Chapter 29
Sean became suddenly energized. He quickly finished his microwave meal in just a few bites. Then, he logged back into his account.
The two of them teamed up and ventured to the Zuma Shrine to kill monsters. Sean’s Warrior took the brunt of the attacks while Carlisle’s Wizard inflicted damage from behind.
Both had mediocre equipment, and Sean’s health bar was nearly depletedral times.
Fortunately, timely healing sustained him through the ordeal.
After an hour of relentless effort, they finally defeated the Zuma High Priest.
Unfortunately, the Zuma High Priest only dropped two skill books.
“Damn! What’s going on today? Is the game glitched? I’ve been playing The Legendary Tale for over a year and never encountered this situation!”
Sean’s eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed his hair in frustration.
Sean wasn’t alone in his agitation. Many players in the public chat voiced similar complaints.
The drop rate for equipment today seemed unusually low.
Suddenly, Carlisle stared at the screen and said, “Sean, there’s a Zuma up ahead in the upper left corner
that’s almost dead.”
On the screen, a rank 47 Warrior battled a red Minotaur.
The Warrior’s health bar was dangerously low.
Sean glanced at the screen, and his gaze narrowed. “That’s a member of the Wolf Clan.”
Any player of The Legendary Tale would recognize this guild.
The Wolf Clan, also recognized as The Hungry Wolves, emerged in early 2004.
Within only five months, it earned a reputation as the most ruthless guild.
Bathing the game world in blood, the pack of wolves howled in the Red Desert. Through the trials of life and death, they stood united as the Wolf Clan.
The Wolf Clan boasted over 70 thousand members, with over ten thousand online at any given time.
They were undeniably one of the dominant forces in the game.
Currently, the Wolf Clan was ranked second. They showed potential to surpass the top guild, Braggs.
“You’re not thinking of robbing him, are you?” Sean shivered.
His guild, Makers of Chaps, held the eighth rank.
Considered a scrub in his guild, Sean lacked the courage to offend members of the Wolf Clan.
“I don’t belong to a guild anyway.” Carlisle rarely came to the Internet cafe since he started to pursue Sarah. He had already left his guild at the end of last year.
Even if he defeated the leader of the Wolf Clan now, they wouldn’t be able to find him.
“I’ll go
check downstairs.” Sean’s heart raced.
He went downstairs and saw that all players of The Legendary Tale were asleep. So, he returned upstairs
and stood behind Carlisle to block the camera.
The internet cafe owner was also a player of The Legendary Tale. Sean feared
Carlisle took a deep breath and directed his character to charge forward.
exposed by him.
The Warrior from the Wolf Clan was named Lone Wolf. He sported a full set of Holy War gear with terrifyingly high attack power.
Two years ago, this set of equipment could fetch a sky–high price in version 1.5 of the game.
Even now, it was still considered top–tier equipment, although the price had dropped significantly.
Carlisle loitered around, killing small monsters nearby.
When the Minotaur’s health dropped to one–tenth, Carlisle launched a sudden attack. He hurled Infernal Blast and Hell Thunder at Lone Wolf.
However, these two skills didn’t inflict much damage on Lone Wolf.
“Damn. Are you asking for death?” A message popped above Lone Wolf’s head. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Ignoring him, Carlisle unleashed several high–level skills at Lone Wolf once more.
While Lone Wolf hurriedly healed himself, Carlisle cast Frost Palm and Annihilation Fire.
Simultaneously, the Minotaur landed a blow on him.
Lone Wolf’s health bar was instantly depleted.
Carlisle approached the Minotaur and continued to unleash his skills.
Three minutes later, the Minotaur was defeated.
