Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Silentdeath Jungle.

The three Bandits hiding in the dark shadows of the jungle were from the Demon Faction. They were members of an elite party from a large-scale Clan in the Demon Faction. At that time, because the distance was just a few hundred kilometers away, they were able to take on the risks and hardships while they journeyed across the Devil’s Continent to reach the region nearby Angel Faction’s Moonrise City. A big part of the reason was because they had noticed that the players in the Mythical Battlefield had decreased drastically. Because of that, they made the relatively smaller jungle as their outpost, giving them the chance to ambush any nearby players and parties from the Angel Faction. They stole equipment, battle points, and even Honor Points from them!

To prevent their whereabouts from being exposed due to their larger numbers, they decided to mobilize only fifteen members!

Three Bandits were leading the way as they were in charge of checking the routes. The remaining twelve of them would depend on the information as they picked the enemy league parties which they knew they could chew on, and create and construct combat strategies to bring them down. And that had allowed them to succeed in entering the Silentdeath Jungle.

By chance, they were attracted by the growling of the Darkshadow Archdemon and ended up arriving at this spot...

The three Bandits were all veterans in the Mythical Battlefield. After observing the equipment and other details of Brother Da and Gold Digger Babe who were keeping guard, the three Bandits immediately determined that the both of them were Tier 4 rookie players. They then quickly decided to eliminate the party that was in the middle of laying siege and annihilating the jungle’s boss!

At that time, Slayer’s Heart suddenly revealed astounding battle power...

His capability of going up against the Darkshadow Archdemon all by himself instantly made the three Bandits recognized that they were up against someone truly beyond their level. They were in shock for awhile, before quickly proceeding to retract their plan of attacking.

The enemy party actually had someone with the strength equivalent to a Captain of a Clan... that was quite troublesome!

Before, when they saw how inattentive and careless Brother Da and Gold Digger Babe were, they thought that this was a rookie party that had just entered the Mythical Battlefield for the first time. But the moment they learned about Slayer’s Heart’s strength, they immediately lost their courage to make their move as they observed the other members in the party once more. They did not think that a champion would work together with a bunch of rookies. It would be even more impossible for a champion to enter the Mythical Battlefield with a bunch of rookies!

After that, they swiftly discovered that the other eight players on the battlefield, other than the Titanwraith Berserker Slayer’s Heart who possessed tyrannical strength, were quite powerful and that lady Zephyrus Swordmaster, that Pyromancer, and that Aquamancer possessed some strength. And they also seemed to sync greatly on the battlefield! Also, there was one female Priest from the Bauhinia League who appeared to be managing the combat situation in place.

The five of them could pose quite a threat...

Despite their confidence in defeating them should they strike now, there were two uncertainties that were holding them back—one, the Level 47 Miniboss Darkshadow Archdemon, and two, Slayer’s Heart.

***

“Slayer’s Heart? That name... It feels like I’ve heard that name before. Anyone of you recall ever hearing that name?”

At the outskirts of Silentdeath Jungle, the Demon Faction party of twelve players that included Berserkers who appeared dark from head to toe, Swordsmasters, Bowmasters, and Elementalists concealed themselves in the dark shadows as they communicated in low voices.

The one leading on the forefront was an Umbra Swordmaster. He glanced across at the faces of his eleven other brothers. Ten of them were busy muttering to themselves and shaking their heads as they expressed no recollection toward Slayer’s Heart’s name.

The last person, a Priest, furrowed his brows very tightly as he pondered.

“Bauhinia League... Slayer’s Heart... Is he the brat who battled against the Deputy League Master of Maverick Vatican?”

“Yes yes yes!”

The Umbra Swordmaster who led in the front widened his eyes. Something had come to mind. ‘It was that man!’ The battle with Death Jesus, the second-in-command of Maverick Vatican, had made his name known to many players of the Demon Faction. It was because he lost his post as the Field Commander of the Bauhinia Clan after the battle, and vanished right after without a trace.

“That’s him!”

The Umbra Swordmaster took in a cold breath. He did not expect that after thinking so deeply for over half a day, the enemy league party that they had surrounded actually hid such a fearsome person!

One should know that Death Jesus was currently the number one leader of Fallen Clan of the Maverick Vatican League. He was one of importance and influence, and his voice was extremely loud and was easily heard in the Demon Faction. And now he had even made his way up to the level of Tier 5 supreme champion...

In the entire Demon Faction, there were only fourteen people who could engage Death Jesus and end the battle with a tie. They were very close to being invincible legends!

Meanwhile, the opponents he had battled with seriously in the past would have become extraordinary players...

Slayer’s Heart had suffered defeat by the hands of Death Jesus more than a month ago. But there was nothing humiliating about it. It had been a fair battle through and through. That indirectly hinted that Slayer’s Heart indeed possessed the strength to engage in a full-on battle with Death Jesus even back then.

