He was originally worried that Bei Ming would ask him and Paopao to go to the front line to die, but after seeing the management's reply to follow them, the worry in his throat suddenly fell.
"Momo, the president and vice president are here, so let's not join in the fun. I believe they will successfully deal with the boss."
Colorful Bubble could hear the sense of relief in Zhan Shang's tone, but she didn't object at all, because who told her that she didn't want to participate either?
She'd been locked up in the Colosseum for so many days, wasting her time leveling up and completing quests. Now that she'd finally returned to the city, she didn't want to risk her own life fighting again.
Let those activists in the guild who love to show off do it.
As for her and Zhan Shang, they should just lie down and enjoy the fruits of the war.
They did not participate in the previous fight against the Deep Sea Python Boss. The reason given to Yuan Qinglan was that they were exploring a newly released dungeon and could not come for the time being.
But in fact, that copy was not important at all. It only had a simple mode, which was obviously designed for low-level players to practice. However, Yuan Qinglan was busy dealing with the boss and had no time to understand it in depth, so she assumed that she and Zhan Shang really couldn't spare time.
After the boss battle was over, thanks to her relationship with Yuan Qinglan, she successfully got the latter to share some of the boss's spoils with her.
So you see, there's no need for them to make a big fuss, they can even just lie down and easily get the treatment that those activists can't enjoy~
With such good benefits, why wouldn't her colorful bubble just go out and die?
He raised his chin arrogantly, then walked towards West Street where the guild was located with Zhan Shang, chatting and laughing.
Two major guilds have already bought bases outside the city, namely Sword and Rose and Crowned King. Seeing that these two guilds will soon move out of the narrow West Street, while there is no news from the Beiming Capital, Colorful Bubble feels a little uncomfortable.
They are clearly the eighth ranked guild, so why don’t Yuan Qinglan and her brother have money to buy land!
Muttering all the way, she walked to the door of her own guild and was about to push the door open as usual, when suddenly...
[You have been kicked out of the guild [Northern City]]
[You are a visitor and are temporarily unable to enter the guild's temporary residence. Please obtain approval from the guild management first. Thank you]
The colorful bubble pupils glared: "What the hell! Why was I kicked out? Who was so blind as to delete the wrong person?"
She turned her head away angrily, wanting Zhan Shang to comfort her, but the person at the bottom of the stairs looked even uglier.
"Mo Mo... I was kicked out too..." Zhan Shang stammered, with the same expression of disbelief.
In the cellar of Area 5 of Ares City.
After hearing the three giants gradually walking away, Yuan Qinglan led the NPCs out of the cellar one by one.
Since the rescue mission had been completed by Yin Yao, the NPCs thanked her and walked towards their homes one by one. Yuan Qinglan looked at their backs and after confirming that there was no danger, she began to deal with the decision she had made - kicking them out.
A few minutes ago, she saw the conversation between the management and Zhizhanzhishang in the guild channel, and she was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe!
What kind of people are these!
If he hadn't been allowed to join the guild because he was Momo's boyfriend, how could his level of skill have caught her eye?
What’s even more infuriating is that when she chatted privately with Momo, she actually replied, “Wait for your triumphant return.”
Is this what people say?
In an instant, countless fragments flashed through her mind, from the fights in kindergarten, to the quarrels in elementary school, to the arguments in middle school... It seemed that during the years that she had known Momo, the two of them had never stopped.
She once doubted how good such a friendship was, but when she heard people outside constantly spreading the word that they envied the simple and unpretentious friendship between the two of them, she immediately accepted it all.
However, at this moment, thinking back to what Momo had done in the game, how she'd slandered other players out of jealousy, how she'd made no contribution to the guild, how she'd been lazy and greedy, and yet she'd even asked her for her spoils...
Does such a person really consider her a friend?
Or are you just using her as a free ATM, a shield, and a tool to show off?
Yuan Qinglan suddenly came to his senses and sneered.
Haha, she won’t be as easy to fool as before!
What best sisterhood, what most enviable best friends, just feed them to the dogs.
She, Yuan Qinglan, doesn't need a vampire who only asks for things!
