MMORPG: The Elementalist

“… Bloody Wolf’s Demonic Land. What is inside this place?”

The bonfire camp was surrounded by a stone wall. A warrior with a “Jail” marked on the front of his chest was leaning on the east wall, holding a shabby map-like thingy on his hand. He kept looking around and continued asking his comrades unanswerable questions.

“…”

The surrounding players with good equipment did not respond to the Warrior’s questions, nor did they even move a bit or change their sight’s focus. They were already used to it, given that this guy had repeated his questions countless times for these two days.

The players sat back to back with each other. Some of them were looking at the sky while some of them investigated the settings in the camp. Some of them even drank beer.

In the Underworld, the player’s inventory space was very important, and even a light burden could impact the player’s life…Hence, it was why Demigod players in the Underworld would not craft such a useless liquid.

However, from a normal player’s point of view, they did not know when they could leave their current place. This was why they often had one or two beers in their inventory to delight themselves. Those who did not have beer with them could only sit on the sidelines and do nothing, or maybe resort to sleeping on the floor…

At that moment, a Pyromancer demonstrated a little trick with the bonfire. The Pyromancer placed one hand in the bonfire and created an illusion of a flaming snake. The snake was dancing wildly within the bonfire and consistently changed its form. A little trick had now become an entertainment show in the camp…

“Hey there!”

On the west side of the camp, were approximately ten or more players. Obviously not in a coalition with the Angel Faction, they yelled, “Hey, the one playing with fire! Can you give us that worm to play?”

“…”

Nearly twenty Angel Faction’s players stared at the red-named player, who had provoked them…

“Worm? This guy is obviously messing with us!”

“Damn you.”

The Warrior that held the map suddenly stood up from the stone wall, drew his Dark Gold Sword and pointed at the player who provoked them.

“Worm? Take out your ‘dick’ and we will see. Let us see if your ‘dick’ is bigger than this worm of yours?”

“Yea!”

“Good one!”

“Just show it man! Let’s see if yours is bigger than the worm or not!”

“Hmph! How lewd!”

Hahaha…

The laughter of the men and women made the camp lively again.

The players from the Demon Faction became speechless and mortified the player who provoked the Angel Faction earlier.

“Stupid!”

The player who first provoked the others was a Tier 5 Pyromancer. He saw the Angel Faction’s Pyromancer proudly playing with the fire and thus, mocked him deliberately and wanted to have a duel with him. Who would have known that in the end, he would be verbally embarrassed by the warrior opponent.

When the Demon Faction’s Pyromancer saw his male and female comrades all burbling about him, he was enraged and yelled harshly at the people from Angel Factions, “Bunch of cowards! Come and fight me if you dare!”

Angel Faction’s players slowly stopped laughing when they heard that. Obviously, they were startled. At first, they saw the Pyromancer getting enraged, as if he wanted to kill his opponents in an instant. Then, they saw another player with a redback behind the Pyromancer who was trading with a Demigod Bandit. The player looked very strong and this made the Angel Faction’s players frightened.

All eighteen of the Angel Faction’s players were from Black Jail League and Hall of Heroes. Each of them had good equipment and two of them even had full sets of Legendary as well. However, they were still on the downside when compared to the Demon Faction’s players.

“…”

Currently, the Angel Faction’s players in the camp had a slight advantage in the number of people that they had. Yet, only yesterday, twelve of them were already defeated by just four people and not to mention, got chased all the way back to the camp. This revealed the fact that they had been completely overwhelmed…

The situation was even worse when they returned to the camp!

Demon Faction’s players had never been in Underworld’s camp before, and suddenly, forty plus of them appeared!

That was a devastating amount of individuals!

The initial intention for Black Jail League and Hall of Heroes to train in the Underworld was halted by the situation. Initially, after Qin Ruo had returned to the Mythical Continent, Black God and Majestic Hero wanted to make use of the Summoner’s Teleportation abilities to connect the Underworld and Mythical Continent. By using the power of both the Black Jail League and Hall of Heroes, they planned to construct a Potion’s transportation channel.

The Demon Faction’s players sudden arrival had left the people from Black Jail and Hall of Heroes in disappointment.

