Li Yi had always thought of Holy Pure Eh as a wuss and never did he strike him as a leader.

“Fine, I’ll accept your request since you put it that way.”

With a smile, Li Yi accepted all ten of the Paladins, including Holy Pure Eh into his guild.

“You have my thanks.” Holy Pure Eh bowed his head gratefully, and so did the seven Paladins that left the guild. It made for an awkward moment.

At that moment, the Guild Master of Reigning the World, Night Moon exited Wailing Grotto along with a bunch of people. Her presence was a result of the collapsed players informing her what had happened.

Li Yi stood still with a smile on his face. On the other hand, Holy Pure Eh and the others were worried as their appearance had brought back the memories of their previous slaughter.

“Guild Master, it’s ….”

The corpse that reprimanded Li Yi stood up. Without a hint of hesitation, Li Yi drew his bow and launched an arrow, turning him into a corpse once more.

Li Yi chuckled, “I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. As long as I’m here, you’ll die for as many times as you rise!”

Li Yi paid no mind to Night Moon and killed as he saw fit!

Night Moon’s face took on a nasty shade whereas the lackeys behind her could control themselves no longer. With a piercing cry, they rushed towards Li Yi.

Without exception, all the players that Night Moon had brought along were Elites within her guild. On top of that, ten or so of them were top-ranking experts within the Western Continent. Seeing their brothers killed before them had driven them mad.

Night Moon’s face was expressionless, and she uttered no words, indicating her approval of their actions.

“All of you, fall back!”

Li Yi motioned towards Holy Pure Eh and the others and summoned Violent Bear King.

At Level 100, Violent Bear King possessed 80,000 HP, and its damage was nothing to scoff at. At its full strength, its performance would be comparable to that of a main tank at the same level.

“Violent Bear’s Protection!”

Li Yi instantly stripped Violent Bear King of its strength, and his HP soared to 101,000. Without the Protection, his HP would only be around 20,000.

“Meteor Arrow! Elimination Arrow!”

Li Yi let loose two arrows, and while doing so, he chugged down a Hegemonic Body Potion and activated his Rocket Propellant to dash forward.

Night Moon had brought along 200 or so lackeys, and Wizards comprised of half of them. Unless he ended the battle quickly, he would not stand a chance, even with his increased HP.

He would be unable to take their combined assault, and as such, he needed to end the battle posthaste!

“Shoot at Random!”

Right as the Wizards shook their staffs and hands and began to chant, Li Yi dashed within their ranks. His body emanated a golden light and launched Shoot at Random in earnest.

Tch tch tch tch tch—

The powerful Star Arrows were let loose in all directions, even above and below. In an instant, a huge portion of Night Moon’s lackeys had collapsed.

“Charge! Repent! Spirit Bind!”

The color drained from the faces of Night Moon’s remaining forces. They hurriedly cast their Control Skills in an attempt to dull Li Yi’s combat ability.

“Dark Devour, Survival Instinct!”

All of the debuffs were devoured, and with Survival Instinct’s activation, came several layers of debuff immunity.

“Shoot at Random!”

Hegemonic Body Potion’s might came into full use. While the attacks on Li Yi had shaved off his health, they did not hinder Shoot at Random from being cast. Players gradually fell, and within a minute, only a few players remained.

“Holy Shield Spell!”

Holy Pure Eh led two Punishment Paladins and surged forward to surround a Wizard that was a distance away from Li Yi. They assailed him with a barrage of Hammer of Punishment.

In truth, Li Yi needed no assistance in disposing of this rabble. After all, he was at Level 100, and the players he was facing were not even at Level 70.

The gap of 30 levels had trampled them thoroughly…

The orange bow’s long attack range had left Night Moon’s lackeys with no way to escape. Before long, they were all cleaned up by Li Yi.

All 200 of them were now lying on the floor without exception.

Night Moon stood at the grotto’s entrance, face blanched. Everyone aside from her was all dead.

‘What happened to strength in numbers?’ The ridiculous thought appeared within Night Moon’s mind.

“Alright, let’s do our quests.”

Without sparing a look at Night Moon, he beckoned toward Holy Pure Eh and entered the grotto.

Night Moon stood like a log as she quietly let Li Yi and his party enter the grotto…

After Li Yi and his party were gone, Night Moon let out a weak sigh, “So this is the gap between us?”

The reason that she had brought her men here was due to a suggestion by Autumn Love. She recommended them to head into a pitch-black hallway to grind their levels. After all, no one had known of the Level Cap at Level 100, but now the Level Cap was clearly displayed on the board along with its rules and rewards.

‘No more procrastinating! We must rush our levels!’

To be frank, after Li Yi had reached the Level Cap, the entire Pantheon World had entered a leveling frenzy. It was not only Night Moon who thought that way, but many others also had the same idea.

It was not only equipment that was pivotal to clearing Party-level Instance Dungeons, but levels as well. For the first five deaths within the dungeons in a day, resurrection by Healers would not cost any EXP points, but once past that number, resurrections would lose EXP no matter what. Losing levels were common as parties got wiped constantly, but once the Level Cap was reached, they no longer had to worry about that problem, as dying no longer costed levels, which was undoubtedly a time-saving boon.

