Chapter 213 -211: Methods of Recruitment (2nd Update)
Shen Meng was attempting to recruit Aixin, who was an elite monster… other guilds and random players were trying to do the same thing.
Players were actually quite sneaky; they didn’t need Jiang Qiao to issue any notices to remind them that they came to the Magic Thief ruins instance… not to level up, nor to explode better gear, but to snatch people.
The ‘snatching’ here wasn’t really about forceful abduction.
Because players knew there were two options to turn a Magic Thief into an NPC in the talent market, the first was to hand the Magic Thief over to Alu, played by Queen Mei, as a prisoner.
With this option, there was a certain chance that the Magic Thieves could be converted into recruitable entities in the talent market.
But by doing so, the player who captured the Magic Thief and completed the quest would only get rewards like the small fish or meat treats given by Miss Cat, and the Magic Thief would not belong to the player.
So, most players chose the second option, which was to bring the Magic Thieves to Father Donna, who, after assessing their qualifications, would give priority to the player who brought them back to hire them.
The Dragon Speaker sisters were a case in point.
But the prerequisite for the second option was that the Magic Thieves had to be willing!
So, the clever players, while battling with the Magic Thieves… were like popup ads in some software, constantly bombarding the Magic Thieves with recruitment ads.
Now, Jiang Qiao glanced at his current channel, which was even busier than the world channel… The channel was flooded with advertisements from various guilds, and Jiang Qiao’s ears were also filled with shouts from every direction… it was like walking into an overcrowded food market.
“Nan Feng Wind Roar is recruiting front-liners! Bruh! We have over three times more girls here than any other guild, are you interested in joining, huh?”
“Afraid they’re all ladyboys, eh.”
“Holy Spirit! What do you guys mean by ‘ladyboys’ all the time?”
“Ladyboy? Big Bruh, if you’re interested I’ll explain it to you, just said I’ll explain it, don’t hit me!”
Jiang Qiao was commanding his Fire Spirits and Wind Spirits to meet three elite Magic Thieves in combat, while listening to the hawking from other players.
At this moment… Jiang Qiao really wanted to mute the game and keep playing because he was truly annoyed to no end.
Jiang Qiao was not the only one being annoyed to no end; almost all the Magic Thieves on the battlefield had entered a state… of frenzy.
The reason players shouted so enthusiastically was that they all popped up a semi-transparent window while battling with the Magic Thieves.
Among the three options in the window, there was always an attempt to recruit, but this option invariably had a very small chance, never exceeding three percent.
In fact, this small probability was what Jiang Qiao wanted to try, whether there were really any willing to leave Denghis Xisi’s control among the group of Magic Thieves loyal to him.
But looking at the current situation, the possibility was zero…
“Damn demons! I won’t let you destroy our city!”
A voice rang out beside Jiang Qiao’s ear, and a tall Magic Thief suddenly rushed towards Jiang Qiao. The power he copied was the Demon Exorcist’s Four Gods’ Power, but he seemed to use it like a power-focused Demon Exorcist.
So, when Jiang Qiao looked up, he saw a great axe whistling towards his head.
Why me again?
This question popped up in Jiang Qiao’s mind; he was the one with low output in the team, not drawing attention, just a mere slacker, yet why were these monsters targeting him to kill?
The Earth Spirit appeared in front of Jiang Qiao, but the axe directly smashed Jiang Qiao’s Earth Spirit into pieces, yet the axe did not hit Jiang Qiao, because Mo Shigui arrived!
Mo Shigui had already started moving as soon as the Magic Thief swung his axe, and by the time he broke through the front line to the rear camp of Mages, Mo Shigui had also arrived.
The giant axe heavily struck against Mo Shigui’s shield, and the earth veins beneath Mo Shigui’s feet couldn’t withstand the immense force and shattered…
“His health is low! Keep up the DPS!” Mo Shigui shouted into the guild channel.
Some of the more charismatic players in the strategy group also tried to recruit the Magic Thieves through sweet talk, but Mo Shigui felt the probability was so small, it was near impossible.
Explosions from flames and the Laser Cannon burst behind the Magic Thief. He was just an elite mob, with less than twenty thousand health remaining.
He staggered forward a step, and his axe clattered to the ground.
But the Magic Thief’s left arm… sprouted crystallized spikes.
“Second phase? Is that a skill from the Magic Thief job?” Black Pot Cooking Meat was seeing a transformation in the Magic Thief’s appearance for the first time.
“That’s not from any job…” Mo Shigui said as he watched the Magic Thief gradually enter a berserk state and yelled in the guild channel, “Yu Bai! Unleash awakening!”
Yu Bai was a Sanda player from Jumping Nucleus, whose presence was relatively unnoticeable… but now, he directly kicked the elite Magic Thief preparing to enter the second phase.
Martial God Strong Kick! The strongest single-target attack skill in the Holy Spirit.
A damage of thirty-four thousand leaped from the Magic Thief’s head, and the moment he was hit by the kick, he only stumbled a few steps forward as if nothing had happened and then stopped.
But his health was only left at one hundred and three points… which meant he no longer had the ability to continue fighting.
The huge body of the Magic Thief fell to the ground… Mo Shigui walked over to him and glanced at his name.
‘Elite Thief Mark.’
Mo Shigui pointed his sword blade at the Magic Thief… He was lying on the ground without the strength to even rise, yet he still glared fiercely at Mo Shigui.
“Guild Leader, shouldn’t we let the Fluffy Rabbit persuade him?” Black Pot Cooking Meat scratched his head on the side. This burly Magic Thief was their main recruitment target, but no matter how Black Pot Cooking Meat blabbered at him, he would not respond to Black Pot Cooking Meat.
“It’s pointless.”
Mo Shigui sheathed his weapon and turned to walk towards the distant wall, but just as he took a step, the Magic Thief grabbed his ankle.
“I won’t let you destroy the wall!”
He seemed truly intent on protecting his kin behind the walls.
But the moment he grabbed Mo Shigui’s ankle, there suddenly came a thunderous explosion from afar, accompanied by the sound of something shattering to debris.
Under the despairing gaze of the Magic Thief… the smoke cleared, revealing a huge breach in the distant wall.
“The wall just blew up? I thought we had to destroy it like in the Battle of the Gods.”
“Did we trigger a storyline?”
The members of Jumping Nucleus were also quite surprised by the sudden collapse of the wall.
But unexpected as it was… members of other guilds realized these Magic Thieves serving as fighters were not so easily persuaded! But the Magic Thief civilians inside were different!
Mo Shigui glanced at the elite mob on the ground holding his ankle. A dialogue box popped up before his eyes, and inside the dialogue box was an option… an option Mo Shigui rather liked…
“When you can stand again, then try to stop me.”
Mo Shigui kicked the Magic Thief away according to the option, signaling his guild members to directly attack the Magic Thief town behind the wall.
