"Hahahaha! He tried to attack an event NPC!" One of the players yelled out as they laughed. The player who had been killed instantly became a laughing stock on Alantina Online's forums.

"Everyone, Look! This player tried to attack an NPC and was instantly stabbed!" A video showed the player as he took out his weapon and went to attack, only to turn into balls of light in an instant.

"Hahahaha! What an idiot!? Who the hell actually attacks an event NPC? An event is always going to have NPCs who are ultra strong! But I must say you guys at the capital are lucky. We have to fight these Trigoons, who are hard as hell to fight!"

"Yeah! Common gaming sense. Everyone knows not to attack NPCs during events! They are like gods. Only other NPCs can kill them! By the way, +1 on being lucky!"

"+1!"

"+1!"

"+1!"

"+1!"

Many people only commented a +1 due to being in other areas. This was the first time Vance had been exposed to the real world since his death, and it was also the start of his legendary status.

Vance ignored the players chatting around him as he suddenly shouted: "Heroes! It is time to move! Protect the witnesses with everything you have!" With this, Vance canceled his earth wall as hundreds of players surrounded the group.

Vance pulled Sally and Alice close to him and said: "Stay close, do not wander off."

"Can we actually rely on these other worlders!?" Alice asked in a low whisper.

Vance shook his head and answered: "Of course not. But your father would be pissed if I keep destroying his streets, so with them, we can use them as a human meat shield." 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

"Pfft!" Sally could not hold back her laughter. Vance using the other worlders who were immortal as a means of a meat shield tickled her funny bone! It was also an ingenious plan!

"Alright, let's move!" Vance shouted out as he began walking forward. The crowd could only follow Vance while following him. Like this, the back allies of the capital became flooded with players.

The archer who was looking for a clear shot was unable to get one as the witnesses were now more in number and with their heads lowered as they walked. He no longer had a clear shot! "Damnit! The prince is going to kill me!" After thinking for a few seconds, he began to move. He had to finish his mission one way or another.

As for Vance and his group, Vance leaned over to Alice and whispered: "When Sally says which direction, shoot an arrow on her words. That archer will probably not give up easily."

"Mmm… Are you sure I can do it?" Alice asked. She felt slightly worried. If she messed up, someone might get hurt. This she really feared.

"Don't you get an area of effect spell called Arrow Rain? Just use that in the direction she calls out." Vance suggested.

"This… What if I hit the citizens? I am not worried about the other worlders, but the citizens are also walking around." Alice pursed her lips. She did not wish to use such a spell.

"Then you will need to aim carefully with a single arrow," Vance replied. He smiled and turned his attention to his front. It was a long walk from the gates to the Duke's house. If they made it, it would mean his life quest was that much closer to being completed or officially completed altogether. He couldn't help but feel a bit excited. He wanted to move on and keep leveling!

Everything went smoothly for almost fifteen minutes when suddenly…

*Boom!*

A loud explosion was heard, and a good amount of players instantly died. "What the fuck was that!?" One player yelled out. She looked at the huge hole in the ground and the twenty or so players who were disappearing.

"Quickly! Get into formation! Protect the witnesses!'"Vance yelled out. He moved the guards and the man from the woods to the far side of the alley as he looked around. He did not stand in place as he quickly hurried forward. "Do not let them attack the witnesses!"

"Everyone, Gather up! Surrounded the witnesses! If you die, rush back!" A female player yelled out as she raised her sword in the air. When Vance saw this girl, he narrowed his eyes. He knew this player, the White Knight Cynthia. She was also one of the high level players who were at the top of the rankings. But she was a white knight class which was a form of tank healer. She could tank and heal at the same time. If she were to reach her final evolution, she would have become a holy paladin.

He had to admit. After seeing her this early in the game, she still had the same commanding aura she always had. She was the leader of the White Knights, a guild named after her own class. While the name was kind of generic, they were actually one of the top guilds in Alantina Online.

But seeing her control the situation and get the players together allowed Vance to feel a bit of relief. This meant that things would not be so crazy. "Another one! Block the attack!" Cynthia yelled out. "Archers fire at the rooftops!"

"Shit, what is this!?" The guard who had tried to finish the job he was tasked with, had no choice but to back off from the roof's edge and move out of the way. There were too many arrows raining down on him!

Vance and his group continued to move as the archers under Cynthia's command kept their bows trained on the rooftops. Not allowing anything to peek over the tops. This left the guard who was up there with no other choice but to back off. "Dammit! These other worlders are just getting in the way! Why the hell are they all helping the princess!? I should just report this to His Highness!"