After explaining it to the people around him, the bunch of them instantly understood the severity of the situation...

With their current strength, if they had to engage Death Jesus into battle, they would end up getting wiped out completely without doubt. Even if Slayer’s Heart did not hold a candle to him, the strength of a Field Commander was not be messed with. It would be akin to them digging their own graves.

“So what do we do now? Summon the others back?” As senior players in the Mythical Battlefield, they were very clear about the true meaning of a champion. But a few of them were also ignorant and so, they did not take it seriously.

“That was already something that happened more than a month ago, okay? Why are you all so afraid? What is there to be frightened about? All he has now is one Dark Gold weapon and three Gold equipment.”

“That’s right. That’s it. We’re dropping a bomb on them. At least we can take out half of them in a flash! Kill their Priest and the other Swordsmaster first. We don’t have to worry about the others at all. At the end of it, we shall combine our strengths to take out that fellow. We might even get the chance to make him drop that Dark Gold hammer when we’re done.”

“Agree!”

The words from the few of them had moved the two Berserkers in the party a little for a moment. It was obvious that they had their eyes on Slayer’s Heart’s equipment, especially that Dark Gold hammer. If they could get their hands on it...

“Are you all mad?!”

“You’re the mad one here! A great opportunity like this, why wouldn’t we take it? It’s not wrong to listen to me. We do it well, and we will get much more battle points from this than trying to ambush a few parties of rookies. And also, I dare say that at least four of them will have Honor Points on them! Don’t you want that?”

“...”

The moment he heard the term “Honor Points”, the Umbra Swordmaster went silent.

His Clan members were in the midst of preparing themselves for the Pet System. It was an opportunity for them to gain Honor Points by going into the Mythical Battlefield. There was a promise to reward any player with more than 200 Honor Points the spot of a Field Commander, and even receive a salary for it.

Did that mean even if the player did not have much strength, he would still charge confidently into the Mythical Battlefield? Were they all aiming for the reward? Was the position of Field Commander that appealing?

It did not take long for the Umbra Swordmaster to make his decision.

The title of a Field Commander was too tempting! Gritting his teeth, the Umbra Swordmaster made up his mind as he plunged his long golden sword into the ground. He then gathered his members around him.

“Listen carefully. As we’re going to make our move, you must give it your all when we go out there! Especially Elementalists! After we start engaging them, you just focus on throwing your Magic Scrolls. Don’t worry about consumption. The lost Magic Scrolls will be deducted from the loot after the battle. Warriors, just aim and target the...”

“After we’re done, get back to the city immediately!”

After putting it all out there, the Umbra Swordmaster pulled out his long sword from the ground. He cast away the doubts he previously had as he formed indestructible resolution within himself to go through with the plan and win it. “A long delay means lost time. In order to prevent that, let’s get a move on now!”

***

“Hmmm?”

Just as he was informing Gold Digger Babe about the urgency of the situation, Qin Ruo discovered that among the three Bandits who had been locked on by his own Elemental Perception the whole time, the one who approached Brother Da suddenly made a move. That Bandit was quietly circling around from the side as he avoided the iLittle Arrow’s line of vision as she was the only one who could see through his Stealth. That Bandit was getting nearer to Qin Ruo and that had startled him.

‘Are they ready to make their move?’

Qin Ruo frowned! He quickly sent out an urgent voice message to Gold Digger Babe and told her to immediately activate Stealth. He told her to check the vicinity to see how many from the Demon Faction were hiding. At the same time, Qin Ruo was quickly summoning an Aquarampart right in front of himself as he sensed every movement of the three Bandits behind him, making sure he was alert in case of a sudden attack.

Within three seconds, Gold Digger Babe anxiously sent a voice message back to Qin Ruo.

“There are twelve more people from the Demon Faction. They’re circling from both sides. Looks like they’re flanking us. What should we do now?” Had Qin Ruo not ask her to not panic earlier on in order to prevent her from sending voice messages and arouse suspicion, she would have sent her voice message into the party channel and her words would have echoed there.

“Don’t panic. How many Bowmasters are there on their side?” After Qin Ruo heard that there were only fifteen enemies within the vicinity, he instantly felt relief in his heart as he let out a breath.

But Gold Digger Babe was not like Qin Ruo. She could not ease herself no matter how hard she tried. She responded swiftly, getting more anxious by the second. “Only one. I’m following the group without the Bowmaster. We’re still not going to inform everyone about this?!”

While they were talking, Qin Ruo’s Elemental Perception detected the twelve players with red tags who were quietly moving into the range within fifty meters from their targets. Noticing that the opposition party was divided into two groups of six to flank them from both sides, Qin Ruo gulped down a small bottle of MP Potion while he told Gold Digger Babe to do something. In the meantime, he also began casting three Darkfrost Stings right beside Violet Orchid who stared at him most bizarrely!
