Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 274

Chapter 274 Shake Off The Shopkeeper
“Senior Daniu, where did you go just now?” Xu You frowned.

Daniu could hear the resentment in Xu You’s words. But he wasn’t angry, “Just now, three Level 70 monks brought a group of Level 50 ghouls into the Fantasy Forest, “Monk and Evil are all at the Golden Elite level. The poisonous plague they emanate is very fatal. In order to protect Li Ba and the others from the plague, I can only lure Monk and Evil to the other side of the forest to fight. Monk and Evil are very troublesome monsters. I can’t care about the remaining ghouls, so I can only rely on them.”

After hearing this, Xu You realized that he had misunderstood Daniu. He hurriedly apologized, “Senior Daniu, I’m sorry, I…”

‘”There’s no need to say that. I know you cherish them, but you have to understand that soldiers must have experienced cruel battles before they can become true warriors. I brought them to train these past two days in order to make a difference today. I believe that after such a battle, they will grow very quickly.” Daniu turned his gaze to the knight NPC behind Xu You. This group of recruits who had survived the battle had already taken off their tenderness. The death of their comrades greatly stimulated them and promoted their growth.

“The price of such growth is simply too great.” Hearing Daniu’s words, Xu You shook his head and said.

“Wuyou, you are kind-hearted. This is a good thing. However, as the Guild Leader of Group of Knights, kindness is far from enough. Do you understand?” Daniu said earnestly.

“What I understand is that seeing them die in front of me always makes me feel guilty.” The longer Xu You entered the game, the more he couldn’t simply treat NPC as a piece of program code.

Hearing this, Daniu was also silent for a while, and then said, “No one will feel good watching their comrades die. However, as a warrior, you must learn to accept these cruel facts. Those who are alive must live together for those who are dead, because they bought your life.” Daniu’s tone was melancholy and sad. Not only did he say those words to Xu You, he also said those new knights who had just experienced death behind Xu You.

Li Ba and the other knights’ NPCs’ expressions became complicated when they heard this, but they quickly became firm. Li Ba dragged his injured body in front of Daniel and said, “Teacher, we won’t let our dead brothers die in vain!”

“Alright.” Daniu only replied with one word. What he wanted was not a promise, but actual action. Li Ba also knew this.

At this time, Chen, who had been abandoned by Xu You, walked over and smiled at Daniu. “Is this the Vice Commander of the Divine Sharp Knights, Mr. Daniu? It’s a great honor to meet you.”

“Who are you?” Daniu was puzzled.

“Haha, my name is Chen. I don’t have a surname, so I can say that I don’t have a surname.” Old Man Chen replied.

“Mage Lei Chen? Long time no see.” Hearing this, Daniu raised his eyebrows and cupped his fists.

“I’ve heard that my mission has been completed. Brother Wuyou, it’s time for me to leave. Farewell, Vice Commander Niu!”

“Brother Chen, thank you so much. Goodbye.”

“Farewell.” Daniu also replied, and then watched Old Man Chen take off on the flying carpet.

After Old Man Chen left, Daniu asked Xu You, “Wuyou, how did you get to know Chen? Why do you call him brother?”

“When I met the King, I knew him. He asked me to address him. I always felt that he was approaching me on his own initiative, but it shouldn’t be bad for me.” Xu You smiled and replied.

“Indeed, there’s no harm in that. Moreover, after meeting me, perhaps his attitude towards you will become even better.” Daniu smiled playfully. In fact, he had long heard of Chen, a bodyguard or staff officer like Emperor William.

“Who cares? Hurry up and get my Group of Knights ready. Isn’t the Emperor’s goal to get me a powerful Group of Knights to serve him?” Xu You spread out his hands, looking very indifferent.

“Eh, Wuyou, how did you know?”

“Haha, am I stupid? I can’t even guess such a simple and clear thing?” In the red brick building at the City of Sunrise Center training ground, Xu You had heard Dick and Daniel talk about Group of Knights a few times. According to his own judgement, Xu You could easily guess the Emperor’s purpose. Dick was right. It was precisely because Xu You was the Halo King’s disciple that he attracted the Emperor’s attention. All of this was of great benefit to Xu You.

“That’s right.” Daniu smiled, then walked to the knight recruits who were bandaging their wounds and resting, and loudly said, “All of you stand up, line up! Hurry up!”

Hearing that, the knights and recruits hurriedly moved forward. Stand up according to the requirements. Daniu’s dignity was still very great. One must know that Daniu was their trainer, Li Ba’s teacher. Isn’t he the boss’s boss? Adding on the fact that Daniu had been acting as a demon instructor for the past two days, this group of recruits didn’t dare to be disobedient.

After the knights and recruits gathered, Daniu nodded in satisfaction and said with a serious expression, “The battle just now was very bitter, but you guys have endured it. Now, you should also know what war is. War is not an exercise, not a training. War can kill people! Remember, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime! Understood?”

