Chapter 372: Chapter 353: Siege of the Divine Court
"This Feng Hua is really a haunting spirit; why on earth would he want to kill the boss?"
In Ice Wind Valley, Fu Chen said with a face full of worry:
"And how did he know our boss was here?"
Looking at the densely packed guild members on the canyon road, Fu Chen suddenly felt a mysterious unease rising within him.
Even though there were over three thousand players from his guild around, this still did not bring Fu Chen any sense of security.
After all, the name Feng Hua is almost synonymous with Undefeated War God for his opponents, making him nervous for a good reason.
Recently, the video of Feng Hua fighting in the skies above the Tang Family Castle in Goryeo has been transmitted back to the country from over there.
Now, the Hua Country gaming forum has been ignited by this video.
At this moment, Fu Chen’s heart is full of questions: everyone is playing games, so why is the gap between the two sides so vast?
Suddenly, Fu Chen’s heart tightened:
"The sky!"
Fu Chen hurriedly said to Divine Hall Yingying, who was also looking worried beside him:
"We blocked the entrance; what if Feng Hua flies over?"
Now almost everyone already knows that Feng Hua has an Elf Dragon, especially since this Elf Dragon is a multi-person mount.
He could very well bring a group of people from the Creation Mercenary Corps from above.
However, Divine Hall Yingying seemed to have anticipated this and did not react much, saying:
"Don’t worry, I have arranged everything."
Upon hearing this, Fu Chen immediately let out a breath of relief:
"That’s good."
On another peak at this moment, Tian Ci and Red Eyes flapped the Wings of Flight behind them, faces full of excitement:
"This is damn cool."
Just like Lin Yi at the start, both quickly mastered the flight technique once they wore the Wings of Flight.
Watching the two circling constantly in the sky, Shuai Diao Zha envyingly remarked:
"Once all this is over, I’ll go grind dungeons; I’m not leaving until I get it."
At this moment, Zhan Chen couldn’t help but respond:
"Eight chances a day, don’t hope for too much."
Upon hearing this, Shuai Diao Zha couldn’t help but moan:
"Feng boss, you gotta help me!"
"I want one of these too, no matter the cost."
Lin Yi glared at Shuai Diao Zha:
"Stop it."
"Once we finish this, I’ll help you grind too."
Upon hearing this, Shuai Diao Zha’s eyes immediately brightened:
"Feng boss, remember, you promised."
Lin Yi nodded quickly:
"Yes, I did say that."
"First, handle the business; we’ll talk about this later."
At this point, Tian Ci and Red Eyes had played enough and landed down.
Tian Ci said:
"Feng boss, just say the word; through fire or water, I’ll..."
Lin Yi hurriedly interrupted:
"Stop the nonsense, now listen to me."
"In a moment, you both stealth in and scout Stinger’s strength and surroundings for me."
"Once we know the insides, we’ll decide whether to go for a direct attack or a raid."
"We’re running short on time, so move quickly."
Hearing the business, the two nodded successively:
"Understood."
After finishing speaking, the two quickly entered stealth and Lin Yi watched them leaping into the canyon.
At the same time, Shengshi Drunkard suddenly contacted Lin Yi:
"Divine Court suddenly rushed to White Tiger City, does this have anything to do with you?"
Lin Yi was taken aback, saying somewhat inexplicably:
"Why would you think this is related to me?"
On the other side of the voice, Shengshi Drunkard chuckled:
"Because my people coincidentally saw you too."
Lin Yi frowned, surrounded by a white blur, unable to see anything.
Seems like there’s a thief from Shengshi around here.
Then, Shengshi Drunkard’s voice came again:
"Don’t misunderstand, I have no intention of tracking you."
"My people were just investigating those from Divine Court; they unexpectedly saw you guys."
At this point, Shengshi Drunkard changed the topic:
"Lord and I are ready to give Divine Court folks a ’big gift’, hence asking you first if it will have any impact on you."
"Such a coincidence?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi suddenly felt as if he was divinely assisted.
Just as he was worried about those from Divine Court, someone else was already plotting against them; is this scripted?
Lin Yi couldn’t help but be curious:
"What did this Divine Court do to offend you two?"
To push Shengshi and Holy Hall to join forces against them, did this Divine Court desecrate their ancestral grave or something?
However, Shengshi Drunkard suddenly revealed a shocking news:
"Luoshen became like this all because of the tricks behind Divine Court."
"Their ambition is too great; Lord and I cannot let them continue."
Afterward, Shengshi Drunkard paused before saying:
"Besides, we suspect their initial target wasn’t really Luoshen, but rather..."
At this point, Shengshi Drunkard suddenly stopped.
Lin Yi frowned:
"Not Luoshen?"
"Then who is it."
Shengshi Drunkard said in a low tone:
"It might be you!"
"What?"
Lin Yi instantly reacted:
"Me?"
"How’s that possible."
Lin Yi suddenly thought, could it be because of the Divine Hall matter?
But even if it’s because of the Divine Hall, they wouldn’t need to go to such lengths to target him, right?
