With a flash of light, Fangzheng appeared beside the teleportation crystal. He raised his head and looked around.
According to the information obtained from Black-Snow Girl and Argo, the group of PvP players called "Smiling Coffin" were mainly active on the second, third, and fourth floors. They would not appear on the first and fifth floors. The reason was simple. The fifth floor was currently the main floor where the clearers were located. The levels of the clearers were all first-rate players. Unless Smiling Coffin was crazy, he would not take the initiative to kill himself.
Meanwhile, the first floor was the main headquarters of many Guilds. After all, only Fangzheng's Darkmoon Sword possessed a Guild Residence. The other Guilds still treated the first floor's Town of Beginnings as their main headquarters for the time being. If they encountered a Guild leader leading their own Guild members on the first floor, they'd be courting death.
Therefore, the second, third, and fourth floors were the better choices at the moment.
The situation was not right.
After leaving the safe zone, Fangzheng glanced around and his expression sank. He was currently in the material collection area of the second floor. Logically speaking, there should be a lot of production-type players collecting materials here. But in fact, Fangzheng only saw some players in guild uniforms gathering materials nearby. The rest of the area was deserted. It was not as lively as before.
Criminal players ….
Fangzheng stopped near the safe zone for a while, then walked deeper into the forest.
As he went deeper into the forest, there was no one around. Fangzheng stopped in front of a collection point and began to collect materials. His material collection level was not high, but Fangzheng did not care. After all, he was not here just to collect materials.
"Hey, little brother."
As expected, just as Fangzheng finished gathering the materials and stood up, he saw seven to eight players walk out from the nearby bushes. They wore armor and held all sorts of weapons in their hands. They surrounded Fangzheng with smiles on their faces. They looked no different from ordinary players, but the arrows above their heads were not the ordinary green, but orange. This was the symbol of criminal players.
The arrows of players who committed theft, injury, or murder in the game would change to orange. After turning orange, they could not enter the town to resupply because they would be attacked by the guards. Moreover, other players could also attack orange players at will.
If this were an ordinary MMORPG, these orange gamers wouldn't be so arrogant. However, in this death game, they seemed to have found their own joy. After all, in this place, killing someone would really mean death. Most people might be afraid of this, but for some players, they seemed to have found the meaning of their lives.
"You actually dared to come here alone. You're quite bold."
"Who are you? What do you want? "
Looking at the orange players surrounding him, Fangzheng knitted his brows and asked in a deep voice. Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, the orange players widened their mouths, revealing disgusting, wolf-like smiles.
"It's simple. Hand over all your weapons, equipment, and money. If you do that, we can spare your life."
"Hahahaha."
Upon hearing the orange player's words, the other players also laughed. Fangzheng's eyes turned even colder.
"What if I don't? Do you still want to kill me? "
"That's right. We're members of 'Smiling Coffin'. "
The orange player revealed a sinister smile.
"Killing a few people is nothing to us, isn't it?"
"… Aren't you afraid of being punished?"
"Are you kidding me? Who's going to punish us? This is a game world. There's no evidence to prove that we'll really die if we kill you, right? There's no evidence at all. We can't treat it as a crime when we get back. Besides, we don't even know if we can make it back. Who cares about this! "
The orange player suddenly waved his hand.
"I'll say it again. Hand over everything you have, or else …"
Before the orange player could finish his sentence, Fangzheng suddenly swung his sword. The pitch-black greatsword swept across the air and split the orange player's body into two. The man's upper body spun in the air for a moment, then shattered into pieces with a bang.
"— — — —"
The laughter of the others came to an abrupt halt. They widened their eyes in horror as they looked at Fangzheng. It was not because of his ruthlessness, but because of his offensive power. This was not the real world, but the game world. Although they were not top players, their levels were still relatively high. Otherwise, they would not have come out in groups to rob others.
But now, the person with the highest level among them was killed in an instant?
This could only mean one thing – the man in front of them had a higher level than them!!
He was a player from the Clearers!!
