Chapter 132 Team

Han Family's Young Master's deployment targeting each person's characteristics was meticulous, but the group at Colorful Clouds, led by Shui Wuhen, were truly uncertain. Because this confrontation had a significant difference. They called it a thirty-person squad, but since Little Lei Tavern was only a level one guild, with a maximum of fifty people, evenly divided into ten squads, each squad only had five people. One squad even had only four people, which the captain had specifically noted when selecting members.

In actual combat, only these people could launch attacks. The others remained neutral players. Attacking city-guarding players would be treated as a hostile action by the system and they would be eliminated.

As a result, although it was said to be a team of thirty, only five were attackers. Among the other twenty-five, priests were the most useful, followed by knights, while other classes were unsure how to coordinate in this situation. No one had ever played this way before.

However, because the commander-in-chief was Han Family's Young Master, everyone would rather die a few times than ask him for advice. So, everyone discussed this problem in their team channels while scattering in different directions.

Where could they find Reborn Purple Crystal or Exceptionally Heaven-Defying people?

Han Family's Young Master had already answered this question: "Those people will appear where there are quests." Now that the fifty people from Colorful Clouds were also city-guarding players, they could also receive quests. So, everyone should pay close attention near the NPCs with quests.

In the end, the nine teams departed. The remaining thirty people were very depressed. Not only were they the ones who were left behind, but their captain would be Han Family's Young Master, truly a double whammy. However, none of these thirty people were well-known. It was conceivable that they were all taciturn and introverted characters in the guild. So, although they felt uncomfortable, they didn't show it on their faces and quietly stood in front of the guild hall, ready to listen to Han Family's Young Master's arrangements.

"Alright, the main use of our team is guild quests!" Han Family's Young Master finally spoke.

"What?" The thirty people were stunned.

"Currently, the guild is level one. Our goal is to quickly advance the guild to level two, increasing the limit to 150 people. Currently, we only have 50 attackers. In the early stages, it might not matter, but when opponents realize our existence and start to gather together, 50 people will be somewhat stretched. Therefore, upgrading the guild to level two is very necessary," Han Family's Young Master said.

"But... but only four of us here are from Little Lei Tavern," someone asked, puzzled.

Han Family's Young Master nodded, "I know. Thirty people divided into four groups is exactly four teams with all professions equipped. The quests will be taken by the four of you. Choose the fastest and most efficient ones. Just upgrading to a level two guild isn't very difficult."

The people from Colorful Clouds nodded, this wasn't false. Guild level upgrades were like player level upgrades, the further you go, the more experience required. Of course, the things accumulated for guild upgrades weren't called experience, but guild prestige, mainly obtained by completing guild quests. What limited the leveling speed of high-level guilds was, firstly, the excessive amount of prestige required, relying on repeatable trivial quests was extremely tiring. Secondly, the guild hall only announced so many guild quests each day, and the well-paid guild quests couldn't be repeatedly received, the system randomly refreshing them every twenty-four hours. In this way, even large guilds had to rely on luck to grab them.

There were also some quests that didn't limit guild level, but small guilds simply didn't have the strength to complete them, but small guilds still grabbed them anyway. Large guilds had posted a lot on forums and other places to condemn this behavior. But most guilds remained stubborn, even if I can't complete it, I'll take it and hang it there.

Some time ago, a small guild in a certain city had its secrets exposed. This guild didn't know if it was too virtuous or what, but it frequently received large quests, but it didn't have the strength to complete them itself and couldn't afford to hire people. In the end, the guild had a total of 27 large quests that large guilds were eager to get. After this matter was exposed by a former member of the guild, all the large guilds in the main city were furious and have been targeting this small guild ever since, demanding that the system take measures against this bad behavior. The system also expressed great importance and promised to introduce some update measures in the near future.

Guild level upgrades, after countless tearful and heroic stories, have now become mundane. All guilds that have become regular have stipulated how many trivial quests each guild member needs to complete every day, in order to at least ensure that the guild is not stagnant, and large quests ultimately have to rely on luck to fight for.

