"So, you guys accepted this mission too." Jupiter finally understood why the robots were so fragile. They had stolen the kill.
Jupiter gloated. Even when facing other guilds, the overbearing Guild of Gods would never apologize or back down. Not to mention, this was their old rival, Sky Territory.
"So what if we stole the kill? Hold it in if you don't like it."
The quarrel quickly turned into a brawl. After a round of brawling, all the members of Sky Territory died.
"Old Zhu, f * * * * * *&|% … Just you wait!" Yellow Skies Shall Fall immediately sent a private message to curse.
Jupiter closed the private message right away.
What a joke. Why play the game if you don't steal the kill?
With the mission target in hand, the members of Guild of Gods immediately went back to submit the mission. As long as the deed was done, Sky Territory could only accept it no matter how dissatisfied they were.
However, when Jupiter and the others arrived at the high-level area, they were stopped at the door.
"We completed His Excellency Han Xiao's request. Why can't we enter?"
"Orders from above. Outsiders are not allowed to enter."
No matter what, the guards did not budge. The members of Guild of Gods had no choice but to leave.
If they wanted to submit the mission, they could only wait for Han Xiao to appear again.
The group returned. After walking for a while, their vision suddenly turned dark. A group of burly men surrounded them. The leader was Jade Green Sky. He had brought the members of Sky Territory to denounce them.
"Old Zhu, you're not being nice. Our people took the mission first, and the target was also crippled by my people. You came out halfway and stole the kill. You have to give us an explanation." Jade Green Sky's face darkened.
"Don't make a fuss. Blame your bad luck." Jupiter was fearless. The sanctuary was a safe area. No one could attack. He was not afraid of being surrounded at all.
Sparks flew in their eyes as they looked at each other.
The guild leaders of the major clubs in China knew each other in private. Jade Green Sky and Jupiter had always been at odds with each other. There was a historical reason for this. The conflict started in the professional arena. Li Ge was the pillar of Temple of Gods, and Hao Tian was the star of Sky Territory. However, Hao Tian lost more than he won against Li Ge. In the finals, semifinals, or the quarterfinals of other competitions, he lost to Li Ge many times.
Therefore, the conflict between the two guilds was very deep, and they did not see eye to eye.
The theft of this mission was the fuse. Although it was only a small conflict, it could evolve into a conflict, not to mention that both sides were rivals.
The surrounding players looked over and carried on the fine tradition of the Chinese people. They all gathered around to watch. It was even more lively than a market. The middle of the road was so crowded that not even a drop of water could pass through.
After a round of insults, Jupiter said impatiently, "Azure Sky, what do you want?"
"Return the quest item to us."
"You must be dreaming!" Jupiter refused flatly.
Why should he return the monster that he had snatched with his own abilities? Furthermore, he represented the reputation of a guild. If he backed down, wouldn't others say that they were afraid of Sky Territory?
There was no way Jade Green Sky was going to swallow this loss. If the two sides could not back down, then there was no way to mediate. He could only use strength to do the talking. However, he was not willing to start a large-scale guild war. If both sides suffered losses, then they would be surpassed by other guilds.
A thought flashed through Jade Green Sky's mind, and he suddenly remembered the betting function of the arena. Wasn't that the most suitable way to resolve this kind of conflict?
"Alright, since you don't want to return it, then let's go to the arena and gamble!"
"Ridiculous, why do I have to fight with you? There's nothing to gain if I win, and I have to hand over my item if I lose."
"Humph, we'll bet too. Money, equipment, items, anything will do," Jade Green Sky provoked. "I'm officially issuing you a challenge. Accept the challenge if you have the guts."
He really wanted this chain mission. Firstly, Black Phantom's mission rewards were very generous, and secondly, it would increase Black Phantom's favorability. This was a deal that could be done.
However, Jupiter was not provoked at all. He pushed away the people from Sky Territory and left.
Anyway, the item was in his hands. As long as he turned in the mission, all the benefits would be his. There was no need to take the risk and gamble. He was too lazy to fulfill his enemy's wish.
The people from Sky Territory were furious. Yellow Skies Shall Stand said indignantly, "President, are we just going to let this go?"
Jade Green Sky's face was gloomy. He said angrily, "Hype! Forcing them to accept the challenge, I can't take this lying down. Get all the members to post on the forums and slander me! "
…
As Sky Territory started to attack the public opinion, posts slandering the Protoss flooded the forums. They portrayed the Protoss as unreasonable and immoral bullies, saying that they were cowards who did not accept the challenge and that they bullied the weak and feared the strong, etc. Because one needed to buy a gaming pod to post on the forums, the ghostwriters were not that active. However, this time, the Protoss had reason and evidence. They directly mobilized the peripheral members to post on the forums and started a frenzy.
The public opinion was rampant, but the Protoss were calm and did not panic at all.
In Jupiter's opinion, as long as he dragged on until Han Xiao appeared and turned in the mission, it would be too late for the Sky Territory to make a ruckus.
