Hu Die Lan
Chapter 546 The Hunt Ends
Chun Yi Lao opened his mouth with a sneer, and with Zhongcaotang and Baqi Xiong Tu already subtly aware that something was wrong, the others who saw it suddenly realized in an instant: This was bad, very bad.
"Did you all forget something?" Chun Yi Lao asked.
The guild leaders were sweating. Of course, they had forgotten something.
All the guild leaders quickly gathered together to exchange information and then felt extremely regretful that they hadn't done this sooner.
In the Poison Fang Swamp, a large number of people mixed within their guilds were participating in this hunting game, yet they were definitely not sent by them. And clearly, these people would be the ultimate victors, for a simple reason: they had more people.
"Who are they?" After a careful count, the guild leaders were shocked to discover that the characters revealed by this group happened to belong to their five guilds, none missing. It was clearly a premeditated action, coordinating with their infighting to ultimately hunt down all the hunters they had sent into the swamp.
"Quickly send reinforcements, who still has people?" Tian Nan Xing called out anxiously. All his people had been killed and sent back, and he had completely lost track of what was happening in front.
"I still have people here." Jiang You replied, preparing to send the list of names to the players he had sent, telling them to keep an eye out. But before he could finish typing out all the names, the last remaining player from Baqi Xiong Tu regrettably sent a message: He was dead.
Subsequently, the remaining members of Yanyu Lou, Posui Xukong, and Baihua Gu also failed to remain hidden and successively sent reports of their deaths. At this point, all the players sent out by the five guilds had heroically sacrificed themselves. This meant that the whereabouts of the Swamp Hunter Leip had been completely lost. The other party obviously would not stay in the place where they were ultimately exposed, waiting for them to come to their door.
"You two are still fighting! The Boss has been stolen!" The guild leaders were all depressed at this point. Seeing that Samsara and Jiay王朝 were still in the middle of their chaotic battle, they didn't want either of them to feel good. Logically, this Boss should have belonged to these two guilds, so shouldn't they be the most miserable after it was stolen?
"We're not fighting for the Boss, just for pride." In the Samsara guild, a very ordinary member turned his head and coldly replied, then immediately threw himself back into the frenzied battle.
"Damn, you Samsara people can go crazy by yourselves, we're not going to keep you company!" Jiay王朝, which had originally been provoked by Samsara, instantly regained its senses after hearing the words of the guild next to it. This meaningless chaotic battle was truly pointless. So, while exchanging polite words, they instructed their guild members to collect the equipment that had dropped on the ground, clearly adopting a defensive and retreating stance.
The Samsara guild had fought against the two giant guilds, Blue River Pavilion and Jiay王朝, one after the other, and naturally suffered heavy casualties. If they really continued to fight, Jiay王朝 probably had a slightly better chance of winning. But they really didn't want to continue this meaningless attrition, so they took the initiative to retreat first.
The other guilds were all watching the excitement, not minding the trouble at all. They were hoping that Samsara and Jiay王朝 would fight each other to the death, killing each other until equipment was scattered all over the Divine Domain. Normally, such a thing was highly unlikely to happen, but today the Samsara people seemed to have their brains on fire, so who knew what kind of brainless actions they would take at this point?
Jiay王朝 was not at a disadvantage to begin with, but they had already conceded out of rationality. If Samsara still refused to give up, then what kind of scene would that be?
With this expectation, the guild leaders almost forgot the pain of losing the Boss. If they could really cause the two club guilds to fight to the death because they lost a Boss, then the loss would be well worth it.
However, today was clearly not their lucky day. Just when they were hoping that the Samsara guild would not be rational, the Samsara guild happened to become rational again. Seeing that Jiay王朝 was already showing signs of retreating, their people no longer pressed so hard and just continued to put on a show. Jiay王朝 also understood and didn't care too much. They only picked up some of their own equipment that had dropped on the ground. Samsara had dropped a lot of equipment as well, but Jiay王朝 tactfully didn't try to take advantage of the situation.
"Everyone, we, Jiay王朝, will take our leave for now. But there should be an explanation for what happened today." After Jiay王朝 finished cleaning up, the guild leader Chen Yehui came out and coldly said before leaving with his people without turning his head.
"An explanation? What kind of explanation can there be?" The guild leaders were all a little indignant. They had originally wanted to continue sending people into the swamp to investigate the Boss's whereabouts, but they no longer had the mood to do so. With the agreement posted as evidence, it was very likely that someone would use the opportunity to make a big deal out of it. As the guilds that had already lost, it was better not to get involved with this Boss.
"Tch, it's just a Swamp Hunter Leip. Do you really think he's anything special? We're the losers, so whoever wants to kill the Boss can kill him!" Zhongcaotang's Tian Nan Xing also left these words and led his people away.
These few guilds were in similar situations, and in the end, they each gave a few polite words. Everyone really ignored the Swamp Hunter Leip.
