Chapter 713: The Freak

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yi kited the Demon Wolf Priest all the way to where Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was lying.

The items on the ground were still there, but his body was gone. Like The Mountain and Milky Way Star, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth chose to return to the continent instead of reviving on the spot.

The Demon Wolf Priest continued to attack with offensive spells, but to Li Yi, who had a longer attack range, it meant nothing. He just needed to keep his distance and watch out for any Frostbolts. Other than that, there were no big issues.

After ten minutes, the Demon Wolf Priest bellowed and slammed into the ground.

Li Yi went forward and picked up the equipment one by one.

…

In the Celestial City of the Fluttering Snow Continent, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Milky Way Star silently walked toward the teleportation door. Both of them seemed rather dispirited.

“Brother, why didn’t The Mountain respawn with us?”

“He’s not from around here, so he wouldn’t respawn in this city.”

“Really?”

Milky Way Star grinned and pointed toward the teleportation door. “Let us go, The Mountain asked us to wait for him at the Black Rock Mountain.”

“Sure…”

They walked through the teleportation door and went to Frostfall City, leaving the Celestial Capital.

…

At the Foreignland Entrance, members of the Iron Alliance were occupying the right side of the Seventh Demon God Altar. Tens of thousands of them were seen scattered around. They were slaughtering the numerous monsters in the area.

On the left side, Brother Windcloud Nine led his 100,000 guild elites to control one area. They were fighting and killing in high spirits.

In addition to them, the Fluttering Snow Alliance had sent its elites to occupy the area in front of the Seventh Demon God Altar. The forces of the three kingdoms gathered together to form a triangle and surrounded the Seventh Demon God in a pincer formation.

Judging from geography, the left and right sides of the Altar undoubtedly had the advantage, as random players would use the pathway leading straight to the Seventh Demon God Altar from the Foreignland Entrance.

The Fluttering Snow Alliance was there. battling both monsters and random players, their burden was no doubt greater than the Iron Alliance’s and Windcloud Clan’s.

Within the Iron Alliance, Jiaojiao, Confused Fox, Flower Underpants and others acted as the army leaders. The Windcloud Clan, on the other hand, had Windcloud Overlord and Brother Windcloud Nine as their leading figures. Among the three kingdoms, Fluttering Snow Alliance had the oddest composition of them all.

Their leader, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and many of her elites were not present on the frontlines, nowhere to be found. There were few powerful members on the field, which made them far less powerful than the other two forces.

A weak country would drag its citizens down. This was evident in Foreignland. According to the statistics, the players from the Fluttering Snow Continent were killed more frequently than those from the other two continents. They had the highest number of player deaths.

The Invincible Continent and Ninth Continent had each other as allies, while The Fluttering Snow Continent had none. Although they had close relations with many major guilds from the other two continents, who was willing to lend them a hand in such a situation?

…

Invincible Continent, Black Rock Mountain, the Deathwing Dungeon.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut clenched her fists, manifesting a faint gold-colored aura around her. She had been gazing at the slumbering Deathwing lying motionless for more than half an hour.

The elites of the Fluttering Snow Alliance had gathered here, with more than 500 people standing behind their leader.

After Li Yi had cleared out the Sixth Demonic Domain, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut brought her people to the Deathwing Dungeon. She had attempted it 21 times but had still not succeeded.

Ancient, Secret, and Regular Dungeons were different. As long as a dungeon bore the prefix Ancient-level, the bosses within would be extremely powerful, and the Deathwing in front of them was the first Ancient-level boss in the King of Pantheon. It was also the only Ancient-level boss currently available.

Deathwing was a default level 100 dungeon. The equipment dropped by an Ancient-level Deathwing would be the best level 100 equipment obtainable.

This dungeon had existed since the release of King of Pantheon, but even after three years, no one could best it, showing how unbelievable it was.

“Where is that freak?”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut asked Bai Xiaoya, who was behind her.

Bai Xiaoya blinked. “Why don’t you send a message and ask instead?”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut showed an unnatural expression. She stopped asking and continued looking forward.

Two familiar figures waltzed in the dungeon, they turned out to be Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Milky Way Star.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and Bai Xiaoya were looking in the opposite direction. It was not until the duo got closer that they asked in unison, “Where is that freak?”

Milky Way Star seemed lost as he looked around. “And here I thought The Mountain was already here.”

Bai Xiaoya contacted him and later shrugged. “On the way, he said.”

