VRMMO: The Unrivaled-Chapter 1509: Little Piglet’s Goodbye

Chapter 1509: Little Piglet’s Goodbye

The closest graveyard to the battlefield was very close, so a player could run back to their corpse in 5 minutes at most. What this meant was that there was no end to either side’s reinforcements, and that there wasn’t much point in continuing this battle besides pure schadenfreude. As a result, everyone stopped fighting eventually. It wasn’t like we were using our full strength anyway. I couldn’t speak on behalf of Warsky Alliance and Candle Dragon, but for us, the main goal of this battle was to train the Dragonlight Cavalry to be more impactful in combat, not to defeat Candle Dragon or Warsky Alliance. In fact, us executive-level players stopped fighting after we had successfully beaten Candlelight Shadow back.

The battlefield was currently covered in slowly despawning corpses, equipment, potions, and more, and Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Xu Yang and the others were looting them all. Despite being ganged up by Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance, we were still the victors of this battle. Our kill/death ratio was above 3 against Warsky Alliance and Candle Dragon. Naturally, the majority of the loot on the battlefield had been claimed by us.

On a low hill at the edge of the battlefield.

I was sitting on top of a giant rock and watching the sky when I murmured, "I wonder if Little Piglet can defeat Purgatory Mad Dragon…"

Lin Yixin answered after blinking once, "It’s hard to say. Little Piglet’s greatest force is his 100k Iron Cutter Cavalrymen, but Wang Dongliang and Lu Chao borrowed a lot of elite forces from Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance since they knew he was coming for them from the beginning. Moreover, Little Piglet had lost his Crimson Dragon Arm prior to entering the exclusive battlefield, so he’s not at his best right now…"

I took out the Crimson Dragon Arm from my bag and frowned. "This item was Red Maple’s, then Little Piglet’s, then mine. So far, no other item of the Twelve Divine Armaments or Ghost Armaments that I know of has changed hands this rapidly. It is on track to becoming the most cursed item in the game…"

Lin Yixin giggled. "So what if it’s cursed? Our big titty priest right here is the perfect candidate to cleanse it!"

Murong Mingyue crossed her arms across her own oversized weapons before threatening, "Is that a veiled insult, Yiyi? Have you forgotten that I’m the one who’s responsible for your new room arrangements? If I want to, it is totally in my power to arrange Lu Chen’s room on the first floor and yours on the third!"

Lin Yixin hurriedly rose to her feet and held Murong Mingyue’s hand placatingly, "Nooo, I was just joking, Sister Mingyue… Plus, you can’t deny that your t… I mean chest, is pretty huge. I’d be lying if I said I don’t feel jealous from time to time…"

I curled my lips. "There is no need to be jealous of a woman who can’t ever look down and see her own feet, you know…"

Murong Mingyue fell silent for a second before saying, "I may not be able to see my own feet, but at least I can use my chest as a pillow when I'm tired. Judging from Yiyi and Eve's breast size, that is one treatment you won't be getting in the future—stop! Don't hit me…"

Everyone grinned with schadenfreude when Lin Yixin and He Yi closed in on Murong Mingyue. I had to pretend that I hadn't noticed them because the situation was embarrassing enough already.

……

Not far away next to a maple forest, Warsky and Candlelight Shadow were conversing with each other while guarded by their own men.

Warsky commented with dissatisfaction, "That was a 2v1, and we still lost. What do you have to say for yourself, Candlelight Shadow? I can't believe you still lost despite being able to dish out 9 times more damage than normal with the Dragon Tooth Arm…"

Candlelight Shadow uttered through gritted teeth, "Cut the nonsense! The Dragon Tooth Arm is hardly an omnipotent item, not to mention that Lu Chen has gained a god's power of Domain on top of his OP skills and equipment! If you think you're so hot you can fight him yourself!"

Warsky laughed. "What a surprise! I didn't think I would see the day the Martial God admits inferiority! Then again, you haven't been number one in a very long time. Lu Chen is the number one active CGL Hall of Famer right now, and his total points are far ahead of yours…"

Candlelight Shadow: "..."

Unable to stand the bickering between the two guild leaders, October Rain spoke up. "Can we not do this and focus on what actually matters, such as the outcome of the battle between Purgatory Mad Dragon and Little Piglet?"

