Chapter 1 The Beginning

There were nine people in total, all from Triumph. One warrior had held back the Boar Leader, a priest was responsible for healing, a thief was nowhere to be seen, and the other six were staring intently at Knight's Elegy and his group, the tension palpable. Of these six, there were three mages, one Berserker, and two paladins.

The leader on the other side was a Berserker named Kuodao, about thirty years old, with a plump figure, beady triangular eyes, and a hooked nose, making him rather unpleasant to look at.

Berserker Kuodao narrowed his triangular eyes, smiling obsequiously as he said, "Friends on the other side, our thief discovered this Boar Leader first and has been watching it for a long time. We are Triumph, so please forgive us if we have offended you in any way."

"Damn, he's talking like we stole their monster!" Gan Zhe immediately shouted.

"Tch, you steal our monster and still want to act like the good guy? No such easy thing. So what if you're Triumph!" The other members of the team also yelled.

These words reached Kuodao's ears, and a fierce murderous aura emanated from his triangular eyes as he chuckled darkly, "So, what do you want?"

"Give us back the Boar Leader!" Gan Zhe said angrily.

Knight's Elegy, however, had calmed down. They were outnumbered, and their equipment wasn't as good as the opponent's. If a conflict really broke out, they would definitely suffer. Moreover, the executive guild leader had repeatedly warned them to focus on leveling up and get their levels up first, as the guild had plenty of good equipment.

"Gan Zhe, let's go. A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late," Knight's Elegy said to Gan Zhe and the others.

"Just let it go like this?" Gan Zhe frowned, unable to bear such stifling anger. Especially since these were Triumph, who had killed so many of their guild members? Everyone had a temper.

"Consider yourselves lucky that you know what's good for you. Next time you go out, remember to recognize the guild emblem. When you see Triumph, get out of here," Kuodao said, seeing that Knight's Elegy and the others were about to leave, believing that Knight's Elegy and his group were afraid, and became even more unscrupulous.

Knight's Elegy raised an eyebrow. Even a clay figure had some anger. After thinking for a moment, he realized that they couldn't beat the opponent in terms of numbers or equipment, so fighting them head-on would definitely be a loss. So, he opened the group chat.

"Are there any members of the Niuren Tribe (Bull God Tribe) in You'an Canyon (Gloomy Canyon)?"

"I'm in You'an Canyon. What's up?" A player in the guild replied.

Knight's Elegy explained what happened when they encountered Triumph stealing their monster in You'an Canyon, saying, "We want to take down those Triumph guys, but we don't have enough people!"

Soon, the guild group chat was filled with replies.

"Knight, where are you?"

"Give us the coordinates, we'll beat those sons of bitches!"

"I'm in You'an Canyon!"

"We're heading back immediately, f*ck Triumph!"

"I'm in Huoguang Town (Firelight Town)! Heading there immediately!"

Having been bullied by Triumph for too long, the Niuren Tribe's anger was instantly ignited, and the replies filled the entire screen.

"No, no, no, don't all come, a dozen or so people is enough to deal with them." Knight's Elegy was startled. He hadn't expected that his message in the group chat would be answered by at least several hundred people, and they were all representatives of various teams, with thousands of people behind them! If so many people came, You'an Canyon would be packed!

From the passionate replies of these guild members, Knight's Elegy truly felt the enthusiasm of his guild brothers, and in that instant, he felt a strong sense of belonging to the guild.

A strong desire arose in Knight's heart to make the Niuren Tribe even stronger and crush those damn Triumph bastards!

"Everyone don't all go, a dozen or so of us will be enough to dismember those bastards!"

"Knight, tell us the coordinates quickly!"

"You'an Canyon 285,283,3809."

"I know these coordinates. It's the northern area of You'an Canyon. We can be there in three minutes at most!"

"Brothers who can't get there in five minutes, don't bother going!"

Knight's Elegy and Gan Zhe exchanged a smile. With these enthusiastic brothers, they suddenly felt confident. F*ck Triumph, who's afraid of them!

"So what if you're Triumph? We're the Niuren Tribe!"

"Remember your grandpa's face!" Gan Zhe didn't hold back at all.

Kuodao's face darkened instantly. Potianda (Sky Breaker), the guild leader, had posted an announcement in the guild: if you see members of the Niuren Tribe, kill them!

"Niuren Tribe, you grandsons who don't even dare to wear your guild emblems when you go out, we were just worried about not being able to find you, but you came to our door yourselves!"

"Grandpa is right here!"

The atmosphere became tense. The Triumph warrior was still hacking away at the Boar Leader, and another mage was also dealing damage to the Boar Leader. Kuodao and the others didn't dare to be too careless. They still had to deal with the Boar Leader. If Knight's Elegy and the others attacked first, they would be caught in a pincer attack, making it difficult for them to defend.

The Boar Leader's health was dropping slowly, little by little. After about two minutes, it had only lost one-third of its health.

Knight's Elegy and the others deliberately dragged out the time. Whenever Kuodao and the others wanted to focus on dealing damage to the Boar Leader, Knight's Elegy and the others would make a threatening move, forcing Kuodao and the others to defend.

