The first wave of ambushes was very secretive. Just like the first wave of ambushes against Singing for Wine, there was no news of it at all. Obviously, the untrustworthy players did not participate in this operation at all.
Unsworn Sword, who had just received the news, was dumbfounded. He wanted to watch the show from the sidelines, who would have thought that he would suddenly become the number one target? Taking off their badges, gathering people, Unhindered naturally operated in the same manner. For a time, the big guilds in Cloud Peak City who wore their badges proudly disappeared. Everyone hid their badges in the deepest part of their pockets. Seeing a player without a badge on the street would cause them to be terrified. Once they confirmed the identity of the other party, they only had three choices: run, kill, or be killed.
Thus, at this time, someone suggested that messing around was not a good idea, and that everyone should wear their badges at the same time, so that the killing would be clear.
"Which side will win?" Gu Fei asked.
In the end, there really was an idiot guild leader who thought this was a brilliant idea and led everyone to wear their badges. As a result, wherever they went, they became the most obvious target and were the first to be killed! Amidst the cursing, those who wore their badges all took off their badges. The guy who suggested this before had become the enemy of the people.
"It's quite urgent." Young Master Han said.
But he did not expect it to escalate to the level of a city-wide drama in such a short period of time. And the cause of all this trouble was very heaven-defying. At this time, they were all squatting in the dungeon, aloof from worldly affairs. They could not be any safer.
Although large guilds like Against the Current wouldn't be wary of these small guilds watching from the sidelines, these small and medium-sized guilds also had their own rivals. They didn't compete with Rank 6 guilds, but they had competitors from Rank 4 and Rank 3 guilds of the same level. Some of the guilds that had already participated in the war discovered that their rivals were actually watching from the sidelines. How could they allow this to happen? Thus, they learned the spirit of Against the Current and dragged their rivals into this chaotic war between guilds that no one knew the reason for.
Against the Current was not stupid enough to rely on the strength of their own guild to fight against the many. He had already begun to search for allies, and the first one he found was Unsworn Sword. It was not hard to understand. It was precisely because they were all competitors that Unsworn Sword had to be dragged into the fray. Otherwise, they would have to deal with Unsworn Sword at the cost of their own lives. Wouldn't Unhindered Four be able to take advantage of the situation?
In the end, the players in the guild hurriedly came back with more bad news. The Singing and Wine players were ambushed in the leveling area. In the few minutes that they went against the flow, 37 people had already died. Among them, two teams of 21 people were directly wiped out.
Sword Without Oath was indeed not as good at judging the situation as Going Against the Current. Their main advisor, Reflection of Years, had a bit of a tactical mind, but he often made a fool out of himself when it came to strategy. They were also watching from the sidelines as if they were going against the current, but Going Against the Current was faster than them. They had determined that A Thousand Miles Drunk's advantage and rushed over to express their goodwill. When it came to this matter, the person who was in the lead would be able to reap the benefits. When all of the players in Cloud Cloud City stood on Thousand Miles Drunk's side, Unhindered Four Seas and whatnot, then they would declare their position. How could they go against the current and obtain the promise of a high-level VIP?
Amidst the praises, Going Against the Current quickly finished assigning tasks. The first thing to do was to remove all of their guild badges so that the other side would not be able to confirm their identity. Next, they had to quickly assemble and return to the city to rescue themselves at the Mage Academy.
Going Against the Current couldn't ask, and even more couldn't go out and try. Right now, being trapped here, they had nowhere to vent their grievances. They hadn't even done anything yet, and they had already died a level. Was there still any justice in this world? Going Against the Current wasn't in a hurry to call for his brothers to rescue him. Instead, he sent a message to Gu Fei and the others. Although it wasn't voluntary, coming to this point, he would just treat it as a ruse to injure himself! Going Against the Current felt that if he died for this, he should at least let A Thousand Miles Drunk or something be moved.
"Singing and Wine." The Han Family young master didn't hesitate.
The battle situation escalated rapidly. It was even more chaotic than Moonlit Night City. Inside and outside of the city, every inch of land had become a battlefield. Apart from players under level 10 who were protected by the PK system, almost everyone was thrown into the battlefield. Although a large number of people didn't belong to any guilds, in this chaotic battle, because the guild emblem had become a symbol, everyone took it off. Therefore, those who didn't belong to any guilds without the emblem were often mistakenly killed.
Everything was just as the Han Family young master expected. Outside the Mage Academy, both sides mobilized their main forces and engaged in a fierce battle. In the end, Singing and Wine had the upper hand. Their magic formation was quite powerful in such a small area. A row of spells blasted out, and within thirty meters of the street, not a single blade of grass could grow. Cloud Among Mudi and the others had no way of dealing with such an offensive. After both sides lost a few dozen levels each, they tested the waters. Cloud Among Mudi and the others didn't risk their lives and chose to retreat instead. Right now, there were many opinions in their alliance. Although they had the advantage in numbers, Cloud Among Mudi and the Black Index Finger didn't dare to rely on numbers to kill their enemies.
This time, there were more players participating in the battle against Reigning The Four Seas, and everyone was more patient. It didn't matter if they were alone or in a party, killing monsters or completing quests. As long as they were from Reigning, they could be targeted.
