Counterattack System appeared when I’m already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 455: Chapter 454: Driven Out by the Hero Team, Then Meeting the Invincible Person

The Guild Lady appeared utterly stupefied, she had been working at the guild since she was sixteen and, over the passed decade, she had never heard of anyone registering as an adventurer in the Mahayana Realm.

What the heck was the Mahayana Realm?

“Hello, are you looking to register as an adventurer? Allow me to introduce you to the adventurer ranking system.”

“There are several ranks to being an adventurer. After successful registration, you will become a Junior Adventurer. As you fulfill tasks, you will gradually rank up.”

Indeed, she had ten years of work experience, and her way of dealing with such irregular inquiries was to recite the guild’s protocol. If the enquiry couldn’t be satisfied, she would repeat it.

“Even though I’m a level-five warrior, I must start my adventure from the beginners’ rank?”

“Yes, that’s the rules. Adventuring levels correspond to task levels. Strength cannot decide everything. Tasks are unpredictable, and without previous experience, relying solely on adventurer levels may endanger you.”

“Indeed, strength cannot decide everything.” Jiang Li agreed with this view.

For instance, even if he was stronger than the Dao Ancestor, he couldn’t immediately find the Immortal Realm. To reach it, he needed to complete a series of tasks.

Jiang Li had only just become a rookie adventurer when someone began to make a fuss.

“Isn’t that the up-and-coming Hero Party?”

“Could it really be the legendary Hero Party, the most likely to defeat the Demon King and save the world?!”

“I heard their prowess is unparalleled. They’re all level five, and their leader decapitated an ancient dragon, bathed in Dragon Blood and earned the title Dragon Slayer!”

In the world of Eira, ancient dragons were different from the dragons of the Jiuzhou clan. Ancient dragons resembled a gigantic lizard with wings.

Jiang Li was familiar with ancient dragons as he had heard about them in the Western mythology of his previous life.

“I wonder how strong this ancient dragon is.”

The center of attention, the Hero Team, paid no mind to other people’s reactions. They were busy resolving their internal conflict.

“What? You are expelling me from the Hero Team?” Lans thought he had heard wrong.

Though he joined halfway through their journey, he served as both a magician and a tactician who was responsible for strategizing battles, lending magical support to his allies, and attacking enemies.

Back then, the heroes on his team were generally level-three but they were promising. Lans believed that his team had what it took to slay the Demon King and emerge as true heroes.

He had always been dedicated during his time in the Hero Team without any mishaps. Even slaying the legendary ancient dragon had been thanks to his tactics. If he hadn’t been prepared, his team might have been annihilated.

He never thought that the team leader would expel him.

What had he done wrong?

“What, do I need to repeat it?” Dragon Slayer Andewood retorted coldly.

“Lans, we don’t need you. This was not my decision alone. It was the consensus of the entire team!”

The other members remained silent, but their expressions conveyed enough.

Lans was clueless, he had recently returned from visiting his family, and everything had changed.

“The reason, I need to know the reason.”

“You dare to ask for reason? Your presence is a drag and is impeding the pace of the team in slaying the Demon King.”

“Yes, I agree that your ‘assessment’ skill is very helpful, and your tactic strategies assist us.”

“Then…”

“But your tactics are too conservative.”

“Do you remember when our team decided to fight the three-headed Hell Dog? Everyone was eager, it was only you who threw cold water on the idea. You said it wasn’t the right time to fight the Hell Dog. The challenge was too great, and we needed to prepare.”

“What’s wrong with that? If we were able to defeat the ancient dragon back then, it was because we had the skills to counter it and were well prepared; but the Three-headed Hell Dog is different. The compatibility between it and us is terrible. Its skills counter ours. If we were to fight it forcefully, our victory rate would only be 60%.”

“I don’t care about your success rate, I only know that while you were visiting your family, we defeated the Three-headed Hell Dog.”

When these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Just like the ancient dragon, the Three-headed Hell Dog was a legendary magical beast, an entity that humans couldn’t conquer. The Hero Team actually slew two of them in a row!

Above level five is the legendary level, and so far, no human has reached this level.

“This is all thanks to our newly recruited magician. He is just like you, a magician and tactician.” At Andewood’s side was a stranger who had just joined them as a magician.

The newly recruited magician grinned, “Lans, you’re too conservative and lack courage. To defeat the Demon King, how can we do it without hot-blooded courage?”

“With my command, along with the seamless coordination amongst the team members, overcoming the Three-headed Hell Dog was just a matter of course.”

Lans roared in anger, “You think I didn’t consider those too? When fighting the Three-headed Hell Dog, I did the math – there was a 60% chance of winning, a 30% chance of losing, and a 10% chance of being annihilated!”

“You lot just know about rushing forth with a hot-blooded spirit but have you ever considered the consequences of failure? Life is once-and-done, lose it and you lose everything!”

“So Lans, did you incorporate the team leader’s property of bursting in danger into your calculations?”

The new magician found Lans laughable. As a member of the Hero Team, how can they think of failure before battling?

His mindset is not suitable.

One characteristic of Dragon Slayer Andewood was that when it comes to facing dire circumstances, or when his teammates are in danger, he would burst out with a tremendous power.

No one could explain this phenomenon.

“Andewood’s outbreak is too unpredictable and unreliable. What if he couldn’t burst out when it was crucial?”

“Lans, which famous adventuring team from history did not forge fearlessly ahead? Your cowardice is not suitable for the Hero Team.”

“Then how many adventure teams, fueled by courage but short on strategy, have fallen by the wayside?”

“Lans, since you don’t believe in me, let’s just proceed as planned and leave the team.”

“Everyone’s touching the fringe of becoming legendary, a breakthrough is imminent. By then, it will be our turn to slay the Demon King. If you’re around, you will surely create obstacles and dampen our morale.”

Without saying anything more, Lans decided to leave the Hero Team. Initially, he must have been blind to have thought that this team could conquer the Demon King.

The Demon King’s level was above the Legendary one.

Brimming with rage, he removed his gear and stormed off, leaving the Hero Team behind.

Lans is a bona fide level-five magician, and the moment he left the Hero Team, numerous teams came forward, hoping to recruit him into their ranks.

The conduct of Lans’ Hero Team hit him hard. He no longer wished to talk about adventure, let alone slaying the Demon King.

He was thinking about retirement.

“How about teaming up with me? Let’s slay the Demon King together. Let me introduce myself, my name is Jiang Li, and I just got registered as an adventurer.”

Lans’ eyes focused, he found that he could not see through this man by using his ‘assessment’ skill.
