Chapter 416 Ghostly Soldier Headquarters?

Villain Ch 416. Ghostly Soldier Headquarters

Allen made his way toward the portal room. His gaze fixed on the holographic screen in front of him. The translucent map displayed the locations of various players and their levels, providing him with a reference to complete his quest.

His index finger moved skillfully over the holographic interface, scrolling up and down the list of maps and player information. The system had provided him with a vast array of choices, with over 50 maps containing high-level players. While the system also displayed a list of player names on each map, Allen could only search within the individual map lists.

His mind worked overtime to try and guess where Elio might be. He knew Elio well, considering their long history of gaming together. Elio was a paladin, a class that excelled in supporting and protecting a group. Therefore, it was highly likely that he would prefer maps suited for party hunts rather than solo endeavors.

Taking into account Elio’s class and level, Allen considered several factors. He thought about the types of maps where a paladin like Elio would be most effective. Dungeons with challenging bosses, open-world areas with high-level monsters, and raid zones designed for parties all came to mind. Elio’s penchant for group play meant that he would seek out locations where he could contribute to a team’s success.

Allen’s mind whirred with thoughts as he continued to scroll through the list of maps. “I think Black Castle is the most suitable of all…” he pondered. The sprawling Black Castle was a vast area, divided into several dungeons, each with its own unique challenges. Allen knew that finding Elio within this labyrinthine castle wouldn’t be easy, but he was determined to try.

Considering Elio’s class, a paladin with a powerful holy element attack, Allen began to narrow down his options. He mentally reviewed the dungeons within Black Castle, searching for those that would best suit Elio’s playstyle. Four in particular stood out in his mind: the soldier’s headquarters, the haunted hallway, the prison, and the labyrinth.

These dungeons were known for their formidable foes and challenging encounters, making them ideal for a skilled paladin like Elio. With a sense of determination, Allen set his sights on these locations.

With anticipation building, Allen swiftly accessed the player list on his holographic screen. His eyes scanned the names displayed before him, and a sense of relief washed over him as he spotted the familiar name of Elio, along with several members of the Order of Valiance guild. They were all listed as being in the soldier’s headquarters, confirming his hunch.

What caught Allen’s attention even more was the absence of certain names from the list. Sophia, Liam, and Darren were notably missing. This was good news for him.

A sly smirk crept onto Allen’s lips as he realized that the odds were finally in his favor. “Perfect!” he exclaimed with a sense of determination. He halted in front of the portal, his fingers deftly selecting the option to teleport to the map where Elio and the members of the Order of Valiance guild were located.

With a flash of light, his surroundings underwent a rapid transformation. As the teleportation took effect, Allen felt the sensation of being disassembled and reassembled in a different location. When he reappeared, around him had indeed changed.

The place exuded an eerie atmosphere. The furniture was in a state of disarray, scattered haphazardly across the room. Broken and splintered chairs, tables, and cabinets lay strewn about, as if they had borne witness to untold turmoil. It was clear that the room had seen better days.

The stone walls and floors told a story of their own. Deep cracks and chipped stones marred the surfaces, serving as grim reminders of past conflicts and battles that had unfolded within these very walls. The scars of war were etched into every nook and cranny of the headquarters, leaving a haunting impression of the battles that had raged here.

Groans of anguish and anger echoed from all directions, the wails of long-forgotten soldiers still resonating within the haunted halls. These sorrowful cries mixed with the rhythmic clanking of old knight armor, as if the spirits of the fallen warriors were bound to their armor for all eternity.

Amidst the haunting sounds, the eerie ambiance was further punctuated by the sharp, magical incantations of spells and the unmistakable clash of swords. It was a cacophony that spoke of the place’s busyness, a hub of activity within the virtual world. The headquarters buzzed with players engaged in fierce battles against the undead monsters and ghostly knights that roamed the area.

Every corner seemed to hold the promise of danger and adventure. The undead monsters and ghost knights, their ethereal forms twisted and tormented, filled the space. Their presence was a testament to the darkness that had once consumed this place. Despite the eerie atmosphere, the loot they guarded was undeniably tempting, beckoning the players with the promise of valuable rewards.

The battle sounds surrounding him sent a surge of adrenaline through Allen’s veins. His grin twisted into a wicked expression as he muttered to himself, “This is the perfect place to hunt players.” With each step he took, his excitement grew.

Reaching out to his side, Allen summoned his trusted weapon, Nightmare. As he did, a notification flashed before him.

[You have equipped +7 Nightmare Sword]

The black sword materialized in his hand, its blade shrouded in a dense, ominous aura. It was a weapon that had been upgraded just the previous night at the Cursed Crypts’ blacksmith, a decision that had been both a gamble and a source of frustration.

The process of upgrading equipment was a risky endeavor, especially when dealing with items that exceeded a +3 enhancement. The higher the enhancement level, the greater the risk of failure. If an upgrade attempt failed, the equipment’s enhancement level would plummet back to zero. Luckily after several attempts to upgrade, he managed to get it.

Allen’s eyes gleamed with a predatory intensity as he scanned the area for potential targets. His intent was clear: he was on the hunt for other players. However, he knew that he needed to approach this stealthily, so as not to startle them into fleeing, especially Elio. Elio wasn’t with his primary group, and the paladin was more likely to avoid conflict than engage in battle with Allen, as had often been the case before.

To minimize his presence, Allen decided to move as silently as possible. He aimed to make as little noise as he could so that other players would remain unaware of his approach. This included avoiding the use of area-of-effect skills that might draw attention to him. It was this element of stealth and surprise that heightened his excitement.

In just a minute of quietly advancing toward the source of the commotion, Allen reached a clearing where he spotted a gathering of players locked in combat. They were locked in a heated struggle against a group of Ghost Knights, their weapons clashing with the spectral foes in a frantic battle for survival.

“Let’s warm up a bit,” he muttered with a sly grin.π‘œπ‘£π˜­.π˜―π‘‘
