Chapter 1359: Sanguine Warflag Learning The Ropes
That’s right, it was the Southern Heaven Mighty God that was blasted to death by Fearless.
According to Assassin Monarch’s initial plan, the moment Scarless managed to swindle away the City Lord Seal from Wang Yu’s hands, she would immediately teleport away from Twilight City. Southern Heaven Mighty God and the rest would follow behind her.
Who would have known that Wang Yu’s reaction would be so quick and that he would decisively choose to seal off the city? Before the bunch from Assassin Monarch could make a run for it, they were already trapped within Twilight City. Thus, they could only helplessly choose to blend in with the Twilight City crowd and leave the teleportation point.
However, for people like Scarless to be able to accurately determine Fearless location previously, she naturally knew that there were services in the game which allowed a player to track the location of another. Even if there were so many players, Scarless was still afraid that her location would be pinpointed by Quan Zhen Sect.
After all, they did something against their conscience, and the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were not nice to provoke.
This was, at the end of the day, the home ground of Quan Zhen Sect. As long as they were trapped within this city, it was only a matter of time before they were found out.
However, the city’s gates had already been sealed. Thus, the people from Assassin Monarch were unable to avoid such a situation. In light of this, the manager of Assassin Monarch, Southern Heaven Mighty God, contacted Sanguine Warflag, in hopes of him helping them escape from the city.
Everyone must be thinking, “Is Southern Heaven Mighty God stupid? He actually dared to look for Sanguine Warflag for help?”
Of course, he wasn’t. On the contrary, Southern Heaven Mighty God was extremely wise to do so.
Sanguine Alliance was one of the top large guilds in the nation, and the scale of the guild, in the entire game, was amongst the top.
In the game, one held actual power as long as they had enough players underneath them. Thus, Southern Heaven Mighty God initially thought that the reason why the people from Quan Zhen Sect could occupy the City Lord position was purely out of luck. The true guild that had a say in the city was Sanguine Alliance. Therefore, as long as Sanguine Warflag gives the words, Quan Zhen Sect would have to obediently open the city’s gates.
Thus, it was only natural that he would look for Sanguine Warflag for help.
Clearly, Southern Heaven Mighty God had underestimated the influence of Quan Zhen Sect within Twilight City…
Sanguine Alliance was not only the guild that came into contact with Quan Zhen Sect the earliest, they were also the guild that were dealt with by Wang Yu the earliest. In this entire game, Sanguine Warflag was the person that best understood how fearsome the people from Quan Zhen Sect were.
Excluding Peerless Heaven, the guild standing behind Quan Zhen Sect, which Sanguine Alliance could not afford to provoke, just the Wang Yu and Fearless duo was sufficient to turn Sanguine Alliance upside down.
It was unthinkable for Sanguine Warflag to provoke such a monster just for the sake of some spare change…
After receiving Fearless’ message, Sanguine Warflag was stunned for a moment. He wanted to immediately reveal Southern Heaven Mighty God’s current location to Wang Yu to express his innocence in this matter.
However, after thinking twice, Sanguine Alliance was still a renowned large guild. Southern Heaven Mighty God merely asked Sanguine Alliance to escort Assassin Monarch out of the city. If word of their refusal gets spread out, it would be demeaning for their reputation.
Thus, after pondering over the situation for a moment, Sanguine Warflag decided to reject Southern Heaven Mighty God and said, “Whether the city gates could be opened or not, ultimately depends on Quan Zhen Sect’s decision. Our Sanguine Alliance has never come into conflict with Quan Zhen Sect. Thus, forcefully requesting them to do so would hurt the relationship between us two. I, Sanguine Warflag, am not this kind of a person.”
Sanguine Warflag was someone that had a way with his words. To think that he was able to twist his submissiveness to Quan Zhen Sect into something righteous instead… unfortunately, Southern Heaven Mighty God did not understand the meaning behind Sanguine Warflag’s words.
After all, Assassin Monarch was a guild that would willingly take up any odd jobs so long as they receive the right amount of money. Thus, they naturally thought that Sanguine Warflag was someone with the same mindset as them. Therefore, at this moment, Southern Heaven Mighty God thought that Sanguine Warflag was bargaining with him.
