Hu Die Lan

Chapter 326 Hostage Plan

Yingzuka Yuezai's suggestion was indeed quite lewd, embarrassing many of the surrounding players on his behalf. But lewd methods often have miraculous effects. Didn't you see that Shui Shen's expression changed drastically after hearing this, and he couldn't help but shudder? Even so, he quickly adjusted and comforted himself, "Don't worry, that's impossible. The system has restrictions!!"


The system does indeed have restrictions in this regard, which were adjusted during the first overhaul after the initial violent incidents. So in the parallel world, it's okay to voluntarily strip naked and be an exhibitionist, but trying to commit rape will encounter technical obstacles. But don't think that this allows you to be a free and unrestrained perverted exhibitionist; the system closely monitors such perverted behavior.


This is much easier than a real-world police officer catching a thief. Once the system detects such behavior, it immediately destroys the account, and the player's identity is blacklisted. Moreover, the game company has stated that it reserves the right to sue the judicial authorities. Once other players file a complaint, your troubles will shift from the virtual to the real world.


Therefore, since the game's launch, except for the immature first day, no such incidents have been discovered.


At this time, Shui Shen kept encouraging himself with these rules, maintaining an indifferent attitude. Looking at the players surrounding him, they were obviously at a loss, and Shui Shen once again revealed a complacent smile.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian really couldn't bear this anymore, and he swung a fist and smashed it into Shui Shen's face. The other players behind him quickly cleared a path, and Shui Shen was sent flying.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian had long since taken the rope tied to his foot from Zhan Wu Shang, and now he personally controlled it. After smashing Shui Shen away, he quickly pulled hard and dragged him back again.


Shui Shen wiped the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Doesn't hurt at all!" Saying that, he stood up again and glared at Wu Shi Zhi Jian, "But I've remembered this punch..."


"Still threatening me!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian was furious and wanted to throw another punch, but suddenly two hands landed on his shoulders from the left and right at the same time, saying the same thing: "Let it go!"


Wu Shi Zhi Jian stopped and looked to the left and then to the right. On the left was Gu Fei, and on the right was Piao Liu. The two were now looking at each other, obviously surprised that the other had come out to stop him.


Gu Fei had been there all along, but Piao Liu had just emerged from somewhere in the crowd. Shui Shen squinted at him and then smiled, "Piao Liu, what's up? Wandering over to Cloudrise City?"


Piao Liu nodded, "I didn't know you ran over to this city either."


"It's been a while," Shui Shen said.


Everyone looked at this one and then at that one. Wu Shi Zhi Jian originally wanted to ask Piao Liu why he hadn't said anything before about knowing someone in Lin Yin City, but the two's continued conversation quickly answered this question—Piao Liu didn't know that Shui Shen was in Lin Yin City.


Although Piao Liu was a Five Little Strong-level mage, he was the most ordinary kind. In this situation, it was impossible for him to stand on the outermost edge like Gu Fei. Gu Fei quickly captured a live target, and those who actually witnessed this were the players in that position; the others heard about it through word of mouth. While discussing it, they also had to continue to pay close attention to the direction they were monitoring. Piao Liu also left their area and ran over here after hearing Shui Shen's name.


"Are you friends?" Wu Shi Zhi Jian frowned and looked at Piao Liu.


There are advantages and disadvantages. If they are friends, the good thing is that maybe Shui Shen will do them a favor and let them go; the bad thing, of course, is that they are embarrassed to make things difficult for Shui Shen because of Piao Liu's face.


As a result, today really wasn't a lucky day for Zong Heng Si Hai. Piao Liu replied faintly, "I guess so~" This tone showed that the two definitely didn't have much of a relationship. On the other side, Shui Shen saw through Wu Shi Zhi Jian's thoughts and sneered, "Even the closest friends are useless. A bunch of brothers are following me, and I can't only be accountable to myself."


Wu Shi Zhi Jian wanted to swing his fist again, but Gu Fei advised, "Forget it, hitting him is useless. Besides venting your anger, it won't solve anything."


"Hmph, this brother is pretty smart," Shui Shen had a good impression of Gu Fei.


"Let's find a way to break through first. Just kill this guy if he's useless," Gu Fei continued.


"Damn, you're so ruthless!" His impression plummeted.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian pondered for a moment, glanced at Shui Shen, and said, "This guy seems to be quite loyal. Since he's so anxious for his brothers, shouldn't his brothers appreciate his loyalty? Pull him to the front and shout to his brothers, threaten them."


"Naive, really quite naive. Being out here, this kind of situation is within expectations. Our guild already has an agreement that it's impossible to abandon the interests of the entire team for anyone, including myself. Try it if you don't believe me!" Shui Shen remained calm.


"Go!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian waved his hand.


As a result, Gu Fei was by his side and ignored him. He turned around and left, obviously not wanting to do this. Shui Shen laughed loudly when he saw this, "This brother has character, I appreciate you!"


