Chapter 867: Chapter 73: Great Wilderness Hermit, Demon Wolf Devouring Heaven

"Feng, it’s started, it’s started!" Dongfang Sheng shouted excitedly on the phone.

Xiao Jie looked at the computer screen, his expression calm, and asked indifferently, "Have the Five True People joined?"

"Not yet, the NPC generals are leading troops to break the formation, and the Five True People are doing pre-battle mobilization for the players."

"How many players are participating in the Dragon Slaying Operation?"

"At least five or six hundred, mostly high-level players above level 30. Our guild alone sent nearly two hundred people, and Aoao Niubi Empire also sent about one hundred and fifty or sixty.

There are also a bunch of small guilds! Even solo players hustling alone, these guys probably just want to score some loot from the World Boss. I reckon most of them are just bystanders who won’t dare to lead the charge."

"Understood. Keep monitoring the battlefield and report the dynamics to me at any time,"

"Don’t worry, Feng. You can rely on my work."

Xiao Jie hung up the phone, but his mood was not as calm as he appeared.

Five or six hundred high-level players participating, this battle has rallied the top players in the entire game.

With such immense power, even the World Boss stands no chance.

If five or six hundred people launched a full attack, each dealing just a bit of damage, they would annihilate the Boss.

Of course, that’s the ideal scenario. In reality, few dare to stand at the forefront, much like a hundred unarmed humans facing a tiger; everyone knows they could win together, but they all understand the first few to charge will likely be killed by the tiger. Who would want to be the cannon fodder?

And with mutual wariness, they might not unleash their full power, making it less effective than a large guild facing it alone.

Even so, with so many people fighting together, the odds of victory are still quite high.

In comparison, he’s indeed taking quite a risk this time.

But Xiao Jie did not waver; to seek wealth and risk going to the immortal and god, one must struggle.

Moreover, he had great confidence in his plan. So what if it’s a World Boss? As long as the tactics are appropriate, it can be taken down.

Xiao Jie’s plan was simple. Wang Xie wants to upend the chessboard and smash the pieces, but he certainly wouldn’t stay on the chessboard himself.

Otherwise, with those five or six hundred high-level players plus the strength of the Five True People, Wang Xie wouldn’t withstand it either.

At the critical moment of the great battle, Wang Xie will surely flee.

And to manipulate formations and activate the Demon Talisman, Wang Xie will undoubtedly need a Magic Altar to enhance his mana, which can’t be too far from the battlefield and must be well hidden.

Therefore, the first thing Xiao Jie asked Shen Jizi to calculate was the location of Wang Xie’s hidden Magic Altar.

When the time comes, they will enter early. As soon as Wang Xie appears, they will immediately gang up on him to disrupt Wang Xie’s scheme.

But dealing with a World-level Boss, relying on just their ten men isn’t enough; they must have a high-level NPC expert to take the lead, divert the attacks, and absorb the main damage.

Originally, he considered finding Master Xiao Yue, but he ultimately gave up, as Xiao Jie was well aware that he didn’t have enough influence to persuade the other party.

So, as a compromise, the only suitable choice left was the imprisoned Great Wilderness Hermit.

The place where the Great Wilderness Hermit was imprisoned was concealed by Wang Xie’s heavenly secret, making it undetectable by Master Qingfeng and others.

But Xiao Jie didn’t think Wang Xie’s ability to conceal heavenly secrets could be more powerful than a genuine immortal.

So the second thing he asked Shen Jizi to calculate was the location of the Great Wilderness Hermit’s imprisonment.

As for why they had to wait until after the battle began to rescue him, it was because acting too early might alert Wang Xie, and he might have teleportation spells, which would complicate matters.

Now, at the climax of battle, it’s the perfect time to strike.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jie opened YY—all the players were already in position, just waiting for his command.

"Master Chen, let’s begin our operation too."

"Understood."

For this operation, Xiao Jie divided the ten into two teams.

Chen Tianwen led Hao Mie, Jiu Jianxian, Dida La, and Yi Wushuang on one path, with the mission to locate Wang Xie’s hidden Magic Altar.

While he led I Want to Be Immortal, Ye Luo, An Ran, and Bai Ze on another path, aiming to rescue the Great Wilderness Hermit.

The five had already secretly arrived outside the State Mansion of Beiming State—outside of Chuyun City the night before.

At this moment, as the five logged in, what appeared before them was a mountain villa deep in the mountains.

This is the place.

According to Shen Jizi’s calculations, the Great Wilderness Hermit was imprisoned here.

At first glance, this villa looked very ordinary.

Much like most villages and manors in the game, it had tall walls, with some manor guards standing atop them.

The guards were not high-level, mostly over ten levels, appearing to have some defensive capability yet not seeming like a heavily fortified military area.

If it weren’t for an immortal personally calculating and describing the location, Xiao Jie could hardly imagine Long Wushang imprisoning the Great Wilderness Hermit in such a place.

"Ye Luo, it’s your turn."

"Got it, I’m on it."

Ye Luo didn’t waste words, acknowledged, and his figure slipped through the wall like a ghost.

Xiao Jie and the others were also ready for the attack. Ye Luo’s efficiency was remarkable, taking less than three minutes before his voice came through YY.

"Found it."

"Charge in!" Xiao Jie immediately ordered.

The manor guards were yellow-named NPCs. Killing them would drop Beiming State’s reputation, but there was no time to worry about such trivial matters now. The five chopped through like cutting vegetables, and those low-level manor guards were slaughtered without the slightest resistance.