Worst still, was the fact that these players were all from a newly formed League in the Demon Faction. Among them, there were at least ten players had who had a Divinity Crystal. Besides, they had a Shadowmancer who demonstrated his capabilities which were close to that of Tier 5 Champion yesterday. Unless Hall of Heroes dispatched their main force, they couldn’t possibly take over this camp again!

Obviously, the news of Winter Demon returning to Mythical Continent had motivated many players. Not only had Black God and Majestic Hero started to target the Underworld, but also aiming for it were the Leagues and Clans from Demon Faction. Within the camp, there were thirty Tier 5 players. Ten players one Champion from the Demon Faction had currently a Divinity Crystal in their possession. Such boundless power was clearly able to destroy a gathering ground.

Fortunately, there were Demigod Champions in the camps governing the area. If not for that, those eighteen players from Angel Faction might have been in danger. However, they had lost the right to leave the camp freely.

If they left the camp, they would not be able to get protection from the three Demigod Champions anymore. This implied that the Demon Faction’s players could attack them anytime in surprise.

The Demigod Champions would refuse to take any action even if both the factions had activated their Angelic Wings and Demonic Wings. What they could do was to just leave the area when the Undead were attracted here. This would cause the last hiding place for the weak players to vanish as well.

“Hmph!”

The Pyromancer had reversed his embarrassing situation yelling and that was when he started to get arrogant again. He walked proudly to the bonfire and touched the fire…

Huff!

The flame from the bonfire suddenly expanded. Right before the flames were about to hit the surrounding Angel Faction’s players, they contracted back to the Pyromancer’s palm and formed a flaming snake’s illusion.

Unfortunately, little tricks like that did not work on the Angel Faction’s people and they looked on as if looking at an idiot’s performance…

“Tsk!”

After a while, the flaming snake’s illusion disappeared and the Pyromancer mocked in glee. “Bunch of cowards! Hah!”

He then turned his back to them and walked away. He knew that such provocation was useless against them. The most they would do was to quarrel with each other, and none of them would dare take the first step to fight as they were under the supervision of the three Demigod NPC.

The Angel Faction’s people had more concerns than the Demon Faction for the Demon Faction’s Deputy League Master was just inside that tent, where he chose the Attribute Booster…

Only the Deputy League Master alone could destroy the whole Angel Faction’s team in the camp right now.

“…”

“Damn it! If I don’t leave this place as soon as possible, I will go crazy!”

As the Pyromancer walked back to his own place, the Warrior with the sword could not help but feel that he had been deeply insulted. However, he couldn’t do anything but to just sit back down on the floor.

It was already the third day that they were in the Underworld…

When they were here the first day, they investigated the surrounding areas and stumbled upon one gathering ground’s location. Unfortunately, their plan was unexpectedly destroyed by the Demon Faction’s players.

In these few days, they had not accomplished anything at all and worst still, they were stranded there by the Demon Faction’s players. If such a situation prolonged, it would really drive them nuts.

“Shut up Howard! Our comrades from Black Jail were here for half a month already, but we were here for only three days. What you are rambling for?” The Pyromancer beside the bonfire spoke calmly, as if nothing happened at all just now.

The Warrior with the sword “Howard” did not give in at all, and he said, “You think this was easy for us? You think it is easy to get stranded here by them for such a long time? Damn it! Of course we felt insulted…”

“Majestic Hero will not abandon us.”

Right at that moment, someone spoke…

“Big boss will definitely not abandon us, but…”

While speaking, he used his chin to point out a guy sitting inside the tent.

“Look, that guy has already exchanged so many potions in these few days. Perhaps the “gathering ground” that we had discovered had already been plundered by them too! If they took over the place and brought in more Demon Faction’s people, do you think we still can survive?”

“It won’t be that easy to take over the place.”

The Pyromancer spoke nonchalantly, “They won’t be able to take down the gathering ground of the Undead by today…”

“What about the day after today?”

Howard looked as if he wanted to argue with him.

The Pyromancer stared at him. Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly lowered his head and carefully tried to listen for something. At the same time, Howard and the others surprisingly did the same as well.

After half a minute!

All the Angel Faction’s people looked very excited. There was a Summoner drawing a warp portal circle with his feet…

The Shadowmancer who was talking to the NPC got attracted as well. He looked at the warp portal, which was pulsating in a gradual glow beneath the Angel Faction’s Summoner.
