Chapter 74 Attacking PlayersSuddenly, Cassius spoke, breaking Mantou's fantasy of riding a flying dragon and diving. "It's getting late, everyone please go back. I hope you will be fully prepared when we meet next time." Then, he waved his hand gently, and a portal burning with blazing flames appeared in front of them. Before the four people could react, a powerful magic force field forced them in, leaving no room for struggle or resistance. Everyone only felt a flash of white light, and then they were back in the hut. The words on the invitation have dimmed and it seems there will be no second chance to use it. Xia Ye Qiu Yu recalled the experience just now and couldn't help but said: "This store is so cool, no, I mean this NPC is so important." Singo regretted writing the guide too early: "I never thought that faction contribution would have such a big effect. I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions." "That warrior's advanced class, Red Scale Conqueror, is definitely the strongest class in the early stages, bar none." The natural warrior touched his bald head and said, "I also want to play with the entire dragon bloodline. It feels very strong." Singo agreed, "Well, the natural armor alone can create a big gap between us and ordinary players, not to mention the attribute bonuses and spell abilities."
Mantou said quietly, "Then should we keep this news secret and not let others know?" Xia Ye Qiu Yu and Tian Sheng Zhan Kuang both nodded in agreement when they heard this. With their professional players' mindset, it is normal for them to monopolize intelligence first and widen the gap with others. Singo objected: "No, we must make this information public." Mantou asked in confusion: "What if Chilin is taken away by someone else?" He is now obsessed with becoming a dragon knight, and there is no room for any other thoughts in his mind. Being a knight is a man's romance! Singo looked at him with disdain, and then said, "Of course not immediately, but at a certain time." "What time?" "Observe the movements of those big guilds and wait until they start competing for faction contribution tasks." Xia Ye Qiu Yu immediately understood and explained, "In the early stages, gold coins were in short supply, so those big guilds might focus more on equipment and not spend money specifically on quest items. But once they develop, they will definitely try to buy quest items like the [Mysterious Invitation]." "After they understand the role of faction contribution, they will definitely monopolize the information and start to grab those faction contribution tasks that were originally not wanted. At this time, we have to announce this news and try to mobilize more individual players to compete with the guild to slow down their progress." The natural warrior added: "And the period before this is when we are widening the gap with others in terms of contribution to the camp." Mantou suddenly realized what was going on and shouted, "You top professional gamers are so evil-minded." Singo said: "What do you mean by 'evil heart'? This is called game strategy. If you are not good at it, just practice more. When the time comes, you will be responsible for posting videos and I will be responsible for posting guides. We will directly increase the traffic." "Row." Tiansheng Zhan Kuang looked at the invitation letter on the table that looked like an ordinary piece of paper and said, "Should we buy another invitation letter first? I guess that thing is not in unlimited supply. It would be bad if those bastards in the guild snatched it away, especially the kingship." "Do you have any grudge against them?" Mantou asked curiously. The natural warrior smiled naively and touched his bald head. "It's not a big grudge. In the previous "Star Tour Domain", I used the Ship Slasher to chop up their guild's mothership. I'm afraid they will develop and target me this time." Cold sweat broke out on Mantou's forehead, and he thought to himself that this guy was really a ruthless person and should never be provoked easily. Xia Ye Qiu Yu asked, "Where did we get so many gold coins? This time, we have sold everything we have to get ten gold coins."
Singo sneered and said confidently, "Do you know that the Baator City Exchange recently launched a new business - gold coin loans, which only require one-tenth of the value of something as collateral." Mantou found that Singo was looking at him unkindly - or to be exact, his equipment. His face suddenly darkened. "I worked so hard to get this equipment, don't even think about taking it!" "Mantou, don't you want to be a handsome dragon knight?" Singo approached with a sinister smile, and the words that came out of his mouth sounded like the whispers of the devil. "what--" "Don't try to take my equipment away—" "At least leave me some underwear, Xin Gou." Xia Ye Qiuyu covered her eyes with a red face, but she was still secretly observing through her fingers, and her face became redder and redder. The natural warrior scratched his bald head in embarrassment and said, "Singo is just like that. Don't mind it." When Singo turned around, Mantou had a look of despair on his face. He had returned to his innocent appearance when he first entered the game - wearing simple cloth clothes, full of cute and adorable temperament. Singo himself also set an example by stripping off all the equipment on his body. Singo had a gentle smile on his face: "You two, I don't need to bother with any more trouble." Xia Ye Qiuyu witnessed the miserable state of Mantou through her fingers, and subconsciously hugged her arms, her cheeks slightly flushed. She said quickly: "Don't come over, I will do it myself." They were afraid that Singo would transform into a tentacle monster and do something bad. The natural war maniac touched his bald head and took off his animal skin coat neatly - barbarians didn't need any equipment anyway, they just needed to go berserk. "Snapped!" Singo smiled and clapped his hands. "Everyone agrees, so let's get started! We'll start widening the gap between us and other players, starting now!" "I will take these equipment to the exchange to borrow money. After I get the gold coins, I will immediately grab the mysterious invitation letter. Zhan Kuang, Qiu Yu, and Mantou, the three of you go to the square to accept the mission. The more you contribute to the camp, the better. By the way, pay attention to the mission to investigate the tieflings. All of these must be done simultaneously." Mantou, wearing simple cloth clothes, collapsed on the ground with empty and lifeless eyes. “Is this the world of professional masters?” “I have an opinion.” However, Singo acted as if he didn't hear anything, and ran away in a hurry, holding the pile of equipment that Mantou was obsessed with. Tiansheng Zhan Kuang patted Mantou's shoulder with his big, thick hands: "Mantou, don't take it personally. Singo is just like that. We often have mental breakdowns too. Just get used to it." Xia Yeqiuyu stood by, looking at him with sympathy and comforting him softly. Mantou wanted to cry but had no tears: "Who would take Xin Gou's words to heart? I was thinking about the equipment I worked so hard for ten days--" A dozen days later, the legend of the "Four Black Slave Group" spread in the city.
They were four well-known and popular professional players, but the strange thing was that each of them was only wearing the simplest novice cloth. Some players reasonably suspected that they had been robbed and were heavily in debt. These four "great gods" are not picky about tasks and take on any job, whether it's moving bricks, plastering, repairing walls, delivering letters or mining. Even when they encounter pure faction contribution tasks that ordinary people avoid, they still rush to do them. In just over ten days, they had increased their camp contribution to nearly five thousand, which shocked the forum and earned them the nickname "The Black Slave Quartet". "Ah!" Mantou wiped the sweat off his face in the dark mine and sneezed for some reason. "What is this foursome of black slaves..." "I am going to be a dragon rider!" He thought to himself, his determined eyes glowing faintly in the darkness, but behind him came the scolding of the hobgoblin overseer and the sound of whips. "What are you doing? Why are you in a daze? Get to work!" "Oh well." Mantou swung the hoe again, his movements becoming more and more skillful. 4500 words today, please subscribe!
