MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks

Chapter 80 - Patrolling Soldier

Panda Novel

There were not a lot of members in the Dream Guild, but this guild had a specialty. When it came to recruitment, they look for quality over quantity. They absolutely would not accept anyone other than the elite. It was completely different from the Star Fire Guild’s recruitment policies.

In his past life when he was being hunted everywhere, the only reason he managed to join the Dream Guild was due to Li Yi being acquainted with that female dwarf commander, Shangguan Bailu.

Of course, Li Yi was still not a cheater back then. It was only during the whole fiasco with Wind-on-Snow when he started to change.

However, the one thing that constantly ate away at Li Yi’s conscience was that when he was being hunted down by countless guilds, Shangguan Bailu was firm in her stance that he was not a cheater.

Then… Shangguan Bailu was cheated by him. A full set of the Song of the Undead (Necromancy Legendary Equipment) was turned into materials, leaving her with an unmatched nickname.

Shangguan Idiot.

Facing this Miss Shangguan, he felt extremely remorseful.

In Li Yi’s heart, maybe because so much time had already passed, he could not even… He could not even hate Wind-on-Snow anymore.

Pushing responsibility onto others was very easy. In his past life, when Li Yi started his career as a serial cheater, he thought the same way. He just shifted the blame and responsibility towards Wind-on-Snow, and in the end, he was already past the point of no return.

Word of Li Yi and the Dream Guild combining forces to take on the Barren Lord spread like wildfire. This time, even if Li Yi wanted to keep it on the down-low, it was not possible.

Star Fire believed that Dream Guild and Li Yi had already negotiated this in secret. Otherwise, how would he be allowed to lead a party to fight a world boss immediately after leaving his last guild? Dream Guild was not the only guild that was interested in taking down the Barren Lord. Star Fire Guild had already sent their own people in an attempt, unbeknownst to the public since it was ultimately a failed attempt.

The God Creator Guild had also finally understood why Li Yi was so resolute in not joining the God Creators. Turns out, he already had determined his next destination…

Suddenly, rumors started popping out everywhere. Even Li Yi’s exit from Dark Empire was discussed as if it was a conspiracy.

When Li Yi heard of these gossips and rumors, he secretly could not help but be impressed by the power of these rumors. These rumors spread by word-of-mouth and eventually, this small thing had turned into a globally observed phenomenon.

There were also a lot of people from the Dark Empire that started feeling disappointed in Li Yi.

These people also left, along with Li Yi, but now that Li Yi had gotten a deal with the Dream Guild, he did not even contact them. They were understandably frustrated by all of this.

“Dark Wing can’t have done this? How could he…” Three Goat Pig Pig did not want to believe the claims.

“Three Goat, we followed you in quitting the guild. You told us that if we follow Dark Wing we would have more opportunities, so now what? That guy is now kissing up to the Dream Guild’s *ss, he probably already forgot about us.”

“Don’t rush, don’t rush. I’ll contact him now.”

In reality, Thee Goat Pig Pig did not share with Li Yi his plans of leaving the guild with him. Even now, Li Yi still had no idea that they left the guild…

“You guys left the guild?”

Three Goat replied with a sour tone, “Yeah. I thought you were going to start a guild yourself, so I left the guild thinking I could join you. Who could have predicted that you would just go up and join Dream.”

“I didn’t join Dream, I’m only helping them out for a little while.”

“In other words, you’re quite chummy with the people over at Dream? Alright, let’s change the subject then. I have more than twenty people here without a guild right now, can you see if you can pull some strings and bring us into Dream?”

“Dream’s recruitment practices are quite strict. Moreover, I don’t have anything to do with them. Even if I did, they would still require you to go through a preliminary test before you can join.”

“Sigh, why is it so troublesome…”

“You guys should go back to the Dark Empire. Even though their reputation had dropped a bit, their guild benefits are still top tier.”

“No way, we can’t head back now or we’ll be the laughingstock of the guild. Anyways, we had decided to follow you, so you just remember that.”

