Hu Die Lan
Chapter 908 A Temporary Respite
The Unsworn Sword had clearly tasted success in the previous battle. The people he fought were experts comparable to him, with dazzling equipment. Their companions, even if dropped into the Guild of Mercenaries, would definitely be top-tier figures. The loot those guys dropped kept surprising the Unsworn Sword during the inventory process.
At this moment, the Unsworn Sword's greed was overflowing. He impatiently rushed to Very Heaven to ask about the situation, not even bothering to send a message. He wanted to see Very Heaven's response with his own eyes.
"Oh? Guild Leader Unsworn is determined to fight these guys who bully Cloud City players to the end?" Han Family's Young Master asked.
"Absolutely!" The Unsworn Sword puffed out his chest.
"That's perfect, then. We've gathered some information about these guys here. Guild Leader Unsworn, take a look, this is where they come from." Han Family's Young Master pushed a pile of materials in front of the Unsworn Sword. This information was an evolution from the previous one, with You Ge digging up some information about the equipment of these experts from forums and other places. Now it was all laid out here, extremely tempting to the Unsworn Sword, who was purely focused on the equipment. Drool almost slipped down his chin.
"These guys must be severely punished!" The Unsworn Sword declared his determination, though it was unclear if he was targeting the equipment or the people wearing it.
"Then we'll have to trouble Guild Leader Unsworn," Han Family's Young Master said.
"Where are they now?" The Unsworn Sword asked.
"It's written above," Han Family's Young Master said.
"Where, where?" The Unsworn Sword looked left and right, but didn't see anything like coordinates. The only address information was the main cities of these guys.
"You don't mean this, do you?" The Unsworn Sword pointed to someone's main city information.
"What else could it be?"
"This... they're not coming?" The Unsworn Sword's question was a bit silly.
"Waiting for them to come isn't as impressive as Guild Leader Unsworn taking the initiative!" Han Family's Young Master said.
"This... it's a bit far!" The Unsworn Sword stuttered a little. He realized that these people weren't giving him information, but were making fun of him.
"The Guild of Mercenaries once crossed six main cities to complete a reward mission, this distance is nothing, right?" Han Family's Young Master relentlessly said.
"This, this... I need to consider it, consider it," The Unsworn Sword said.
"Then go consider it quickly!" Han Family's Young Master dismissed the Unsworn Sword.
Mirror Image Flower and Wind Walker weren't happy to see the Unsworn Sword being put down. They originally didn't agree with immediately asking Very Heaven for information again, but the Unsworn Sword was blinded by the equipment he had looted and insisted on his own way. Now that he couldn't back down, they felt a little bit of vindictive satisfaction.
If the Unsworn Sword just left like that, it would be too embarrassing. Sword Ghost stood up at the right time and said with a smile, "You don't need to worry about these people for now, they're all offline."
As soon as the Unsworn Sword heard Sword Ghost speak, he suddenly perked up as if he had been resurrected and quickly asked, "What's next?"
"Next? We don't know either. Guild Leader Unsworn, please keep an eye out. Let's share information if anything happens," Sword Ghost said.
"Okay, okay," the Unsworn Sword nodded repeatedly, trusting Sword Ghost's words.
"Then I'll take my leave." Having obtained Sword Ghost's promise, the Unsworn Sword left with satisfaction.
"Could this Unsworn Sword have been bought off by Ying Qi?" After the Unsworn Sword left, You Ge suddenly asked everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, and no one could come to a conclusion. The Unsworn Sword was sometimes a bit of an idiot, but that was also why he would sometimes do things that ordinary people couldn't expect. This kind of behavior was generally referred to as "dumb." When this guy got into one of his "dumb" moods, no one could really guess what he would do.
"No matter what, the other side is offline. Take this time to do your own things. When they come back online, we can also go offline and rest," Sword Ghost said with a smile.
Everyone smiled upon hearing this. If others go offline, we also go offline, which means we're following their rhythm. The smart thing to do is to use their offline time to relax and wait for them to come online before we rest. Anyway, this matter is basically initiated by the other side, so Very Heaven isn't in a rush at all. What's more, there's also the Unsworn Sword leading the Guild of Mercenaries and insisting on rushing to the front. This guy, it seems that being the number one guild in Cloud City is no longer enough for him. Does he want to quickly arm and strengthen himself to unify the world?
