"What did you say? Say it again! "
The group of Class One Hall elites in front of the diviner's stall had their faces twitch repeatedly. They practically could not believe their ears.
A few people who were standing further away from the group could not help but ask the diviner the same question again.
The diviner might have charged a lot of money to perform a detailed divination on a martial artist, but he was not stingy when it came to repeating what he said before. He combed his old goatee and answered, "The Moksha Realm martial artist you want to investigate has indeed obtained an ultimate technique over the past few days. The other abnormality is that he fell from Punishment Mount, and he has a chronic illness."
'A chronic illness!'
This was a professional way of saying the diviner would punish a player after they died. It meant that the player's status had been weakened, and as for how much they had been weakened, they would need more money to investigate further.
However …
That one sentence alone was enough to deal a huge blow to the dozen Class One Hall elites.
It was fine if he died in Happy's hands.
He had used his full strength and was nearly killed by their Grieving Needle, but the diviner had told them clearly that Happy had fallen from the mountain a few days ago and died. His status had been weakened by ten percent, and there was no way they could accept it. It was as terrible as suddenly being told that the brat had not used his full strength after he had suffered a loss while fighting against someone.
The group's mood was incredibly terrible!
Perhaps some players did not care too much about dying once.
But as their attributes increased, their fighting abilities increased by leaps and bounds. The stronger the player was, the more obvious the weakening effect would be.
The death penalty for dying once meant that a player's attack, defense, speed, recovery speed, and even attack speed would be reduced by ten percent.
They could not even defeat Happy when he was injured, but they were still worried about whether Happy would be tortured to death by Grieving Needle.
By the looks of it …
If Happy was at the peak of his condition, they would have lost and died even faster!
At that moment, the group of prideful elites had their expressions turn incredibly dark. They no longer had the mood to care about those things. They quietly returned to the hotel, took out some wine, and drank it.
He Yi wanted to send this news to Dream Clouds, but when he thought about how major things had happened this time and how the hall master had definitely investigated everything about Happy in detail, he could not help but feel his heart turn cold, and he said falteringly, "Brothers, the situation is bad …"
"We've already embarrassed ourselves to death. How bad can it be?"
The group did not even bother to raise their eyebrows.
"It's just too embarrassing. If the people outside know that we didn't even manage to kill an injured Happy and even died …"
The group of people jumped up like cats whose tails had been stepped on! His face was filled with terror!
"You mean …"
"Hall Master already knows?"
"I'm afraid they found out about it from the Internet. That's why they asked us to go offline immediately …" He Yi smiled bitterly.
The group's faces turned pale.
"…"
If this news spread out, Class One Hall might be even more humiliated.
…
He Yi and the others' worries and speculations were not wrong.
Dream Clouds had indeed seen the entire process of He Yi and the others being completely oppressed and killed by Happy online. At that time, she did not pay much attention to it, but since the battle replay this time was rather long, she could dig out a lot of information about Happy.
But what she did not expect was that all of Happy's information would be attached to the battle replay.
Someone bought all of Happy's information from a diviner!
There was a row of bright red words in the message, and it stung Dream Clouds' eyes.
He had a chronic illness!
This discovery caused Dream Clouds, who was shocked by Happy's strength, to have her expression change. She quickly scrolled down to read the comments, and her expression turned even more sour.
"What great skills! What powerful methods!"
Dream Clouds practically hissed these words through gritted teeth.
"Ring …"
Her phone rang!
She cast a glance at the caller ID and picked up the call without hesitation. "Did you see it as well?"
"…"
The person on the other end of the line was silent for a while before a faint sigh rose. "I didn't expect that after one and a half years, he would still be so strong."
The voice on the other end of the line clearly belonged to Blood Robes.
Both of them were still in contact, and by the looks of it, their relationship was still the same as before.
"You're wrong."
Dream Clouds stared at the snow outside the window with a dark expression, and her tone was cold. "The Happy in the past was nothing in my eyes."
"…"
The person on the other end of the line fell silent again.
What Dream Clouds said was right.
Before she became comatose, Dream Clouds already had great power, and there were not many who could stop her from doing anything in the Chinese server.
Happy might be pretty strong and had some talent in fighting, but compared to Class One Hall, Happy was undoubtedly a praying mantis in front of a carriage. They could easily crush him.
In the past, they had only mobilized a small sect called Five Venoms, and they had already reduced Happy's strength to its lowest point.
But Blood Robes' situation was different from Dream Clouds'.
Dream Clouds liked to look at a person's achievements, which was why she cared more about Happy's fighting talent and strength. That was why she attacked Happy during the Sword Among Us Tournament at Mount Hua. She used Xu Yao's misunderstanding toward a non-existent text message and a card that temporarily lost its ability to communicate with her, and with some words, she practically destroyed Happy from the inside out.
