T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

Passing by the NPC camp, I politely asked who among them was the strongest fighter, then went up to hug them with a smile, and then swung my sword.

Murder, massacre of the village, arson—all done in one swift motion.

With the Demon Fox Village Chief as an example, he had no room for error and didn't trust anyone's information.

He faced only one problem: how to kill all moving individuals except the guide more efficiently and quickly.

What services do you need?

Another ordinary guide.

Compared to the previous game, their luck in this regard was noticeably better.

Three hours into the competition, the score at the virtual-real boundary was 16000 points, which was not particularly ideal. With a normal team of 7 players, the points earned were not enough to distribute among the players.

But Jiang Heyi was all alone.

"Enhance the skills [Desperate Stand], [Draw Sword Slash], and [Cross Slash]."

"Enhance the skills [Blessing of the Wind] and [Fireball]".

First, Jiang Heyi upgraded his usual physical and magical skills at the experience level. Then, he began to purchase two expensive spells, [Magic Shaping] and [Magic Torrent].

After completing the upgrade, 2900 points remained out of the original 16000.

This is the advantage of acting alone: ​​when making large-scale purchases, the increase in dynamic prices is far less than when purchasing in a group.

In the early stages, spending 1 points was enough to fully equip Jiang Heyi.

Players watching the live stream and observing their spending points also noticed this.

Because Jiang Heyi acted alone, the price given by the guide was significantly lower than the fluctuation value of the time line.

In the early stages, this price difference was quite substantial.

This setting is clearly an official balancing mechanism, giving guilds that encounter unexpected setbacks at the start but possess considerable strength a chance to make a comeback.

Since no one had experienced such a cataclysmic event before, no one noticed, and with a single player participating, many items could be so cheap.

Aside from the fact that the value of the resurrection potion continues to increase over time, the price of the potion Jiang Heyi bought was the same as it was two hours ago.

For the same shield potion, Jiang Heyi only needs 35, while other guilds need 70.

No longer do players spam phrases like "It's time to revive our teammates."

Everyone could see that Jiang Heyi was determined to solo the game; he wouldn't stop until the 12-hour golden development period was over.

Jiang Heyi had already noticed the magical fluctuations coming from afar. He put the robe he had taken off the NPC over his [Trialist] set, hid the short sword under the robe, and took out the staff that he had prepared in his backpack with his left hand.

After doing all this, a full 7-person guild will appear.

The semi-support trend started by the 【Funny Tree】 guild has influenced many guilds. This guild called 【Pigeon Cage】 also does not set up information slots, but instead uses a sharpshooter as a substitute, with the rest being 3 berserkers and 3 elementals.

This is also the lineup strategy adopted by many guilds that aim to narrow down the competition from 58 to 2.

Extract the best-performing classes since the start of the guild war and combine them based on their compatibility.

Jiang Heyi was the only one making a purchase in front of the guide, which clearly puzzled the members of the [Pigeon Cage] guild.

"Lone wolf?"

As he was pondering, a dazzling blue light shot out from Jiang Heyi's staff.

A torrent of magic, guided by the staff, surged forward.

The thick stream of magic was like a ship-slaying sword. Jiang Heyi gripped his staff so tightly that the veins bulged as he resisted the powerful recoil and swung it fiercely.

The massive sword, approximately 20 meters long, arrived in front of the seven people in the "Pigeon Cage" in the blink of an eye.

The sudden turn of events caught one of them off guard. He was cut in half at the waist by the "ship-slaying sword" and vanished into nothingness before he could even utter a last word.

"Magic Torrent, how come its attack range is so long, and its power is...? It's already upgraded its skill at this point?"

The elemental mage in the Pigeon Cage recognized the magic and looked on incredulously.

The advantages and disadvantages of the Magic Torrent are obvious. It is extremely powerful, but it also consumes a great deal of magic power. If it is not controlled, it is common for magic power to run out.

It is not something that ordinary magicians can use casually; it is a magic that requires precise timing in its application.