The person she wants to meet is someone like Yin Yao, who is number one on the list, who is upright and honest in his conduct, who strives for everything on his own and who is respected by everyone!
On the other side, seeing his sister kicking the two people away, Bei Ming curved his eyebrows and showed a relieved expression.
Yes, it turns out that brothers and sisters are connected by heart, and even their thoughts are exactly the same~
Suddenly, loud cheers came from the group of players in front.
"Look, the storm giant has fallen!"
"The Thunder Giant's health is running low! There is hope, we absolutely have hope!"
In the ruins, a storm giant that was huge enough to cover the sky and the sun howled miserably a few times, exhaled weakly from its raised mouth, and with the last breath, its health bar completely returned to zero.
One of the three giants was finally eliminated, and the players' joy was beyond words.
At this time, two hours had passed since the battle. The players fought and ran all the way from the great plains below the Kambul Mountains to the southernmost tip of Ares City, a distance of dozens of kilometers. They didn't know how they managed to hold on.
The soles of the boots were worn out, the durability of the weapons was exhausted, and I didn't know how much blue and red potions I had drunk. No battle had ever been so intense and difficult.
But they never gave up and always persevered!
And behind this persistence, what was gained was the remains of a world boss as high as level 86!
This victory is worth their joy.
But while we are happy, we should not forget that this achievement was achieved at the cost of the entire city of Ares.
The prosperous second largest city was completely razed to the ground by giants before many players even had the chance to set foot there.
There were broken walls and broken bricks and tiles everywhere. Standing on the collapsed ruins and looking north, the whole city was in desolation.
Some players suddenly felt that killing a giant was nothing, and their faces were gloomy and melancholy.
"Brothers, don't lose heart! There are still two hours until the giants reach the Royal City. Two hours! We can do a lot! If you give up now, the Royal City will become the second Ares City! Are you willing to watch your homeland destroyed?"
Someone in the crowd shouted something, and after a few seconds of silence, the solemn atmosphere was broken.
"That's right, the Thunder Giant's health bar is only 38% left. If we focus all our firepower, we will definitely be able to kill it before the next map."
"We have a lot of players, so there's nothing to be afraid of. Just go in and it's over!"
"Everything is for the mainland! Charge!"
After saying that, he was as energized as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and headed towards the giant's next destination.
Then, everyone was dumbfounded.
The map bordering the south of Ares City is none other than Hughes Highlands, where players mine iron ore.
The reason why it is called Hughes Highlands is because of its high terrain, like a natural fortress, stretching between the northern city of Ares and the southern royal city.
In the past, players would start mining from the north gate of the royal city and reach the destination by climbing through a dead forest on the map.
The Deadwood Forest is a big slope, and it will take some time for players without a private teleportation array to climb up, so every time they come here, they will work hard to mine until their backpacks are full before going back.
After all, no one wants to climb hills all day long :)
The players were all prepared to climb the slope, but when they came out of Ares City, they were surprised to find that there was no slope at all. It was just a huge, high, vertical cliff!
This means that if they want to get to Hughes Highlands, they either have to climb it with their bare hands or go around to the south from the map next to it.
But the question is, where do they have so much time?
No matter which one they choose, the giant will probably have left before they even arrive.
"Fuck, what kind of outrageous design is this? Do people still want to play it?" The player who arrived first couldn't help but curse.
"This scene is so realistic, I really want to thank the entire planning team!"
"Complaint! How can there not even be a road?"
Unfortunately, no matter how much you vent, after cursing, everyone realizes that they still have to do what they have to do.
High ground must be climbed, and giants must be stopped.
They've come this far, are they really going to give up? Impossible!
So the players racked their brains and showed off their skills. Some used wings to carry the players around them and flew up; some used special climbing props to carry their companions all the way up; and some summoners used their skills, thorn vines, to roll everyone up one by one.
In short, there are more solutions than problems. Even if there is no direct way, they will fight to find a way out!
Xia Yao was naturally one of the first players to land on the highlands. She stood on the edge of the highland map, which was the edge of the cliff, squinting her eyes and looking at the two giants walking towards them.