But at this time, there were only three guilds in Cloudsoar City. There would be no competitors for guild quests. Thirty top guild elites could take on some high-difficulty, high-reward quests to complete. In this way, making a level one guild level two was indeed a very easy and quick thing. Otherwise, relying on brushing trivial quests... this guild wasn't their own, it was just a temporary loan setting, players might not be willing to do such disgusting things as brushing trivial quests.

Han Family's Young Master explained all these aspects to the thirty people clearly. The thirty people heard this and felt that upgrading from level one to level two was really an easy task at this time. Then they went into the guild hall and saw that the quests were still being released as usual. Many large quests were hanging there lonely and unclaimed, making these players from large guilds drool, all fantasizing about how great it would be if Colorful Clouds could enter the city and do quests.

"Hurry up and seize the time!" Han Family's Young Master stopped the four guys from drooling and fantasizing and told them to choose quests quickly.

The four were also skilled in this area. Under the long list of quests, the four chose the four most cost-effective ones and then hurried off to claim their quests. Players without a guild couldn't claim quests, but it didn't prevent them from completing quests. However, these guild quests might not be completed in the city, but entering and leaving the main city was actually not difficult for neutral and city-guarding players.

Gu Fei and Fireball easily mixed out of the city again. The whole city was shouting to kill Qian Li Zui, but unfortunately, Qian Li Zui had walked past many people countless times, and no one remembered. Parallel World players had no photography, screenshot, or video recording functions. Even the most awesome characters were just legends. If you wanted to know what they looked like, you had no choice but to see them in person. At this time, the major guilds in Cloudsoar City, who hated Qian Li Zui to the bone, came up with a brilliant idea. They wanted to find a player who was a painter to draw Qian Li Zui's appearance and then announce it to the whole city. But then they thought about it again, people might not remember it after just one glance, and if they wanted everyone to have a copy, the painter's hands would be broken. So, this brilliant idea was temporarily shelved.

After leaving the main city, Gu Fei really contacted Xi Yao Wu. Fireball was very excited, but Gu Fei's thoughts were of course different from his. Gu Fei was still不死(bù sǐ - unwilling to give up), still thinking about wiping them all out in one fell swoop, and wanted to go to the site to investigate.

Xi Yao Wu gave the coordinates, and Gu Fei and Fireball headed there.

Cloud Suburb Farm, a low-level leveling area, there were some neutral players leveling at this time, but the most conspicuous were still the figures of the many guild leaders in the large cabbage fields in the farm, standing together with the cabbage in an orderly manner, each one appearing so outstanding.

Gu Fei took a rough look and found that the defenses were indeed tight. The guild leaders were in the circle with the cabbage, and four hundred elite troops from the four major guilds were outside the circle, looking around vigilantly.

Gu Fei circled around to observe, but didn't find any openings. Fireball didn't have the guild leaders in his eyes, he was just concerned about the question of "Where's Sister Xi, where's Sister Xi?". Xi Yao Wu finally appeared, and from this it could be seen that Xi Yao Wu was actually not as arrogant as Gu Fei. She and Liu Xia were at least still in stealth, unlike Gu Fei and Fireball who were swaggering around so openly.

"Too rampant," Xi Yao Wu saw that Gu Fei wasn't hiding at all, and immediately revealed her true form. After despising him first, she said happily, "Xiao Liu and I got a little closer and listened. Eight out of ten people were scolding you, how exciting."

"The pressure is great," Gu Fei said.

"But there really aren't any opportunities here," it was rare for Xi Yao Wu to admit defeat.

"I think so too," Gu Fei nodded.

Gu Fei and Fireball didn't fight monsters, they just circled around the cabbage field, which had long attracted the attention of the four hundred guys. At this time, the two stopped, and then two people appeared from stealth and whispered to each other, it was really too suspicious. Moreover, Xi Yao Wu didn't change her equipment like Gu Fei, her fiery red thief outfit was very eye-catching. The four hundred began to lean in to observe, and when they saw this girl's graceful figure, they suddenly remembered someone: "Damn, isn't this Xi Yao Wu?!"

