Chapter 174: Acting Alone

【14.8 kilometers to the true west, there is a 1000-person Abyssal Army stationed.】

The information given by the purple intelligence is more precise than the blue intelligence, and the reporting range is larger.

Seeing the intelligence saying "stationed", Xiao Feng was overjoyed, immediately taking his squad's friends and heading straight west.

Another team from the Gods' Guild then split up here and went in a different direction.

A dozen kilometers is not far in the game world; after running for less than half an hour, everyone could see in the distance the Abyssal Army stationed and resting in place.

A thousand-strong unit, its highest commander is a Legendary boss Commandant.

At this scale, ordinary teams surely wouldn't dare provoke it; even a level 70 thousand-strong regiment couldn't beat it.

But Xiao Feng's team could take down not just a thousand, but even ten thousand!

"Brothers, get ready to be killed, charge!!"

Chu Long shouted loudly, and the group fearlessly charged forward, just to get the first strike and earn more contribution points.

"Huh? You dare come to die with just this few people?" The Commandant among the Abyssal Army smirked, waved his hand, and over a hundred subordinates rushed out to meet them.

The two sides quickly fell into melee; the player side had the powerful priest Xing Yun Miao, supplies were ample, and although 1 vs 2 lacked enough output, survival was still fine.

To kill more, Zhang Fan and the others directly went past the enemy front line and continued charging toward the rear.

Xiao Feng watched from behind, seeing his teammates each acting like mad dogs, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

Seeing that everyone seemed about to be killed, he quickly threw out a Flame Dragon Flying Dance.

A giant fire dragon with a wingspan of over 200 meters flapped its wings and flew past.

The scorching heat instantly burned all the Abyssal soldiers to ashes.

Everyone's contribution points rose again, they were so happy they couldn't stop grinning.

"Come on, next wave!"

Xiao Feng pulled out a piece of blue intelligence and continued searching for contribution.

Intelligence is good stuff; not only can it be turned in for contribution, it can also help find monsters to farm experience and contribution.

Normal people fighting monsters on the Ashen Plains gain hardly any experience.

But Xiao Feng's team is different; their experience points surge wildly, faster than their normal leveling.

If it weren't for the time spent looking for monsters, they could even treat this place as a leveling map!

Half an hour, one hour, two hours……

The team patrolled and cleared monsters near the Eastern Front battlefield of the Ashen Plains.

Sometimes the intelligence ran short, sometimes many more copies were resupplied.

Fighting on, Xiao Feng's war points unknowingly exceeded 100,000, far ahead of everyone else.

Although the teammates couldn't get the final kill, their points were low.

But their contribution points were terrifyingly high; each person had already saved enough for the contribution requirement of a level 100 Legendary set (8000), so even exchanging one or two pieces of Mythic gear wouldn't be much pressure.

"Following Xiao Feng is truly an extraordinary experience……"

Shen Di and the others sighed.

In Xiao Feng's every move lies the power to destroy heaven and earth; each skill can instantly kill monsters, no matter their level, anyone who comes dies.

Such a speed of gaining contribution is practically cheating.

The 49 of them, as long as they follow Xiao Feng to farm for three days and three nights, can exchange for a full set of Mythic gear.

What does that mean?

Normally hard to obtain and expensive Mythic gear can be mass-produced here with Xiao Feng!

As long as he is willing to spend time cultivating, creating a team fully equipped with eight-piece Mythic sets presents no difficulty!

If it weren't for the Abyssal soldiers respawning every day, even another million wouldn't be enough for him to kill!

……

After taking down another stronghold and killing a level 160 Abyssal Commander, Xiao Feng's points had accumulated to 110,000.

He checked the time; he had been in the battlefield for five hours already, and in about three hours he would need to return to Storm City and meet with City Lord Kaxius to deal with a level 380 Mid God.

Compared to this effortless monster grinding, slaying gods is obviously more what he longs for.

Moreover, before that, he still wanted to go slay another god first!

"Everyone, how are your war missions going?" he asked.

Shen Di and the others all replied: "We finished long ago; there's a huge pile of Abyssal monster essence, and the number of enemies killed exceeds the target by more than tenfold."

Only Mang Mei weakly said: "Still far from enough……"

Hearing this, Xiao Feng laughed and said: "Let's just farm here today; I still have to do a high-difficulty mission, you go back first. Mang Mei's mission… I'll bring you another day when I have time; today I'll do my own."

"Mm, okay, thanks, Big Brother Xiao Feng!" Mang Mei said gratefully.

Her mission is really too hard.

If it were just to crush the Blood Rose Legion and secure final victory on the battlefield, possibly Xiao Feng plus NPC troops could accomplish it.

But she herself has quota requirements: she must obtain 10,000 points of intelligence contribution, 200,000 points of war contribution, and participate in the kills of five or more Demon General bosses and one Demon Commander boss.

If any of those is missing, the mission will be judged a failure; when this season's battlefield ends, she will be punished and rejected by all main cities.

Had she known the mission was this hard, she would definitely not have taken it.

Now that she's taken it, not doing it isn't an option; only by following Xiao Feng to leech contribution and kills does she have a chance to finish.

"Since that's the case, let's head back to town first. Today we've spent five hours in the battlefield, which is extremely valuable, enough to exchange for a decent military rank, hahaha~"

Chu Long laughed loudly, then greeted the Original Dragon Soul Guild members in the team, using a Return City Scroll to go back to Ember Fortress.

Shen Di and Zhan Tian also led their respective brothers away.

Li Li saw everyone had left, then asked Xiao Feng: "Old Xiao, can your mission be done solo? I heard the enemy's main base has a level 300 boss stationed there."

"I'm not sure either." Xiao Feng said, "Charging alone into the lair of dozens of level 200 Mythic bosses, I might get focus-fired and insta-killed. But at most I'd lose 20% experience, no big deal."

If he were an NPC, he would surely not recklessly charge into the enemy's main base.

But as a player with countless lives, he fears nothing.

"If you need help, just call us… although we can't really help much." Li Li said, then greeted the others, "Let's go, we'll head back to clear our daily dungeons; we're about to reset points."

"Mm, see you later, Senior Xiao Feng~"

"When you have time, keep bringing us along~"

Dun Dun, Xing Yun Miao, and the others also said their goodbyes, crushed their scrolls to return to the fortress, and left the team.

The entire team had left, leaving only Xiao Feng alone, listed under the "Sweeping the Abyss" legion.

"Next up is solo performance time."

Seeing his teammates off, Xiao Feng felt much more relaxed.

Actually, for him, playing alone is easier and simpler than playing with friends.

Because his friends are too weak, facing monsters over level 100, they'd be instantly killed; he must time his clears precisely to avoid as much as possible his teammates dying and losing experience.

After continuing like this for several hours, he'd inevitably feel a bit mentally tired.

But he wasn't bored by it.

Being able to bring friends along and help them earn in-game rewards is an honor of being a "big account".

The game world isn't just about utility; you can't measure everything by your own gains and losses.

Moreover, these friends aren't ordinary people; in this game's jianghu, they hold significant sway. Today he's having fun bringing them along; who knows, maybe one day he'll need their help.

"Lei Shen, let's move out!"

Xiao Feng summoned his mount, shot up into the sky, and galloped straight toward the west.
