Everyone started to get busy. They went to collect their missions according to the targets they killed. Those who had already collected missions went around to find out where the four guilds were. Xi Xiaotian, Liu Xia, and Yun Xiang formed a team and assigned their roles. The initial decision was that Xi Xiaotian and Yun Xiang would each go to the two guilds, and Liu Xia would pretend to be the guild leader. The three of them rehearsed and thought about possible situations and events, trying their best to fool the other party. Xi Xiaotian was confident in himself. He was just worried that Yun Xiang wouldn't act naturally during the process. Therefore, Yun Xiang tried to be concise. As the saying goes, the more you talk, the more likely you are to make mistakes. The less you talk, the safer it would be.
The scouts who had gone out to scout also reported back one after another. After all, the four major guilds were a very conspicuous group. It was a piece of cake for them to find out where the four major guilds were. Out of these four guilds, three of them were stationed in the revival camp. The person in charge had to leave the guild. Xi Xiaotian and the other two were prepared and were kicked out one by one. Xi Xiaotian was in charge of Against the Current and Unchung Mutsu. Yun Xiang was in charge of the Sword of No Oath and Black Index Finger.
Xi Xiaotian rummaged through his pockets and grabbed a bunch of guild badges. He randomly picked two that were the same and passed one to Yun Xiang. He wore one too. He asked Yun Xiang for the last time, "What's the name of the guild, how many people are there, who are the members. Do you remember all of these?"
"Yes." Yun Xiang nodded.
"Okay, two for each person. Let's go far away first." Xi Xiaotian said and went their separate ways with Yun Xiang. The others also knew that the operation had begun. Those who accepted missions and those who went to scout for information returned to their original positions. They seized the time to discuss tactics and get used to each other.
At the revival camp in the northwest of the city, a large number of players gathered, including the Yunmu Guild led by Unchung Mutsu. The city war remained in a stalemate. After learning that there was a limit to the number of deaths, many Guilds no longer dared to act rashly. This was especially true for the large Guilds that held high hopes for the city war. None of them dared to casually engage in a battle of attrition with the system. Currently, the various large Guilds were showing signs of shifting their focus to quests. These special quests were not easy to accept. However, the fixed NPCs in the various Resurrection Camps had many timed quests. Players were currently swarming there, trying to complete these boring quests in order to earn some points.
Although the Unchung Mutsu himself was here, his subordinates were cleverly dispersed to the six resurrection camps. Before there was a clear chance of victory, he didn't plan on wasting a single soldier on the siege battle. Although he was criticized and looked down upon by many players, the Unchung Mutsu wasn't moved at all. While he sent people to complete these small quests, he also sent people to search for big quests. At the same time, he sent people to investigate the latest movements of the various Guilds.
Everything was carried out in an orderly manner. The Unchung Mutsu didn't need to be nervous or anxious. All he had was anticipation, and the anticipation came knocking on his door. Xi Xiaotian passed through the various Guilds and arrived in front of the Shepherd Clouds Guild.
"Is your Guild Master here?" Xi Xiaotian asked with a smile.
"There's a beauty looking for the Guild Master …" The people from the Shepherd Clouds Guild winked and smiled ambiguously. While replying, they immediately sent a message to Unchung Mutsu, "There's a beauty looking for him."
Very few people would dislike beautiful women, and the Unchung Mutsu was no exception. However, very few people would be shameless in front of beautiful women like the playboys. The Unchung Mutsu was no exception. When he heard that there was a beauty looking for him, he didn't foolishly let his imagination run wild. After asking where she was, he hurried over.
"Great Guild Master Yun, it's been a while!" Xi Xiaotian said.
"You …" The Unchung Mutsu felt that this woman was very familiar. He quickly remembered who she was. He thought that she was the person who had extorted him of 400 gold coins. However, when he chased after Qianli and got drunk, he realized that it was all a misunderstanding. However, he couldn't take it lying down, so he got drunk with Qianli at the entrance of the revival point. In the end, he was beaten to a pulp. After that, Tsubasa Sakuratsuka suddenly appeared and acted as a mediator since they weren't familiar with each other. At that time, Unchung Mutsu wanted to get Qianli drunk and join the guild. However, Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's sudden appearance made him think that Qianli was a perverted guy like the playboys. He immediately thought that Qianli wouldn't give up on the Rebirth Amethyst, so he gave up.