“…”

It was not just Three Goar Pig Pig, there were also a bunch of people that Li Yi had never noticed who messaged him. Some were people who had run dungeons with him before and some who had only just heard of him. But all of them, without exception, were asking to be in a guild with him.

“Brother Yi, why aren’t we making a guild?” Chen Yang had asked Li Yi this numerous times.

“It’s a drag!”

No matter how many times he was asked, Li Yi would always answer with this phrase.

Being a guild master was no easy task, there was a bunch of stuff to take care of in a guild. From development to logistics, and even recruitment, all of these were the responsibility of a guild master. Just thinking about it was a drag. Especially for a player like Li Yi without a huge stack in his wallet as a backup, how would he even be able to balance taking care of a guild and grinding levels at the same time?

Li Yi asked Chen Yang, “Why don’t you create it, and I’ll join your guild.”

“It’s a drag!”

“Screw off!”

Li Yi returned to Shattered Frost City and routinely bought out some cheap goods at the Auction House. Then, he put the Fury Potion he just refined up for auction.

The Fire Resistance Potion was still selling like hotcakes, but the prices of the materials had risen to the point of absurdity. If you buy them from the Auction House to refine it yourself, if you fail even two times out of ten, you would still make a huge loss.

It was not worth it. Furthermore, at this point, Li Yi had no longer needed to use Fire Resistance Potions to grind his mastery anymore. Currently, the best way for him to grind his mastery and earn money was through Fury Potions.

Beginner-Level Apothecarist and Intermediate-Level Harvester, regarding these two lifestyle classes, he would not dare to say that his speed was the best in this server. But if he claimed to be the second best, there would not be anyone who would claim to be the best.

He had far surpassed the average player’s speed, this was the benefit of being reborn.

After doing a round of bandit-raiding quests, Li Yi achieved his Prestige requirement and got rewarded by the captain of the soldiers, receiving a Soldier’s Honorable Gift Pack.

Upon opening the Soldier’s Honorable Gift Pack, he was rewarded with 2500 Official Position Points, allowing Li Yi’s Military Rank to rise up once more, going from a Level 1 Soldier to a Level 3 Soldier.

A Soldier’s Honorable Gift Pack can reward a player 1-2500 Official Position Points. It mostly would award single digit points and getting the full amount would be extremely rare. Seems like when it came to something other than looting bosses, Li Yi’s luck was quite good.

The rank at his head immediately changed, going from [City-Defending Soldier] to [Patrolling Soldier]. This title awarded 6 points of STR and a 50 MP cap increase.

A Level 3 Soldier was given the Patrolling title, now when Li Yi walked around Shattered Frost City, even though his name was still very red, he could still occasionally hear some NPCs in the city praising him.

Since he attained the title [Patrolling Soldier], he no longer had access to any bandit-raiding quests, those quests were now replaced with patrolling quests. He can now walk around with the NPC soldiers in the city, taking charge of managing Shattered Frost City’s security.

If there were any players in the city initiating PK Mode, Li Yi would immediately receive a system notification. If he manages to successfully resolve the incident, he could increase his Military Rank and gain Soldier Honor Value.

Of course, this was only the most basic of a Patrolling Soldier’s duties. The other duty was the crazy part. If there were any players that he did not like who dared to set up stalls on the sidewalk, he could just walk over and kick over the stand regardless of the player in question’s level, resulting in the said player receiving a fine.

It was not even an option not to pay the fine, and if the player decides to counterattack, he would be attacked and pursued by every Patrolling Soldier in Shattered Frost City.

Li Yi followed the NPC soldiers and walked around Shattered Frost City three times. There was not a single player who was out looking for a fight. However, there was one single player who tried to set up a stall on the sidewalk, but unfortunately, before he even came in contact with the player, the player had already packed up and scurried off.

Just as Li Yi started to feel bored and wanted to go offline to take a break, he received an anonymous message from a stranger.

“Son of a b*tch, guess who the hell am I?”
