Chapter 278: Rise in the Status 3

There were a total of six people gathered in front of the castle at Ian's appointed time .

Among them, Remir and Hoonie were the users that Ian had directly contacted, and upon Ian's request, the other four were high ranked users that were recruited by Herz .

What was funny was that there were three of the best top-ranked users in this party .

First was the highest ranked user in the summoner cla.s.s—Ian . Then Remir who was the highest ranking mage, and then Hoonie, who was unofficially the highest ranking warlock . Lastly was 'Levya' the highest ranked priest who was recently accepted into the guild by Herz .

This was surely a super luxurious party .

And the three remaining users had the skills to be ranked in the top 100, and there was no option but to accept them into this party .

“By the way, why hasn't Ian Hyung here yet? There are only 2 minutes left before the appointed time…”

Herz responded to Hoonie who was muttering under his breath .

“Kid, did you ever see Ian come late to any appointed mission? Who knows when he'll pop out like a sharp knife?”

Herz had always shown remarkable growth in his level, he was currently ranked in the top 80 to 90 in the official ranking .

Even then, Ian had hesitated to include Herz into his party .

Though Fiolan was more powerful compared to Herz, she had decided to stay back and defend the Central Continent at the Pyro where the battlefield was almost insanely chaotic .

Fiolan was the commander of that place, so she had a lot of responsibility on her shoulders .

On top of that, Ian already had a trump card, the top-ranked Mage Remir who filled the Mage position .

“Well… that is right . ”

Hoonie just went along with what Herz said .

Hoonie wasn't a guild member yet . It was almost as if he didn't belong to a guild, and Herz was the guild master .

There was a reason as to why Hoonie hadn't become a guild member .

It was because there was no vacant position in the Lotus Guild .

Of course, the incompetent and skill lacking guild members could have been removed, but according to Herz, that wasn't the proper way of running a guild .

There were a lot of users who had been waiting to hand over their form of admission into the Lotus Guild .

Herz was scheduled to receive all the forms once the Lotus Guild was promoted into a great guild in the country after pa.s.sing a certain criteria .

From the Great Plain, the maximum number of guild members that could be recruited would be increased by several hundred, so there would be enough room .

“Hmm, This is what I'm nervous about…”

Listening to the mumbling of Remir, Levya asked for the reason .

“What are you nervous about, Remir?”

As Levya inquired, Remir had a bit of twisted look .

“No, I was just talking to myself, you know… myself . By the way, how did Levia get into this party?”

Levya answered by scratching her head .

Levya was really beautiful, but there was something that was dull about her .

“Well… I am in need of Ian's help to complete a very important quest . And if I help Ian out, maybe he'll help me out in my quest too… well, he will help out right?”

“Uhm… I think so…”

It wasn't clear, but Remir thought of her as a strange person . She started to use mind control on herself .

She felt that it was necessary to use mind control especially if she was going to hunt with Ian .

“Inner peace…”

But then .

The nerve-racking appointed time came, and the air in front of the six users started to change .

Woong- Woong-!

Hoonie—who was the first one to notice the changes in the atmosphere—was fl.u.s.tered and pulled out his wand .

“What, what is this? Is a new wave starting here too!?”

Looking at the scared expression on Hoonie's face, Herz shook his head and answered .

“Ian is opening the portal, just wait and see . ”

Once Herz was done talking, everyone looked at the distorted air in front of them with intrigued looks, and after 10 seconds, a blue light s.h.i.+ned as the portal began to open .

Weeing-!

From the portal came out a man whose body was completely filled with mud .

“Hey yo!”

It was none other than Ian .

He originally planned to keep an eye on the dimensional beads until they get charged, but he decided to hunt for a while till the beads were charged .

Ian looked at all the users that gathered before him and smiled brightly .

“Wow, you guys are all here . Thank you for coming . You'll all be blessed for this act . ”

The moment she saw Ian, Remir knew that something felt off .

'Huh… that monster asked us all to rest, but it seems like he had been hunting till now . '

Ian saw Levya and reached out his hand towards her .

“h.e.l.lo, I am Ian . I don't have a good memory, but… are you a member of our guild?”

Levya smiled at Ian's question and shook her head . Herz who was right behind her laughed and spoke out on her behalf .

“It was Levya who had helped our guild a few weeks ago during the Dimensional War . She was the highest ranked Priest . ”

“Oh… is that so…?”

Though he couldn't remember it that much, Ian—who didn't show much interest on highest ranked users—seemed to remember something about a certain Levya .

And if she was the same person that Ian had thought, then she would certainly be of tremendous help to this party .

'Nice, I think I can collect around 6000 points from this party . '

Ian extended his hand towards the direction of the portal .

“Okay then, you can all go into the portal now . Hurry up, we only have 2 minutes till the portal closes . ”

As Ian had stated the obvious, all the users quickly started to move into the portal, and Ian also went back into the portal .

And as all the users had moved into the portal, around a second later the portal's entrance started to diminish and then it disappeared into thin air .

“Okay, So let me tell you the plan . ”

Ian had successfully brought six people excluding him into the Southern Island of Buju .

Ian had been working on what he should say to the party members he invited and about the quest sharing .

He had given out a detailed explanation about the quest, but to conclude what Ian had said he just wanted them to help him hunt .

