The news of the two guild leaders being assassinated spread quickly. The eight hundred or so guilds in Cloud City all felt insecure, as if a knife was hanging over their heads. Previously, when they had watched Thousand Miles Drunk wreak havoc on several large Guilds, they had been secretly delighted. Now that they thought back to the situation, they felt as if they were in the same situation as Thousand Miles Drunk. They felt as if it would happen to them very soon.
What was even more frightening was that the bad news kept coming. After the two guild leaders, Cloud Sky and Dark Night were killed, while everyone was talking about it, another three guild leaders of Level 5 guilds were killed. Just like before, the assassins left quickly after succeeding. No one had the chance to catch them. The only good news from these three assassinations was that the three guild leaders weren't declared dead like Dark Night.
The city battle quickly came to an end. The guilds that had been slaughtering each other on the battlefield all withdrew from the frontlines. No one wanted to be assassinated in such a chaotic situation for no reason. In reality, everyone could see that the other party's target was only the guild leaders, so some guild leaders retreated from the frontlines while their members continued to fight. Some guild leaders felt that it was embarrassing to hide alone, so they retreated with all of their members. The player army did not have much of an advantage in the first place, and now that their investment had been reduced, they were completely routed by the system guards. The battlefield quickly became desolate, and the system guards showed off their might. The players rushed out of the revival camp, but when they saw the pitiful number of people around them, they all hesitated.
"There's no way to fight!!" Many players found worthless things and threw them to express their anger.
"Qianli must be eliminated once he's drunk!" Someone said.
"If Qianli is not eliminated once he's drunk, there will never be peace in the city war." As they spoke, another news came. The fifth guild leader had died, but this one was as lucky as Black Index Finger. He actually didn't get an Honor Kill, but a single death, so he didn't get the sharp penalty of dying 15 times. At this moment, he was at the resurrection camp, thanking the heavens for his blessings.
Gu Fei was also human. He would make mistakes, especially when his opponent was in the middle of a battle. He didn't know how much health he had. This time, he didn't control his damage very well. His hand was too heavy, and he killed his opponent. Now, his and Fireball's two-man party had come to a standstill. Fireball still had this person's quest on him, and if he wanted to complete it, he still had to rush to the resurrection camp. However, at this time, the city war had once again come to a standstill. A large number of players had retreated from the battlefield and gathered outside the battlefield. Gu Fei and Fireball had found an opportunity during this time. At this time, the two of them were especially eye-catching on the plains of the battlefield because there were almost no players around.
"I didn't expect it to affect me so quickly." Brother You and the others looked at the empty battlefield and were dumbfounded. Everyone had completed a round of missions and were now searching for a new target. They were the only ones left in the world.
"I thought we could play like this for a while!" Yutian Shenming felt regretful. It wasn't easy for him to team up with a few girls for a mission. He had just finished one, and before he could find the next one, the enemies had all retreated.
"So far, each group has killed one. Not bad." Sword Demon gave a positive review.
"Where is this b * stard that's out of his mind!!!" In the OP channel, Slender Waist Dance's howls were still echoing. She still hadn't found the target.
"Let's go back to the city first? Right now, we seem to be a bit eye-catching … "Brother You suggested. As there was no chaotic battle on the battlefield, the few players were still very eye-catching.
"Okay, everyone, let's go back to the city first." Under Sword Demon's command, everyone returned to the city. Only Slender Waist Dance and Under Willow were still wandering outside.
At the east gate, everyone gathered and discussed what to do next.
At the resurrection camp outside the east gate, a large number of guild leaders had also gathered here to discuss how to deal with Qianli and the others. Previously, when Qianli was only messing around everywhere when he was drunk, no one wanted to cause trouble. But now, they realized that even if they didn't cause trouble, Qianli would come looking for them when he was drunk. No one wanted to sit around and wait for death.
"Honor Kills are actually like this …" The four major guilds seized this opportunity and immediately publicized it. Immediately, a long line formed in front of the garrison captains of the various camps. All the players came to receive the mission to kill Qianli's Drunk and Sword Demon.
