BXBX NOVEL Chapter 195 - Finale (2)
Chapter 195: Finale (2)
Anyway, we moved forward, getting rid of the monsters whenever they appeared before us. Then, all of a sudden, we encountered NPCs. According to the quest message, we would receive more points by hunting them rather than users.
In fact, I heard that other teams actually hunted the NPCs and really received a lot of points. A whopping 10 times more than if they hunted simple users.
Considering that killing level 1000 players granted 15,000 points, it would be a whopping 150,000 points. And since the NPCs were simple villagers, they allegedly could hunt them very quickly.
In other words, there was a safer and easier way to acquire points than hunting users.
So, another user of the Mirae Guild also suggested that instead of hunting the Japanese users and becoming the target of the Mitsuya Guild, we should hunt only NPCs carefully.
In fact, there were many NPCs everywhere. But I objected to this method.
Of course, there was no good reason for me to oppose this idea.
But I just felt uncomfortable about it.
So, we decided to break our team into two groups, namely one group that would attack the NPCs and another group that would not.
I could not force them to follow me because I would not attack the NPCs, so I didn’t get involved with their decision. As a matter of fact, I wanted them to attack the NPCs because if it led to a bad future as I expected, it would be good for me as well.
No matter how strong they were, it was absolutely impossible for them to catch up with me. But for this quest, I would still be ahead in terms of points if they attacked the NPCs and ended up getting bad results.
Anyway, even if they get more points by attacking NPCs, I was confident of getting more points than they would, especially since I would be moving alone on the last day of the event to finish with a flourish. So I ignored the NPCs and moved quickly, along with the other members of the Mirae team who decided not to attack the NPCs like me.
Of course, Bora Yon was included among them.
At the safe house prepared by the Mirae Guild the next day.
“Thanks for your hard work for the past six days.”
“You’re welcome. I also moved comfortably according to the plan you guys at the Mirae Guild prepared.’
As a matter of fact, I really felt comfortable while hunting with the Mirae Guild team this time.
Even in the middle of the fierce battle, they told me exactly when I could retreat, and I could log in and log out with ease in a safe house prepared in advance by the Mirae Guild.
In addition, I could steadily accumulate points by receiving information in real time about where the Japanese users were grouped up.
But I wanted to hunt by myself at least for one day before this event ended.
Of course, I also wanted to widen the gap in points with the other members of the Mirae team.
Anyway, I parted ways with the Mirae Guild members like that.
Then I moved toward the place that I had in mind, namely, the main base of the Sendai Guild.
Of course, I knew that the Takehara Guild, the Shunan Guild, or the Mitsuya Guild that controlled all the guilds in Japan had been searching for me. But that was not the reason why I took the trouble of finding another guild.
In particular, as far as gaining points was concerned, only the levels of the killed users matter. There was no difference at all in what guild they belonged to and what position they occupied in their guild. So, I decided to visit the Sendai Guild, which I could easily deal with, and which had many guild members. Of course, I made the decision by thoroughly calculating the gains and losses so I could get the best possible result.
“Move to Sudbury Castle.”
[You have moved to Sudbury Castle.]
It seemed that our Mirae Guild members had really messed up the Japanese guild members.
There were fewer users than I expected in the field outside Sudbury Castle.
So I ignored them and moved quickly using Blink to the outskirts of Sudbury Castle where I soon found their huge main base. It was the Sendai Guild’s headquarters.
“Who are you?”
Of course, there was a security guard guarding the main gate of the headquarters.
However, as I always did, I immediately slashed at him with the +4 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword reinforced with level 3 Ice Weapon without even responding to him.
Puck!
“Kuheeeeeeeeeeeek!
Pasasasak!
Thick ice appeared on the guard’s ribs near the stab wound.
Obviously, it was frostbite, but it was much more powerful than the usual frostbites.
Given that their security guard was so weak that he collapsed in one attack, the Sendai guild didn’t seem to think that the invaders would attack their headquarters.
After killing the guard, I entered their headquarters, then began to fire Ice Field toward the Sendai Guild members who could not hide their confused expressions.
I hurried because the Sendai Guild was not the only place that I was supposed to visit today. Moreover, I had a reason why I invaded their headquarters today, for unlike a hunting ground, they would have to counterattack rather than retreat to save their base.
Since they were my enemies anyway, they actively counter attacked.
“Block him!”
“He is an intruder who has invaded our headquarters! Everyone, fight back!”
“Soar up. Pillar of Fire!”
“Triple Shot!”
:
:
“Fire Field!”
“Slow! Slow!”
“Bind that man’s body, Earth!”
They launched numerous attacks and debuff curses against me.
Of course, I could easily withstand such numerous attacks.
Their attacks didn’t inflict enough damage or even enough debuffs to hinder my attacks, so they collapsed helplessly.
“Blink! Ice Wave!”
“Kuheeeeeeek!”
“Damn it!”
I killed them all in one shot.
Although my Ice Wave didn’t have a wide range, the enemy forces gathered in one place immediately fell when hit directly by it just once.
Of course, my attacks other than Ice Wave were also strong.
I freely used a lot more of my skills here for the first time during the event. Before, I had imposed limitations on which skills I revealed as I had to move together with the Mirae members.
So, I broadly smiled before I knew it.
Of course, I was not sure how the Sendai Guild would interpret the smile on my face, but I was satisfied for now because the best way I could confirm my strength was by battling users instead of hunting
However, there was only one thing I regretted, namely Blink with zero cooldown.
If I showed Blink with zero cooldown here, they would die without doing anything, with their mouths open. I actually wanted to show them all my abilities, but I held back the urge, for this was not a battlefield where I could show my extraordinary abilities.
In fact, I was overwhelming them despite their huge numbers.
But I retreated 30 minutes later even though there were a lot of Sendai Guild members left to hunt. I had no intention of fighting the MItsuya Guild at this point who would charge at me as soon as they found me.
Since there were still many other guild headquarters in Japan, I decided not to set the Mitsuya Guild as a target. That would make them angrier, of course.
Anyway, on the last day, I searched for the headquarters of the enemy guilds here and there and fought, or slaughtered them to end the quest with a flourish.
Moreover, the Mirae Guild team also hunted as best as they could because it was the last day of the event.
While I was busy fighting the enemy guild members like that, a message rang.
[ The Exploration of Another Region has ended.
-In ten seconds, you will be moved to your original region.]
It was a message that announced the end of the event.
It was much safer and easier because I moved with the Mirae Guild members this time.
But I didn’t think my decision to move with them was bad because being safe doesn’t mean it’s bad.
I felt my body being pulled somewhere, and soon the Dragon’s Tomb, where I originally met the Mirae Guild, came into view along with another message about the quest rewards.
