Hu Die Lan

Chapter 776 Striving for Exemption

Chapter 53 Immunity

"Two big bosses." Gu Fei saw Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang and felt troubled. These two guys were indeed familiar, and he'd give them face for other matters. But today's affair would greatly affect his pursuit! Although players weren't on his level, they were still better than wild NPCs. No matter how high-level the wild monsters were, once you understood their routines, it became boring. Players, on the other hand, even if they could be one-shotted, had slightly different details each time, which was more fun!

And these two before him, Gu Fei believed they weren't just seeking a peace agreement for themselves, but would definitely consider the overall interests of their guilds. As the two guilds with the most obvious strength in Cloud City, they already encompassed most of the experts. To promise to let their people off? That was too great a sacrifice.

There was a sentence that Gu Fei was too embarrassed to say. It was that in front of the City Hall, some people were simply being presumptuous. Gu Fei's initial shout was quite clear: "Experts, be careful!" Gu Fei intended to use the function of the wanted warrant to compete with expert players, but it had ended up making everyone feel insecure. In reality, those small and medium guilds, what experts did they have? Even their guild leaders might not be skilled enough, so these people were really overthinking it.

"Thousand Miles Brother, let's talk, give us some face." Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang both looked pitiful, and Gu Fei's heart softened, finally nodding. But in his heart, he was planning how to decline these two guys' requests. Favors were really troublesome, especially since this matter wasn't a major issue for Gu Fei, just a form of entertainment, so it was really difficult to refuse righteously.

"Let's go to Little Lei's Tavern, it's not far, Thousand Miles Brother is also familiar with it," Ni Liu Er Shang suggested.

Gu Fei nodded. He was originally planning to go to Little Lei's Tavern to meet up with his old friends anyway, which saved him some trouble.

Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang unusually didn't bring their brothers, seemingly wanting to express their sincerity. But Gu Fei had sharp eyes and a sense of murderous aura, and he quickly noticed that there were people peeking from the streets on both sides, probably from Zongheng Si Hai on one side, and Dui Jiu Dang Ge on the other. They were cooperating with their guild leaders, pretending to be passersby.

Gu Fei pretended not to know, and the three of them walked side by side to Little Lei's Tavern. Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang acted like hosts, one leading the way to find a seat, and the other directly going to Little Lei to order drinks.

Wuqi Zhi Jian led Gu Fei to a private room, and Ni Liu Er Shang immediately came in with wine.

"Please!" Wuqi Zhi Jian poured a cup for Gu Fei, ignoring Ni Liu Er Shang. At this moment, he really hoped Ni Liu Er Shang would disappear. So this guy didn't have the sense to sit on the outer side of the sofa, not giving Ni Liu Er Shang a seat. Gu Fei was kind and moved inward, letting Ni Liu Er Shang sit on his side. Wuqi Zhi Jian immediately regretted it, was Qian Li Zui such a kind person? Why didn't he know?

The three who sat down naturally raised their glasses to each other first. After putting down his cup, Gu Fei took the initiative to speak first. To anticipate the enemy and strike first, martial arts expert Gu Fei was very proficient in these tactics.

"Two big bosses, I understand your intentions, but this matter is really too difficult for me. To be honest, my purpose in this game is a bit different from yours. Equipment, missions, and the like don't matter much, but the opportunity to compete with people is what I don't want to miss the most. But I can't just go around killing people on the street, right? So, the wanted mission is the only way. Before, I was randomly accepting PK values, and eight out of ten were vulnerable, but now, with this wanted warrant, I can challenge experts every day, which I really don't want to miss." Gu Fei told the truth, his tone sincere and earnest. But Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang each made a retort.

"As expected, he's a PK maniac, I didn't misjudge that point," Wuqi Zhi Jian thought.

"Equipment doesn't matter? Give me your Dark Night Flowing Light Sword and robe if you have the guts," Ni Liu Er Shang thought.

"So, no matter what your requests are, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to accept," Gu Fei concluded, feeling that he had completely sealed off all possibilities.

Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang looked at each other. Wuqi Zhi Jian spoke, "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Ni Liu Er Shang retorted.

"My meaning is, shouldn't you avoid this first?" Wuqi Zhi Jian said.

"Why should I avoid this first instead of you?" Ni Liu Er Shang was unconvinced.

"Because you're closer to the door," Wuqi Zhi Jian said.

