From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS

Chapter 49: Are Those Three Bosses?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Even though there was a little trouble taking over Mount Mingai, both Mount Mingai and Chuanyun Stronghold had been taken over almost without a fight.

But it wasn’t too big of a commotion.

Qin Shujian could understand the benefits that came with being capable enough.

In his previous life, he lived in a world where it was the survival of the fittest, and he was still held back.

But in this place, physical prowess was everything.

He was strong and capable enough, and that’s why he could sweep through Messy Stone Forest.

If he wasn’t, then the levels of Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming, both Mountain Bandit leaders, would never have given in and bowed to him.

After he absorbed Chuanyun Stronghold, the Liangshan Stronghold had a significant increase in strength.

They were still inside the same meeting room.

But while Xu Yuanming once sat in the seat reserved for the leader, he now sat in the seat reserved for a subordinate.

Of course, the almighty Chieftain Qin got to sit on the seat meant for the leader.

“If you are planning on attacking Messy Gold Mountain, then your subordinate here has quite some information on this.” Xu Yuanming quickly spoke up first after he settled down in his chair.

Since he had already surrendered and became part of the Liangshan Stronghold, he quickly got into his new role.

As such, the moment he knew that Qin Shujian had the intention to consolidate all of Messy Stone Forest, he immediately tried to prove himself useful. He hoped that his position in Qin Shujian’s heart would be higher as a result.

Niu Feng snorted instead. “Given the Chieftain’s capabilities, one mere Messy Gold Mountain can’t possibly stir any trouble. Even if Zeng Hong suddenly managed to reach Martial Entry-Level Six, he’s dead meat for sure. Who needs you to provide any information?”

Xu Yuanming started getting angry.

Just when he was about to respond, he heard a stern shout.

“Enough!”

Qin Shujian’s gaze was slightly cold. When he looked at them, both of them immediately hung their heads and didn’t dare to meet his gaze.

After that, he spoke slowly in a tone of voice that didn’t allow for any rebuttal. “Messy Gold Mountain is the last section left in the Messy Stone Forest. Even if there is another Martial Entry-Level Nine fighter in Messy Gold Mountain, this area would still be unable to escape from my grasp.”

“Leave some men in Chuanyun Stronghold to stand guard. Xu Yuanming, pick some men and follow us to head for Messy Gold Mountain!”

“Yes, Chieftain!” Xu Yuanming didn’t dare to refuse his orders and immediately nodded his head.

Since everything was settled, Qin Shujian got up and left the meeting room.

On the other side, Xu Yuanming gathered his men together and made arrangements for which ones were to stay behind and stand guard. He then led the rest of Chuanyun Stronghold’s Mountain Bandits to move out with great pomp along with Qin Shujian and made their way toward Messy Gold Mountain.

But when they reached the foot of the mountain, Xu Yuanming and his men saw the Mountain Bandits from Mount Mingai.

When he saw this, Xu Yuanming felt his heart shiver again.

He realized that Qin Shujian already had plans to annihilate Chuanyun Stronghold completely.

These Mountain Bandits guarding the foot of the mountain leading to Chuanyun Stronghold were here to stop anybody from Chuanyun Stronghold from escaping and would leave nobody alive.

He was glad that he had surrendered early on.

Otherwise, after today, Chuanyun Stronghold would definitely be completely destroyed without a trace.

The Mountain Bandits from Mount Mingai and Chuanyun Stronghold were in front to lead the way, while Qin Shujian walked in the middle with Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming.

Since there was nothing else to do during this time...

Qin Shujian decided to take a look at the attributes of this new Elite Leader.

Name: Xu Yuanming

Identity: Elite Leader

Affiliate: Liangshan Stronghold

Stage: Martial Entry-Level Five

Affiliate Level: Level

Techniques: Flowing Waves (Perfected), Cloud Parting Sword Technique (Blue Furnace Flame), Scattered Flowers Palm Technique (Enlightened)

Just like Niu Feng.

Xu Yuanming had also cultivated his main technique to the Perfected stage.

