At the entrance of the dungeon, John and Rose glared at the dozens of people on the other side. Just now, they encountered a very common thing in online rpg games. - Culling, or clearance as it's called nicely.
In online games, in order to occupy some resource points like dungeons, drop locations, or the best places to spawn monsters, guild players will gather the strength of the entire guild to clear out individual players in that area. To 'won't that place without any nuisance.
John also played games before the end of the world, but he still didn't expect to encounter such a thing in reality one day.
20 days have passed since the day Damian met them. They got a lot of supplies at that supermarket that day, so they've just been doing normal hunting and reconnaissance since then.
Three days ago, the two of them opened a twenty-five-level dark gold bracelet from a box in the wild. They wanted to use it, but the level requirement became a restriction, so they thought of Damian, hoping to give it to him as a return gift.
Although compared to the more than twenty pieces of equipment given by Damian, one gift in return was a bit less, but it was a thought after all, and they really couldn't find anything else anyway.
Just as Damian said that he would be near the stadium for the next time, the two of them rushed over here. When they came to the entrance of the dungeon and saw the system prompt, they also understood why Damian wanted to stay here.
The two searched around but couldn't find Damian, but thinking that the cooldown of the dungeon was three days, and Damian would come over by then, they spawned zombies nearby, and also cleared the dungeon once during the period. But with their strength they only got past the second trial and were rewarded with two pieces of bronze equipment.
But then as soon as they came out, this team of nearly 50 people came to enter the dungeon.
If these people were simple guys, the two siblings would happily give way and not pick a fight. After all, even though the dungeon was precious, life and their survival was even more precious.
The two of them were ready to leave immediately, planning to find a nearby area to continue waiting for Damian. But just before the two could leave, the person leading this dungeon raid changed his mind.
"Hand over the rewards you got and also drop whatever equipment you're wearing." The big guy said,
The siblings knew very well that there was never an option to leave safely by taking off their equipment. If they took off their equipment and actively surrendered, only a swift death awaited them.
If it was an online game, such PK (Player Killings) wouldn't be so bad, guild players can easily kill lone wolves and rule like a boss.
Obviously if their killings became too much it can attract attention of other guilds or trigger different game mechanisms, like nefariority rating, red tags, hunting orders or log off punishments.
But in reality, there is no such thing as log off. If you kill someone, the person will really die. It is not like in the game where players can resurrect after dying, and you can also expose the crime through various game streams or tweets or social channels.
In the real world where the dead cannot be resurrected, killing is an easy way as no proof, no witness, and no sharing and spilling of any secret.
If it weren't for the fact that the siblings had good equipment and were expected to be strong, how could these people who had numbers advantage ask this politely. They would've directly attacked.
"Look guys, do you really want to fight us?" Rose said as she looked around, trying to find a relatively weak spot.
Both of them were equipped with dark gold and gold equipment given by Damian, and their attributes were higher than those of the same level.
Although it is impossible to defeat dozens of people with two people alone, it is still possible to fight a bloody battle and leave some corpses behind.
"Hey, the beauty speaks." A man with a mustache said with a smile. "We don't want to take action, but look, there are so many of us here, so you should really just give us your all and go."
While asking for everything his gaze sliding over her body, appreciating her figure, and drooling in mind at the sight of what it would look without those bloody armors.
The women he has met during this period have never been of this good. Compared with the weak girls who can only cry, and beg for mercy and supplies, this kind of woman who's out fighting and is fit in figure, must be delicious.
'When she takes off those armors, I must be the first to grab her. These bastards shouldn't defile her before me.' He thought beautifully.
Last time, when they found a pretty girl and he was slow to jump, so by the time his turn to have fun came, that girl's holes were already stretched more than the grand canyon.
(Yeah I was remembering the triple H and Stephanie promo from our childhood when writing this lol. Peak dialogue right there.)
Thinking of this, the man licked his lips, and a certain part of his body began to stir. Rising against those tight pants.
Not aware that nearly everyone in his team also thought and reacted the same.
"Brother, there's no way, we'll just have to fight them." Rose said as she lowered her head and said in a voice that only two people could hear.
"Um." John responded softly with his nose and tightly held the level 10 golden mace given to him by Damian.
Rose raised his head, faced the man's horny gaze, and softly said, "Can you ensure that my brother and I can leave safely after taking off our equipment?"
"Of course, of course, we are not beasts after all. You can trust us." The man said hurriedly, even taking a step forward slowly.
"Well." Rose pretended to put her hands on the leather armor, and as if teasing them, slowly opening it. While everyone's attention was on Rose's curves and little exposed skin, John suddenly took note and launched a brazen attack, smashing two people's head in one hit.
...
By the time Damian arrived, the two sides had been fighting for a long time. The situation of John and Rose was very bad. Although the two of them were better than these people because of their equipment and attributes, the gap in numbers was too big to overcome.
"Damn it, bitch, I will definitely teach you later. If I don't fuck your brains out I'm not the son of one father. (Ek baap ki aulaad nahi.)
"Idiot." Rose once again tried his best to kill one person, spitting out swear words as she missed the hit.
"I hope you can still be so arrogant when I'm shoving my dick and doing backshot on that tight ass." The man laughed angrily, as he charged forward madly, forcing Rose to step back until her legs hit the wall.
"Brother, it seems that I can't run away this time." Rose said with a bitter smile, ready to end her life instead of getting captured by these villains.
"Don't say that, I'll hold them, you take the opportunity to run away." John spat out a mouthful of blood and said unbelievingly.
Unfortunately, hard words and nice feelings don't really help much. Under the attack of everyone, the situation of the two of them became more and more precarious. Rose's arm was stabbed again, which seriously affected her movements. She took a deep breath and aimed the tip of the knife at her own throat.
Even if she died, she'd die with dignity.
But just when Rose was about to commit suicide, an afterimage flashed past among the lightning and flint, and the heads of seven or eight people surrounding her flew high into the sky, and falling down like rolling balls.
What the fuck… . ???
Everyone was shocked, but before they could react, several more people were cut into two, their bodies splitting blood on their buddies faces.
Damian was moving around in the crowd unimpeded. He was killing them very easily, almost like a full-level player who accidentally entered the novice village and torched everyone.
To him, these people are all ants. If they all stood in one line, he could even kill them all in one slash. They didn't even deserve his second slash, let alone any skills. Just wave a sword and heads will roll.
The sudden massacre caused the siblings to be stunned silent. One moment, they thought it would be a certain death, but next moment, they were safer than a saint.
They couldn't see clearly what happened. They could only see people being cut into pieces one after another. Many people wanted to escape, but the speed of their running was far less than the speed of the shining sword..
The difference between facing the enemy head-on and turning around and escaping is only being dismembered from the front and being dismembered from the back. That's it..
"Brother, it can't be him, right?" Rose suddenly reacted and asked.
Apart from Damian, who broke into the supermarket by himself and took out more than 20 pieces of precious equipment, she could not think of anyone else who could kill like this in a mad frenzy.
And sure enough, when the last person was disembowelled, the blurry afterimage stagnated, and the familiar demon mask covered in blood came into view.
'It really is him.' Rose thought, gulping her saliva in fear and shock.