But after receiving the mission, everyone didn't know what to do. The mission didn't give any coordinates, and many people didn't even know who Qianli's Drunk and Sword Demon were. The enemy was in the dark, and they were out in the open. This feeling was really annoying. Everyone could only stare at the city gates with their eyes wide open. When someone came out, they would be nervous and on guard. After a long time, everyone was very dissatisfied.
"Who is this guy? He's always carrying a basket to pick up stones. He's pretending to be relaxed as if he's mocking us! "
"Who knows? Maybe he's Qianli's Drunk in disguise!"
"How annoying. Have you seen Qianli's Drunk before?"
"No, you?"
"Nope, I heard he's Black Cloak and Purple Sword."
"Then what if he changes his equipment?"
"That I don't know. When the time comes, he'll attack wherever he points!"
Discussions were everywhere, but there was no concrete plan. The leaders of the four major guilds saw that this couldn't go on. Everyone stopped attacking the city, but Qianli's Drunk and the others didn't show up either. Were they just going to stay outside the city and do these disgusting missions? More than 800 guilds, hundreds of thousands of players, were scared off by a few dozen people and didn't dare to attack the city? If this got out, wouldn't Cloud City be seen as the most useless and trashiest main city?
Players had a strong sense of honor for the main city, and no one could tolerate this kind of ending. The leader of the four major guilds, Against the Current, made a final speech to Wine and Singing. He hoped that all the guilds would unite and continue to attack the city. The task of protecting the guild leaders could be handed over to the four major guilds' army of 400. Against the Current promised the guild leaders that this army of 400 was definitely the most elite team in Cloud City at the moment. It was made up of the elites of the four major guilds.
Some of the guild leaders of smaller guilds thought that even thousands of people in the big guilds couldn't do anything to Qianli's Drunk. If they were really unlucky and met him, they wouldn't be his opponent. They could only try their luck and play hide and seek. At this time, after Against the Current released this news, many guild leaders were very supportive and came to report and accept protection.
Against the Current further expanded the publicity, emphasizing that accepting protection as a group could save a lot of manpower. This naturally made a lot of sense. In the end, of the more than 800 guilds participating in the city war in Cloud City, about 95% of the guilds decided to accept Against the Current's proposal. More than 700 guild leaders all rushed to the place where Against the Current and the others were stationed. In the end, there were a total of 764 guild leaders, but they were only responsible for protecting 400 people.
Of course, these 400 people were absolute elites. Among the 764 guild leaders, there were quite a few experts, but there were also a lot of noobs. A few trash guild leaders around Level 30 were also mixed in. Against the Current treated all of them equally, but in their hearts, everyone felt that these guild leaders were taking refuge. They thought too highly of themselves. When Qianli made his move, he never looked for weak opponents.
This wasn't the first guild leader gathering, but this time it was much more complete than the first. At this time, the Cloud Suburb Farm was filled with guild leaders. It was a spectacular sight.
"Cough, we already have so many guild leaders. If we gather them together, they'll be a force to be reckoned with. Do you think there's a need to leave 400 people to protect us?" Unsworn Sword said.
"Of course there's a need." Against the Current said, "These are all masters who command others. Now that they're all gathered together and listening to someone else's command, I doubt they'll be able to coordinate well. Moreover, they're all chosen according to the guild leader, not according to their class. There doesn't seem to be any balance. I looked around just now. There are very few Clerics among the guild leaders. There are a lot of Warriors … "
"Oh …" Veterans of the game understood this phenomenon very well. There was a very classic iron triangle combination that had been used in the online gaming world for many years. Even in today's parallel world, players would sometimes use this combination to fight against the system. In this kind of combination where Warrior, Mage, and Cleric was the foundation of the team's survival, the Warrior as the main tank was the foundation of the team's survival. This kind of core character could easily become the leader of a team. Once the guild was established, they would naturally become the guild leader.
"But with 400 people taking care of 700 people, I don't think we'll be able to handle it. The guild leaders should organize themselves so that if anything happens, they can become a fighting force." Against the Current continued.
