Chapter 48: Misty Rain Guild’s Recruitment, First World War

Li Yi returned to the vicinity of the Iron Bear Ridge. This was an important first transition sublimation ground. The Iron Bear Ridge’s Bear King’s respawn rate was around an hour.

There were already quite a number of players here. Their names began with the word Misty!

“Misty Rain Guild?”

Li Yi nodded. It seemed that this city was one of Misty Rain Guild’s major residences. It would probably be a little difficult for Scorching Sun Guild and the other guilds to develop in this city.

Right now, Li Yi was heading towards the Iron Bear Ridge. He definitely had to meet up with these fellows. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he stored the magic weapon in his inventory. In any case, he had to store them when he entered the city.

When he arrived at the Iron Bear Ridge in front of him, a player walked out and shouted from afar.

“You there, what are you doing here? If you’re here for the first round of sublimation, then I’m sorry in advance. Our Misty Rain Guild has already arrived. Let’s talk about it after all of us have completed the first round of sublimation!”

Li Yi directly walked forward and said, “I’m just passing through here!”

Right about when the player was about to lose his temper, he saw the other party’s decked out battle armor and black cloak. Then, he looked at the ID above the players head and swallowed his words. He immediately notified the main players inside.

Li Yi did not continue to pay attention to him. He walked straight in the direction he wanted to walk. Soon, he saw three players coming towards him. The one in the front was a girl, followed by two warrior players.

Their names were Misty Moon, Misty Maniac, and Misty Bloodlust. The three of them seemed to be high-level players, and their equipment looked like they were definitely above fine-tier.

Misty Moon seemed like a mage. Li Yi noticed that she was a very pretty girl. Her cloth armor could not hide her graceful figure, and her towering breasts seemed to be bursting out of her clothes!

Misty Moon was a rare woman indeed. Her looks could be said to be on par with Snow Chaser, and both of them each had their own merits.

“Carefree Dream, nice to meet you!”

Misty Moon walked over with a smile and extended her graceful little hand.

Li Yi extended his hand and gently shook her extended hand. Then, he greeted her indifferently, “Hello!”

Misty Moon’s eyes revealed a trace of shock. The male players she usually met were almost 100% attracted by her beauty. She was baffled as to why the person in front of her did not show any fluctuations in emotions. It was really strange.

Misty Moon was starting to lose confidence. Could it be that her charm had decreased?

“Carefree Dream, let’s talk things out straight. I believe that you know about how Divine Revelation works. If you work alone, it’ll definitely be very difficult to improve. Why don’t you join our Misty Rain Guild?

“Our guild is extremely friendly to players. As long as you join us, we can discuss other benefits too!”

The members of Misty Rain Guild were not spread all over the Novice Villages and so did not know many players. Having players like Li Yi could be said to be the dream of every guild. Now that they had coincidentally met, they had to rope him in as quickly as possible.

Misty Maniac immediately interjected and said, “Right, as long as you join us, our guild leader can take care of you!”

Li Yi shook his head and directly said, “No need. I still have to rush to complete a mission. Let’s talk again when we have time in the future!”

After saying that, Li Yi directly walked away from the group, leaving behind the three people who looked at the gradually disappearing figure in confusion.

Misty Bloodlust was extremely displeased by his behavior. “What the f*ck! This guy only knows how to act cool! Our guild has such good benefits, yet this guy refused to join?”

Misty Moon frowned and berated the other, “Shut up. Players like these are encountered by chance and would only join by luck. Perhaps we didn’t have anything that attracted him. However, I believe that he will definitely join in the future.”

…

Li Yi continued to head into the city. Along the way, he met many players. Almost all of them were now level 10.

This was also the result of the experience bonus from the system. If a certain number of players reached level 10 and above, the lower level players would receive a certain amount of experience bonus. The lower the level, the higher the bonus.

This was also to allow those players who did not enter the game immediately to have a support that could catch up with the players in front. Otherwise, if the players ahead were strong, the players in the back would be left fighting Black Rats for the rest of their game lives.

“Hehe, I’m level 10. After grinding for so long, I finally succeeded in changing classes!”

“What’s the use of changing classes successfully? There are only two places around Emperor City that can upgrade you further. One is going to Iron Bear Ridge, and the other is going to the Undead Canyon. F*ck, even the guilds have occupied all of them!”

“That’s right. I heard that those guilds are still recruiting more players because of this. After all, the bonus from Tier 1 is extremely high.”

“That’s for sure. I heard that if any of these guilds become the first to upgrade to Tier 1, they will definitely be the first to occupy most of the bosses or something like that. You have to know that within the game, only the bosses will drop good stuff!”

“Forget it. I don’t like joining guilds anyway. I have to fight and kill monsters every day. I also have to complete the guild’s missions. It’s too troublesome. Even if you beat me to death, I won’t join them!”

“Me too!”

“…”

Along the way, Li Yi had heard a lot of solo players complaining about the dominance of those guilds.

Li Yi did not mind it. These guilds were just a small matter to him.

Take Emperor City for example. It was a city that could accommodate 50,000,000 people. There were countless guilds of all sizes in the city. Whether it was inside or outside the city, there were countless good spots in Emperor City that were currently unoccupied.

Leveling spots, ores, medicinal herbs, and so on were all extremely important resources. Right now, the guilds did not have the time to care about anything else. They could only seize the time to inspect and occupy the various important resource locations.

Meanwhile, those small guilds occupied locations that the large guilds did not have the time to inspect. Ordinary players needed to join a certain guild to thrive. After all, many guilds lacked manpower.

However, there were also some solo players who would rather die than join a guild. They would go to those places that no guild was interested in to level up. There were quite a number of such places, but the chances of finding one would be much harder!

Li Yi said that these were just small skirmishes. That was because the guild had yet to discover those extremely important resource locations. Any guilds that would be the first to find it would make the others green with envy.

When that time comes, a bloody war of the century would slowly rise. Countless players would be massacred fighting for their territory. Countless guilds would be disbanded because of this.

Only when the various guilds finished dividing up all of their resources would this war become weakened. However, that does not mean it would truly end.

In fact, this was not only the case for Emperor City. The other small and medium-sized cities also faced the same situation. They were all fighting over their cities’ resources.

During that time, it could be said that many guild players had lost countless levels. The most pitiful guild had even been massacred by an enemy guild into a level 0 state.

Hence, among the top 100 players in the world rankings, only the unaffiliated players were left. There were only a few powerful players in the guild rankings.

Hence, from then on, many guilds suffered heavy losses. A large number of ordinary players even withdrew from the guilds out of fear.

From then on, many guilds tacitly agreed that it was better to fight fewer battles at this level. Most of the battles were at the level of small-scale elites.

This large-scale battle was also referred to by some busybodies as Divine Revelation’s First World War!
