Hu Die Lan
Chapter 391 Still Running!
Jiang You made a clear assessment of the situation and had a definite plan. He simply let go and formed a temporary alliance with Ye Qiu, completely going to war with his former allies. What about Blue Brook Guild? Similarly, Chun Yi Lao, who had years of experience in internal strife, easily deduced the direction of the situation and came to the same conclusion as Jiang You.
The guild leaders of the two major guilds were both worried that this matter would affect the overall situation of their guilds. But the two overall leaders both accurately judged that such intense conflicts were not a good strategy in the current Glory landscape, especially with a great god like Ye Qiu attempting to rise strongly in the online game. The impact this would create could be seen from the sorry state of the guilds in the tenth server when they were pioneering.
Although the major guilds had a solid foundation in the Realm of Gods that they didn't have in the tenth server, Ye Qiu would also have a high level of popularity in the Realm of Gods that he didn't have in the tenth server. This opponent absolutely had to be guarded against in every way, so how could they create an opportunity for him?
It was after weighing these pros and cons that the two guild leaders were able to confidently instruct the elites of the tenth server to cooperate with Ye Qiu.
"Understood." After hearing the instructions, everyone immediately acted according to the strategy. They no longer stuck to one area to level up as usual, but began to roam around the vast leveling area. The difference between the two guilds was that Tyrannical Ambition acted collectively, while Blue Brook Guild did not require this, still allowing everyone to do as they pleased. Those who liked to team up still leveled up in teams, while Lan He, who liked to practice his skills alone, still stuck to a water area.
He didn't wander around.
He deeply admired Chun Yi Lao's final analysis and decision, but he wasn't too interested. He felt tired even listening to the calculations and designs going back and forth, let alone thinking about them. He inexplicably remembered the days when he mixed in with the Xingxin Guild, taking care of those Glory novices like a nanny, but without so much scheming, it seemed simpler and more enjoyable.
"Sigh..." Lan He didn't know why he was sighing, but he was listlessly clearing the little monsters at hand.
*What about the others?* Lan He thought to himself. He had been practicing for a while, but he hadn't received any news, so he guessed that nothing had happened for the time being. Otherwise, whether he was killed or discovered a target, he would relay the information to Lord Grim.
How would this end up? Lan He turned his thoughts back to this, and his attacks slowed down absentmindedly. Suddenly, he heard a rush of water. Although his water combat experience was ordinary, he knew that the sound was abnormal. With his years of gaming experience, Lan He instantly became tense and quickly maneuvered his character to flip over in the water, only to see a string of bullets streak past him. He dodged the first string, but the next few hit him squarely. In the water, few players could flexibly dodge attacks.
The blood that burst out from the bullets instantly diffused and faded in the water. Lan He had already turned his character around and saw a Sharpshooter player standing in the water behind him, the muzzle still pointed at him.
"People from Herb Garden," Lan He recognized them just by looking at their names, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't want to go looking for others, but others came looking for him, and it seemed like they wouldn't let him go.
However, since the other party was intent on killing, it was impossible for only one person to come. These elites of theirs were evenly matched in terms of skill, whether on land or in water. Lan He was known as one of the five great experts of Blue Brook Guild, and his level was indeed quite outstanding among players. The other party wouldn't be so confident as to think that they could take him down with a sneak attack and a preemptive strike, especially since they were old rivals from Herb Garden.
Lan He calmly thought about it and didn't rush to counterattack the Sharpshooter. Maintaining his movement, turning his perspective, and observing all around in the water, he found that, as he expected, there were a full four people. Among them was even the leader of the tenth server of Herb Garden, Che Qianzi. While Lan He was distracted, the four had quietly approached. The Sharpshooter dared to attack because the four believed that Lan He had nowhere to escape.
A message flashed, and Lan He opened it to see a smile from Che Qianzi. Lan He was too lazy to talk to this guy. He flipped his character and rushed towards Che Qianzi.
Confident, Che Qianzi wasn't flustered at all. He didn't come up to meet the enemy, but retreated slowly while watching the other three continue to approach.
Lan He was also constantly paying attention to his surroundings. He didn't have the confidence to take down Che Qianzi in three or two moves. The three were not far away, and the Sharpshooter was constantly attacking and holding him back. If Che Qianzi delayed him slightly, he would be dead if they surrounded him. Che Qianzi obviously understood this. Retreating was just to stall for time, not to keep his distance from Lan He. Seeing his three companions approaching, he stopped retreating and began to wave the broom in his hand, stirring up the water.
Lan He, who had been rushing fiercely for a long time, didn't attack when he got close. Suddenly, he changed direction, sank his character, and swam towards the deeper water.