Wu Shi Zhi Jian ordered Gu Fei, but he didn't comply, which was embarrassing. But he couldn't lose his temper, so he called a few of his own brothers to do it. Before they left, they wrapped Shui Shen tightly a few more times, and Wu Shi Zhi Jian held the end of the rope tightly, finally feeling relieved to let him be taken away.


At this time, Dao Ying Nian Hua was directing the arrow formation group to continue firing wildly. After Shui Shen was escorted to the front, the firepower temporarily ceased, and the people of Zong Heng Si Hai began to shout according to their boss's instructions: "People in the forest, listen up! Your boss is now in our hands. Immediately put down your weapons, disarm the traps, and leave the forest, otherwise, go to the resurrection point to pick up your boss!"


After shouting once, there was no response.


"Shout again in a few seconds!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian said.


"A few my ass! Kill him quickly, stop dragging it out. Looking at you, the guild leader, I can tell your guild has no future," Shui Shen became impatient.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian ignored him and personally came to the front: "People in the forest, listen carefully. I'm counting to three now. If you don't do what we said before, we'll kill your boss and you can start over. I'm starting to count now!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian seemed to be a little impatient too. He had just said a few seconds, but at this moment, he temporarily changed it to three.


"One!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian roared.


No response.


"Two!" He roared again, but there was still no response. Wu Shi Zhi Jian had already slowly raised his greatsword.


"Three!" After shouting, Wu Shi Zhi Jian swung his greatsword down. He was definitely not intimidating; he didn't have much hope for this method anyway. Since it was useless, he would just kill Shui Shen. Anyway, whether Shui Shen lived or died, the situation was the same for them. Killing him would be a way to vent his anger and boost morale.


"Wait!!!"


Just as the sword was about to strike, a voice suddenly came from the forest.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian's eyes lit up, but he didn't retract the sword he swung down. This was just a normal attack. Wu Shi Zhi Jian wasn't strong enough to be able to kill with a normal attack, and he originally wanted to swing a few more times. Now that the other party had finally spoken, he only swung this one sword and didn't continue.


"Who shouted wait!!!" Shui Shen was the first to be angry.


A person walked out from behind a certain tree, looking like a mage. He glanced at Shui Shen, who was being held in Wu Shi Zhi Jian's hand by the scruff of his neck and looked very embarrassed. His expression revealed a bit of pain. Finally, he turned his gaze to Wu Shi Zhi Jian, "We'll disarm the traps, let him go!"


"Are you fucking drunk? What was our agreement!!!" Shui Shen roared, "Don't worry about me!!!"


That person didn't even look at him, only looking at Wu Shi Zhi Jian.


A victorious smile appeared on Wu Shi Zhi Jian's face, "Loyal and righteous, truly a good bunch of brothers. Once the mission is over, everyone might as well become friends. Please!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian gestured.


The mage waved his hand, and several archers emerged from behind the trees and began to disarm the traps. Their movements showed that their skills were extremely proficient.


Wu Shi Zhi Jian scanned around and then said coldly, "The traps I'm talking about are all of them."


The mage didn't say anything, but he was obviously sending a message in the channel. Before long, countless archers emerged from behind the trees and began to disarm the traps. The sheer number of people greatly surprised the Cloudrise City players.


Not counting those that were blocked from sight, there must have been at least two hundred people within sight, right? Zong Heng Si Hai had already done its best to develop the guild level, but it was only at level five, with a total of 750 people. Believing that the other party was at most at this level, the guild actually had more than two hundred archers, and they had all changed their job to trappers. Wasn't this job balance a bit too outrageous? And looking at their busy appearances, it seemed that each person had set more than one trap. Wasn't each trapper only able to set one trap?


While everyone was marveling, these trappers had already finished their tasks. They disarmed the traps and stood aside, quietly watching the Cloudrise City players. The mage looked at Wu Shi Zhi Jian and said, "Okay, let him go!"


"Idiots, you bunch of idiots," Shui Shen seemed to be both angry and touched by his brothers' righteous rescue, muttering with his head buried.


"Yue Zai, go take a look!" Wu Shi Zhi Jian gestured.


Yingzuka Yuezai nodded and stepped forward, walked around nearby and carefully inspected before turning around and nodding, "No traps."


Wu Shi Zhi Jian was very satisfied. This feeling of being in control of victory was really great, and he couldn't help but want to show off his grandeur. He smiled very dashingly at the other party and said, "Also want to ask, which direction is Lin Yin City?"


"That way," the mage pointed in a direction. This direction was exactly where Yingzuka Yuezai had just inspected, and Wu Shi Zhi Jian nodded reassuredly. "Thank you." In a happy mood, Wu Shi Zhi Jian's demeanor was even more impressive. He politely replied and said, "Once we leave, we will naturally release brother Shui Shen."


After saying that, he adjusted the team and was ready to move in that direction. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly walked out of the team, waved his hand lazily, and said, "Wait a minute!"
