Chapter 100: The Guild in a Dilemma!
When was the first time we failed to save a team member?
Tangyuan silently thought, "That's right, it seems that when we passed through the Bronx, we heard that a new group of pirates had moved there. In order to test the waters, he sent his newly trained student with a fake fleet to investigate."
This kind of thing is very common in Hokkaido. When faced with unfamiliar pirates or unfamiliar forces, in order not to lose the lives and attempts of the high-level players, they will send newcomers to scout out the mines.
That time, they encountered a tough opponent. All seven students they had taught were wiped out. Moreover, because the pirate crew was too powerful, the North Sea Crew didn't even dare to go to pick up the dead players and run them back to their corpses. In the vast ocean, those young newcomers were forced to start over.
All seven saw through the true nature of the Hokkaido Society and planned to find another way out. However, for Hokkaido, there was no option to leave. Not returning to the group for a long time and deliberately avoiding the summons of Hokkaido members were considered treason. All seven were wanted and captured and tortured to death time and time again until they used up their last chance to revive.
When you can't do anything yourself, when you send the students you taught to be cannon fodder, you can't do anything either. When you're hunting down your own students, you can't do anything either.
This is my status, and it's no wonder that many players who understand this become distant from me after graduating from my guild.
In many people's eyes, he was just one of the guild members, merely an accomplice responsible for training assassins.
They were overthinking it. How could they possibly be qualified to be accomplices with these wolves in sheep's clothing?
"Don't even think about dying, and don't even think about being reborn." The Green Fox approached step by step like a demon: "I have a record of every resurrection point you have. You can't escape. If you do... it will only make you more miserable."
"It's really kind of you to go to so much trouble for someone as insignificant as me." Tangyuan grinned and said, "You even remember every respawn point. It's an honor that the guild leader pays so much attention to me."
"Because I knew that one day you would betray me, betray the guild!" Blue Fox sneered. "When I tortured and killed Eileen seven times in front of you, and you didn't react at all, I knew you were a venomous snake, a very good at hiding your true nature!"
"What brilliant logic..." Tangyuan looked at the other person coldly: "You used that method to test me. If I break down, I'm disloyal to you; if I stay calm, I'm a venomous snake. Either way, you don't trust me, so why bother testing me like that?"
"Because I wanted to do it." Qinghu didn't hide anything and said directly, "I just wanted to see if someone like you who pretends to be honest would explode or continue to be a coward and hide. I'm actually very happy that you chose the latter. I just wanted to see what you would do next. I didn't expect that you would actually find a chance to almost turn things around."
"I understand..." Tangyuan smiled, recalling the little girl who used to pester him to teach her special skills. Her smile widened even more: "A middle-aged bankrupt, a stray dog whose wife and child ran away, moved to a different place, gained a little power, and suddenly he's like this? Is this how the world is? Or is this how people are?"
Qinghu's smile vanished. He hated it when people mentioned his past life, and few people knew what they were in their past lives. This guy in front of him was one of them.
First, cut off his tongue, then paralyze his limbs so he can't commit suicide. Then, get the rest of the information from his new apprentices step by step.
But just as I tried to move, I found that I couldn't move my body at all.
It's not that it can't move... it's more like it's gone.
He fell heavily to the ground, and with difficulty, he propped himself up. Only then did he realize that his limbs had been completely severed at some point!
What happened?
What did this guy do?
Wasn't he already exhausted?
"Let me guess what you were trying to do just now?" Tangyuan walked step by step in front of Qinghu. The surrounding shadows came, and she pried open Qinghu's mouth from his shadow, instantly cutting off his tongue and knocking out all his teeth!
"Is that what you're planning to do?" Tangyuan grinned.
The situation reversed so quickly that Qinghu didn't even have time to be angry; he could only stare at the other party in a pained and twisted manner.
But most of the players around had seen it clearly: the green fox was crippled by the shadows around it; to be precise, the shadows around it suddenly came to life!
The reflections of trees, city walls, and even the weapons in the hands of countless players in the guild all transformed into sharp blades. While the guild leader of Beihai was still thinking about how to torture his subordinate, his limbs were silently severed!
This bizarre ability sends chills down your spine!
"I have two professions..." Tangyuan said slowly, "You're right. I did prepare to betray you and kill you a long time ago. So I secretly paid a high price to get a warlock apprentice profession. For so many years I have endured like a dog, just so that the profession I was hiding could slowly develop. Maybe, as you said, I will never have the chance in my life, but I still have to be prepared."
