[Jijalika111: An Event quest?!!!!!]

[Livia012: Damn! And here we are, barely scraping for field monsters! Just how lucky are these guys?]

[Invidia: Which server is this?]

[TristanBear: Damn! Do we have people from other countries, too now?]

[Enchanted: Seems like our boy Blaze has finally got the chance to make it big, haha!]

[RavenFannumber1: I LOVE YOU RAVEN!!!]

[Kirito00111: I wonder what the quest rewards will be.]

[Live Stream Count: 567,091]

I think we are now gaining many foreigners too. Link thought as he looked at the total stream count they had. The number of people with paid comments increased to more than 5000 at a time, and it was barely feasible for Link to make out more than a few of them.

Link knew that most of them would be gone by the end of today's stream, but if they were to be able to retain even 10% of the viewers, they probably wouldn't need to work for the rest of their lives.

As for the total number of subscribers on their channel, it has already passed beyond 50k, which was barely 500 before. Which was actually a good sign. And honestly, Link wasn't worried much about the growth right now either.

Especially since this Event Quest is probably the first Event Quest in all of Arcadia, something that would definitely garner a huge amount of attention.

Link looked at Ezekiel, focusing on him even more as he was analysing the surroundings with a serious look. The comments kept pouring in, some hating him, while many were excited to finally see him in action.

With this, it's going to explode even more than before. Link couldn't help but get excited as he turned to his best friend, Blaze. 

All the hard work, the nights, the efforts he put in streaming were showing their worth right now. Despite having such a sudden burst of viewers and subscribers, he didn't lose his touch, showing an even better engagement than before. 

His excited eyes were analysing everything, showing remarkable reactions that would make the audience laugh at times and make them curious at others.

All he needed was a stroke of luck… which finally came to him in this game.

Proud of you, brother. He spoke in his mind before turning back to Ezekiel who had a serious expression on his face. He had finished analysing and moving closer to the trio, he began speaking.

"Waves like these generally start with low-level monsters getting more difficult with each wave passing. The increase could be based on numbers, levels or equipment. Hence, it would be better not to go all out from the start."

He began explaining things briefly before he turned to Blaze and Raven.

"Raven. Blaze. Kill as many as you can in the first 5 waves. The number of monsters could be a lot but their levels would be low. Also, don't stop to collect the drops, just focus on killing as much as possible. While the time limit is 6 hours, I would like to end this within 3 hours." 

Raven and Blaze nodded silently before beginning to adjust their skills which they were going to use for now.

"Link, as for you, stay alive as much as possible. I would like for you to save your mana too while at it. We will be needing your help a lot from the 6th wave onwards," he added as he turned to Link before he nodded as well.

-Rawr! Rawr! Rawr!

And as they were formulating their plans the monster's cries echoed in the distance, as Zombies finally began rushing in from all sides.

[Linker01: Oh! Zombies, eh? Wish I was there!]

[Invidia: Hmmm? That's easy. Those are all level one.]

[TristanBear: Seems easy enough… wait… how many are there?]

[Invidia: 10…30… nope, the number seems far more than 50 or 60… damn!]

[RavenFan01: Raven, kill them all!]

[Invictus19: Whoa! Look at that guy walk forward without any hesitation.]

[Hazer01: Maybe he will die in a single attack, haha, lol!]

"All right. Follow the basics as I just explained."

As the comments poured in, Link saw Ezekiel taking out two of his daggers, his steps slow but steady reaching towards the foremost zombie that reached him.

-Slash!

[Critical Hit!]

And fell without even making a move.

-Slash! Slash! Slash!

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

And then as Ezekiel moved with minimal wasted movements, three more fell with their bodies slowly evaporating. And by the time they turned to ashes, 6 more critical hits resounded as 6 more zombies fell in a single combo.

Not even a minute had passed since the wave had started, and 10 were already down.

[Hazer01: … ]

[Enchanter091: Holy-.]

Standing there as he stopped, catching his breath which he barely lost, he turned to Raven and Blaze who just stood there dazed, observing the battle… no this was akin to a dance, a very beautiful dance.

"Let's hurry shall we?" He spoke with a calm smile, a bit serious, but kind of an excited one.
