If Chen Mo was here, he would be able to recognize these people as the ones who killed the Slime King in the video he saw on the forum.
"That's weird. Slime King was actually killed," the leader of the group said as he looked at the empty field.
His in-game name was Mu Sen, and he was a Mage. He was the leader of this six-man team.
"Could it be that Leng Xiaoliu's group beat us to it?" Qian Yan went forward to take a closer look.
She was the team's Priest, a quiet 21 or 22 year old female player. She, Mu Sen, and the other four people all came from a small high-end studio in reality.
Before "Founding Era" had started beta testing, they had specialized in games that were played by the rich. They had specialized in working for the rich. When news of the Founding Era game's beta testing had spread, Mu Sen and the others had unhesitatingly sold all the other game accounts and resources they had on hand. The entire studio had specialized in Founding Era games.
To these gamers, holographic virtual games were an unattainable fantasy. Now that it had appeared, how could they miss it? However, the more important reason was that Qian Yan, Mu Sen, and the others knew that they could definitely make a lot of money by entering this game.
"No, I know that Leng Xiaoliu's group is in another novice village today." Mu Sen shook his head.
"Leng Xiaoliu … Hmph, it's a pity that the previous mission failed. In the end, he still got his way. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to kill the boss now!" The player in the team called Tie Tou snorted angrily.
Tie Tou had a sturdy build and a straightforward personality. In all the games, he had always chosen the bold and unrestrained Warrior profession.
"It's all my fault. If I had successfully ambushed Leng Xiaoliu, they wouldn't have been able to complete that mission." The Assassin in the team lowered his head in shame.
"Xiaoliu, don't take this to heart. You didn't do anything wrong. If Leng Xiaoliu was so easy to ambush, he wouldn't have competed with us for three years without a winner." Mu Sen patted Assassin Xiaoliu's shoulder.
Before the holographic virtual network appeared, there were countless gaming studios in the Huaxia region. There were also many high-end studios like Mu Sen and the others. Leng Xiaoliu's gaming studio was one of them.
Originally, everyone wanted to make money peacefully and do their own business. How much they could earn depended on their own abilities. However, Leng Xiaoliu had a huge appetite and was sinister. He would use all sorts of sinister methods to attack his competitors. Mu Sen and the others did not know Leng Xiaoliu's character at first, so they were tricked twice..........
Since then, the enmity between him and Leng Xiaoliu was naturally formed. The two of them had been fighting openly and secretly for the past three years. Unfortunately, no one could do anything to the other.
This time, Leng Xiaoliu, like Mu Sen and the rest, chose the Genesis game.
Indeed, enemies were bound to meet. A few days ago, members of the two workshops simultaneously appeared in one of the three main cities, the City of Shadows. When they went out to grind at night, they encountered the same NPC and received the same rare mission.
In the mission, Mu Sen and the others obtained a greater advantage. Completing the mission was already a done deal. Mu Sen naturally wanted to stop Leng Xiaoliu's mission, but he failed in the end.
The teams led by the two finally completed the rare mission. The team leaders each received a "Leader's Badge."
Mu Sen and Leng Xiaoliu knew that they had struck it big when they received the Leader's Badge!
The Leader's Badge could be used to summon teammates once a day. As long as the teammates agreed, the other five teammates who participated in the mission could be directly teleported to their side!
Both of them thought of the BOSS in the Beginner's Village. At the current stage, Level 10 blue and green equipment could be sold for a good price. If a purple equipment could be dropped, it would be worth more than a few business deals in the past!
They had entered the game to earn money. Now that they might be able to earn a huge sum of money, Mu Sen and Leng Xiaoliu committed suicide without hesitation.
The Leader's Badge was a special equipment that was bound to the character. As it did not have any attribute bonuses and level restrictions, as long as the teammates' in-game names were not changed, they could be summoned to their side even if they were in the Beginner's Village. Of course, the teammates also had to kill themselves and respawn in the Beginner's Village. Otherwise, with the uniqueness of the Beginner's Village, the Leader's Badge would not work.
Mu Sen and Leng Xiaoliu began to hunt the Slime King in the Beginner's Village. He did not expect that there would be a third team that had the ability to kill the BOSS.
"If it's not Leng Xiaoliu, then who killed the BOSS?" Qian Yan frowned.
"Spread out and investigate," Mu Sen said to the others. He also wanted to know.
The few of them nodded and went off in different directions.
After half an hour, the six of them reunited.
"I don't have any valuable information here. No one has seen a team that can kill the BOSS."
"Same here."
"Same here."
Mu Sen and the others shook their heads. They did not find anything.
"I do have a piece of news here. I asked a player and he said that he saw a Hunter player walking towards the Slime King. He thought that the Hunter player had good equipment and wanted to team up with him to kill the BOSS. However, the Hunter was too fast and he could not catch up. Then, he realized that he had unknowingly chased into the BOSS's alert range in the dark. He broke out in cold sweat, but the BOSS did not come out to kill him. He curiously went to the BOSS's location to take a look, but he realized that the Slime King had disappeared," Qian Yan muttered and told him the news she heard.
"You're saying that the Hunter player killed the Slime King Boss all by himself?
And in such a short time? "Mu Sen's calm gaze revealed a hint of shock.
"Then, the BOSS was already killed before the Hunter came, right?" Ironhead could not help but ask.
However, Qian Yan shook her head, "No.
Before the sky turned dark, the player could still see the BOSS from afar. The Hunter only came after the sky turned dark. There was only a difference of a few minutes. After the Hunter came, the BOSS was gone. "
A single player killed the Slime King alone?
Was there really such a freak in the game?
… …
Chen Mo did not know that the matter of him soloing the BOSS was finally discovered by others.
After committing suicide again, Chen Mo rose to level 10 and prepared to kill the Variant Slime King again.
He hired the players and was about to bring them to dig a hole. However, he unexpectedly saw a team killing the Slime King.
This team's equipment was not bad. At least they were wearing green equipment. The teamwork of the team members was also very good. They were all experts.
Their appearance was different from what he saw on the forum. It was the other team of the two.
After Chen Mo came out of the Goblin Valley, he first went to the Slime Plains to confirm the existence of the BOSS. He did not expect that during the time he was leveling up, this team that had the ability to kill the BOSS would suddenly appear.
Chen Mo brought the hired players. Before they even got close, the team that was killing the Slime King discovered Chen Mo's group.
The female Mage in the middle glanced at Chen Mo's group from afar. She arrogantly shouted, "If you want to die, then scram. Don't hinder us from killing the BOSS!"
