Chapter 26: Two Guilds Confront Each Other
Chapter 26: Two Guilds Confront Each Other
The village chief’s residence was located at the entrance square, which was also the spawning point for new players.
After spawning, players could accept a series of beginner quests from the village chief.
These quests offered decent rewards and were perfect for players who didn’t want to grind mindlessly.
...
Since it was the spawning point, and the entrance square was quite spacious, a large number of players gathered there, chatting, hanging out, and enjoying the lively atmosphere.
Looking at the bustling square, Su Yu felt a mix of emotions.
In his previous life, when he entered the game, it had already been running for half a year.
By then, most people were aware of the Scru's existence. When they entered the game, they were all in a hurry, their faces grim, completely losing the joy of playing. They treated the game purely as a means to improve themselves.
Back then, despite the player count being dozens of times higher than now, the square was very quiet, nothing like the lively scene before him.
Standing next to the village chief, Su Yu felt a bit bored, as he had nothing to do for the past half hour.
Suddenly, an idea struck him: "Since the square is so lively, why not call over the Sky Slash Guild to join in the fun? It’s more interesting to mingle with the crowd than to grind monsters for levels."
With that thought, Su Yu opened the private chat interface.
Su Yu: "Are you there?"
Sky Slash Sword: "What’s up?"
Su Yu: "In about half an hour, a BOSS will spawn in the entrance square of Newbie Village 6."
Su Yu wasn’t lying; the Star-Casting Dragon King was a genuine BOSS.
Sky Slash Sword: "I’m already in Newbie Village 6. A BOSS? What kind of BOSS? Is it an Easter Egg BOSS or a monster invasion?"
Sky Slash Sword was a seasoned player. Just from Su Yu’s vague mention of a "BOSS," he had already considered two possibilities.
It wasn’t surprising, as game operators often organized such events during the launch to give players some small benefits.
Su Yu: "I’m not entirely sure, but according to some insider information, it was summoned by the Blood Emperor Guild."
Sky Slash Sword: "Blood Emperor!!! I’m on my way!"
In the Level 4 Hill Goat monster zone.
Sky Slash Sword put down his sword and shield, stopped attracting monsters, and looked towards the direction of the newbie village with a cold and fierce expression.
Sky Slash Sword: "Boss, what’s wrong?" Big Bee stopped drawing his bow.
Sky Slash Sword: "It’s like this." He repeated everything Su Yu had told him.
Big Bee’s eyes lit up. "If it’s a BOSS summoned by the Blood Emperor, we have to snatch it! This will also help our members vent their frustration!"
Sky Slash Sword: "That’s what I was thinking." He nodded. "Qing Li, privately message all the mid-level and above members. As long as they’re online, have everyone gather at the square of Newbie Village 6!"
Qing Li: "Got it, Boss."
As Sky Slash Sword was rallying his guild, Su Yu was also in contact with True Red-Eyed Black Dragon.
Su Yu: "Red Eye, the Sky Slash Guild is going to summon a BOSS at our newbie village’s square. Are you interested?"
True Red-Eyed Black Dragon: "(.)? A BOSS? What kind of BOSS?"
Su Yu: "According to insider information, it seems to be a BOSS that’s the final reward of a quest chain. Sky Slash Sword and his core team will be there, and they’re taking it very seriously."
True Red-Eyed Black Dragon: "Got it, I’ll ask our guild leader. (へ╮)"
Su Yu: "Can you not use emoticons?"
True Red-Eyed Black Dragon: "(;′⌒`) I’ll try."
True Red-Eyed Black Dragon exited the private chat with Su Yu, copied their conversation, and forwarded it to Blood Emperor Slayer.
After about a minute, the message from the guild leader, Tyrant Blood, arrived: "I'll bring Ling Feng and the team over right away. We'll meet up at the Red Eye Black Dragon. But remember, the priority is to secure the boss. Try to avoid conflicts with the members of the Sky Slash guild. If too many people die because of this, it won't be worth it."
Red Eye Black Dragon: "Got it, Guild Leader! (≧▽≦)"
With the guild leader’s approval, Red Eye Black Dragon closed the private chat window and excitedly turned to his three teammates. "Let’s go! Gather everyone, and we’ll head to Newbie Village 6 right away!"
The golden-haired beauty, Winged Dragon, flicked her hair. "Oh? Newbie Village 6 again? Don’t tell me that every time Killer calls, you rush over like a puppy?"
Red Eye Black Dragon: "."
The red-haired little girl, Sky Dragon, looked dejected. "Uncle Red, why won’t Brother Killer accept my friend requests no matter how many times I send them?"
"He might not like little girls," Red Eye Black Dragon replied offhandedly. "Let’s go. We’ll talk about it on the way. This is a direct order from the guild leader. If we’re late, we’ll lose our bonuses this month!"
"Got it," the three teammates answered half-heartedly and followed him out of the training area.
Thanks to Su Yu’s instigation, the square of Nolahn Village was now a hotbed of tension.
Sky Slash Sword arrived with his team first and began to wait patiently.
During this time, a large number of Sky Slash guild members gathered from all directions, gradually forming a group of four to five hundred people, occupying half of the square.
Tyrant Blood and Red Eye Black Dragon also arrived from other newbie villages.
Transferring between villages in Evolution was quite convenient; all it took was a conversation with the NPC, the Carriage Driver, with no cost involved.
This made it easy for players to team up with friends in different villages and to move from crowded villages to less crowded ones for leveling.
As for "village transfers to snatch hidden quests," there was no need to worry.
Each hidden quest had a "unique" attribute. Once a player accepted a hidden quest, whether they completed it or failed, no other player in any village or even on a foreign server could trigger it again.
The members of Tyrant Blood’s guild also arrived quickly.
Upon reaching the square, they surrounded Tyrant Blood and Red Eye Black Dragon, gradually forming a group of two to three hundred people, occupying a quarter of the square.
When the Sky Slash guild members saw the Tyrant Blood guild, many of them turned red with anger, as the "Forum Incident" was still fresh in their minds.
They all clenched their fists, eager for the guild leader to give the order to crush the opposition.
The Sky Slash guild members began to taunt and show aggression towards the Tyrant Blood guild.
Decepticon suggested to Sky Slash Sword, "Boss, should we strike first to break Tyrant Blood’s spirit?"
"No need," Sky Slash Sword replied calmly. "The initiative to summon the boss is in their hands. Let’s focus on securing the boss first, then we can deal with them."
"Understood, Boss," Decepticon replied, brandishing his green-quality greatsword in a show of force.
Tyrant Blood ignored Decepticon’s actions.
He knew his people were no match for the Sky Slash guild and tried to rein in his subordinates to avoid provoking the already sensitive nerves of the Sky Slash guild.
In the square, the two guilds formed two distinct groups, with a clear dividing line between them.
Neither side made a move, but they stood in hostile opposition to each other.
Thanks to Murong Suxue for the 233 reward!
