MMORPG: Blessed God Of War - Chapter 41

Chapter 41: As Easy As Pie

If outsiders—who were unaware of the situation—were to see World’s Best’s smiling face, they would have thought that he and Liu Ming were on good terms with each other. However, everyone knew that World’s Best’s behavior was purely for the sake of showing the so-called ‘demeanor’ of a major guild.

Many of the various guilds’ players watching the battle sneered at the sight of it. They thought, What kind of demeanor of a grand guild do you guys have?

On the other hand, Liu Ming said indifferently, “Your World Guild will be leaving Lotter City after the battle today. There’s no need to create such a superfluous scene.”

After hearing Liu Ming’s words, World’s Best’s face grew sullen. He humphed coldly and said, “Hmph! All you do is talk big.”

Since there was nothing to talk about, the two of them no longer planned on continuing the conversation.

…

Soon, the battle between the two sides officially began.

Under World’s Best’s orders, the World Guild members quickly began attacking Liu Ming tacitly.

Liu Ming rode the Purgatory Nightmare towards the World Guild members.

The two sides soon collided during the battle.

Just when the players watching the battle thought they were about to see an intense battle where both parties were almost on par, the Berserking Knight—the first to come into contact with Liu Ming—was sent back to the revival point by Liu Ming’s Berserking Slash.

One of their members was instantly killed right after the battle began. As a result, World’s Best and the rest were frightened; the spectators were also astonished.

“Damn it! He has a full Purple Outfit, yet he got killed in a second as well?!”

“Damn it! A Second-Promotion player is so terrifying?!”

“Big Shot Floating Cloud is impressive himself. It seems like World’s Best and his fellow guild members are doomed.”

…

The ordinary players made various comments about the battle while the major guilds’ players began to contact their presidents.

After all, the strength Liu Ming just displayed had far exceeded the expectations of the major guilds’ senior executives. Thus, they had to reevaluate Liu Ming’s might.

…

After World’s Best saw Liu Ming killing his fellow guild member in one second with just a single Skill, he was shocked, but he also had an ominous hunch. However, the current situation caused them to be caught between a rock and a hard place. World’s Best had no choice but to charge forward and attack Liu Ming with his fellow players.

At this moment, the battle had truly begun.

No. In fact, it was more like a one-sided massacre by Liu Ming than a battle.

Under Liu Ming’s sharp sword, the people of World Guild behaved as if they were random, insignificant players facing a powerful Boss-level player, who easily managed to kill them in a few strikes.

The battle—which was as easy as pie for Liu Ming—left the various players in shock. They only recovered from the shock and reacted after World’s Best had been sent back to the revival point for a long time.

“Damn it! Big Shot Floating Cloud is impressive.”

“Damn it! They’re gone so fast.”

“Can someone analyze what is going on? Those bunch of b*stards from World Guild died too quickly. I just came back to my senses, and they’ve already disappeared.”

“What’s there to analyze? World’s Best and his fellow players were defeated by Big Shot Floating Cloud. They still have the cheek to call themselves a top guild’s senior executives.”

“Seriously speaking, World’s Best and the rest are very strong. They’ve just met a tougher match—Big Shot Floating Cloud.”

…

While the ordinary players discussed the battle, they were astonished to receive messages from the major guilds’ senior executives.

Although the various major guilds’ senior executives felt that World Guild did not deserve to be on par with them, they had to admit that the gap between the major guilds and World Guild was not large since they were still in the development stage.

Although the major guilds’ senior executives had scruples about Liu Ming, they never took him that seriously.

The major guilds’ senior executives, World’s Best, and the others surprisingly shared the same thoughts about Liu Ming. They felt that there was a limit to Liu Ming’s strength, even though he was currently stronger than any of them.

However, the battle’s results told them that Liu Ming was not just a little bit stronger than them now.

…

In Qingfeng Pavilion’s Guild Residence, the president—Qingfeng Wuji—smilingly said, “This time, the World Guild should lay low for a while.”

Qingfeng Wuji, World Guild’s old rival, was naturally the happiest to see World’s Best and his fellow players getting defeated. However, Qingfeng Wuji was even clearer about what World’s Best was like, precisely because they were old rivals.

Hence, after laughing for a while, Qingfeng Wuji said to Qingfeng Changge—who was also laughing happily beside him, “Changge, contact Floating Cloud. Just tell him that World’s Best suffered a huge loss this time and that he definitely won’t give up just like that. I hope Floating Cloud will be more careful.”

In fact, given the current situation, although Qingfeng Wuji’s words were true, there was no way World’s Best could find trouble with Liu Ming for the time being given the current situation, no matter how much he resented him.

After all, the effects of being defeated in this battle would affect the World Guild far beyond just leaving Lotter City. Their reputation would also be severely affected.

Of course, those were just things they said after the incident. Qingfeng Wuji’s only agenda now was to get close to Liu Ming.

Qingfeng Wuji was not the only one. Other than the senior executives of Despising The World—which was recognized to be the top guild—who remained still, the other major guilds all began to think of ways to forge close relationships with Liu Ming.

After all, Liu Ming’s current displayed battle power was already enough to affect the rise and fall of a guild.

Therefore, the major guilds’ senior executives now thought they should at least avoid making Liu Ming hate them, even if they could not get close to Liu Ming.

Even some guilds’ presidents—who initially had the same thoughts as World’s Best—were now somewhat glad they weren’t the ones with their reputation affected.

…

Compared to the other guilds that were rather lively at this moment, World Guild’s members were demoralized.

This time, World’s Best challenged Liu Ming to a battle mainly because he wanted to change the ordinary players’ opinions toward the World Guild and prove that World Guild’s elite players were not weak.

If World’s Best and others won this time, they would prove World Guild’s competency, even if they only won by a small margin. However, all of World’s Best’s plans were foiled after he was sent to the revival point by Liu Ming.

That was not all. Their defeat this time proved that World Guild only bullied the weak and feared the strong. At the same time, it also forced them to leave Lotter City and compete with the other guilds for their territory.

Now that the major main cities’ resources had already been shared among the other guilds, the players of World Guild might not be able to beat the local tyrants despite being strong.

If it weren’t for the fact that the major guilds had a reason to gang up and boycott World Guild once there was a breach of agreement, World’s Best would not have been willing to take that step. However, there was no cure for regret in this world. Since things had developed to this point, World’s Best had no choice but to move out of Lotter City with his guild members.