Candlelight Shadow said disdainfully, "There's nothing to worry about. Although Little Piglet is supported by the Northern Alliance's Iron Cutter Cavalry, lead can never turn into gold. Even if I pretend that most of the Chinese army Purgatory Mad Dragon borrowed are trash, the 20k Life of the Tamer players we lent them don't fall into this category. You know how deadly the Lantern Girls are, not to mention that Little Piglet has lost his Crimson Dragon Arm. He is like a tiger whose fangs have been blunted. It'll take a miracle for him to defeat Purgatory Mad Dragon as he is…"

Warsky nodded in agreement. "I agree. Warsky Alliance has also lent Purgatory Mad Dragon 50k Gold Cavalrymen, not to mention that the Purgatory Mad Dragon players fighting the guild battle are the elites serving under Ray of Sunshine. Overall, their chance of winning is over 70%, so there is nothing to worry about, Little Rain!"

However, October Rain frowned from her seat and responded, "Honestly, I don't feel nearly as confident as you are. Did you forget that the elites of Soul Battle Robes—Song of Ice and Fire, Ringwraith and God Bone—are supporting Little Piglet as well? Hmph. If you ask me, I think the guild battle could go either way. In fact, Little Piglet has higher explosive power than Ray of Sunshine when under pressure. Assuming that Song of Ice and Fire didn't die immediately from an unlucky strike or something, Dark Mercenaries may actually be favored to win this battle…"

Candlelight Shadow frowned deeply, "Don't you think you're overestimating Little Piglet a little, Beauty October?"

October Rain retorted with a raised eyebrow, "You're the one who's underestimating him because of your arrogance, Candlelight Shadow. If he really was the 'lead' you claim he was, he wouldn't have defeated the super guilds of Japan and India in the previous three guild battles. Also, he purposely endured to the fourth just so he could challenge Purgatory Mad Dragon at his best, and he is motivated by revenge as well. I don't think you understand just how much power it gave him."

Candlelight Shadow opened and closed his palm in one smooth motion before declaring, "I don't need to understand shit about Little Piglet! All I need to do is to extinguish him like a fly when he finally sets his sights on Candle Dragon!"

October Rain chuckled. "It sounds like you're going to attack Little Piglet if Purgatory Mad Dragon loses, and your 20k Life of the Tamer tamers lose their equipment and levels as a result."

"That is exactly what I'm saying."

Candlelight Shadow said coldly, "Little Piglet has repeatedly invaded Vanished God City and Wind City's borders to attack our server's guilds using the Northern Alliance's forces. If he really does defeat my tamer army, then I will hunt him down to the end of the world and more! Candle Dragon won't stop until he has deleted his account and apologized for everything!"

Warsky nodded approvingly. "That, I agree, is the right thing to do. From the day Little Piglet challenged us, he should be prepared to face the ultimate retaliation!"

……

After that, most of us stayed quiet and waited patiently for the guild battle to end. Right now, Little Piglet was without a doubt the focus of all Chinese players. No one knew what the final fate of the king of outer lands would be.

While waiting, I tossed my remaining 37 Divine Crystals into He Yi's hands and said, "You wanna give ascension a go, Sister Yi?"

He Yi nodded and gave it a go. Unfortunately, she failed.

A different silence permeated throughout our formation. It looked like the success rate of this P2W ascension was even more abysmal than we imagined. Ascending via leveling was even worse, however. Currently, there were over 100k players who were Level 250 or higher in the entire world, but only 2 who had become a god via leveling. That was all you needed to know to know just how unlikely it was to ascend via leveling.

I consoled He Yi, "It's no trouble, Eve. We simply need to kill more bosses and grind another 100 Divine Crystals. Eventually, we'll succeed. It's not even too low a chance. Just look at Yiyi, she succeeded on her second attempt, didn't she?"

He Yi nodded with a smile. "I know, and honestly, I'm in no hurry to ascend. Not even Li Chengfeng and Gui Guzi have ascended yet, so I'm not worried."