"Idiot..." Ni Liu Er Shang cursed, but still got up and left the private room first. Although these two guys came together, it seemed they each had their own plans and didn't want to interfere with the other party.

Ni Liu Er Shang walked out of the private room, and Gu Fei waited for Wuqi Zhi Jian to speak. Who knew that this guy would suddenly smash his fist hard against the wall of the private room next to him. This private room was completely custom-made by Little Lei and wasn't that sturdy. This punch almost knocked it over directly. Then, Wuqi Zhi Jian roared, "Don't eavesdrop outside, I can smell your stink!"

"Bullshit..." Wuqi Zhi Jian's voice was indeed just a wall away. This guy wanted to hear what Wuqi Zhi Jian was planning, and then listen to Gu Fei's reaction, as a reference. Who knew he would be seen through, so he had to walk away dejectedly.

"Guild Leader Wuqi, if you have something to say, say it quickly!" Gu Fei smiled. These two guild leaders were really enough of a joke.

Wuqi Zhi Jian also pondered for a long time before speaking, "After hearing Thousand Miles Brother's words, I'm too embarrassed to say my original plan. Now I only have one last request, and I hope Thousand Miles Brother will give me some face no matter what."

"What is it?" Gu Fei asked, thinking that this guy wouldn't be asking him to only let him off, right? If that was the case, it would be worth despising, and he would search for Wuqi Zhi Jian every day.

"Uh, if someone in our guild usually provokes trouble and gets PKed, I'm too lazy to care about them. But sometimes, as a guild, we will have battles with other guilds. At this time, I still hope Thousand Miles Brother can spare our guild's brothers." Wuqi Zhi Jian finally said his request. Gu Fei immediately started thinking when he heard this.

During team battles, the PK value generated by players was numerous and sufficient, which was a great opportunity for Gu Fei to carry out his wanted activities. But now Wuqi Zhi Jian wanted Gu Fei to give up this big cake, which he was really reluctant to do.

"Generally, these team PKs won't happen without warning. When the time comes, I will give Thousand Miles Brother a heads-up in advance, and you can give us a short-term wanted immunity for the whole guild. As soon as the battle ends, we will immediately wash the PK value clean, and we will definitely not interfere with your entertainment activities, what do you think?" Wuqi Zhi Jian said.

"This..."

"Of course, we won't trouble Thousand Miles Brother for nothing. We will send you a reward before each activity. As long as Thousand Miles Brother agrees, we can discuss the price." Wuqi Zhi Jian didn't just talk empty words and promised Gu Fei a heavy profit.

Gu Fei was silent for a long time, and finally sighed deeply.

"I think I still have to refuse you," Gu Fei said.

"Why?" Wuqi Zhi Jian had been admiring Gu Fei's expression changes, and originally thought there would be a lot of hope.

"I don't want my activities to have any restrictions. I didn't give you face, so of course you don't have to show me any mercy. In fact, you can also foresee that I will put you on the wanted list. Experts, especially high-ranking experts on the level leaderboard, will become priority targets. For example, if you, Brother Wuqi, have a PK value, you can immediately be careful." Gu Fei said.

"Wow, Thousand Miles Brother, you won't even let me off, that's too ruthless, right?" Wuqi Zhi Jian joked, he found that there seemed to be no hope, so he hoped to gain some special status in a joke.

"That's hard to say! It's always good to be careful," Gu Fei said.

Wuqi Zhi Jian's face turned a little green, but he still tried his best to squeeze out a smile. However, he didn't give up in his heart, there was always some way to move him. Wuqi Zhi Jian thought like this, but it seemed that this first round was hopeless. Wuqi Zhi Jian was very reluctant in his heart, but he still gave Ni Liu Er Shang a message: "Hey, it's your turn."

"How's it going?" Ni Liu Er Shang, who was waiting outside, came over while replying to Wuqi Zhi Jian's message.

"No hope!" Wuqi Zhi Jian deliberately打击Ni Liu Er Shang's confidence. (Lit. strike, suppress; to strike a blow against; to attack; fig. to defeat; to dampen; to discourage)

"Then I want to congratulate you." Ni Liu Er Shang was of course very happy that Wuqi Zhi Jian had failed, and he had already lifted the curtain and entered the private room in the message.

This time, Wuqi Zhi Jian was very proactive, shrinking inside to make room for Ni Liu Er Shang, but Ni Liu Er Shang didn't appreciate it this time, staring at him fiercely. But Wuqi Zhi Jian's skin was also the best in Cloud City, pretending to ignore him, and calmly sat in his seat drinking.

