Along the way, they encountered about another ten more waves of stone spiders. They are all level 40+.
Wu Yan silently cursed the treasure hunting team for not cleaning up properlyā¦
They didnāt waste any time with the mob and dispatched them with the iron sand and missile salvo combo, not even giving the spiders any chance to get close enough to engage.
If not because the spiders sp.a.w.ned really quickly from the stones he might have blown them to bits before they could come out.
He didnāt do that for another good reason. Guess what, Hinagiku at level 49, tier 5 peak!
This is within their expectation, they slew legions of stone spiders, he didnāt know how the treasure hunting team fared against the legion of mobs but he knows their own kill count is absolutely innumerable!
The level 40 stone spiders form a significant portion of their kills. With such an amount, if it wasnāt because the gap between tier required a lot of experience points to bridge, Hinagiku might have turned into a tier 6, who knows. At her level , Wu Yan had to rely on negative feedback from his ability (Tl: electromaster) to get to tier 6.
He has also risen in levels as well, heās level 55 now.
Heās feeling intense emotions at this revelation.
Theyāre all the same group how come she gets to shoot some 10level+ and he has only risen by 5. f.u.c.king exp gap, he wanted to cry but didnāt have the tears for it.
Well, thatās just him though, if he is feeling like this how should railgun who didnāt increase in level at all feel? Jump off a tall building?
They traverse quite a distance and they noticed something, that is, thereās no more dead bodies on the ground!
āThere isnāt anymore bodiesā¦.ā
Different from her past self, she is somewhat accustomed now but the bodies still make her feel uncomfortable.
āNo more bodies, that means no one else died, and no further death means thereās no more stone spiders ahead right?ā (Tl: wait⦠the logic with this seems wrong "å°øä½ę²”äŗļ¼å°±ä»£č”Øę²”ęäŗŗę»äŗļ¼ę²”ęäŗŗę»ļ¼ä¹å°±ęÆčÆ“ļ¼åé¢å·²ē»ę²”ęē³čŗ«čäŗå§ļ¼". It might just be that the surviving ones didnāt rush at the spiders like r.e.t.a.r.d and is currently hiding or they could all be dead. Point being, no death does not = no more hostiles.)
Still as kind as ever, those two, he grinned at the two girls who are glad at the situation.
Just as he is going to say something, someone tugged at his shirt. Looking back he sees Ikaros pointing at a certain direction in front of him.
āMaster, there is a large amount of life forms ahead, preliminary calculations determine them to be of the same treasure hunting group!ā
Wu Yan & company flinched.
āLooks like we finally caught up with the groupā¦ā
said Hinagiku.
Ikaros continued.
āMaster, another large group of lifeforms has met up with the aforementioned groupā¦.ā
āAnother large group of lifeforms? Are they stone spiders, Ikaros?ā
āDetecting the same signature but their strength varies, their c.u.mulative fighting power is stronger than the waves we encountered before!ā
Wu Yan, Mikoto, and Hinagiku exchanged glances.
āSame signature, so to say they are stone spiders but what she said is that they are stronger than before. Something that is stronger that is stronger than the big sotne spiders we have seen before!ā
āYan, should we go and help?ā
Since they are fighting against stronger enemies, it would surely be easier to fight along the group, she also didnāt want to kill steal the stone spiders. Not to mention she hadnāt really contributed much from the beginning.
How could she have? The three basically wiped the legions off the face of Silvaria with their storm of swords and missiles. She could only rely on her kenjutsu to attack and thus she has been doing nothing but cla.s.sic exp leeching..
Some might be delighted to just leech and do nothing but sheās not feeling that way at the very least, quite the opposite, it feels like sheās an extra or something.
Mikoto looks pumped, higher level spiders? More exp for her. Itās not very fun watching Wu Yan and Hinagiku rising in level when she didnāt really moved much relatively.
In other words, she wants to level up as well.
He glanced in front and then at the girls before silently musing for a while and then speaking up.
āI think itās better if we donāt decide with haste. Letās go and check out the current situation before doing anything.ā
āSee first before making any move? Are we not going to intervene?ā
Said a slightly disappointed Mikoto with a sigh.
āThis isnāt very nice is it? I mean we did come here togetherā¦ā
Hinagikuās hesitating about his decision.
If they were to go there and be seen, just sitting on the sidelines is out of the question. If anything the group fighting there will drag them into the fray by any means necessary because their logic goes a little something like this: +1 player = +1 meatshield. Not that Wu Yan & company is afraid of them or anything, they do have quite the lineup by their side what with the peak tier 7 Mikoto and tier 8 Ikaros.
No big issue but really the minute details and complications are off putting overall. They might rely on their number to a.s.sert their opinion and impose it on them with malicious intentions such as setting traps for them for instance.
Itās obvious that within such a large group composed of many smaller units their unity and interest arenāt aligned very well. Therefore they are likely to screw each other over the first chance they get. h.e.l.l, they might even wish everybody but them die so they get to keep the treasure.
Under this kind of context if they were to waltz in, it is also foreseeable that they would get dragged into this s.h.i.t storm that is just waiting to happen.
āLike I said, we will be improvising based on the situationā¦ā
He concluded with a clap.
āBut what if they force us into fighting?ā
Mikoto lowered her head and crossed her arms in thought.
When he heard her, he laughed.
āWell, if itās like that then we just have to make sure they donāt know we are there wonāt we?ā
āNot noticing us?ā
The two girls are a bit bewildered at his plan.
āBut this tunnel is very plain in design, no doubt the same goes for whatever lays ahead, thereās nowhere to hide so how should we go about doing that? Suppose there are places to hide, the group in front has some tens of tier 7 with them, can we really avoid attention?ā
He stuck out his chest at their disbelief.
āMoi has a brilliant plan! Itās called the System. If itās here there is infinite flexibility in almost everything. I have prepared quite a few items before coming here and these items are going to be put to practical use!ā
āOh?ā
They are not strangers to the fantastical st System. The variety of gadgets that exist within the System could make them confused if they are to really go through the all menagerie of stuff. And so, their eyes brightened up when they heard him mentioning the usage of items.
Not dragging this out any longer he drew out a cloak from the s.p.a.ce ring and presented it in front of the two ladies.
āWhat is this?ā
The two asked curiously while examining the cloak with their hands.
āDonāt you two have System notification? Just take a closer look and you will see..ā
Waving the cloak around while letting the two girls examine it instead of him giving a verbal explanation.
The two glanced at him before opening the Systemās probing function in a cynical manner.
Invisible battle cloak (Tl: é¤å“ę篷): Can hide away the things concealed within it, presence and qi included; Item points 3000.
āSo youāre telling me this thing can really turn us invisible?ā
Said the amused Mikoto, sheās a little bit interested to see how it works.
āItās so interesting!ā
Chuckled Hinagiku, rendering him kinda speechless.
d.a.m.n, Kaichou-sama, this kind of thing can only get you interested?ā¦
