"What are we going to do now?" Yutian Shenming asked after seeing that the Han Family Young Master had finished sending the letter.
"Watch the show." Han Family Young Master said.
As soon as he finished speaking, a player hurriedly walked out of a system shop and arrived next to the mailbox. After the six gave way to him, he opened the mailbox and took out a letter. He fumbled around inside the mailbox, but didn't find anything. He then tore open the letter and a gold coin immediately rolled out. The player was stunned for a moment before cursing, "F * ck!" He picked up the gold coin from the ground and took out the letter.
The five of them looked at each other and thought, "What a coincidence. I got to see a live broadcast of someone receiving this letter."
The player opened the letter and glanced at it. His expression immediately changed and he hurriedly ran back to the shop he just came out from. Not long after, he walked out with the other two. The letter was currently in the hands of the other two. The two of them stared at it intently with just a few sentences.
"Who sent it?" The two of them asked the person who had received the letter.
"I don't know. It was sent anonymously." Letters could be sent anonymously in the game. However, this also meant that they wouldn't be able to receive a reply from the other party. The reply would definitely need to be filled in with the player's ID before it would be delivered.
"Let's notify the guild leader!"
"Okay!" The recipient stood still and sent the message. Not long after, he said in surprise, "The guild leader said that he also received a letter with a gold coin. Could it be the same as mine?"
"Who could it be?"
"I don't know. Let's first find some people to pay attention to Green Narrow Guild's movements!" The three of them said as they left.
"How many people are in the city?" The last thing the five of them heard was this sentence. Han Family Young Master was startled after hearing this sentence. He then said, "I forgot something."
"What is it?" Everyone looked at him.
"Linshui City is a godforsaken place. It's not easy to gather people. Those who go out to train can only come back when there's a ship. Even if we spread the news to the other guilds, they won't be able to gather many people in a short period of time. "Han Family Young Master said.
"At least a little!" Yutian Shenming said.
"A lot less," said Brother You. A player's main lifestyle was to grind for levels and loot. The leveling areas were the main areas of activity. There weren't many players in the city.
"That brat Jian Nanyou, he didn't choose such a main city on purpose, did he?" Han Family Young Master said.
"No, he was born here," said Brother You. He and Jian Nan You were old acquaintances and had added each other as friends long ago.
"Oh … then he's lucky." Han Family Young Master said.
"What about us now?" Yutian Shenming asked the same question he had asked before.
"I'm just taking a stroll around the city. I'm here to check up on the guild's operations in Waterside City!" Han Family Young Master said.
Jiannan You and the others split up and went back and forth in the city. Their style of doing things was very similar. After changing into a new set of equipment, they would walk on the street with their heads down, not coming into contact with anyone.
Splitting up was indeed an effective plan. Finding a person in such a large main city was easier said than done. Thinking back to the time when Upstream and Unchung Mutsu were struggling to find Gu Fei, one could imagine how difficult this task was. The reason they had been discovered so quickly was because the seven of them were too big of a target. Youjian Nan regretted not splitting up immediately. Fortunately, they did not suffer too great of a loss. In the end, only Huo Renyi was sacrificed.
However … … he didn't know how the Video Mage was doing. Jian Nan You was still worried for Gu Fei! In that situation, a normal player would've thought that Gu Fei wouldn't have been able to escape. Jian Nan You was quite regretful that he didn't get to eat this fat sheep, but fell into someone else's pocket. I hope he doesn't drop anything when he dies. Jian Nan You prayed for Gu Fei like this. He didn't know how Gu Fei would feel if he found out.
Jian Nan You had a safe journey and arrived at the east gate of Waterside City. This wasn't the closest gate to their rendezvous point, but he didn't have the time to care about the distance. Naturally, he would take the safest route. Soon, he was close to the gate.
Jian Nan You was cautious and didn't move forward rashly. He glanced at the gate and couldn't help but complain in his heart. There were already people from Green Narrow Guild guarding the gate. They were carefully observing the players entering and exiting the city. If he wanted to sneak out … … Jian Nan You didn't know if they recognized him. It would be fine if they didn't, but if they recognized him, they definitely wouldn't let him pass so easily.
Jian Nan You, who was considered a resourceful person, couldn't think of a way. He contacted his other guild members and found out that they were all at the gate. However, apart from Blackwater, they were all stuck here. Blackwater was the only one who swaggered out of the city after entering Stealth.
"Which gate are you guys at?" Jian Nan You asked everyone.
"I'm at the south gate."
"I'm at the north gate."
"I'm at the west gate."
"I'm at the west gate too."
"Ah, you're at the west gate too? Where are you? Why don't I see you … … "
"I don't see you either … …"
From this, it could be seen that their disguise was very successful. They couldn't even find their own people, let alone other strangers.
"Let's find a gate to meet up with!" Jian Nan You said helplessly. "It's too risky to go out like this."
"Which gate?"