Everyone nodded and immediately made this suggestion to the guild leaders democratically. When the guild leaders gathered together, they realized that there were so many guild leaders. They were already very bold. At this time, there were quite a few people who suggested that the four major guilds withdraw the 400 people and let them protect themselves. In the end, Against the Current spent a lot of time explaining that the guild leaders didn't have class balance. As for everyone being bosses, it would be difficult for them to cooperate with each other. Against the Current naturally couldn't say such unpleasant words to the public.
Thus, the guild leaders started to discuss Fiercely's team again. At the same time, the guild members under the guild leaders started to move again and continued to attack the city. After fighting for so long, the players also realized that the guards of the system could be replenished after they died. So as long as they continued to wear down the guards, they could still forcefully win the city war. However, the troublemakers like Qianli's Drunk had to be eradicated. At this time, the disadvantage of the guilds with the "Dragon without a Leader" attribute was revealed. After entering this state, their guild channel was actually blocked. Without the guild channel, they could only form their own teams to fight. Communication was inconvenient, causing the cooperation and assistance between each other to become very low.
During this period of time, Gu Fei and the others didn't move out of the city, but they clearly knew what was happening outside the city. With more than seven hundred guild leaders gathered together, it was easy to gather information about such a big event. Slender Waist Dance and Lower Willow were there to observe. Faced with such a situation, Slender Waist Dance didn't say anything, but in her heart, she gave up on the idea of "taking advantage of the chaos to find the sane person and kill him". At this time, Cloud Suburb Farm was under strict protection. Four hundred players had completely sealed off the area, and the guild leaders were all gathered in the circle. No one went out. Those who wanted to enter the circle had to go through an extremely strict inspection. Slender Waist Dance and Lower Willow didn't know what the inspection was about, but they were stopped and questioned. It was obvious that they couldn't sneak in. The person asked for their name and guild, and then they checked with the guild leader.
"It's very convenient to do quests now because all the guild leaders are in this position." Slender Waist Dance and Lower Willow turned into two scouts and reported the situation to the organization.
"But it's very difficult to complete the quest because all the guild leaders are in captivity. They even have to be inspected when they go in and out. Right now, even the Moon Ball isn't as troublesome as them." Slender Waist Dance said.
"You've been to the Moon before?" Brother You asked.
"I went once when I was young. It was very boring. I don't recommend it. "Slender Waist Dance said.
Everyone was silent. Slender Waist Dance really was a super rich person. She had even experienced such an extravagant trip to the Moon.
"This is a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop!" Gu Fei said.
No one paid attention to him. A normal player's brain wouldn't call this a 'chance'.
"Everyone, let's think together. What can we use in this situation?" Sword Demon called on everyone to work together.
"I don't think we can continue with the quest to assassinate the guild leader for now." Brother You said.
"Of course."
"Why don't we see if there are any big quests in the city?" Brother You suggested.
"Okay, okay!!" June Rain strongly supported.
"Yeah, that's the only way. Qianli, what do you think? "Sword Demon said.
"Catch them all in one fell swoop …"
"Meeting dismissed." Sword Demon announced.
"F * ck!" Gu Fei was depressed.
"You can go and research your quest too." Sword Demon said.
"Yunjiao Lakeside huh …" Gu Fei muttered to himself. Strange Pupil left very quickly.
"This quest has been going on for a long time. It's a two-way quest. I think it'll be a huge breakthrough in the city war." Sword Demon said.
"Okay, I'll go take a look. Does anyone want to go with me? "Gu Fei called.
Because everyone seriously suspected that Gu Fei was kidnapping people to kill people, no one responded. In the end, only Fireball was left. Determined, she said, "Brother Zui, I'll go with you."
"Okay!" Gu Fei had no choice but to accept this choice.
"Should we meet up with Slender Waist Dance and the others when we leave the city?" Fireball asked.
"Why?"
"Yunjiao Lakeside, Brother Zui. If we don't bring the girls, we'll cause a misunderstanding. It's disgusting!" Fireball said.
"Don't worry. If there's a misunderstanding, I'll kill you. That way, there won't be any misunderstanding." Gu Fei said.
"Brother Zui, I was wrong." Tears streamed down Fireball's face.