He was quite angry about the matter with Xi Xiaotian, but it was later proven to be a misunderstanding, so his anger naturally dissipated. However, he wasn't able to get Qianli drunk to join the guild, so he felt a bit regretful. However, that was a consensual thing. Although it could be said that he was extorted, it had been a long time. The Unchung Mutsu wasn't petty to the point of holding a grudge.
"So it's you. What's the matter?" Unchung Mutsu said.
"Hehe, just like last time, I have some information to sell to Great Guild Master Yun." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Oh? What kind of information? " The Unchung Mutsu was already on guard, but he wasn't a lawyer who charged by the hour. It wouldn't cost him anything to listen, so he casually asked.
"Mission." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Mission?" The Unchung Mutsu was startled. "What's the matter?"
"There's a mission that I want to sell to Great Guild Master Yun." Xi Xiaotian said.
"I don't understand what you mean."
"The reason is very simple. Our guild received a mission, but we don't have the ability to complete it. However, we know that a big guild like Muyun would definitely want to try such a large-scale mission. So, we want to exchange this mission for some gold coins." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Oh? What guild are you? "The Unchung Mutsu asked.
"Ling Yue Heaven Realm." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Never heard of it."
Xi Xiaotian smiled. "So it's a small guild. It's made up of 20 friends and relatives."
The Unchung Mutsu's expression didn't change. He immediately asked around in the guild to see if anyone knew about this guild. In the end, someone really said that it sounded a bit familiar.
"What's the situation with the guild?" The Unchung Mutsu asked.
"I don't know. I don't know when I heard or saw it …" The person who knew answered.
"Go and investigate!" The Unchung Mutsu said.
"We can't enter the main city, and we can't reach the guild building. How do we investigate?"
The Unchung Mutsu thought about it and agreed. Although the offline official website also had some guild rankings for each region, those were all the top guilds. If this was a guild with only 20 people, it definitely wouldn't be on the rankings.
"Are you the guild master?" The Unchung Mutsu asked Xi Xiaotian.
"No, it's not convenient for our guild master to show himself right now." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Why?"
"Hehe, because the mission is with our guild master. If he shows himself and accidentally dies, the mission will fail due to his death. How will we earn the money then?" Xi Xiaotian said.
"What exactly is the mission?" The Unchung Mutsu asked.
"Of course we don't know what happens after the mission. It's just that we can't go through the current plot. If we had the ability to complete it, we wouldn't have sold the mission. "Xi Xiaotian said.
"Then why are you selling it to me?" The Unchung Mutsu said.
Xi Xiaotian laughed: "You misunderstood. Although I'm selling the mission right now, it's not certain that you're the one who bought the mission."
"What do you mean? You're thinking … "The Unchung Mutsu immediately remembered that Xi Xiaotian had found him and Against the Current last time. This time, this woman wanted to do the same thing again. However, last time it was information that could be shared. This time, it was a mission. The mission couldn't be shared between two guilds. Without a doubt, this woman wanted to find more guilds and then go to the highest bidder.
"Guild Master Yun, do you understand what I mean?" Xi Xiaotian said.
"I understand …" The Unchung Mutsu felt a bit of hatred. It was another scam. However, just like the last time, even though he knew, he had no choice but to bite the bullet. The only ones who could compete with them were the other four sixth rank guilds. However, this time, it wasn't a competition of strength. It was a competition of financial resources and how much courage they were willing to put in for the mission. No matter what, the Unchung Mutsu felt that it was necessary for him to participate. If he bought it, he'd make a profit. If he didn't, it wouldn't be considered a loss. Thinking of this, the Unchung Mutsu nodded and said calmly: "Okay, I'll participate. Send me the price when the time comes."
