Chapter 1092: "Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment President" (Third Update)
The Alliance and Horde players who had been fighting fiercely were all stunned, stopping their battle just to watch these two show off.
Many Horde players suddenly realized, "Isn't this those two Alliance players with the ridiculously long names?!"
A male Human Mage and a female Night Elf Hunter, both with names a full twenty-two characters long, and their guild was "Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment World of Warcraft Development Team"!
Enemies meeting face to face, eyes blazing with hatred. Several Horde squads immediately prepared to charge over and intercept the Elf Hunter.
The Alliance players saw this and thought, "How can we let that happen?" They rushed forward in a crowd to hold back the Horde.
The Elf Hunter kept kiting Helcular, and soon Helcular's health dropped below half. Meanwhile, the endless stream of small skeletons were all being pulled away by the Mage alone and quickly cleared out.
Only then did many people notice that this Mage's movement was also incredibly sharp!
Although these small skeletons were low-level, there were a lot of them. Even for a Mage, a squishy class, getting surrounded by so many skeletons would mean death by beating, let alone a Warrior.
Yet this Mage's skill was just as sharp as the Hunter's. Not only did he use standard moves like Frost Nova, Blast Wave, and Blizzard, but he could also, like the Hunter, precisely maintain distance from the skeletons while continuously using Arcane Explosion, an area-of-effect spell, to clear them out!
Occasionally, a few skeletons would get close and land attacks, but he dodged them all with his agile movements, taking very little damage.
Alliance morale instantly soared. Who would have thought that such a powerful elite monster and a horde of skeletons could be effortlessly taken down by two top-tier players?
Although it looked like Helcular was about to be killed, the Horde players weren't worried at all.
Because this quest was available to everyone!
The group that had been sent back to Tarren Mill to pick up the quest was already digging through the Yeti cave. Soon, they would all have Helcular's Charged Wand. Then they could summon Helcular one after another. Even if this Helcular was taken down, so what?
With a mournful howl, Helcular fell. The ghostly flames in the eyes of the remaining skeletons all extinguished, and they clattered to the ground, turning into piles of bones.
The Alliance players all cheered with joy!
The Horde players weren't discouraged. "Quick! Anyone with Helcular's Rod, get over there! We'll cover you! Summon him again!"
The Alliance players certainly couldn't let them just waltz over. They fought desperately to hold the graveyard.
The two sides fought fiercely, the Horde gritting their teeth and pushing forward. Finally, one lucky player broke through the Alliance's defense and reached Helcular's grave.
But when he tried to use the wand to revive Helcular, he found the grave silent. Nothing happened.
"Damn! This quest has a cooldown!"
This Horde player was speechless. So you couldn't summon him infinitely...
Thinking about it, it made sense that you couldn't summon him infinitely. Otherwise, the Alliance wouldn't stand a chance...
Before he could try again, the respawned Alliance players quickly arrived, swarmed him, and killed him back to the graveyard.
Although the Alliance players didn't know what had happened, they were all very relieved that Helcular hadn't been summoned again. Otherwise, things would have been really tough.
The two sides resumed their tug-of-war. Then a Horde player suddenly noticed, "Hey... where did those two strong Alliance players go?"
Everyone looked around. Sure enough, the Mage and Hunter were gone!
Those two had stirred up the hatred between Alliance and Horde, soloed Helcular, showed off in front of hundreds of players, and then just slipped away?
What the...
The Horde wanted to stop fighting and chase those two players, but the Alliance wouldn't allow it!
If they pulled back now, this Alliance group would definitely get cocky and start hunting down Horde lowbies and solo players everywhere. That was absolutely unacceptable!
With no other choice, the Horde players gritted their teeth and continued the heated battle with the Alliance outside Southshore. But they definitely weren't going to swallow this insult.
Many people said in their guild chat, "Everyone, keep an eye out for the guild 'Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment World of Warcraft Development Team.' Kill any Alliance from that guild on sight! And those two with the long names, a Mage and a Hunter, both with great skills. If you see those two, don't engage alone. Report their coordinates, and we'll go after them together!"
After another ten minutes of fighting, a Horde player suddenly said in guild chat, "I found an Alliance member from the 'Development Team' guild. And his name is 'Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment President'! He's even the guild master!"
The other guild members immediately perked up. "Guild master?! Report his coordinates! Let's go kill him! Where is he?!"
The Horde player said, "He's in Silverpine Forest now, but he's a pretty high level. Lowbies might not be able to take him."
The Horde players got excited. "Quick! Everyone run to the Undercity! Let's ambush him! All Horde in Silverpine Forest, gather up! Everyone, notify the other guild masters to coordinate!"
The leaders of several major guilds discussed it and quickly reached an agreement.
Camp the corpse!
There was no helping it. That Mage and Hunter had maxed out the hatred. Now, everyone killed any Alliance from the "Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment World of Warcraft Development Team" guild on sight, without a second word. And if they ran into the guild master himself, he definitely deserved special treatment!
Several high-level Horde players from the Undercity quickly gathered, formed three or four parties, and rushed over to surround this poor Paladin.
The three parties even divided the work: some camped the corpse, some blocked the graveyard. Their positions were spread out so that no matter where the Paladin respawned, the Horde would immediately chase him down and beat him up.
The Horde laughed smugly. "Let's see you act tough now! We'll camp you until you log off!"
...
In the "Thunder Joy Interactive Entertainment World of Warcraft Development Team" guild channel.
Qian Kun was completely baffled. "Boss, when you asked me to take this name and nominated me as guild master, I had a vague feeling there was a conspiracy. Now, I haven't done anything, and three Horde parties are corpse-camping me. What the hell is going on? Explain it to me!"
Chen Mo chuckled. "Don't worry. You're single-handedly wasting the time of three Horde parties, making an outstanding contribution to the game's time-based revenue model. It's fine. Just keep holding them off. I'll reimburse you for the game time later."
Qian Kun said, "Boss, I may not have read much, but I do know the difference between a game card and a monthly subscription... This account of mine is on a monthly subscription!"
Chen Mo chuckled again. "That's not important."
Qian Kun protested, "How is it not important?! We agreed to farm Scarlet Monastery together! Now you're all at the dungeon entrance, and I'm still being corpse-camped by the Horde in Silverpine Forest! Aren't you going to organize some people to rescue me?"
Chen Mo said, "It's fine. We've got a full party. We're going in now."
Qian Kun: "???"
He opened the guild member list and saw that, sure enough, Chen Mo's Mage had already formed a five-man party and entered the Scarlet Monastery instance.
Qian Kun immediately came to a very reasonable conclusion. "Damn it, Boss, you planned this all along, didn't you! You knew I'd never make it to the Scarlet Monastery entrance without getting surrounded by the Horde, so you deliberately found other people in advance?!"
Chen Mo immediately denied it three times. "No. That's not true. Don't talk nonsense. Anyway, we're farming the dungeon now. You keep holding off the Horde. We support you in spirit!"
Qian Kun: "...MMP."
