Chapter 1092: Settling The Scores

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In <<REBIRTH>>, the authority given to a City Lord wasn’t especially big, and was in fact similar to the authority given to a guild leader of a large guild. It was just that a City Lord had to manage a larger number of players. Furthermore, the players in a city were different from that of a guild, they wouldn’t listen to orders of the City Lord.

However, there was an advantage in holding the position as a City Lord, one that established the prestige of such a title. It was the fact that the City Lord had the authority to command the city’s guards.

Every player knew of the strength of these guards. Even though the number of these guards only amounted in the hundreds, being able to mobilise this force was equivalent to having the strongest army at one’s command.

As overpowered as a player can be, in front of these guards which had the highest damage outputs, they wouldn’t be able to put up much of a resistance at all.

Paying compensation to the victor was merely a financial loss… For large guilds that had tens of thousands of players under them, paying this sum was a small matter.

However, incurring the wrath of the city’s City Lord was an entirely different matter altogether.

The headquarters of Apocalypse was situated in Sky Dragon City, and thus, the players of Apocalypse were all citizens under Feng Yun Realm.

With this feud, it would be extremely difficult for Apocalypse to survive in Sky Dragon City in the future. After all, with the power that Feng Yun Realm had in his hands, eliminating Apocalypse was as simple as crushing an ant.

Even since ancient times, there was never any good outcome for those that rebelled against those in power.

“Kekeke…” Upon hearing Fearless’ words, everyone else cheekily laughed and said, “F*ck, apart from teaching Feng Yun Realm a lesson, you even managed to strike against Apocalypse. That’s simply killing two birds with one stone! Fearless old dog, you really are too sinister.”

“Dog sh*t!” Fearless raged and said, “Daddy here isn’t that sort of a person! I never expected Feng Yun Realm to be able to last so long and suppress the countless of players from Apocalypse.”

“So what should we do now? Do we take our leave?” everyone asked.

In the battle of two tigers, there would inevitably be a side that incurs the most losses. The battle between Apocalypse and Heavenly Alliance wasn’t something that could be stopped on a whim, unless there was an even more powerful guild that decided to interfere.

The players from Quan Zhen Sect were more than capable of urging others to fight and not the other way around.

No one would even bother to spare a glance to the few players from Quan Zhen Sect, much less listen to what they had to say.

Furthermore, this problem started because of Quan Zhen Sect. If the players from Quan Zhen Sect were to stick their heads out in this matter, the first to die would be them.

“Heng!” Fearless smirked and said, “We naturally can’t be so petty. This favour, we will be sure to return in full.”

“How are we going to do that…”

Everyone was feeling helpless at the moment. Even though what Fearless said made sense, given the current situation, there was nothing much anyone could do.

For a moment, everyone was at a loss for what to do.

Retreating would be a disloyal act; advancing was an impossible task either. At the end of the day, what mattered was a player’s loyalty. If a player lacked this, they would not be able to survive anywhere in the gaming world and would not be able to find any friends either.

Of course, if Apocalypse were to lend their strength once more, advancing wouldn’t be too difficult. Fearless had already strategized that as long as they were able to break into the headquarters, they could capture Feng Yun Realm and extort him once more.

However, the rest of them couldn’t even break through the gates, much less carry out the plan that Fearless had planned.

“Boom!”

Just when everyone was at a loss, a loud bang similar to the cracking of thunder resounded through the air. A hazy figure suddenly dropped from the sky and landed on the walls of Heavenly Alliance headquarters, a circle of white light emanated from this person’s feet.

“F*ck, it’s Old Bull. He managed to deal with those Martial Artist brats so quickly?”

Upon seeing the descending figure of Wang Yu, the rest from Quan Zhen Sect couldn’t help but be stunned by this realisation.

As players that had fought against Purity, the people from Quan Zhen Sect naturally knew how formidable Purity was.

However, it had only been a short while and yet Wang Yu had already dealt with that troublesome bunch of players. It was simply too overbearing, Wang Yu clearly wasn’t human.

Due to Wang Yu’s abrupt entrance, not just the players from Quan Zhen Sect, the mercenary players that were hired by Feng Yun Realm were scared out of their wits. They hurriedly raised their heads to see Wang Yu’s indifferent expression gazing upon them atop the walls.

Upon seeing this terrifying yet familiar face, a chill went down everyone’s spine as they instinctively retreated a few steps back from Wang Yu.

“Everyone, don’t be afraid!” Upon seeing everyone’s fearful reaction towards his entrance, Wang Yu casually waved his hand and calmly said, “My target today is only Feng Yun Realm. The rest of you can take your leave.”

“…”

When the mercenary players heard what Wang Yu said, they were at a loss for what to do. They glanced at each other, as well as the group comprising of Feng Yun Realm and the players from the Twelve Celestial Bodies, a troubled look on their faces.

Everyone here was trying to make a living. No one dared to provoke a death god like Wang Yu. However, as hired troops, trust was the most important factor. If they were to accept their employer’s money but not deliver their promised services, how were they supposed to continue selling their services in the future? Furthermore, they were the mercenary players from Freedom City, and the community had a very high level of trust placed in the services that they provided. If they were to abandon their employer just because they feared dying, it wouldn’t just be their own reputation that is ruined.

Additionally, if they really did so, the other mercenary players from the two factions would also target and hunt them down themselves.

How could they possibly risk losing their living just for the fear of temporarily dying?

“Not retreating?”

Seeing that the mercenary troops had no intention of backing down, Wang Yu frowned and asked.

There was a limit to what one player could do. Furthermore, given such a terrain, if these mercenary players really wanted to deal with Wang Yu, with so many experienced players working together, Wang Yu wouldn’t be able to gain much advantage either. It was merely because the current mercenary players were momentarily afraid of Wang Yu, which made them seem like the weaker party.

Wang Yu wasn’t an overly arrogant person either, thus he naturally knew of this too. If possible, he naturally wouldn’t want to directly deal with these mercenary troops either.

“…”

The mercenary players didn’t respond to Wang Yu either. They merely stood rooted on the spot, feeling extremely conflicted.

Facing the murderous and brutal Wang Yu, Feng Yun Realm, who was hiding behind the Twelve Celestial Bodies, weakly shouted, “Surnamed… surnamed Iron, I do not have any grudges with you, why are you targeting me.”

“Targeting you?”

Wang Yu coldly laughed and said, “Were you the one that called people to capture my Quan Zhen Sect players?”

“…”

Feng Yun Realm was speechless.

Feng Yun Realm didn’t know of the grudges that Purity had with Wang Yu. However, he was the one that financially assisted that group of people to head over to Twilight City to capture the Quan Zhen Sect’s players.

“They wanted to steal my equipment first,” Feng Yun Realm reasoned, after racking his brains for a reasonable explanation.

Seems like Feng Yun Realm was truly afraid of Wang Yu now. If it were somebody else, given Feng Yun Realm’s temper, he would have given the order to attack straight away.

Firepower prompted by justice.

“Haha!”

Wang Yu coldly laughed and said, “Whether the players from Quan Zhen Sect tried to steal your equipment is a separate matter altogether. But did my wife provoke you? Why did you capture her?”

“Your… your wife? Who was it?”

Upon hearing Wang Yu’s words, Feng Yun Realm was stunned silly.

The players captured from Quan Zhen Sect were mostly male players… unless Wang Yu swung the other way?

“A level 15 Knight.”

Wang Yu glanced at the resurrection point a distance away and added, “She isn’t online anymore.”
