MMORPG: The Elementalist Chapter 547 - The “Three Great Evils” of Netherspirit's Claw—Bypassing to Centipede Cavern?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As more and more Tier 5 Summoners appeared, their "Ally Summon" (the ability to summon their teammates and comrades in) was also now more known by many. As it happens, Summoners were now getting more recognition and enjoyed better status amongst the game's community. And thus, they were increasingly included by various organizations in battles, ambushes and even treasure hunting.

The three clans—Fallen Angels, Bauhinia Clan, and Violent Army Clan were having a hard time defending the entrance earlier due to the Summoners' "Ally Summon". Two Tier 5 Summoners from Netherspirit's Claw suddenly activated a warp portal a few meters away from the valley's entrance when over a dozen Tier 5 Champions, clad in Dark Gold and legendary equipment, lined up from the portal.

In an instant, twenty-five Tier 5 Champions from Netherspirit's Claw appeared out of nowhere and confronted the ten guards at the valley entrance. A few guards noticed something was off and immediately informed the others in the valley.

"Hey…"

"Hey, stop!!"

Although the Netherspirit's Claw team swooshed down the valley and closely passed by the guards one by one, the guards did not dare to touch these Tier 5 armed-to-the-teeth Champions. They were from Netherspirit's Claw; naturally much better armed than them. If the guards were to lay a finger on these Champions, it would be them that kicks the bucket.

"Don't give chase. Hold your positions. Don't let any more people in." Violet Orchid immediately gave the order to the guards, her most rational one so far, saving their lives…

The Mutated Lich's howling had already attracted many players' curiosity and attention. Netherspirit's Claw was probably heading to the valley to check out what's going on and were most probably were not here to attack the three clans. If she allowed the guards to attack them, it would only muddle up the situation more.

They could leave the intruding Netherspirit's Claw's men to Dinosaurcerer and Homme Fatale.

"Hmph!"

After passing through the entrance, Netherspirit's Claw's men saw that the ten guards did not give chase, still holding on their positions. Some of them could not help but let out a smirk. "Oh, I thought Fallen Angels, Bauhinia, and Violent Army Clan were some overpowered bunch? Heh, who could have thought they were this much of a pussy? They did not even dare move…"

"Hahaha… well, the last time they were taking on the Order of Eight Gods and Holy Clan. Those are just small fries. But we're from the main clan—the Netherspirit's Claw. Of course they would be afraid. If it would be weird if they did attack us."

Suddenly, a stern voice swept over in the party chat, scolding the smirking morons in the party, "… unless you can defeat Homme Fatale and that new Aquamancer, I suggest you zip it!"

Snowmelt's cold stern voice stopped his underlings from talking further. Being second-in-command in the clan, Snowmelt's reputation and strength were only below that of Netherclaw's. However, he had more influence and reputation than Dark Dragon.

"When we reach our destination, you had better keep your mouth shut. If any of you tries to provoke the Fallen Angels, I'll slay you first!"

Snowmelt was stern with his men as they advanced further into the valley. Their objective was to find out what was happening inside the Death Valley, not picking fights with anybody.

There were various Champions from Fallen Angels, Bauhinia, Violent Army clan. Even though the "Three Great Evils" from the Netherspirit's Claw had entered the Death Valley, they would still need to exercise caution so that they would not clash with the three clans.

However, as they moved into the valley, they saw how empty the Death Valley was… and after discovering the various corpses of the Undead along the way, Snowmelt could not help but feel surprised.

It had only been twenty minutes since they first got news about the three clan's covert operation in the Death Valley when everything in the valley had been already eliminated. There were at least thirty-plus Bosses and at least four Tier 6 Liches… how did they kill those so quickly?

That speed… It was unthinkable!

"Herber! When we start seeing anyone from the Fallen Angels, activate the warp portal!"

"Understood!"

Snowmelt was content with Herber's reply. At least there was one member who was as level-headed. There were at least two powerful Tier 5 veteran Champions in there, and it would be impossible for Snowmelt to butt heads with every single champion from the three clans. This would result in a total defeat if that were to happen.

As Snowmelt was deep in his thoughts, a few swooshes of noise were heard…

Suddenly, a dozen men appeared before him and his team.

Looking at them, Snowmelt felt a string of uneasiness and doubt lingering in his mind. These were all Elementalists and Summoners. There was even a Radiant Priest among them.

This was out of his expectation. Shouldn't they be fighting with the unknown Boss at the moment? And yet, Black Rock, Dinosaurcerer, Apocalypse and the others were all here??

"What a line up."

They were all strong skillful fighters that were well-known in the game community. The first wave that was standing in their way completely surprised Snowmelt.

"Herber!"

A Summoner hurriedly drew a hexagram on the ground with his foot as soon as he heard Snowmelt calling his name…

As Dinosaurcerer and his gang rushed towards the entrance, they immediately met with the Netherspirit's Claw's team. He now understood why the ten guards they stationed at the entrance allowed these intruders in.

