Chapter 458: Blazing Judgment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The sword in Brother Windcloud Nine’s hand emanated a faint purple glow. It was wide and thick, its tip was not sharp, and it was jet-black. It resembled a wooden staff in some ways, and its design was exceptionally unique.

Li Yi could identify the weapon even without the use of Divine Looking Glass. It was the Sword of Holy Light — Blazing Judgment!

It was the strongest weapon available to main tanks that were below Level 100 and compared to Amber Sword Heart’s Glory Sword, it was better by an entire tier.

Blazing Judgment contained four special effects, one of which was to reduce incoming damage by 50% and this effect alone had already made it the dream weapon for main tanks.

Purple Quality equipment were abundant, and though they had their ups and downs, Blazing Judgment was undoubtedly the highest tier of Purple Quality weapons.

The moment he saw Blazing Judgment in Brother Windcloud Nine’s hands, Li Yi was thoroughly shaken.

Blazing Judgment dropped from only one location, and it was one of the most secretive places within King of Pantheon. It was one of the Seven Secrets of the game, Life Shrine!

‘Did Brother Windcloud Nine use Blazing Judgment in the past life?’

Li Yi could not recall…

“Let’s have a bet!”

Li Yi was still deep in thought when Brother Windcloud Nine pointed his sword at him and stated his intentions.

Stunned, Li Yi muttered, “Bet?”

“We’re going to bet who’s going to defeat the first boss of Glory first!”

Li Yi was speechless. After giving it some thought, he asked, “What are the stakes?”

“For you, it’s your Orange Bow, and if I win, you’ll need to crush it personally.”

Li Yi gave a faint smile. “And what if you lose?”

Brother Windcloud Nine snorted, “Then you can do whatever you want with me!”

It was an awkward scene, and even the birds around there had gone silent. It was so quiet that if one were to drop a needle, it could be heard.

It was another weapon wager, and the last time Li Yi wagered against Arthur, the orange scepter was lost forever.

Li Yi considered Brother Windcloud Nine and shook his head. “A whole set of the Tier 1 Light Protector equipment isn’t worth much nowadays. Your Level 80 Ring of Blinding Light is pretty good, as it can give 10% of additional healing, but aside from that and your Blazing Judgment, you aren’t really worth much. However, do you actually think that these items of yours can make up for my Orange Quality Bow?”

Li Yi held his Orange Quality Bow up, he looked very much like a phoenix spreading its wings.

A calm expression hung on Brother Windcloud Nine’s face. “I’ll give you all my equipment if I lose. Also, I’ll sweeten the deal by adding a billion bucks!”

“Old Nine, you’ve gone mad!” hissed Windcloud Overlord uncontrollably.

Li Yi was stunned as well. He did not think that Brother Windcloud Nine would proclaim such a huge wager.

Brother Windcloud Nine raised his eyebrows, asking, “You afraid?”

Li Yi chuckled, “It’s not that I’m afraid, but I am curious as to the reason for making such a huge bet.”

“Hmph!”

Brother Windcloud Nine snorted heavily, he balled his fists tightly and his expression took on a shade of green, but still, he did not say anything.

“I’m only asking you one thing; do you dare to take on this bet?!”

“I do!” Li Yi gave a curt reply.

“Good!”

Brother Windcloud Nine hastily wrote down a Betting Contract and tossed it to Li Yi. After reading through it and adding a line of his own, he tossed it back to Brother Windcloud Nine.

The line he added was simple, he wanted to know the reason for Brother Windcloud Nine’s bet.

“Ever since you killed my wife, she’s been grinding levels non-stop every day. Even in her dreams, she would shout out your name and demand revenge. Don’t you think that this is your fault?!” Brother Windcloud Nine’s face contorted into an ugly expression, and he sent a private voice message to Li Yi. After all, there was no way he would announce such an embarrassing secret to the public.

Li Yi widened his eyes and was slack-jawed. He never would have thought that his unintentional actions had changed Brother Windcloud Nine’s wife so much…

“It’s like my wife is a brand-new person, and she always avoids me now. Don’t you think this is your fault?”

“Please, killing inside a game is pretty common, no? Why the f*ck is your wife playing the game if she can’t take it? Why don’t you just delete her account and call it a day?”

“Deleting her account is the easy part, but she always mentions your name now. I absolutely cannot stand this!”

‘Aha~’

Li Yi finally understood, ‘Brother Windcloud Nine is jealous…’

“If it’s really as you say, that your wife is afraid of me killing her, then this could be easily resolved. Give me a time and a place and I’ll meet up with your wife. We’ll have a nice chat and unload the stress that’s bogging her down, and then she’ll return to normal. Isn’t that enough?”

Brother Windcloud Nine’s eyes widened instantly, he spluttered, “Meet up? You want me to bring my wife to meet up with you to have a chat?”

Due to the spur of the moment, Brother Windcloud Nine’s words were not sent privately, instead, it came out directly from his mouth…

Everyone was dumbfounded…

Brother Windcloud Nine’s face flushed beet red.

Li Yi found it awkward as well. It would be hard for anyone to not misunderstand his words when he put it that way.

“You damned perverts! Are you guys swapping wives?”

“I heard long ago that Dark Wing was a MILF lover, and I’ve finally confirmed it today…”

“I never knew that Brother Windcloud Nine was such a pervert as well. The saying that appearances can be deceiving is true, who would’ve thought that behind his polite demeanor lies a cuck-loving heart.”

The players around them broke into chatter and they were all engaged in their own private discussions.

Brother Windcloud Nine closed his eyes, he was deeply regretful.

