Chapter 1709 - A Big Meeting

Chapter 1709: A Big Meeting
While they were fighting in the Instance Dungeon, Square Root 3 sent a message.
It was said that the major clubs were conducting a big meeting. This time, it wasn’t being led by Jade Flower Lover as usual, but by Sorrowless himself.
Since it was Sorrowless calling the meeting, there was a stronger response.

What is the meeting about?
Lu Li asked. Since Sorrowless had organised a meeting and rushed to have it promoted, no one dared to ignore it and Lu Li didn’t want to be ignorant either.

I think it’s about Instance Dungeons,
Square Root 3 said.

That’s fine, I’ll go have a look.

Lu Li’s team was about to get wiped again. He left Sky Moon in charge and got a damage output player to replace him.
Square Root 3 gave Lu Li a room number and a complicated password.
After Lu Li entered, he was still surprised, even though he had mentally prepared himself. There really were hundreds of people in this chat room. Even if the room owner limited the number of messages that a person could send, the screen was still filled with messages.

Hey, Lu Li is here. Let me introduce you. Everyone, this is Ruling Sword’s representative. I’m sure everyone has heard this name before,
Elevenless announced.

Why are you here? Where’s your big brother?


Hey, can you not count? I am eleven and he is thirteen. I am obviously his big brother,
Elevenless shot back. He seemed to care about what he was called.

What is the meeting for?
Lu Li asked, choosing not to bother with him.

I don’t know. The master hasn’t said anything yet,
Jade Flower Lover answered somewhat bitterly. When he saw the authority that Sorrowless’ name commanded and compared to his, he just couldn’t help but feel sorry for himself.

There are some people who aren’t here yet. Please wait a bit longer,
Wendelian said.
She was a member of Gale Legion, so she naturally would be on Glory Capital’s side. She didn’t want Jade Flower Lover to spread dissatisfaction, not that it was likely to happen anyway.
Everyone waited in the chat room for another half an hour as the number of people entering decreased.
When people stopped joining, Lu Li found himself participating in a large-scale conference of the entire Chinese gaming circle. He counted up the players and found that more than 800 players were in this chat room.
If every club or guild sent a player, then there would be more than 800 people.
There weren’t this many large guilds, so Sorrowless had probably also invited medium-sized guilds that he considered to be top-notch. Lu Li wasn’t clear on what Sorrowless intended, but he had a few guesses.

Everyone has been waiting for some time. Thanks for that,
Sorrowless began to speak. His voice made the rest of the room go quiet.

Everyone knows of the Instance Dungeon Boss Ouro. Well, the foreign regions have also reached this point of the game. I don’t know how they are going in the other regions, but defeating this Boss has now become a matter of pride for the Chinese region. As such, I invited everyone who is strong to be a part of this chat room.


Previously, there have been similar situations, but most of them have been about Wild Bosses. Some people have one, and others lost them, but we have never been left behind here in China.


But Ouro is different. The other regions reached this Boss before us, and they have specifically formed a strong alliance to defeat it. I even have received several reports that they have reached the stage of Ouro going Beserk. It is likely that they will achieve First Clear within the next 2 weeks.


Among us, we have the elite of the elite. Especially someone like… Lu Li. What do you think?

Lu Li had been studying the clubs and guilds that were present. He didn’t expect to be questioned first. He didn’t want to just give away everything he knew. However, one couldn’t blame Lu Li either. He and Sorrowless were clearly rivals. The strongest impression Lu Li had of Sorrowless was that he was a mortal enemy.

Lu Li glanced at the messages that had been sent and quickly wrote up something

I strongly support everyone’s plan. This is a big deal that affects all of the Chinese region. As a member of this region, Ruling Sword will work hard to fight this Instance Dungeon. We will not allow the foreign regions to get ahead of us.


…
Sorrowless wanted to scold him. This Lu Li guy really wasn’t cooperating at all.
If all Sorrowless wanted to do was to get everyone to fight in the Instance Dungeon, there was no real need for such a meeting. Even if he didn’t do this, everyone would still compete viciously to get Ouro’s First Clear.

Lu Li, how far has your First Clear team gotten?
Jade Flower Lover asked.
There were more than 800 people in this chat room, but there were a few people dozen people whose chat wasn’t limited.
These people all led guilds that were capable of taking down the Ahn’Qiraj Temple on their own. Then there were some guilds with some limitations on their messaging, because they weren’t capable of doing that. The guilds that were even smaller didn’t have messaging rights, and had to apply to send a message.
This kind of ruthless hierarchy had been in the gaming circle for a long time.
There were many people who hated this, but it was hard to change the system. Once they were in a position of privilege, they became strong supporters of the system.

We have reached the third stage, and we sometimes get it to Berserk,
Lu Li answered, not hiding their progress.
These 800 players represented the backbone of the entire Chinese gaming circle. There was no need for him to keep a low profile in front of these people. If Ruling Sword wanted to improve, they would eventually need to look to these people.

Berserk!

Sorrowless’ pitch got higher, and everyone in the room immediately understood what he meant.

It seems that Glory Capital has almost entered the Berserk stage too. We, Blood Red War Flag, aren’t too far behind. We can get it to go Berserk at least 4 out of 10 times,
Jade Flower Lover said.
If Jade Flower Lover said that they were still in the first stage, then Blood Red War Flag wouldn’t be able to call themselves a top 3 club anymore.

We are similar,
Elevenless chimed in with envy.

We are a little worse. We are still on the third stage, but at the beginning. We lose too many players then, so we can’t get much further,
Lucky Southern Persian spoke up. He was representing Seventh Heaven.

We are also in the third stage,
Heart of War said.
Everyone couldn’t help but express their surprise.
This guy was really making a comeback!

I guess I don’t have to say anything, but our progress is the same as Ruling Sword.

Water Fairy was still in the Instance Dungeon, so there were two representatives here.
They hadn’t said anything until now, but everyone felt sick when they heard it.
This three-guild alliance had taken so many First Clears. Drizzle Court and Peerless City had followed Lu Li to achieve great success. No matter what everyone else said, they had to admit that they were jealous of them.
Why didn’t their guild have a supporter like how Water Fairy supported Lu Li?
