Chapter 378 - Separate Attacks (1/2)
“Misty Castle’s players might stop coming for now……”
Ye Xiu received reports from the guild members that were a.s.signed to Congee City. This time, after reviving, Misty Castle’s dungeon team didn’t seem to have any plans for leaving the city. Two of them were taking a stroll in the market, another two had gone to the Arena and one was just standing there, staring blankly into s.p.a.ce.
“Hahaha, they’re smart. They at least know what fear is.” Steamed Bun Invasion was delighted.
“Steamed Bun, you and Concealed Light go and train. You can leave Thousand Waves Lake to us.” Ye Xiu said. Steamed Bun Invasion and Concealed Light were more than five levels lower than Thousand Waves Lake’s monsters, so even if the two possessed the ability to beat the monsters here, the experience they would gain would be reduced because it was over the five level range. Leveling here was absolutely no good.
“Senior, will you guys be okay without us?” Steamed Bun Invasion asked in a serious tone.
“We’ll be fine. If not, we’ll call for you.” Ye Xiu said.
“No problem. You can call for us whenever you’d like.” Steamed Bun Invasion gave out a mighty expression. He turned around and looked towards Concealed Light: “Let’s go, little bro. Say bye bye to everyone.”
“F*ck off!” Concealed Light was sad. Steamed Bun Invasion didn’t stop treating him like a little bro; he was treating him like a little kid.
The two went off to their own suitable leveling areas. Ye Xiu and the other three were at the perfect level for Thousand Waves Lake, so they returned there. The guilds were no longer attacking together. If it was just a five-player team, let alone four players, Ye Xiu alone would enough to beat them. The reason they were in a group was for carrying out Ye Xiu’s usual battle spirit: if he was going to kill, then he would kill them all.
Thousand Waves Lake was as calm as it was before. There was no one in sight. Ye Xiu looked at the time; it was 1:17 A.M. Even if the guild dungeon teams started at 12 o’clock sharp, there was no way they’d be finished with their three runs already. The guilds that had partic.i.p.ated in the Christmas Event had each sent out eight players. In other words, three of them were left out.
For newer players, it wasn’t possible for them to clear Thousand Waves Lake with just three players. However, these were all veterans from the Heavenly Domain so Ye Xiu reckoned that it would be possible for them. The top guilds were still competing for the dungeon records, so an elite team consisting of a complete five players was necessary. The three that left out would have a harder time or perhaps they might look for other guilds to form parties with?
Ye Xiu guessed, but he couldn’t be certain.
In truth, Misty Lock’s thoughts weren’t wrong. Thousand Waves Lake was too huge and the number of players Ye Xiu could use were way too little. If he had wanted to cover the entire lake and make it so that it was impossible for the other players to enter, it would be impossible with just Ye Xiu’s small group. They could only continue chasing and killing the other guilds in order to threaten the guilds to give in. For example, Misty Castle had been a successful case, where they had to give up because they were too afraid of the dangers.
“What now?” Tang Rou asked after seeing that there was no one left to fight at Thousand Waves Lake.
“Would you be fine with a 1v5?” Ye Xiu asked.
“In the water?”
“On land.”
“I could try. But if they run, there would be nothing I could do.” Tang Rou said.
“Of course, if they split up and run, there’s nothing anyone could do, but you could at least kill one of them.” Ye Xiu said.
“Okay!” Tang Rou nodded her head.
“What about you, Thousand Creations?” Ye Xiu asked Thousand Creations.
“G.o.d, don’t joke with me……..” Thousand Creations wiped away some sweat.
“But getting their attention shouldn’t be any problem, right? I remember you being very good at taunting!” Ye Xiu said.
Thousand Creations was speechless. The past had come back to haunt him! At the time, he had taunted because he was too weak when compared to the G.o.d, which was why he had been preyed on because the other side thought he was easier to deal with. However, that was completely different! He hadn’t known of Lord Grim’s ident.i.ty at that time. Thousand Creations had felt extremely annoyed at that time. But now that he knew of Lord Grim’s true ident.i.ty, there was nothing he could say. Compared to G.o.d Ye Qiu, being a worse player was a given.
“G.o.d, what do you want me to do?”
“If you can’t beat them, then lure them to where we are.” Ye Xiu said.
“Okay, I’ll do my best!” Thousand Creations said.
“That’s good. Next, we’ll be camping at the dungeon entrance. We don’t know which entrance they’ll be coming from, so each person will each take one! The more you can kill the better. Thousand Creations, you can just report your position and then we’ll find a way to meet up.” Ye Xiu planned.
“Understood!” the three affirmed.
“Horse Shooter, you’ll be the same as Thousand Creations.” Ye Xiu suddenly called.
“Okay.” The voice came out from the grove near the sh.o.r.e. The Launcher, Horse Shooter, came out from there. He had been hiding there the entire time and had killed some monsters onsh.o.r.e, while keeping an eye out. Horse Shooter had been the one to discover Misty Castle’s dungeon team the first time. It was too bad that his observation range was limited because he was by himself. He had only found Misty Castle’s tracks. He had continued to wander around after that, but he hadn’t been able to find anyone else.
Soon after, the five players went into the lake and split up. After each of them chose an entrance, they landed and reported to each other. Then, they began to study how to ambush the teams coming from the entrance in front of them.