The people of Very Heaven scattered, leveling up, doing quests, and leaving their base one by one. Sword Ghost stayed behind and picked up the information on the table, falling into contemplation again.
The players of Very Heaven listened to Sword Ghost's instructions and, although they moved freely, they still maintained vigilance and basically did things in groups of three or five. They were all slightly wary of the people from the Guild of Mercenaries, obviously, You Ge's "Unsworn Sword being bought off theory" was quite popular.
Everyone in Very Heaven, from the original members to the Ten Guild Brothers brought by Yun Zhong Mu, was well aware of their current situation. None of them felt scared. On the contrary, some guys felt quite proud. Being targeted by the strong people of the entire world, the weight of Very Heaven was evident!
The night passed peacefully. Gu Fei packed up the quests in Cloud City and also left. The quests still frustrated him, most of them were about the Very Heaven people. And others were also annoying. They originally had a fluke mentality, and when they saw Qian Li Zui really come to find them, they immediately begged, saying that they were just about to turn themselves in and asked Qian Li Boss to give them a chance.
The first person to do this was someone, and Gu Fei softened his heart and let him go. Later, it was unknown whether this method had been spread, but all the players with PK values that Gu Fei found would immediately say that they were just about to turn themselves in, so don't bother, old man.
"I'm just using the excuse of the wanted quests to PK... When will I really become a constable who can send people to the dungeon?" Gu Fei looked at the PK carriers who were scrambling to run from his sword to the dungeon to turn themselves in, feeling a bit lost.
Apart from this little episode, this was a rare peaceful night in recent days. The players of Very Heaven did their own things with satisfaction. Those who needed to rest rested, those who needed to do something did something, and they all dispersed.
After resting for the night, the big shots re-entered the game, greeted each other, and then collectively went offline and entered their discussion group.
This was the first time that all thirty-one people had gathered here. Even those who were still in jail and had not yet been released had received a message from a visitor. Everyone first offered their condolences in the discussion group, especially to the few poor people who had been reduced to level 40 and jailed by Qian Li Zui's pursuit and attack, who received the most attention. After that, the focus of the problem converged on how Yin Sha Zhi was exposed.
After a night of calm, everyone was seriously considering the problem. No one was emotionally laughing at Yin Sha Zhi for being ambushed anymore. Now everyone was really in the same boat.
"I thought about it all night," Yin Sha Zhi, the person involved, said, "The problem should be on the narrow mountain road from Moonnight City to Cloud City. This is the only passage connecting Cloud City to the outside world. If someone is guarding here, then anyone walking from an outer city to Cloud City cannot escape their eyes."
"It's that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple, that's enough," Yin Sha Zhi said.
"So, the other party may still be insisting on using this method?" Someone said.
"If it were me, I would never miss such an effective and easy-to-do method," Yin Sha Zhi said.
"So, no matter what, we can't walk into Cloud City?"
"Impossible. There are always very few players traveling between main cities, so even if we mix in and enter separately, it will be enough to arouse suspicion," Yin Sha Zhi said.
"So, we can only use teleportation scrolls," someone sighed.
"Ying Qi has also said it, we can't get them for free, but we can get a discount, let's all go through Ying Qi!" someone said.
"This problem is not a problem." Bao Du Feng Shuang had been in jail for a whole night and had not yet been released. Who let him have a high PK value and be sent in with a wanted warrant? He had to sit for two hours! Compared to the others who had a good sleep, he was obviously a little tired, but he was still as thoughtful as ever: "The problem is, we've gone to Cloud City again, what do we use to fight Very Heaven?"
"There is information that Ying Qi helped us find out." Yi Deng Di Wen sadly announced: "The thousands of opponents we faced in the second ambush were the largest guild in Cloud City, the Guild of Mercenaries, and the sixth-level guild Cai Yun Jian."
"What is the concept of a sixth-level guild? I think you all should know best, right?" Yi Deng Di Wen said.