However, a few days passed, and Han Xiao still did not appear.
Jupiter started to get anxious. He asked the guards again and again, but he could not find out where Han Xiao was.
Han Xiao could also see the forums. He deliberately did not appear, which was tantamount to roasting the Protoss. As long as the Protoss did not turn in the mission to him, this mission item would only bring trouble to the Protoss.
From the moment he issued the mission, he had prepared this series of dirty tricks to force the two guilds to gamble in the arena to gain public attention and let more players know what the use of gambling in the arena was.
As long as there was someone who was the first to eat crabs and let the players see what the use of gambling in the arena was, it would awaken the people with latent needs.
The Protoss and Sky Territory only treated this incident as an accident or a coincidence. They did not guess that Han Xiao, the NPC who issued the mission, was behind this at all. It was a complete blind spot in their thinking.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more unfriendly toward the Protoss, Jupiter started to have a headache.
Finally, after Han Xiao 'disappeared' for another day, Jupiter could not take it anymore. In the name of the Protoss official, he accepted Sky Territory's gambling challenge on the forums.
"On behalf of the Protoss Guild, I accept the gambling challenge with Sky Territory. Our wager is the mission item [Uncontrollable Robot Chip]. We request that Sky Territory take out a chip of the same value. The location is the arena. One versus one. Best of five. The loser leaves the arena, and the winner can continue to fight. No matter who wins or loses, you have to admit that this is the final result.
Do not cause any trouble. "Jade Green Sky replied quickly.
"Okay!"
The two guilds' challenge made the players in the entire sanctuary excited.
…
The gambling service in the arena was handled by the sanctuary officials. They collected the bets before the battle and promised to hand them over to the winner. To enjoy the official gambling challenge, they had to book the arena first.
The fee for booking the arena would be included in the arena's turnover.
The two guilds were very rich. Because they wanted to be fair to the other players, they booked the largest arena in the center. The other areas were for the players' spectator seats. It was very high-profile.
On the day of the challenge, all the players in the sanctuary gathered in the arena. It was bustling with activity.
"Who do you think will win?"
"Definitely the Protoss. Sky Territory is far from it."
"Actually, the Protoss is in the wrong this time. It's very immoral."
"You must be joking. What's wrong with stealing kills in a game? Don't make it so obvious."
"There's a dealer over there. I'm going to bet on the Protoss."
"There's a place to bet? Let's go together! "
The venue was extremely noisy. It was almost like a concert of a superstar. The audience waited for a long time before the two parties finally arrived. After seeing the IDs of the two teams, the audience was stunned.
The players were not from the guilds at all. They were all professional players from the two club teams!
After being stunned for a while, many of the audience cheered in surprise. If the arena was not open-air, their enthusiasm would have been enough to flip the roof!
Originally, most of the audience had come to watch the show. However, when the professional players appeared, all the audience's interest was piqued.
The Galaxy Pro League had not been formed yet. The normal players had not seen the strength of the professional players, so their enthusiasm was high.
"Temple of God is indeed strong. All the players here are first-tier and quasi-first-tier players. Unfortunately, Li Ge is not here. I heard that he went to participate in the expedition."
"That's right. Long Sky's foundation is a bit weaker. They are basically second-tier players. The first-tier players, Sleepy Winter and Twinkle Fried Rice, are also in the war … Wait, is that … Great God Hao Tian?"
Hao Tian was expressionless as he mixed in with Long Sky's team. The audience all looked at him with disbelief and respect.
Wherever he passed, the audience subconsciously slowed down their discussions. It was as if there was a steady aura around him.
As the pillar of Long Sky, Hao Tian was naturally pulled over by Jade Green Sky. His fame and strength were far beyond the first-tier players. He was the most eye-catching professional player in the arena. Facing such a god, the players of Temple of God immediately felt pressured.
The two guilds belonged to the clubs, so they invited their players over to help without any prior communication.
Seeing the members of the other side, Jade Green Sky and Jupiter broke out in cold sweat. At the same time, they thought, Luckily, I also pulled in a professional player. Damn it, I almost got tricked by that old sly bastard.
The central ring was very wide and hexagonal. The square in the middle was the battlefield, and the triangles on both sides were the waiting area. The people of Sky Territory and Guild of Gods were waiting in the waiting area.
The audience below the ring whispered and waited excitedly.
Some of the players had different thoughts.
"It seems that gambling in the ring can increase the exposure …" some of the spectating guilds thought to themselves.
"If we guard the ring, we can spar with players of various factions and even earn bets," some of the players who liked PK said to themselves.
The spectating professional players nodded. "Not only does guarding the ring increase the exposure, but it can also train our skills. This function is not bad."
Seeing the grandeur and effect of the gambling in the arena with their own eyes, many of the players saw the benefits and entertainment in it. Han Xiao invited the two guilds to fight because he wanted the other players to experience the function of this function so that the players could use their creativity and expand the functions of this function to satisfy different needs.