He was stuck at Martial Entry-Level Five purely because there was no other level to move on to, and there was no path ahead of him anymore.

When it came to a fighter like this, Qin Shujian was certain that as long as they found a technique to continue, it would only be a matter of time before these two would find their way to break through to Martial Entry-Level Six.

In other words, as long as they could find a technique to keep going, Liangshan Stronghold would immediately have a couple of Martial Entry-Level Six fighters.

On top of that, compared to Niu Feng, Xu Yuanming’s stats were just that one bit better.

“What the f*ck? Look over there! Are those three Bosses?”

There was a team of players looking at the large group of Mountain Bandits around the three leaders from afar, and they couldn’t help but gape in shock.

Qin Shujian and the other two leaders, in particular, caught their attention immediately when they walked in the middle of the team as if they were cranes among a bunch of chickens.

This scenario before them made the players who saw this immediately think of a few Bosses bringing along their band of followers.

After they got over their shock, they were overwhelmed with excitement.

A tall and skinny player licked his lips and rubbed his chin as he said to the one next to him, “Out of those three enemies, at least one of them is a Boss. Or maybe all three of them are Bosses.”

...

“If we can blast these guys to pieces, we’ll strike it rich.”

The player next to him immediately rolled his eyes upon hearing these words. “Never mind those three Bosses. Those 60 or 70 other fellows are enough to swallow both of us whole.”

Blast the Boss to pieces?

How were they going to blast them?

Blast them with their heads?

The entire group of minions was clearly carrying weapons with such a fierce and vicious expression. It was clear that these guys were not to be trifled with.

If they really tried to attack them, the chances of them getting blasted to pieces by these opponents stood at 100%.

After these words were said, that tall and skinny player looked rather resentful as well.

It was true.

There were so many minions.

Never mind his bunch. Even a top-notch team of players wouldn’t be able to deal with so many of them.

...

So the tall and skinny player immediately dismissed the thoughts he had earlier and could only look out at the Mountain Bandits from afar.

However...

Since these players had discovered the group of Mountain Bandits...

Qin Shujian had also discovered the presence of players as he walked in the middle of his group.

“Players?” Qin Shujian raised his eyebrow slightly.

There was nothing special or strange about running into players out in the wild.

However, he was now a high-level Boss to the players.

How could a Boss see players and ignore them? That wasn’t right.

“Send men to kill off any outlanders they see along the way.” Qin Shujian’s calm voice resounded in Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming’s ears.

Upon hearing this, Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming were both stunned at first.

But they soon snapped out of it, and their eyes were spewing with sinister and murderous intentions as they looked at the players that were getting out of their way as they walked along.

After that, a portion of the group of Mountain Bandits suddenly came out from the group and started killing their way toward the players. Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming both wanted to prove themselves, so they went out personally on an attack as well.

“What the f*ck...”

All the players who were just hiding and watching from afar started to curse and swear when this happened.

Were all these in-game opponents all this crazy these days?

The players didn’t even make any attack or show any intention too, but the other side dared to attack them first.

This angered most players, and they were definitely not going to take this lying down.

But just when the other players were prepared to make a counterattack...

BOOM!

Niu Feng used just one swing of his knife to strike a Martial Entry-Level Two player dead on the spot. Then he swung his knife violently toward another player’s face, and that player’s head became crooked upon the impact as his entire body turned into a white flash of light and disappeared.

This scene made all the other players feel their hearts tremble.

They were originally prepared to fight back, but now they all forced themselves to stop.

They looked back at the Mountain Bandits, who were running like mad toward them, and then at Niu Feng’s aggressive and authoritative stance, as well as the way everyone was looking at them with such a terrifying look in their eyes. These made the players feel like their hearts were in their mouths already.

There was no way they could fight back.

The Boss was already too powerful, and he had so many minions assisting him as well.

There was no way all these random and scattered players would be any match for them.

And so, after realizing that the situation didn’t look good, all the players eventually chose to retreat in the end.
