Hu Die Lan

Chapter 78 Forced and Helpless

The dozen or so people who had been knocked every which way hadn't even had time to adjust their moods when they saw the dozen or so players from Tyrannical Ambition, who had been suspiciously hiding behind trees and moving, rushing past as well. Those closer to them took the opportunity to gain a little advantage, throwing a grenade or casting a spell, and then, without wasting any time, continued to chase after the goblin merchant, after all, that was the real purpose of everyone gathering here.

The dozen or so people who had once again been knocked every which way were depressed. Just as they were readjusting their moods, Blue Brook Guild's troops also came roaring in.

"Trash! What a bunch of trash." Blue River mercilessly berated these competitors, and then led a group of his subordinates to take advantage of the situation, slashing a few times and casting a few spells.

Pitifully, these dozen or so people were tossed around back and forth like this. Some had bad luck, some were more susceptible to aggro, and some had more advantages taken from them, directly dying on the spot.

Car Front was half-dead with anger. Not only did he fail to stop the Boss, but he was also robbed while the fire was burning. He directly sent a message to Blue River: "You beasts!!"

"You're all a bunch of trash, you can't even stop that," Blue River replied.

"Damn, even if you had arrived half a day earlier, you wouldn't have been able to do anything," Car Front replied.

"Same to you," Blue River replied.

After that, both sides were silent, with a strong sense of foreboding in their hearts.

Ahead, the goblin merchant was taking more and more damage, and it was clear that Tyrannical Ambition's reinforcements were gradually arriving. Every time Blue River and the others tried to catch up, they were avoided by Tyrannical Ambition's flexible OT (off-tanking). The goblin merchant's movements were irregular, which made everyone irritable.

Blue River had originally hoped that the interception by Herb Garden would allow them to pick up a bargain, but who knew that Herb Garden's people were so useless. Helpless, he had to return to his original plan.

"Two people in a group, find Tyrannical Ambition's people and take care of them!"

The goblin merchant was impossible to capture. Occasionally, they could hit it once or twice, but this was equivalent to helping Tyrannical Ambition with their output. They couldn't steal the aggro, so they couldn't take the initiative. If they continued to waste time like this, Tyrannical Ambition's output would be enough, and whoever wanted to kill this Boss could kill it. As long as their team was still there, the ownership couldn't be snatched away, unless they were all driven away or killed.

Therefore, snatching a Boss was actually quite difficult. If you arrived too late, the output couldn't be recovered, so you could only take the path of killing people and robbing the Boss. This turned into PK (player versus player), which was much more difficult, because the level of people was always very close. Killing people was always more difficult than killing monsters, and it had endless consequences.

Blue Brook Guild didn't have to consider any consequences now. They were used to PK being triggered when snatching a Boss with a direct opponent like Tyrannical Ambition. For them, the more crucial thing was that Tyrannical Ambition's strength was almost exactly the same as theirs, so even if they used this trick, the result was still fifty-fifty.

But in any case, it was better than watching helplessly. Blue Brook Guild had more than twenty people arriving one after another. At this time, they were divided into more than ten two-person groups, spreading out in the forest on a large scale. As soon as they saw Tyrannical Ambition's players, they immediately rushed over.

The goblin merchant was no longer the only focus, Tyrannical Ambition's people were. The two-person groups that discovered targets carefully approached them.

But chasing people wasn't easy. Everyone's levels and equipment were similar, so their movement speed and stamina were similar. In the end, it was just a stalemate. While chasing, Lei Mingdian Guang suddenly spoke in the team channel: "Huh, where did the goblin merchant go? I can't see it."

His words woke everyone up. Everyone had only focused on the target in front of them, but what about the ultimate goal after this target? Was it still there? Everyone paid attention to this, and then they realized that even those who could still see the goblin merchant had suddenly become very far away.

"We've been tricked..." Xi Zhou reacted.

"Let's give up on this Boss!" Blue River announced in frustration.

The guild members were silent. This kind of situation was rare in a famous guild like theirs. Feeling despair halfway through a fight? This kind of mentality was usually only produced when exploring some unfamiliar new dungeons or new Bosses. But what about now? It was just a goblin merchant, a small Boss that everyone was familiar with, and the opponent was also the familiar Tyrannical Ambition. Just because there was an additional Lord Grim in their formation, it had created a difficulty like exploring a new dungeon, and had quickly forced them to give up.

"Hey, why aren't you chasing?" Car Front sent a message at this time.

"We're giving it to you," Blue River said.

"What trick are you trying to play?" Car Front asked suspiciously.

"You'll know if you chase."

Since Car Front and the others had just switched from intercepting in front to chasing from behind, they hadn't fully experienced the freakish method Tyrannical Ambition was using this time to control the goblin merchant's movements with OT, so their morale was still high!

However, this was only a matter of moments. After chasing for a while, Herb Garden was also completely shocked by this OT movement method. After trying left and right without being able to break it, Car Front heavily announced: "Two people in a group, start killing Tyrannical Ambition's people."

Although Blue Brook Guild's people had already given up, they still followed along casually to watch the excitement. When they saw Herb Garden chasing and killing Tyrannical Ambition's people in the same way as them, they suddenly felt very happy!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk." The crowd was full of such sounds.

Five minutes later, Car Front sent a message to Blue River: "Your sister! Could you have just said it?" Obviously, they had also discovered that this tactic was ultimately still being played with.

"Would you have believed me if I had said it?" Blue River replied.

Car Front pondered for a long time, then replied heavily: "Absolutely not."

"Then that's the end of it," Blue River said.

"What are we going to do now? Are you giving up?" Car Front said.

"Yeah," Blue River said.

"I... I still don't quite believe it," Car Front said.

"Your sister..." Blue River said helplessly.

When Herb Garden's people returned in a dispirited manner, Blue Brook Guild's people were not far from them, but the goblin merchant was very far away from them.

The other miscellaneous guilds or players, those with some skill had already seen that Herb Garden and Blue Brook Guild were being played by the other side. These two major guilds had skill and organization, but in the end, they didn't get any benefits. What could these second-rate guilds and other scattered soldiers do?

At this time, if everyone could unite, perhaps there would still be hope, but would anyone take the lead?

Car Front was eager to try, and approached Blue River directly to speak: "We can't kill it, but we can't let Tyrannical Ambition get this advantage! Let's organize everyone together, and it doesn't matter who gets the first kill, just don't let it be Tyrannical Ambition."

"Is it really necessary to create such a big scene for just one goblin merchant?" Blue River said.

Car Front thought about it, and indeed, it wasn't necessary. This was just the smallest wild Boss, and Tyrannical Ambition getting it didn't prove anything. The road ahead was still long.

"I'm just not willing to give up!" Car Front said.

"Then go ahead, I'm not stopping you," Blue River said.

"Damn, I'm not going to do something that takes so much effort and doesn't give much benefit all by myself!" Car Front said.
