Chapter 12: War With Godenal Guild Part 3
"What is it, Agatha?"
"I posted the topic under an anonymous name, so they don't know me yet. Yes, it will be easy to find me, but I want to keep myself hidden as long as possible.
Is there any way to hide my face and your face?"
"There is plenty of equipment which does this job. But I don't have any for now."
I looked at the huge pile of equipment which we discarded.
In this huge pile, there must be one or two equipment which can mask one's features. I said quickly:
"Let's then search for this equipment. We should find a couple of them that suited our needs."
In a few minutes, we finished checking this equipment. As I guessed, we found over ten pieces of equipment that could change player features. Shin suggested using one specifically.
Two were identical caps, one was a ring and the last one was a lovely cute little diamond earring. I chose without doubt that earring which I fell in love with. Shin took the cap and the ring.
All these equipment were trash lvl3 equipment. The cap changed the player's looks to be replaced by a dark cloud over one's face. My earring and Shin ring effects were similar.
Both shielded any scouting skills from investigating our info. The only negative point of both of them was that they couldn't stop skills higher than basic grades.
They also couldn't shield us from players who were 5 levels higher than us. That wasn't a problem for us for now. All players now had only basic grade skills and it would take a long time till they could get higher grade skills or upgrade their current ones.
As for the current players' level, I couldn't say for sure but it was nearly impossible to have players higher than our level by 5. For now, we were safe. The next step was to enter that village through the front door.
The more dramatic our entrance would be, the more effective it would impact those who were watching us. I planned for a grand final! We hid these equipments again and then I looked at shin and explained:
"The next step would be dangerous for you and me. Although they are only 50 players, I guess they are their highest level players. This battle will be tough so I'' sum the plan in two words: Be quick!
In five seconds either we die and lose or we kill them all and we live."
Shin showed a rare confident smile replying:
"Don't be this worry. It's them who should be wary of us.
We can use mixed tactics without previous planning. I got used to your fighting style, so be more optimistic."
I replied mumbling:
"I was only realistic, that's all."
"Life isn't only about the worst possible scenario you know,"
I mumbled again :
"That's your only opinion."
He laughed happily then said:
"Let's go then?"
"Don't you want to hear my plan?"
"I just told you that I got your style. You preserved the last two skills for the finale, right?"
I replied only with a smile. This move of this swordsman was cool. We ran through the jungle-like two warlords without any fear for anyone. We met many monsters during this long fight but we didn't bother killing them.
Although many of them were Elites that I nearly drooled on, it wasn't the time for doing something like that. It took us nearly half an hour to get out of these woods.
When we exited the jungle, we noticed a large number of players were watching from everywhere. They kept the space around the village gate and those last 50 standing players of Godenal Guild.
Shin looked at me and I noticed his face changed color. I asked in worry:
"What happened to you?"
"You see those 50 players out there? I know four of them."
"Whose four?"
When I thought about his sudden worry and his words about those four, I concluded.
"Those four are this dangerous?"
"Yes. One of them is at the front. He is a defender class called knight. He can play as a tank and also can attack. His DPS is something you can't ignore. Although he is limited by his lower level, his experience is vast. He is a problem for us."
I felt nervous just from his words of this player only. He continued ignoring my anxiety:
"The second one is behind him. He is a very excellent swordsman."
"Is he better than you?"
"We are nearly at the same level. You can consider him as my rival."
"What about the other two?"
"One of them is next to this swordsman. He is a brilliant strategist. There is a secret class in the later stages of the game where you can be a strategist. He will be the hardest of the four."
"And the fourth one?"
"He is standing there back behind. He is a magician. I clashed with him in this game once. He has a cc skill, so he is very dangerous too."
"What is CC skill?"
"CC means Crowd Control. His skill can mute us and prevent us from using our skills. His skill time is 2 seconds."
"That's pretty dangerous."
"Sure. That's why I think your strategy won't work here."
He was right. If we headed straight like I imagined, then we would be dead. These four were a nightmare.
But knowing about them before the war was a lucky incident indeed. This info wasn't enough for me.
"Can you check all of them to see if there are any hidden tigers there?
"I double-checked. The rest are just newbies like you. They are only there to cover these four."
"Why? Their level is just like us or even better. Why will they try to hide?"
Shin answered me with a big smile on his face:
"That's because they are afraid of you. What we did in the woods was hard to believe. I know them well enough. They don't like entering a losing war."
They were afraid of me. That was good news indeed. When someone felt fear, then his reactions became slower and his mind turned cloudy. The main problem was that these people were scattered.
If they were together I would finish them easily with my dragon skill. The one I feared most was that magician with his strange skill. If I or Shin was hit by it then it was game over for us both. That swordsman and that defender we could neutralize them by Shin alone.
Although I felt his hesitation and lack of confidence, I was very confident in his abilities. That left the only variable here was that strategist. He was a big headache for us.
He would be like a moving brain! If we tried to apply any plan, he might discover and counter it. I didn't know him to analyze him perfectly and plan a counter to his tactics.
My only hope was for him to be a lousy strategist. that hope was slim though as I knew how Shin reacted when he saw these four.
No one of them was an easy target. I lacked much essential info. my hope shattered when Shin replied to my question:
"How good is this strategist?"
"Very good."
