Chapter 52: Battle against Gao Yingjie, Ying Wushuang’s tactics
Holy City
Luoyue Square
“We were asked to come in the afternoon, but we didn’t come by the evening.”
"What kind of bad leader is this!"
Sima Xian touched his bald head and complained dissatisfiedly.
"snort!"
"I heard that our team leader came from the army. Is the army so lazy?"
"Don't you have any sense of time?"
Chen Ying'er, who was standing next to Sima Xian, snorted and crossed her arms.
The members of the God's Realm Demon Hunting Group received a notice in the afternoon, telling them to wait for their leader here in Luoyue Square.
However, they have been waiting here for three hours and still the leader is nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped down from the sky.
"I heard all the bad things about the team leader behind his back."
"Leader?"
When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads to look.
A man appeared in front of everyone.
The man has a tall and straight posture, and his white hair is slightly messy, but he exudes an unruly demeanor.
His eyes are deep and firm, as if he can see into people's hearts, and the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, giving people a feeling of chicness.
The man is wearing a knight's armor. The armor is engraved with complex patterns. After years of baptism, it still shines with the luster of metal.
The collar and cuffs are decorated with lion patterns, which look majestic and noble.
Outside the tight black shirt, there is a large cloak fluttering in the wind. The badge on the cloak symbolizes his honor, and the heavy texture coincides with his temperament.
"Rookies, let me introduce myself first. My name is Gao Yingjie, and I am your team leader."
"Listen up, the newly formed demon hunting group will have a three-month team competition."
"You will join the army, receive military missions as soldiers, and fight against the demons to gain merit points."
"After the team competition, the demon hunting group with the highest merit will be ranked first and receive generous rewards from the alliance."
"However, it is also possible that this leader is only temporary."
"Because if you don't meet my standards, your newly formed demon hunting group will be disbanded!"
"Otherwise, going to the battlefield will be equivalent to death!"
Gao Yingjie stood with his hands behind his back and swept over Ying Wushuang and the others one by one, showing off his domineering attitude.
"ah?"
"What are your standards?"
Sima Xian became anxious upon hearing this, and finally joined the demon hunting group.
Wouldn't it be a pity if it were to be disbanded?
"My standards are very simple, come on, let's have a fight."
With that said, Gao Yingjie took off his cloak and threw it aside.
"Ah, no?"
Chen Ying'er's expression changed immediately when she heard that Gao Yingjie was going to fight with them.
"Leader, I would like to ask you, what level are you at now?"
Gao Yingjie glanced at Chen Ying'er and replied proudly: "Seventh level."
When Chen Ying'er heard this, she suddenly looked shocked.
"Seventh level?"
"Let us, a group of fourth- and fifth-level people, defeat you at the seventh level?"
"Leader, this joke is not funny at all."
"Yes, Captain Gao, this is not fair. How can we beat you?"
Li Xin also stood up and spoke.
"I didn't tell you to defeat me. You just need to hold on for ten minutes, and I will win."
"If you win, as a meeting gift, I will reward you with two thousand merit points."
"If we persist for less than ten minutes, the demon hunting group will be disbanded on the spot." Gao Yingjie's words surprised Ying Wushuang.
He remembered that the original work did contain a section about challenging Gao Yingjie.
However, in the original work, they only need to touch him ten times to pass the level, and each time they touch him, they will be rewarded with two hundred merit points.
But now, the way of fighting has changed.
It was more difficult to hold on to Gao Yingjie for ten minutes than to touch Gao Yingjie ten times.
Because for a seventh-level mithril pedestal knight, the combat power that he can exert at full strength is definitely close to that of the eighth level.
Therefore, letting these little shrimps with no cooperation to challenge the eighth-level knights is tantamount to courting death.
However, the condition given by Gao Yingjie was that he only had to persist for ten minutes.
In other words, as long as one of the six of them has not fallen down after ten minutes, they will win.
"By the way, I want to ask, what exactly is this meritorious service value?"
"Is it important?"
At this time, Sima Xian scratched his head and asked.
"Of course merit points are important. Only merit points can be exchanged for higher-level equipment in the alliance."
Sheng Yuyue glanced at Sima Xian and continued to explain: "There are generally two ways to obtain merit points. One is to kill demons, and the other is to receive tasks in the task tower."
"Then how much merit can you get by killing a demon?"
Wang Yuanyuan took over the conversation and continued to ask.
"Killing a fifth-level demon only costs ten merit points."
Sheng Yuyue responded.
"Huh? It's only ten o'clock?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Comparing Gao Yingjie's two thousand points of merit just now, it was simply too little.
If they can win, not only will they not have to disband the demon hunting group, but they will also get two thousand merit points.
At this thought, everyone's eyes immediately lit up.
"Rookies, are you ready? I'm going to start."
Gao Yingjie's eyes were focused, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
"Leader Gao, I am Ying Wushuang, the leader of the No. 1 sergeant-level demon hunting group. Before the battle begins, I would like to delay another three minutes. We need to discuss tactics."
Ying Wushuang is not in a hurry to fight with him. If he wants to win this battle, it will not be easy to win without careful discussion.
"Oh, do you still have tactics?"
Gao Yingjie sneered as if he heard some joke, "Okay, then I will wait for you for three more minutes. In three minutes, the battle will begin!"
As a result, everyone from the God's Domain Demon Hunting Group immediately gathered together.
Three minutes later
“Time’s up!”
Gao Yingjie took out a pocket watch from his arms and started timing.
"You only have ten minutes, I hope you still have someone standing here in ten minutes."
"The battle begins!"
After hearing Gao Yingjie's words, everyone in the God's Domain Demon Hunting Group immediately became like birds and beasts and dispersed in all directions.
Ying Wushuang's tactics are very simple. Since he only needs to stay in Gao Yingjie's hands for ten minutes, delaying tactics is the best way.
"Heh, it seems this is what you call tactics."
Gao Yingjie found it quite interesting, and the next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already behind Chen Yinger.
"Leaving you alone as a summoner is one of the biggest mistakes your group leader made."
Chen Ying'er was startled and quickly took out the pink umbrella to resist.
"Bang!"
Gao Yingjie slashed at Chen Ying'er with his sword, and came into close contact with Fen Xian.