Everyone had misunderstood, and now, there was no way to clear his name.

The atmosphere was even more awkward now.

To disperse the atmosphere, Li Yi cleared his throat and yelled, “I accept your wager!”

The players around them exchanged glances, it was evident that they had twisted Li Yi’s words as well…

Brother Windcloud Nine tossed the contract to Li Yi, and after signing it, the contract morphed into two rays of white light that entered both of them separately.

The contents of the contract were simple, whoever who got the first kill for Glory’s boss would win, and if neither of them could get the first kill, the contract would automatically become be void after the first kill had been claimed.

Brother Windcloud Nine shouted to his surroundings, “Everyone who joins gets 500 Gold Coins. We have no quotas to our party, so, to those who are interested, please join. If I’m able to get the first kill for the first boss, I’ll definitely treat everyone well!”

“Brother Nine is emptying his coffers again…”

“500 Gold Coins per person, the rich truly are something else…”

“Yeah, I’m moved as well.”

At least 1,000 members from Li Yi’s party had left to join Windcloud Nine’s party.

Money talks, Brother Windcloud Nine had no outstanding qualities, and the only thing he had was his money!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dust rolled from a distance as 50 or so red tanks came flying over and stopping in front of Brother Windcloud Nine.

“To our new brothers in arms, please enter the tank. Also, anyone else who wants to join, please make it quick, we’re leaving soon!”

“Yeah, brothers, anyone who wants to join is allowed to! We have no quotas!”

Defiantly Tyrannical proudly rose his head from a red tank and gestured toward the masses.

Brother Windcloud Nine’s wager against Li Yi was no spur of the moment decision and was something he had been plotting for ages.

Though they only had 50 or so tanks at their side, Brother Windcloud Nine’s had ten thousand more players than Li Yi had.

Aside from Reigning the World, all of the major Western Continent guilds had been bought off by Brother Windcloud Nine.

Brother Windcloud Nine only needed them to defeat the first boss, and it was not as if they were helping him to get the dungeon’s first kill. Furthermore, they were still agonizing over forming a team, so when Brother Windcloud Nine offered them money, they accepted it.

“Brothers, what are you still mulling over? My name is Defiantly Tyrannical, and I have a brother called Defiant Feifei, have you all heard of his name before?”

Defiantly Tyrannical ended his speech halfway and re-entered his tank. This was because his objective had already been achieved, and as such, he did not need to say any more.

“Defiant Feifei? He’s the only one within the list of ten closed beta players that tested the dungeons. Oh yeah, he also played Glory before!”

“Yeah, I’ve read it on the official site as well.”

“Defiant Feifei has been through Glory before, so that means…”

Due to Defiantly Tyrannical’s words, many players had a change of heart. To many of the players, it mattered little who they cooperated with. As long as they could defeat the boss, they cared little for who their leader is.

“Let’s go and get ourselves that 500 Gold Coins!”

Another 1,000 players left Li Yi’s party to join Brother Windcloud Nine’s.

After having his members stolen twice, Li Yi was only left with 2,300 players. Furthermore, he had lost a large number of his tanks as well, and he was back to ten tanks. Those who remained with the Iron Alliance were those without tanks…

“Let’s move!”

Overjoyed, Brother Windcloud Nine valiantly marched towards the first boss…

If Li Yi could obtain the Blue Crystal Rock, it was only logical that other players could as well. The rock dropped easily in the early half of Glory, and the difficulty of the enemies was pretty low too. As long as players were willing to farm small monsters, it would not take more than an hour to obtain the rock.

Li Yi walked forward to the destroyed tanks and began his repairs.

Very quickly, all 20 of the red tanks had been fixed. Once they were enlisted into the party, their appearance changed as well and all of them were now black in color.

With that, Li Yi now had 30 tanks!

“Brothers, it’s okay that our numbers have decreased. After all, we wouldn’t need to argue when we split the loot, and at the very least, everyone would get two pieces of equipment.”

“Hahahaha…”

Li Yi’s joke had instantly livened the atmosphere. The party members scrambled into the tanks and awaited further instructions from Li Yi.

“We’ll have Brother Windcloud Nine and his members to clear our path ahead. All we need to do is to follow slowly behind.” This was Li Yi’s new instruction.

Arachnid mechanical monsters were scattered around them, and though the small ones would not pose much of a problem, the huge ones needed at least ten minutes to be defeated, even with a synchronized assault from 50 tanks.

Fortunately, the huge ones did not clump up, otherwise, they had no chance of making through it.

Tick! Tick! Tick!

Just as Li Yi was about to carefully follow behind Brother Windcloud Nine, the question mark from Traveler’s Tale lit up.

It was a voice message from Silly Swan.

Li Yi had known Silly Swan for almost a month now, but he was still in the dark as to Silly Swan’s identity. As such, he mentally gave her a nickname of Silly Swan.

“I don’t want to have my revenge anymore.”

“Why not?”

“I’m not sure myself, I feel like it wouldn’t matter much even if I get my revenge.”

“Yeah, it’s good to think like that. The most important thing while playing games is to have fun. That won’t be possible if you get mad.”

Silly Swan sent over a smiley-face, showing that she was happy.

A while later, Silly Swan sighed. “If only my husband can think of it that way.”

“What’s up with your husband?”

“He shouts out my adversary’s name during his dreams… I’m really scared…”

“Ehh…”

After hearing Silly Swan’s words, a thought flashed across Li Yi’s mind. ‘I-It couldn’t be… Silly Swan couldn’t be Sister Windcloud Nine right?’

‘My god, this is crazy…’