Of the only two remaining giants, the Frost Giant is the tallest, estimated to be over 200 meters tall, followed by the Thunder Giant, who is half a head shorter, at about 180 meters.
This height is just right, and most of the body can be blocked by Hughes Heights, which is 142 meters above sea level.
The giant's movements are not very flexible, so it would probably take a long time for him to climb to this height.
This creates a great opportunity for players.
Xia Yao's eyes flashed, she drew her bow and shot arrows forward one by one!
Seeing this, the ranged players also started attacking, but their output was far less than Xia Yao's. Basically, it took four or five hits to match her output.
But so what?
Even the most insignificant shrimp can become meat, a little bit of it adds up to a lot, a little bit of it adds up to a tower. At most, they can just pile up in numbers, but the power they finally gather together will not be small.
After seven or eight minutes, the Thunder Giant's health bar dropped to 30%, while the Frost Giant's health bar did not change much, still maintaining at around 60%.
The two huge monsters were about to reach the edge of the cliff.
Xia Yao quickly withdrew her hand and warned the people around her: "Retreat, they are coming up."
A large group of players ran back in a rush.
As she expected, the two giants faced the high ground across their chests. They placed their arms on the ground, dug their fingers into the soil, and began to climb up to the high ground.
Unfortunately, they are too heavy, and even though the muscles in their arms are clearly bulging, they cannot be as flexible as players.
I was stuck at the edge of the map for a moment and could only roar helplessly.
The players were delighted when they saw it.
"Hahaha, these two big guys are helpless!"
"It was my mistake. I take back what I said about the planner. I didn't expect this cliff to actually act as a barrier. Hey, happy~"
"Thank God, thank the earth, thank Hughes Heights! It gave us the advantage to fight back~"
The arms, upper chests and heads of the two giants are all exposed to the players.
The melee players who have been waiting and wanting to show their skills finally have their own highlight moment.
They rushed forward, slashing, piercing, and strangling the giant's arms again and again!
After more than twenty minutes, the Thunder Giant's health bar dropped to 10.8%.
Suddenly, the earth began to tremble.
Xia Yao raised her eyes and found thick dark clouds covering all around.
Oh no, the Thunder Giant is about to use his ultimate move!
She quickly switched to bard mode and waved her fan, adding several layers of buffs to everyone behind her. At the same time, she ordered: "Everyone retreat!"
Now her position in the hearts of players is unmatched, and whatever she says goes.
So when the players heard her words, they stopped fighting, put away their weapons and ran back.
A flash of lightning suddenly flashed, followed by the second, the third... the dark sky was instantly illuminated.
A huge roar followed, as if the sky was collapsing and the mountains and rivers were shaking.
The players felt a buzzing in their heads, and then they saw that they were hit by the thunder and burn debuffs.
The thunder ruptured their eardrums, instantly deafening them and making them unable to communicate.
The burns caused blisters on their skin. They couldn't hold their weapons and dropped them to the ground. They were also unable to move because any movement would cause the equipment to rub against their skin, causing severe pain and reducing their health!
It’s so infuriating! The boss has already given them a buff effect, how can they still win the prize!
The hope that had finally risen was extinguished in the blink of an eye. This feeling of ups and downs is unbearable for anyone.
The players were speechless, irritated, and anxious...
I just hope that the 5-minute countdown of negative status will disappear soon!
However, what they didn't realize was that the lightning not only caused them negative status and hindered the players' actions, but also struck off a thick layer of soil on the edge of the cliff.
These piles of soil at the feet of the giant naturally form a downward slope, just like the dead wood forest that players often walk through.
With this slope, the giant no longer needs to use his arms, but can just step up step by step on the soil to reach Hughes Heights.
Xia Yao lay on the scorched ground, the only player in the entire venue who was not affected by any debuff, watching with bated breath.
The thunder giant rolled his eyes evilly, his gaze sweeping over the immobilized humans.
Suddenly, its eyes fixed on a certain direction.
Xia Yao snorted in her heart. Sure enough, she was discovered.