Hence, Southern Heaven Mighty God replied, “Boss Sanguine, you can’t say it like this. Quan Zhen Sect forcefully sealing off the city is severely affecting the gaming experience of the Twilight City players. Your actions can be said to be for the greater good, and you might even become the City Lord someday as long as your Citizen Popularity is high enough. Furthermore, our Assassin Monarch isn’t asking you to help us for nothing. As long as we successfully make it out of the city, there would be a 100,000 gold reward waiting for you.”
Now that Southern Heaven Might God had placed a hat on top of Sanguine Warflag’s head, and had even offered a sky-high price, he wasn’t afraid that Sanguine Warflag would reject such a deal anymore.
However, what Southern Heaven Mighty God didn’t know was that, after placing this hat on his head, Sanguine Warflag was even more afraid to do agree to this deal… Fighting for the greater good? Become the next City Lord? Stop finding trouble for me instead…
“It’s a matter of principle, not money!” Sanguine Warflag replied helplessly.
Southern Heaven Mighty God refused to back down and said, “We have a total of 15 people, how about 10,000 Gold per head? Boss Sanguine, this amount isn’t little. One shouldn’t be too greedy at times. It’s just a mere Quan Zhen Sect, are you really that afraid of offending them?”
“Heh!” After reading Southern Heaven Mighty God’s message, Sanguine Warflag’s mood turned bad.
F*ck, daddy here initially didn’t want to sabotage you, but clearly you’re not giving me any face… What are you trying to imply with those words?
Southern Heaven Mighty God was clearly implying that if Sanguine Warflag didn’t agree to this deal, he was afraid of Quan Zhen Sect!
There was a saying that goes, “You could have taken the road to heaven, but instead you chose the one leading to hell.”
Initially, Sanguine Warflag was inclined to express his good intentions to Wang Yu by revealing Assassin Monarch’s location to him. However, because of his guild’s reputation, he decided not to do so. Despite so, after hearing what Southern Heaven Mighty God said, Sanguine Warflag was no longer in a dilemma anymore and knew what he needed to do.
Thinking up till this point, Sanguine Warflag decisively replied Southern Heaven Mighty God’s message, “Since you are so sincere, I am not the kind of person to ignore your good intentions. Transfer the money over first, before meeting me ah Hans Bar.”
“That’s more like it! I’ll head over immediately!”
Upon seeing Sanguine Warflag’s reply, a smile bloomed on Southern Heaven Mighty God’s face. There truly wasn’t anything in this world that couldn’t be bought with money. If there was, it would just mean that the amount of money you had wasn’t enough…
“Alright, it’s settled! Everyone head over to Hans Bar!”
After finishing his negotiations with Sanguine Warflag, Southern Heaven Mighty God blasted another message in his guild chat. Following which, he said to Scarless, “Boss, we have to transfer 150,000 Gold to Sanguine Warflag. F*ck, this b*stard is really ruthless!”
“It’s just 150,000 Gold!” Scarless nonchalantly replied, “The people from Immortal Island transferred 500,000 gold to us, we will still profit from all of this! However, I feel that that Sanguine Warflag guy may be unreliable.”
“Oh?” The people from Assassin Monarch replied curiously, “What happened? Does Boss have any past history with Sanguine Warflag?”
“No! It’s just a woman’s intuition,” Scarless answered.
“Tsk!!” Upon hearing this, everyone smirked in disdain. Southern Heaven Mighty God was even arrogant and said, “How can a woman’s intuition be more reliable than gold! I do not believe 150,000 Gold isn’t enough to shake his heart!”
“You’re right! Let’s meet at the bar!”
Scarless nodded her head in agreement, before transferring 150,000 Gold over to Southern Heaven Mighty God. Following which, he transferred it over to Sanguine Warflag.
After receiving the Gold from Southern Heaven Mighty God, he immediately sent the Gold along with a message over to Fearless saying, “The people that Bull God is looking for is currently in Hans Bar!”
After sending the message, Sanguine Warflag revealed a gleeful smile.
He was able to receive so much gold for nothing, improve his relationship with Quan Zhen Sect and get back at Southern Heaven Mighty God all at the same time. This was simply killing three birds with one stone!
