Cool Thin and the other three were not merciful at all.
When they saw that Roaming the World and his group were already beaten up, they took this opportunity to take their equipment.
“This is...”
Cool Thin was holding an information scroll in his hand.
He had never seen such a thing before, so he was very curious about it now.
The man next to him said with a cold tone, “The information they received before probably came from this scroll! I never imagined that these fools had such valuable things on them!”
Then, Cool Thin opened the information scroll and looked at it.
[Team battle is an important form of battle in the world of Sword and Magic. Players should figure out how to form teams! Later on, there will be team dungeons which would require four to six players. If the team formation is not good enough, they will die on the spot!]
[Next, the team function will be activated. Players can form strong teams outside of the Guild!]
[Once again, team formation is very important. You need to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each class.]
The contents of the scroll appeared.
However, they did not notice the information about the royal family on the back of the scroll.
Now that they had read this, they were all surprised.
After all, they had been aiming for a team battle from the very beginning.
Even if a player in the team was good at wielding swords, in order to perfect the lineup, he would still obediently raise his shield and act as a tank.
“In that case, our choice was correct!” Cool Thin said joyfully as he revealed an excited expression.
“Yes!”
The few people beside him nodded their heads in agreement.
They had spent all this time building up their team formation and strengthening their lineup. Finally, they could make use of it.
It was clearly written on the scroll that the team function would be activated later on.
There might even be a ranking system.
They would soon be able to figure out how much combat power their team lineup had, and where they ranked.
“Wait! Maise the God and his three familiars! Could it be that...”
As Cool Thin said this, a bad premonition surfaced in his mind.
It was possible that Maise the God also knew that there were team dungeons and team battles to come.
Therefore, he nurtured three familiars and developed them into a solid lineup for team battles.
When he thought of this, a grim expression appeared on his cold face as he said to his companions, “The lineup of Maise the God and his three familiars includes a mage who can carry out long-range attacks, an assassin who can deal close-range damage, and a warrior who can act as a meat shield and deal damage.”
He continued, “Although they aren’t mages, warriors, and assassins in the true sense, it’s definitely not wrong to form a formation like this! The more I think about it now, the more I feel that Maise the God isn’t just focusing on developing his familiars. He’s covering all aspects! Could it be that a Beastmaster can take down our team from now on?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his companions had stifled expressions on their faces.
They had thought of this when Cool Thin brought it up.
Now that Cool Thin had mentioned it, all they could do was stifle their breath.
“Maise the God! He is a few steps ahead of us again!”
Right now, Roaming the World and Tianyu, who were sitting on a ship beside them, drew in cold breaths.
Although they had been robbed, the more important thing was what Cool Thin had said.
“That’s impossible, right? Does Maise the God have this information too?”
Roaming the World was shocked and doubtful. As he spoke, he shook his head. It was obvious that he could not believe it.
He initially believed that he was the only one who had this information.
Before this, he was still feeling smug and happy. He felt that he could seize the initiative and build a team first.
However, reality was cruel.
Maise the God was many steps ahead of them.
When Bandit Sun heard this, his face twitched. Then, he edited a message and sent it to the master of the Xilong Guild.
“Uncle! I told you before to form a team and create a perfect lineup. It turns out that Maise the God has already made his move. His familiars might be his team.”
The message was sent over.
Once again, Bandit Sun received a short reply. “Trash!”
Tian Yu seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said, “No matter. Let’s hurry north! Follow Maise the God!”
As soon as he suggested this, Roaming the World also reacted and hurriedly said, “Let’s go! Let’s see where Maise the God is going!”
For the Grand Sea Guild, they could make up any resources that they lost through their capital and various means.
However, the information in the game was different.
After all, not many people had access to truly important information.
Now, Roaming the World was enlightened.
He found that Maise the God might have access to important information, so he had to follow the other party’s footsteps.
However, things were not going as they wished.
They looked back and could no longer see Rafi Island. In that case, they had no idea where Maise the God was headed.
They were surrounded by river water. A slight movement from the boat would cause them to lose their heading and have no idea where they were going.
“Which direction did Maise the God head towards just now?”
Roaming the World was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Cool Thin and his companions followed their instincts and sailed in one direction.
When Roaming the World saw this, he immediately ordered his group to follow them.
...
Since the countdown had ended, Rafi Island disappeared from the map.
Without a point of reference, there was no way to head to the state region.
However, a new countdown soon appeared.
[Ding! The world of Sword and Magic would like to remind all players that the first half of the passage to the state region will open in three hours. The countdown will start in three hours.]
The players broke down on the spot when they saw the notification.
A player wailed, “We have to wait for another three hours!”
“The gap between us and those people will get bigger and bigger!”
...
Right now, Jiang Bai and Su Muxue entered a narrow waterway.
There were mountains on both sides, and the waterway could only allow two ships to sail side by side.
When Su Muxue saw this terrain, she revealed a worried expression.
“Will there be any danger ahead?”
The further they went, the darker it became.
The light shining down from above had already been blocked by the mountains.
In the face of Su Muxue’s worry, Jiang Bai smiled and said, “Do not worry. Sunlight will appear very soon!”
Upon hearing this, Su Muxue’s face revealed a look of surprise.
Sunlight?
How could he be so certain?
The Cloth Bag trio who had followed behind were also extremely surprised.
Could it be that Maise the God had been here before?
Otherwise, how would he know that there would be sunlight ahead?
Not long after they passed through this terrain, there was indeed a ray of light shining down from above.
Everyone opened their eyes and immediately discovered that the surrounding scenery had become cleared up.
However, what surprised them the most was that this was actually the outskirts of the state region.
A towering city wall that reached into the clouds lay before their eyes. This symbolized the absolute barrier of a state region.
At the end of the river stood a group of people that looked like regional guards. Each of them had the aura of a soldier.
They suddenly began to take action. After they boarded their ships and sailed, they shouted in a stern tone, “We are the regional guards of this kingdom’s imperial family.”
“Warning! You are attempting to enter the Pula Region!”
“Warning! All of you are attempting to enter the Pula Region!”
Faced with this sudden scene, Su Muxue and the others were stunned.
On the other side, Jiang Bai had a hint of a smile on his face.
The so-called Pula region was the region closest to the Abu Haier Kingdom!
Everything was within Jiang Bai’s control, just as he had expected.
