Chapter 78: How About We Quit Prideful?

In his previous life, Li Cheng had participated in the Holy War, but he had never received such a powerful buff. His attack and defense stats were doubled, and so was his attack and movement speed. The buff was a doubling effect.

Compared to the buff effect from last time, this one could be said to be several times more powerful. As the highest commander of this battle, Li Cheng had also unlocked many special skills!

[Rapid March (SSS)]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: SSS]

[Effect: after use, the movement speed of all Holy War troops will be increased by 500%. After activation, 1,000 contribution points will be consumed per second.]

[Cooldown time: none]

[ Frenzied Shooting (SSS)]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: SSS]

[Effect: after use, the range of all Holy War long-range troops will be increased by 100% and attack speed will be increased by 100%. After activation, 1,000 contribution points will be consumed per second.]

[Desperate Boat (SSS)]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: SSS]

[Effect: after use, all troops of the Holy War will have their defenses decreased by 50% and attack increased by 200%. After use, 1,000 contribution points will be consumed per second. This skill can not be used at the same time as the Holy Light Blessing.

[Cooldown time: none]

[Holy light blessing (SSS)]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: SSS]

[Effect: after use, all Holy War troops will have their defenses increased by 500%. Upon activation, 1,000 contribution points will be consumed per second. This skill can not be used at the same time as Desperate Boat.

[Cooldown time: none]

Strictly speaking, these four skills were considered strategic skills. They would only be activated during large-scale battles or Holy Wars and the highest commander would obtain a few of these skills.

These skills would increase the strength of all the troops participating in the Holy War and if used properly, they would definitely be able to change the outcome of the battle!

As for the strength of these skills, it was also related to the supreme commander himself. After being amplified by 10,000 times, Li Cheng’s strategic skills could be said to be ridiculously strong!

Rapid March provided extremely strong mobility of the troops, directly increasing their movement speed by five times. Regardless of whether they were chasing after the enemy or fleeing, this skill was extremely powerful.

Needless to say, the Frenzied Shooting and Desperate Boat were powerful explosive skills. Moreover, these two skills could be used at the same time. After activating these two skills, the long-range troops’ attacks would be very terrifying.

As for the Holy Light Blessing, it provided a powerful defensive ability, directly increasing their defense by five times. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was an invincible skill.

There were gains and losses. While the four skills were powerful, the contribution points consumed per second was equally terrifying. If three skills were activated at the same time, the contribution points consumed per second would be 3,000. An ordinary commander would definitely not be able to bear it, but for Li Cheng, this was not a problem at all.

Very soon, all the players who had received the Holy War quest were enveloped by that holy light. They all enjoyed the effect of the Holy War of Glory and could not help but sigh.

[F*CK, isn’t this effect too strong?]

[Am I really seeing things? Ridiculous!]

[Netherworld boss is awesome. The buff last time was already strong enough. I didn’t expect it to be even more ridiculous this time!]

[Hahaha, with this buff, my army’s going to be invincible!]

[Following Netherworld boss really brings a lot of benefits. With this buff, who cares about having to surrender one-fifth of the contribution points?]

[@Netherworld boss, from now on, you’ll be my idol. No, you’ve always been my idol!]

In an instant, screenshots of the Holy War’s buff were quickly posted on the forum. Those players who were not interested in joining the Holy War instantly became jealous. Without care for anything else, they put down everything they were doing and rushed toward the Church of Light’s stronghold. If Li Cheng’s quest was closed, then they would really suffer a great loss.

Some were happy while others were sad. On the other hand, some players were definitely unhappy. In Peerless Prideful’s guild territory, Peerless Prideful’s face darkened while listening to the system notification.

Originally, as one of the three great guilds of the Divine Dragon Alliance, Peerless Prideful had also planned to guide the players to participate in this world event. Of course, the goal here was to let the other players become their workers and to fight for the welfare of their own guild.

In the past, all the big guilds had done this, providing everyone a win-win opportunity. However, with the appearance of Li Cheng, everything changed. He single-handedly broke the profit chain of the big guilds.

Peerless Prideful gritted his teeth, thinking to himself, ‘If you don’t want me to participate, I don’t even want to.’ He immediately ordered the rest of the guild, “Everyone, don’t accept Netherworld’s quest!”

In the guild chat, the guild players were also discussing Peerless Prideful’s order.

[This BUFF is so strong. I’m so envious.]

[I’m jealous, but the Guild Leader doesn’t want us to accept this quest.]

[It’s so unfair. Last time, my troops were all killed by Netherworld. Now, I haven’t even managed to recruit as many troops.]

[Speaking of which, I’m starting to regret it…]

[Yeah, Netherworld was able to face millions of monsters in the past. How did we even dare to fight him?]

[Now that I think about it, we’re really stupid. We know that we couldn’t win, but we still tried to force our way through.]

[Why don’t we run away?]

As soon as these words were said, the entire group chat quieted down. ‘Good God, how did you dare to say that in this group chat? Let’s talk in private!’

As expected, the administrator immediately took action. He immediately banned this person from speaking and sent him out with a plane ticket. Then, a notice immediately appeared, warning the players…

However, the seed of what that person said had already been planted. This thought spread in the hearts of countless people. Not long after, a message popped up on the administrator’s page.

“Ding, dong, Main Punishment has exited the Prideful Guild’s group chat!”

The moment such a message was sent out, it was as if the floodgates of a dam had been opened and the floodwaters within could no longer be stopped.

“Ding, dong, You Luo has exited the Prideful Guild’s group chat!

“Ding, dong, Thunder Roar Thousand Army has exited the Prideful Guild’s group chat!”

“Ding, dong, Killing Intent in the Crotch has exited the Prideful Guild’s group chat!”

All of a sudden, all of the Prideful Guild’s players sent out received such news. Countless people had chosen to leave.

In the early stages of the game, no one had created a guild in-game thus far. Joining a guild at this stage only meant that the players were joining the group chat and playing together. Leaving the guild now would not cause them any losses at all. At most, they would just be resented by the Prideful Guild. To them, that was nothing.

Peerless Prideful received the report from his subordinate immediately, but he did not care at all. He said disdainfully, “They’re all unspecialized players. How could the core of our Prideful Guild be affected by Netherworld’s small benefits?”