There were now far fewer players grinding Light Conference, as they had all went off to rush levels…

“Your coordination with your two pals ain’t bad. You act in sync and your equipment are similar as well.”

Violent Bear King led the way forward clumsily, whereas Li Yi and Holy Pure Eh chatted while walking at the same pace. The two pals that Li Yi was referring to were the two Paladins that never left Holy Pure Eh’s side.

“Aside from our classmates, I’ve met two good buddies within the game. Here, let me introduce you to them.” Holy Pure Eh called over the two Paladins with a smile on his face and introduced them to Li Yi.

“Punishment Paladin, Situya, Level 65.”

“Punishment Paladin, Smiling Dummy, Level 67.”

Li Yi extended his hand, “Wow, all of you are Punishment Paladins. Heh, nice to meet you all.”

Situya had a long and slender face and looked a bit brutish. On the other hand, Smiling Dummy looked true to his name, as he looked like a fool that always had a smile plastered on his face.

Li Yi was sort of remembered the both of them from his past life, as they always stuck with Holy Pure Eh. They were brothers through and through, just like the Five Emperors of the World. They advanced together, retreated together, and of course, Li Yi’s impression of them was not of their skills, but their unique nickname.

Together, they were known as ‘Ya Eh Dum’, which roughly translated to the Japanese word, Yamete.

The quests that Holy Pure Eh and the others had received were simple, and that was to collect 100 Black Crystal Rocks within Wailing Grotto. They did not need to scour the depths, and they only needed to spend some time around the entrance to settle it.

Since the Frogmen Tribe was located at the central region of the grotto, Li Yi separated from the others a while later.

As usual, Li Yi soon was made dizzy by the winding and branching paths. He stopped at regular intervals and doubled back several times. After expending an enormous effort, he finally reached the central region.

The hardest location to reach within Wailing Grotto was still its depths, as the path to it constantly changed. Thankfully, the road to the central region did not. After eating a Magical Jello and turning into a frog, he quickly found the Frogmen Tribe.

It was desolate as usual, and only a few frogmen hopped around and about before him.

He walked towards the Tailor’s Shop and after checking his friend list, he realized that Windless Heavenly Robe’s name was still up.

He burrowed his way into the shop, and to his amazement, Windless Heavenly Robe was training his Mastery.

“Heavenly Robe, why haven’t you gone back?” Li Yi was confused, as he recalled, Heavenly Robe had already canceled the troll quest given by Black Dragon Princess.

“Dark Wing?” Windless Heavenly Robe jumped up in surprise. Now that the quest was canceled, he had forgotten how to turn into the fake frogman.

After confirming that it was Li Yi, Windless Heavenly Robe was overjoyed. He immediately gave a long-winded explanation about everything that transpired within the past month.

Although he had indeed canceled the Frogman’s Eye quest, he never left the place. He believed that there was a hidden quest here and that he would find it if he continued staying here…

Li Yi pinched his forehead with his fingers, sighing, ” You’ve named yourself wrongly. You shouldn’t be Windless Heavenly Robe, and instead, be Crashing Through the Southern Wall. 1 ”

“This is called making the most out of a bad situation. I’m not paranoid, I really ain’t. You think so too right, right?” Windless Heavenly Robe went into denial.

“Yeah, I believe that you aren’t one.” Li Yi answered in a serious tone, but in his heart, he thought, ‘Nobody else would be classified as one if you aren’t one.’

“At first I slaughtered the Frogmen daily, and after some time, I opened up a treasure chest which made me into a true frogman like you.”

“Then I infiltrated them, and to my surprise, they no longer lashed out at me. Instead, they talked kindly to me. Also, I met a head frogman that brought me to do a quest. So I followed him to complete his quests, and repeated it day, after day, after day…”

Li Yi’s eyes lit up as he heard Windless Heavenly Robe’s story.

‘This punk’s quest flow is similar to mine. Since he’s been doing it for a month, could he have found a way to earn Frogmen Reputation?’

Windless Heavenly Robe sighed, “I ran all over the place, and in the end, I bought up a bunch of Magical Jello that allowed me to turn into a frogman. There isn’t any other quest here, and even after exploring the entire frogman world, I still could not find a continuation quest.”

“But I haven’t given up. I strongly believe that there still exists a quest, otherwise, that Frogman Quartermaster would not be there.”

“I agree!”

Li Yi expressed his agreement and nodded his head.

“So, I looked and looked, and tried again and again. Hahaha, fortune favors the bold. After half a month of experimentation, I finally found a way to raise Frogman Reputation.” Windless Heavenly Robe delightedly flaunted the half-made clothes he made.

Li Yi’s eyes widened, “Is it related to the Frog Queen?”

Surprised, Windless Heavenly Robe titled his head. “How did you figure it out?”

Li Yi rubbed his jaws. “The first time I came here, the Frog Queen went along with your Emperor’s new clothes idea. I found it a bit odd.”

Windless Heavenly Robe slapped his thighs, “I see, the problem lies with the Frog Queen!”
