God-level Hero-Chapter 449 - 421: Falling Down and Standing Up Again!
Chapter 449: Chapter 421: Falling Down and Standing Up Again!
Elorin Harbor, bustling with a cacophony of voices. As the naval battle ended, the mountainous crowd on the dock started to disperse.
Having just been sunk by Da Fei, the owner of the Sea Wolf, "Seven Seas Dominator," resurrected at Elorin Square Resurrection Point with a wooden expression.
A fellow player who resurrected alongside him called out, "Little Qi, why the daze? Go to Glory City to claim compensation from the Royal Family."
"Exactly, your whole ship sank; the compensation must be a lot."
The Seven Seas Dominator dejectedly shook his head, "I just want some quiet..."
"Then we’ll be off, you can still call us for leveling up in the future..."
Seven Seas Dominator sighed deeply. Could these temporarily teamed-up players understand the dedication he had put into the Sea Wolf? Could the loss of the Wave be measured in gold coins or cash?
As an ordinary gamer, he harbored extraordinary ambitions, which is why he had rushed to register the domineering ID name "Seven Seas Dominator" on the first day of the game. Of course, if that name had been taken, it wouldn’t matter; he could have gone for Eight Seas Overlord.
Then he chose Sailing Skill as his Hero Special Ability: For every 2 levels the hero gains, the effectiveness of Sailing Skill improves by 1%. He was one of the earliest players in the China Region to own a medium-sized ship, and he believed he would be the fastest ship sailor, second to none! Trading, battling pirates, deep-sea exploration, building bigger and legendary ships, forming his own fleet, until he finally dominated the Seven Seas—this was the main theme he set for his game.
Through his relentless efforts, he gradually became a somewhat famous player in the Elf Kingdom’s naval port of Tarolan City. He also obtained a unique troop from Tarolan, the Tarolan Sailors. These sailors not only had strong naval combat capabilities but also possessed excellent sailing skills. Since the day he got the medium ship, he led these sailors on Grade B missions to eradicate pirates, with invincible success. And in these frequent and intense battles, a few sailors were even successfully promoted to elites!
The Royal Family’s action to encircle Da Fei naturally noticed him and requested to rent his ship, which he gladly joined. To the Seven Seas Dominator, the Royal Family’s hiring gold and compensation insurance were not the reasons that stirred his heart; what excited him was the opportunity to meet many players in the China Region who owned medium-sized ships early on, undoubtedly the creme de la creme, and to see what level he stood at among them. Of course, he also wanted to witness the legendary Da Fei’s capabilities.
However, he certainly wouldn’t just witness things that simply; he secretly harbored an impulse to make a grand name for himself. He believed that given the chance, his Tarolan Sailors could land a decisive Lethal Strike on the opponent in an instant, just like in the missions against pirates.
And now, he finally witnessed it, and quite luckily or unluckily, he became the first dish served up by Da Fei! When he witnessed the terrifying damage from Da Fei Secret Archer Troop’s extreme range, instantly killing the elite sailors, he collapsed!
All gone! Those sailors he treasured like jewels hadn’t even had the chance to prove themselves before they vanished in an instant! How could gold coin compensation soothe the sinking feeling in his heart? A sense of shattered dreams welled up inside him.
While lost in dismay, he suddenly noticed that another female player next to him had been dazed without moving for quite a while. Upon a glance, Magic Jelly! Eh, wasn’t this the same captain who was sunk with him just now? It was a girl?
Both reduced to the same plight! With a deep breath, Seven Seas Dominator greeted, "Hello, I’m the captain of the just-sunk Sea Wolf, and now my ship is gone."
Magic Jelly responded woodenly with an "Oh."
Well, that was a heavy hit! Seeing her expression, Seven Seas Dominator suddenly felt inexplicably cheered up. It seemed that having a chat with someone in the same unlucky boat could indeed offer a respite!
Seven Seas Dominator sighed, "My Sea Wolf was outfitted with hard-earned copper plating armor, Defense +30, and yet he didn’t fire a single shot, just relentlessly targeted my stern and sank me instantly!"
"Pfft!" Magic Jelly couldn’t help but burst into laughter, but then immediately choked up, "My Magic Jelly Ship was a magic ship with a special skill... It’s gone... just like that... Waaaah..."
Seven Seas Dominator sighed, "My team of elite special forces sailors just got wiped out upon contact, vanished in an instant. Who can outdo my misery?"
Magic Jelly sobbed, "All my sailors were Magic Apprentices; can you top my misery?"
Seven Seas Dominator replied bitterly, "My elite team was the culmination of my entire month since the server opened!"
Magic Jelly wailed, "My Magic Sailors were raised by selling all my possessions!"
—"Enough already! Save it!" Suddenly, someone else interjected from behind them, "I’m the captain of the Snow Dragon, which sank after you guys. I’m a professional merchant; to play this game and buy this ship, I borrowed all the money from friends. Who dares say they’re worse off than me?"
Seven Seas Dominator and Magic Jelly looked back in surprise, indeed it was a player named "Cold Blooded Ice River."
Just then, another player spoke up: "A merchant dares to enter this muddle? Who’s to blame for seeking his own death?"