"What are you standing there for? He's already exhausted all his magic!"

Realizing what was happening, the entire [Pigeon Cage] guild, except for the archer who was still on guard against possible enemies lurking around, launched an attack.

For mage classes, using this spell is equivalent to forcibly controlling themselves; whoever uses it will find themselves in the awkward situation of running out of mana.

This is the disastrous consequence of using skills without considering the circumstances...

A cold glint flashed, and the leading berserker suffered the same death as Zhong Zemo.

The incredibly fast blade sliced ​​him in two, and the protective shield the elemental mage had cast for him failed to stop it.

The sword draw slash, the fastest basic skill for martial artists, has been enhanced to a new level in both power and speed.

The response from the "pigeon cage" was already quite competent, but Jiang Heyi's development was beyond their imagination.

At this moment, all six pieces of equipment on Jiang Heyi's body had been blessed, with three pieces granting him the ability to move with the wind and three pieces granting him the ability to burn his boats.

All beneficial magic has been enhanced.

[Pigeon Cage] At this point, only one person has completed the blessing of all equipment.

At the cost of sacrificing six people, Jiang Heyi gained development that transcended the timeline.

"Despicable! He's not an elemental mage, he's a magic warrior!"

Jiang Heyi deliberately put on a long robe and took out a staff in order to confuse the enemy.

Realizing this was too late. Instead of being unable to move due to depleted magic, Jiang Heyi advanced, quickly licking up the blessed equipment of the dead. Relying on the protection of his swift movements, he left a trail of afterimages in the sight of everyone in the pigeon cage.

The previous two attacks had allowed Jiang Heyi to assess his current combat strength, and he quickly shifted from a conservative to an aggressive stance, aiming his sword at the archer who was still keeping watch in the distance.

The archer was prepared; his finger was already on the bow and arrow.

The arrow pierced the air, but it was too late. The archer, his body weakened, swayed a few times before collapsing from the tree.

His neck was like a fountain, and his remaining consciousness rapidly dissipated from his body.

In less than half a minute, three people were killed.

7200 points fell into Jiang Heyi's pocket. After such a huge loss, someone immediately came to make up for it. How delicious!

The successful attack was largely due to the thorough preparations made before the battle.

A long robe and a spell set the stage for a perfectly successful sneak attack.

With the hopes of the entire guild on his shoulders, Jiang Heyi dared not take too many risks. He successfully swallowed 7200 points to recover some health, and he was satisfied.

Taking advantage of the moment when the members of the [Pigeon Cage] guild were huddled together on guard, he quickly rummaged through the archer's backpack and stole the food, as well as a helmet that had already been blessed and bound.

"Add the Resurrection Set to your freebies!"

We need to get our gear ready now so that when the other guild members are resurrected, we can be fully armed upon landing.

Luring the enemy, defeating them, and making a clean escape – the entire process was executed flawlessly, leaving players thoroughly entertained.

Niu Dongdong couldn't help but shout excitedly, "You know what, you really have to believe it, isn't there some truth to this solo play?"

"His strategy of 'I'm the only one who gets ahead' will definitely ensure that his personal development is ahead of the team's development. He has a lot of room to grow in the first 12 hours."

Since no one had ever played like this before, no one could have imagined that someone could achieve full blessing on all their equipment and have all their skills and magic enhanced by the third hour of the match.

Jiang Heyi possesses an absolute information advantage.

When a player sees a lone wolf and confirms that no one is around, even the most cautious person will inevitably relax.

If Jiang Heyi makes another attempt to escape, the other players will instinctively follow suit.

Jiang Heyi even went so far as to create a set of elemental mage stereotype outfits—since elemental mages are a popular class in competitions, players will subconsciously associate the combination of robes and staffs with them.

All you need to do next is find a time to actively use a spell like [Magic Torrent], which has obvious advantages and disadvantages... Who could resist getting hooked?

Amidst the audience's exclamations of "Wow~~~~", Jiang Heyi, moving at full speed, encountered a guild with a full complement of 7 members in the wild.

