Went Different Ways

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this time, those who followed Xiao Yu previously had left, except for Killer Codename 38 and Fearless. As these two had participated in the plot event and had been awarded some Reputation Points, their Modes had been advanced from Normal to Rare Elite.

In addition, there were three Gnolls with them, two of which were Rare Elites, and the other probably had just started playing the game, hence he was only a normal Gnoll Warrior even though he had participated in the plot event.

"It's over, our boss is dead. What should we do next?" a Gnoll cried.

"Sh*t, stop crying, it's just a game. He can just create another character. Besides, you can take over your bBoss' position since he's dead now. If I were you, I'd hurry back to the camp to seize his power. Just don't stay here to die."

After listening to Xiao Yu's words, the two Rare Elites looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes. They then turned around and ran towards the direction of the Gnoll camp.

Seeing the three Gnolls disappear from his sight, Xiao Yu shook his head and walked in the other direction.

As Fearless felt that the direction they were going was not quite right, he asked curiously, "Boss, where are we heading? Aren't we going back to the camp?"

Killer Codename 38 said, "What's the point of going back? All the Goblins in the camp are dead."

"Not necessarily," Xiao Yu muttered. "Although our Goblin camp has lost many people, so did the other Monster Forces. So there is no need to worry about being attacked for territory right now. Also, the Adventurers are all chasing to kill the Bosses now, hence the camp is the safest place. As long as we go back and develop it well, our camp will become strong again."

Xiao Yu took out the Chief Goblin's Staff and said, "I don't intend to go back to the camp anymore, but if any of you want to go back, I don't mind giving this staff to you. With this, you can become the boss of a Monster Force. Although this Monster Force is a little small, and its future might not be bright, it can at least allow you to level easily in the early stages and you can get to experience the feeling of being a Boss. Do any of you want it?"

Hmm. The two Goblins looked at each other and hesitated. In fact, this was a huge temptation. They had seen Xiao Yu's imposing figure as he led them as a boss. Who did not want to have a taste of this? However, they had just joined the game not long ago, and they were afraid that without Xiao Yu's command, they would not know what to do when they went back.

And Xiao Yu had a point—this Goblin camp's development was not promising. After all, the highest level of the monsters in the Night Whisper Forest was only a bit more than 10, and some weaker ones were of single digit level. Even with the help of the followers, they could not level up past level 17 or 18.

But the temptation of being a Boss was really huge. Finally, Fearless bit his teeth and stamped his feet. "I don't want it, I want to follow the Boss!"

But Killer Codename 38 turned his eyes. "Boss, what do you think about me going back to be the Chief?"

Xiao Yu nodded casually. He threw the staff directly to Killer Codename 38 as he said, "Take it if you want."

Killer Codename 38 was happy at the moment he got the staff, but then he frowned, "But this staff can be used by Mage Class only, what should I do with it?"

"That's simple, just create another account. With the help of your followers, you will be able to level fast." After that, he explained Goblin Diviner's class-changing in detail.

Killer Codename 38 was instantly overjoyed as he listened. "Good. Thank you, Boss Eric!" He then took the staff and ran away quickly.

Looking at the back of Killer Codename 38, Fearless felt a bit bitter, and even regretted not taking the initiative to take over the staff.

"Let's go, we need to leave, there's no value in remaining in this small pond. We have a long way to go." Xiao Yu turned back and looked at Fearless with profound meaning. "Besides, the Adventurers are about to attack the Goblin camp. We should take this chance and run further away."

"What?" Fearless was stunned when he heard this. "But didn't you say that the Adventurers will pursue the Bosses first?"

"Yes, but the question is, who knows where the Bosses will go? With their common sense, they will definitely go to the camps first. Since Killer will buy us some time, we can run further."

"I see!" Fearless was scared after hearing this. Fortunately, he had not tried to be smart and go back just now.

Not long after they left, a team of Adventurers appeared at the place where they were at.

"Hoo, why haven't we caught up with them? Those monsters are really running too fast," Supreme Sword complained.

"Don't worry, we should be able to catch up soon. Look at these tracks here. It's obvious that someone passed by here. It's only two o'clock now. We'll catch up with them before dawn if we follow this path."

Tearless exclaimed, "What, two o'clock!? Damn it, I still have to go to work tomorrow. We'll go offline first."

But Non Cat-Eating Fish was attracted by the game. "Sister, let's just play for a while more. We haven't caught this Boss yet."

"Get offline and go to bed, or I'll go and tell dad."

"All right, all right, I'll go offline now." Non Cat-Eating Fish seemed to be afraid of her dad, and had to compromise.

Although the rest were unhappy with their teammates going offline halfway, they were female players and hence they could not say much. Moreover, they had given away their equipment just now. Hence, they could only say good night to the two Elves, add them, and watch them disappear.

Hell Baron's Father asked, "What now? Are we still chasing?"

Supreme Sword gnawed his teeth. "Chase. Why not? We must kill that Goblin Boss today."

Leftover Fighter then asked, "Will we be able to defeat it with only three of us?"

Supreme Sword laughed. "What are you afraid of? We've leveled in the past two days, and got a lot of good equipment. Our strength has improved a lot. Last time, when we were just around level 12 or 13, we almost killed that Boss. But we're level 15 or 16 now. What are you afraid of?"

Hell Baron's Father nodded. "That's right, but I feel like we forgot something."

"Forgot something? Of course, you dumb ass. You forgot that monsters can level too. You don't even know that players can play monsters in this game. What a newbie." The Succubus at the side sneered but did not express it at all.

After thinking for a long time and not remembering what they had forgotten, Hell Baron's Father waved his hand. "Let's keep chasing. Come with me, Nataya, don't fall behind."

"Yes, Master!" the Succubus named Nataya said in a sweet voice and followed closely behind him.