The Drunken Sage of Shengshi then revealed something that sent chills down Lin Yi’s spine:
"Although it’s just speculation, based on the clues we’ve gathered, this deduction is probably quite accurate."
"If you had chosen to ’aid in battle’ for my Shengshi back then, perhaps Luoshen’s fate would have been ours."
Suddenly hearing this news made Lin Yi’s spine tingle as he said:
"How did you find out about this?"
The Drunken Sage of Shengshi replied:
"Afterwards, upon investigation, we found that members of the high and middle ranks of both our guild and Lord’s guild were contacted by a group of strangers during those few days. However, just before the agreement was to be reached, they suddenly disappeared."
"And that was the time when word came out that Luoshen had announced your aid to them."
Having said this, the Drunken Sage of Shengshi didn’t elaborate further:
"We’ll talk in detail later, for now, tell me, will our action affect you?"
While digesting the shocking news revealed by the Drunken Sage of Shengshi, Lin Yi replied:
"I have a mission to do, they are probably here to stop it."
The Drunken Sage of Shengshi:
"Alright, I understand."
After that, the two ended the communication, just as Tian Ci and Red Eyes appeared beside Lin Yi:
"Got it figured out."
Tian Ci pointed below Ice Wind Valley:
"Stinger’s position is inside a nearly complete house at the innermost part of Ice Wind Valley, very easy to find."
"Stinger is a level 49 boss, surrounded by dozens of level 45 monsters. If we can sneak in unnoticed, taking him down shouldn’t be too much of a problem."
Just as Tian Ci finished speaking, Lin Yi immediately said:
"Alright, then let’s just charge right in."
Everyone was taken aback by this; Red Eyes pointed at the large group below:
"What about them?"
"I reckon our commotion won’t be small; it’s impossible they won’t notice."
With everyone’s current strength, taking on a level 49 boss is already walking on thin ice.
And if the Divine Court intervenes, killing Stinger would be virtually impossible.
Yet Lin Yi smiled and said:
"There will be people to deal with them, just wait for a good show."
At this moment, Lin Yi’s mind replayed the shocking insider story revealed by the Drunken Sage of Shengshi: Was it the Divine Court that Luoshen Liunian warned him to be careful of?
No one could give Lin Yi an answer to this question right now.
......
Meanwhile, players noticed a large congregation of Shengshi Dynasty and Proud Sanctuary players at the Teleportation Array Plaza in Vermilion Bird City.
Seeing thousands of members from these two guilds gathered together, players started to discuss:
"What are they planning to do?"
Someone speculated:
"Are they preparing to grab a world BOSS?"
But the next moment, this guess was immediately overruled.
Because so far, no world-class BOSS has required the entire mobilization of two guilds.
Someone frankly said:
"What’s the point of guessing? Just watch where they go, then you’ll know."
Not long after, someone in the crowd shouted:
"There’s the Drunken Sage and Lord,"
At that moment, the Drunken Sage of Shengshi greeted Lord:
"Is everyone here?"
Proud Gaze Lord nodded:
"Everyone’s here."
The Drunken Sage of Shengshi then shouted:
"Alright, let’s move out."
Then someone in the crowd shouted:
"They’re off to White Tiger City!"
Other curious players quickly followed behind the two guilds:
"Let’s go watch the excitement."
At the same time, Fu Chen received this news in Ice Wind Valley, and immediately became anxious:
"What are these people trying to do?"
The actions of Shengshi Dynasty and Proud Sanctuary couldn’t be concealed.
When Fu Chen learned they appeared in White Tiger City, he immediately realized that their target was most likely him.
This sudden realization shocked Fu Chen.
Divine Hall Yingying’s face instantly turned grim:
"It must be Feng Hua’s doing."
Aside from this, she couldn’t think of anyone who could simultaneously mobilize these two guilds.
Of course, she also couldn’t foresee that these two guilds weren’t actually summoned by Feng Hua, and from the start, their target was her: the Divine Court.
Fu Chen asked anxiously:
"What should we do?"
"With their combined forces, we are no match at all."
Divine Hall Yingying clenched her teeth:
"We definitely can’t lose this location, or we won’t be able to change classes in the future."
Then Divine Hall Yingying looked at Fu Chen:
"There’s nothing left to hide, contact your people and act immediately."
Fu Chen was startled:
"Now?"
"But we’re not fully prepared yet!"
There was no time for hesitation, Divine Hall Yingying spoke directly:
"We can’t care about that now, just do it!"
Fu Chen pondered for a moment, then steeled himself:
"I’ll arrange it now."
Divine Hall Yingying gazed at the narrow entrance of Ice Wind Valley, and her mood grew heavier.
Although their initial aim was to surpass these two guilds and become the top guild in the Hua Country District,
the goal wasn’t achievable in a short time.
At least she wasn’t ready to face these two guilds yet.
She didn’t expect this day to come so soon, but to ensure Stinger’s safety, Divine Hall Yingying was willing to take the risk.
Suddenly, Divine Hall Yingying shouted behind the team:
"Everyone get ready!"
