Sato had come with a plan to deal with the two enemies. Quietly, Sato ran towards the marshland swamps, looking around for his target. Eventually, he found what he came for.
Underneath the swampy water, laid a dark green scaled beast. If one were to not look carefully, they would not be able to tell that a wild boss was laying there asleep. The wild boss was The Marshlands strongest boss, the Aquadile. A crocodile beast could blast strong water projectiles at it's enemy.
Noticing that the wild boss did not move when Sato stood near it, Sato sniggered and un-stealthed himself. The two assassins ran together, eventually, spotting Sato 'stuck' in between two tree trunks.
"Hehe. This time we got this in the bag." The two assassins unsheathed their blades, leaping directly at Sato. Right as they struck down on Sato's position, he used Blink, disappearing and had gotten himself on land. The wooden trunk splintered and exploded, disturbing the peace and quiet in the marshfields. A loud roar sounded from beneath the water.
"Rarghhhhhhhhhhhhh! " Two beady red eyes blinked in the dim lit environment. The two assassins had disturbed the peace of the Lv50 wild boss. Normal beast crocodiles were only Lv40, which can be easily soloed by the higher leveled assassins. However, this was a wild boss that required at least a proper team of 5 to defeat.
The Aquadile used it's Hydro projectile to attack the enemies. Eventually, their health reached below 20%. This gave Sato the chance to strike and Assassinate them, giving him easy experience points.
"You have leveled up!" The large difference in Levels allowed Sato to level up to Lv21.
Alright, time to head back, Sato thought. As the Elven Assassin left the swamp and reached back to the fighting grounds, the Triple Threat Guild had already loss their numbers advantage.
" You... You shall pay next time! I will remember your names!" The young master warned, while trembling in fear. "Let me leave and I will spare you some mercy."
Gray stood infront of the Golden Armoured young master unmovingly. Using his rapier, he did the final deed and ended the man's life with Crimson Slash.
"Weak." One word was enough to express what Gray was thinking.
The group of 5 that accompanied Gray and Sato had unfortunately become a group of 3. The mage and warrior had died.
"Wow you are really strong." Harry praised Gray. If it weren't for Gray, they would not have been able to make it out alive. The Lv40 player suppressed 5 players by himself. Killing each of them in 4 to 5 strikes.
"Oh yeah! Your brother! He.. He was attacked by two assassins. I don't know whether he made it out alive..." Samuel felt guilty for not being able to protect Sato.
"Brother! Waaaa... That was so scaryyy... I almost got eaten by the big boss crocodile... The two enemies died under it's hands.." Sato whined.
"They died?" Everyone was shocked at Sato's luck. He had managed to escape a wild boss?
"Yeah." Sato replied proudly. "I ran as fast as I could!"
The three remainings were truly surprised. This brother duo are out of the ordinary. Even when underleveled, they are able to transcend levels and defeated the higher leveled players.
"Well, shall we continue? We are almost at the spawn point." Harry said.
"Sure. Let's go." Gray replied. While they were walking, Gray private messaged Sato.
"I never knew you could act this way."
"Hehe. I am a pretty good actor right?" Sato praised himself.
"Yeah."
"You are pretty good yourself too, boss." Sato made sure to make his boss happy.
"Thank you. I learn from the best."
When the group reached the spawn point, Harry's team added Sato and Gray, before departing to meet up with their friends that died. Gray and Sato let them keep all the equipment as a reimbursement for their troubles. The equipments were useless for the two of them.
"Where would you like to go?" asked Gray.
"Let's go Trentham City to scout a bit." This was where the Dragoon family resided.
"Alright." The pair stepped on the spawn point, teleporting to the undead faction city.
When they reached, the boys were welcomed with a Halloween-look environment. The spawn point was in the city center. There is 8 different routes that opened up from there. The houses were all victorian era shophouses. The streets lit up using pumpkin lanterns or skull lanterns, with pebbled roads laid on the ground. The place was packed with the undead faction players. Races like the vampire, skeletons, orcs, orges, witches and many more shopped in this city.
The game was set that if you are in a human faction, you are not allowed to spawn at an undead faction city, vice versa. However, if you are part of a neutral faction, like the elves, you are allowed to go to both human and undead cities.
"Wow. It's really dark in the undead city." Sato said while walking around with Gray. Even if it was day time in the city, there would be a dense fog that covers the whole undead faction, preventing much sunlight from entering. "Where should we go to gather intel?"
"Let's head into a diner then." Gray suggested. The two of them went into a casual restaurant called Rusty Oaks, sitting down by the windowsill. They order a simple beverage before listening into two NPCs conversing.
"Recently, I heard about the Dragoon Family deploying a bunch of adventurers to rescue some important lady. However, the mission became a huge failure and the adventurers were unsatisfied that they got no reimbursement."
"Right. I heard about that news too. The Dragoon family is rather stingy when it comes to rewards and reimbursements, however, they are the powerhouse of this city and so there is no point rebelling."
"Oh! Have you heard about the new recruitment that Dragoon family has started?"
"No. What is it about?"
"They are recruiting adventurers again, but this time, it is to destroy those bastard human faction members. They are planning to attack the small human city, Paleta City. The recruitment started yesterday."