"I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly. I originally thought that I might not even get this opportunity until the day you die of old age."
Magic-based classes have the best chance of getting revenge, but they are also the most expensive to level up. He originally thought he didn't have that chance, but he didn't expect to get such a large amount of experience points in Holy Stone City.
He chose to use a lot of his experience on warlocks, and it worked wonders.
"Shadow Sorcerer..." Tangyuan demonstrated it to him. The blood left behind by the other party was stretched and deformed under the influence of the shadow, turning into his weapon.
"Within this area, the shadows of every species are my weapons. Rest assured, I will guard your corpses well; no one will escape."
Qinghu stared intently at his opponent, while Jianfeng Legend and the others in the distance also understood his opponent's abilities.
The so-called Shadow Sorcerer should be able to make the shadows of an area completely his weapon within a certain range, and this ability happens to be very effective against people who have just run back to their corpses.
Players who successfully run back from their corpses will first enter a weakened state, and secondly, they will be permanently respawned at the respawn location, with a regeneration period of about five seconds. As for the Shadow Mage, he openly announced his abilities, and even if Qinghu had friends outside, they would not dare to easily approach that person's territory.
"My feud with Guild Leader Qinghu is personal. As for the other members of the Beihai Guild, if they want to enter Holy Stone City, they can organize themselves and I won't stop them. But if they want to get close to this place, they can try. I'll only warn you once: anyone who dies here can forget about respawning."
All the players in the Beihai Guild looked at each other, not daring to move for a moment. If they didn't save the guild leader and these high-level players now, what would happen if the guild leader and these high-level players were to be resurrected in the future? Would they come after them?
But if we go to rescue the chairman and the others now, we'll definitely end up the same way.
Qinghu wanted to shout that the other party was a liar, that the other party's shadow mage ability could not be used for long, and that as long as human lives were used to fill the gap, his mana bar would definitely be exhausted.
But now his tongue has been cut off, and he can't make a sound.
Tangyuan sat in the middle with his eyes closed, declaring that the area where the bodies of Qinghu and his gang were located was now a restricted area. He had already given the opportunity to the Beihai Society. Many of those members were trained by him, but many had already been tamed by Qinghu's ruthless methods. Whether they dared to take this opportunity to break away and become independent depended on their own courage.
"Tangyuan..." one of the Beihai Gang members stepped forward: "Is there really a chance inside?"
"Yes!" Tangyuan said directly, "but not everyone has it."
"If the president hadn't stopped you, would you still have chosen to turn against him?" another person asked.
Tangyuan looked at the other person and finally said, "No, I'll wait for a more secure time, but there's no other way now."
'
"Is it worth it?" This time, the question wasn't from the North Sea Society, but from Black Rose: "You're guarding these people's corpses. If Qinghu and the others choose to advance their rebirth, they'll certainly suffer huge losses and might not get this chance again. But it's the same for you. By guarding them, you're also... giving up the rest of the mission, right?"
"It was worth it..." Tangyuan smiled. "At least I managed to protect this last batch of students."
In the Beihai Society, many assassins who had been brought out by Tangyuan had complicated expressions. They had always believed that Tangyuan and the society leader were in cahoots.
"He's a man with guts. Good luck..." Black Rose smiled, then looked at Sword Wind Legend and the other two. They all understood that the time to enter Holy Stone City had come.
The atmosphere was strange between the leaders of the other two guilds, especially at the hunting grounds.
The guild is alright; the atmosphere is quite good. The guild leader is a straightforward person and has never done anything as perverse as Qinghu. However, the fundamental issue of resources being concentrated in the hands of a few people remains unchanged.
Now that's great! Everyone knows that going into Holy Stone City now could yield huge benefits. Just look at Tangyuan and his group. In just two days, six or seven novice assassins seized an opportunity and came out to wipe out their former employers!
What would happen if their people were sent in?
The most elite warriors and the guild leader are unable to enter again due to the rules. If we send our subordinates in now, what if they manage to get an opportunity? Will they report this to the guild?
If the镖人 (bodyguard/escort) wasn't confident, the higher-ups at the hunting grounds were even less confident.
But if we don't let people in, are we just going to watch those random players who aren't part of a guild snatch up all the opportunities?
Isn't that nonsense?
For a moment, the leaders of the two guilds were caught in a dilemma!
