Chapter 163: True Sea Clan Players

“She is a hostage, but not a hostage of Eastern Sea City. She is a hostage from the Land of Exile!” A hint of disdain flashed in Joanna’s light blue eyes. “Nowadays, the Human Race has lost all hope. The Land of Exile is also plotting for itself. Using that important Sea Clan hostage, the Land of Exile gained some benefits from the Sea Clan, promising never to harm that Sea Clan figure.”

So that was it. It seemed the Crimson Poison Mist in the Land of Exile was created by the Land of Exile after obtaining the production method from the Sea Clan.

“And what benefit would killing that important Sea Clan figure bring to Eastern Sea City?” Chen Mo asked again.

Doing so would only anger the Sea Clan.

“Adventurer, that just shows your youth. Who would do something that offers no benefit? Moreover, sneaking into the Land of Exile to kill an important figure is no easy task. Besides our Human Race, the Sea Clan also has a mortal enemy, the Fire Rock Tribe. These two races are locked in a fight to the death. The Fire Rock Tribe really wants to kill that important Sea Clan figure. As long as we fulfill this request for them, our Eastern Sea City can gain substantial help from the Fire Rock Tribe. Eastern Sea City is sure to suffer heavy losses in this conflict with the Sea Clan. After this great battle, if I don’t find a way, Eastern Sea City will eventually be destroyed.” Joanna sighed.

So that was the case. Chen Mo nodded, finally understanding.

“That’s the situation. If you accept my commission, kill that important Sea Clan figure named Haiweila, and bring back the Necklace of the Sea God that she never parts with as a Token, I will give you a Dark Gold Weapon suitable for your Level as a reward.” Joanna said emphatically.

“Verbal agreement?” Chen Mo frowned.

Joanna had talked this much, but still no System Notification about accepting a Quest had appeared. Clearly, the Quest would proceed in a different form. For verbally agreed Quests, an npc might not keep their promise.

“I cannot let anyone know I sent you. No evidence can be left behind. But I am the City Lord of a city. You don’t need to worry about my credibility.” Joanna said lightly.

That was true. As the City Lord of Eastern Sea City, one of the three major Human Race Main Cities, she probably didn’t need to deceive a mere Adventurer like him. As long as he successfully killed that important Sea Clan figure named Haiweila and obtained the Necklace of the Sea God, the benefits Joanna gained from the Fire Rock Tribe would far exceed the reward she paid.

The Dark Gold Weapon he would get was probably just Level 25 or 30 equipment. Even though Dark Gold Equipment was very rare, it wasn’t much for a Main City Lord.

“Alright, I accept. I hope you keep your promise then.” Chen Mo nodded in agreement.

Dark Gold Equipment was very attractive to him. Dark Gold Equipment had high base attack power. Once equipped, it would be a massive upgrade, significantly increasing his attack power. Such a Quest was hard to come by for others. Plus, having been to the Land of Exile once, he was quite confident he could complete this Quest.

“Young Adventurer, don’t worry. This is a Teleportation Scroll to the Land of Exile. After this city attack ends, go to the Land of Exile. Kill Haiweila as soon as possible.” Joanna chuckled lightly, reassuring Chen Mo, and took out a Magic Scroll to give to him.

Chen Mo took the scroll, thought for a moment, and asked, “Eastern Sea City will most likely lose in this city attack. Eastern Sea City won’t be destroyed, will it? Will those powerful Sea Clan figures seize the chance to attack?”

“How could there be no problem?” Joanna glanced lightly at Chen Mo. “If Eastern Sea City is defeated, the losses will be great. But the Sea Clan wouldn’t dare push too far; they will stop when they’ve gained enough.”

Having said that, Joanna waved her hand, signaling for Chen Mo to leave, and said no more.

The npc old man brought Chen Mo back to the first-floor Great Hall.

Eastern Sea City would probably be defeated soon. Chen Mo still wanted to exchange for a pair of Purple Equipment shoes and learn Powerful Throw, leveling the skill to intermediate for convenience.

But he was still over a thousand Points short. Chen Mo decided to go outside the city to earn enough Points before Eastern Sea City was defeated.

“Take me out.”

Xue Ye Hua had basically finished exchanging her Points, but she was still a little short. She quickly asked Chen Mo to take her along.

The two had already had intimate contact repeatedly, so Chen Mo didn’t stand on ceremony with her. He directly took Xue Ye Hua and left the city. But what Chen Mo couldn’t understand was that Xue Ye Hua absolutely refused to walk behind, insisting on walking in front.

“Over there, are those Sea Clan Players?”

“It seems so, but there seem to be some Human Race Players too.”

“Let’s go check. If there are Sea Clan Players, let’s take the chance to kill a few. That would be a huge gain!”

“Let’s go!”

The two passed through the Crimson Poison Mist and secretly exited the city gate. Just after they put away Sesshylow, Chen Mo and Xue Ye Hua heard two teams of Players not far away discussing in low voices.

Killing one Sea Clan Player, even in a six-person team, would give each person 40 Points, more than ten times the Points from killing monsters. Hearing that there were Sea Clan Players nearby, these Players were tempted.