“Understood!”

“Next, let me introduce a person to you. His name is Yue Wuyou. He is my Guild Leader, and he will be your Guild Leader in the future!” Daniu waved to Xu You.

Hearing this, Xu You smiled awkwardly and thought to himself, “Your sister, my Guild Leader really doesn’t look like Guild Leader!” Xu You was helpless, but who told him that this Guild Leader was only Level 40?

Hearing this, the eyes of the new knights swept towards Xu You. However, after seeing it, they revealed astonished expressions at the same time. Why is our Guild Leader so low-level?

Feeling the astonishment in the eyes of the younger brothers in the future, who were filled with contempt, contempt, and disregard, he said, Xu You knew that if he didn’t bring out some strength, His Guild Leader didn’t have any prestige. As soon as the Weak Aura opened, the Knights’ eyes immediately changed. They weren’t members of Xu You Group of Knights, so they were the enemy’s target by default. As a result, their stats were immediately reduced by more than 10%. Even Daniel, who was standing beside them, revealed a frightened expression and said, “Guild Leader Dick passed this halo to you so quickly?”

“Pass it on. I’ve been doing this for a long time and spent a lot of money to learn it.” Xu You gritted his teeth in hatred as soon as he mentioned Dick’s method of imparting skills.

“Well, Commander Dick has been too reserved for so many years. Now he has become a money bum.” Daniel seemed to be very touched.

Xu You rolled his eyes and said to the group of younger brothers in front of him, “In the future, you will be members of my Group of Knights League. However, the one in charge of training you is still the powerful knight next to you. He is my senior and also Ben Group of Knights’s deputy commander. Therefore, to mix with him is to mix with me!”

When Daniel heard this, his head was full of black lines. He didn’t expect that Xu You really intended to be the shopkeeper. This was even more excessive than Dick’s. However, just as Daniel was about to reject Xu You’s request, he saw Xu You’s watery eyes staring at him prayerfully. Daniel’s heart softened and he didn’t say anything.

Xu You was delighted to see that Daniu did not object, but now was not the time to be happy. He turned around and continued to say to the knights’ brothers, “The attack of the Calamity is still going on. Our mission has not been completed yet. Everyone, hold on.”

Although Xu You had already made the 16 Knights NPCs present a member of his Knights’ Order, However, his Knights Order was only Level 3 and could accommodate up to 15 people. Therefore, it was impossible to invite all of the Knights’ NPCs into the Knights’ Order. Xu You simply didn’t invite any of them and formed an ordinary guild. When this mission was completed successfully, the King would definitely raise the Knights’ Order’s ranks. At that time, he would invite all of the Knights’ NPCs into the Knights’ Order.

“Yes, Guild Leader!” The knights replied in unison. Their emotions had calmed down a lot. The corpses of the dead NPC knights had been wiped away by the system. This also allowed the surviving knights and recruits to avoid touching the scenery.

Next, the younger brothers spread out around the cabin. Surrounding the cabin, once there were intruders, they only needed to shout to remind their companions. Strangely, after the wave of monsters that Xu You had encountered when he entered the Fantasy Forest, no other monsters had entered for the time being. In the Fantasy Forest, it was impossible to know what was happening outside.

But from that wave of monsters, The closer the Sky Calamity Legion went to the back, the stronger the monster would be. These densely packed monsters were lined up in the Fantasy Forest. There were actually Level 70 elite monsters. Even if there weren’t many of them, it would still be enough for the players. As for ordinary soldiers, they had also reached Level 50 or above. The scourge scenario was indeed a scenario that would only arrive after Level 50. To the players in China, it was too rare.

Just now, when Xu You flew out of Sunrise City on Old Man Chen’s flying carpet, he saw the players using their deaths to defend themselves. In fact, if the players were Level 50, it would be more than enough to deal with natural disasters. Unfortunately … curiosity was killing people, Xu You sighed.

“What’s the matter?” Seeing Xu You sigh, Daniu couldn’t help but ask.

Xu You shook his head and said, “It’s nothing. Senior Daniu, where have you been training these past two days? These recruits are almost Level 40.” This was faster than Xu You’s leveling speed, but it was still an NPC after all, so there was no need to be surprised if anything happened to them.

“Haha, this is a secret.” Daniu shook his head and didn’t tell Xu You the answer.

In response, Xu You curled his lips and changed his online state back to normal. He didn’t need to be as cautious as he was outside the Illusory Forest, so he wasn’t afraid of being disturbed. Furthermore, he planned to ask his friends about the current situation of the Sky Disaster attack. Perhaps, the players in the entire Huaxia District were his idlest now.

However, just as Xu You changed his online status back to normal, the system notifications sounded endlessly, and the ones that he heard the most clearly were Qing Wu and Zhao Xi’s online notifications.
