. Qianli can beat two level 6 guilds in a drunken stupor. Can he beat 31 guilds? Can he, can he, can he? "Yin Sandpaper began to roar again.
"Boss, calm down!" The others hurriedly advised.
"There are now 26 guilds." Someone reminded.
"He can fight against twenty-six families? Can he, can he, can he, can he? "Yin Sandpaper roared again. No one dared to stop him.
Yin Sandpaper was done roaring. He sat down on the ground and finished his friend list.
His tragedy and Weathered Sandpaper's comedy happened almost at the same time.
Not long after Weathered Sandpaper confirmed the second path with Ye Xiaowu, he was scared shitless by Gu Fei.
Now that he had found the second path, he could at least continue using his tyrannical strength. This was already the last shred of comfort for Yin Sandpaper.
The guild had become their last hope. As for themselves? Bullshit, it's only been two days, and they've all lost levels to the point where they don't even look like ghosts anymore. Level 40, the starting level 40. In their minds, this was a very, very low level. In their minds, level 0 to 40 were all noobs. But now, many of them stood at the peak of noobs.
"Alright, hurry up!" Yin Sandpaper lay in the wilderness and looked up at the sky. He was looking forward to more support from his friends. More reliable friends.
The 25 VIPs all received the news that Yin Sandpaper's assassination had failed. Everyone understood that it was time to make the last move.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, they weren't willing to take this path.
This was a path of favors, a very big favor. There would be many friends, friends of friends, friends of friends of friends. In short, the favors of all the people in the network would be borrowed and used.
What was it for? They couldn't give an accurate answer. Was it for Ying Qi's reward? Impossible. Was it to avenge their brothers who had been sacrificed? A little, but mostly because he was angry. He was angry because he didn't want to steam the steamed buns. This matter had started because of the steamed buns. But now it had become a fight of personal feelings. Everyone was unable to swallow the humiliation of being beaten to a sorry state by someone who was extremely heaven-defying. Those who could bear it and didn't want to fight over personal feelings had already quit.
"Is everyone ready?" Weathered Sandpaper sent a group message.
The answer was unanimous.
"Then, let's set off overnight. We'll first meet up at Moonlit Night City and then rest. Tomorrow, we'll break through the second path and head straight for Cloud City!" Weathered Sandpaper announced.
The elites of the 26 main cities were dispatched. They began to move towards the same goal.
Although many of them weren't willing, because of a favor, everyone gathered together and moved forward for the same goal.
"Defeat Weathered Sandpaper!" Everyone knew the purpose of their trip. They also heard the reason behind it. Although they didn't understand, everyone had a reason they couldn't refuse.
Brothers! Friends! It was also because of this reason that they gathered together.
Cloud City suddenly became very quiet. After Yin Sandpaper's order, the assassination had all stopped. The assassins and archers who were hiding suddenly became citizens and lived harmoniously with the players of Cloud City. They were waiting for the arrival of a bigger storm. They felt like they could already see the sky of Cloud City filled with dark clouds.
The number of people gathered by the VIPs was quickly tallied. There were a total of 12257 elites from the 26 main cities.
"On average, each of them mobilized almost 500 people." Level 1 Hypothermia said.
"The players of Cloud City are so lucky!" Weathered Sandpaper exclaimed, "They've seen the peak of individual strength in the game. Now they'll see the peak of team strength. Even the Ten Guilds Alliance was insignificant in front of us, right? "
"They're not on the same level at all." Level 1 Hypothermia said, "These ten thousand people can be said to be at the peak of their respective main cities."
"Is it finally starting?" The boss of Ingenious, Matchless Sandpaper, quickly received the news after the main cities' teams set off. His information network was undoubtedly accurate and fast.
"How's the inventory going?" Matchless Sandpaper turned around and asked Five Nights.
"It'll all be done today." Five Nights' eyes were red, obviously caused by staying up all night.
"You've worked hard. After this, everyone can have a good rest." Matchless Sandpaper said.
Five Nights nodded, but there was still a trace of hesitation in his expression.
"What do you want to say?" Matchless Sandpaper sensed it.
"This time, we've provoked a huge war between the main cities. It's inevitable that a large amount of equipment and resources will be sold out. However, it seems like we're not the only ones benefiting from this. All the studios can profit from this! "Five Nights said.
"Hehe." Matchless Sandpaper laughed, "You're right, but there are three points that you didn't consider."
"First, this is our plan, of course we're the most prepared. Even if the other studios realized this and immediately started preparing, they're already one step behind us. Before such a large-scale dumping, a clear inventory is necessary. Otherwise, it'll be hard to verify if there's a shortfall. "
"Second, we've won the trust of at least one of the two parties that are about to fight. We'll be their first consumer choice, and they're still suspicious of the other studios."
"Third, we'll be taking all the benefits, and the others won't get anything. This isn't good. As long as we take the majority of the benefits, we don't have to care too much. Our current situation isn't suitable to be hated by everyone in the industry. "
"I see." After listening to Matchless Sandpaper's explanation, Five Nights finally understood.
"What about the other matter? How's it going?" Matchless Sandpaper asked.
Although Five Nights was tired, his expression was relaxed, "It's going smoothly. We've already made some progress. Actually, if it wasn't for our information network running into trouble, we would've found them long ago. "
"That's good. What about them forever? "
"They're fine. They're probably leveling up!" Five Nights said.
"They don't need to get involved in the business. I've been investigating a few people recently. When the time comes, you'll be in charge of them! Here's the list. "Matchless Sandpaper passed to Five Nights.
