Chapter 975: Destination: Middle Street
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The most important thing in a team was to follow instructions. Although Quan Zhen Sect had no discipline, under normal circumstances, they usually followed Fearless’ orders.
Everyone had their strengths and one of the few good points these guys had was to take the opinion of a professional.
Even less had to be said about Team Red Flame as now that they had Quan Zhen Sect’s method to look for fragments, it became way easier and faster to complete quests.
Now that Fearless wanted Team Red Flame to look for fragments and not participate in the chase, of course they were happy to do so. Even if Mo Xiaobei did not remind them, they were fine with it.
Under Fearless’ command, Quan Zhen Sect continued to bait Shady Glow and the rest, bringing them on a wild goose chase...
Quan Zhen Sect’s players were experts in stalking and counter-stalking, and were all well-versed at escaping sneakily, not needing to interact with their opponent. Even if Shady Glow and the rest had Quan Zhen Sect’s coordinates, they only got to see a back view every time before losing their target.
At the same time, all the teams who bought the information began to gather at Thorn City and Thorn City’s players could feel that there were way more strangers in Thorn City that day.
However, everyone was not overly concerned with it.
After all, all these strangers were in a team of ten people and had a different symbol on their chests so obviously, they were from different guilds. If large guilds from other main cities entered in the masses, they would have been watched by Thorn City’s players.
As more and more players gathered, Quan Zhen Sect also felt that something was amiss.
“Damn, why are there more and more people after us?” Crotch Lord was the first person to sense something was odd.
Although Crotch Lord was not good at escaping due to his job limitations, his exceptional reaction ability could help him bring tens of players on a wild goose chase. However, now that there were thousands of people chasing after Quan Zhen Sect, each of them had hundreds of people following them and the number was increasing. Under such a situation,
Fearless said, “The enemy is an old opponent of ours. Do you think he will pull all his trust in those people from the beginning? He must have spread our information around.”
Fearless was not wrong. If he was a new opponent, they would underestimate Quan Zhen Sect’s abilities because of the number of people they had.
However, the longer they fought with Quan Zhen Sect, the more they would understand Quan Zhen Sect’s style and abilities.
Especially since they have ascertained that their current enemy was Hidden Lurker, he had experienced the ups and downs in Termination Manor, as well as been chased down by Wang Yu, no one could be clearer than him in terms of how scary Quan Zhen Sect was. Why would he innocently think that a mere hundred people could take down the entire Quan Zhen Sect.
Hence, it was within Fearless’ expectation that there were more and more people looking for them.
“Damn, how shameless!” Seeing how cunning his opponent was, Crotch Lord said fuming mad, “What should I do now? There are people everywhere. I don’t think I can hold on for long.”
“What time is it now?” Fearless asked calmly.
Spring Halo said, “Around five.”
“Yup, it is almost five! When I went offline to pee, it was just past four-thirty,” Wang Yu said with certainty.
Ming Du heard him and said, “Damn, we were chased for four hours. I’ve never been so pathetic. When can we counterattack?”
Ming Du was not to be blamed for his anger as Quan Zhen Sect always used the tactic of attacking their enemy when they were tired and escaping when their enemy attacked them. Hence, even if they suffered losses, at least they felt a sense of accomplishment.
However, the situation now was that they could not even retaliate and could only escape. Although they did not suffer much loss, it was not Quan Zhen Sect’s style.
“It is five already...” Fearless thought for a bit and said, “We’re almost there. Crotch Lord, don’t bother with those chasing after you, just go to the Middle Street. If you can’t hang in there, use your top skills. You must bring them to the Middle Street.”
“Alright!” Crotch Lord nodded helplessly.
“How about us?” Ming Du asked anxiously.
Fearless said, “You guys are fast, run two more round first.”
“F*ck!! More running?” Upon hearing Fearless’ order, Ming Du almost killed someone.
Wang Yu persuaded him with a smile, “Are you dumb? When you are surrounded, kill a few of them...”
“They can’t catch up with me,” Ming Du said despondently.
“Hehe!” Everyone laughed, “Can’t you run slower?”
“Haha, right, when I was surrounded, it felt so good to use an [Instantaneous Shadow Kill] to kill a few of them!” Vainglory said proudly.
“F*ck, you guys are really despicable! I look down on you!” Ming Du heard him and finally understood what they meant and the guild chat was filled with emoticons from Ming Du.
Fearless casually muted Ming Du then said seriously, “You bunch dare to defy my orders? If anyone brings those guys here, watch out!”
“Hey? What did I say? I did not understand what you guys said... I just told Ming Du not to sit and wait for death,” Wang Yu, who instigated Ming Du to kill, quickly clarified.
“We didn’t understand too... We told Ming Du to run slower so as not to lose the rest,” everyone stated their good intentions.
Only Vainglory who looked puzzled was teary-eyed too, “B*stards... A bunch of bad guys!”
“Child, you are still young...” Everyone shook their heads and sighed.
...
Just as everyone was verbally attacking, Crotch Lord was already sprinting around with hundreds of people following him.
A Shield Warrior’s movement speed was indeed his greatest weakness. Other than Priests, no other jobs were slower than them. It was also because everyone wanted to catch Crotch Lord alive, they were equipped with top-notch equipment and even had a god-grade shield, or else based on his speed, he would not have been able to keep so many of them chasing him.
Furthermore, those chasing him were not on the same team. When Crotch Lord hid in a crowd, no one dared to use an AOE skill nor control skills. This did help Crotch Lord quite a bit.
At that point in time, Crotch Lord used actions to prove what a Guardian was... One person and one shield, just like a war chariot, he charged around as though there were no boundaries around, causing his opponent much pain.
It was not surprising as Crotch Lord was like a fish, easing in between the crowd, causing everyone not knowing how to attack him. Actually, everyone’s aim was not to kill him as, if they killed him, they would just let those at the resurrection point take advantage of him.
These greedy lads had different intentions of their own. If they were losing, they would be more united but now that they were chasing their opponent, their mentality changed as they all thought they were capable enough to take down Quan Zhen Sect so none of them was willing to help the rest.
