Wei Huo and the others started walking up the mountain. The Crawling Dragons noticed them and rushed over. However, before they could reach them, they were killed by Wei Sha, the purple cat, and the rhinoceros.
Wei Huo and the others did not attack. They went up the mountain and arrived at the Dragon’s Nest. They saw five players fighting a Black Dragon there. The five players were wearing Heart Protection Helmets, so the imposing aura of the Epic-ranked Wyvern did not affect them.
However, the main reason was that the Epic creature created by the system was too weak. Its imposing aura was not intense enough.
The five players all had their levels displayed above their heads. The lowest was at Level 205. The physical quality of a Level-200 player was already similar to that of an Epic-ranked expert. Besides, the five players had all reached the Rare rank. However, this Rare rank should have been upgraded by completing quests. In terms of soul strength, they were far from reaching the Rare rank.
Upon seeing the players, Zhou Song said, “I’ve never seen such high-level players in the Northern Continent. There are five of them in the same place at once.”
Xiao Bin said, “I’ve seen a few before, but their levels weren’t that high. The players in the Northern Continent didn’t seem very impressive.”
System Number Two: “…”
Don’t you know why the players in the Northern Continent are at a low level?
Wei Huo said, “The situation in the Northern Continent is different from the situation in other continents. Most of the players in the Northern Continent are casual players now. They have no chance to develop because they are suppressed by humans.”
Wei Huo was right. The players of the Northern Continent were really pitiful. Plus, Wei Huo, Ma Tengyun, and the other Epic-ranked creatures would kill all the demons who dared to attack the city. Their weapons were also very advanced. Demon beasts below the Epic stage were no match for them. This had caused the players of the Northern Continent to have no decent training grounds.
The five players noticed Wei Huo and the others. One of them, who looked like the captain, asked, “What’s going on over there? Why do I see a Level-100 player leading two Level-1 players?”
A player looked over and frowned. “One Level-120 player and two Level-1 players. Where did these newbies come from?”
The captain glanced over and said, “Von Suess, go deal with those three players. Don’t let them cause trouble.”
Von Suess responded by rushing toward Wei Huo and the others. He was holding a huge sword in his hand. Upon seeing Wei Huo and the others, he charged toward them without saying anything.
Zhou Song and Xiao Bin were confused. Why wouldn’t he say anything?
Zhou Song said, “The people of the Western Continent are too direct. They attack just like that.”
Before they could do anything, the purple cat pounced on Von Suess.
“Meow!” The purple cat roared and slashed at the man with its claws. Von Suess sneered. It was a mere Rare-ranked creature… Aiya!
He was slapped and sent flying over 10 meters away. Fortunately, he found his balance.
Von Suess frowned and said in disbelief, “How is that possible? It’s just a Rare-ranked purple cat. Why is it so powerful?”
The purple cat was not weak. It had followed Wei Huo for a long time, eaten spirit fruits, and soaked in spirit springs. Most importantly, it had witnessed countless Epic and Legendary battles. It had been stuck at the Rare rank for a long time because it had not had many actual battles. However, its physique was very strong.
Wei Sha and the rhinoceros were the same. They had followed Wei Huo for a longer time, especially the rhinoceros. Its Bronze Qi-Conducting Skill was at its peak, and its skin was as invulnerable as bronze.
The captain battling the Wyvern looked over and shouted, “Feng Xius, can’t you finish off three newbies?”
Von Suess said, “Captain, these three players are not simple!”
“Roar!” The Wyvern roared. It used this opportunity to rush southeast, but the captain immediately blocked its path. The remaining three players rushed forward.
The captain then roared, “Von Suess, I’ll give you 10 seconds to kill those three players and join the team immediately. If you fail to slay the dragon this time, I’ll personally cripple you!”
Von Suess frowned. He was not an ignorant player, as he had been able to reach Level 200. He had realized how powerful the three of them were after the purple cat had slapped him. At least, the purple cat was powerful.
Von Suess said, “Captain, these Level-100+ players should be Beast Tamers. They are not strong, but their pets are very strong!”
The captain shouted angrily, “You are useless!”
After saying that, the captain waved his hand and summoned a half-step Epic Sword Dragon. The Sword Dragon summoned pounced on Wei Huo and the others.
The Sword Dragon did not have a Heart Protection Helmet and could thus not join the dragon-slaying battlefield.
However, at that moment, the rhinoceros rushed out. The Sword Dragon’s body was three times larger than it. However, the rhinoceros’ horn slammed the Sword Dragon’s head into its chest. Then, the rhinoceros turned around and collided with the half-dead Sword Dragon with its powerful body.
The collision shattered the Sword Dragon’s organs.
Von Suess still did not attack. He had sharp eyes and could tell that the three pets were not simple, especially the humanoid one.
After the Sword Dragon was instantly killed, the captain frowned and said, “No wonder he dared to come to the Dragon Cave Mountain. He had something to rely on.”
Wei Huo ignored the players and looked at the Wyvern. “Xiao Bin, kill that Wyvern first.”
Xiao Bin accepted the order and walked toward the Wyvern. His strength was at the half-step Epic stage, but it was enough for him to fight against this Epic-ranked creature created by the system. Back when Wei Huo had yet to become an Epic-ranked creature, ordinary Epic-ranked creatures had already been no match for him.
The five players were confused when they saw Xiao Bin walk out. It was obvious that Xiao Bin was at Level 1. What was this Level-1 player doing?
The captain was indeed a player who had reached Level 200. He felt that something was wrong, so he immediately shouted, “Lure the Wyvern over and make them stay in the imposing field!”
Wei Huo looked at the players again. Suddenly, he asked System Number Two, “Which of these five ready-made bodies do you want?”
System Number Two thought for a moment and then took a fancy to the only female player among the five players.
Everyone was speechless.
Zhou Song could not help but say, “Big Brother, I’ve always treated you as my brother.”
System Number Two said shyly, “From now on, you can treat me as your sister. Before I had a body, my gender was unknown.”
Wei Huo did not waste any time talking. He pointed his finger and the female player among the five players started trembling. Next, she fell to the ground.
The remaining four players were shocked. The captain said in disbelief, “Lea! You…”
The female player was already dead, but her Thinking Lock was still there. Wei Huo pointed at System Number Two, and the scroll shattered. Then, a force enveloped System Number Two’s soul and entered the female player’s body.
A moment later, the female player came back to life.
At that moment, the captain was shocked. In the end, the female player controlled by System Number Two suddenly raised her staff. “F*ck, Level-213 Archmage, let’s use Volcanic Eruption first!”
