Chapter 578 - Controlled Time Offline

Chapter 578: Controlled Time Offline

“Offline? Isn’t it slightly inappropriate...” Spring Halo worriedly responded, “If they manage to guard the coordinates of where we went offline, isn’t it problematic?”

Offline was definitely the safer option comparatively. No matter how long the claws of Berserk Heavenlaw’s players were, they wouldn’t be able to reach them offline. However, this forest was ultimately not the safest of places. While they might be temporarily safe after going offline, they would lose control over their enemies. Once they come back online, they would be setting themselves as an easy target and it would be so much more dangerous.

“Hehe.” Fearless smiled before replying, “After suffering such a huge loss, the two guilds will definitely bring more people to surround us. Our motive for going offline is to avoid their upcoming wave of search. We’re not blindly going offline. Can you calculate the controlled time?”

Controlled time referred to the predicted time for enemy movement after going offline. This was basically an advanced judgement.

“Controlled time...”

Spring Halo calculated in his heart before replying, “We’re currently on the outside of the forest. Given the speed of the current players, they should be able to rush here within 2 minutes. This forest is neither extremely big nor extremely small. Even if they had their full force here, they would need at least 5 minutes to search the entire forest. Including some time for delay and a secondary search, we have at least 10 minutes of controlled time after going offline.”

“Very good!” Fearless nodded, “Let’s go offline now for a toilet break. We will come back 10 minutes later.”

After saying that, Fearless’ body disappeared as he left the game. Everyone else left subsequently after Fearless. Just like what Fearless predicted, after Wild Thunderheart and co. were killed, Berserk Thundergod was exceedingly infuriated.

“Two guilds with 1000 men and no one can find them? What are you idiots doing?” An exasperated Berserk Thundergod cried out. He could still forgive them if the only problem was that they couldn’t find them. However, the current situation was that the 1000 of them were obliterated. How was this logical?

Berserk Heavenly Thunder and co. were reprimanded so badly that none of them dared to say anything.

Only Wild Thunderheart dared to step out to explain, “Those fellas are not any ordinary experts. Every single one of them has the capability to annihilate any present player within seconds. In addition, they are especially good at concealing themselves in the forest. The enemy is in the dark while we are out in the open. This is the reason why we’re defeated.”

“Tsk! This is still not an acceptable reason as to how all of you are annihilated by a mere group of ten people!” As the top rank expert of Berserk Heavenlaw, Wild Thunderheart was still respected by Berserk Thundergod. Therefore, he didn’t label Wild Thunderheart as useless even in the fit of anger.

“We have no other choice. The ten of them are capable of defending against hundreds of enemies. Moreover, the forest is so huge that we have no choice but to split up to search for them. When we split up, we are exterminated wave by wave.” Wild Thunderheart continued to explain.

“Are you implying that we have insufficient manpower?” Berserk Thundergod asked.

“En, yes it is not enough..l. If we can have five hundred men in one group, they will have nowhere to run.” Wild Thunderheart said.

“...”

Berserk Thundergod was dumbfounded by Wild Thunderheart’s request. Five hundred men in one group? Ten groups would be equal to five thousand men. In total, Berserk Heavenlaw had a total of about eight thousand players. Currently, only about five thousand of them were online. Does this mean that if they wanted to capture these ten people, their entire guild has to be active?

However, at the thought of what the Quan Zhen Sect had on their hands, Berserk Thundergod contained his anger forcefully before replying in a faint voice, “Alright, you don’t have to explain anymore. I will personally handle this matter.”

After saying that, Berserk Thundergod turned to Berserk Heavenly Thunder beside him, “Get everyone to gather at the main hall right now. I do not believe these fellas can escape the clutches of all five thousand of us!”

“Chief, that person is offline...”

Little Zhang from the game monitoring crew had been monitoring Wang Yu ever since the check. After losing Wang Yu’s signal, he turned to inform 9527.

“Offline? What about those people surrounding him?” After Wang Yu left, 9527 had his men constantly monitoring Wang Yu’s movement and whereabouts. Everything Wang Yu and his sect did were all monitored by 9527 and his crew. This included how they were forced into the forest by two large guilds.

The people working for the game loved watching players’ PK. After all, PK between players will result in a demand for good equipment. Equipment are bought using gold and gold is exchanged using Renminbi...

However, 9527 was only interested in monitoring Wang Yu in PK to see if he could find any clues of how Wang Yu externally modified. Who knew that in just a blink of an eye, this group of players actually went offline?

“They were obliterated...” Little Zhang replied.

“All of them? Weren’t there over a thousand men?” 9527 cried out in shock.

“Yes, there were but they were all killed by the eleven of them.”

“What?!” 9527 was so shocked that he almost fell off the chair. “Hurry up and show me.”

9527 was certain that Wang Yu externally modified. Eleven of them exterminated one thousand enemies was certainly not within his imagination. Now, he was starting to suspect that Wang Yu was not the only one to externally modify.

F*ck...

Little Zhang hurriedly replayed the scene while 9527 started analysing the clip...

Scenes of how the Quan Zhen Sect lured, ambushed, confused and disturbed their enemies were displayed on the screen.

The more 9527 watched on, the more astonished he became, “Wow... Mystic Barrier, Fantasy Array... Eh... This... All these skills are nothing out of the ordinary. They actually used their tactics to compensate for the difference in numbers.”

Even though 9527 was initially not interested in the battles between players, Quan Zhen Sect’s way of fighting was interesting enough to catch the attention of 9527. He was incredibly impressed by how they relied on their surrounding to deal with the vast number of enemies. They made full use of every player’s ability to win this seemingly impossible battle.

These extraordinary experts were, without a doubt, eye-catching but the most terrifying person among them was the one behind all these tactics. If this was not in a game, this could definitely be labelled as a classic military campaign.

“If they have already exterminated their opponents, why are they going offline?” 9527 couldn’t help but break away from the topic of external modification.

Little Zhang pointed to the periphery of the forest, “Look! There are over six thousand players coming from both the Ironcliff Fortress and Thunderstorm City.”

“Oh, they went offline to hide...” 9527 was able to discern the Quan Zhen Sect’s reason for going offline when he saw this. At that point in time, he instantly felt disappointed.

9527 initially believed that these fellas would still have some top tricks up their sleeves to continue fighting. Who knew that eventually, they still chose to hide offline. It seemed like they had exhausted their limited abilities already. Of course, what they had achieved thus far was already exceptionally impressive. Hiding offline was merely another glamorous blemish.

“Alright, seems like there will not be anything interesting anymore. However, continue monitoring the situation and inform me if anything pops up,” a disappointed 9527 said.

He was only interested in Wang Yu’s external modification. As for the other matters, only Fearless’ commands and tactics distracted him a little. Now that the Quan Zhen Sect went offline, he was naturally no longer interested in looking at the other players.

“En, I got it!” Little Zhang nodded as he continued to monitor.
