Chapter 420: A Technical Loophole

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

With a gate of this size and with the capabilities of this group of people, it really wouldn’t be impossible for them to defend the headquarters for another 20 minutes.

Sanguine Warflag said with envy, “If only our headquarters was this good. Even if our opponents were in greater numbers, we would be able to defend it.”

Fearless laughed and said, “Everything is with costs and benefits. We have to do this because we are small in numbers. But your guild has so many people, would you be willing to be cooped up in your headquarters?”

To fight with smaller numbers naturally requires the help of terrain and strategies. However, the Sanguine Alliance was a super-big guild. No matter what guild they were against, they would not be in smaller numbers. Thus, such terrains would be of minimal help. After all, while others were unable to enter, they would also be unable to leave.

“Rebirth”‘s headquarters design was very rational.

If the headquarters was attacked and wasn’t breached within 60 minutes, then the attacking side would have failed. However, the defending side also wouldn’t be rewarded. At the very most, it could be considered a draw.

Only forcing the opponent into retreat or complete decimation could be considered true victory. Not only would there be a reward, but there would also be war reparations and a system notification. It was truly beautiful to be able to deal such material and mental damage to the opponents.

It would a huge tragedy for a huge guild like Sanguine Alliance to be cooped up in their headquarters with a limited ability to attack.

Sanguine Warflag contemplated, “That’s true. We have 500 people here and it wouldn’t be easy for all of us to go out.”

Fearless, “Indeed. Our headquarters can only accommodate 500 people. If everyone leaves and we allow more people to transfer in, where would people go to respawn when they die?”

“This…” Sanguine Warflag was momentarily stunned.

Sanguine Warflag had really never considered such a situation. After all, a guild like Quan Zhen Sect was truly too unique.

The initial capacity of a low-grade headquarters was 500. If it was upgraded, the greatest capacity of a low-grade headquarters would be 2000.

As for the capacity of medium-grade and high-grade headquarters, there would be no need to talk about it. By that time, the capacity would be in the hundred thousands to millions.

Typically, the first things that guilds do after obtaining a headquarter would be to complete quests, obtain contribution points, promote residency, fortify the defenses and raise the level of the headquarter’s gate and capacity.

However, with the wilfulness of the bunch of people from Quan Zhen Sect, it would already be amazing for them to keep their contribution points from falling into negative… There’s no need to talk about anything else.

Thus, such a situation could only happen for Quan Zhen Sect.

“Won’t they respawn within the city’s respawn point?” Sanguine Warflag scratched his head and asked.

Fearless, “The system states that players that die would return to the nearest possible respawn point…”

Upon hearing this, Sanguine Warflag jolted, “You’re saying… Our people would respawn in the opponent’s respawn point?”

“En! That’s very possible.” Fearless nodded. From the looks of it, Sanguine Warflag wasn’t a fool.

“The f*ck, that sounds interesting.” Sanguine Warflag was excited as he thought of this idea.

According to common knowledge, when attacking a headquarters, there would be a temporary respawn point generated behind the attacking side. If the defending players could appear at the back of the attacking side, then they would be able to surround the attacking side from two sides.

Of course, when one holds the absolute advantage in numbers, then they would be able to camp around the respawn point…

A temporary respawn point was not representative of a safe zone. Even if the opponent had a respawn rate of once per minute, the remaining time would be enough to kill them several tens of times.

With Fearless’s personality, he definitely had such a plot from the very start…

As he thought of this, Sanguine Warflag broke out in cold sweat and he thanked his past self for not making an enemy out of this person. This person was far too vicious.

“So, we will now send people to their deaths and you will bring more people in. Then, we will give them some excitement,” Fearless grinned and said.

On Feng Yun Guild’s side, all guild members had already entered the battlefield. There were no empty spots.

This was very normal. These people were paid to go to work… The rallying power of money was far stronger than the power of brotherhood.

Inferno War Reverent and Feng Yun Tu Bian watched as their men entered the battlefield. The shadow caused by Wang Yu’s shenanigans had dissipated significantly.

“That b*stard won’t come again, right…” Inferno War Reverent rubbed his right wrist and reassured himself.

Feng Yun Tu Bian, “Just now, we didn’t have enough people, so he was able to break open a gap. Now, we have so many people. If he dares to come, he won’t be able to return.”

“Why do they only have 500 people?” Inferno War Reverent looked at the battlefield situation and asked in wonderment.

Feng Yun Tu Bian said with disdain, “Cheh, this tiny headquarters can only accommodate 500 people. However, I am surprised that these fellas were able to find helpers.”

“They probably spent money to hire mercenaries,” Inferno War Reverent guessed.

In the game, there was the hire function. In the mercenary hall, players could issue hire missions and hire players from other guilds to help them in battle. Since Quan Zhen Sect could contest with Daybreak Studios, it naturally wasn’t poor. Thus, it was within reason that it could hire 500 people to help them in battle.

As the two were speaking, battle had erupted at the headquarters gate.

Fearless led the members of Quan Zhen Sect into battle. Their equipment were removed and they didn’t use any skills nor attacks as they rushed into Feng Yun Guild’s formation.

In a single exchange, Fearless and co. were sent to be respawned. At the same time, Sanguine Alliance’s men also threw themselves into battle. The outcome was the same: they were thoroughly killed by Feng Yun Guild.

“Ohh? These fellas are trying to charge out?” Inferno War Reverent looked at the white light rising in the battlefield and laughed with satisfaction, “We can’t go in and they think that they can come out?”

Terrain benefits were mutual. Quan Zhen Sect was able to defend against hundreds of people, and naturally, it wouldn’t be hard for the thousands of people to defend against them.

Feng Yun Tu Bian saw the players from Quan Zhen Sect send themselves to their deaths and said amusedly, “They only have 500 people. Actually, there’s nothing wrong with letting them out.”

Because of the terrain, the battle would result in a draw. Feng Yun Guild’s superior numbers wouldn’t be able to reveal its value.

If the people inside were let out to the spacious plains, then a head-on battle between 2000 people and 500 people would be better for them.

“Not bad, I also had the same thoughts!” Inferno War Reverent snickered and issued the order, “Loosen the entrance and let them out.”

Upon this order, the Feng Yun Guild members hastily retreated by a few tens of meters, creating a distance between them and the entrance of the valley.

Sanguine Warflag saw this and sent a private message to Fearless, “They have retreated…”

Fearless, “Don’t care about them. First, send half of your men and leave another half to push.”

“Alright!” After receiving this news, Sanguine Warflag immediately issued orders in his guild chat.

In the following five minutes, the casualty count from Quan Zhen Sect continued to rise. On the other hand, Feng Yun Guild’s casualty count remained at zero. Feng Yun Tu Bian soon noticed that something was not right.

“Eh? Why do I feel that something is amiss?”

“What’s amiss? These weak chicken cannot even withstand a single blow from us!” Inferno War Reverent was knee-deep in the elation of zero-deaths.

Feng Yun Tu Bian, “Don’t you think that they are respawning a little too quickly?”