In the end, only Blue River Pavilion and Samsara remained. Chun Yi Lao and Sanjie Liudao stood at the head of their respective teams, confronting each other without saying a word.
After a long silence, Chun Yi Lao finally spoke first: "Guild Leader Sanjie, your actions today shouldn't be without some calculation, right?"
"Oh?" Sanjie Liudao's tone did not sound like someone whose brain had been overwhelmed by passion. He calmly responded.
Deep in the Poison Fang Swamp, Wei Chen's Yinfeng Büzhen was leading a team to kill the Swamp Hunter Leip. This wild Boss was naturally difficult to deal with. Generally, guilds would bring a team to kill it. However, although Wei Chen had retired for many years, his life was still inseparable from Glory. He wasn't the kind of old fogey who lost touch with the times after retirement. With his level, he could still manage to command this team of acquaintances to kill the Swamp Hunter Leip; otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged such a formation with Ye Xiu.
"Hai, I told you to go to the right. You're blocking the mage's casting view!"
"Jùtóu, did you come here to freeload? Go up and chop him! If you've got the guts, just OT." (Over-taunt - pull the aggro from the tank)
"Shield Bash! Use Shield Bash! Are you a turtle? All you know is to shrink behind your shield."
Wei Chen's command was also quite violent, with profanity in every sentence. Although he and his brothers had all grown up playing together and were very familiar with each other, it was their first time killing this big Boss, and they were very clumsy.
Fortunately, Wei Chen, a great expert, was controlling the situation from the center. His warlock class was proficient in many control skills. And his level of 70 was also above this wild Boss. Even if the suppression wasn't that significant, at least the skill effects were guaranteed, which was the best possible situation for a controller.
In addition, he and these people were all playing in the same internet cafe, sitting together, and they were extremely skilled at peeking at each other's screens. Wei Chen's command was even more like a fish in water. A bunch of novices were fighting this Swamp Hunter Leip, but they managed to hold on and slowly maintain the situation.
"Move, move, move! That's right, bring him here while fighting. We can't keep staying in that place. Formation! Maintain the formation, damn it, pay attention to the distance between each other, maintain your positions!" Wei Chen's voice barely stopped, obviously not daring to be careless at all. This Boss could be killed, but it was clearly quite difficult and couldn't tolerate any carelessness.
Just as they were fighting intensely, they suddenly caught a glimpse of a few shadows slowly moving over in the swamp. Wei Chen immediately became nervous. If they encountered some strangers at this time, even a few noobs would be enough to make them suffer.
But after seeing the names of the people who came, Wei Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Damn, you scared me to death. Say something, you guys."
The people who came out were the team that Jun Mo Xiao was leading.
Seeing these people, Wei Chen turned from surprise to joy: "Did you solve it?"
"Yeah, I left five people to keep their distance and cover the rear. If the other party still chases after us, they'll be discovered first. Hurry up!"
"Alright, alright, everyone hurry up!" Wei Chen shouted.
So the people Ye Xiu led also joined the battle. Ye Xiu's Jun Mo Xiao was a pitiful level 54, and his attack power against this level 65 wild Boss was really insignificant, so he simply didn't bother getting involved. He showed his face for a brief moment and then disappeared. Anyway, with Wei Chen around, there was no need for him to command, so Ye Xiu continued to lead the crucial rearguard work.
With a few more helpers, Wei Chen could handle the situation more easily. Thinking that he could get the materials he had been looking forward to for a long time after killing this Boss, he was extremely excited.
Seventy percent.
Sixty percent.
Fifty percent.
The Swamp Hunter Leip's health continued to drop, and no one came to cause trouble. Everything seemed to be going smoothly. Just then, a message popped up.
Now that the situation was stable, Wei Chen could take the time to play with the messages. He opened it and saw that it was from Jun Mo Xiao: "Have you finished killing the Boss?"
"There's still half left. What's going on?" Wei Chen immediately became nervous.
"Slow down your output first," Ye Xiu said.
"What's wrong?"
"Is there a benefit?" Ye Xiu replied.
"What benefit?" Wei Chen asked.
"We're trying to get one!" Ye Xiu said.
"Just tell me!" Wei Chen was extremely anxious.
"A guild has approached me, hoping to exchange this Boss for a higher price," Ye Xiu replied.
"What? What does that mean?" Wei Chen was puzzled.
"Hehe, the significance of this Boss now is no longer just about materials or equipment. We've managed to get such a big Boss, and we've encountered such an opportunity, so we have to maximize our profits," Ye Xiu replied.
"Really? Then I'll quickly make a list and have them give me all the materials I need next," Wei Chen replied.
Ye Xiu naturally ignored Wei Chen's message. He just turned Jun Mo Xiao's view back to the two people in front of him.
Chun Yi Lao, Sanjie Liudao, the leaders of the two major guilds.
"You two need to hurry. The Boss is about to go berserk. Once it goes berserk, it will be difficult for us to show mercy. So, what do you think of the list I've made?" Ye Xiu said enthusiastically with a smile.
