Chapter 61: Hundred Flower Alliance

“Snap out of it. Let’s go back.” The second brother of the Carefree Guild suddenly said.
“What happened to the boss?” Carefree Xiaozi asked blankly.
“Huzi, who stayed below, reported it,” said the second brother of the Carefree Guild with an unwilling look on his face. “The boss was also killed by the tornado from that Dragon Eagle.”
“That thing?” Carefree Xiaozi swallowed hard and asked with difficulty.
“Yeah, the thing. A level 11 minor boss killed by a level 60 boss, do you think it would drop loot?” The second brother of the Carefree Guild looked incredibly downcast.
Carefree Xiaozi’s face also looked extremely grim as he ran in the direction of Faselin Academy without a word.
After a while, Big Brother connected with the second brother of the Carefree
Guild, asking, “Did it respawn?”
“The tornado blew the body away. We couldn’t find it,” replied the second brother of the Carefree Guild, his face gloomier than ever.
“Let’s go, Prairie Fire. We will see.” Big Brother said, almost wanting to vomit blood with depression.
The Carefree Guild was severely crippled this time. They had already died twice to the boss in the cave they were pioneering.
However, the appearance of Prairie Fire led to a wrong judgement by their third brother. The whole second group was reduced from level four to level one in an instant.
Now, to see Prairie Fire pioneering a level ten instance, all the guilds started to develop their strategies according to Prairie Fire’s clearing strategy. The Carefree Guild couldn’t resist the temptation and immediately let their first group explore.
Because of their unfamiliarity and technical issues, they ran into the same problem as other guilds, losing many player levels after reaching the second platform.
Unlike Prairie Fire, for them, it was a definite loss in terms of experience. The only reason they were persistent was the purple equipment.
Now that even the boss was dead, their pioneering endeavor naturally failed too. First group suffered heavy losses; they could be described as having lost both the lady and the soldiers.
“What about the other guilds?” asked the second brother of the Carefree Guild in a deep voice.
“Forget about the entire game, even in China, several guilds have already killed the boss. Each time, they managed to get a piece of purple equipment,” Big Brother said with difficulty.
“How can we be sure it’s Prairie Fire? Players can’t possibly be riding a level 60 boss around, right?” The second brother of the Carefree Guild was puzzled.
“Of course he’s not capable of that, but my intuition tells me that he’s somehow connected to this,” Big Brother said bitterly. “Let’s keep a low profile this time. I’ve already reported the video to the official website, hoping they’ll provide some kind of compensation.”
The second brother of the Carefree Guild could only accept this in resignation. In their current state, even if they wanted to hold Prairie Fire accountable, they lacked the power to do so.
At this moment, a complaint video appeared on the official website, claiming that NPCs were attacking players unprovoked. It appealed to the majority of players for support and called for an official statement.
The video was highly upvoted, but very few players helped them petition. Most of them gloated over their misfortune and kicked them while they were down, speculating why a level 60 boss would attack the Carefree Guild out of the blue.
However, it was only after half a day that the official response arrived: “Data is normal, complaint is invalid.”
The Carefree Guild had no recourse and could only swallow their losses in silence. Particularly the guild leader, who firmly believed that Prairie Fire had something to do with this whole event, was absolutely incensed.
He contacted Li Yao through Qin Feng Yi again, but Qin Feng Yi told him that she wasn’t familiar with Prairie Fire either, and she had heard that he left the Beginner’s Village. This made him even more frustrated.
Now, they didn’t even know where Prairie Fire was. With the vast map and numerous players in ‘The Ancient God World’, finding a specific player was like looking for a needle in a haystack. They could only hold back their frustration and sigh in silence.
As for the Li Yao they resented, he had already left the Tower of the Sun on his Dragon Eagle. Soon after, he passed through the Song Forest, where the High Elf capital is located, and arrived in a place that was dark, oppressive, and filled with the stench of rot and death.
The Ghost Land used to be a part of the Song Forest, but the Legion destroyed everything during the Great Disaster.
The place seemed as if it was under the Undead Canopy, the whole area was dark and putrid, and nearly full of undead. Moreover, most of the undead here were of level 20 or above.
Li Yao was headed to a place with low-level monsters, where the monster levels ranged between 5 and 15, located at the bottom-left of the map.
Even while riding a flying mount, it took Li Yao several hours of flight.
During that time, he even logged out twice. When he finally arrived at his destination, it was already morning of the next game day.
Tower of the Windwalker, once the headquarters of the Rangers and the land and home of the Windrunner Family. The Queen’s necklace is a random drop from the monsters in this area, and nobody can predict what the drop rate is.
Of course, the drop rate doesn’t explain everything; the most important factor is luck.
Li Yao circled the Tower of the Windwalker on his mount and was surprised to find that there were already players leveling up in this area.
But when he thought about it, it made sense. This area is connected to two other areas: one where the Undead Clan is located, and the other that leads to the land of the Gilneas Werewolves.
The members of some guilds were spread across different beginner villages, so it was hard for them to gather in one place. Therefore, they usually apply to leave the beginner village after reaching level five. They then either rent mounts or ride merchant convoys to level up in other regions.
General merchandise stores have maps indicating the levels of the monsters. Many guilds or teams of players choose remote places to level up. Firstly, for tranquility, and secondly, to get a chance to loot some specialty items and sell them for money.
In his past life, Li Yao was constantly moving in remote regions. Looking at the players below him, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Li Yao shook off his thoughts, let his mount land in a safe area that a player just cleared, and was about to go kill monsters somewhere else. A slightly excited female voice came over: “Can we assist you in any way?
Li Yao was taken aback. Looking at the female player who was currently bowing to him, he immediately understood. This was typically how players greeted and asked NPCs for tasks. He had unexpectedly been mistaken for an NPC.
Werewolves were once humans before they mutated, and even now they are part of the human faction. However, the relationship between humans and High Elves is unique. Even though the two factions are at odds,
High Elves and humans are very close. The two races have cooperated several times to deal with Trolls. Even today, many High Elves and half-elves still live in human society. So, while the two races are officially opposed, they have never really waged war or created conflict.
The two races can even receive supplies and tasks in certain areas of the other’s territory.
Li Yao used the Eye of the Creator and saw the profiles of several people.
The female player who just asked the question is called Lily, and her teammates — all female players – are called Resounding Rose, Valley Orchid, Daffodil, and Hibiscus Rain.
Li Yao immediately remembered their information. The China Flower Union, a large guild that ranks in the top twenty; Light Faction, the only super large guild composed entirely of women. They also formed a competitive team and competed in the World Cup, where they achieved a top three ranking – the best result ever secured by a female team in history.
Suddenly having a thought, a non-binding item such as the Queen’s Necklace might not be a problem…maybe posing as an NPC isn’t too bad…
