Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 212 Chapter211-The Astonishment of the Two Guild Leaders (1st update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)

The leaders of two of the top ten premier guilds globally sat before John, exchanging glances, momentarily at a loss for words.

Through John's introduction, they had come to understand the true caliber of the AGHHO assassin organization.

They recognized it as a terrifying force they couldn't dare provoke.

But judging from John's tone, it seemed as if they were just inconsequential players.

Aside from their deep concealment, they didn't seem all that powerful.

Adam pondered for a moment and cautiously asked, "May I ask, Brother Galewind, what was the power level of those AGHHO core members you eliminated?"

John thought for a brief moment, somewhat unsure, and said, "If I recall correctly, they should be around the two to three hundred levels? I've forgotten the exact rank, but it should be within that range..."

Adam and Blue Sea fell silent simultaneously.

Two to three hundred levels...

That was a level they wouldn't dare dream of reaching in the near future.

Why did it sound so casual coming from John's lips?

John looked at the two with an almost teasing smile, and remarked nonchalantly, "Why? Do you both feel that AGHHO is too mighty for you to tangle with?"

Catching the jest in John's tone, Adam and Blue Sea hastened to clarify their stance.

"Brother Galewind, you jest. It's merely a force within a game world. No matter how powerful, can they really threaten our real lives?"

John just smiled faintly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Blue Sea, driven by curiosity, inquired, "How did you, Brother Galewind, come into conflict with such a native NPC force?"

John calmly responded, "Some old foes of mine, who lacked the capability to confront me directly, resorted to employing these high-leveled assassins from AGHHO, seeking vengeance upon me..."

Adam and Blue Sea's eyes narrowed, their voices filled with righteous indignation, "Who are these adversaries? They must be players, right? Brother Galewind, don't hesitate to share their names. Should our guilds encounter these individuals, we'll ensure they meet their end..."

It was evident, at this moment, Adam and Blue Sea were genuinely upset.

It was rare for them to utter such cold words, especially in front of John.

John simply smiled, dismissing the concern with ease. "Don't worry about it. Those petty individuals aren't worth your trouble. I can handle them myself..."

"The reason I've asked for your help in locating AGHHO has to do with a quest I recently received... Anyway, it's now a do-or-die situation between me and AGHHO. Fortunately, I've made a new friend recently who harbors a deep-seated grudge against AGHHO. As the saying goes, 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend'..."

Though John's words were somewhat vague, Adam and Blue Sea managed to glean the crux of the matter.

John's request for their help in finding AGHHO was likely related to this "new friend."

John paused, then continued, "Do you recall, on our way back from Sunset Mountain, when I had to leave due to some urgent matter?"

Adam and Blue Sea nodded in unison.

They vividly remembered the circumstances.

While most of the group had already returned to the Werewolf Ancient Village, John had suddenly mentioned a small errand and left the party alone.

Blue Sea, as if struck by a realization, exclaimed, "Could it be that during that time..."

John nodded, casually stating, "Exactly. The reason I had you believe and depart was that I had detected AGHHO assassins trailing us..."

"There were six core members of AGHHO following us then. Each one ranked within the top hundred of the organization, elite assassins. If I'd involved you, it would've put you in unnecessary danger... That's why I asked you to take Emma and leave first..."

Blue Sea and Adam exchanged glances, a hint of lingering fear evident in their eyes.

Assassins of level two to three hundred, and six of them at that...

"If they had launched an assassination attack then, I'm afraid that of all those present, no one could have escaped, except for John..."

"Was it at that moment, Galewind, that you killed all of them?" Blue Sea exclaimed, his voice tinged with disbelief to the point of almost distorting.

John offered a slight smile, and though he didn't nod, his expression spoke volumes.

Blue Sea and Adam plopped down onto the couch, hastily taking a large gulp of their drinks to cover their astonishment.

To single-handedly, effortlessly eliminate six top-tier assassins of levels two to three hundred... Just what kind of terrifying strength did one need to possess to achieve that?

Blue Sea and Adam felt their heads spin.

Every encounter with John seemed to shatter their previous understanding of the world. John increasingly appeared as an unscalable peak in their eyes.

