Chapter 1373: The Boss Killer



Chapter 1373: The Boss Killer

"Wow, the MVP of the contribution ranking will be rewarded one of the Twelve Divine Armaments…"

He Yi sounded astonished. "Even the second and third place will be rewarded with a Ghost Armament. The devs really are going all out with this patch. We really have to treat this patch seriously, or the pressure is high if Warsky Alliance or Candle Dragon manages to claim 1 or even 2 of these prizes for themselves."

I nodded. "The patch will launch 48 hours later. If I had to guess, undead creatures will be spawning throughout the entire continent. It’ll be a competition of DPS. Bosses will probably spawn across the map as well, and obviously killing bosses should yield higher contribution points. Anyway, let’s prepare the guild as soon as possible. We’ll organize the guild to hundred-man parties, thousand-man parties or even ten-thousand-man parties now so that we don’t waste time doing it on the launch day. We should also prepare potions, cards, consumables and everything else!"

"Mn." He Yi smiled warmly. "I got it, but you know we’re not going to get started until tomorrow, right? Did you really knock on my door just because of this?"

"Yeeeeeeeeees?"

I looked down. My beautiful guild leader was leaning against me and staring into my soul with those gentle, ticklish eyes. It was a temptation no man could possibly ignore.

So I bent down and kissed He Yi on the lips. I pushed the notebook away so that we wouldn’t accidentally knock it to the floor, but that was all I managed before He Yi hugged me tightly and responded in a way that could only be described as enthusiastic. The kiss lasted an entire minute before we finally separated to catch our breaths. Her cheeks felt as hot as my own, and her body was shivering a little against my own. Her eyelashes felt ticklish on my face as she blinked them.

A while later, I said smilingly, "Is that enough, Eve? Any more than this, and it’s going to wake something up…"

He Yi burst into a giggle before kissing me one last time on the cheek. "Go, you. Rest early so that you can grind instances with Yiyi and I tomorrow. Both our dragons need to hit Level 200 as soon as possible."

"Yes, but you don’t have to be too hasty. The March of Chaos won’t be ending anytime soon, and I’m sure there’ll be more than enough experience for everyone to share. Otherwise, it’s not possible for any player to hit Level 250 in a reasonable amount of time, and if no one can hit Level 250, then that new realm at Level 250 won’t surface as well."

"Yeah!"

……

I returned to bed after leaving He Yi’s room. It didn’t take long for me to enter a peaceful slumber.

Nothing particularly noteworthy happened during the second and third day, so I spent this time grinding instances with the girls, cards for the upcoming challenge, and helped Li Chengfeng and Gui Guzi overcome the S4 instance once and for all. It wasn’t like they couldn’t finish it themselves eventually, but it would have cost them some levels, and with the new patch coming out, they couldn’t afford to drop in strength. Unfortunately, the equipment drop rate wasn’t very good even with my Luck. Gui Guzi was the only one who got Archean Immortal-grade wristguards out of the S4 instance. Still, it was a great piece of equipment.

Very soon, it was 10 pm of the third day. The new patch would be launching in less than two hours.

Dark Moon City, inside the territory hall.

I was sitting on a stair and wiping away the dust on my Guardian Dragon Armor. My Chill of the Nine Provinces was resting peacefully against my thigh. A while later, I looked up at my players and commented, "Why are you all looking so nervous? It’s just another patch."

Li Chengfeng replied excitedly, "Sure, but the MVP of the March of Chaos has a 100% chance of getting one of the Twelve Divine Armaments, man! How can we not be excited! Even if we cannot be the MVP, the second and third place will still get a Ghost Armament each, and we’ve all seen how good the Seventy-two Ghost Armaments can be. Some of them are right up there with the Twelve Divine Armaments!"

I smiled. "That is true… oh right, did anything happen in the outer lands, brother Xu Yang? Dark Mercenaries must have made some preparations to deal with the upcoming patch, right? I heard that Little Piglet has been working them like horses ever since he became the guild leader…"

Xu Yang chuckled. "29 hours ago, Little Piglet led a troop of 10000 elite Iron Cutter Cavalrymen and swept four 10000-man parties of Purgatory Mad Dragon on the Abandoned Plains, pissing off Wang Dongliang to no end. 11 hours ago, he led 70000 elite cavalrymen and wiped out another 50k Purgatory Mad Dragon players who were grinding at Vanished God City’s borders, robbing plenty of potions and equipment in the process and enraging Roaming Dragon. Now, or should I say 2 hours ago, they are resting in their base and seemingly waiting for the new patch to launch."

He Yi sat down beside me with a beautiful frown on her face. "Something doesn’t feel right about this. Purgatory Mad Dragon isn’t so weak that they can’t even mount a counterattack against Little Piglet, not to mention Ray of Sunshine just joined them a while ago. He’s an elite player be it in terms of equipment or skill, so why didn’t he show up to stop Little Piglet’s rampage?"

Beside us, the guild leader of Protective Umbrella, Hickey, raised her arm and answered, "Guild leader, I’ve actually encountered Ray of Sunshine, Wang Dongliang, Profound Puff, Coldmoon Rose and Roaming Dragon in the outer lands before. They were tackling the S5 instance, Five Spirits Holy Realm…"

"What?" He Yi’s mouth fell open in astonishment.

Chaos Moon added, "Sister Eve, according to my intel, not only did their party manage to clear the Five Spirits Holy Realm in 6 hours, they’ve gotten the metal armor boots, wristguards and helmet of the Spirit Realm set, which is enough to trigger the set’s effects. Obviously, they’ve given it to Ray of Sunshine. A day ago, Lu Chao also spent 4 million to purchase an Ancient Immortal-grade ring that is probably meant for Ray of Sunshine as well. Suffice it to say, the guy’s stats are off the charts right now."