The battle outside the city started again. The two changed their clothes and sneaked out of the city. The others had already scattered to look for quests. Sword Demon was about to do the same when he saw Little Ray walking back from outside the city with a big basket on his back.
"Little Ray!" Sword Demon called out.
"They're fighting again." Xiaolei was quite helpless. His mission to clean up the battlefield was naturally not to be carried out once the battle broke out. However, as soon as it stopped, he would immediately be assigned to it. Xiaolei felt that he was not from the Trade Association, but from the Sanitation Department.
"You should look for other quests too!" Sword Demon said.
"Okay, I'll look for them. I'll take a break first. You're busy." Little Ray said goodbye to Sword Demon.
After handing in the quest, he crawled back to his tavern. Little Ray poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. After smacking his lips twice, he felt that it was a bit lacking. So he went back to the wine cabinet to prepare his own concoction. Suddenly, he heard the door next to him open with a creak.
"Who is it?" Little Ray didn't turn around. At this time, the customers who could come to his tavern were the ones from before. He roughly introduced them by name.
"It's me. Tonic wine." The newcomer said.
Little Ray was shocked. What a familiar voice and words. He quickly turned around and saw a person walk in from outside the door. The person randomly found a table and sat down. He took out a bunch of empty bottles and threw them on the table. He knocked on the table and said, "Hurry up, I'm in a hurry."
"You … why are you here?" Little Ray was surprised.
"Why can't I come?" Han Family Young Master asked.
"City war!" Little Ray's eyes widened.
"Hmph, neutral players can enter and leave the main city at will. I should have noticed this a long time ago." Han Family Young Master said.
"You're a neutral player?" Little Ray asked.
"Otherwise, why would I be sitting here." Han Family Young Master said, "Hurry up and bring the wine!!!"
"Coming, coming. I have a new concoction of wine!" Little Ray was excited. He finally had a soulmate. As he said this, he quickly carried out a large bucket and poured a large glass for Han Family Young Master. "Try it first."
Han Family Young Master's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a new wine. He quickly came over. Little Ray picked up the glass as soon as he finished pouring it. He sniffed and found that it was very different from the wine in the game. He then took a deep sip.
"How is it?" Little Ray was a bit nervous.
"It's so strong …" Han Family Young Master frowned. "There's actually such strong wine in the game. If that idiot Deep Water came, he would be drunk for a day just by smelling it. "
"Haha, isn't it exciting?" Little Ray said.
"Exciting. But let's do it the same way for now! I need to keep a clear head right now. "Han Family Young Master said.
"Clear head?" Little Ray didn't understand.
"City war, brother." Han Family Young Master said.
"Aren't you a neutral player?" Little Ray said.
"That's just the identity given by the system." Han Family Young Master said.
"Then … which side are you on?" Little Ray said.
"My side." Han Family Young Master said.
Little Ray became more and more confused as he listened. He still carried a pile of wine for Han Family Young Master and asked, "Then do you need to keep it a secret from Qianli and Sword Demon that you're entering the city?"
"Whatever." Han Family Young Master threw down the wine money and left.
"How was it? What did you find out?" As soon as Han Family Young Master left the tavern, someone immediately came up to him and asked.
"Find out? Find out what? "Han Family Young Master didn't understand.
"Aren't you here to find out information?"
"Who said so? I'm here to buy wine."
"F * ck, then you said you had to go to a very important place to do something very important after entering the main city." The other person was angry.
"Yeah, to buy wine!"
"To buy wine … Isn't there a tavern just after entering the city?"
"I'm used to it." Han Family Young Master didn't care.
"You …" The other person obviously wanted to strangle Han Family Young Master to death.
"Relax, brother Moonless. Didn't we successfully enter the city?" Han Family Young Master said.
"Then what do we do next? Find Qianli and get drunk and get rid of them? " Moonless asked. His full ID was Moonless Aqua. He was one of the core members of Rosy Clouds. This time, he was ordered to lead a group of guild players to temporarily leave the guild. Together with Han Family Young Master, they sneaked into the main city of the clouds as a neutral player.