It's the same old routine: put on a robe and take out a staff.

Relying on his magical perception, he accurately touched the magical energy emanating from the other party.

After startling them, he immediately pretended to know nothing and walked forward. Finally, he acted like a frightened bird that had sensed danger and turned to run away.

This acting deserves full marks from the audience.

Sure enough, someone immediately got caught up in the performance.

A shadow assassin tracked down the lone wolf and had just finished reporting the information to his teammates when the despicable Jiang Heyi launched a surprise attack.

The enhanced [Magic Torrent] has a significantly increased attack range, and its power is far beyond what a single shield potion and elemental shield can withstand.

Due to the misjudgment, the Shadowman melted on the spot.

4200 points have been credited to your account.

Jiang He was overjoyed. What a fat Shadow Stalker! It's so great that you came to deliver it in person!

Before leaving, he made sure to thank the people chasing after him.

They ran away as soon as they got what they wanted, without lingering for a moment.

He has the power to decide when to fight and when to run.

I never expected things to develop in this way.

Originally, it was thought that the boundary between reality and illusion, where the team was wiped out twice in a row, was unlikely to rise again. But now, it seems like a blessing in disguise.

Jiang Heyi is racing against time, and his personal growth will gradually fall behind that of the team over time.

At this moment, he still has the power to decide whether to fight or stay, but once other guilds develop, his freedom to come and go will be questionable.

Jiang Heyi judged that once the critical point of 8 hours was reached, with the guilds having completed their combat power conversion and cooperating with each other, his sneaky tactics would be difficult to take effect.

Unless, of course, we can find the two artisan guides who can raise the upper limit of equipment capabilities, and the sage-type guides who can further enhance the power of magic and skills.

It's so dramatic. With a disastrous start and most people not optimistic about the game, Jiang Heyi actually managed to figure out a completely new strategy.

Players call it the "Sacrifice Style".

To do this, you must sacrifice a teammate at the start of the game, allowing the player with the strongest individual skill to benefit from the balancing mechanism of the guide service price.

It relies on low dynamic prices to achieve development that transcends timelines.

In this gameplay, PVE is just an embellishment.

Once the system is established, the right approach is to leverage early advantages and exploit other guilds.

This is a gameplay style that only has visual elements in the early stages, posing a huge challenge to the player's personal skills, timing, and situational judgment.

"The third unlucky guild is coming!"

After glancing at the map, the players looked excited, as if they had found something fun.

This competition is so interesting! An annoying fly appeared on the guild war stage, grabbing points and then leaving. It was disgusting, but also made for a great show.

Meanwhile, in the ongoing poll, the number of people who believe Jiang Heyi can lead the team to the next round is quietly increasing.

Ready to eat right out of the can, and Huangliang Yimeng, who had already led his team to the next round, fell into deep thought.

This strategy is a bit risky, but... it seems like they can pull it off?

Chapter 92 One Against Seven

With no teammates to worry about and always in control, Jiang Heyi, relying on the advantages of his equipment and skills brought by lifesteal, possesses overwhelming combat power against most monsters.

This also accelerated his efficiency in cutting grass and scoring points in the wild.

However, his course of action was somewhat strange.

Given the need to take the initiative, he should have continued towards the center of the map, but for some reason, he suddenly turned back.

Seeing Jiang Heyi rush back to the starting point of the game, where six players had died at the boundary between the virtual and real worlds, the players looked at each other in bewilderment.

Niu Dongdong was stunned: "He wouldn't... It doesn't make sense. At this stage, he can't beat the anti-magic swordsman, right? If you don't court death, you won't die."

Even with the ready-to-eat can, it's still unclear what Jiang Heyi is trying to do.

As an observer, he could see very clearly that the combat power displayed by the anti-magic swordsman meant that unless all seven of them performed exceptionally well at the beginning of the battle and happened to possess class magic that perfectly countered his actions, their chances of winning were extremely slim.

He conceded defeat on behalf of the chosen one of Khorne.