“So to put it simply…We need to hunt down as many monsters as we possibly can, as soon as possible . ”

“Hmm…”

“It takes about a week for the Dimensional Beads to charge, and I need to acc.u.mulate a total of 6000 citizen value points in the Empire . ”

Herz—who had listened to Ian's explanation—asked something important .

“So we should collect the citizen value points and raise the status in the Mauryan Empire? And, does it have any advantages?”

Ian nodded and answered Herz's question .

“In order for you to raise your status, you will first need to complete a quest that will give you a citizen ID… we don't have time for that stuff . Apart from me, you all won't be able to raise your citizen value . However, it doesn't mean that the points you acc.u.mulate are worthless . You won't have a citizen value, but you will be able to exchange those points and good items in return . ”

“Aha…”

After a while, Ian added a few more additional information . Remir—who was listening until now—was curious about something .

“By the way Ian . ”

“Yes?”

“Then are we…”

“Go on . ”

“Do we not have an option to go back if you don't open the portal?”

They all looked towards Ian to know the answer, and Ian's mouth slightly tilted up .

“Bingo…!”

“OMG…”

Looking at Remir's desperate expression, Ian added another word .

“So, let's hurry and do it as fast as we can . After collecting 6000 citizen value points, it is my responsibility to send you all back whether you like it or not . Well, you all are important users who are needed to stop the monster invasion . ”

Remir rolled her eyes and spoke .

“We are fortunate that you understand that . ”

Ian replied .

“Now, let's go out, shall we? There are quite a few dungeons that will be of your interest . ”

Hoonie who was still there asked Ian .

“How many average level dungeons are here hyung?”

Ian calmly replied .

“Well… around 350 to 400”

Everyone's faces started to glow with what Ian said, except for Remir and Levya .

Remir wasn't so surprised as she had previously hunted level 300 monsters alongside Ian, and Levia seemed to have no idea on what was about to happen .

But Herz was fl.u.s.tered and stutteringly asked Ian .

“Yah, isn't… isn't it dangerous?”

Ian lifted his finger and responded .

“No, no . Our level is more than enough . If I can coordinate my movements in the right manner then I can attack a level 450 monster instead of a level 350 one . ”

“And from tomorrow or the day after, I will go into higher level dungeons, so make your hearts strong . ”

“… huh… what…?”

Ian ignored Herz's mumbling and began to move towards the dungeon .

And the moment they all entered the dungeon, the eyes of Remir, Hoonie and Herz changed in an instant .

And just like that Ian's party began to hunt like Spartans .

“Hoonie, Walk across a wide slope and stay back! Death Knight manage your vitality! Remir be prepared to cast your wide area spell!”

“Kay Hyung . ”

“Yes, Ian . ”

Party play, as the number of people in the party increased, the more difficult it was to control the members .

Surely, it wasn't much difficult to find a position that would suit a member, but the kind of party play that Ian wanted wasn't such a basic one .

'Wow, I never thought of the Revenge of the Dead, but Hoonie definitely has some amazing game sense . '

However, Ian's party wasn't a regular party .

It was a party that literally had top-ranked players that gathered to help another ranked player, and the ranked players instinctively knew what they were supposed to do without receiving any instructions from Ian .

They were individually outstanding players .

Ian's party had only been hunting for 30 minutes, and as Ian expected their teamwork was perfect .

'Well, this isn't so frustrating . I thought that Herz would be a burden to the group . '

Ian's party consisted of a total of 7 members .

However, if their powers and skills were all combined, it could be compared to a party of 70 to 80 members, this almost looked as if a small war was taking place .

“Ian, it looks like a boss, over there!”

Levya who was standing in the front and casting heal had shouted over to Ian .

Ian turned his head and nodded in agreement .

There indeed was a giant and it had a golden hood, it definitely looked like a dungeon boss .

'I came into the easiest dungeon and yet… they all seem to be much skilled than I had thought . '

The fact that the dungeon boss had appeared means that over 95% of the dungeon had been cleared, and the clearance rate of the dungeon was much faster than what Ian had been expecting .

In particular, Ian was very impressed with the Levya's abilities .

Till now, Ian never had the opportunity to hunt alongside a top-ranked priest cla.s.s .

A few priests did help Ian in the Pyro temple, but he wasn't able to experience their full abilities as it was a hectic and ma.s.sive battle .

And Levya a first ranked priest, had a whole different level of control when compared to them .

'I don't remember witnessing an Over Heal before . '

Average ranked priests tend to waste a lot of skill in worthless situations .

The more members a party had, the more responsibility the priests would have, and if they use spirits without possessing any skill, then it could create a much higher chance of making a mistake rather than helping out their allies .

But Levya was different .

She didn't waste any of her energy on basic recovery skills, and she was using perfected recovery skills and was executing them perfectly .

Though Ian was the greatest when it came to coordination and control, Levya's control was on an amazing level as well .

'I guess we can do a riskier play . '

Ian called Halli; he climbed onto its back and pulled out the Judgement of the Spirit King .

Till now he had mainly played in the back-lines of the battle by commanding and supporting the others, but Ian was ready to get aggressive from this point on .

Anyone could feel that they could fight with the fullest of their abilities without thinking twice if they were in this party .