After resting for a few minutes, Upstream re-entered the game. He tried to think of happier things, such as being forcefully disconnected from the game by the System. Fortunately, he was at the Resurrection Point, so there shouldn't be any losses from forcefully disconnecting from the game. As he thought about it, Upstream went online to check again. As expected, there were no losses. "See, there's still hope in life!" Upstream said to himself.
Upstream's meaning was clear. Unsworn Sword wants to take advantage of our battle to take advantage of us. That's impossible. That despicable bastard. Even if he has to die, let's send him on his way first. Let's take this opportunity to kill Reigning The Four Seas together.
"Don't you have any teleportation scrolls?" Gu Fei asked.
Below the major guilds, there were always many guilds with friends. A few of the big brains were looking for helpers, and in this aspect, Unsworn Sword had a slight advantage. Among the Colorful Clouds! He could fight for the position of the fifth major guild in Cloud Peak City. At a time like this, Gu Xiaoshang would not be so disloyal as to not help him.
This was a scene that Unsworn Sword had fantasized about, but he never thought that such a day would actually come. At this time, he could no longer care about asking for benefits from Gu Fei and the others. He could only play Tai Chi with Upstream, saying things like, "How can I interfere with the feud between your guilds?"
After receiving this reply, Upstream could not help but feel agitated again. Due to the two consecutive heart abnormalities in such a short period of time, the System kicked him out of the game without hesitation. As a result, this forceful kick was the third heavy blow to Upstream. Upstream, who would have been fine after a short rest, had no choice but to swallow a few Heart Reliever Pills in order to survive.
Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others had no choice but to give up. They had already realized that this matter with Against the Heavens might not end well. Moreover, after what Thousand Miles Drunk had done, their guild's vitality had been greatly damaged. What was more terrifying was that they had already offended Thousand Miles Drunk. Who knew when this person would calm down? If he continued to kill Muyun Guild and Black Alliance members, the two guilds would disband sooner or later. There was also the group of tigers and wolves in the dungeon. They were probably also holding their breaths! Once they were all out, how many of them would be easy to deal with?
Upstream knew that Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others had shed all pretenses of cordiality. They might as well make the first move and take the initiative to fight against Wine When Songs. In a moment of desperation, the System's alarm rang again. Since he had just suffered a relapse, the System did not dare to be careless and directly kicked him …
Han Family's young master was also shocked. The development of the situation had exceeded his expectations. When Gu Fei said that Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others were going to go crazy, Han Family's young master had a feeling that there was going to be a show. But when Upstream died, Han Family's young master immediately told Gu Fei that the show was about to begin.
Unhindered had always been the biggest guild in Cloud Peak City, but now that everyone knew that Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others were going after them, Against the Heavens, Unhindered was surprisingly calm this time. Unhindered had always been known to be brainless, but this time, they were even calmer than Upstream. This made the outside world wonder if Unhindered Sword had forgotten something.
"As expected of the guild leader!" someone said. "The more critical the situation, the calmer he is!"
"Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others will also take the initiative. They probably know that there will be a fierce battle over at the Mage Academy," Han Family's young master said.
The Wanted Quest Office was no longer an important place. At a time like this, who would have the time to clean up PvP? And so, when Gu Fei and Han Family's young master arrived, they saw that the previous tight security was no longer there. Gu Fei couldn't help but rush into the Wanted Quest Office. When he came out, he said incoherently, "So many monsters …" All the players with PvP value were treated as monsters by him.
Half of my heart attacks are because of you guys! Upstream cursed under his breath, but he didn't dare to get too worked up. Everyone in the guild was confused by the guild leader's behavior, but Upstream acted as if nothing had happened, calmly presiding over his work. This surprised everyone. Even though the guild leader had always been a rational person, that didn't mean that he wasn't angry. How could he be so calm when the guild was being ambushed?
"How many idiots do they have to be to escalate things to this extent?" Han Family's young master sighed.
Upstream couldn't be sure if Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others had truly fallen out with him, or if it was just a moment of impulse. If they really did fall out, they would definitely defend him to the death. If it was just a moment of impulse, they should have calmed down by now, right? Even if he was calm and went against the current, he would definitely seek revenge. But right now, would these guys make a move on him?
Unsworn Sword didn't have much intelligence, but he wouldn't lose to anyone when it came to petty tricks. Moreover, he had been a guild leader for a long time, so he had a keen intuition. When Upstream looked for him, he immediately realized that his reaction was too slow, but he was late for another opportunity. The other big guilds in Cloud Cloud City were fighting each other, and they had completely preserved their strength.
Cloud Peak's Mudi and the others had too many people guarding here, so many that they couldn't set up an ambush in the market. As soon as Upstream reached the entrance, he saw a group of malicious players staring at him. Upstream's heart skipped a beat, and he stopped in his tracks. He could imagine why there were so many people guarding here, but why did he have to catch up to them?