"Let's go to Dao Xiangmu's place!"
Dao Xiangmu was at the west gate. Thus, the few of them began to carefully move in that direction. From time to time, the people from Green Narrow Guild would run past them in groups of twos and threes. Every time they ran past them, they would break out in a cold sweat. However, they didn't expose themselves.
Jian Nan You and the others were still rejoicing in their hearts. However, they didn't know that their actions had given the Han Family Young Master time to execute his gold letter plan.
Out of the 20 guilds in Waterside City, a total of 17 responded immediately after receiving the gold letter. The ones who received the letter were either the guild leader or the core members of the guild. In short, the message had already been delivered.
Out of the 17 guilds, 6 of them were relatively casual guilds. They weren't greedy and didn't take the news seriously. The remaining 11 guilds began to pay close attention to the matter. Just like what Han Family Young Master and the others had seen at the mailbox, they immediately gathered people to investigate the situation.
Green Narrow Guild had hundreds of people. Some were running around the city, some were guarding the city gates, and some were guarding the various safe zones. The Priest Academy, in particular, was heavily guarded. It was easy for people to notice them. As such, they concluded that the news was not fake. Although they were still suspicious of the source, they immediately issued a summon to the players on the leveling island.
It took time to return by boat. Jian Nan You's group of seven wandered around the city, giving them some time. As the enemy's people hurried back, they began to collect information on Jian Nan You's group. The more people there were, the more power they could muster. Green Narrow Guild might not be able to recognize all seven of them, but now that they had spread the net so far, they only knew a little bit about the situation. Although they didn't exchange information with each other, the seven of them were basically transparent.
Each guild displayed their strengths. Those who recognized Flaming Cloak led their teams to search for this face, while those who recognized Dao Xiangmu searched for this face. Everyone split up, and the number of search parties in the city increased.
The seven of them vaguely sensed this situation. Jian Nan You immediately reminded everyone, "The news might have already spread. Everyone, be extra careful!"
"F * ck, how did it happen so quickly?"
"I don't know …" Jian Nan You couldn't figure it out. As a professional robber, Green Narrow Guild definitely wouldn't leak this kind of information. However, the players in the Beach Tavern shouldn't have let the news spread so quickly! Of course, Jian Nan You didn't expect Childe Elite Group to give such information after the fact.
Since the seven of them sensed it, Green Narrow Shadow, the guild leader of Green Narrow Shadow, naturally sensed it too.
How did the news spread so quickly? That was the first thought that flashed through his mind. From beginning to end, Painting Narrow Shadow saw the search teams from the three guilds, and he also saw the tacit expressions on the leaders' faces when they looked at him. He was certain that the other party's goal was the same as his.
"Hello, how are things on your side?" Narrow Shadow called the members of the Priest Academy. This was the main battlefield that he had predicted.
"A lot of people suddenly came. There are people from all the big guilds …" The players from the Priest Academy replied while wiping their sweat. In reality, the situation was getting tense. There were more and more guilds gathered here, and there wasn't enough space to stand. On the surface, no one said anything, but the obvious hostility between them scared the players who had just come online. They didn't know what to do and hurriedly went offline.
"F * ck, these guys are really cunning!" Of course, Narrow Shadow knew that it wasn't easy to gather people in Waterside City. These guilds were probably short on manpower at this time, so they all gathered at the Priest Academy. They were determined to take advantage of the situation there.
"What do we do?" The people from the Priest Academy were helpless.
"Wait, I'll be right there." Narrow Shadow sighed. Now that so many guilds had their eyes on this thing, it wasn't a good idea for everyone to just rush up and snatch it. It seemed like they needed to meet up and discuss this.
Meanwhile, on Gu Fei's side. The people from Eternal Life in Flowers and Wandering Sword's group of seven didn't recognize each other at all. Now that they had split up, they didn't know each other even if they stood in front of them. Naturally, they wouldn't be able to find anything. On the other hand, the movements in Waterside City had already fallen into their eyes.
Gu Fei, Hundred Eras Strategist, and a few other people from Eternal Life in Flowers just happened to meet up near the Priest Academy. When he saw the scene in the Priest Academy, Gu Fei's blood started to boil. "Aiya, it looks like they're going to kill someone, right?"
"Even Clerics can attract so much hate?" Hundred Eras Strategist was astonished. It was indeed difficult for Clerics to cause trouble.
"Hehe, of course they will." Gu Fei smiled thoughtfully.
"Hey, what are you laughing at?" Boundless Mang was extremely dissatisfied.
"Uh … I didn't mean to hint at you …" Gu Fei wiped his sweat. It turned out that the Cleric who could cause such a scene was standing next to him. However, the Cleric that Gu Fei arrived at was indeed not Boundless Mang.
"These people don't seem to be from the same guild! With so many guilds guarding here, it's like they're waiting for a BOSS! "Tsubasa Sakuratsuka said.