Cold Blooded Ice River retorted irritably, "Wasn’t it just to follow the crowd, thinking that misfortune wouldn’t come my way—eh? You’re that idiot who sank after me!"
That player called Lonely Frog snapped, "I am an idiot! I seriously hope others curse me now! Please, laugh at me, call me an idiot! Ha ha! Wahahaha!"
Magic Jelly scolded with displeasure, "Idiot!"
Lonely Frog laughed heartily, "That’s the spirit! Beautiful, keep it coming! Keep cursing! Wahahaha!"
"Idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot!!!"
Lonely Frog danced wildly as if mad, "Wahahaha!!! I’m the idiot, I’m the number one idiot who seeks death even without trying!" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Cold Blooded Ice River shook his head, "Another one’s gone mad! Guess it’ll be my turn soon."
Magic Jelly exhaled a long breath, "That was satisfying to scold!"
All are destitute wanderers of the world! For some reason, at this moment, Seven Seas Overlord felt an indescribable sense of relief and exhilaration! Indeed, only those who suffer can share each other’s pain. Once extinguished, ambition was reignited in the heart of Seven Seas Overlord!
Seven Seas Overlord laughed and said, "Meeting under such circumstances, we could be considered friends in adversity, right? Let’s all add each other as friends, start over together, form a guild, run businesses, go on adventures, do quests, how about it?"
Everyone was taken aback, then fell silent.
After a while, Cold Blooded Ice River shook his head: "Adding as friends is fine, but forming a guild, I’m not interested."
Magic Jelly also shook his head: "I’m not interested either. I’m off to claim my compensation, goodbye!"
Is it so hard to start over? Seven Seas Overlord forced a smile and said, "That’s right, like me, everyone prefers being independent freelancers, otherwise with your skills, you would have joined a large guild long ago."
Lonely Frog laughed heartily: "You’re in this mess and still thinking of forming a guild? You’re dreaming too big!"
Seven Seas Overlord sighed deeply: "I was dreaming too big. Let’s meet again if we’re destined to!"
Just then, a few players shouted, "Hey, don’t go, we have something to discuss with you!"
The four of them looked up in surprise and indeed saw several players wearing the emblem of the Blood Sea Guild.
A player named Little Ma approached with a smile: "Hello everyone, we’re from the Blood Sea Guild. We would like to invite you to join our guild, what do you say?"
Lonely Frog laughed heartily: "We’ve lost our ship and look like crap, what makes you think we qualify to join your guild?"
Little Ma smiled: "You do qualify! It’s precisely your courage to open fire on Da Fei that we admire!"
Cold Blooded Ice River coldly said: "Why should we join your guild then?"
Little Ma smiled: "We are mortal enemies with the Da Fei Guild. Join us, and we’ll help you get your revenge!"
Magic Jelly indifferently said: "Since you’re mortal enemies with Da Fei, why didn’t we see you join the fight earlier?"
Little Ma proudly smiled: "The Blood Sea Guild handles its own affairs and doesn’t need to join forces with others yet!"
Seven Seas Overlord said, "Sorry, I’m planning to form my own guild, so I can’t join yours."
Little Ma’s eyebrows twitched, and he shook his head with a strange laugh: "You want to form your own guild, huh? Heh, to each their own—what about the three of you? Our Blood Sea Guild is very sincere, and we offer top-tier treatment in the China Region."
Cold Blooded Ice River pointed to Seven Seas Overlord: "I’ve been invited by him!"
Lonely Frog laughed heartily as well: "I’ve been invited by him too!"
Magic Jelly nodded: "Yes, yes!"
Little Ma was dumbstruck on the spot!
Seven Seas Overlord was also shocked on the spot! When did I invite you guys, and you didn’t even agree, how come you’re using me as an excuse to refuse?
Little Ma regained his composure, glanced meaningfully at Seven Seas Overlord, chuckled and said: "Alright! If you change your mind, feel free to come to us." After speaking, he led his group away.
"Damn it!" Seven Seas Overlord was crushed: "You all dug a hole for me! They are a large guild, you could have joined if you wanted, why use me as a shield? I’m not involved, I will build a guild, and you all must join!"
Lonely Frog laughed: "You’re thinking too much, let’s talk when you’ve set up the guild! Goodbye!"
Seven Seas Overlord hurriedly said: "Hey, add friends, otherwise how can I contact you later!"
Lonely Frog sighed: "Seeing how pitiful you are, I’ll add you! But the first message you send must be that the guild is set up, otherwise I’ll delete you immediately!"
Magic Jelly also nodded: "Right, right!"
What kind of people are these! Seven Seas Overlord somewhat regretted dealing with them, but then again, is it precisely because everyone is odd that there’s a chance for success?
That’s right! We are actually among the best players, and one failure doesn’t mean anything! We can still rise again! In that moment, Seven Seas Overlord was brimming with confidence about the future: "Fine! Give me half a month, I’ll invite you all then. The name of the guild will be ’Seven Seas House’!"
"That’s so lame! Not joining! It should be called Seven Seas Frog!"
"Seven Seas Jello!"
"Seven Seas Ice River!"