Of course, they knew very well, because all of them were guild players and came from sixth-level guilds. A sixth-level guild doesn't just mean the largest number of people. Being able to push a guild to the sixth level is itself a symbol of strength. It can be said that 70% of the elite players in a main city are divided by sixth-level guilds. To some extent, a sixth-level guild in a main city represents the strength of that main city.
The big shots would not underestimate any sixth-level guild. The problem was that the information they had obtained before was that the players in Cloud City had prejudices against Very Heaven, so they would definitely not give them help. As a result, this absolutely impossible thing actually became a reality. If two sixth-level guilds intervened, twenty people each was not enough. What about the assassination plan they had planned earlier? How should it be carried out? Should these two sixth-level guilds also be included?
If these two are included, will there be a third? The judgment of the relationship between Very Heaven and the Cloud City players has obviously been a mistake. Even the sixth-level guilds, which represent the elite forces of the main city, are standing on the side of Very Heaven. Is it even more likely that other guilds will also stand on this side?
They were all mixing in sixth-level guilds, so who didn't know that a sixth-level guild was always accompanied by many other small guilds? How many such backup forces did the Guild of Mercenaries and Cai Yun Jian have, or were the people they sent out last time just backup forces, and their regular guild army had not yet been activated at all?
One question after another was raised and analyzed. In the end, everyone found that after sleeping, they were much more energetic, but the problems seemed to become more complicated and difficult with the improvement of the information. They originally thought it was just a cross-city kill of a small guild with a few top experts, but what about now? The appearance of the sixth-level guilds in the main city seemed to have evolved the matter into a cross-city attack.
That's right, it's not impossible for the sixth-level guilds to take the lead and create a situation where the entire city's players are united against foreign enemies. No matter how extraordinary the big shots were, they would not dare to be enemies with a city! What's more, they didn't dare to consider themselves extraordinary anymore. There were only a few people in the room who were still at the top of the level list.
"Everyone, the situation is very serious!" Bao Du Feng Shuang said very heavily.
"It's absolutely impossible to fight against a city. Even if we pull over our thirty-one guilds, I don't think we'll have a good chance," someone said.
"Besides, that's根本impossible," Yin Sha Zhi said, "First of all, let's not talk about how many people in the entire guild are willing to go. Even if they are all willing, one thousand people, 250 scrolls, I don't think even if Ying Qi is willing to provide them for free, he can't take out so many teleportation scrolls at once, right? So, we can only walk, which will involve the mountain road in the Wulong Mountains. That road is not only the only one but also easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as they find us, they can easily make a pocket array at the exit of the mountain road. Hundreds of people can deal with tens of thousands of us. There's no way! We can't open up the formation on that narrow mountain road at all. Even if we have millions or thousands of people, we can only use dozens."
"Are you sure that's the only road?" Yi Deng Di Wen asked.
Yin Sha Zhi was stunned: "We went from Moonnight City, and the information we gathered along the way was that road. I searched the forum yesterday, and no one said that there was a second road."
"If there is a road, players will naturally not bother to find a second one," Yi Deng Di Wen said.
"With the real map mode of Parallel World, it's hard to believe that there is only one road between two main cities!" Bao Du Feng Shuang said.
"But the left and right sides of that mountain road are cliffs. Even if there are other roads, they must not be near it," Yin Sha Zhi said.
"Of course, it needs to be away from it."
"Okay, let's take a step back. There are other roads. So what? Are we really going to bring a sixth-level guild each? Then I have to say that I don't have that much energy to bring our entire guild over," Yin Sha Zhi had to put his words out first. He was the core of the guild, an expert, but not the guild leader after all. Moreover, even if he was the guild leader, it was impossible to force more than a thousand people in the entire guild to make such a long-distance trek, the purpose of which was only to help a core member of the guild win a reward, or to avenge the twenty members of the same guild. No matter which statement, it was impossible to mobilize a thousand people. There were no guilds that were so united in online games at all. The united, active, and active people in the guild were actually only a part of them. There was also a part that was a nominal diving party. They couldn't refuse activities with collective interests, so they had to participate, but when they encountered something related to private grievances, few guilds were united enough to dispatch the entire guild.
