Non-smiler ran around Cloud Peak City like a madman. In a short hour, he had lost four levels, and now he had lost his most powerful weapon. Non-smiler's pain was the most intense among all the players in the game.
When he commanded the guild members to climb up to the roof, Gu Fei and Xi Xiaotian had already skipped far away. Non-smiler only cared about yelling, "Chase after them! Chase after them!" The guild members were running around like headless flies. Quite a few of them lost their patience. Some actually ran out of Cloud Peak City to level up, some accepted a quest and went back to work, and some directly ran into the safe zone and said that they had something to do and quickly went offline.
In the end, it was just a game. Although Non-smiler was the core of the guild, everything had to be done for the benefit of the guild. Before the guild members had tasted any benefits, even the core members wouldn't be so unconditionally obedient. Before, this was nothing more than a guild activity, and they had to participate in it. That was why they came with the mentality of helping. But now, after a long time without any results, no one was willing to waste their time like this, except for Non-smiler's few best friends.
Non-smiler led these best friends through the streets and alleys to find Gu Fei, and constantly asked others in the guild channel if they had found anything. At first, there were people who replied "no", but later on, they were too lazy to bother with him, except for a few "kind-hearted people" with bad intentions.
"I saw that guy on Shell Street! I'm following him. "Imperial God Ming shouted.
"Keep an eye on him, we'll be there soon!" Non-smiler led his people and ran madly, but not long after, Imperial God Ming would immediately shout: "Ah, he turned a corner and disappeared." Non-smiler ran for nothing.
This repeated four times, and Non-smiler went crazy: "What the fuck are you doing?"
Imperial God Ming said mysteriously: "I feel like he has his eyes on me, otherwise why would I see him everywhere I go?"
Non-smiler felt like vomiting blood. Looking at his best friends who were still following him, he wanted to cry, but there were no tears.
Suddenly, he felt a shadow above his head. Looking up, he saw a figure flying down from the roof. The sword in his hand was raised high, and under the sunlight, it was a bit dazzling.
The tattered straw hat, the black cloth that covered his eyes, the long robe that fluttered in the wind, Non-Laughing only had time to shout, "Ah!"
After giving the non-smiler a head-on blow, Gu Fei landed on the ground. Then, he spun two steps on the ground, and two more blades landed on the non-smiler's body. Fire magic was activated, and amidst the flames, the non-smiler disappeared. Gu Fei took big strides and ran far away.
Only then did the non-smiler's buddies come to their senses, shouting and chasing after Gu Fei.
Once again returning to the Thieves Guild, Non-Smiler was sobbing in the guild channel. The guild members were numb to it. Come to think of it, the current level of Non-smiler was Level 25. In Reigning the Four Seas, he could be counted as one of the last few. Apart from that, he had also lost his exquisite dagger. Core member? In this early age where one needed to rely on strength and not connections to become a core member, most of the members only had one word in their minds: Bah!
After all, it was a new game, and a new guild would not be able to form much cohesiveness in such a short period of time. The reason they were able to organize such a large operation before was mostly because of the habits they had developed in the previous game. As soon as they saw that the guild was in trouble, they would quickly rush over to help. After causing such a ruckus for so long, that bit of inertia had already disappeared. Everyone reconsidered their values and benefits, whether or not it was worth it to help this level 25 non-smiler. The answer, of course, was no.
But not everyone thought this way. The other three core members of the guild felt that this matter had greatly hurt the reputation of Reigning the Four Seas. They were the number one guild in Cloud Peak City, and they were prepared to make a name for themselves in the game. It had only been a few days, and one of the core members of the guild had been killed like this. Wouldn't they become a laughing stock in the outside world?
The three couldn't take this lying down, but this was mainly from the perspective of the guild. As for Non-Smiler, it was purely because of his high level and good equipment that they had recruited him into the guild. They hadn't had the time to build a deep friendship.
In the end, the three core members came to a decision: they had to make an appearance. Otherwise, wouldn't Reigning the Four Seas be looked down upon?
At this time, news of Non-Smiler's sixth death had arrived.
Non-Smiler, who had been crying in the safe zone for a long time, saw that there didn't seem to be any reaction from the guild, so he cursed the fickleness of human nature. At this time, he received news from a few of his best friends, saying that the masked guy was being chased closely by them, and hadn't been able to shake them off. Non-Smiler was overjoyed. He rushed out of the safe zone and ran in the direction of the news, wanting to give Gu Fei a perfect interception.
In the end, he tried to stop them, but he couldn't. Gu Fei, who was striding towards him, kicked him to the ground, and stabbed him twice, ending his life. Non-Smiler's level dropped to 24.
After receiving this news, the three core members of Reigning the Four Seas could no longer sit still. They had to take action. After all, Reigning the Four Seas was founded by the three of them. Their rallying power in the guild was much stronger than Non-Smiler's. Previously, it was Feng Xing, the Grandmaster of Combat, who had raised his arm in the guild and rallied hundreds of guild members valiantly and energetically through the Cloud Crop Farm and into the Cloud Valley. They had thought that this matter could be easily resolved, but they didn't expect it to become so troublesome. Even now, the three of them still hadn't figured out the whole story! They only heard that the person who had been attacking Non-Smiler and the person who had just snatched his dagger weren't the same person.
