Chapter 479: Chapter 479: An Unusual Event
This time, Starfire Guild could say it was a great victory. The Devil Alliance had brought over ten thousand players to block the small valley.
In terms of actual strength, of course, the guild alliance was stronger as there were many guilds participating.
But eventually, the two sides did not start a fight, but instead resolved the dispute through a gamble.
As a result, Li Yao helped the Guild alliance win the gamble, while the Devil Alliance did not want to let Starfire’s players through.
The Guild alliance watched the drama unfold as spectators. Under these circumstances, this led to Starfire taking on over ten thousand Devil Alliance players with just a thousand of their own.
In the end, they triumphed over them. Although Starfire was almost wiped out, they managed to secure a victory.
If they died, they would directly drop their equipment. Starfire Guild gathered over ten thousand pieces of equipment.
Even though not all of it was top-notch, most of it was Purple Equipment, occupying over ten thousand pieces.
These members were all elites of the Devil Alliance, so there was little Blue Equipment on them.
Moreover, the Purple Equipment they possessed was all level fifteen or seventeen, which are mainstream Purple Equipment, and especially during the time of pioneering the instance, this kind of equipment was surely pursued.
Quickly, the members of Starfire Guild re-equipped the fallen equipment.
Lady Li said: “This time the harvest is too rich, for those who participated in this battle, besides guild points, there is also a piece of Purple Equipment for each person. The elders and I have prepared for sorting, and it’s now in the Guild warehouse, the Guild leader has opened the permissions for you, you can take any piece of Purple Equipment at will. In addition, those who want to pioneer the instance can also select their equipment. The equipment has been categorised, I will give you half an hour, and then we will be departing to pioneer the instance.”
After Lady Li finished speaking, she entered a large tent, where a group of people was already gathered.
“Good, those who are ready for the First Kill are all here, let us distribute the equipment.” Li Yao started allocating equipment to the team members: “These pieces of equipment serve as rewards for participating in this battle, and you can exchange them for two pieces of equipment with points. If you exceed the limit, you must return them to the guild after pioneering.”
“Boss, we understand.” Happiness is a Disease said.
“Originally, I would talk about the instance after arriving at the instance. But now while distributing equipment, let me first explain this instance.” Li Yao glanced around and said: “This main storyline is different from the instances we have seen before, so the way we fight it is also different. Many guilds may lose out if they can’t adapt. The Devil Alliance was able to pioneer the first boss in such a short amount of time, so it’s not a simple matter. They might have some hidden cards.”
DumbfoundedTongtong said: “Big brother, you have said so much but still have not mentioned what is special about this instance.”
Li Yao nodded and said: “It is a War Instance.”
“War Instance?” Lady Li questioned.
Li Yao said: “Yes, War Instance. I have no qualms telling you that we must achieve First Kill in this instance. The Queen gave me a mission that can only be triggered by getting First Kill. She once mentioned that although this tribe is small, it is very special. It has many names like Shadow Tribe, Cursed Tribe, and Evil Hoof Tribe, none of which are without substance. Therefore, the three factions have negotiated and decided to use this instance as a trial for the new recruits, that is us.”
“Guild leader, you don’t need to explain so much, instruct us how to fight, and we will do as you say. The other guilds have already started.” A newcomer called Mu Zi said in a hurry.
“Alright, then we will start.” Li Yao said: “We’ll talk about the specifics inside.”
Qin Fengyi said: “Wait a minute, I don’t know who, but someone leaked a video of the Devil Alliance’s pioneering guide.”
“What? How could such a thing get leaked?” Lady Li was surprised.
Li Yao was astounded and said: “How is this possible?”
Qin Fengyi said: “I also think it is impossible, but now a lot of guilds have gotten this video. I even bought it from a friend.”
Li Yao fell silent and said: “Usually, video recording is limited, but a video was still leaked and is even being sold. This is quite unusual.”
“I always feel like there is a conspiracy.” Lady Li said.
“Well, there’s no doubt about the video. It has footage of the boss battle and the key points to pass the instance.” Qin Fengyi said.
“Let’s watch and walk for now and not fuss over whether there is a conspiracy or not.” Li Yao couldn’t quite figure out what the Devil Alliance was planning for the moment.
However, as someone who had reborn, although he forgot a lot of things, he had a deep impression of the mainline instance. This instance contained many mysteries.
Therefore, Li Yao was not worried at all. They were leading by just more than a day, and it was impossible for them to achieve First Kill.
On the way, Qin Fengyi started to play the video. Some unimportant parts were fast-forwarded, and only at critical points did they pause. It was only after they finished the pre-instance missions and entered the instance that they finished watching the video.
“How is it, did anyone find anything unusual?” Lady Li asked inside the instance.
Li Yao also couldn’t find any clues, but he always felt that something was amiss. Moreover, their pioneering was stuck in that cycle, which didn’t surprise Li Yao.
The always silent Unparalleled Seductress said: “This video has too many traces of editing. I think they certainly want to mislead us. However, there are some things that don’t make sense. Even if they misled us, the information disclosed in the video is too much.”
Tongtong said: “I think you’re overthinking it. Regardless of whether or not it’s misleading, we just have to understand the instance from the video, then fight on our own. Besides, with big brother being so powerful, the tactics he comes up with will definitely surpass theirs.”
Fruit Knight nodded and said: “Tongtong’s right, we just need to look at the instance’s situation. For the specific battle tactics and strategy, having the guild leader is enough. No matter what conspiracy they have, or what they want to mislead, it would not affect us.”
“Exactly, exactly, with the guild leader, who needs their rotten strategy.” Newcomer Mu Zi also said.
The other members also chimed in. They had blind trust in Li Yao.
Unparalleled Seductress said: “It seems your prestige is quite high. You’re under heavy pressure.”
Li Yao knew this was not the time to be humble and said: “You’re joining us in pioneering this time because you want to see my capabilities, right? I still have confidence in myself. Let’s not dilly-dally, just watch.”
“Alright, I will be watching closely. If you can lead Starfire to score the First Kill under these circumstances, then from now on I will work for you wholeheartedly, manage the club well and not say a word otherwise.” Unparalleled Seductress said.
“Alright, it’s settled then. Everyone, start your buffs, let’s get started.”
With Li Yao’s command, the members of Starfire Guild started buffing…
