Summoning Players into My Game-Chapter 520 - 303: Serious Players, Who Doesn’t Have Spiritual Perception? (Super - )
As Yiye Fuyun appeared in Byye Village, the whole village became bustling with excitement.
Originally, Byye Village only had a few hundred villagers, but now it was teeming with over a hundred thousand players. The entire village was overflowing with people, filled with the sounds of shouting and chatting. Players were everywhere, busy looking for quests, and having a great time.
"Damn! This game is incredible, so many people are playing, yet I don’t feel any lag. The realism is way better than other masterpieces; I could play this game for a lifetime."
"These NPCs are so intelligent; they’re able to chat with people casually."
"Form a team to go outside and kill level 3 pigs. We need a few skilled players; you can exchange the pork for basic skills with the village chief. Anyone wanting to level up outside shouldn’t miss this."
...
Yiye Fuyun looked at the players in Byye Village and heard those familiar words, feeling a deep sense of nostalgia and sentimentality all at once.
"Indeed, after playing such hardcore games like Descent of High Martial for so long, it’s hard to adapt to other games."
After a slight tour around Byye Village, Yiye Fuyun quickly found Ye Qinglu, who had also participated in the beta test.
At this moment, Ye Qinglu was wearing a pristine martial arts robe, carrying a sapphire longsword on her back, appearing like an ancient heroine. Her level showed as nine, just one level short of reaching level ten and advancing to the Qi Refining Realm.
Beside Ye Qinglu stood Thousand Blade Evil Spirit, someone Yiye Fuyun had briefly encountered in an underground black boxing ring. Nearly two meters tall, he carried eight longswords on his back, also at level nine.
The two stood together, drawing the envy of the nearby novice players, who wished to cling to them for success.
"Let’s go, the leader is probably waiting impatiently." Thousand Blade Evil Spirit said to Yiye Fuyun as they walked, "Now that the game is in open beta, the areas around the village are no longer suitable for leveling and questing. However, during the beta, we discovered a quest for quickly joining the Shenxiao Sect. It involves taking down a level 12 demon beast outside Byye Village in the Thousand Needles Forest. If it drops a demon core, we might have the opportunity to become a disciple of an Elder of the Shenxiao Sect."
"During the beta, the time was too short, and it was impossible for just a few of us to handle that demon beast. Now that we’re all together, we should be able to take it down."
With Thousand Blade Evil Spirit’s words in mind, it only took an hour for the three of them to reach the depths of the Thousand Needles Forest, where a commotion arose, with the sounds of metal clashing echoing throughout.
"Something’s off, why is there a fight between players over there? Let’s go quickly!"
Hearing this, Thousand Blade Evil Spirit immediately rushed to the location of the demon beast, with the level one Yiye Fuyun and level nine Ye Qinglu quickly following behind.
After passing through a grove of withered trees, the three soon saw a massive brawl occurring beside a giant snake with horns. One side was the group of over twenty Sky Traveler members, while the other side had over a hundred people, each with the same guild emblem on their clothing.
That emblem was familiar to both Thousand Blade Evil Spirit and Yiye Fuyun.
War God Alliance!
This was a major guild in the virtual gaming world, on par with the likes of Pilgrimage’s Celestial Might and Mythical Paradise, a guild that had existed for over a hundred years.
"Kill! This snake demon is ours!"
The leader of the War God Alliance, a level nine man, commanded over a hundred people to surround and attack the Sky Traveler members while fighting.
At this time, though the Sky Traveler members were high-level, they were outnumbered. Additionally, the War God Alliance had many experts, with more than a dozen members as well-known as Luo Wushang, putting the Sky Traveler at a disadvantage.
"Let’s go help!"
Seeing this, Thousand Blade Evil Spirit unsheathed his sword and dashed forward.
In the early stages of Eternal Immortal Path, there wasn’t much of a difference in attributes between players. A level nine player only had nine more free attribute points than a level one player. A level one player’s basic attributes were around ten, with some even reaching twelve. Leveling up didn’t improve these attributes, so even if a level nine player put all their free points into one attribute, it would only be double a level one’s attribute. Splitting the points would make the difference even smaller.
Even though Sky Traveler was slightly more skilled as a whole, they were at a loss when facing the sheer numbers.
"Another group?" The leader of the War God Alliance glanced at Thousand Blade Evil Spirit’s trio charging forward with disdain, "Ghost Marquis, go take care of those three."
After the leader spoke, a disheveled-haired man at level eight nodded and led over ten people to surround Thousand Blade Evil Spirit.
"Brother Thousand Blade, be careful of these people. They’re core members of the War God Alliance, so don’t let them surround you." A girl in Sky Traveler about twenty years old wielding dual sabers at level seven quickly warned.
With the girl’s warning, Thousand Blade Evil Spirit became serious.
Her name was Blade Like Snow, a newcomer to the group, but extremely talented, ranking in the top ten for dueling. That her words carried weight indicated that the War God Alliance members were not to be underestimated.
"Is being careful enough in this situation?"
The man named Ghost Marquis stepped in front of Thousand Blade Evil Spirit, his long spear raining down blows incessantly.
"So we’re matching speed?"
Thousand Blade Evil Spirit laughed, his longswords swirling like a storm, equally fast and astonishing.
The exchange of blows lasted dozens of rounds when the spear-wielding Ghost Marquis soon fell into a disadvantage, but a smile grew on his face.
"Focusing so much on me, is that wise?" Ghost Marquis glanced at Yiye Fuyun and Ye Qinglu behind Thousand Blade Evil Spirit, teasing.
During their face-off, the ten-plus people Ghost Marquis brought slipped past them, lunging directly at Yiye Fuyun and Ye Qinglu. The overwhelming numbers left Vice Leader Ye Qinglu struggling to defend alone, let alone a level one newcomer to the group.
"Damn it!"
Thousand Blade Evil Spirit glanced back, noticing five War God Alliance experts targeting Yiye Fuyun, prompting him to turn and rush over.
While he knew Yiye Fuyun had some skill and could handle his former bodyguards, these were central members of the War God Alliance, far stronger in-game. Even Thousand Blade Evil Spirit would struggle against five attackers, let alone level one Yiye Fuyun.
As the five War God Alliance experts encircled Yiye Fuyun, preparing to strike from all directions, they left Thousand Blade Evil Spirit no chance to assist.
However, instead of panicking, Yiye Fuyun made a slight step, evading the blade and sword of two experts as if she had eyes on her back. This caused the two to collide with the oncoming experts.
"Die!"
Flanking was one War God Alliance expert wielding a Nine-Ring Great Saber, swinging down at Yiye Fuyun’s exposed back.
As the great saber swung down, the sound of the wind roared.
The Nine-Ring Great Saber that should have cleaved Yiye Fuyun in half miraculously missed, brushing past and striking a stone on the ground, splitting it in two, embedding deep into the earth.
"How... is this possible?!"
"How did you dodge that?!"
The expert with the Nine-Ring Great Saber stared bewildered at his missed strike. He had calculated the timing and positioning perfectly, aiming at Yiye Fuyun’s blind spot. Yet, Yiye Fuyun moved forward half a step at the last moment, letting the saber brush her clothes as it descended, an unbelievable feat.
"Brother, don’t you ever use Spiritual Perception in battle?" Yiye Fuyun turned his head, exasperated, "You swung so blatantly. Did you really take me for a gaming newbie?"
