"Hurry up there!" William waited for a few minutes for his performance to leave the desired impact, "we are going to kite down these monsters in such a way."
It wasn't the first ti for him to use such an alien term to his old team mbers. But for the new ones, they were puzzled until old ones started to explain things over, feeling the power to be a veteran in the team.
"Ready!" Sara shouted a few minutes later. William wasn't feeling any pressure at all. But he just wanted them to take part in this grand victory.
Plus, the way he did it made the rest of the monsters here unsettled. They were more focused to rescue their entrapped mates than fighting against him. William didn't just kill them like a grinding machine, but also kept collecting cores.
He got lots of silver and gold cores just in the past few minutes. And when Sara shouted, he slowly retreated, "like before, Ibra, Sara, and Lang will handle the monsters and spread out. Berry and Peter will wait for a few minutes before attacking the main bulk of monsters. Then retreat and do the sa."
"Got it!" This shout ca from everyone around, as they got pumped up by this smooth and easy to execute tactic. William didn't really retreat like everyone thought, just went to one side, and kept killing the monsters non-stop.
This kept repeating for over ten tis. With each batch of new monsters getting entrapped, few hundreds would be killed. After close to three hours, they finally managed to kill the last monster here.
"Phew! I feel like I have never fought before ever in my life!"
"Fighting like this is fun, not a struggle at all! I can keep up doing this for days even!"
"Thousands of monsters? Hmph! I never imagined that I'll attack such grand number and end up winning!"
As the battle concluded, the new team mbers started to speak among themselves. They just saw how scary William was, and many couldn't even believe they pulled such a feat thanks to his simple and yet magically effective tactic.
Most if not all of them thought that they were going to just try out their luck and then run for their lives. Who knew they'd win in the end, and the monsters would be all killed.
"Gather the loot, and let's move out," during all this ti, the scout team kept advancing, pulling so distance between them and the main team. William received various intel about other groups of monsters. And he planned to go all out and start killing them all.
He gathered close to seven hundred cores alone from this battle. As for the materials and other cores, he left them for Berry to handle.
"Don't forget you still have lots of materials on you," William said with a wink. And she couldn't help but shake his head in a helpless way.
"Being this rich and care about having trivial materials and cores? Tsk!" It was Ro who said this. During all this ti, she followed Sara's team, and frankly put, she got shocked like never before.
She never expected the kid she once stepped in to rescue would wield and show off such power. Not to ntion she could easily tell the difference in his growing strength from back then and now. In her eyes, William wasn't any lesser than any proper gold grade spirit master, or even stronger.
And that was quite shocking indeed.
What really took her by surprise was his tactics. She fought in many battles before, like many others in the team. But she never thought highly of any fighting tactic. To her and other spirit masters, such thods were considered pretty damn useless, a cheap way to win.
But right now, she saw how by adjusting one's position, shuffling the fighting teams, luring the monsters and encircling them, they ended up killing thousands of monsters without losing a single mber of them.
The most they got was a few wounds here and there, mostly superficial and not serious.
"When are you going to give a team?" she said her next piece, "I want to lead one!"
She used to lead others, not to follow soone else. And seeing the vice leaders leading their teams over the place, fighting and killing while having fun, made her crave to be one of them.
"Soon enough," William paused, "when we get more mbers, I'll let a few of you be team leaders, ok?"
"Tsk!" she didn't like this answer, despite it made perfect sense. The current team was still small, lacking in numbers. And so, William couldn't even appoint her or Thomas as team leaders.
"But you already appointed a silver master, even bronze ones as a team leader!" she didn't drop her dream and argued, using Sith, Berry, John, Lang, and Peter as her argunt.
"Girl, if you moved faster and joined back then, then you might have secured a chance," William rolled his eyes, reminding her of how she dealt with him back then, "besides, do you want to go out there, doing nothing but scout and not fight?"
"Tsk! I want to lead and fight like them!" she showed a discontent expression over her face, as she motioned towards others.
"Positions in my team are decided by how much I trust you, not how strong you are."
"That ans… You don't trust ? Trust any of us?" she waved her arm and seed to plan for trouble.
"Just as we are fighting out here doesn't an we are this close," William simply shrugged, "I don't trust you, any of you. And this adventure isn't to do sothing for , but to test you, all of you, and see who will continue be with us and who won't."
He took a mont there before evilly grinning, "don't forget the last ti we t, you said you don't want to follow at all. Why are you complaining now of not leading a team?"
