Chapter 571: Prey
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Let’s kill him first!”
Wang Yu’s appearance diverted the target of these United Alliance’s players once again. Everyone started fighting to be the first one to chase after Wang Yu.
“Let’s continue!” Fearless ordered and the Quan Zhen Sect on the Quan Zhen Sect launched another wave of attacks. Once again, United Alliance took a hit... Immediately after the wave of attacks, the Quan Zhen Sect went into hiding yet again.
Because they were more prepared this time around, Quan Zhen Sect’s ambush was not as impressive as the first. Even so, it was enough to kill over 50 to 60 players.
United Alliance’s 300 men squad was now left with less than a hundred men in just less than two rounds of attacks.
Mercy Hand panicked as he shouted in the chat, “Stop charging at him blindly! Just stay in our formation. Otherwise, we are doomed.”
“Stay in our formation?! Do you know where they are hiding?” Someone argued.
Mercy Hand just realised that his troop lost almost two third of their men and none of them knew where they were hiding. At the thought of this, Mercy Hand’s fears sprung up spontaneously.
The conversation between these two men made everyone else realised the dire situation they were currently in. They couldn’t help but shiver in fear.
True fear was when they didn’t even know where the enemy was coming from.
“Retreat! Let’s retreat quickly!” Mercy Hand nervously instructed the rest of his men.
“But the person on the tree is still alive!”
Mercy Hand called out, “It’s okay! Let’s just go! Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know how you die!”
After hearing Mercy Hand’s words, nobody knew that he was right and there was no point in staying. Hence, they turned as they ran out off the forest.
As the players from United Alliance ran away, Wang Yu jumped off the tree and said, “They’re gone.”
“We should go too!” Fearless jumped off the rock and the others followed closely behind him.
“Where to?” Everyone asked.
Fearless replied, “To dig their graves!”
This bunch of fellas from the Quan Zhen Sect loved having some excitement in their lives. They would never be satisfied with settling especially after being chased for an extended period of time by so many men. Now that Fearless mentioned this, every single one of them started pumping themselves up with excitement.
“We’ve been waiting for you to say this!” Ming Du waved his staff around, “F*ck! Even if we are really going to die, it is worth it if we can teach them a lesson!”
“Indeed, Old Li is right!” Vainglory praised as everyone else nodded their head in conviction.
Since they were playing a game, they should truly enjoy themselves and avenge themselves after suffering a loss. In reality, they were already stress at work so why should they allow themselves to be bullied in a game?
“Old Fish, what about you?” Fearless turned to Darknorth Fisher.
There was no need to ask everybody else. Some of them were veteran experts from the Quan Zhen Sect while others started playing the game with Quan Zhen Sect. All of them were not afraid of causing troubles. Only Darknorth Fisher was one who would consider past cause and future effect in everything he do. He was a person who prefered living a smooth life.
Darknorth Fisher took out his dagger and said in an unhappy tone, “What about me? I am also a member of the Quan Zhen Sect! Why do you think I’m also known as the ‘Mercernary King’?”
“Great! As long as I’m around, nobody will die. All you need to do is to listen to my instructions.” Fearless nodded as he pointed at Thunderstorm City, “Later, Old Fish will hide in the east side. If you see an opportunity to cause a commotion, do it! Kill as many people as you can! If you can’t, go into Stealth mode. You just have to stall them.”
“Got it!” Darknorth Fisher responded.
Fearless pointed at the mountain walls, “Frost Blade, you shall hide at the mountain walls. Just like Old Fish, your job is to stall the enemy.”
Frost Blade nodded, “I understand.”
“What about me?” After Darknorth Fisher and Frost Blade had their jobs assigned to them, Wang Yu asked.
“No hurry! Old Bull, your job is the most important! You have to lure the prey to go in circles!” Fearless answered.
“Go in circles?” Wang Yu questioned, “How?”
Fearless responded, “Bring the prey into the coordinates of our trap!”
“This is simple!” Wang Yu replied.
“Old Bull is still the one who makes me feel the most confident!” Fearless said with pride. Wang Yu was probably the only person in the game who dared to say that luring two huge guilds of men was a simple task.
Following that, Fearless said to the rest, “Everyone else follow me and listen to me.”
When Fearless was still deploying his war tactics, the players from the United Alliance had already escaped out of the forest. At the same time, Hidden Lurker and Nian Liuyun had also returned to Official Road.
“How is it? Did you find them?” Hidden Lurker hurriedly asked Mercy Hand after seeing him.
The Quan Zhen Sect possessed something extremely important to Hidden Lurker. At this point in time, Hidden Lurker was more concerned about the whereabouts of the Quan Zhen Sect than anyone else.
Mercy Hand stammered, “They are in the right forest... However, they are simply too crafty so we didn’t manage to catch them.” Mercy Hand was not shameless enough to explain how he brought 300 men into the forest and left with less than a hundred men.
Hidden Lurker replied, “En! This is within our expectations. Hurry up and inform the people from Berserk Heavenlaw. We will tackle the Quan Zhen Sect together with them.”
Hidden Lurker already knew how impressive the Quan Zhen Sect from many years ago. Being unscrupulous had always been Quan Zhen Sect’s unique characteristic. Trying to catch these crafty fellas under such environment was undoubtedly difficult even for players of his calibre.
“But Boss... Doesn’t the Quan Zhen Sect have a guild advancement tool?” Mercy Hand looked troubled as he asked. Guild advancement tool... If Berserk Heavenlaw intervene and they really managed to capture Quan Zhen Sect, it was unknown as to who the guild advancement tool will fall to.
Hidden Lurker glared at Mercy Hand, “I know what I’m doing. All you need to do is to follow what I say.”
Mercy Hand felt helpless as he sent a message to Wild Thunderheart.
Quan Zhen Sect is here on the right side. Hurry here and capture them! Don’t say we’re being selfish!”
Wild Thunderheart brought his men in search of the Quan Zhen Sect for almost half of day with no results. Just as they were going to give up, they received a message from United Alliance. In their hearts, they couldn’t control their excitement. Even so, they replied, “Seems like you guys aren’t capable enough to capture them?”
“Quit spouting nonsense! Are you coming?”
“Coming!”
Very quickly, players from Berserk Heavenlaw emerged from the left side of the forest.
As Hidden Lurker noticed the number of players on Berserk Heavenlaw’s side, Hidden Lurker was extremely pleased in his heart. He asked Wild Thunderheart, “Is Boss Thundergod around?”
Wild Thunderheart replied, “Boss Thundergod brought some men to protect the Ironcliff Fortress so that nobody will be able to pass through.”
“I see... I am more experienced in terms of dealing with the Quan Zhen Sect. If we want to catch them, I need to be in command. I wonder if you have any objection?” Hidden Lurker was also a crafty fella. When he realised that Berserk Thundergod was not around, he instantly wanted the command.
“As long as we can capture them, I have no objections!”
Wild Thunderheart coveted for the tools that the Quan Zhen Sect possessed. He didn’t care who was in command hence, he agreed readily.
“Alright! You guys follow me as we’re going into the forest now.” Hidden Lurker said.
“Wait! Why are you guys in front?” Wild Thunderheart was not an idiot. Their prey consisted of merely ten players. They were not dealing with hundreds or thousands of players like they had on their side. Naturally, whoever was in front would have a higher possibility of capturing the prey.
Hidden Lurker laughed as he replied, “Since you mention this, how about you guys go ahead and we’ll stay at the back?”
“Boss...” Mercy Hand was shocked and just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Hidden Lurker.
Wild Thunderheart chuckled, “Boss Hidden Lurker is truly an easy-going person!”