"Shameless, do you think you can stealth?" Ni Liu Er Shang said.

"What, can't I sit?" Wuqi Zhi Jian demonstrated his thick skin.

"Get out!" Ni Liu Er Shang roared.

Wuqi Zhi Jian reluctantly got up and patted Ni Liu Er Shang's shoulder affectionately before leaving, "Then I'll congratulate you in advance."

The two had a message dialogue, and Ni Liu Er Shang knew very well what this "congratulations" meant. This was a naked curse, but he didn't have the mind to care about it at this moment. He watched Wuqi Zhi Jian leave, and then watched him leave completely before returning to his seat.

Gu Fei had a helpless expression on his face, anyway, he was prepared to refuse whatever the other party said. He had to treat everyone equally! Wuqi Zhi Jian and Ni Liu Er Shang were both important customer sources for him, and he couldn't favor one over the other.

And Ni Liu Er Shang's ability to observe words and expressions was much stronger than Wuqi Zhi Jian's. Seeing Gu Fei's appearance, he guessed that he was just waiting for himself to open his mouth before refusing! Ni Liu Er Shang felt that the words he had originally prepared weren't very clever, and seeing Gu Fei's appearance now, he wouldn't humiliate himself. This guy's mind turned very fast, and he jumped his mentality directly to Wuqi Zhi Jian's last step just now. This guy unfortunately thought the same thing as the Wuqi Zhi Jian he hated: There's a long way to go, slowly get along with Qian Li Zui, and then work hard. If he could be as close to him as Jian Gui, wouldn't he also be let off?

Ni Liu Er Shang thought like this, so he wasn't in a hurry to speak, just looked at Gu Fei and smiled. Gu Fei was getting creeped out by the look and asked suspiciously, "Guild Leader Ni Liu, do you have anything to say?"

"I have nothing to say, what is there to say? I can't hinder Thousand Miles Brother from finding the fun of the game!" Ni Liu Er Shang said.

"Oh?" Gu Fei was really surprised, "Then why did you come?"

"Haha, I just met that guy Wuqi Zhi Jian on the road, so I simply came with him to take a look. You know, our Dui Jiu Dang Ge and them have always been rivals, so I have to pay attention." Ni Liu Er Shang quickly used Wuqi Zhi Jian as a pawn.

"Oh? Then what did you see?" Gu Fei asked.

"Looking at his appearance, his wishful thinking should have failed. If he really managed to get Thousand Miles Brother to give him face, then we would be in big trouble. In that case, I would have to shamelessly ask Thousand Miles Brother to give us the same treatment," Ni Liu Er Shang said.

Gu Fei laughed when he heard this, "Of course, I will treat everyone equally, don't worry!"

Ni Liu Er Shang also looked very happy when he heard this, and simply got up and said, "Then I'll take my leave first, we'll have a good gathering when we have the chance. I really want to discuss some mage-related things with Thousand Miles Brother, but I haven't had the chance!" Ni Liu Er Shang relied on the convenience of their two professions to find an opportunity to build a friendship with Gu Fei.

Gu Fei smiled and said, "Guild Leader Ni Liu, walk slowly, be careful when you have PK value!"

Ni Liu Er Shang was slightly stunned, and then understood Gu Fei's meaning. The expression on his face didn't change, but he was green inside, and continued to smile and say, "Of course, of course."

Watching Ni Liu Er Shang leave, Gu Fei let out a breath, and then, without showing any expression, quietly walked to the door of the private room next door and suddenly broke in.

There were five guys in the private room, who were all pressing themselves tightly against the partition wall. You Ge, Yu Tian Shen Ming, and Zhan Wu Shang even had a wine glass each, pressed against the partition to listen. Jian Gui and Han Jia Gongzi weren't as wretched and eager as the three of them, but their attention was clearly also over there. However, when Gu Fei broke in, both of them noticed. Jian Gui immediately became embarrassed, but Han Jia Gongzi's expression was as usual, sitting steadily, as if nothing had happened: "You're here."

"I'm here!" Gu Fei knocked on the table, those three guys were still趴那听呢! (pā nǎ tīng ne - a dialect phrase meaning "still squatting there listening!")

The three guys turned their heads and saw Gu Fei, saying in unison, "Is it over?"

"It's over," Gu Fei nodded.