Seeing this, Che Qianzi quickly threw down a Lava Potion. When used on land, the Lava Potion would spread out a sea of fire on the ground; but when used in the water, it was a different scene. The molten lava that flowed out of the broken bottle couldn't ignite the water, but it constantly evaporated the lake water and churned out bubbles. At the same time, it was scattered by the water and floated everywhere, polluting a body of water like garbage. If a player's character touched these molten lava without flames, they would still take damage.
Lan He was of course clear about this, but with his skills, it was too difficult for him to pass through this water without touching the scattered lava. Lan He didn't want to waste time because of this obstacle, so he simply endured the damage and rushed directly into this dirty-looking water.
Che Qianzi had already swam down to chase after throwing the Lava Potion. The skills he released naturally did no damage to himself. Seeing Lan He rush into the water while taking damage, he shook his arm and threw out a Dark Night Cloak, wanting to trap Lan He.
But Lan He wasn't just running away. He was always watching Che Qianzi's actions. Seeing Che Qianzi chasing, he used his skill at the same time as he rushed into the water.
Che Qianzi had just thrown out the cloak when he saw a sword light flash out from the water. It was too late to dodge, and he was hit squarely by the Sword Draw's sword energy, tumbling several times in the water.
Che Qianzi was depressed. He didn't see this sword at all... Why? Because the water was filled with bubbles constantly rising from the Lava Potion he threw out, obstructing his vision.
As a result, Lan He rushed out of the water, seeming to be covered in black molten lava. But his swimming speed didn't slow down at all.
"Chase!" Che Qianzi郁闷地队伍里招呼了一声,四人齐追上去。
"You can't escape," Che Qianzi sent a message to Lan He while raising his character towards the surface of the water. As a Witch, the broom's flying ability gave him a greater speed advantage on the water than a Launcher's aerial artillery. He was confident that he could intercept Lan He again.
Lan He still ignored Che Qianzi's message. Seeing him rush towards the surface, he understood his intention and immediately changed direction again.
When Che Qianzi reached the surface, his vision of the water was very limited. He could only listen to the directions of the three people still chasing in the water. Lan He was constantly changing direction underwater, and the three had to constantly call out to Che Qianzi. Sending messages always took a little time. After a while, Che Qianzi didn't know how far he had been left behind. He could only wait for Lan He to surface to see clearly.
"Almost there. Don't you want to come up for some air?" Che Qianzi leisurely sent a message to Lan He again, believing that it was only a matter of time before he killed Lan He.
"Coming," Lan He replied unexpectedly this time. As soon as the message landed, half of his body emerged from the water. The ID above his head was none other than Lan He.
Seeing this, Che Qianzi jumped up to the surface and charged over on his broom. As soon as he surfaced, Lan He found Che Qianzi and watched his approach while swimming frantically.
"Still running!" Che Qianzi shouted on the surface of the water, throwing magic missiles at Lan He as he fell off his broom, trying to stop him.
But Lan He still ignored the damage and single-mindedly swam away. The other three players from Herb Garden had also surfaced one after another. They didn't have much of a speed advantage over Lan He in swimming. They had been chasing in the water for so long, but the distance remained the same. As soon as the Sharpshooter reached the surface, he used the aerial gun technique, which was not as fast as aerial artillery, but at least faster than swimming players.
"Still running!"
"Still running!"
"Still running!"
Che Qianzi shouted every time he had the chance to throw a magic missile, having a great time. The Tiny Herb and Blue Rain guilds were deadly enemies like Excellent Era and Tyranny, and their guilds were naturally at odds in the game. Lan He was naturally one of Che Qianzi's most hated opponents. He felt extremely happy being able to chase and beat him like this.
Although magic missiles were small skills, they still whittled away Lan He's health. Che Qianzi, who had a speed advantage, had already caught up. He was still a little reluctant. He felt that it would be fun to keep throwing magic missiles like that. Was it necessary to hold back Lan He and swarm him?
This wasn't hesitation. It was just Che Qianzi's last thought before catching up to Lan He. At the same time, he threw out a Dark Night Cloak, preparing to trap Lan He. But Lan He flipped over and plunged into the water, just barely dodging the Dark Night Cloak.
"This guy is really wasting time," Che Qianzi said helplessly. "You guys keep an eye on him."
"Yes," the three replied, maintaining their directions and diving into the water together.
"I said, is this fun for you? Where can you run to?" Che Qianzi sent a message to Lan He.
"Almost there," Lan He replied.
"What?" Che Qianzi was at a loss.
Another message flashed. Che Qianzi opened it, and the three in the water sent the same message at the same time: "Lord Grim!!!!" (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in for more chapters, support the author, and support original works!)