The five players that were leading the team had full sets of legendary gear! As for the men behind, some of them had a mix of legendary gear and some of them in Dark Gold equipment… if it's equipment they were comparing, only Dinosaurcerer and Black Rock were their equals.

And as they encountered the Netherspirit's Claw, a Tier 5 Bowmaster frowned and reminded everyone in a low voice, "That Elementalist… the leader is Snowmelt—the second-in-command of Netherspirit's Claw. The other four leading ones are Field Commanders."

"Snowmelt? The Vice Clan Leader?"

Dinosaurcerer's eyes were filled with fiery rage, fueled by a rising fighting spirit…

"So what?"

Dinosaurcerer smirked and stepped forward, raising his voice, "Prepare to die if you want to go in further!"

"Hmph, what a braggart."

Snowmelt peeked at the battle that was raging on behind Dinosaurcerer's team. Yet, the battle was blocked by the latter's Winged members. In the meantime, there was also a huge Deathfiend Spider and countless swarms of small black spiders appearing in his view.

That was Dinosaurcerer's signature attack—the Explosive Venomspiders.

"Child's play."

Snowmelt was not intimidated by Dinosaurcerer at all. One of the men who was standing next to him smirked and summoned a huge Blazing Hawk in the sky. As it let out a piercing screech, the fiery bird shot a Blazing Mortar at the Explosive Venomspiders…

Boooom!!!

It was as though a Molotov cocktail had hit a building… A huge ten-meter long Blazing Rampart spread out and held the spiders behind the fire. It was as though a warning to Dinosaurcerer that they were not afraid of his stupid spiders. These creatures might be able to scare off the casual players but they were nothing in the eyes of Netherspirit's Claw.

"Guys, let's take them out!"

Enranged, Dinosaurcerer commanded his fellow teammates…

Qin Ruo had only recently defeated Dark Dragon. Now the second-in-command had dared come over and pick a fight with them. What a joke!

However, the men from Nethersprit's Claw continued to advance via air as Snowmelt spoke, "Pardon me. We are merely passer-bys. We only want to head to the Centipede Cavern, and we are not here to fight. Please make way."

"Fuck!"

"What a load of bull! A full team of Tier 5 Winged Champions are on the way to fight a mere Tier 4 Overlord Boss in the Centipede Cavern? Who are you fooling?!"

These slimy bastards wanted to use this lame excuse to bypass the defenses of the three clans. They probably would "head to the Centipede Cavern" and then turn to disrupt their operation…

However, Dinosaurcerer and his gang had to restrain themselves from attacking…

The Netherspirits' Claw had informed them that they had no hostile intention, and it was also true that the Centipede Cavern was located inside the Death Valley. If they were to attack them, this would provide a good excuse for Netherspirit's Claw to pick a fight with the three clans and disrupt their operation in killing the Mutated Lich.

Dinosaurcerer was not experienced in these online game politics and he could not find any way to refute Snowmelt's claim.

As Dinosaurcerer and his gang watched Netherspirit's Claw's men venture another thirty meters into the valley, a cold voice bellowed behind them, "If Netherspirit's Claw insists to intrude into our business… then I'm afraid you all have to die here."

Snowmelt recognized that voice. Even if he did not recall the name instantly, he was able to do so after seeing the Electromancer rising above Dinosaurcerer from behind while showing off his Legendary gear.

Homme Fatale!

Shocked by this, Snowmelt immediately ordered his men to stop advancing.

Another darn surprise!

Snowmelt did not think that Homme Fatale, one of the strongest fighters amongst the three clans, was not assigned to fight that unknown Boss…

Shit!

Snowmelt could not help but curse in silence. And he was surprised to see the line-up in front of him. These were, as far as he knew, the main forces of the three clans. If the main forces were here, then who was fighting the unknown Boss? Were there any more players from their ranks that were strong enough to fight a Boss stronger than a Lich?

Snowmelt quickly pulled himself together and replied, "Ah, Homme Fatale, my brother. I'm very sorry for intruding like this. But we really are attending an urgent business and we needed to get into the Centipede Cavern the soonest we could. Don't worry, we are merely passing by. We won't be causing you any trouble."

As Snowmelt finished his words, another firm, strong voice sounded from Snowmelt's team, "Hahahaha… Homme Fatale. Don't worry. You have my word. I, Netherclaw, and my brethren here would never cause any problems for you. We are also merely passing by…"

The voice sounded familiar. Homme Fatale felt a slight jitter in his wings as he heard this voice! As he raised his head to peek from behind Snowmelt searching for the voice, he saw two figures walking out of the warp portal that Herber had constructed earlier…

It was Netherclaw and Dark Dragon! The clan leader and the field commander of Netherspirit's Claw!

The Claw, The Snow, and The Dragon. The "Three Great Evils" of Netherspirit's Claw had now all assembled together in the Death Valley!
