Chapter 451: Are you a Soy Boy now?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After leaving the Mythical Battlefield and returning to Savis Town where he trained the pet “Little Clown” (Mutated Mannequin Spider), Brother Da still did not neglect to update the news in regards to Violet Orchid’s, Violent Army Clan’s, and Fallen Angels’s Honor Points.

Especially after Fallen Angels impressively caught up to the Top 3… Little Clown’s level speedily rose to Level 20 and had gradually shown its potential of being a Tier 3 Monster. It was then that Brother Da felt comfortable enough to check the leaderboard every ten minutes as he was concerned to see if Fallen Angels could maintain its place on the Angel Faction’s Party Honor Point Leaderboard.

Brother Da seemed to be more concerned than Qin Ruo was about the Angel Faction’s number one Clan. Due to this, he was always anxious. Whenever he summoned up the leaderboard, it almost always a nerve-wracking experience—he was worried that suddenly someone took steroids and beat his best friend on the leaderboard.

When Brother Da, anxiously, summoned the Party Honor Point Leaderboard again…

Suddenly!

The first of the leaderboard was changed to Netherspirit’s Claw, which had more than 700 Honor Points. Brother Da felt his heart sink.

‘Second place: Scarlet Dynasty???

‘Shit! What the hell? Stupid Ruo Ruo! Are you a soy boy now?

‘So… who’s next…?

When he saw who was in third place, he almost wanted to kill himself.

‘F*ck. Fallen Angels is not even on the Top 3??’

Then, he hastily scrolled down further…

‘Huh?’

Then he realized something was off.

Just mere moments ago, Fallen Angels was a party that had over 700 Honor Points. How was it possible for it to drop out of top ten in the Party Honor Points Leaderboard? Yet, its name was not even amongst the top twenty. Could it be that…

Badump! Badump!

There was one more possibility… and that possibility made Brother Da’s heart anxiously beat even faster than before.

He hastily summoned up the Clan Honor Points Leaderboard!

‘Aha! There it is!’

First place: Fallen Angels, Founder: Qin Ruo. Honor Points: 1087.

This line of information with huge font, glaringly stood on top of the leaderboard. More importantly, it was also the only one on that board…

Netherspirit’s Claw was thrown behind long ago… Fallen Angels was now showing on the Clan Honor Points Leaderboard, a telling sign for one single fact.

“Fallen Angels is now the top Clan in the Angel Faction!”

Brother Da took in a few deep breaths, with his chest puffing up and down his face showing a mix of joy and sadness. Then, in front of countless players who were standing around him, he started throwing a weird tantrum.

“You bloody scoundrel! How could you not tell me you’ve already ranked up to a clan?! Do you know how worried I was earlier?! I’ll kill you when you see you at work later!” Despite his grumbling, his tone carried immense joy.

The surrounding players looked at him at awe and in silence…

He noticed the shocked expression of the players around him. “What? You’ve never seen an ugly spider before?” As he uttered this, Little Clown who was flying around like a bat fighting off monsters staggered a little… and almost got hit by a Winter Wendigo’s Frost Bullet.

“Little Ruo’s clan has already been established. We should make haste too.” Violet Orchid, who was standing in the middle of Korzalash Swamp—one of the most dangerous areas in the Mythical Battlefield, blissfully closing the Clan Honor Points Leaderboard and spoke to Slayer’s Heart and the other Tier 5 class players around her.

“I didn’t think the first party to rank up to become a clan would be his… Ha, Netherspirit’s Claw and Scarlet Dynasty must be really pissed by now,” said a few Tier 5 members who were previously under Bauhinia Clan, with complex expressions on their faces.

They surely did expect that the three biggest clans would lose to a solo player in their first round of competition. What a great irony.

“The guys at Netherspirit’s claw might be. But we, the ones at Scarlet Bauhinia, would surely not.”

Looking at her team members with her beautiful eyes, Violet Orchid said enigmatically, with a deep meaning behind her words. They were Bauhinia’s closest core members so there was nothing to hide.

“Sister Violet?”

“So… You and Scarlet’s boss…”

Realizing what’s going on, they shut their mouths and threw Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart a surprised and inquiring look.

Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart looked at one another then shook their heads. Violet Orchid let out a sigh. “You shouldn’t be digging into these kinds of things too much…” And as she finished her words, Slay’s Heart firmly spoke to his comrades, “Just remember one thing: We and Scarlet are colleagues. Even if our relationship turns grim, we would never be enemies. Got it?”

As he finished his words, Violet Orchid threw him a dejected glance.

Seeing this, the team members who were worrying for their leaders’ relationship, looked at one another and smiling in approval—as though having lifted a heavy weight off from their shoulders.

‘Yes, this is good enough for us.’

Slay’s Heart’s words and Violet Orchid’s silent approval was more than enough an explanation for them.

“Alright, we’ve wasted enough time. Let’s all activate our perception in full force and find that big lizard! It’s a ten Honor-Point Mission; there isn’t much time to waste.”

Under Violet Orchid’s command, all six of them spread out like a web, and continued further into the swamp.

Violet Orchid secretly sent a private voice message to Slayer’s Heart, with a slight huffy tone. “Come on. How could you be chattier than us the ladies? You spoke too much!”

Slay’s Heart smiled shyly and did not say a word. Violet Orchid continued on, “Fine, let’s just move on. Quail and the others are more serious so it’s best that we don’t say much about this. Or else, Scarlet’s effort would all be wasted.”

