Upon receiving the announcement about the monster siege, a subtle smile played at the corners of Su Yu’s mouth.
Activating this monster raid wasn’t for the purpose of killing the Wolf King again, as the Wolf King only provided 1000 points of experience, and the drops did not improve his situation much.
Su Yu was doing this to demonstrate to the players on the forum who were badmouthing him that the Wolf King was not a monster that current-level players could kill.
To shut the mouths of those trolls in the forum.
After all, Su Yu still needed to use this batch of equipment to recruit gang members in the future. If he didn’t take this action now, those trolls would surely continue to harass him. That would be disgustingly sickening.
After all was done, he left Wolf King Valley in Sunny Wind Village and returned to the sixth newbie village.
Meanwhile, Sunny Wind Village was in an uproar.
Right after they received the system announcement, the news that “Monster Siege has appeared in Sunny Wind Village” quickly spread throughout all newbie villages.
Players across the server gathered once more, preparing to take on this monster siege.
Major guilds such as Emperor Blood, Zhan Tian, Mu Yun, and more didn’t care about their reputations, they assembled squads and headed into Wolf King Valley, hoping to snatch away the siege boss.
However, those responsible for the attempt found embarrassingly that they couldn’t penetrate deep into Wolf King Valley. They were forced to retreat after only a few steps by the patrolling wild wolves in the valley, and they could only awkwardly return to the village to stand guard.
An hour later, the [Howling Moon Wolf King] the second, along with its hundreds of wolf spawns, began its assault on Sunny Wind Village.
As Su Yu expected, the wolf pack commenced a one-sided massacre of the players.
The [Howling Moon Wolf King] the second was after all a level 10 boss, the
[Taunt] skill of the level 4 and level 5 shield bearers were powerless against it.
The Wolf King went straight for the back row, massacring the vulnerable priests and mages indiscriminately.
The players were slaughtered in droves, calling for their parents amidst a sea of white light.
The wolf pack claimed victory at every turn, persistently pressing closer. Half an hour later, all the players in the game received another system announcement:
“Ding! Sunny Wind Village has fallen under the onslaught of the [Howling Moon Wolf King] and will be in an unusable state for the next 48 hours. Players are advised to take refuge in other villages!”
According to the descriptions from the few players who saw the Wolf King last, the [Howling Moon Wolf King] still had 46% of its health left even after the monster siege ended!
Upon suffering such a significant blow, the atmosphere on the forum changed instantly.
All previous voices that had criticized Su Yu as a “thief” and a “robber” vanished, replaced by a chorus of complaints:
“The [Howling Moon Wolf King] is too strong! It moves so fast it’s like teleporting!”
“This Wolf King ignores proper combat etiquette, it completely ignores the shield bearers and targets our back row! Who can withstand that?”
“And this Wolf King also has about a dozen bodyguards! Each one of them is a level 10 boss! How could anyone possibly kill them?!”
“I really want to know, how did the first Wolf King die? Who killed it?! Whoever killed it must be incredibly strong!”
“Could the first one have been killed by a bug?”
“Quit fooling yourself with a bug! You’ve been playing games for so long, have you even seen a bug?”
“Er… actually, no.”
Until now, there was no one criticising Su Yu in the forum anymore. Instead, everyone was curious: how did the first Wolf King die? Who could be so powerful?
Su Yu didn’t pay much attention to any of this.
After returning to Nolan Village, he immediately went to Wolf King Valley to grind levels in seclusion.
This time, he was going to stay in Wolf King Valley until he reached level ten.
An hour and a half later, he received the announcement about the fall of Sunny Wind Village, while Snow Fall sent him a congratulatory message:
“Senior, the siege boss is really powerful! It completely destroyed Sunny Wind
Village! I bet those trolls in the forum won’t dare to criticize you anymore!”
Su Yu: “That’s expected. At this stage, players are not capable of dealing with the Wolf King. I am quite aware of that.”
Snow Fall: “So, how did you kill the Wolf King?”
Su Yu: “A high-level NPC that was passing by gave me a buff.”
Snow Fall: ‘
Snow Fall: “I have another question. When are you planning to form the Yellow Turban Army?”
Su Yu: “Let’s wait a bit longer, until a majority of the players reach Level 10.”
Snow Fall: “Alright.”
The two ended their private chat.
The main reason Su Yu wanted to form a guild was to prepare for a core gameplay element in the later stages of the game — the Mage Tower. As player levels increase, the number of equivalently leveled wild beasts decreases.
By the time you reach level 84 as the [Star-forged Dragon King], there are only 12 NPCs in the entire game that are stronger than the Dragon King, so there’s no way to level up by killing beasts.
As for completing quests, they don’t give much experience either.
So, in the later stages of the game, mages must build Mage Towers, hurling massive amounts of Warcraft materials into the core Mana Pool of the Mage Tower, and only by purifying and absorbing the magic energy in the Mana Pool can they level up.
These Warcraft materials are accumulated by players, and the amount required is enormous!
If Su Yu wants to reach the peak of strength both in the game and in reality, he must have millions, even tens of millions, of players silently collecting materials for him.
Only by relying on the combined strength of everyone can he build a top-tier combatant capable of opposing Skuru.
(This is precisely why Su Yu despises Zhan Tianjian; how could such a formidable person who was built with the sacrifice and resources of countless people betray them? Unforgivable!)
Originally, Su Yu planned to cooperate with Country in the later stages, but now he thinks it’s better to form a guild first and train a reliable team.
With his mind in thoughts, Su Yu continued to slaughter the [Howling Moon Wolf] in the valley.
At 7 p.m., Su Yu finally filled his experience bar and leveled up to 10!
Once he reached level 10, all online players received a system alert:
“Ding! A player has leveled up to 10, the level leaderboard is now open!”
Hearing this system alert, productive leveling areas in various novice villages fell silent and then erupted into an uproar:
“What? Someone reached level 10?! I’ve just reached level 4!”
“I logged on quite early today, and I’m only at level 5. Which big shot leveled up so quickly?”
Players crowded to open the level leaderboards on their system interface.
First: Nemesis, Level 10, Mage.
Second: A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, Level 8, Assassin.
Third: Emperor Blood Slays the Sky, Level 8, Warrior.
Fourth: Frost Red Tea, Level 7, Assassin.
Fifth: Cang Shan You Jing, Level 7, Archer.
The players were going crazy:
“I kneel to the skills of the big shots! I couldn’t even reach level 7 after leveling up for 24 hours straight!”
“Nemesis, you’re the forever god in our hearts! You’re even two levels above the second place!”
“Leveling up as a mage early on in the game is really tough, just a few spells and we’re out of mana. How is Nemesis leveling up so fast?”
“While Nemesis is about to head to the main city, I’ll still be stuck in the novice village for a few more days!”
“Man, it’s killing me just comparing with others! ”
Soon, the level leaderboard’s screenshots began circulating offline, and the official forum had also kicked off a feverish discussion about this image.
At the same time, Zhong Feng was eating his bread and browsing the official forum on his laptop.
When he saw Su Yu’s eye-catching “level 10”, he was dumbfounded, and the bread in his mouth no longer seemed appetizing.
Soon, he received a message from his comrade-in-arms [The range is the truth]:
“Mr. Zhong, have you seen the level leaderboard yet?”
“I saw it.”
“How do you feel about it?”
“I don’t feel anything, Zhang Jiao is really amazing!”
“Sigh! We also need to think of a way to catch up. We modern people can’t let
an ancient person beat us in gaming!”
“It’s hard! However, you shouldn’t have a competitive mindset. It’s always a good thing for us humans that Zhang Jiao is so strong.”
“You’re right..”
