Chapter 494: Breeze Wind

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Jie sat on the horse and opened the map the Dwarf had given him and observed for a while. “Spider Den? It seems to be a Level 60 map. Hm, this seems interesting.”

Many red dots were marked on the map, those were the areas the Dwarf concluded where PK commonly occurred. Normally, people would choose to go round them, but Lin Jie did not bother at all and directly chose the shortest route, heading towards the Spider Den in a straight line.

Speaking of Sunshine City, it was quite famous recently as there were rumors of many players moving to other main cities due to PKing being common, the wild was as chaotic as it could be. Recently, PKing became more and more intense.

If one was wandering around in the wild, then they would most likely encounter such a scene: A small team comprising of three to five solo players or lone wolves would frequently encounter teams of unknown identity and many people. Often, conflicts would arise between the two parties due to some small matter and then be wiped out. The larger team sometimes didn’t even need an excuse, they would just unreasonably find trouble and forcibly cause a conflict, resulting in a fight.

Meanwhile, as calculated by people with intentions, as long as it was Never Setting Sun’s players with their guild name revealed, they had never encountered such a thing. As for the reasons, whether it was because these teams with “unknown identity” were afraid of Never Setting Sun’s power or some other factors in play, that was unknown.

On the way to the Spider Den, Lin Jie had already seen three to four waves of teams or solo players being killed. Lin Jie did not stick his nose into others’ business and thus did not help those people. After they were killed, whether or not they would join Never Setting Sun, head to other main cities, or call their friends for revenge, no matter what, it did not concern Lin Jie.

As for Lin Jie, although he was a loner, his gear was shining with the Dark Gold light. It was obvious that he was someone powerful, and normally such type of players would either be an expert professional gamer or a core elite of a major guild.

One should know that currently, the mainstream gear of players was still Silver items, so a player that could gather Gold equipment from head to toe was already counted as a high-end player, not to mention Dark Gold.

Those teams with unknown identities might have decided to not take the initiative and provoke Lin Jie due to such a consideration. In the end, Lin Jie reached outside the Spider Den smoothly.

Spider Den was a huge cave, the inside was cold and wet, and was like a maze with many routes. Most likely, players who entered would get lost and need to rely on the returning scroll to get out.

At that moment, a large number of players was gathered in front of the entrance, there was a total of almost 100 people. On their heads were the guild marks of Never Setting Sun as if they were flaunting to others. They seemed to be discussing something.

“Bi Yueshang is inside, but we don’t know which passageway she is in.”

“There are tens of passageways and countless branch-outs. If we are unlucky, we might even enter the Boss’ nest. We might be wiped out anytime.”

“Then let’s split up and search, we could also recruit some cannon fodder to enter. We can save a lot of time by splitting up and also share the risk.”

“This idea seems good, then let’s do it.”

After coming to a conclusion, everyone immediately started to split into teams. There were a total of 20 passageways in the Spider Den, each passageway would even randomly spawn a few branch-outs. The levels of the spiders spawned inside would also range from Normal to Overlord, especially the three Hidden Bosses: Spider Prophet, Spider Overlord, and Spider Lurker. Their strengths were extraordinary.

Normally, a Hidden Boss would not appear, it would be randomly spawned, and if it was not killed within 2 hours after it appeared each time, then it would automatically disappear. Therefore, it was called the Hidden Boss by the players.

Bi Yueshang was a famous person that was widely known in the Sunshine City area or even the few major cities nearby. Her name could be seen everywhere, chosen on the many popular Rankings in the form. She was a great beauty and a powerful expert. Therefore, Bi Yueshang became the target, which all the different major guilds would want to recruit. As for Never Setting Sun, as the best guild in Sunshine City, of course, they would not give up on such a chance to win her over as they were in the same city,

Breeze Wind was the team leader of the third team in Never Setting Sun. She was a Fallen Human Druid. The team she brought was the one which had the highest popularity within Never Setting Sun. The reason was simple, it was because Breeze Wind was a gorgeous beauty. She was strong too, and she specialized in recovery. There was only one healer in her whole team, and it was her. As a recovery-type Druid, she was able to heal the whole team by herself.

Recovery-type Druids were proficient in continuous healing and crowd healing. They could also plant Life Seeds beforehand and provide Nature Resistance to the whole team. It was the job that had the highest requirements for their awareness and execution skills. If needed, they could also use their transformation skill to bring up the rear.

Presently, Breeze Wind’s beautiful face had a frown. Currently, her team was clearing the City of Machinery Dungeon, so they could not be at two places at once. Therefore, the abilities of the team members, who followed her this time, were varied. Most of them were the second and third-rate members of the guild since their main aim was to ascertain if Breeze Wind was really inside this Spider Den. They were simply here to be cannon fodders.

Naturally, the all-powerful Breeze Wind changed her aim to the three Hidden Bosses in the Spider Den. From her point of view, she thought that the chances of finding Bi Yueshang were just too slim, so it was better for her to put her focus on the few Bosses.

Why was Never Setting Sun looking for Bi Yueshang? Firstly, it was because this Druid was powerful and worthy of being recruited. Secondly, it was, of course, because of Scorching Sun’s certain despicable, dirty thoughts.

Meanwhile, Breeze Wind was sent there… because she was close to Bi Yueshang and Scorching Sun had learned about their relationship through some unknown way. Thus, he tried to let Breeze Wind recruit Bi Yueshang. That was why she came to such a place. Breeze Wind, who was originally battling in the elite, the team suddenly received such a task, so even though she was unwilling, she had no choice but to bring these groups of players with her.

As for searching for Bi Yueshang, Breeze Wind could not be bothered to do it…

“With such a team, even farming the monsters inside the Spider Den would be difficult. I still have a mission that needs me to enter the depths of the nest…” Breeze Wind sighed helplessly as she rubbed her forehead.