"Huh?" You Ge was a little disbelieving, "This Ni Liu Er Shang, he just left like that? This guy, could it be that what he said was true?"

"How is that possible? He's retreating to advance, it would be idiotic to rush to talk about this at this time. Slowly build friendship, cultivate feelings, and when the time comes, the crisis will be resolved naturally without saying anything," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"Ni Liu Er Shang's scheming is indeed deeper than Wuqi Zhi Jian's," You Ge sighed.

"But too much scheming is not a good thing. Look, our Thousand Miles Hero is now clearly disgusted with Ni Liu Er Shang. Wuqi Zhi Jian spoke directly, but took the lead," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"Thousand Miles Hero, what are your inner thoughts?" Yu Tian Shen Ming pretended to be interviewing.

"Whatever should be, that's what will be, there's nothing to consider," Gu Fei didn't consider this a problem at all.

"Free and easy, so free and easy," Yu Tian Shen Ming said.

"That's why I said, it's really great to know Qian Li," Zhan Wu Shang said again.

"Enough!" Gu Fei also pulled a face, and Zhan Wu Shang quickly shut up and shrank into the corner.

"I have something fun for you," Gu Fei said to Han Jia Gongzi.

"Oh?" Han Jia Gongzi was extremely surprised, and the others were also stunned, but Jian Gui quickly remembered something. As expected, Gu Fei took out the magic pointed hat and threw it to Han Jia Gongzi: "How about it, dare to wear it?"

Han Jia Gongzi picked it up and took a look, nodding and saying, "The stats are not bad!"

"The shape is also very good, right?" Gu Fei said, and the others were all smirking.

"Shape?" Han Jia Gongzi lifted the hat and looked at it a few times, "Is the shape important? I don't believe there is anything in this world that can ruin this Gongzi's beauty."

"Damn!" Everyone gave him the middle finger, despising him. This person's shamelessness and narcissism defeated even such a ridiculous hat.

"Are you sure you don't want it?" Han Jia Gongzi asked Gu Fei.

Gu Fei waved his hand, he was a person who cared about face, he really couldn't wear this hat, it was too childish! What if his students saw him, how would he be a teacher in the future?

"Do you need me to give you money?" Han Jia Gongzi asked.

"Take it, take it!" Gu Fei of course didn't need it. So this guy accepted it very calmly. Gu Fei was about to say something else when the wall of the private room rang, someone knocked a few times and carefully asked, "Is Qian Li Yizui here?"

Gu Fei recognized the voice as being a bit familiar and quickly replied, "Who is it? Come in."

Two people came in, and Gu Fei turned around and saw Duomu and Mudu. Helpless, he had really been too popular lately.

"Uh, is it convenient?" Duomu and Mudu were also familiar with Gu Fei, and there was no need to explain their intentions.

"You guys go ahead!" The other five people prepared to avoid giving up their seats, they didn't have anything serious to discuss here anyway. Not all the rewards had been claimed yet, and the guild merger had to be reviewed.

"Don't! You are all famous experts, if it's convenient, we would also like to interview your opinions," Duomu and Mudu said.

The experts felt very comfortable hearing this, so they all sat down one after another, "Speak, what questions do you have?"

"Uh, it's about the widely rumored immunity rights that major guilds are fighting for," Duomu said.

"Immunity... rights?" The others looked blank.

"Yes, Qian Li got new equipment, which is said to be able to determine the wanted target by searching for an ID, right?" Duomu asked.

"It's not equipment, it's a prop," You Ge was the first to speak.

"Yes, it's called a wanted warrant," Zhan Wu Shang said.

"The reward is a warrant upgrade, so there's this new function," Yu Tian Shen Ming said.

"Qian Li, do you have anything to add?" Duomu asked Gu Fei.

"No..." Gu Fei said.

"We also went to the City Hall just now, and heard that you have rejected all guild immunity applications? So what conditions are required to successfully apply?" Duomu asked.

"Beautiful and rich. Like Xi Yao Wu, the first to be exempted," Yu Tian Shen Ming answered first this time.

"Brothers, real brothers, like me, are Qian Li's real brothers!" Zhan Wu Shang said seriously.

"Noobs, and noobs, I don't think Qian Li is interested in noobs, he will only search for experts," You Ge said deeply.

"Qian Li, do you have anything to add?" Duomu asked.

"Why not just interview them?" Gu Fei suggested.
