"However, please note that the teacher from the Magic Academy will only recognize one by one's clothes and not the person. If you lose the magic apprentice set midway, then the actual owner of the set will become a student of the school. Other than that, there is a special magic restriction on your set now. In any case of your death, regardless of the circumstances, another set of magic apprentice equipment will be dropped. Due to the special magic fluctuations on the set that will allow the teacher to know your location, you will be unable to turn off this magic restriction. Furthermore, you will have to stay online for more than three hours a day to provide the teacher with your location."
Hearing this, Reyker immediately turned off the live broadcast, but this news was still heard by all the netizens in the live broadcast room.
Hidden class, platinum set.
Any one of the two could cause a war in "The One", but now, both were combined and placed in front of all the players.
Although most of the people in the live broadcast room were Reyker's fans, a murderous intent emerged at the bottom of their hearts.
Immediately after, a post on the forum rushed to the top of the trending list.
[Willing to pay a very high price for magic equipment that deals additional damage to werewolves. Enchanted weapons or secret potions are both acceptable.]
Following this, many analysis posts appeared. The netizens began analyzing each of Reyker's skills and his characteristics to find out his weaknesses.
At the same time, hundreds of assassin groups targeting the sis-con appeared. Their goal was to gain Reyker's set equipment.
Even a large number of bounties had been posted on the dark web.
Some wanted to buy his real-life identity, some wanted to buy his family information, and some even requested kidnapping.
In "The One"'s mercenary guild, someone offered a reward of 10,000 gold coins for Reyker's magic apprentice set. (the exchange rate is 1:1 for game coins and USD).
However, this reward was quickly drowned out because someone immediately offered 30,000 gold coins.
Following that, another person offered 100,000 gold coins.
200,000 gold coins.
400,000 gold coins.
The amount finally stopped when it came to 550,000 gold coins.
Seeing this reward, even Reyker almost couldn't help but accept it himself.
However, he knew that the potential of the hidden class was far more than these gold coins. When the main storylines of the various city-states were opened in the later stages of the game and the wars between countries started, the power of an advanced mage would be terrifying.
At that time, the appearance fee for an advanced mage would be far higher than 550,000 USD.
[The dungeon is about to close.]
[Player, please leave the dungeon within 30 seconds.]
When Reyker exited the dungeon and appeared by the river, he discovered that he was being tightly surrounded by the members of the Fierce Tiger Guild.
Reyker looked at the group of well-trained level 15 players in front of him and sighed, "Andrew, do you really want to fall out with me?"
"Line up!" Andrew's voice came from the back of the team.
Reyker watched as Andrew, who was fully equipped with silver equipment, walked over with a huge golden axe in his hand.
"There are 100 level 15 players who have already chosen their classes here. These are the most elite forces of the Fierce Tiger Guild. To teleport them here, I even gave up the fight for the Holy Maiden City district."
"So? Do you think you can take me down with just these people?"
"No, I'm saying this to make you remember how hard the Fierce Tiger Guild has worked to protect you."
Hearing this, Reyker was stunned.
"No matter how strong you are, you will still have weaknesses. Let the Fierce Tiger Guild do our best to protect you."
"This is a huge gamble," Reyker said.
"If we don't gamble, how can we succeed?"
"Alright. If we clear this quest, the members of the Fierce Tiger Guild will be my, Reyker's best friends."
"Reyker?"
"My real name," Reyker said.
"My name is Liu Fengsong, the boss of Dongxing Department Store."
At the same time, a large group of players had gathered at the outer perimeter of the Twisted Forest.
One of them stood on high grounds and took the lead to say, "Although the sister-con brother has lit up the bonfire in the Twisted Forest, the most dangerous place for him is actually the safest place. If he were to teleport to another safe zone, he would be surrounded by tens of thousands of players the moment he appears. On the contrary, he will be able to find a place to hide in the Twisted Forest. Everybody, charge with me!"
Following this, the team of tens of thousands of players charged into the forest.
In an instant, the low-level monsters in the forest were devoured by the human tide.
"Guild master, what should we do now?" The deputy asked worriedly.
Even if they were the elites among the elites, it was impossible for them to face the attack of tens of thousands of players.
"Stall for time. After they have rampaged through the Twisted Forest and reach us, we will follow our plan and immediately teleport to the outskirts of Holy Maiden City. There are still many monsters there that have not been eliminated."
Everyone tensed up and waited for half an hour. The forest in the distance lit up.
"So fast! We spent more than a day to reach this place back then," the deputy gulped.
"Don't panic. We only had a few hundred people when we first explored this place. They're in the tens of thousands of people, it's a given their efficiency will be higher than ours. We, however, are not brainless monsters."
"We found him!" When the first player rushed out of the forest, he was pleasantly surprised to see Reyker, who was being protected by a group of people.
Following this, dozens of fireballs flew out that directly destroyed him and his corpse. He turned into a white light that returned to the safe zone to revive.
"Kill them all, remember to keep an eye on your MPs."
The players that rushed out of the forest were killed by the mages and archers as soon as they appeared.
On top of that, the members of the Fierce Tiger Guild surrounded the bonfire tightly, preventing the newcomers from lighting it. By doing so, if the opponents died, they would have to return to the safe zone outside the Twisted Forest to revive and come back again, which would take another half an hour.
However, as time dragged on, the firepower of the team began to decrease.
Andrew immediately shouted, "Everyone, don't be stingy with your consumables. All consumables will be reimbursed!"
Just like that, they held on for another five minutes. Finally, the main group of players arrived.
The fireballs emerging from the forest were already more than the number of fireballs coming from Reyker's side.
Many of the shield warriors had already fallen.
"Everyone, gather according to the plan. Resurrect the dead immediately and enter the teleportation point. If the nuns are not able to resurrect anybody in time, just use the resurrection scrolls."
With this, one by one, the members of the Fierce Tiger Guild began to step into the bonfire.
Seeing this scene, someone in the forest shouted, "Quickly increase the firepower. They're running away."
