Bai Xiaoya was indifferent despite Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s vituperation and was not willing to send support.
“Bai Xiaoya, so this is the real you!”
Of course, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth would not give up so easily. He wrote messages in the guild and pulled out all the members who had a good relationship with him.
He might have lost it this time but he was quite respected in the guild. He was handsome, rich, and munificent. He was akin to Brother Windcloud Nine of the Fluttering Snow Continent, with hundreds ready to rally at his call.
After Tyrant Sword King the Fifth goofed around, members from the Fluttering Snow Alliance who quitted to follow him numbered no less than 10,000 people, including more than 100 elites.
Bai Xiaoya did not let him continue. She kicked him out of the guild.
As her actions were cruel and unsympathetic, many members also quit and went after him.
On this day, a new guild that had never appeared before in the past life was born; the Brotherhood.
“The Brotherhood is now recruiting! A member is a brother, and we shall share both bliss and misfortune. For those who are keen, message me. For those who plan to jump ship, I will pay for their defecting fees!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was really desperate. He had been recruiting all around the world.
He was not willing to fail like this, he must do something to fight back.
Within a day, the number of guild members had soared to more than 50,000!
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth also ordered all employees of Shangri-La to join the guild, making the number of guilds rose again, breaking 100,000!
Although most of them had levels and equipment as atrocious as Scumbag Wang’s Huashan Guild, there were no other options. In this moment of life and death, every man would count. There was strength in numbers.
“Those with their equipment level above 300 and their Holy value at least 60, count off!” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth wrote in the guild.
“312, 67!”
“401, 76!”
“512, 256!”
The members numbered off one by one, and professionals calculated the statistics. Finally, it was concluded that the members who had such qualifications were less than 3,000.
To fight with a level 200 elite monster, only players with those mentioned values could qualify, the rest would not even pose a threat to a level 200 elite.
At the entrance of the Shangri-La, the tyrants spent one million Gold Coins to activate the ‘Guild Master’s Order’.
The ‘Guild Master’s Order’ was the same as the ‘King’s Order’. The difference was that the Guild Master would gather all members of the guild, while the King would gather an entire nation.
In a flash, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was surrounded by a crowd. Out of the 100,000 guild members, more than 70,000 came.
“Brothers, this is the moment of life and death. We might not be powerful enough, but with enough sacrifices, we can beat them one by one. Brothers, I know this will make you lose a lot, but believe me! So long as I, King Fifth, can survive this, I shall repay this favor!”
His words caused quite a commotion. Many guaranteed that even if their level were to fall to zero, they would still follow him.
“My honorable brothers, forward!”
A fierce battle between David and Goliath had begun.
Their adversaries had at least 200,000 of level 200 elite monsters, while the players who could really contribute were only approximately 10,000 people.
The outcome of the fight between the two sides, as he predicted, could only use the method of defeating them one by one to reduce the number of monsters bit by bit.
Compared with the monsters, the players could be resurrected, but the monsters could not. They would only refresh, but the location was not here.
“Zhang, sell 20% of the company’s stock. We’ll fight to the end!”
At the same time, his father Wang Leitian had been thinking about countermeasures.
Wang Leitian’s secretary was very worried: “40% of the company’s stock has been sold, and now another 20%. If someone were to have ulterior motives...”
“I am not afraid. I don’t believe someone dares to touch me. 20% is too little, let’s sell it in batches, 20% at a time, in four batches, now go!” Wang Leitian sneered.
The secretary was speechless and stared at Wang Leitian.
“Quit yapping and do your job.”
“Understood!”
The secretary hurried away.
“If someone really dared to touch me, I’ll give him a shell corporation with nothing but butt loads of debts! Hahahaha...” Wang Leitian laughed haughtily.
Selling all the company’s stock and transfer all the assets, leaving the company in deficits. This was not the first time he had done it.
The company would suffer losses, but not him. He, Wang Leitian, would still be making money!
...
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was fighting hard on top of cadavers. The costs were undoubtedly heavy. One must know that the NPC factions were different than ordinary monsters. For example, the former had higher intelligence.
Observing the violent assaults, the Centaurs’ chief decided to utilize guerrilla tactics using ranged attacks and avoid their vanguard.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth immediately suffered. Their numbers were simply not enough. Now they were at a disadvantage, causing the death toll to rise further.
Death did not matter, dropping equipment did not matter, losing levels did not matter. As long as the monsters were beaten, the price was worth paying. That was what he believed.
His Sovereign Equipment Set had an attribute: if a monster happened to kill its wearer, the wearer would neither lose any experience nor drop any equipment.
While others died with their equipment falling off, he merely lost some durability and nothing else.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was strong. He could unleash a purple Territory light barrier covering 70 yards, comparable with Li Yi’s golden light barrier.
The monsters within the purple light barrier not only slowed down, but their casting time was also delayed. Some even failed to cast any spells, and could only stick to normal attacks.
Although there were plenty of players who died and never came back, under his leadership, however, there were still many brave players who rose back to life and joined the battle.
The number of monsters was gradually decreasing...
After two days, only around 20,000 members stayed, while the NPC factions numbered over 50,000.
As the NPCs would die and not come back, victory seemed to be on the horizon.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth continued to fight, and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut quietly stopped by, used the ‘King’s Order’, and left.
The King’s Order could rally all the players in the country. As long as the players answer the order, they would be teleported to the site.
Because of her King’s Order, at least 500,000 players were pulled to the entrance of Shangri-La, and the remaining 50,000 monsters were quickly destroyed.
Without the Order, he would still need to fight for at least another two days.
However, the King of the Blades was not grateful but sneered at her efforts.
“Bigot. If you really wanted to help me, why don’t you do so at the beginning? Who are you trying to impress to show up this late?”
Her help made him even more resentful toward her.
The NPCs were eradicated, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth once again prevailed. Her Order also caused many players to continuously show up at an empty battlefield. With the monsters cleared, they could only see the entrance to Shangri-La.
The project was only in its development stage. The security system was offline, and the membership system had not been implemented, as such any players could enter and leave at will.
The traffic in Shangri-La had suddenly spiked, which made Tyrant Sword King the Fifth surprised. It was also at this moment he realized that it was beneficial to Shangri-La if he were a King.
...
When Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had gotten rid of the NPCs, Li Yi had left for Karan City. King Fifth’s little plot was under his control, and he need not do the dirty work himself.
He would find Aragon at Karan City to ask about the Hall of Fame set and the Emperor’s Sword.
White-named, no attributes. Li Yi was overwhelmed with unspeakable disappointment looking at these two artifacts.
It was almost a year since the quest was accepted. It was such a time-consuming and laborious task, but only to receive such useless equipment. The thought of this did not make him any better.
He wandered for a few days in the Demonic Forest, his level rose to 178 but he still could not find any traces of Aragon.
Compared with before, the crowd entering Karan City was getting too much.
He did not know which player actually killed Aragon, and now there was no one in the straw hut. Li Yi went three times a day and did not see Aragon refresh.
This made him disheartened.
If an NPC accidentally died, their affinity toward another would decline. The refreshed NPC would also not be the same as before, and its memory with the player would cease to exist.
After Tyrant Sword King the Fifth solved the NPC conundrum, Shangri-La began to show a touch of prosperity. Shen Lang, the number one intelligence officer of the Iron Alliance, would quickly inform Li Yi of such matters.
“Keep watch and report to me whenever things change,” Li Yi replied.
At 4 in the afternoon, Li Yi was resting in the Uninhabited Straw Hut before he received a message from Brother Windcloud Nine. There was only one sentence on it.
“It is done!”