"Send the message quickly, assassins are here!!!" The message quickly spread among the four hundred people, followed by a report to the four major guild leaders. The four major guild leaders then told the other seven hundred guild leaders. The guild leaders were agitated and stood up one after another, destroying an unknown number of cabbages in an instant.

The four hundred guards had been lonely for a long time. Although they knew that the other party was Xi Yao Wu, they were not afraid. They had long discussed how to deal with assassins. At this time, seeing that the four of them seemed to be still plotting, they felt that they should secretly surround them and destroy them in one fell swoop. But the drawback of the self-selected venue, Cloud Suburb Farm, now fell on their own heads: the field of vision was too vast, and there was no way to act secretly. They organized several teams to disperse, and Gu Fei and the others noticed.

"They've noticed us, let's go," Liu Xia said.

"Yeah!" Gu Fei nodded, not wanting to fight. He didn't look down on the ordinary players' discussions. He believed that after suffering so many losses at his hands, they wouldn't create conditions for him to achieve the miracle of fighting hundreds of people again.

The four ran away, Xi Yao Wu was the fastest, turning around and disappearing. Gu Fei was the second fastest, teleporting from time to time, jumping and jumping. Liu Xia was more ordinary, but not too slow, after all, he was a thief. Fireball was tragic, an orthodox great mage, weak body, short legs, robe dragging on the ground, one foot in a pit, and in a short time his companions disappeared, and the people behind all caught up. Fireball cried and quickly messaged Gu Fei: "Brother Zui, I can't run away."

"Oh, then die!" Gu Fei said calmly.

"No loyalty!" Fireball cried.

"It's not like you can't live after you die," Gu Fei was very rational.

Fireball was depressed! Regretful! He suddenly remembered a joke. A parrot and a pig were on a plane together. The parrot was very manly, glaring and arrogant, scolding anyone he saw, and had a great sense of presence. The pig was very envious, so he imitated it. Later, the people on the plane couldn't bear it any longer and threw the parrot and the pig out of the plane together. The pig was about to fall to his death when the parrot flew past him: "You're a fool, right? I can fly!" Fireball realized at this time that he was the pig. He learned everything from others, and now the people ran away, and he left his life here.

But the pig also had the pig's wisdom, he couldn't just sit and wait for death. Fireball found a wheat field in front of him and dived in without hesitation.

The guild side saw that the four targets, one after another, had run away, leaving only a mage who was slowly refusing to run, as if mocking them, and were all very angry. At this time, Fireball dived into the wheat field, and everyone could see it even more clearly. They immediately organized people to pounce on it.

"Wait, be careful of a trap," a rational player would always speak when the plot took a turn.

The wheat field was half a person high, and if a short person drilled into it, they couldn't be seen from the outside. A gust of wind passed by, and the wheat field swayed in waves, like the sea, deep and bottomless, with hidden dangers. Everyone nodded: indeed there was a trap, they almost fell for it.

"What are you afraid of? We'll take care of it together if there's an ambush!" There were still豪迈(háo mài - bold and generous) guys, calling out a few brothers to go in. After all, the four hundred corps came from four guilds, and they usually didn't get along with each other. As soon as they saw different opinions, their own guild had to stand on this side. Other guilds felt that there shouldn't be a quarrel in the face of a common enemy. If he thought there wasn't, let him go, and we'll watch the show from the side.

"Actually, why do we have to go in? The wind is so strong and the grass is so dry, we can use fire," someone suddenly said.

"Fire?" Everyone knew how to use fire magic in the game, but today someone actually proposed the concept of fire attack. Everyone reminisced about the era of brilliant fire in the Three Kingdoms.

"That's right, no matter if there's an ambush or not, we'll set a fire in it along the wind," this person said confidently.

"Seems like a good idea!" More people began to support it.

"Fire attack, fire attack!!" More and more people responded, and everyone began to get busy. The fire magic skills of mages burned mana, which was different from natural burning phenomena, so it was not very effective as a lighter. Everyone took out their fire-making tools in the game, stood in the direction of the wind in the wheat field, and looked forward with focused expressions, waiting for the order to be given.

