The Battle Queen They Blindly Kicked Out (Joanna) novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167 The Black Cloak Effect

Joanna’s attributes was no weaker than Alwyn’s now. When she released the light of the Eternal Sun, the wraiths let out sharp screams. In seconds, they broke apart and turned into a black mist, then vanished.

The members of the frontline unit were stunned.

“These monsters are way too dangerous,” one of them said. “Good thing you’re here. What should we call you?”

“My name is Joanna.”

“Ah-Joanna.” A man who looked at least 30 bent slightly as he spoke. “Ma’am, please rest for now. Once our base is built, we’ll assign you a house. We’ll make sure you’re comfortable.”

Joanna didn’t correct how he addressed her.

In this world, strength spoke for itself.

Skill decided status. Being called “ma’am” or treated with respect didn’t bother her.

If she had shown her face, things would have been more complicated. People might have asked where she studied or tried to build connections. Some might even try to cling to her.

The cloak saved her from all that trouble.

“No need,” Joanna said calmly. “I’ll only stay a few hours.”

The frontline unit looked disappointed. With someone like her guarding the area, their survival rate would be much higher. But since she didn’t want to stay, they didn’t push it. After a quick goodbye, they went back to work.

Joanna summoned the Crimson Throne, lay back on the couch, and kept eating fruit.

Eating fruit increased her attributes. Her stomach was the only limit, so she just kept eating slowly.

Chapter 167 The Black Cloak Ef

Just then, a portal flashed. Another team in black cloaks stepped out.

It was Ivan and Salem’s group.

“Joanna?” Ivan asked. “Did you run into enemies? How strong were they?”

Joanna lowered the Crimson Throne, thought for a second, and said two words, “Instant kill.”

Ivan paused. Yeah. That was a pointless question.

“Alright then,” he said. “We’ll go explore on our own.”

They waved and moved on.

The frontline unit stared in confusion.

Another team in black cloaks? And they know Joanna too?

To them, it looked obvious. These people were all from the same organization, and Joanna was clearly the leader.

Joanna had no idea what had happened back in the dungeon plaza.

While Ivan’s team was preparing near the portal, more people gathered nearby and overheard the message he passed along.

Most of them had graduated from the SAT trials just three days ago. They had talent, but many of them didn’t have as many dungeon clears as Joanna.

A lot of them had always been protected. They had never entered a public dungeon, mainly to avoid being targeted by other races.

This was their first time in a public dungeon. Naturally, they were nervous.

“So this came from Joanna? Wearing a cloak can stop the local assassins from assassinating us? That actually makes sense. She’s that strong-she wouldn’t say it for no reason.”

“What? This is a guide Joanna figured out herself?”

“Got it. Everyone, put on a black cloak. Joanna’s got us.”

More and more people believed it. They changed into black cloaks and entered the Gate of Hell.

Once inside, they saw Joanna and came over to greet her.

Joanna felt a bit confused. She sensed that people were suddenly much friendlier, so she simply nodded back.

When they asked about monster strength, she answered honestly.

But remembering how her last reply had left Ivan speechless, she chose her words more carefully this time.

“Most of the wraiths are around level 25, but there are some bosses who are much stronger,” she said. “Explore carefully. Or you can stay here and earn credits. Living people seem to attract wraiths.”

Hearing this, everyone felt that the top-ranked player was surprisingly modest. They thanked her for the advice.

Whenever monsters appeared, Joanna stepped in to help. If a powerful boss showed up, she erased it in an instant.

That made the students who were just here to earn points trust her even more.

Joanna was in a good mood too.

The feedback felt different from online praise in strategy groups.

Here, real people were thanking her-for her strength, her judgment, and her suggestions.
