“The wind speed is good, and the direction is correct. We are only a minute from arriving at the crossroad intersection outpost. All warriors of Victoria City! For the glory of Victoria City!” a commander of Victoria City shouted on an Airship. The gamer was immersed in his role. Another gamer was singing the war song.
“A difficult battle is coming~ Our secret weapon is unleashing mayhem forthcoming~”
SealHeadLingChong found the war song appealing.
“Will we fall to our deaths? Is the parachute effective?”
TakeASpearHit looked nervous compared to SealHeadLingChong.
“Why are you fearful? You’ll fall to death at most. You’re not much use in battle anyway.”
TakeASpearHit was displeased with SealHeadLingChong’s condescending tone. He slapped the outside of the Airship and said, “What are you saying? I’m a great strategist who can deal with the powerful Arthur. Do you think you can defeat him in a duel?”
“Hoodlum is in charge of dealing with Arthur. His Weapon Level is higher than Arthur’s by a level, and his equipment is on par. It’s the Legendary Purple Equipment. Arthur might not be able to defeat Hoodlum.”
A gamer of Victoria City said in astonishment, “What? Is Arthur’s Weapon Level at Level 9? So fast? Isn’t his Weapon Level at Level 6 or 7?”
“It’s normal for rich gamers to upgrade their Weapon Level very fast. After all, they can use money to trigger Strange Encounters. I heard there are many powerful Winterfell warriors who will teach you combat skills if you pay them Magic Stones. Many gamers of Eternal Kingdom approached them to learn combat skills.”
“Our Lancelot is pretty strong too. Didn’t Lancelot defeat Hoodlum? We can ask Lancelot to teach us.”
“Forget it. Lancelot is keeping his wife company in the Duke of York’s Castle. He won’t have the time for us.”
“Isn’t Duke Guinevere a man? Is Lancelot involved in homosexuality?”
“It’s possible. The game can change an NPC into a woman in a second for all we know.”
“No, perhaps the officials are going for homosexuality. It’s such a fad. Even the Otakus like it.”
“You’re smearing all Otakus.”
The gamers of Victoria City were chatting wildly on the Airships that were now above the battlefield. If they could land behind enemy lines using the parachutes and attack the gamers of Eternal Kingdom, it would be very damaging. The gamers of Eternal Kingdom would lose morale very fast, especially when they couldn’t afford to die.
“All members, get ready to jump with your parachutes!” the commander shouted. The singing gamer showed a thumbs up and jumped with his parachute, which didn’t open up. He fell to the ground within 30 seconds.
TakeASpearHit was shocked by what he saw. But it wasn’t the time to hesitate.
Numerous gamers jumped with their parachutes. Though the direction of the Airships could be controlled, they couldn’t accelerate. The Airships had just arrived in the sky above the crossroad intersection outpost even though they were flying at full speed.
TakeASpearHit didn’t hesitate. He jumped off with his parachute while thinking of his comprehensive battle plan. He would gather with the main force before starting the killing spree and pillaging equipment.
Then he would encounter a powerful warrior of Eternal Kingdom. After a vicious battle and killing his opponent, he would become the hero of Victoria City.
That was TakeASpearHit’s plan. His chance of success was very high if his parachute didn’t malfunction.
“Ah—!”
In his despair, anger, and mixed feelings of being indignant, TakeASpearHit fell to his death. His parachute opened too late because he thought too much.
Even if the parachute opened, it was of no use. The parachute was defective.
