BXBX NOVEL Chapter 85 85 Melmond
"I was on the verge of winning, you were the one who stopped me" Max sneered.
"But I got 3000 coins, that\'s probably all the coins he had from killing newbies and low-level players, we are avenging their deaths," Alex said with a smile.
"If you guys think you can get away with killing me then you are badly mistaken" GoodGuy shouted.
"Really..." Alex smiled.
"Hey who\'s going to kill him, if you guys don\'t decide I\'ll burn him alive right now" Gabriel spoke.
"Max can have him, and after this, I think we should hunt more, you guys need to level up quickly so our group can become stronger," Alex said.
"You were the one who didn\'t want us to form a group but now you are glad we did" Max smirked.
"If PvP wasn\'t allowed we wouldn\'t be a group, but hunting other players is nice this way" Alex continued.
The player stood there calculating his chances of escape, the more the group talk among themselves the more they lose focus so he wanted to rush toward Rebecca and grab her.
Then use her to make his escape, they wouldn\'t be able to attack him if he grabs one of their teammates.
\'Seems like a plan, I just have to wait for the right time\' GoodGuy mumbled as he looked at both sides.
Alex and Max were standing on his right side, while Gabriel and Rebecca were on his left, if he charged toward Rebecca only Gabriel would be able to react fast enough and one shot wouldn\'t be enough to take him down.
"We need someone from the shooter class to complete our group, they are really good," Max said to Alex.
"I know they are good but they are bad at close combat, the one I fought was good at close combat but he was bad at aiming so he wouldn\'t be able to kill from afar," Alex said.
"Now..." GoodGuy mumbled and turned towards his left side.
But before he could take a step, dark ropes sprouted from the ground and held his legs and arms in place restricting him from moving forward.
[Dark Bind]
Gabriel had been watching the player in front of him carefully, he had been slowly moving towards the left side so Gabriel already placed his hands together so he could cast the spell and immediately he saw the player\'s movement he cast the spell.
"Finally, Max now you can finish him off," Alex said and Max dashed forward.
The player was shocked as Max swung into action, he tried to break out of the spell but he couldn\'t, Max had been talking the whole time but now he moved without mercy and dug his sword deep into his opponent\'s stomach.
[-60HP]
The sword pierced the stomach of the player and he screamed due to the pain he felt, in an instant the pain was gone and more than half of his HP was also gone, Max withdraw his sword and slashed the player\'s neck to deal the final blow.
[You killed player GoodGuy!]
[You have earned 70XP!]
[You received 20 blue coins!]
The player faded into pixel and Gabriel\'s dark ropes disintegrated.
"You had your kill, we are now equal" Gabriel spoke.
"Yeah, yeah...we should head to the city now, we got an additional 3000 coins from the guy I just killed," Max said.
"I got an additional 3000 coins, you did nothing, you couldn\'t even win the fight on your own," Alex laughed.
"So you were there when I was calling for you guys and you didn\'t answer, even you Rebecca" Max pouted.
"Me...when did you call for us, I didn\'t hear anything," Rebecca said.
"She and Gabriel were busy talking, I heard but I wanted to see if you would win on your own," Alex said as they exited the forest.
"I almost won but then you call out, you should have stayed hidden, I would have dealt with him on my own"
The four of them were now heading back to the city, many players were exiting the city but few were returning, most of the players had gone into the forest to gain XP and few of them were returning back.
The beasts in the forest were few but most of the low-level players were in the forest so most of the beasts had been killed, and now the players were hunting each other.
"50 Blue coins..." the guard spoke as soon as they approached the gates.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ "We have visited this city before, why are we still paying?" Max asked the guard.
The guard didn\'t say a word Instead he flashed Max a murderous glare that made him step back a little, he was afraid that the guard would attack him.
"100 Blue coins each..." the guard spoke in an irritated tone.
"Good, now you made him angry, we are very sorry," Alex said to the guard and handed him 400 Blue coins from the one he got from the player they just killed.
The guard moved out of the way and Alex who was in front stepped inside, the rest of them followed him and Max saw as the guard stared at him till he walked past the gate.
[Welcome to Melmond]
[Ruler- Lord Boreas]
"Lord Boreas...I wonder how..." Alex stopped immediately and removed his cloak, he opened his inventory and placed the cloak inside.
"Why the rush?" Max asked.
"Have you forgotten what I did the last time we were here, I was been chased by guards" Alex whispered.
"This is beautiful...wow, this game is amazing," Rebecca said as she looked around.
All the players that were present in the city were staring at the group as they walked by, all their eyes were on Alex as his information was hovering above his head.
[Reaper]
[Level 17]
The players were surprised at how someone who was coming into the city was already level 17, they knew there was no way he could have cheated which means he was really powerful.
The group was already familiar with the place so they headed straight for the potion shop, as they walked through the street they saw a large group of people gathered, NPCs and players alike.
"What is happening there" Max mumbled as he tried to look from afar.
"We should check it out, might be something important," Gabriel said and the group walked towards the scene.
"Max you check it out, we\'ll wait here," Alex said and Max frowned his face and walked forward.
He had no choice but to squeeze himself through the crowd so he could take a look at what was happening, Max successfully squeeze himself till he could see what they were all looking at.
A sign was placed there, Max looked at what was written there and was surprised, the Lord of the city wants to hold a show where fighters fight against each other for a prize money.
"A prize money...pfff what use would a prize money do when we already found those plants, no prize money would be able to..." Max\'s jaws dropped as he glanced at the prize money.
He closed his eyes and looked at it clearly but it still wasn\'t enough, this time he carefully counted the zero behind and was sure, the prize money was 1 million Blue coins for the winner, second place and third place also get a prize but it wasn\'t mentioned.
Immediately Max dragged himself through the crowd aggressively, he immediately pulled through and reached where his friends were.
"We are participating in a battle," Max said.
"Ohh, that\'s what this is about, is it like an arena battle?" Gabriel asked.
"1 million Blue coins... that\'s the prize for the winner" Max spoke.
"What!! 1 million...are you sure you saw it correctly!?" Alex shouted.
"Yes, we are surely going to participate and we are going to win, there are prizes for second and third place but it wasn\'t mentioned"
"When is the tournament starting?" Alex asked.
"In three days time," Max replied.
"We still have time, we should hurry to the potion shop," Alex said.
"Why are we hurrying? There is still three days left" Gabriel said.
"We should get stronger before that time, and buy good equipment"
"You are right, then we should give you all the plants so you can collect the reward"