Just as the three of them were about to take action, they suddenly received a message from the guild leader of Reborn Amethyst, July. She wanted to talk to the three of them face to face.
"Reflection, go and organize some people. Feng Xing and I will go meet her." Another core member of Reigning the Four Seas, who was also the guild leader, Unsworn Sword, said.
Not long after, the two of them met at the Little Thunder Tavern. In the whole of Cloud Peak City, only the Little Thunder Tavern had a private room. It was more convenient to discuss matters.
July, Luo Luo, Ardent and Little Rain came straight after leaving the safe zone. Unsworn Sword and Feng Xing were the only two. Before this, Feng Xing had already fought against the four girls, and had even exchanged a punch with Lie Lie.
"Which one of you is the guild leader July?" Unsworn Sword asked after sitting down.
"I am." July said. "Please wait a moment. We still have a friend who hasn't come."
As they were talking, Gu Fei rushed in. He lifted the curtain and shouted: "Sorry, I'm late." Gu Fei was busy today. He had to kill people and also come to participate in the negotiation.
When Gu Fei entered, Unsworn Sword received a message. Non-Smiler had been killed for the seventh time. He was currently Level 23.
Unsworn Sword didn't have the time to deal with it. He looked at Gu Fei and asked: "This is?" He had heard that Reborn Amethyst was a guild full of girls. He obviously didn't know about Gu Fei.
Feng Xing immediately introduced Gu Fei to him, emphasizing that this was the guy who 'snatched Non-Smiler's dagger'. Unsworn Sword was in awe. No matter what, someone who could directly snatch a top-tier equipment from someone else was a ruthless character. Unsworn Sword put away his sword.
Because they were going to negotiate, the four girls sat together on the left side, leaving the right side for the other two. When Gu Fei arrived, there were no more seats in the camp he belonged to. He had no choice but to sit in the middle facing the door. Those who didn't know would think that Gu Fei was hosting a meeting.
"How much do you know about today's matter, Guild Leader Unsworn?" July began to speak.
"This, I only know that our brother, Non-Smiler, was killed seven times in a row. He was also robbed of his top-tier dagger, Wind Secret Word. The source of this matter seems to be because of a bit of history between him and you, Guild Leader July? "Unsworn Sword said.
"Then, yesterday, during our guild mission, you guys deliberately caused trouble and killed twelve of our girls. Does Guild Leader Unsworn know about this?" July asked.
"I don't know!" Unsworn Sword was at a loss, turning his head to look at Feng Xing.
"Uh, yesterday, Non-Smiler seemed to have called people to PK with him in the guild. I asked him what it was, and he said it was nothing, just a small matter. Just a few brothers would be enough. After that, a few of them had nothing to do and went with him. Most importantly, he and his few friends! "said Feng Xing.
"Now, Guild Leader Unsworn, you know the source of this matter!" July said.
"Guild Leader July, what do you mean?" Unsworn Sword asked.
"Nothing much. It's a game, after all. It's all about fighting and killing. PK happens every day. It's just that, this matter was really caused by my personal relationship with Non-Smiler. So, if your guild wants to stand up for Non-Smiler, please don't look for trouble with my sisters and this friend. "July said as she pointed at Gu Fei.
"This, this friend seems to have stolen something from Non-Smiler, this …" Unsworn Sword wanted to use this matter to make a fuss, but unexpectedly, Gu Fei suddenly reached into his pocket and took out the Wind Secret Word and threw it on the table: "It's here, whoever wants it can take it."
Everyone was shocked. Although this was a dagger that wasn't very useful for Mages, it could still be sold to Thieves who needed it. It was definitely a considerable amount of wealth. A fat piece of meat that was already in their mouths, would they really let it go so easily? After hearing Feng Xing talk about Gu Fei stealing the dagger, Unsworn Sword thought that he was quite a brave guy. But looking at it now, it didn't seem like he was much! They hadn't even said anything and he was already afraid?
Unsworn Sword was laughing in his heart when Gu Fei stood up: "You guys take the dagger back. As for Non-Smiler, I heard that he's still being chased by people! Looks like no one can save him. Brother, a person like Non-Smiler isn't worth so many of you standing up for him. Just tell him that the condition for taking back the Wind Secret Word is for him to leave the guild. See what he'll choose. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first. You guys talk! "
Gu Fei said as he walked out of the room. He turned, walked past three rooms, and immediately entered another one.
"Where's the water I wanted? Hurry up and bring it over, I'm so tired." Gu Fei shouted as soon as he entered.
The Han family gentleman pushed a glass of water in front of him.
Gu Fei picked up a glass of water and gulped it down. Imperial Divine Cry said, "Unsmiler came out of the safe zone pretty quickly this time. He's leading a few people to curse and cry in the guild!"
"Damn! Why didn't you say so earlier! "Gu Fei threw the glass down and ran out.
"Non-Smiler really can't smile anymore." The Han family gentleman muttered.
