The news that the lord of Pondenorlin City could be slain spread quickly, drawing in a flood of players with noble titles. However, only a handful dared to make a move. Everyone knew there was only one chance to challenge the boss. Rushing in first to chip away at its health would only serve to benefit someone else in the end.
For the top-tier players, securing a noble title by completing the quest became the priority. Even though challenging Bibienne meant a high chance of becoming cannon fodder, it was clear that in the later stages, guilds eyeing Pondenorlin City would be willing to spend a fortune hiring players to grind down the boss's health.
"Demon Emperor is using a world shout to rally players against Bibienne. Does he seriously think he can steal the kill?"
"Heh, that's a dangerous gamble. If Demon Emperor actually manages to take over Pondenorlin City, he'll have a reckoning coming."