After hearing this, Xi Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat. This guy was actually going to use information to conduct a remote auction? This wasn't the result they wanted. Thinking of this, his face was slightly surprised and then a bit happy. Then, he said: "Oh? Then, can I trouble Guild Master Yun to add me as a friend? I'll make a price when the time comes. "
The Unchung Mutsu had been observing carefully. He saw the strange expression on Xi Xiaotian's face. When he heard that he wanted to add Xi Xiaotian as a friend, someone in the guild reminded him: "Guild master, this is equivalent to an auction. If we don't participate in the auction, won't they be able to play tricks behind the scenes?"
The Unchung Mutsu thought about it. That's right! If I don't listen to the price, for example, Go Against the Current reported a thousand, but this woman told me two thousand, wouldn't I be an idiot? Even if she contacted Go Against the Current, it wouldn't work. If Go Against the Current reported a thousand and told him in private that he would bid five hundred, then Unchung Mutsu would be happy to bid eight hundred. In fact, it wasn't even higher than that. Anyway, this event had to be carried out in front of everyone. If you want to act mysterious and play tricks behind the scenes, then you have to be absolutely trustworthy.
Of course, the Unchung Mutsu couldn't trust this woman, nor could he trust the bosses of other guilds. He sighed inwardly at how muddle-headed he was. He quickly changed his words: "Adding as a friend is a must, but there's no need to bid. I think it's better to send someone to participate in the auction! How do you plan to proceed? "
"It's like this. This mission seems to only be accepted by the guild master because the NPC is actually quite conspicuous. However, our people didn't trigger the plot of the mission before. In the end, our guild master only received the mission after contacting him. So, our guild master won't appear in public. He's currently in a relatively safe place. I'll be the host of the auction. After any guild wins the bid, our guild master will follow his request and die, causing the mission to fail. Then, naturally, the guild master who won the auction can take over the mission. Does Guild Master Yun think that there's any problem with this operation? "Xi Xiaotian said.
"It seems alright." The Unchung Mutsu nodded. "Then, where is this mission NPC?"
"Yunjiao Lumberyard. If Guild Master Yun thinks that there's no problem, you can send someone you trust over to participate in the auction. After the auction is successful, we can complete the mission first before getting the money. Hehe, we can still trust the reputation of a big guild. "Xi Xiaotian said.
Of course, being a big guild didn't mean that they had quality. However, the few big guilds in Cloud City all had a good reputation in this area. There wouldn't be anyone who didn't trust them. So, Xi Xiaotian didn't argue on whether to get the mission or money first.
After listening, the Unchung Mutsu felt that there was nothing wrong with it. He immediately nodded: "Then I'll send someone over immediately. How do we contact each other then?"
"Oh, if it's possible, can we wait for a moment? I still need to go drink and sing. When the time comes, we can go together. "Xi Xiaotian said.
The Unchung Mutsu heard this and secretly hated it. However, he suddenly had an idea and suddenly said: "How much money? How much are you willing to sell the mission for? "
Xi Xiaotian smiled slightly: "This is something that doesn't have a price tag. The value needs to be reflected."
How cunning … The Unchung Mutsu gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, what's your name? I'll add you as a friend and we'll contact each other later."
"Xi Xiaotian." Xi Xiaotian left his name and added Unchung Mutsu as a friend before leaving.
On the other side, Yun Xiang had already finished visiting the Black Index Finger. The Black Index Finger came from a mercenary group. His trading experience was far richer than the average guild master. Therefore, everything was very simple. Once Yun Xiang stated the purpose of her visit, the Black Index Finger quickly sorted out the details. For example, the remote control to participate in the auction. The Black Index Finger didn't make a joke out of it. He just asked about the mission out of concern. Of course, these were already rehearsed lines. Yun Xiang wasn't nervous. She performed perfectly and answered all of them. In the end, the Black Index Finger gladly said that he would participate in the auction.
The two of them visited their respective guilds. At this time, the specially arranged guild master Liu Xia didn't have any use at all. The players from both guilds didn't ask about the guild master at all. To them, it was fine as long as there was a mission. It didn't seem necessary to talk to the guild master.
Xi Xiaotian left Mu Yun and went to Drinking and Singing. Drinking and Singing had killed Qianli in the morning, so their morale was greatly boosted. However, their mission didn't improve after killing Bai Sha, so they were quite depressed. At this time, other than searching for missions like Mu Yun, Drinking and Singing was also paying attention to Sword Demon's whereabouts. They already saw Sword Demon as their mission target.