Unsworn Sword's rhythm was slower by half a beat, but he ended up seeing more of the scene. Going against the flow was a moment of foolishness. He didn't follow behind Thousand Miles Drunk to help him and accidentally pushed himself to the front. Unsworn Sword, who was about to look for Gu Fei, hesitated when he saw Against the Current and Mudi's battles, especially after Against the Current took the initiative to contact him …
In the end, Gu Fei didn't have the chance to taste this feast, and Upstream caught up. After reviving in the Mage Academy, he was fuming with anger. He immediately called for people in the guild to take revenge, but just as he was about to step out of the Mage Academy, he suddenly froze.
The guild members were quite confused when their guild leader went offline in a few minutes. Wasn't he just telling everyone to gather for a tough battle? Just as a bunch of people were puzzled, Upstream returned to the game. Everyone hurriedly came to ask. How could Upstream say that he was so angry that he had a heart attack? He could only say that he went to the toilet.
"Then you're finished. There must be a lot of people in the Mage Academy, and they definitely won't be able to come out." Gu Fei said.
Gu Xiaoshang happily joined the battle. Cloud Cloud City's guilds weren't idle at all. Those who were familiar with the big guilds had already brought their people to stand with them. Those who were watching from the sidelines and didn't want to participate were being lobbied round after round. The relationship between the guilds was complicated, and the guild leaders who were being lobbied were confused. Before, they thought that Wine When Song was fighting Shepherd Clouds, but suddenly, they were fighting Reigning the Four Seas. These two guilds should be together, right? But both guilds had people coming over to lobby for them, and it made people feel like they weren't together …
Both sides immediately came to a temporary truce and began to rearrange their plans. Poor Unsworn Sword was still in the dark. Reflection of Time also thought that they had encountered a rare opportunity, but they didn't know that their decision would put them under a dangerous wall, and the wall was about to collapse.
Gu Fei and Young Master Han walked towards the main city as if nothing had happened. On the way, they saw a group of people gathering at Wine When Song. These two were too familiar to Wine When Song and Young Master Han knew each other, but they didn't take the initiative to greet them. Wine When Song and Young Master Han were obviously more impatient and quickly left the two behind.
"Of course, Upstream is trapped in the Mage School." Gu Fei said.
"Nope."
Mudi of the Clouds and Black Index Finger had been fantasizing about how they would defend the Mage School after killing Thousand Miles Drunk. The two wanted to ambush a million soldiers here.
In the end, they received Thousand Miles Drunk's reply, "See, I told you there would be trouble. And you said you were fine. Be careful next time! "
The gathering was already underway, and the people from Wine When Song and Young Master Han were heading towards the main city from all directions. Going Against the Current had no other choice, so he solemnly declared to Gu Fei and the others that he was going to uphold justice.
"Brother Thousand Miles, I'm trapped in the Mage School now." Upstream continued to try to gain sympathy.
"Thank you." Gu Fei's indifferent tone almost made her go against the flow again. He really wanted to hear the other party's extremely touched voice, even if it was fake.
"You're so sure?" Gu Fei said.
The smaller guilds were at a loss. They wanted to wait and see, but this would lead them to the same tragic path that Sword Without Oaths had taken before: they would be shot even if they waited …
The guild channel of Reigning the Seas exploded in an instant. In the first wave of attacks, 142 people from Reigning the Seas were killed. This was a huge loss. The enemy's attacks were obviously crazy.
Chasing Thousand Miles Drunk and dealing with Overpowered, Mudi of the Clouds and the others had long since forgotten about it. They only knew that they had no future. But now that all the players in the city were going to lose a lot of levels, they were very excited. They fought hard and charged towards destruction with the others.
"The inside of the city is different from the outside. It's controlled by the terrain, so the advantage of numbers isn't easy to show. Even though there's a plaza outside the revival point, it's perfect for Wine When Song and the others. If I were Mudi of the Clouds and the others, I wouldn't be defending there. I would leave a few people to lure Wine When Song's main force over. Then, I would form an encirclement from multiple streets to make use of the advantage of numbers. Even so, Wine When Song and the others casually choose a direction and break out of the encirclement won't be a problem. There's a difference in the quality of the players. "Han Family's young master said.
Upstream was furious when he saw that Sword Without Oaths was trying to reap the benefits. If it wasn't for the fact that the system was focusing on him, he would've cursed at them already. Reigning the Seas wanted to be alone. Upstream would never agree to that, even if it meant perishing together. With that in mind, Upstream decided to go all out and negotiate with Mudi of the Clouds and the others.
The entire Cloud Cloud City was in flames. Compared to Moonlit Night City, this had never happened before in Cloud Cloud City. The revival points were filled with people, all of whom had revived. The revival point was also the main battlefield. Controlling the revival point was equivalent to controlling the enemy's combat power. As a result, the enemy side would take over the position, and the other side would fight to the death.
After receiving this reply, Upstream received a system notification saying, "Your heart is abnormal." He was almost cut off from the game before the game finally calmed down.
Mudi of the Clouds felt that his future was bleak when he thought about this. In the end, Upstream asked him to destroy Reigning the Seas with him. Yun Zhong's Mudi really liked this suggestion. After all, they were already a group of people with no future. Before he died, it would be nice to drag a few more people to the grave with him, especially Unsworn Sword, who had long since disliked him.