Hearing this, Slayer’s Heart replied seriously, “You don’t really have to worry this much… The sooner everyone knows this, the sooner everyone could devise a plan together and solve this earlier.”

Violet Orchid turned her face back to him, looking deeply into his eyes and said, “Scarlet’s plan is flawless and he is also a much more far-sighted than me… Both you and I know that this is by far the best way to go about it… Promise me, just stick to the plan and continue playing this role with me, alright?”

“…”

Looking at the chaotic sky above his head, Slayer’s Heart closed his eyes and recalled Scarlet Bauhinia’s final farewell to him at Savis Town and his plan. Slayer’s Heart felt a reignited fire of brotherhood that he had sealed away long ago since he left his post as Bauhinia’s League Commander.

Taking in a long breath, Slayer’s Heart looked into Violet Orchid’s beautiful hopeful and determined eyes and nodded.

“Okay! Let’s keep up the act.”

When he uttered this, Violet Orchid saw something in his eyes—a surge of vigor and determination.

‘He’s back.’

Back to the Mythical Battlefield, after Qin Ruo gathered over 1300 Honor Points, Black Jail Party was still 200 Honor Points short to rank up into a clan. Seeing how Fallen Angels suddenly sped ahead by 500 points and above from his own party, Black God was completely speechless. He was now not interested in asking Carefree how Netherclaw was doing anymore and dejectedly hurried Qin Ruo, who was already prepared to return to town, out of Mythical Battlefield.

“Motherf*cker, I knew it! If I allow you to kill steal my preys further, I would never get any Honor Points at this rate. Just get the hell outta my face!”

With a wry smile, Qin Ruo nodded at Black God and then spread his Angelic Wings. He then vanished in a blink of an eye.

Fallen Angels had now ranked up to become a clan and had also already accumulated more than 1300 Honor Points. They had achieved so much that the Parties behind them would need to take a lot of time before they could catch up to them. In other words, there was no point in him earning more Honor Points any further.

Besides, Fateless and the rest were still working hard on the Mythical Battlefield so their clan’s Honor Points would still be accumulating anyway. Qin Ruo felt that it was more important for him to resume the forging quest for his Ring of Honor…

Qin Ruo was rather interested in the basic stats that a Dark Gold quality Ring of Honor held. All he needed to do was to defeat seven Tier 5 bosses. With Qin Ruo’s current strength, defeating them one by one should not be much of an issue.

Thus, he inquired his clan members via the clan chat about the possible locations of Tier 5 bosses at the Mythical Battlefield while gliding in the air using his Aqua Wings.

Sure, he could find a lot of bosses in the Monster Mountains but many of those were not suitable to as targets for his quest. They could either be too high-level or a Level 50 Elite Boss. If he could acquire a direct location and their stats from his clan members, he could just glide over and save a lot more time.

“Huh? You wanna do some treasure hunting at this hour? Wouldn’t it be a bad time?” a clear inquiry voice responded to him almost immediately. It was Helga.

“No, not treasure hunting. I’m completing a quest,” Qin Ruo secretly replied.

“Oh, so how many members you need?”

“What?”

Surprised, Qin Ruo replied in a hurry, “No, there is no need for partying up for this one. Just tell me the location of the boss you find, with its attributes and stats will do.”

As he finished his words, Black Rock’s nifty laughs could be heard from the clan chat. “Hehe, looks like our Lady Helga doesn’t fully know the extent of our lead’s strength…”

“Agreed.”

Subjugator’s voice also joined in the chat in agreement. “Look, this guy brought us to the Graveyard of the Gods since we were Tier 4 and took out several Tier 5 Bosses and Elite Boss. Then, he brought us to butt heads with some Tier 6 Boss… Then brought us down to Buried City and dusted away twenty Tier 5 Minibosses and was the first to place a Soul Imprint there… Lady Helga, why would you think someone like that would need our help to take down a Tier 5 Boss?”

“Hey, you two! Could you stay focused on the monsters you’re fighting in the Mythical Battlefield? Don’t go dying out there and taint our clan’s name.”

Qin Ruo immediately shut the two boasters up.

“…”

Black Rock and Subjugator laughed then said no more.

After a few seconds of silence, Helga spoke again with info this time.

As expected from someone who was recommended by Violet Orchid, after sorting out her shock of hearing all of Qin Ruo’s deeds, she immediately organized several well-known Tier 5 Bosses’ background and location on Mythical Battlefield into a report and sent it to Qin Ruo.

This report was simple and coherent—which helped Qin Ruo a lot…

All seven attribute types Tier 5 Bosses’ background, location and stats were all organized into this one concise report, showing us that Helga was rather familiar and experienced with the Mythical Battlefield.

After hearing Qin Ruo’s thanks, Helga also cautioned. “Oh right, there’s one place I would highly recommend you to avoid at all cost… It’s the Galbis’ Lair, the turf of Cyclops. That area will sometime spawn a Tier 4 Ultimate Boss, the Cyclops Commander. From what I’ve heard, it has the strength that rivals that of a Tier 6 Boss and had annihilated several parties before. If you really need an Earth-type Boss, I could still search another one for you… Uh… There’s a Level 52 Stone Golem at the Monster Mountains… its level is only two higher than the Cyclops. How about this one…”

“It’s alright, Helga. I’ll take the Cyclops. I’ve already killed that Stone Golem earlier.” Qin Ruo’s reply left the clan’s three girls speechless.
