Chapter 10: The Epic Guild that Was Beaten
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After ending the video call with Annie, Occam lay for a while.
Then he sighed and entered the game.
With a flash of light, Occam appeared where he had logged off.
At this moment, there was a pack of wild wolves.
When he saw Occam suddenly appear, they rushed forward.
“Ding! You have received the attack of the Wild Wolves. You have triggered the passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After receiving the attack, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)”
“Ding! You have received the attack of the Wild Wolves. You have triggered the passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After receiving the attack, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)”
“Ding… triggered passive “Sacrifice” (Effect: Deals 20% damage to enemy units within a 20-meter radius every 5 seconds)!”
Two passive skills were triggered.
-134
-126
-400
…
The numbers representing damage floated above the wolves’ heads, and their HP rapidly decreased.
“Ding… you have killed “Wild Wolf (Normal)”. You have received 60 EXP. ‘”
“Ding… you have killed “Wild Wolf (Normal)”. You have received 60 EXP. ‘”
…
After taking care of these wolves, Occam hurried toward Milan Town.
On the way, he met players from time to time.
After seeing him, they started discussing.
“Look, isn’t that Linley?”
“Yes, it’s him. It looks like he just came online.”
“He stole the boss of the Epic Guild and still dares to show up. He’s really not afraid of death.”
“What nonsense are you spouting? Do you really believe the words of an Epic Guild? Others might not know, but the players of Milan Town all know that the boss was discovered by Linley. I guess the truth is the opposite. The Epic Guild was the one who snatched the boss but ended up failing.”
“Sigh, who knows?”
…
Of course, those with discerning eyes could roughly guess the truth.
However, someone still provided information to the Epic Guild.
After all, 5 gold coins was not a small amount. When converted into cash, it would be 3000 gold coins.
And the exchange rate was still increasing.
Many guilds were buying the gold coins because one could not top up and there were few gold coins.
Now, other than those large guilds with professional gold farming teams as backup who had a lot of gold coins, most of the solo players did not.
After the player told Occam his location, he only received one gold coin.
He braced himself and asked, “Didn’t we agree on five gold coins?”
The person who gave him the gold coins looked at him disdainfully.
“Our men got the message just as you arrived.”
“If you didn’t come early, you wouldn’t even have one gold coin.”
Hearing this, the player’s face was furious.
However, he did not dare to say anything and left.
At the same time, the players of the Epic Guild gathered and charged towards where Occam was.
A moment later, Occam looked at the players in front of him and sighed.
“Hurry up and make your move. I’m in a hurry to return to Milan Town.”
Upon hearing this, the leading Demon Hunter laughed coldly.
“Are you in a hurry to return to Milan Town?”
“Don’t worry, we’ll send you back for free!”
The moment he finished speaking, a few players activated their skills.
When the skill landed on Occam, passive “Defensive Counterattack” and “Sacrifice” were triggered.
The system notifications sounded continuously.
“Ding… You have been attacked by Player “Underworld King”. You have triggered passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After being attacked, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)
“Ding… You have been attacked by Player “Peter”. You have triggered passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After being attacked, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)
“Ding… triggered passive “Sacrifice” (Effect: Deals 20% damage to enemy units within a 20-meter radius every 5 seconds)!”

…
“Ding… you have killed a player!”
“Ding… you have killed a player!”
…
Seeing this scene, the Demon Hunter’s eyes flickered.
Indeed, it was similar to a Warrior’s passive skills “Defensive Counterattack” and “Sacrifice”.
However, the damage was much higher.
He saw many players from the Epic Guild behind him and smirked.
“Occam, stop struggling.”
“I know that you might have a God-grade equipment in your hand, but I believe that its effect cannot be maintained forever.”
“There are so many people here that I can slowly torture you to death.”
“If you know what’s good for you, hand over the God-grade equipment. I can consider you joining our Epic Guild.”
“Otherwise, we’ll kill you every time we see you!”
However, to his surprise, Occam glanced at him, his tone languid.
“If you want to attack, then hurry up and attack. Don’t waste my time.”
Hearing this, the Demon Hunter’s face turned green with anger.
Then, he instructed the players to attack at different levels.
When a player died, a player immediately charged forward.
Occam stood there feeling disinterested.
These people were like flies.
Even though they could not hurt him, they were extremely annoying.
Occam did not bother with them any longer.
He still had to meet up with Annie.
Hence, Occam headed straight for Milan.
Seeing this scene, the Demon Hunter’s face turned black like coal.
He did not expect after getting so many people and fighting for so long, Linley was still completely unharmed!
“Mage, control him. Don’t let him escape!”
“I don’t believe that we can’t kill him with so many people!”
The moment he finished speaking, the Mage in the crowd released his control skill.
The skill landed on Occam, freezing him instantly, preventing him from advancing.
Although he was not hurt, Occam had a headache.
Because he was controlled by other players.
Instantly, he had the motivation to level up.
At a certain level, one could obtain an immunity skill.
As he thought this, many skills landed on him.
However, at the same time…
“Ding… You have been attacked by Player “Side of the Truth”. You have triggered passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After being attacked, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)
“Ding… You have been attacked by Player “Black Wings”. You have triggered passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After being attacked, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)
“Ding… triggered passive “Sacrifice” (Effect: Deals 20% damage to enemy units within a 20-meter radius every 5 seconds)!”

…
“Ding… you have killed a player!”
“Ding… you have killed a player!”
…
After a while, fewer and fewer players came.
They had lost their motivation because of Occam.
“F*ck, he’s still using a hammer. After fighting for so long, he hasn’t lost any blood.”
“I’m not fighting anymore. If I have the time, I might as well go level up.”
“Exactly. I even suspect he’s the official account of the game.”
…
The Demon Hunter looked at Occam with an indignant expression.
“I don’t believe you’re that good.”
As he spoke, he released a skill towards Occam.
“Ding! You have been attacked by the player “Hunter”. You have triggered the passive “Defensive Counterattack” (Effect: After being attacked, you will reflect 200% of the damage to the enemy!)”
“Ding… triggered passive “Sacrifice” (Effect: Deals 20% damage to enemy units within a 20-meter radius every 5 seconds)!”

Just like before.
It was as if the Demon Hunter had used the HP Clearance Skill and returned to the city.
At the same time, a piece of equipment dropped to the ground.
The people that Demon Hunters brought over were all below Level 10.
Deaths below Level 10 would not cause the player to drop his equipment or level.
They were specially used to defeat Occam.
However, the Demon Hunter did not expect that he would end up losing his equipment.
Occam picked it up and looked at it.
“Undead Bow (Orange)”
Level: Lv 1
Power: +6
Critical Hit: +2%
Damage: +80 ~ 100
Occam raised an eyebrow.
Unexpectedly, it was a piece of orange equipment.
After putting it away, Occam hurried toward Milan.
A few minutes later, a girl saw Occam and leaned over.
“Hey, I know you. You are Linley, right?”
“Add me as a friend and tell me about the Epic Guild. I’ll help you make a statement.”
The girl was Annie.
