Chapter 140: Revival?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Violent Dragon discovered Augustine’s corpse.
He gazed at William with a different attitude than before.
Violent Dragon did not dare to ask for the corpse. He merely verified its identity, and then let William leave with the corpse.
Violent Dragon looked at William in a different light and thought to himself, “He’s so attached to the corpse. Tsk, tsk, the corpse has been so badly battered that it does not even look human. What’s the use of keeping it?”
Thankfully, he did not say it out loud.
Otherwise, William would have made him pay dearly for it.
The group of players noticed that their team leader was stained with blood, and his equipment was badly damaged. They surrounded him. Forever Alone carried the heavy Lightning Bow and presented it like a treasure to William.
“Hehe, I left it here.” William smiled as he kept the bow.
Then he looked at the 30 players who had been downgraded to level 10. Their equipment had been destroyed. However, they were still left with indestructible innerwear and socks…
“You did good. I liked your performance. Take this, it is your reward!” William awarded him some gold coins.
[Ding dong]
[You have completed the “Bait” mission]
[Bait: Your excellent performance was endorsed by William Blackleaf. You sacrificed yourself fearlessly and impressed William. You will receive your deserved reward.]
[1 x Redemption coupon for novice level silver-quality equipment]
[5 x Redemption coupons for novice level blue-quality equipment]
[20 gold coins]
[90,000 experience points]
Forever Alone, who had died 46 times in the battle, looked at the rewards in a daze. He was speechless.
The other players were also stunned. Silver-quality equipment?
20 gold coins?
90,000 experience points?
Forever Alone had struck a fortune!
He could upgrade at least three to four levels with those amount of experience points.
All the 30 players who had revived multiple times and charged at the execution team fearlessly, even though they didn’t have any equipment.
They grabbed their opponents’ thighs.
They grabbed their eyes.
They dug out their eyes and ears, scratched their armpits…
Before William left, they had managed to restrain 20 members of the execution team. Only five of them managed to escape.
The other players gained similar rewards as Forever Alone due to their undying efforts…
Then William headed south.
The 30 players started discussing their windfall.
“My Lord, where are you going? Shall I follow by your side?” Forever Alone caught up with William and asked. The other players also followed suit.
The players had obtained experience points and gold coins. However, they had to redeem their equipment at the outposts of the Dawn Mercenary Team.
But the players were not in a hurry to exchange for their equipment. After all, staying with William would be far more profitable.
William remained unaffected to their requests and turned his head. Patting his chest, he said in a deep voice, “You’re brave and fearless. You possess an unyielding attitude. You are a qualified warrior, but you are too weak.”
William’s gaze shifted to the west, and he clenched his fists. “I’m going to the City of Dawn and bring other warriors here. Work hard and make yourself stronger. Inform your comrades that when the Light returns, it’ll be the start of the war.”
“Yes, team leader.” Forever Alone shouted as he beat his chest.
“Yes, team leader.” The other players mimicked their fellow comrade.
They watched the blood-stained William travel to the south. They could feel that the future battle would be on a grander scale and became excited.
“Gosh, what if the warriors are all middle-level fighters?” A player had become worried.
“We’ll fight. I don’t like the look of Iron Nation. I won’t fight the NPCs. Instead, I’ll fight with the players of Iron Nation.”
“That’s right. The players of Iron Nation. They will be our targets!”
Forever Alone interrupted and said, “Don’t forget that we’re an organized and disciplined mercenary team. We’ll run… charge at whoever the team leader wants us to kill!”
A few professional players heard the word ‘run’ and wanted to laugh but they held back.
They sighed. Since they had joined the mercenary team that was led by an NPC, they could not fight freely like those unaffiliated players.
The players were affiliated with various guilds and teams. So they had to follow their designated targets instead of their whims.
A player suddenly asked, “We’ll follow the team leader’s arrangements. However, if we are going to be cannon fodders… can the team leader afford us?”
Indeed, there were a considerable number of players in the City of Dawn and Black Lava Nation. If they joined the Dawn Mercenary Team, and they had to take part in a cannon fodder mission, would the team leader have to sell his body to make the payments…
But they did not know.
The players were still inexperienced. They were not aware of the cunning tactics of NPCs…
Were the rewards of the mission real?
NO.
William knew that.
He merely talked casually, but the game intelligence changed it to a mission.
After completion of a mission, if the NPC pretended not to acknowledge the contributions of the players, then the players would only receive experience points…
So.
The players should not think that generous rewards came from hidden missions. It was erroneous thinking.
William had to return home.
His equipment had been too badly damaged.
It was not the fault of the equipment’s durability or its level, simply, the enemy’s combat power had been too strong. When two legendary BOSSES fought against each other, the equipment would be badly damaged…
“Augustine was very powerful. Thankfully, my epic inner armor wasn’t destroyed. Otherwise, the outcome would be my death.” William had been willing to duel with Augustine because of the Love’s Blessing.
If there was not something like that, he would not dare to slug it out with Augustine.
“But why isn’t your soul dead?” He gazed at Augustine’s corpse that lied on his back.
William was also a soul mage and a Saint Soul mage. Even though his skills had been drastically modified by Moses, he still retained a strong sense of locating souls.
He found Augustine’s condition to be very strange. His flesh body had perished, but his soul had not yet dissipated.
There was a mysterious link that was connected to Augustine’s soul. It provided his soul the energy to prevent it from dissipating.
Hence,
William had a sudden revelation!
Goethe Nasis must be using magic to extend Augustine’s life. Perhaps, he even had a way to revive him.
However.
A bolder idea had come to William’s mind!
“What if I am the one to revive you?” William quickened his pace and sped toward the City of Dawn.
“I don’t have the revival ability, but Moses has it!” The eyes of William shimmered, but nobody could tell what he was thinking.