Li Chengfeng was standing at the edge of the hill when he heard this. He shuddered visibly before saying, "The incorrigible public servant expresses that he may never gather 100 Divine Crystals…"

The charade lasted until Yamete pointed a finger at his nose and said, "Pooh! You say that, but everyone knows you're only 3 short from attempting an ascension…"

Li Chengfeng's visage abruptly turned sinister. "I'm sorry, but I cannot let you live any longer, Mamate. You know too much…"

Yamete: "..."

It was at this moment a system announcement resounded across the sky. The guild battle had finally come to an end, and the outcome was—

System Announcement: Attention all players, the guild challenge issued by guild Dark Mercenaries has ended.

Final player count:

Dark Mercenaries: 27

Purgatory Mad Dragon: 0

All players of the Purgatory Mad Dragon guild will lose 3 levels and many pieces of their equipment. The guild will be disbanded immediately!

……

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh…

A great number of light specks landed on the plain in front of us before assuming human forms. It was the Purgatory Mad Dragon players who went to battle.

"Fuck!"

Wang Dongliang let out a furious roar while staring down at his body. "I lost my sword and my metal armor! How is the drop rate so high? How is this fair? How did we lose…"

Roaming Dragon dismounted from his horse and lamented dispiritedly while staring at the guild emblem that was vanishing from his arm, "How can this be… Everything we invested has gone up in flames… Is this the end of Purgatory Mad Dragon?"

Coldmoon Rose tried to console him. "It’s not over yet. Our levels can be retrained, and we can just make a new guild under a new name. We can restart from—"

Roaming Dragon cut her off with a furious roar. "Restart my ass! I invested hundreds of millions to get everyone their equipment, and more than half of that is gone just like that! How the fuck are we support to restart anything? How can we hope to return to the Top 10 of the Guild Ranking? I would never have joined hands with Hegemon Palace if I knew this would happen! My old man is going to skin me alive when he learns that all the money he invested is for naught!"

Coldmoon Rose could only stand there and look like she could cry at any moment.

Wang Dongliang pointed a finger at him, "What the fuck are you trying to say, Lu Chao? Are you seriously going to blame all the loss on Hegemon Palace? Everyone in my guild did their fucking best, and we all paid the price for losing!"

Roaming Dragon humphed resentfully before saying, "Get lost. Starting now, Purgatory Mad Dragon is no more, and I… I am leaving!"

He crushed a return scroll and disappeared after saying that.

……

Suddenly, a chorus of horse hooves interrupted the short silence. It was Candlelight Shadow and Warsky getting on their mounts and going somewhere!

I hurriedly raised the Xuanyuan Sword and ordered, "We’re following them! Let’s go!"

Everyone got on their mounts and rushed to the scene as well.

At a corner surrounded by countless Gold Cavalry and Qiu Beast Cavalry, there stood Little Piglet and several thousand Iron Cutter Cavalrymen. The Cold Wind Swordsman looked unperturbed despite his situation, and Shangguan Wan’er was just as calm beside him.

……

Candlelight Shadow crossed his sword in front of his chest and growled, "Do you understand what you’ve done, Little Piglet? Do you understand the consequences you’ll be facing real soon?"

Warsky uttered just as angrily, "You are a traitor who colluded with the Northern Alliance, Little Piglet! You are the shame of our server, and you won’t be existing on this map by the time we’re done with you!"

Little Piglet let out a careless chuckle before dismounting from his Ink Qilin. He then said, "I know I offended many of my countrymen. I’m also aware that I’m a cursed man. So yes, I will take responsibility for everything I’ve done. I only ask that you don’t harm my brothers and sisters for my sins. Their only crime is following a madman!"

A bunch of data circulated his palm as he raised his arm into the air. "I will delete my account. This is my final goodbye to you all. So long!"

I shouted, "Stop! You don’t need to delete your account!"

Little Piglet looked at me and gave me a smile. "Thank you, Lu Chen. You are a good friend, and both Wan’er and I are thankful for everything you’ve done for us. Goodbye, my friend!"

……

Swhoosh!

Streams of data scattered in every direction, and Little Piglet’s body slowly dissolved into dust. Just like that, his account was gone forever.

Shangguan Wan’er wordlessly did the same thing and dissolved into a pile of data dust as well.
