Chapter 373 - Blue River’s Analysis (1/2)

With Blooming Blossom as a model, Misty Castle’s guild leader, Misty Lock, felt too embarra.s.sed to go into a rage because of his team’s wipe out, so he calmly replied: “What’s the situation?”

Hazy Mist felt quite puzzled over this question. After a long while, he still couldn’t think of any other way of saying it, so he repeated what he felt that everyone should already know: “They were killed by Happy’s players at Thousand Waves Lake.”

“Of course we know that.” Misty Lock continued, “But didn’t we already warn everyone? Why weren’t you being careful?”

“We were careful……. But they somehow got close to us.” Hazy Mist had also asked the five who had been wiped out about this issue, so he simply pa.s.sed on what those five had said.

“With G.o.d Ye Qiu there, the things they can do will definitely surpa.s.s our expectations.” Arisaema said. Many others agreed. They had all experienced the water battle previously. At the time, none of them had seen how Ye Qiu and Su Mucheng had gotten into the water without them noticing. Other than their opponents’ ability surpa.s.sing their expectations, how else could they explain it?

And now, even while being careful, they had still been closed in on and killed without them knowing. The guild leaders appeared very calm in the group chat, but they were actually very worried when they were speaking to their own guilds. They hastily confirmed that their teams were, in fact, being careful.

Apart from this, what else could they do?

After understanding the circ.u.mstances, the group was once again at their wits’ end. None of them could think of a solution. The guild leaders hated how this was happening in the new server. If this had happened in an old server, they could immediately transfer players over from the Heavenly Domain there. No matter how great Ye Qiu was, there was no way he could fight off a sea of people. But in the new server, there were only 100 players that could reach this leveling area. All of the others were too underleveled. Plus, the majority of them were new players, so many of them would have their doubts and couldn’t be used for much yet.

The group chat was in complete silence. West Riding Wind and Misty Lock, who had been talking about their situations in the Heavenly Domain, felt that it was too inappropriate to chat. None of them could come up with any countermeasures. All they could do was warn their teams repeatedly to stay careful.

After several minutes of worrying, the overall guild leaders were finally notified by the tenth server guild leaders that their teams had entered the dungeon. Only then were they able to heave a sigh of relief.

“What about Ye Qiu? Where are they right now?” Everyone was once again discussing this question.

“He’s probably wandering around in the lake……..” someone replied. No one could see how he was gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth in anger, though.

“Are they actually planning on wandering around all day?”

“Why does that question sound somewhat familiar?”

It was true. That question had already been asked about before, except it was from a different perspective. Before, they had thought that the other side were staying in Thousand Waves Lake to protect themselves. But now, they knew that staying in Thousand Waves Lake was a form of attack. Not only was the dungeon in the middle of Thousand Waves Lake, but the monsters for leveling and the main quests were all located in this leveling area. If they were forced back to Sin City in order to level because of this threat, their leveling speed would definitely slow down a lot.

But what if they didn’t retreat? Every time they were killed, they would lose 10% of their experience. This loss would be even worse than retreating back to Sin City.

“Should we gather up everyone? If we have 100 players, Ye Qiu’s group might not be brave enough to attack.” Misty Lock suggested.

“Are you sure that he won’t be brave enough?” The main speakers in this group chat were the overall guild leaders, while the tenth server guild leaders were mostly there to convey the orders to the guild, so they rarely made any suggestions. But Blue River, Blue Brook Guild’s tenth server guild leader, suddenly opposed.

“Oh? Brother Blue River, what do you think?” Misty Lock didn’t look down on this guild leader because, after all, Blue River was a famous player in the Heavenly Domain. Apart from not having as many responsibilities as an overall guild leader, he wasn’t any worse in any other area.

“I came to the tenth server early on and I came into contact with Lord Grim or Ye Qiu very early. Our big guild was on the losing side in every interaction ever since we first met. He had always been in control. I think Tyrannical Ambition’s Cold Night knows this very well, too.”

“…….” Cold Night was gloomy. He had prolonged experience with him, but his was different from Blue River’s. He was from Tyranny, the team whose mortal enemy was Ye Qiu. Against such a rival, even if he was convinced in his heart, he couldn’t say it out loud, especially when there were so many players……

“I do……” After a moment of hesitation, Cold Night decided to reply honestly.

With a human testimony, Blue River continued: “I don’t think I need to talk about how skilled Ye Qiu is. The most important point is his style. At the very least, I’ve never seen him choose to retreat or surrender. We might have the advantage for one moment, but he’ll always have a backup plan and in the end, the ones who lose out are us. Who knows how many times this has happened before. I’m sure Cold Night also knows this, too……”
