...
The players on the training ground were watching the members of Earth Star Pharmaceutical who suddenly descended. Especially the newcomers who had just arrived a few days ago, they were all so breathless with excitement that they couldn't control their upturned mouths.
The members of Earth Star Pharmaceutical, who had landed on the training ground outside the courtyard, were utterly bewildered upon sensing the players' gazes.
"Have these silver-gray-clad humans gone dumb with fear?" The fire serpent from the Three-Eyed Race scanned the circle and said in surprise, "None of them even attempted to run, instead, their gazes at us are bizarre."
In his impression, whenever Earth Star Pharmaceutical appeared, members of various factions would be terrified.
Now in the Mist Mountain Region, not many may know about Earth Star Pharmaceutical, but they brought over a hundred high-tier Bone Forging Realm martial artists this time. That number of high-tier Bone Forging experts constitutes a terrifying force for any city.
Perhaps the Gray-clothed could gather all their strength to fight them, but at the moment, it's a surprise attack. Facing so many high-tier Bone Forging Realm martial artists at once would normally scare those who aren't even martial artists to death, just like other martial arts academy disciples, whose gazes would only be filled with terror and panic when looking at them.
But these gray-clothed people from Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, for some reason, he felt that their gazes were like hungry wolves seeing fresh meat, filled with aggression, which was completely illogical.
"Ignore them, time is limited, let's capture the target and quickly leave." Shadow Fang from the Half-Beast Race noticed the issue too, but he didn't care. No matter how strange these gray-clothed people seemed, they weren't even martial artists and posed no threat to them.
The fire serpent nodded. With just a lift of his hand, the members of Earth Star Pharmaceutical all charged towards Yakro.
"Is it over?" Yakro looked at the rushing members of Earth Star Pharmaceutical and could only sigh helplessly, not planning to resist.
Because everything had ended when the members of Earth Star Pharmaceutical appeared. Any additional resistance would only cause unnecessary harm, and the entire Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall might disappear in the process.
Just as the geniuses from Earth Star Pharmaceutical charged towards Yakro, the players who initially wanted to watch the show became incensed.
"Damn! They're going after our Pharmacist Big Sister!"
"Quick! Brothers, let's wipe them out! Otherwise, we'll have no more potions!"
"They dare touch our NPC right in front of us, do they think we're just decorations?"
The players, seeing the geniuses from Earth Star Pharmaceutical about to lay hands on Yakro, stopped merely watching the show and charged forward, even the rookie players surged ahead without hesitation.
As an important NPC in the Martial Arts Hall, Yakro not only provided potions but was also a beautiful sight within the hall. Many new players interacted most frequently with Yakro, the pharmacist, when they entered the game, and many were charmed by Yakro, making her a popular character on the forums.
Considering how realistic the game was, the officials had long stated that the death of any NPC meant they could not be revived.
If the pharmacologist Yakro were taken down, it would spell the end for these players.
In an instant, the Earth Star Pharmaceutical members initiating the fight all looked dumbfounded at players charging at them from all directions.
While the vast number of martial artists in the Martial Arts Hall were too frightened to act, these gray-clad people charged ahead, mind-bogglingly, even those who weren't apprentices dared to attack them.
However, geniuses from Earth Star Pharmaceutical are indeed geniuses. Facing a group of players mainly at apprentice level, they could effortlessly slay a bunch with just simple martial techniques.
Even though hundreds of gray-clad people rushed forward, some were martial artists, to Earth Star Pharmaceutical's geniuses, it was merely a matter of using martial arts techniques a few more times.
"Have these martial academy disciples gone crazy? Those are high-tier Bone Forging experts! They're actually daring to engage?"
The Martial Arts Hall spectators, still in panic, watched in disbelief as the players charged onward without hesitation.
Although many of them had been evaluated as prospective entrants to the hall and had heard tales of these real disciples, they had remained unconvinced, thinking the disciples only dared to fight against foes of the same level.
They themselves were prepared to fight to the death against masters of the same level if the martial arts hall called for it.
But now, they were truly shocked.
Because these real disciples of the hall, even when not apprentices, dared to punch against high-tier Bone Forger Realm martial artists, though using the standard Shattering Stone Fist, they were eliminated with a single move by the Bone Forger Realm martial artist, losing half their body on the spot.
Yet such an outcome in no way affected the disciples behind them. Instead, some new disciples seized the opportunity to trigger a Heavy Ion Bomb, standing by Earth Star Pharmaceutical members and real disciples and detonating, achieving mutual destruction without any hesitation, even showing exuberance.
"Madmen!"
"This group is insane!"
As rookie players held heavy ion bombs, initiating indiscriminate self-detonation among the crowd, the geniuses from Earth Star Pharmaceutical spat out curses, shocked and enraged by the players surging from the rear.
They were not strangers to death warriors cultivated by great factions, with Earth Star Pharmaceutical having trained many of their own too.
But they had never seen death warriors like these; when others went down, their faces would reveal fright and reluctance. These gray-clad people, however, were beaming with joy, shouting that they'd made a profit, not even sparing their own companions.
In merely a few seconds of conflict, over ten geniuses from Earth Star Pharmaceutical were taken out by heavy ion bombs, an undeniably great loss.
Of course, even more gray-clad people perished, all few hundred rushing forward were wiped out, not a single one left alive.
The grandeur of such a scene was shocking to both Wu Zhuoqun and Xiong Yuedie inside the Martial Arts Hall.
Though considering sacrificing themselves for the future of their race, compared to the dedication of these gray-clad disciples from Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, it was insignificant.
Several hundred people!
All unhesitatingly sacrificed themselves, merely to take down twelve opponents. Such a tactic was truly insanity.
Yet, the method truly proved worthwhile.
Several hundred gray-clothed disciples, none surpassing middle-tier martial artist rank, with over ninety percent being apprentices and non-apprentice disciples, were able to exchange for the lives of twelve high-tier Bone Forging Realm martial artists, definitely a profit.
Wu Zhuoqun and Xiong Yuedie knew the gray-clothed disciple numbers were few, and cultivating each one was no easy task, the loss of several hundreds was a significant blow to Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
"Let's step in too." Wu Zhuoqun decided not to wait any longer, preparing to charge forward.
With just a single confrontation, Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall lost several hundred real disciples. If no one stopped the oncoming Bone Forging Realm experts, in merely minutes, all real disciples of the Martial Arts Hall would perish.
Just as Wu Zhuoqun and Xiong Yuedie took a step, a figure flashed from the second-floor lounge at such speed they couldn't see clearly, instantly appearing in front of Yakro. The terrifying qi and blood presence made all Earth Star Pharmaceutical members pause.
"So fast!"
"Was that supersonic speed?"
Wu Zhuoqun and Xiong Yuedie looked at the figure outside the martial arts hall in astonishment.
Covering several hundred meters in the blink of an eye, even supersonic speed was not far off.
To attain supersonic speed as a martial artist is no easy feat, generally achievable by top-level Bone Forging experts specializing in speed. They had no idea Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall had such concealed experts.
"Who are you?" The fire serpent asked, eyes narrowed at the figure that appeared suddenly.
Such strength, even in that brief instant, was distinctly felt. It was definitely no ordinary Bone Forging expert, provoking instinctive fear.
"The one who will end you!"
Luo Wushang, facing the leading fire serpent, lightly swung the Tier Two longsword in her hand.