They had the advantage of numbers. Even if their buffs weren’t as good as those Sea Clan Players, with their numerical superiority, killing a few Sea Clan Players shouldn’t be a problem.

Moreover, their strength was not weak!

After the two teams made their decision, they immediately moved in one direction.

“Let’s go, follow them.” Chen Mo and Xue Ye Hua exchanged a glance and decided to follow and see.

If there really were Sea Clan Players, the two of them cooperating to kill them would quickly gather the Points they each needed.

“Brother Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, it seems you’ve been discovered. Two teams are coming over.”

Those two Human Race Players were not mistaken; they had indeed discovered Sea Clan Players. These Sea Clan Players were none other than Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and the others.

Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, No Lack of Money, and others were still outside Eastern Sea City watching the situation develop. Having stayed there for such a long time, it was normal for others to discover them.

“Do you need my help to kill them? My people aren’t that amazing, but killing a few ordinary Players is still not a problem.”

Then, No Lack of Money laughed heartily.

“Boss Money, you jest. We can handle two teams. It’s a good chance to let you, Boss Money, witness the power of true Sea Clan Players. There are quite a few Sea Clan Players now, but most are in name only. Their strength is far inferior to us true Sea Clan Players. Perhaps after seeing this, Boss Money, you might change your mind.” Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon smiled, extremely confident.

“Oh, I’d like to see just how powerful you are!” No Lack of Money’s eyes lit up.

“Good. Since Boss Money is interested, let’s not disappoint him. Prodigal Son’s Return, begin. Make it quick.” Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon said to the Warrior who had spoken earlier.

Prodigal Son’s Return nodded. His figure moved as he took the lead, charging towards the two teams of Human Race Players.

Behind Prodigal Son’s Return were a Sea Clan Knight, Archer, Hunter, and Mage, with Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon at the very back.

It was a team of six people, facing two teams of Human Race Players in the distance, twelve enemies.

No Lack of Money narrowed his eyes, watching the two sides about to engage with great interest.

“They really are Sea Clan Players!”

“They’re charging at us! Just six people dare to fight us twelve head-on? These Sea Clan Players must think we’re easy to deal with!”

“Heh, daring to look down on us is their great misfortune!”

“Six people, not too many, but not too few either. Good thing we came; this trip isn’t a loss!”

The twelve people, seeing Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and his five companions charging towards them, all showed a hint of ferocity on their faces.

These twelve were all elite members of the second-level Guild “Brother Alliance”. Their combat power was far beyond that of ordinary Players. These six Sea Clan Players, daring to be so overconfident, clearly mistook them for ordinary Player teams.

They certainly didn’t mind, but they would soon make these Sea Clan Players understand the consequences of underestimating them!

“Kill!”

With half again their number, the twelve Brother Alliance elites spread out in a semicircle to encircle Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and the others, wanting to use their numerical advantage to quickly wipe out the opponent.

“Kill!” Prodigal Son’s Return also let out a fierce shout.

The melee fighters were quickly closing in, about to fight at close quarters. The Brother Alliance’s ranged Players, confirming that all six enemies were within their attack range, immediately began their attack.

Six ranged attacks suddenly shot towards Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and his five companions!

Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and his five companions looked at the flying arrows, fireballs, and ice arrows without fear, merely giving a slight wave with the light blue Staffs in their hands!

“Call of the Sea!”

In an instant, a large expanse of seawater suddenly appeared. All eighteen people from the three teams were standing in water!

“Ripples of the Sea!”

The Sea Clan Knight walking in the middle swung his Knight’s Hammer, and the seawater below flew up, forming layers of watery ripples in the air.

The Brother Alliance’s six ranged attacks, after passing through several layers of the watery ripples, lost all their force, either falling quietly to the ground or disappearing without a trace.

“What’s going on! What skill is this!”

The twelve Brother Alliance members, witnessing this scene, all changed their expressions dramatically.

Unusual! This Sea Clan Player team was absolutely unusual!

The Brother Alliance’s twelve people had such confidence in themselves before the battle for good reason.

During this Sea Clan city attack, they had also killed many Sea Clan Players and seen many Sea Clan skills, but never had any Sea Clan Player used such magical skills as these before them.

“Don’t be fooled! Kill!”

But these twelve Brother Alliance members had rich combat Experience. After a moment of alarm, they advanced instead of retreating!

The six Warriors in front fixed their eyes on Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon and suddenly quickened their pace.

They realized that this person, who seemed to be a Priest, Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, was the core of this team. As long as they killed him, this team’s combat power would drop by at least half!

They had six melee fighters. Once they got close, one skill each would be enough to finish Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon!

“Sea Principle, Whale Swallow!”

Prodigal Son’s Return glanced disdainfully at the six people trying to charge over. A deep blue greatsword appeared in his hand!

With his light shout, he swept the greatsword in his hand through the shallow seawater at their feet!

In the next moment, a huge whale formed from condensed seawater suddenly burst out from the shallow water below with a roar, biting down fiercely from above onto the six people!