I clenched my fists. "God damn, that’s crazy! Not even we managed to clear the S5 instance yet! Is Purgatory Mad Dragon really going to defy the heavens with the Heaven Suppressing Necklace!?"

Li Chengfeng licked his lips playfully. "It sure looks like it. Of all the attributes you might want to have when fighting against a boss, 100% lifesteal is probably among the best of the best. Let’s say he deals around 200k damage with a basic attack, that’s 200k HP healed instantly. Profound Puff is a passable priest too, so not even the final boss of the S5 instance can crush Ray of Sunshine. As for Coldmoon Rose and Roaming Dragon, what they lack in skill they make up with equipment…"

Xu Yang joked, "Oh man, does that mean we should run away from Ray of Sunshine starting now? Haha!"

However, I narrowed my eyes and said, "Actually, yes. Unless you’re a top-tier player, it’s best to avoid clashing directly with him. Purgatory Mad Dragon has never been our friend, and I guarantee you they’ll be tempted to harass us now that they have Ray of Sunshine. We must be careful when we tackle the new patch later, and we should avoid getting into a fight with Purgatory Mad Dragon. If conflict is inevitable, then everyone is to take out Ray of Sunshine as soon as possible and preferably get him to drop the Heaven Suppressing Necklace. Without it, the guy’s nothing more but a toothless tiger!"

Gui Guzi bellowed in excitement, "Hell yeah! While we’re doing so, we should get Warsky to drop the Immortal Blade as well! Now that’s what I call a clean house!"

Chaos Moon rolled her eyes at Gui Guzi. "Maybe if you were the creator of Heavenblessed. Otherwise..."

Gui Guzi chuckled. "Oh look, the new patch’s about to start…"

……

It was 11:30 pm when the March of Chaos contribution ranking finally appeared on the interface. Everyone’s score was a big fat zero right now, but my ID was displayed at the first place. It was probably because I had always been the MVP of most of the game’s major events up until now. The second place was Vienna’s Sorrow, the third was Red Maple [1], and the fourth was Tear Stain. All three players were exceptionally fearsome opponents, but Red Maple was the one who caught my attention most of all. I had never forgotten about his precious Crimson Dragon Arm. It was the kind of baby that would put even a wielder of the Twelve Divine Armaments on their toes.

The last half an hour of waiting was excruciatingly painful, but finally a system announcement rang across the sky—

Ding!

System Announcement: The March of Chaos patch has officially launched. Players may choose between combat or construction quests to accrue contribution points.

Players who choose combat should seek out neutral maps outside the main city to begin their quests. One hour from now, 7 Divine Rank bosses, 77 Ancient Immortal Rank bosses, 744 Archean Immortal Rank bosses, as well as many bosses of lower ranks on the entire continent Killing these bosses will reward additional contribution points.

Players who choose construction should head to their respective main cities. Your rulers are currently preparing for war, so accrue massive amounts of contribution points by gathering herbs, hunting game, collecting wood, mining ores, fishing and more. Good luck!

……

"It’s begun!" He Yi exclaimed in excitement.

Li Chengfeng said, "Well, we’re obviously going to choose combat. What is the plan, Lu Chen?"

I brought up the world map and refreshed it. I immediately noticed that the outer lands in the northwest were dyed completely blood-red. Heaven knows how many high-level bosses have spawned in that area. It encompassed Bloody Shield Domain, Land of the Bloody Domain, Dragon Domain, Ancient Ruin and more. The most noteworthy map of them all was Ancient Ruin, a new map that spawned on the edge of the northwest border. It was most likely the ruin mentioned in the patch introduction, and those insanely powerful bosses such as Mingyu, Michael, Coldblade and Thunder probably all resided within.

I made up my mind and declared, "We will teleport to Vanished God City, cut a beeline across Bloody Shield Domain, and travel to the innermost map in the northwest! Make sure you bring all the potions and cards you can carry because there may not be a supply spot along the way. We’ll be marching as hundred-man parties, and I want every executive here to command 10000 players each to guarantee vigorous action. I’ll begin. Ahem, I’ll be taking Heaven’s Rain and Beiming, 5000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen, 3000 Dragonlight Archers, and 2000 Holy Mages…"

He Yi rolled her eyes at me. "Shameless. You literally took the best we have…"

I grinned. "Well, that’s about it. Let’s go!"

……

I brought up the party channel and dragged Beiming Xue and Heaven’s Rain’s IDs to my party. I then marked all three of us as the leaders of our ten-thousand-man party. I was the corps commander, so I could dispatch orders to the entire party.

"Beiming, Little Rain, I trust the two of you to pick our elites. Remember, do NOT accept those who are going to be logging out in 12 hours. It'll just be a waste of time…"

"We know, big bro!"

While the girls were selecting our 8000 Dragonlight Riders, I left to choose our 2000 Holy Mages. Moonlight Stone was among my choices. After everyone was ready, Heaven’s Rain buffed 3000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen with her Knight General, Beiming Xue buffed the Dragonlight Archers with her Bow God, and I buffed 2000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen and 2000 Holy Mages with Martial God. One of the greatest advantages of Martial God was that its 200% Attack boost applied to both Attack and Magic Attack. It was especially good for grinding maps!

After the order was given, all 10000 of us teleported to Vanished God City. Then, I climbed up the Ancient Divine Dragon, gripped the Chill of the Nine Provinces, and tuned my equipment luster for max flashiness. As the flagship player of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, now was the time to be as showy as possible. Li Chengfeng, He Yi, Gui Guzi and everyone else led their 10000-man parties to the plains, marching toward Bloody Shield Domain together.
