For a person of Falling Dust's level, every slot in his friends' list was worth its weight in gold. Just as he was about to blacklist this person, he saw the ID of the person who sent the message.
A Long Road.
Rich man.
Forget it.
Falling Dust did not really like A Long Road. He despised rich second-generation heirs like him who only had money but no skills.
However, he had a lot of resources and a wide network. It would not be good to strain this relationship, especially in a new world with huge potential like "Fallen God". Having an ally was better than having an opponent.
Furthermore, from the other party's tone, it was obvious that something urgent had happened.
Then why did he look for me and not someone else?
Wasn't it because he felt that I was capable and powerful? That he thought of me the moment he encountered difficulties?
Falling Dust felt much better after consoling himself.
"Endurance"
When the right time came, he would just find a random reason to decline.
He was clinging onto Marian now and earning dozens of experience points every minute. He didn't have time to go elsewhere to help others deal with their troubles.
[Falling Dust]: Brother Road, I'm here.
[Falling Dust]: Why are you in such a hurry? What happened?
[A Long Road]: I don't have time to explain! I'll send you the coordinates later. Hurry up and bring your guild members to help me make a scene!
Make a scene?
Hehe, truly smart people would busy themselves with leveling up and exploring the world. Only rich second-generation heirs like you like to fight for the sake of your pride everywhere you go!
You want me to forsake this old auntie who is devoted to me to make a scene for you?
Not even a dog would go!
[Falling Dust]: Brother Road, I'm actually doing a very important time-limit mission right now. I'm afraid…
Just as Falling Dust was about to reject him tactfully and send the message "I'm afraid I can't help"…
[A Long Road]: Remember to be quick, pal! Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to collect the corpses of Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat!
Falling Dust's hands that were typing stopped.
Wait, why did these two names sound so familiar?
He searched through his mind. Almost without much effort, Falling Dust instantly remembered.
Holy sh*t!
Weren't these the two guys who caused a stir in the forums with their cheat-like leveling speed?
Falling Dust's heart burned with excitement. Many people were looking for Big Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat to figure out the secret behind their rapid leveling up.
Of course, he was one of them.
Could it be that A Long Road was with them?
Before Falling Dust could confirm with A Long Road, A Long Road had sent him coordinates and… a video recording.
When Falling Dust clicked on the video in confusion…
He was dumbfounded.
Fire God Sect Bishop? Dreadclaw Lair? The hypnotized Boss? Amethyst Grass? Evil Ritual? Mysterious countryside girl?
Flaming Shock… Flaming Spear Spell… Fireball Spell… Class Three magic… Magic Barrier… Flaming Whip…
Who am I? Where am I? Are we playing the same game?
I'm either looking for lost puppies or running errands and delivering letters to the villagers all day long. At most, I go to the edge of the forest to hunt. But all of you are already witnessing magic in every direction and holding extremely large rituals?!
Through the video, the sharp-eyed Falling Dust immediately noticed Big Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat behind the mysterious countryside girl named "Vivian".
As for why Falling Dust insisted on adding the word "mysterious" to the village girl.
What nonsense. Have you f** king seen any ordinary villager that could confront a f** king Fire God Sect Bishop with a magic whip in each hand?
Outsiders watched the show, while professionals watched the technique.
A Long Road had been hell-bent on finding Eugenia for revenge, but what Falling Dust saw was…
Main Plot Mission! Hidden Plot! Super NPC!
Tsk!
No wonder those two idiots could level up so quickly!
It was because they were clinging onto someone powerful!
Without hesitation.
[Falling Dust]: Brother Lu, wait for me! I'm coming!
After sending the message, Falling Dust turned around and was about to leave. He saw that the location was not far from him. If he rushed at full speed, he would be able to get there in less than ten minutes!
"Eh? Why are you leaving? I just found a new job for you. You don't want it anymore?" The old auntie was anxious when she saw that the handsome boy was leaving.
"Just now, there were a few foreigners like you who asked me to look for jobs for them. If you leave, I will have no choice but to give the job to them." The old auntie spoke with a note of threat in her tone.
"No need, thank you, ma'am!"
Falling Dust waved his hand without looking back, leaving Marian standing at the entrance of the village, trembling in anger as she watched him leave.
Ma… Ma'am?!
Previously, you said that I looked like your mother, but now I'm a ma'am??
Falling Dust could not be blamed for changing his attitude.
After all, there were two important NPC characters in the video A Long Road sent. One was a highly revered long-legged bishop, while the other was a petite and mysterious girl who was suspected to be a key character in the main storyline.
Both were more attractive than the old auntie!
Clearly, there was more than one person who had such thoughts.
After A Long Road deliberately used the video of Vivian and Eugenia's confrontation as bait, no player could refuse.
Aside from Falling Dust, A Long Road had reached out to everyone who had some ability within the range of Fire Codex City.
As a result, a vast army of players gathered towards the Dreadclaw Forest from all directions.
"Boss, do you think it will work?"
"Could it be that no matter how many people we have, we would still be soundly defeated?" a subordinate asked worriedly.
Unlike the gamers who were tricked by the video, they had personally experienced Bishop Eugenia's terrifying abilities.
"Hmph, enough ants can bite an elephant to death. Before I was locked up, I secretly checked Eugenia's interface. She's only a little over Level 30. Besides, it's not like we don't have high-level combatants. Isn't my goddess one?"
"That's true, but… Boss, I'm afraid that your goddess won't be able to hold on until we rush over to support her." The people under A Long Road seemed to all be terrific conversationalists.
"Sigh, I wonder how Vivian is doing now. How's the battle in the lair…"
He had just finished talking to himself when he saw his boss's face darken because of him.
Seeing that he was about to be beaten again, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said before A Long Road slapped him,
"Boss! Boss! Wait a minute! Aren't Big Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat still in the lair? Won't we know the situation if we contact them?"
Unfortunately, his intelligence did not allow him to escape the beating.
"Rubbish, do you think I'm stupid? The two of them have already turned off their "friend communication" function. How do you want me to contact them?!" A Long Road said angrily internally.
Due to the previous commotion regarding their leveling up, too many people were seeking them out to know how they did it. Big Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat had already shut off their communication and hadn't opened it up since.
However, things had changed.
"You're so stupid, Boss! Did you forget that there's a regional channel? We're in the Dreadclaw Forest right now. Use the regional channel to reach them!"
"They've blocked their friends but not the regional channel!"
What the f*ck!
When A Long Road was reminded by his subordinate, he instantly slapped his forehead. F*ck, how could he have forgotten this method!
As there were very few people in the closed beta testing of "Fallen God", the number of people here was very small compared to the size of the entire "Fallen God" world. Therefore, the number of people in a regional channel was pitifully small and no one spoke in it at all.
A Long Road excitedly opened the regional channel and was typing furiously. He entered countless exclamation marks in an attempt to attract the attention of Big Watermelon and the Mage God of Close Combat. Just then…
Someone unexpectedly sent a message before him in the barren Dreadclaw Forest regional channel. And that person was Big Watermelon.
The message was short.
Only two words.
"Escape quickly!"
At the same time, a sharp system notification ding sounded in the minds of all the beta testers based in the Fire Codex City.
[Ding…]
[The Grade SS urgent mission "Dark Wave Assault" has been triggered in the area you are currently in. Please decide within 30 minutes if you want to participate in guarding Fire Codex City.]
[00: 29: 59…]
Grade SS urgent mission?
Dark Wave Assault?
Guard… Guard Fire Codex City??
Looking at the striking red countdown on the mission board, A Long Road was completely dumbfounded.
Just what…
What in the world had happened??