Since Fangzheng was not wearing the Darkmoon Sword uniform, nor was he equipped with high-level Player equipment, nor did he take out his signature Beast Cutter, but only an ordinary Beginner cloak and low-level Player equipment, the orange players naturally mistook Fangzheng for a low-level Gatherer Player.
"What are the Clearers doing here?"
"Kill him!! He must have a lot of high-level equipment and items!! "
After a moment of shock, the criminals finally reacted. Although they were a little afraid at first, the greed in their bones instantly took over. No matter how high the enemy's level was, there was only one of them, while there were more than ten of them! Ten against one, not to mention that they had seen blood before!
That's right!
The criminals became more and more pleased with themselves. They had killed several players who resisted, and for them, the orange symbol was not some kind of check and balance. It was more like a badge of honor. In fact, most players who saw the orange symbol would be so frightened that their legs would turn to jelly and they would cry for help. This made the orange criminals feel extremely satisfied.
And now, they were like a pack of wolves, pouncing on their prey.
"Hahahaha, die!!"
"Die! Die! Taste our power!! "
However, even as he listened to the roars and screams of the criminals, Fangzheng did not say a word. He just raised the greatsword in his hand and swung it forward with all his might.
With a flash of his sword, two orange criminals were instantly killed. Following that, Fangzheng turned to the side and dodged a surprise attack from behind. Then, he raised his sword and slashed at the third criminal who pounced at him to die.
If the orange criminals were like a pack of wolves, then Fangzheng was like a highly efficient killing machine. He was cold, silent, and fast.
Clang!!
The one-handed sword flew out. The criminal screamed and fell to the ground. He stared at Fangzheng with wide eyes in horror. In the blink of an eye, all the orange criminals besieging Fangzheng were wiped out, leaving him alone.
"Please, please, don't kill me … .Don't …."
Feeling the cold touch of the greatsword on his neck, the criminal felt the fear of death for the first time. The feeling of imminent death almost paralyzed him.
"Tell me how many people are in the guild, their list, and where they are currently active, and I won't kill you."
Fangzheng clenched the greatsword in his hand and stared coldly at the criminal in front of him. Killing was no longer a problem for him. Whether killing was right or wrong was something only a little girl like Asuna would consider. However, Fangzheng had killed no less than tens of thousands of people in various worlds, so he did not care about the thoughts of these criminals.
As a Paladin, upholding justice was his job.
For Fangzheng, killing these people was not a big deal. It did not matter whether they would be convicted in reality, but in order to make this world more peaceful, Fangzheng did not mind using more extreme means to curb the negative impact.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you now … .I'll tell you right now."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the criminal nodded repeatedly. He quickly opened up his system interface and switched to a form that others could see and showed it to Fangzheng. After checking the list of the members in the guild and their locations, Fangzheng nodded and sheathed his greatsword.
"Okay, you can get lost now."
"Thank, thank you, thank you!!"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the criminal hurriedly stood up as if he had been pardoned and ran towards the exit of the forest. As he ran, he looked back and found that Fangzheng was still standing there and had no intention of chasing after him. The criminal breathed a sigh of relief and ran even faster towards the exit.
That bastard!!
The criminal cursed in his heart as he ran forward. But right now, all he wanted was to leave this place. As long as he left this place and returned to the guild, he would bring the guild leader and the powerhouses of the guild to find this man, torture him, and kill him ….
But that was the end of his beautiful dream.
Just as the criminal was about to leave the forest, a thin sword shot out from the nearby forest like lightning and hit the criminal directly. In an instant, dozens of holes appeared on his body. The next moment, accompanied by a huge impact and a scream, the orange criminal turned into data fragments and disappeared into thin air.
Lestia walked out with a thin sword in her hand and a smile on her face. On the other side, Aster also walked out of the forest with a longsword in hand.
It did not take long for Fangzheng to appear in front of them.
"Okay, I got the list. Let's start hunting."
It's time to cut off your ears! ()