Especially for Blue Sea, who had known John for many years.

In past games, he merely considered John as a commendably skilled player.

At the very least, he was within Blue Sea's understanding.

But ever since the launch of Godslayer, after Blue Sea had thrown himself completely into it, the Galewind he knew seemed transformed.

It was as if the man before him was favored by the Godslayer game system, appearing without any trace of growth and instantly standing at the pinnacle...

With a wry smile, Blue Sea shook his head, feeling overwhelmed by the deluge of information and needing a moment to process.

"If you feel you'd rather not provoke AGHHO, I won't push you. It's understandable," John said with a light chuckle.

Without a moment's hesitation, Adam and Blue Sea immediately clarified their stance, "Don't worry. It's rare that we have a chance to assist Galewind. We'll spare no effort in doing so."

John nonchalantly played with the wine glass in his hand, responding casually, "Relax. I'm asking for your help merely to harness the power of your guild. "

"In my eyes, these AGHHO members aren't really a threat. It's just that tracking them down has proven quite challenging... "

"With the numbers in your guild, just keep an eye out on a regular basis. If you come across any information about AGHHO, refrain from rashly approaching them on your own."

Adam and Blue Sea nodded in unison, their expressions grave.

Facing an overpowering enemy, a single person can't withstand the challenge.

They understood this and would ensure that their guild members adhered to it.

John might disregard AGHHO due to his immense strength, but other players couldn't afford such luxury...

With a gentle clap of his hands, John rose to his feet. "Let's focus on the matter at hand and make the best use of our time today. "

"I suggest we head to the Thousand Streams Cave in Storm City. As for the AGHHO matter, it won't be resolved overnight. "

"Those rat-like foes are accustomed to lurking in the shadows. Tracing them isn't as straightforward as it seems."

Adam and Blue Sea looked up, somewhat taken aback, "Galewind, are you suggesting we head to the Thousand Streams Cave now to search for the Aqua Blue Flower?"

John offered a faint smile, "No time like the present. Let's address this minor matter sooner rather than later."

Adam quickly summoned the attendant at the door to settle the bill.

Afterward, the trio promptly departed from the Silver Manor.

Given the ample assortment of consumable items in both Adam and Blue Sea's inventory, there was no need for additional provisions.

On Blue Sea's suggestion, the three of them headed straight to the Mercenary Hall, curious to see if there were any quests related to Storm City.

Blue Sea's thinking was straightforward: since their destination was already Storm City, whether they herded one sheep or two didn't matter much. Might as well take advantage of having an expert like John around and pick up some quests from the Storm City region while they were at it...

John noticed Blue Sea's little plan but chose not to call it out.

As the trio made their way into the Mercenary Hall, they instantly caused a stir.

The hall was as bustling as ever, but at that moment, every player's gaze was irresistibly drawn to the three.

"Good heavens, am I seeing right? Aren't those the guild leaders of Genesis Guild and Blue Sea Guild?"

"Absolutely, those are the two big shots..."

"Why would they team up and show up here?"

"Could there be some top-tier quest about to drop? Maybe these two guilds got wind of it beforehand?"

"But who's the guy standing between the two major guild leaders, commanding even their deference?"

"I don't recognize him. Maybe he's some influential figure in real life, trying the game for some excitement?"

"You're joking, right? Both these guild leaders are of renowned heritage in the real world. Who could possibly outshine them?"

"From the looks of his equipment, there's nothing exceptional. Except, that mask... it's rather unsightly."

"Did you notice that tattered cloak on his back? Doesn't it seem familiar?"

"It kind of reminds me of that guy, Galewind, who pummeled the Dawn Guild leader, Kingserp, not too long ago."

"You might be onto something, really..."

The murmurs and discussions among the players grew louder, their eyes fixated on John, Adam, and Blue Sea who had just entered.

Among the top ten premier guilds, Blue Sea and Adam were probably the most frequently recognized guild leaders.

Their guilds were on the cusp of being deemed the strongest of the top ten, and they were among the earliest to achieve a level four ranking.

With their dominant, assertive styles, they never bothered to mask their identities.

Being recognized by players was only to be expected.
