This piece of [Wild Boar Meat] had dropped earlier when the Snow Balm father-daughter duo and the five-man team of East Mountain Sword fought the [Black Wild Boar].
Snow Balm didn’t know if the NPCs in “Evolution” could be bribed, but since she had the [Wild Boar Meat], she decided to give it a try.
Upon seeing the [Wild Boar Meat], the woodcutter’s eyes widened.
The wood he cut in a busy day would probably not be worth such a large piece of wild boar meat!
So, the woodcutter wiped his salivating mouth and discreetly accepted the meat, saying: “Cough cough, I’ll tell you, but you can’t tell anyone else, okay?”
“Sure, no problem.” The Snow Balm father-daughter duo’s eyes lit up, and they eagerly awaited for him to speak.
“There was an adventurer named ‘Nemesis’…” the woodcutter said leisurely.
After a while…
A resentful female voice echoed from the woods, “Nemesis! I will remember you!”
…
At the same time, Su Yu was on his way back to the novice village.
But for some reason, he suddenly felt chilled to the bone.
“What’s going on? Did I forget to turn off the air conditioner in the rental house? I must remember to turn it off when I go eat.” Su Yu thought and continued to walk forward.
When he reached the village entrance, Su Yu found that a large group of players had gathered there, blocking the path into the village.
The players were divided into two sides, arguing loudly, each person redder and more flustered than the last.
On the inner side of the entrance, a well-equipped warrior was leading a group of over a hundred people, effectively barring the way into the village. They confidently announced:
“Everyone, please do us a favor for the Zhan Tian Guild! Our leader has set his sights on a skill scroll in the goods station, but he doesn’t have enough money. We need your generous donations.”
“When our Zhan Tian Guild gets rich, we promise to pay back double of everything we received today! What we say, we will do!”
Su Yu took a look at this warrior’s name and was taken aback.
He recognized this name, [Red-Eyed Black Dragon], a core member of the Emperor Blood Slays the Sky Guild and quite a big shot in his past life.
Why was he here all of a sudden? And pretending to be a member of the Zhan Tian Guild?
But Su Yu wasn’t in a hurry, he decided to keep watching.
The players at the village entrance were angry:
“Why should we give you money because you don’t have enough?”
“Exactly! Our money doesn’t just blow in with the wind!”
“You’re charging an entry fee to the village, have you no shame?”
“I’ve played ‘Magic Realm’ before and I thought Zhan Tian was a reputable guild! I really was blind!”
The players outside the village were indignant and denounced their opponents.
The Red-Eyed Black Dragon wasn’t taking their complaints seriously, they refused to let anyone in without paying.
The situation between the groups began to intensify and a standoff commenced.
…
From this, Su Yu got a grasp of the situation.
Turns out members of the Emperor Blood guild were posing as members of the Zhan Tian Guild and charging an entry fee to the village.
How interesting!
Su Yu developed an interest in the situation and stood silently on the side, watching how things would unfold.
…
A smug smile was plastered across Red-Eyed Black Dragon’s face.
He threatened, “Without paying, I won’t let anyone enter the village! A group of rebels was just forced offline by us, want to try?”
Behind the Emperor Blood Guild, a group of ordinary players (shills) who had already entered the village also began to chime in:
“Everyone, calm down!”
“Isn’t it just one spiritual energy coin! Just pay the fee; it’s better than being forcibly kicked offline, right?”
“It’s better to pay the money and avoid disaster.”
“Despite everything, Zhan Tian is the largest guild; we should give them some face.”
Under the persuasion of the players (shills) who had entered the village, a lot of the ordinary players were starting to waver.
Indeed, one spiritual energy coin wasn’t much, it’s equivalent to running one mission, being kicked off for half an hour would be more of a loss.
However, there were still a lot of players who chose to stand their ground:
“You guys are full of shit! Just because you are a large guild, should we be oppressed?”
“We have to put up with our boss’s airs at work, our wife’s tantrums at home, even the cat in our house is more privileged than us. Why should we tolerate this nonsense in a game too?”
“That’s right! Let’s fight them!”
“Let’s fight them together! I don’t believe we cannot beat this damned Zhan Tian guild!”
The player’s emotions were blazing, a lot of them drew their weapons and launched an attack against Red-Eyed Black Dragon and the members of Emperor Blood.
However, Red-Eyed Black Dragon sneered, “Heh, overestimating yourself!”
Then he turned back and ordered: “All of you, listen! Attack the ones who are leading!”
“Understood!”
Members of the Emperor Blood guild sprang into action immediately, engaging in combat with the ordinary players at the village entrance.
…
Since the players were generally only level 1 or 2 and only knew one skill, the fight wasn’t very exciting.
But because there were over three hundred participants, there were constant flashes of white light in the middle of the battlefield.
Each white light flash signified a player being killed.
Su Yu watched calmly from the side.
However, even without watching, he knew that Emperor Blood would have the upper hand.
Although there were more average players, their lack of unity made it hard for them to succeed.
Just as he expected, not long after the fight at the village entrance started, Emperor Blood took control.
The leading players were the first to fall, their flashes of white light signaling their demise.
With the leaders gone, the morale of the remaining players plummeted.
Some players were only thinking about their own survival, willing to clash but reluctant to sacrifice;
and others were still debating about whether to pay the fee to avoid trouble, as it wouldn’t be wise to make enemies with a large guild over a single spiritual energy coin.
Each player had different thoughts.
The Emperor Blood members, on the other hand, with the promise of a payout from the guild leader, had no fear of dying and were willing to fight even if it meant getting killed.
In addition, the members of Emperor Blood were of higher levels, had better equipment, and knew how to coordinate their attack.
Although there were more ordinary players, they started to falter and lose their ground.
…
Seeing that the Emperor Blood Guild was about to take control of the situation, Red-Eyed Black Dragon flashed a victorious smile:
“A disunited mob! I’m giving you one last chance, pay the fee and leave! Or else, prepare to die!”
Hearing Red-Eyed Black Dragon’s words, some players hesitated.
Some ranged archers and mages even stopped their attacks and casting.
Just then, Su Yu made his move!
Su Yu had been waiting for a chance to retaliate against the Zhan Tian Guild. Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, how could he not seize it?
He didn’t care if these people were from Emperor Blood, posing as Zhan Tian’s members.
Su Yu stepped forward from the back line, raised his staff to cast a spell, and shouted:
“The Zhan Tian guild has gone too far! Do you think you’re unbeatable because you’re a part of a large guild? You will eventually become the enemy of all the players!”
Red-Eyed Black Dragon glanced at Su Yu and scoffed, “Tch! A little magician too afraid even to show his name…”
Crack!
Su Yu’s [Lightning Bolt] spell hit its mark, directly striking Red-Eyed Black Dragon.
-125!
Having just leveled up to level 2 with only 120 hit points, Red-Eyed Black Dragon fell, his white light fading on the streets.
The once arrogant dragon was now no more.
…
Seeing Red-Eyed Black Dragon die instantly and the huge “-125” that popped up over his head, the members of Emperor Blood and the other players were all stunned.
What the hell!
125 damage?!
A full health, level 2 warrior was instantly killed?!
What on earth is happening?!
Everyone turned their heads to look at Su Yu, their eyes full of disbelief.
