Chapter 642: First A Grade
Continue forwards. The road ahead wasn’t simple anymore and there were monsters all around. Each step we took we had to clear monsters. Lin Xi pulled out Fallen Frost Sword and said, “Charge across, kill all the monsters blocking. Be quick!”
“Yes Guild Leader!”
Everyone pulled out their swords and pushed forwards along with the firepower from the back. I led the way and brought Orange Night and White Bird forwards to clear the path for the team. Most of the monsters were Pioneer Ghouls and Pioneer Cavalries. Luckily they provided many points so it wasn’t a waste.
Just like that, we followed the corridor forwards. Not far away, my Shifang Flame Spiral Eye noticed a giant mountain. There were many NPC troops fighting here but the area was surrounded by Pioneer Army troops. The dense Pioneer Cavalries blocked the entire mountain peak.
Dragon Spine Peak (A Grade): After occupying, provide 300 thousand points for members every day, current occupier: Dimension Legion Army
……
The human race troops are about to be wiped out so this place is recognised as the dimension legion’s.
“A Grade.”
I looked at the peak, “We have to take this down.”
“Yes.”
Lin Xi pointed southwest and said, “I just got the news and in that direction, Elements is getting another A Grade one. We mustn’t fall behind.”
“Understood.”
I nodded and pointed the dagger forwards, “Brothers charge and surround this peak, clear the cavalries on it!”
“Charge!”
The sika deer cavalries charged right away. In another direction, a few small sized guilds were charging toward the mountain. If we were slow, we might fight with them. If a guild had too many enemies, it would be bad for reputation. For With You, our reputation was important. After all, we just began.
“Peng peng peng!”
I used Dark Shadow Jump to jump about. I walked to the front of the guild and if the monsters were only Pioneer Cavlaries, they couldn’t threaten me at all. Lin Xi rode the White Deer to charge with me. The two of us were like blades, leading the Sika Deer Calvaries to slice open the dimension legion monsters.
“Charge and occupy the high ground first!”
Mundane Slaughter held his daggers to kill the cavaliers that were charging. He said solemnly, “Shen Mingxuan, Gu Ruyi, Firefly and I can cover the range to gather with Lu Li and Lin Xi. We need to stabilise on the mountain and we would win.”
“En!”
Thus, with the protection of a bunch of Assassins, With You’s strongest ranged team started to gather. Five minutes later, a bunch of people reached the mid-waist of the mountain. Sika Deer Cavalries were outside, the support and ranged were inside. We started to kill the pioneer cavalries that charged over. Our coordination was perfect.
“Look there!”
Moonlight Firefly pointed and got close to the peak. A flag waved. When we looked over, we saw the golden word Formation Flag.
“Formation Flag!”
Nine Song smiled, “Taking it down means we take down the area. The event introduction mentioned it before.”
“Not simple.”
Mundane Slaughter shook his head, “Look, there is a boss guarding the flag!”
As expected, if we looked closely we could see a general in green armor holding a blade. He stood there with the protection of a bunch of pioneer cavalries. From afar, level 145 Legacy Grade Boss. The A Grade protector was a level 145 boss. Seemed like the difficulty of these places was the boss!
“Just Legacy Grade!”
Lin Xi frowned and said, “Cal, lead team two to open the path. Cover Lu Li and me to kill the boss. Let’s occupy it first. Team 1 follow me!”
“Okay---”
Cal used Return Slash on the monsters and shortly after, she led the second team to open up a path. Lin Xi and I led team one to charge and we were to destroy the boss.
Since the guild became level 7, With You’s internal system changed. The few teams were gone. Team 1 was still the most elite team, 1000 people and they were led by Lin Xi. Team 2 was also the main force, 1000 people led by Cal. Next was team three led by Light Lantern. Four was the ranged firepower team, the strongest ranged players were there and Shen Mingxuan led them. Team 5 was the Assassins and I was in charge. Team 6 was led by Haotian, 7 by Mundane Slaughter. Although he was an Assassin but his reputation and commanding skills were there. Thus Lin Xi forced him out of the Assassin team. As for Team 8, it was the newbie expert Heaven Timber.
After the reorganisation, With You had 8 teams of a thousand and after which two more will be built. With You should reach a peak in the mid game, a true team.
……
We got close to the mountain peak and the formation flag waved. When we charged up, the boss raised his blade and laughed coldly, “Arrogant humans, do you think you can take this place from my hands? Stop dreaming, even if you come you are just asking for death. Brothers charge and smash them!”
He led the Pioneer Cavalries over. At that moment, I saw his name clearly.
Rising General Kast (Legacy Grade)
Level: 145
Introduction: One of Pioneer Valen’s rising generals. He relied on his blade and was unstoppable. He contributed in the Pioneer Army charging into the corridor and once killed two human majors. He is violent and cruel. If you face him, you must be careful.
……
Looking at the introduction, Valen should have many such rising generals. Anyways these were just normal monsters and along with other mobs, they formed the strong Pioneer Army!
“Attack!”
Lin Xi pointed his sword and said, “Surround him and ranged players attack. Ignore the boss’s berserk state and kill him quick!”
“Yes Guild Leader!”
The players charged forwards with no care for their lives. I smiled bitterly as it was time for me to work. I used Dark Shadow Jump on the general and then used Annihilation+Hunter’s Edge+Flames of Karma+Apprehension. Instantly I drew aggro. The general sliced and his blade glew.
White Cloak!
After forcefully dodging it, I used Dragon Will to cause him to stumble. I used Light Shield Wall and entered Darkness Transformation. I was the main tank. With the Paladin skills, I was suited for this position. Once I used Ash Fortress and LIght Shield Wall, I was an Assassin that was tankier than Paladins.
Ranged players entered and fired. They also forced the boss into a berserk state.
“Heal Lu Li.”
Lin Xi used Ancient Totem and Return Slash to maintain her damage. When her damage was slightly higher she was attacked. I used Self-sacrifice and that stunned her. Her eyes were filled with glee, “Wow, I feel so safe!”
Not far away, Cal smiled, “Why are you two flirting?”
“Where got?”
Lin Xi was helpless and she continued to attack with her sword.
Just like that, with our core players’ persistent attacks, the Legacy Grade boss died within two minutes. His body collapsed and he dropped one orange and two purple pieces of equipment. I didn’t even see anything. I was the worker in this battle and I didn’t care much about Legacy Grade equipment.
I turned around and that flag still fluttered in the wind.
I raised my hand, “Lin Xi, the guild leader has to take it, you go.”
“En.”
Lin Xi rode the White Horse over and retracted her sword. She raised the flag and at that moment, a bell rang in the guild channel--
“Di!”
Guild Notification: Congratulations Guild Leader Lin Xi for obtaining the Dragon Spine Mountain flag, With You guild occupancy value +30!
……
“Pata!”
Lin Xi stuck the flag to the ground, “We just have to defend this area from others. At 12, we will get the point rewards.”
I smiled and looked into the distance, “Lin Xi, are you happy with just an A Grade? I heard that there are S Grade ones. Occupy one and we will get 1 million points. One S Grade can compare to 3 A.”
“It won’t be easy!”
Lin Xi looked down and smiled, “Look, they are still attacking. If we send our main force, we might lose this!”
“No worries, let the division occupy it!”
I sucked in a deep breath, “The main guild should open up new land. If we charge out, we can get more points too right?”
Lin Xi burst out laughing, “Okay I am tempted by you. What you say makes sense, I shall listen to you!”
“En!”