The Boar Leader's health slowly decreased, one-fourth, one-fifth, one-sixth, it was already in the red!

"Let's kill the Boar Leader first, then deal with these Niuren Tribe bastards!" Kuodao said in the team chat. The surrounding mages blasted the Boar Leader with magic, and a series of damage numbers floated above the Boar Leader's head.

The Boar Leader's health was about to run out, and Knight's Elegy and the others were getting anxious. If the Boar Leader died, the equipment would definitely be stolen!

For them, even bronze equipment dropped by the Boar Leader was rare, as it was level fifteen equipment. What they were currently wearing was still level ten bronze equipment, with only Knight's Elegy's equipment being slightly better.

"Priest, focus on healing me!" Knight's Elegy shouted in the team, then charged towards the Boar Leader.

"That kid wants to steal the equipment!" "Kill him!"

Spells shot straight at Knight's Elegy, instantly taking away nearly half of his health. The priest behind him quickly cast a heal on him.

Knight's Elegy drank a bottle of Beginner Instant Recovery, rushing towards the Boar Leader.

"They attacked first, we can act in self-defense!" Gan Zhe shouted.

Behind him, Gan Zhe and the other elemental mage shot spells at the Triumph players.

Kuodao and two paladins charged towards Gan Zhe and the others, while the other three Triumph mages focused their fire on Knight's Elegy.

"Slice and dice these trash!" Kuodao used Charge, lunging at Gan Zhe.

Knight's Elegy charged to a place not far from the Boar Leader. Seeing that the Boar Leader had only a sliver of health left and was about to be killed by the opposing shield warrior, he suddenly had an idea and cast a Damage Absorption on the Boar Leader.

A faint white barrier appeared on the Boar Leader.

The shield warrior struck with his sword, and a -1 damage number appeared above the Boar Leader's head. He was stunned.

The Boar Leader roared, suddenly erupting and swinging its flail, striking the shield warrior's shield. The shield warrior was knocked back a few steps, feeling dizzy.

"Well done!" Knight's Elegy was overjoyed, only a few yards away from the Boar Leader. He used a small dispel, dispelling the Damage Absorption on the Boar Leader, and slashed his longsword at the Boar Leader, who let out a wail and fell.

"Damn, Knight's Elegy is divinely inspired." Gan Zhe hadn't expected Knight to react so quickly, snatching the Boar Leader's experience with a stroke of genius.

Knight's Elegy felt an exhilarating rush, unlike anything he had ever felt before. Just as he was about to bend down to pick up the equipment on the ground, the shield warrior charged up.

"Kill that paladin who's stealing the equipment!" The arcane mage behind him shouted, arcane fireballs flying towards him.

Hamstring!

The shield warrior slashed down.

Perhaps it was intuition, or perhaps he was blessed by the god of luck, but Knight's Elegy actually guessed that the shield warrior was going to hamstring him and used Parry.

With a clang, the two swords collided.

The shield warrior let out a roar, Demoralizing Shout!

His momentum was like a rainbow!

Knight's Elegy cast a buff on himself, directly ignoring the Demoralizing Shout cast by the shield warrior, knocking him aside, and reached out to grab the equipment on the ground.

He got it!

Knight's Elegy was ecstatic, and he ran away, taking advantage of the speed boost from Righteous Fury, sprinting away.

"Stop him!"

Boom, boom, boom, three spells exploded on Knight's Elegy, instantly leaving him with only five or six health points.

"Douzi, heal! Heal quickly!" Knight's Elegy shouted, turning his head to look back, his anger soaring. He found that of his five teammates, only Gan Zhe and another elemental mage were left, and they also had low health.

Kuodao used a Wild Blade Strike, the powerful sword energy killing the elemental mage next to Gan Zhe. He had killed two people in a row, and his name had turned red.

Gan Zhe, with only a few dozen health points left, was also running away.

Knight's Elegy could feel a thief behind him, getting closer and closer.

"You want to run? Not so easy!"

Kuodao and the others pursued relentlessly, chasing after Knight's Elegy and his group.

"Niuren Tribe bastards, why don't you be more arrogant!" Kuodao cursed. His equipment had been stolen, and his name had turned red. He was like an enraged lion, feeling an urge to kill someone.

Just as Kuodao was about to use Charge to kill Knight's Elegy, he saw dense crowds of people appear on the nearby high ground.

There were over a hundred people, and the number was still increasing, with various classes and equipment, and a surging crowd.

"Who are they!" Kuodao paused.

"Kuodao, run! It's the Niuren Tribe!" The nearby members shouted.

Kuodao felt a sinking feeling in his heart. His name was red. If he was killed, he would lose at least two levels and all his equipment would be dropped.

"Knight, we're here!" Someone shouted from the hundreds of players.

"Kill all those Triumph bastards, don't let them run!"

Dozens of Niuren Tribe shield warriors and berserkers activated Charge, rushing down from the high ground like arrows.

Kill!

Kill all the Triumph people!

Behind them, sixty or seventy Niuren Tribe mages lit up with the light of various magical elements, and waves of spells flew into the sky, screaming as they fell.
