Chapter 132: The First to Kill the Boss! They Could Go and See Moss’s Grandfather Now!
??
“Alan, you set up the paralyzing gasses in the shadows. The rest of you stick to the plan,” Moss commanded his teammates as he held his Frost Knight Holy Sword.
The four figures quickly dispersed into the surroundings. Then Moss and the other three attacked the Terror Monitor Lizard and Brutal Brown Bear from four different angles.
Of course, the wave of attacks had the main acts and their supporters. Moss and Bass focused on driving away the Magical Beasts to ensure the beasts didn’t escape from their control. Meanwhile, Mill was the core of their onslaught.
Mill had risen to level 11 after the professional competition. Although it was only one level, the power of her skills grew exponentially.
Under Mill’s fireball, the beasts fled toward the water element Baylon released to alleviate the fireball’s burning sensation. Moss and Bass also redirected the other beasts that went astray toward Baylon.
Thus the many lizards and bears fell into The Guardians’ trap and gradually entered the shallows.
Then Moss waved his sword as he walked among the beasts just when they thought they had found a way to alleviate Mill’s fireball.
Soon after, frost began to form on the beasts’ bodies. Some seemed to realize the danger and tried to escape from the shallows but couldn’t at that moment.
Meanwhile, Alan’s paralyzing gas began to take effect. Some of the higher-leveled beasts, even though they could somewhat resist the paralyzing gas, felt themselves gradually slow down due to Moss’s ice-sealing skill.
The beasts inevitably became ice sculptures in the shallows.
“Wow, that made the mission so much easier!”
“I enjoyed destroying snowmen and ice sculptures when I was a kid!”
The Guardians destroyed hundreds of ice sculpture-like beasts. Then waves of cheers and chants echoed in spatial rift number eight.
After Moss adjusted their tactical advances, The Guardians completed the tier 1 mission in six and a half hours. They cleared their mission ahead of time, and more importantly, their coordination became even more tacit and skilled after going through the hellish limbo of the tier 1 mission. They even surpassed the original Team Moss’s proficiency.
Then The Guardians smoothly accepted their tier 2 mission. They were excited when they saw the tier 2 mission’s contents.
“Kill 60 Terror Monitor Lizards and 30 Manic Giant Apes. Time: 24 hours”
“Failure to complete the mission will affect the conqueror’s qualification to compete and results. Points will be given according to completion performance.”
“Your team will receive the tier 3 mission if your team completes or forfeits the tier-2 mission.”
Alan patted his head and said proudly, “Am I seeing things? Isn’t this mission a little too straightforward?”
“It looks like your previous analysis was on the dot, Moss!” Mill looked at Moss admiringly, her heart filled with approval.
Bass and Baylon gave Moss a thumbs up as they looked at him with incomparable praise.
“It’s not yet time for us to celebrate, comrades. We’re not first yet, so we must work harder and be the first to kill the Mystic Realm Boss!”
Their tier 1 mission completion did not blind Moss because he knew what The Guardians’ final goal was.
…
Meanwhile, in spatial rift number five, the Thunderbolt Squad faced the vast prairie. They seemed to have seen the dawn of victory.
After swiftly completing the first two tiers, they were the first to receive their tier 3 mission. That gave the Thunderbolt Squad enough confidence to be the first to kill the Mystic Realm Boss and finally conquer the Mystic Realm.
Their next mission was as they expected, as it went exceptionally smoothly. An hour later, the Thunderbolt Squad arrived at the edge of the tier 3 mission’s core area. However, what they saw shocked them.
“W-Who did this, Captain Mili? What a terrifying sight!”
“That’s the Two-headed Winged Tiger, right? Isn’t that the Mystic Realm Boss?!”
“Considering the dried blood on the floor, this battle ended at least twenty minutes ago. In other words, a team took less than forty minutes to kill the boss.”
As the Thunderbolt Squad discussed, Mili realized that his team’s quest to conquer the Mystic Realm had ended.
Then a mechanical voice came from the spatial rift, “Congratulations, Guardians. You were the first to kill the Mystic Realm Boss. You have obtained ownership of this Mystic Realm. Please feel free to check each team’s ranking and rewards. See you next time!”
Although Mili was disappointed he could not conquer the Mystic Realm, he felt it was okay that his team claimed second place. It was still in line with his overall expectations. Moreover, they received generous rewards for placing second. Getting only a two-star advanced violent gauntlet made their trip worthwhile.
“The Guardians? I’ve never heard of that team before. Are they experts from another city?” Mili fell into deep thought when he saw the team’s name appear on the mission panel.
‘This three-star Mystic Realm is more suited for the Thunderbolt Squad. Although it is a remote area, it was still in Black Panther City. Losing in that realm is a pity.’
‘Wait, that’s right! Although we didn’t conquer the realm, I can look for The Guardians and ask them to cooperate with us! Then we won’t have to go to another city to level up.’
Mili’s family was one of the most influential families in Black Panther City. They possessed power and money.
Mili knew The Guardians would agree if he used his family’s money and influence. With that thought, he quickly gathered his teammates and ran toward the Mystic Realm’s exit. However, he couldn’t catch a glimpse of The Guardians’ shadows even though he ran out as fast as he could.
Disappointed, Mili could only return home for the time being. He would look for The Guardians with his family’s influence.
…
Meanwhile, forty minutes before the Thunderbolt Squad completed their tier 3 mission, the cooperation between Moss and his new teammates grew even more solid.
They quickly arrived at the tier 3 mission’s core area. The boss of the Arabesque Mystic Realm was the Two-headed Winged Tiger siblings.
As bosses of the three-star Mystic Realm, they possessed the ability to sense their opponents’ strengths. However, the two bosses had differing perceptions of their opponents’ strengths.
The three bosses could sense that the highest level member among The Guardians was no higher than level 14. Even with adequate equipment and potions, The Guardians would not exceed level 15.
The three bosses, at level 16, knew a level 15 opponent couldn’t defeat them. Still, that was far from the truth. They never expected Moss to possess a knight’s agility right and was a knight who could upgrade his class indefinitely with the help of the Ultimate Class Evolution System.
Moss could strike with strength ten times higher than an ordinary knight because he was a grand knight. He could also withstand attacks or damage at least twenty times higher than an ordinary knight.
The Mystic Realm Bosses underestimated their enemy and paid the painful price, getting decapitated.
…
Mili couldn’t catch a glimpse of The Guardians because after conquering the Mystic Realm, Moss entirely focused on visiting his grandfather.
When the other members of The Guardians discovered Moss’s intentions, they clamored to follow him to his grandfather’s house to experience the countryside life.
For the children who grew up in the city, the opportunity to experience a rural life was undoubtedly more novel than the success of raiding a three-star Mystic Realm or obtaining equipment and experience.
Therefore, they immediately left the Mystic Realm and rushed toward Lloyd’s house without stopping.
