Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 772: Protection

With Xu Feng warning Carmen about the danger of her action today, she remained nonchalant and carefree.

In fact, she didnʼt even seem bothered that some people would target her just because she refused to join their affiliation.

”Honorary Elder seemed to have forgotten about my past incident.” She suddenly smirked and kindly reminded him about the Reaver Guildʼs action toward her.

”Did you think I havenʼt experienced the scene of getting persecuted?”

Hearing that, Xu Feng must admit his mistake. It appeared that he was wrong to underestimate the mentality of Carmen.

”Youʼre right. I just wanted to give you a heads up of the possibility.” He responded.

He was about to speak further but Carmen interrupted him.

”The heads up is nice, but thereʼs no need for that. Even if I remain unaware, my Guild Leader will definitely be the first to fend off those scums.” She flashed a cheeky smile.

Speechless, Xu Feng had to hand it to her. She was definitely getting more and more cheeky, but he couldnʼt argue against it either.

After all, he would indeed destroy those who wanted to harm her. That was the duty of a guild leader. Of course, it only applied to his loyal members.

As for those who only came in to hug the wealth and fame, he could really care less. They would be used as manual labor and get some benefit in return, but that was about it.

While they were conversing casually, the news of Carmenʼs ability to devastate a new type of Colossus quickly spread like wildfire.

”Whoever she is, she must be in our guild!”

”I donʼt care how much we need to spend to recruit her. We need her ASAP!”

”Vanguard Guild… theyʼre mysterious indeed, but I refuse to believe theyʼre omnipotent. A powerful summoner like her shouldnʼt be in an upstart guild.”

The commotion rapidly turned chaotic, with many top guilds and a few super guilds as well as wanting to recruit a talented person like Carmen into their team.

No one would ever complain about recruiting a strong player into their team or guild—especially when resources were still available to be plundered.

The progress of the Divine World was soon going to be the era of level 40s. By then, the NPC cities wouldnʼt be as important as the higher-level neutral map.

As each part of the guilds and teams began their preparation, back at the battlefield in Dawnshire City, Carmen began to flash her might.

She first headed over to Zhao Kaiʼs section and greeted him.

”Hello.” She waved her hand.

”Uh, yes, hello.” Initially startled, Zhao Kai nearly wanted to curse the intruder for interrupting his zone. However, he realized it was someone from the Vanguard Guild, and upon closer inspection, it was the person he had been trying to surpass.

”What are you doing here?” He then asked in a nervous tone. ʼShe canʼt be trying to kill steal me now, right? Iʼve worked so hard and got it to less than 30%.ʼ

”I came here to assist you,” Carmen explained.

Instantly, a petrified look appeared on his face.

As much as he wanted to curse her for being unscrupulous, he couldnʼt do so because they were in the same guild. And for some reason, his buddy valued her more than him. Without a doubt, he would get the short end of the stick if he complained or tried to seek justice.

Meanwhile, his expression which was extremely clear to read, caused Carmen to be baffled. ʼI guessed he viewed me as a rival since weʼre in the same rank in the guild.ʼ

Shaking her head, Carmen decided to back off. ”Iʼve just finished assisting the Honorary Elder and thought of coming here to help you. But I see that you seem capable so Iʼm going to help the others.”

Before Zhao Kai could even respond, Carmen entered a portal that she created and exited the scene.

”...”

Zhao Kai was rendered speechless for a moment and ultimately failed to notice an incoming attack from the sneaky Colossus who took advantage of his distraction.

BAM!

He was immediately struck flying across the field and lost quite a bit of health points in the process.

Zhao Kaiʼs face was quickly smeared in dirt and he twitched his mouth in anger.

”Hah, I just got looked down upon by a fellow guild mate. And now you dare to pull a sneak attack?” Infuriated, Zhao Kai held his shield and charged straight ahead. He was extremely embarrassed by the certainty of Carmenʼs thoughts about him being a petty person.

What better way to vent than thrashing a tanky monster!

Thus, the scene of a tragic Colossus being bodied by an Eclipser Knight was recorded for future reference.

Meanwhile, on the far right side of the field, Gentle Wind, who had assumed total control, was busy putting the Colossus in place.

”Steelshot, keep it up and distract the Colossusʼ attention.” She commanded.

Steelshot who was running all over the field while dodging the skill shot nodded. ”Roger that. The Colossus should be dreaming about ever landing a hit on me.”

Although not a tank, he was a Gunner who emphasized speed. With his agility attribute nearly at the top, he was confident in his evasion skill.

”SilentWhisper, get ready to assist—” Just when Gentle Wind was about to command her other subordinate, she noticed an abnormality.

By instinct alone, she shifted her attention and gazed at the left side of the scene.

”Who is it?” She shouted in alarm.

With Gentle Windʼs sudden shout, those in the frontline maintained their formation to keep the Colossus at bay whereas the others began to chant their spells.

”Guild Leader Gentle Wind sure is perceptive.” Emerging from the portal was naturally Carmen, who didnʼt wish to waste time traveling on foot.

”Fret not, Iʼm here to grant you the protection that you paid for.” Carmen chuckled and turned her attention to the Colossus. The health point of the Colossus was surprisingly still at around 60%.

ʼAh, they really are incompetent.ʼ She thought to herself.