"Light!" With a shout, the players lit their fires one after another, but the lack of common sense in the lives of game宅男(zhái nán - otaku) was evident from this. How much water did this naturally growing plant contain? Even if this wheat field looked yellow, it wasn't枯黄(kū huáng - withered yellow). Wanting to light it with a match, wasn't this a joke?

A bunch of people lit their fires, but none of them caught fire. The magnificent sight of a single spark setting a prairie ablaze did not appear at all.

"We need a more powerful source of fire," someone said.

So some people went to pick up dry firewood and枯草(kū cǎo - withered grass), but most people didn't use it. Because they suddenly felt that they seemed to be doing something very insulting to their IQ...

Fireball didn't stop for a single step in the wheat field, and almost crawled through the wheat field along the waves of wheat. After drilling out, he looked back and was stunned. The players of the four major guilds were all at the other end of the wheat field, not knowing what they were doing. Why was no one chasing him?

"What are you still dazing for? Run!" Suddenly another person drilled out of the wheat field. Fireball was startled and was about to attack, but suddenly realized that the person who drilled out was Gu Fei.

"Brother Zui, why are you here?" Fireball said.

"Nonsense, am I really going to leave you alone?" Gu Fei said.

"Strange, why don't they chase after us?" Xi Yao Wu also came out of the wheat field. They saw Fireball entering the wheat field and hurried over to meet him. In this environment, they could carry out many good assassinations, but they didn't expect the people from the four major guilds to stop outside the wheat field and not chase after them. Gu Fei only regretted chasing Fireball out.

"They probably recognized me," Gu Fei said.

"Yes, that must be it!" Fireball quickly flattered him, and Xi Yao Wu pretended to vomit.

"Where's Xiao Liu?" Fireball was always very concerned about girls.

"Waiting in front, let's go!" Gu Fei said. After finishing speaking, the three left. At this end of the wheat field, a marksman finally noticed the situation: "They're over there?"

"Oops, they ran away."

"Damn, there was no ambush in the field at all."

"Bluffing!"

"We fell for it."

"Too cunning."

Everyone was looking for an excuse for themselves. No one mentioned the fire attack. Everyone returned to their original positions. When the guild leaders asked, they all proudly replied: "The assassins have been successfully driven away by us. Don't worry, as long as we are here, they have no chance of succeeding."

Gu Fei and the four left Cloud Suburb Farm and discussed on the way whether there were any opportunities to take advantage of, but there were no new discoveries. After a while, they arrived at the Cloudsoar Lakeside. Fireball was very excited: "Everyone, in order not to cause some disgusting misunderstandings, let's clearly divide into two groups. Brother Zui, you and Sister Xi are a group, and I and Xiao Liu are a group."

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Gu Fei asked.

"Definitely, absolutely, and certainly," Fireball said.

"What if there's a fight? Which of you two will protect?" Gu Fei asked.

"Don't worry, Xiao Liu, I will protect you with my life," Fireball didn't care if they were familiar or not, he could use any words.

"Save it! The four of us will walk together!" Gu Fei said,忍着吐(rěnzhe tù - holding back from vomiting).

Fireball didn't win a two-person world and was very sad.

Cloudsoar Lakeside was always like this, calm on the outside, but enthusiastic like dry firewood and raging fire on the inside. Gu Fei still reminded everyone to be careful not to step on people, and then led everyone towards the small wooden house.

"Guild Leader! They're here, they're here!!!"

"Damn, I've been waiting to die, they're finally here!" Planting Trees Looking at the Sky, who had been lurking at Cloudsoar Lakeside for a long time, and his subordinates were extremely excited when they finally saw Gu Fei and his group appear.

"But there are only four of them, will they be useful?" the subordinate asked, puzzled.

"Don't forget, this is Qian Li Zui!" Planting Trees Looking at the Sky had great expectations for Gu Fei, because he could only have expectations for Qian Li Zui. Apart from him, no one else would come here to disrupt the mission. Planting Trees Looking at the Sky's plan to profit from troubled waters was all riding on Qian Li Zui.