Breeze Wind looked around casually and suddenly saw a figure. That person had hidden his name and basic information, but he was donned in Dark Gold equipment from head to toe, which attracted others’ attention very much.

“Hey, friend, are you interested in clearing the Spider Den together?” asked Breeze Wind straightforwardly. Instantly, everyone’s attention was on Lin Jie.

Lin Jie heard Breeze Wind and was slightly shocked. He then came down from his Iron-Willed Blood Horse and looked at the woman in front of him.

Truth be told, Breeze Wind was really pretty, she wore a long turquoise Druid robe, and due to her special features of being a fallen human, her skin seemed to be overly white. Her pair of purplish-black eyes were agile and lively. Meanwhile, her expression was much duller compared to her sweet looks, even when inviting Lin Jie, she was still cold.

“How’s the team?” asked Lin Jie directly while ignoring the glares from the other members of Never Setting Sun.

“Enough to kill the Spider Prophet, but not enough if dealing with the Spider Overlord,” said Breeze Wind clearly.

Spider Prophet was the weakest amongst the three Hidden Bosses, and the Spider Overlord was slightly stronger. As for the Lurker, everyone just did not even consider it as the Hidden Bosses were already randomly spawned and would disappear two hours later. Furthermore, the Spider Lurker even had Stealth Move, so before players even discovered it, it would already have disappeared without a trace.

Lin Jie nodded. ‘Looks like the main aim of this team are the Hidden Bosses and [Mutated Spiderweb], just nicely needed to be dropped from these three Bosses.’

Lin Jie said, “With me, it’ll be enough to kill the Spider Overlord.”

Breeze Wind was slightly surprised, although this Warrior’s gear was not bad, he was too arrogant. The Spider Overlord was a Hidden Boss, so naturally, it was strong. Even if the guild leader Scorching Sun joined the team, he would not have the courage to lead a group of mediocre members to kill the Spider Overlord.

“Tsk tsk, you really don’t need to pay tax for boasting,” said a Priest named “Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers” in disdain. “With the addition of just you alone would let us kill the Spider Overlord? Why don’t you say you can solo it?”

Breeze Wind coughed, she was displeased as these people were weak. She saw that the passerby’s gear was quite good, so she wanted to recruit him, but if he left because of being mocked, then it would not be worth it.

Who would have expected Lin Jie to nod his head earnestly and reply, “I can’t do that now, but I’ll be able to do it if I raise a few more levels.”

“You!” Don’t Sweep Falling Flowers did not even know how to continue. He could only use all his might to stare at Lin Jie in disdain, looking down fiercely on Lin Jie, who, in his mind, had an exaggerated opinion of his abilities.

“Alright, enter the team. This friend, your equipment is quite good, so if your skills are also up to standard, then I can help you apply for a position in the Never Setting Sun’s elite team,” said Breeze Wind calmly as she pulled Lin Jie into the team. She frowned slightly after seeing Lin Jie had set his name to “Anonymous” but did not pay much attention to it. She waved her hand and said, “Everyone, enter the map. If you find traces of Bi Yueshuang, then directly send a message to the guild leader. If you find the Hidden Boss, send a message to me.”

“Wait…” Lin Jie said, “Your aim is mainly the Hidden Bosses, right?”

Breeze Wind raised her brows and agreed.

“This team can’t make it.” Lin Jie shook his head. The team he was in currently consisted of a Shield Specialist, a Hunter, two Mages, a Healer Druid, a Bandit, and two Weapon Specialists. They belonged to the safest allocation of jobs in a team. With Warriors and Druid, at least, they could cover for their teammates to escape when the Shield Specialist died.

However, to kill the Hidden Boss, it needed to be revised.

“Do you even understand?” Don’t Sweep Falling Flowers glared at Lin Jie. “This is the most standard allocation of roles to exploring new places.”

“So that’s why it won’t make it,” said Lin Jie. “If you want to kill the Hidden Bosses, it’s best to change the team.”

Breeze Wind looked at Lin Jie, intrigued. Her woman instinct was telling her that that man was not simple. She stretched out her hand and did the “please” gesture, signaling Lin Jie to continue.

“That person named Mo Chengfeng, enter the team. A Heart-Wrenching Song, enter the team, and you…” Lin Jie pointed to 8 people continuously, then clapped his hands and said, “Alright, just these people.”

Don’t Sweep Falling Flowers cursed, “Are you an idiot? If this team can kill the Hidden Bosses, I’ll broadcast live of cutting myself!”

Breeze Wind also frowned, the people Lin Jie had called out were all jobs that dealt damage! Fire Mages, Bandits with high damage, Assassin Hunters… Everyone was DPS expect for Breeze Wind, who was a Healer Druid. However, anyone who had been to a dungeon would know that without an MT, one would not be able to pull aggro, so being wiped out was inevitable.

“You, just join the team and kill monsters, I will distribute the spoils to you. As for whether or not you want to join Never Setting Sun, I won’t force you. So for now, don’t do such stuff to grab others’ attention,” said Breeze Wind to Lin Jie as she added back the original team.

COMMENT

Don’t Sweep Falling Flowers grinned, he was a Priest, so naturally, he was excluded from “Lin Jie’s team”. He snorted in disdain and said from his high horse, “Noob, don’t anyhow suggest without any basic knowledge. What’s with the all-DPS team? it’s time for you to eat some medicine for your head!”

Seeing how Breeze Wind added the original members back one by one, Lin Jie helplessly shook his head. He wasted no time to argue with Don’t Sweep Falling Flowers and directly joined the team.

“Enter, don’t talk nonsense.” Breeze Wind really hated disputes. She directly entered the map.