Blood Robes remained silent for around ten seconds before he asked again, "Are you saying that the current him already makes you feel threatened? Or are you saying that he makes you angry?"
"…"
Dream Clouds' expression had already become calm.
She thought about it and said, "I can't be certain right now, but I have a feeling that Happy doesn't give me the feeling of a comatose person who has been lying in bed for one and a half years."
"I've already verified his information with his attending physician, and Xu Yao has been taking care of him over the past one and a half years."
Blood Robes thought that Dream Clouds was suspecting the fact that Happy was comatose, and he immediately answered her.
She sucked in a deep breath and stood up. "I'm not suspecting that. I'm just wondering whether he has gained consciousness over the past one year."
"Consciousness?"
Blood Robes' tone turned solemn.
"That's right."
Dream Clouds nodded.
"It's been one and a half years, but he immediately entered the game after he woke up, and he can even keep up with the current pace of the game. Isn't it a little too ridiculous to say that his personality has changed a lot? He doesn't look like a comatose person who was driven mad by you at all. It doesn't make sense."
Blood Robes sank into silence again.
He had actually thought about what Dream Clouds said before. It was indeed inconceivable, but based on his investigations and the information he had, he had never doubted it.
"Are you saying that he might have been conscious over the past one and a half years?"
"This is something I'm not certain about, but Happy is indeed giving me a very strange feeling right now."
Dream Clouds answered.
"I already have a basic understanding of the situation in Mount Song. The speed at which he cleared the exquisite Go game is very fast, and he's also incredibly decisive. Even if he faces a Moksha Realm martial artist with his Life and Death Realm skills …
"Also, over the next few days in the game, his qi has increased very quickly, and it's even faster than one and a half years ago.
"Third, he used the idiots in Blood Alliance to make himself famous and quickly gain attention. He made the players remember what happened in the past, and then, he naturally placed an order for items worth one hundred million taels of silver in the market.
"Fourth, he fought against Class One Hall. He knew that he would not end up well if he kept a low profile, that's why he decided to use Fu Tianqiong to push himself to the heart of the storm time and time again. He became the center of everyone's attention to ensure his reputation.
"Fifth, the speed at which he earned money is very astonishing. He spent one hundred and twenty million taels of silver on Recondite Steel Heavy Sword and a unique sword technique manual. Do you think that he would have such a nimble mind in the past? Would he have spent so much effort to accumulate wealth?
"Last, and this is also the most terrifying thing about him. He constantly pretends that he's injured." When she said this, Dream Clouds sucked in a deep breath and said, "The fight today is actually a gamble that Happy has been waiting for all this time."
"Oh?"
Blood Robes let out a surprised gasp.
"If he won the gamble, he will rise to fame just like he is now. We, Blood Alliance, and Class One Hall cannot deny Happy's strength. We cannot deny Happy's strength and status as a top-class elite in the Chinese server!"
"It doesn't matter even if he lost the gamble. He can also tell the world that he has been injured all this while, and even if he was killed by so many famous elites from Class One Hall, it will not affect his current reputation."
"Happy won! He has already proven his strength, and it's enough to pose a threat to us. At the same time, he also attracted many large sects to offer him an olive branch. I heard that Wind Assault Tower's Phantasmal Shadow has long since been prepared to draw him to her side. Even if we fight against him at full strength, there is a high possibility that we will end up forcing Happy into Wind Assault Tower, and under Wind Assault Tower's protection, he will fight against us. "
Dream Clouds' explanation caused Blood Robes to be unable to calm down.
"Could all of this be a coincidence? Happy isn't that smart, and he doesn't have such a good brain. If we really let him join Wind Assault Tower, he will grow even faster. At that time, we'll really be in trouble! "
"That's why I said that this man is very different now. The situation is completely under his control. He can attack when he wants to, and he can defend when he wants to. As for us, even if we lose face, it's impossible for us to publicly ban him and attack regardless of the cost."
"Why don't we have the people from Five Venoms attack him?"
"Now?" Dream Clouds smiled coldly. "Five Venoms was able to succeed in the past because we made thorough arrangements beforehand, and Happy was caught off guard. Even so, he still managed to kill more than one hundred people. Do you think that Five Venoms still has a chance now?"
She stopped talking for a moment before she continued.
"Besides, right now, Illusion Life and Death Pills are no longer as rare as they used to be. There are plenty of medical skills and medicine that can help people get rid of their injuries, and their prices have also dropped. If we kill Happy once, we'll just lose more than we gain."
"Are we supposed to do nothing and just let him grow stronger to fight against us?" Blood Robes was a little annoyed.
"I'm not prepared to do nothing."
Dream Clouds' tone suddenly changed. "In the past, didn't a lot of people fight against Class One Hall because of that matter? Did they only stop when you left Class One Hall? Since Happy placed himself in a safe shell, what we need to do is to force him to show himself. "