It was the same method of meeting up. Countercurrent was clearly smarter than Muddy Cloud, and he didn't make a fool out of himself by asking for a remote auction. He asked the same questions and tried to understand the situation. The only difference was that Countercurrent asked which Guilds would be participating in the bidding for this quest.
"Drinking and Singing, Unhindered, Mu Yun's guild."
"Oh? Not Rosy Clouds? "Going Upstream asked.
"Guild Master Gu of Rosy Clouds. We don't think she will participate in this kind of event," Xi Xiaotian said.
"Hehe, it's a fair trade. I think it's fifty-fifty whether she will participate or not. However, even if you don't call her, her guild will still come. Moreover, she will be the winner of this auction. We won't participate in Drinking and Singing, "Going Upstream said.
"Oh? Why? I don't quite understand, "Xi Xiaotian said curiously.
"Haha, because you invited Sword Without Oath, he will definitely give Gu Xiaoshang a heads up. Although Gu Xiaoshang did not receive an invitation, after hearing such news, and with Sword Without Oath's persuasion, his chances of coming will increase greatly. And if she were to participate in the auction, the Sword of No Oath would probably only fight for it symbolically, and it was more likely to lend her a hand at the last moment. If Gu Xiaoshang doesn't want to compete, then Sword Without Oath will ask her for help instead. This guy, no matter if he wants to give Gu Xiaoshang a favor or owe her a favor, he will spare no effort. So, there's no way we can compete with these two guilds. "Going Upstream shrugged.
"Oh, so you're saying that Gu Xiaoshang might not come. Guild Master Upstream, are you sure you don't want to go take a look? "Xi Xiaotian said.
"Hehe, I don't think I'm wrong." Going Upstream laughed and didn't say anything else.
Xi Xiaotian was a bit panicked. She had calculated everything in her mind, but she had neglected the melodramatic power of love. The legendary power of love that could conquer everything … In front of this thing, would Sword Without Oath abandon his greed for the quest?
At this moment, Xi Xiaotian also received a message from Yun Xiang. "That Sword of No Oath actually asked us if we called Caiyun. I said no, and then he asked why we didn't call it. Then, he called it for us. What if the people from Rosy Clouds come? "
Xi Xiaotian didn't include Gu Xiaoshang in the beginning because Rosy Clouds wasn't interested in these things. But for Sword Demon and the others, there was another reason why they didn't want Rosy Clouds to participate. Han Family Young Master! The young master of the Han Clan was currently mingling with Cai Yunjian. Putting aside the fact that he might not be able to see through the plan, if he were to come with Gu Xiaoshang, Gu Feijian and Gui Gui might be able to fool most people with their faces covered, but how could they possibly fool this fellow? When the time came, their tracks would definitely be exposed. If the five guilds joined forces, even eight Gu Fei wouldn't be able to survive.
"Don't panic, play your role well." After reminding Yun Xiang, Xi Xiaotian turned to Going Upstream. "If that's the case, then I'll take my leave."
"I won't see you out." Going Upstream didn't bat an eyelid and let Xi Xiaotian leave.
"The situation has changed!!" At this time, the people at the sawmill in the suburbs had already received the situation: Going Upstream didn't participate in the auction, but the people from Rosy Clouds might participate.
"What do we do?" A bunch of people panicked.
"What do you mean what do we do? It's still four targets. Once we kill them, it's over. "Gu Fei said.
"This, if Young Master is with us, I'm afraid we won't be able to hide." Brother You said.
"Brother You, are you talking to me?" Gu Fei said.
"Yeah!"
"Then where are you looking at?" Gu Fei asked.
Brother You turned his head with difficulty and saw Gu Fei's teapot lid hairstyle!
"Don't laugh, laughing is the same as dying!!!" Brother You sternly warned himself and then said, "Young Master and Rosy Clouds have been together recently."
"Brother You, why do you sound so weird?" Gu Fei asked.
"Do I?"
"I do!" A lot of people said.
Nonsense, how can I not blame him? I'm talking while biting my tongue! If I don't make it hurt, how can I hold back my laughter! Brother You was in pain.
