Chapter 182 - Sword Emperor's Interceptors
“So that’s your reason for ditching Mo Shenbing?”
Xie Changkong’s tone was a bit icy.
He kept tabs on the movements of the Twelve Gods.
However, Qian Shanxue going to Furywind City wasn’t a big deal compared to his own credibility.
“Master, you don’t understand. This skeleton is very powerful. Have you seen Falling Stars Splitting the Sky?”
“Of course I have. It’s a minor archer trick, nothing special.”
“I know that, Master. Falling Stars Splitting the Sky is nothing special to an elder like you.”
Blood Dancer said excitedly, “But have you ever seen a Falling Stars Splitting the Sky that shoots over 500 arrows simultaneously?”
“Shooting over 500 arrows simultaneously?”
In the distant White Tiger City, one of the four major capitals…
Xie Changkong suddenly stopped pressing the button to enter the dungeon.
“You’re not joking, are you?”
“Master, would I dare joke with you?”
“It seems Qian Shanxue has improved again.”
Xie Changkong gestured for his other club members to prepare. He didn’t pay any more attention to Blood Dancer.
Qian Shanxue was his formidable opponent. Although it was hard to believe, her reaching this level wasn’t that surprising to Xie Changkong.
After all, entering the dungeon to quickly reach level 30 was more important.
“Let’s go in. A Silly Cutie leading the team to break the record again is probably trying to create momentum for establishing a guild later.”
“Xia Dongli has also reached level 30. Although his ranking dropped to 10th place, there are signs he’s given up on fighting for the number one spot and shifted his focus to establishing the first guild.”
Xie Changkong flipped the Rock-Cleaving Sword in his hand and continued,
“This isn’t a good sign.”
“The first guild is a critical position that military strategists must compete for. The glory of continuing the legacy of my Temple should not be given to anyone else, not even the prestige of establishing the first guild.”
“The dungeon record can never take away the glory of being the first guild. Next, establishing the first guild will be the most watched event.”
He waved his hand, calling over a butler-like lifestyle player. “Fu’an, are the people you arranged in place?”
“Young Master, it’s been arranged. She won’t reach the City Lord’s Manor.”
“Good, I’m still very reassured by how you handle matters.”
Xie Changkong waved his hand, preparing to enter the dungeon.
However, the subsequent messages from Blood Dancer made him exit again, his expression turning much more solemn.
“Master, that group Falling Stars Splitting the Sky wasn’t used by Qian Shanxue alone, but together with that black skeleton I mentioned!”
“Their coordination was excellent!”
“That black skeleton is amazing. He not only calculated the landing points of all 500 arrows in advance, but he also predicted the movements of the 172 Desert Mad Wolves. He even figured out exactly when they would use Blood Devour and when they would go berserk and pounce at us. He’s truly incredible!”
“I’m telling you, Master, this black skeleton is really powerful. His weapon can transform into various forms, and he has a cloak, wings, and a secondary weapon too!”
“Moreover, he knows all sorts of techniques like 7th order linking, spell deprivation and such. When fighting monsters, his control is very steady, his predictions are exceptionally accurate, and he can perfectly grasp the rhythm. He was able to guess all our exact strengths. Especially his damage output, it’s really godlike.”
Blood Dancer said a whole bunch, but Xie Changkong only focused on the last sentence!
Damage!
This black skeleton was A Silly Cutie’s quest NPC. The actions he arranged this time would definitely lead to PK!
Then…
“Fu’an! Who is leading the interceptors you arranged this time?”
“Young Master, it’s…Luo Beiming from the Beiluo Guild, the former…Sword Emperor.”
Fu’an was a bit fearful, not understanding why Xie Changkong suddenly called him back. Even his voice trembled a little.
“Heh, so it’s him. This Sword Emperor, using a name like that? The person is already dead, yet he still wants to flog a dead corpse?”
