Chapter 110: The Group of Traitors (2)

Chapter 110: The Group of Traitors (2)

Deliberately failing the mission and traversing each guild, hunting monsters

Not only does this yield superior experience points, but it also provides items from all three locations.

Especially the runes awarded when the reputation level is high in each guild. You will be able to monopolize it all.

Ryu Mins plan for this 8th round revolves around obtaining two specific runes: the Rune of Durability from the dwarves and the Rune of Foresight from the humans.

From the elf guild, he could acquire potions, and there is one potion that Ryu Min is coveting.

Regardless, the core strategy for this 8th round is to traverse each guild, monopolizing experience points and items along the way.

In order to achieve these goals, joining the traitor group appeared to be the best choice. However, this might not be a fortunate turn of events for the other traitors.

Ill do whatever it takes to ensure the quest fails.

He was a member of the traitor group, secretly hoping for the failure of his fellow traitors. It was a situation where he could be called a double agent.

[Haha, it seems like all the indecisive folks who couldnt pick a guild have gathered here.]

Angel Ariel, the one responsible for explaining the 8th round, appeared with an incongruous smile.

[Everyone, gather here now. If not now, we wont see each other, and you should at least know each others faces, right?]

As the angel fluttered her wings, the scattered players assembled.

Wow, Black Scythe?

Why is Black Scythe here?

No, why am I in the traitor group?

[A few of you havent grasped the situation yet. But thats why I am here, right?]

Ariel kindly explained to the players how they had become traitors.

Oh, it was because I didnt choose?

What was I thinking

So, is everyone here because they couldnt choose a guild?

While the others were still distracted by the angels explanation. Ryu Min quickly counted the heads of the players gathered here, including himself. There were 29 in total.

Right now, I need to remember their faces. Itll make it easier to deal with them when I eventually betray them.

Ryu Min began to memorize the faces of the traitor group quickly.

Why was he memorizing faces when he could recognize them through the wristbands if they were in a party?

Well, were a group, not a party, so

She had a point.

If it were any other person it would be true, not me though.

[And if you wear a helmet, it will sufficiently conceal your face. It should be acceptable, right?]

As if expecting an answer, the angel glared at them, and the players had no choice but to nod.

Yes, yes.

Completely understandable.

[Alright, shall we proceed then? Please be careful because when a guild reaches its destination, you will all be weakened and have to try again with another guild.]

They might not be in the same party, but they were bound by destiny, sharing the same quest.

Oh? Which guild are we going to stop?

Are we supposed to retry the guild if we fail?

[Oh, I forgot to mention. Youll be facing the guild in the order of Dwarves, Elves, and Humans. The difficulty level increases in the same order.]

Oh? So, what if we fail in the Dwarf guild?

The angel chuckled.

[Your stats will drop by 20%, and youll have to tackle a more challenging intermediate level.]

Ah, got it.

In essence, the more they failed, the tougher the next challenge became. When this realization dawned on the traitors, they had one singular thought,

We must succeed in the Dwarf guild at all costs!

This is our only shot!

The traitor group was resolute, but they remained oblivious to one critical fact: as long as Ryu Min was in the picture, the odds of successfully completing the quest were slim.

Wouldnt it be convenient if I found and eliminated all the traitor groups right from the start? After all, Ive memorized their faces.

While Ryu Min smiled, Ariel unfurled her wings.

[Now, its time to go. Traitor group!]

May your betrayal bring delight to those above!

Ariel, keeping her inner thoughts to herself, gestured.

With a radiant burst of light, Ryu Min and the other 29 traitors vanished.

Their mission to protect the Dwarf guild had officially begun.