Milky Way Star looked doubtful. “Those who were supposed to be late have already arrived, what is he doing?”

Bai Xiaoya sighed. “We cannot use a reasonable man’s standard to measure the unreasonable. Let’s just wait.”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut shook her head, her eyes shut.

Since Milky Way Star’s appearance, the elites started whispering amongst themselves. Some recognized him as the former king but did not understand what sort of relationship he had with their leader.

“I know him. He is the leader of the Assembled Gods, a good friend of Amber Sword Heart.”

“Wasn’t he the king?”

“Why did he abdicate?”

“I do not know. It is rare to see someone so humble and unpretentious.”

“That guy is no joke. I saw him battling alone against the Lava Lord, a level 100 World Boss, and man that was so cool.”

Milky Way Star quietly listened as he smiled and sat down to rest.

“I am curious too. Why did you abdicate? Were you afraid that you might lose the Celestial Capital?” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth voiced his doubts.

Milky Way Star shook his head. After some time, he confessed, “After I became king, The Mountain challenged me to a duel, and I lost.”

This struck Tyrant Sword King the Fifth with revelation. “I understand now.”

“I came to know him as a result, and we began to work together, honing and grinding our Territory Power. I am indebted to him, for I have no interest in becoming king. Were it not for Amber Sword Heart, I wouldn’t have become one. With great power comes great responsibility. It is much better now, at least I am free to do whatever I want.”

“Wise choice.”

“Brother…”

“Uh-huh?”

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth coughed as he expressed his thoughts, “Are there any shortcuts to training Territory Power?”

Before the emergence of Territory Power, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had always been a badass. However, with more and more Territory Masters in play, his position was becoming more uncertain.

He was desperate. Despite his affluence, he could not exchange money for Territory Power.

Milky Way Star smiled. “It’s not difficult. Is there a faster way? I do not know. The Mountain took me to one of Pantheon’s Seven Secret Places when we were training together. The Fire Abyss, they say. We went in and saw a chest without locks, inside there were two Pantheon Ruins Teleportation Scrolls.”

“No way,” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth expressed his slight envy. He had one of those scrolls before, but he merely acquired a purple-colored weapon before he was slain by a random monster in the Secret Place.

“Do your quests, hunt World Bosses, open chests, dig up treasures, all these have a certain chance of giving you those scrolls. If you want the express route, I suggest you look for treasure maps.”

The Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s eyes turned bright.

An hour passed.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut took a deep breath and glared at Bai Xiaoya.

The latter turned her gaze away. “Don’t look at me like this. The unreasonable man’s standard, remember?”

“It’s too much. Is he seriously taking two and a half hours to walk across one damn street?”

Not only was Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut growing restless, but the other elites were visibly more anxious than she was. Trouble was brewing. They did not know who she was waiting for, nor they did know who that freak was. Sitting in a dungeon doing absolutely nothing was completely contrary to the dungeon’s purpose. Who would tolerate that?

“Do we still fight? If we’re taking a break, I have to pick up my children from school.”

“I have to cook for my wife.”

“I have plans in the coming hour, I have to go too.”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was astonished by the crowded Party Channel.

She employed her signature move. “Xiaoya, take care of it.”

Every time there was a need for speech, she would send Bai Xiaoya to raise morale.

Bai Xiaoya spoke, “Calm down, we are waiting for a very important person. Believe me, we will be starting in ten minutes.”

“Ten minutes? No problem!”

“My children can wait.”

“I’ll tell my wife to come home by herself.”

The hubbub was over for now.

Ten minutes passed by and the protests started happening again. This time was no better than the last.

“Fifteen damn minutes have passed. Remind me, who are we waiting for again?”

“My kids need me.”

“My wife won’t come home tonight if I don’t goddamn pick her.”

Bai Xiaoya spoke again, “The person we are so anxiously waiting for has arrived at the Black Rock Mountain. Think about it, we’ve already been here for three hours! If you can’t wait for another ten minutes than those three hours will be in vain.”

The people felt that it was reasonable, and they went quiet once more.

Her words were indeed reassuring, keeping the members each time they intended to leave, and another hour passed.

Whoosh!

A figure appeared at the dungeon entrance; the legendary Summoner sauntered in with his Orange Quality Staff.

“Sorry to keep you waiting. I lost my purpose in life for a moment back there, so I came a little late, my sincere apologies…”
