Guild Wars-Novel

Seeing the amount of damage Misery dealt with one skill, the other Golden savages were unmoved, expecting nothing less. However, the viewers on the stream were baffled beyond measure, some of their eyes bulging out greatly.

[Maxwell Blyat: My God, 10 million with one skill against Rank 3 foes? Shit, I know he's Rank 4 and has level and Rank Suppression, but that's too much!]

[Dantallian 11: Above, Demons do not undergo Rank or Level Suppression, but can give others Rank and Level suppression. It's one of the reasons their race is so OP and feared.]

[Sudo Bee: So it's just fucking raw stats vs stats huh? Then who the fuck is the real demon here??]

[Sexy Layla 69: I think those demons are asking the same question as you.]

The Demon Captain's face changed greatly. He and the three Demon Elite Warriors suffered far less damage, and even managed to fight back and smash some spear shadows away.

However, he was not stupid. He understood that if he let his men die and was left alone, the pressure on him would increase, and the chances of him being injured or killed would exponentially increase.

After all, these foes only sent out two of their people and already did this much. If the other three joined in, what would be the outcome?

The Demon Captain was skilled in battle awareness and made the right deduction, and even decided to make the right follow-up action. However, as they say, before absolute strength, all manner of tricks are useless.

Just as the Demon Captain roared and was about to enter a form of berserk to save his men, a snide voice entered his ears.

"My friend, will you shut up? What the hell are you screeching about?"

BANG!

AP_Berzerker's axes glowed with an explosive white light before he brought them both down on the Demon Captain's body, sending the fellow flying with a deep slash on his body and causing an explosive shockwave that blew everyone except Misery away.

-75,000,000!

ï½¢Mighty Strike â€" Active skill

Effect: Draw power from the divine nature within you and condense it in your axes, striking a single target before you and dealing 3,000% weapon damage and 400% splash damage to an Area Zone.

Cooldown: 1 hour.ï½£

AP's class was more built around raw Strength and Endurance, focusing more on Strength. He was a damage dealer of the purest nature, and his class stats boosts gave 400% to Strength, Speed, Endurance, and Spirit.

With his current stat and equipment, calculated against the Demon Captain's stats and equipment, the final damage calculation for his base damage was 2,500,000.

This was impressive, given that the Demon Captain had higher stats and better equipment than the Demon Warriors.

But when the 3000% boost came in, which was x30, that damage shot up to 75,000,000!

For the Demon Captain who had 98,000,000 HP, this directly took away slightly more than 75% of his total HP and severely injured him, lowering his battle prowess!

Then there was a 400% splash damage to an Area Zone, which meant that every other demon aside from the Demon Captain took a free 10,000,000 damage to their life.

This directly extinguished the Demon Warriors, who burst into blood mist from the shockwave, while the Demon Elite Warriors coughed thick wads of blood.

They were already suffering from the 50 Spear Shadows of the 300 that went for them, splitting into 16 for each of them while the remainder went to attack the captain.

Each had destroyed 4 Spear Shadows with their skill and prowess, leaving 12 to strike them. Each Spear Shadow on them was worth 240,000 damage, which was slightly lower than the 300,000 for the regular Demon Warriors, but of course, the stats between both parties differed.

They initially suffered 2,880,000 damage which when compared to their 25 million HP, was barely more than 10% of their life, something they could tolerate if not for the holes in their torso that leaked blood.

However, this 10 million splash damage was a bit too much, sucking away at 40% of their HP, leaving them with less than 50% in total, and terrible injuries that barely allowed them to stand up.

The crowd went crazy from this.

[Cosmic Gore: Oh my fucking GODDD!!! Did you see that?! Did you guys fucking see that???]

[Character Select Screen: Bro, I need to know how? I need to know how anyone can do so much damage. Like, I know these are core members of Umbra, but please, this is too much.]

[Taoist Dragon Stick: Man, this stream is lit as hell and these people are too goddamn OP. I know they ain't cheating from what we've seen so far, but fuck me.]

[Aardwark The 2nd: Goddess Elle, you have to give us an explanation!]

Elle saw the comments full of shock, confusion, and awe then smiled.

"Sure, I can share it with you. Umbra has a Rank 7 Guild Hall in Cario City, this is something everyone knows by default. Some of you also know of the benefits of the building through rumors and hype, which are mostly true."

Elle then smiled insidiously. "But many of you have heard rumors about the Training Hall, right? Well, I can tell you that the rumors of Umbra members being able to change their classes are true!"

​ If the people on the live stream could make sounds, they would all gasp. As it were, there were hundreds of 'poggers' in the chat going up per second. Of course, this was the 2060 version of poggers that was anti-racist, anti-hetero, anti-ableist, and many other buzzwords.

[Heaven's Library: I knew it! God, I just knew it! Umbra is cheating!!]

[Casual Player Here: God this is so unfair. Why do you guys get to change your classes when we can't do shit?!]

[White Knight Cuck: I demand that umbra open such facilities to the public!! Otherwise, we will declare multiple Guild Wars!]

A lot more comments passed through exclaiming with dissatisfaction at Umbra's 'good fortune', and Elle only sneered but didn't explain, Rather, she casually looked away and folded her arms.

"All non-members of Umbra listening to this, I hereby announce a bounty pool of 100 million platinum. Everyone who kills and shows proof of their kill of anyone who threatened or criticized Umbra will get a share of the bounty pool, calculated by the AI." Elle declared coldly.

The chat went silent and then exploded, but before they could even criticize further fearlessly, the AI made an announcement.

ï½¢System to World Announcement

An influential player has generated a World Event! Please check the details below.ï½£

ï½¢The Great Bounty Hunt â€" World Quest

Description: Elle Leone, a core member of Umbra, a Golden Savage, and one of the top 20 players of the world, has declared on a public Livestream with more than 75% of the entire playerbase viewing that a bounty of punishment has been declared on select players!

Mission 1: Hunt down the following players: Heaven's Library, Casual Player Here, White Knight Cuck, etc (+200,000 others)

Mission 2: Reduce them to Level 0 for the collective bounty hunter reward which is the Special Rank 'Umbra's Killer Hound'.

Limitation 1: Players must openly declare that they are Bounty hunters for Umbra to be rewarded for the kill.

Limitation 2: Players can only exponentially increase their payout by killing a new target on the list.

Provision 1: Players can accrue linear increases to their rewards after killing a single target more than once.

Provision 2: During the event, players who act as Bounty Hunters have all travel and other misc expenses paid from the Bounty Pool.

Rewards: A basic share of the Bounty Pool, A Special Rank, and a permanent 10% off when using money or Umbra points at any establishment owned by the Guild.ï½£

Seeing these rewards, the chat exploded once more. People became crazy as they saw the huge payout.

Rubbish, this was 100 million Platinum, not 100 million gold or 100 million silver. With the current size of the playerbase that was reaching nearly 1 billion, even if this money was given to everyone, they would still each have more than a lot of gold.

Much less the fact that the targets were only 200,000. This meant that not even 10 million could eat some of this payout if they were not fast enough. 10 million people sharing this meant that, all things being equal, everyone would get 10 platinum.

While yes, the playerbase of this timeline was not as poor as the previous timeline in the same time period, it was a pipe dream to expect them to pass up such free money.

As such, many people had evil and cruel eyes as they logged off the stream and ran off. Despite the numbers of viewing in the stream dropping rapidly like a bomb, Elle was not dissatisfied but rather smirked.

This was how Umbra rolled! No long talk, no unnecessary face slapping, no drama!

Just a big fat fuck you to your face!
