Chapter 463: Declaration of War
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If it was during the previous ti, the Duke of York would think that the Victorians were crazy.
Victoria City had only a few thousand residents, and yet it was attacking the York Territory. Previously, the Duke of York dispatched 3,000 Knights to attack Victoria City, but they were annihilated. Only a few hundred Knights and the commander, George, escaped. George was released voluntarily by Victoria City.
George brought back a lot of useful information. For example, his nephew Guinevere betrayed him and defected to Victoria City!
Also, the ruler of Victoria City was a self-proclaid Queen Victoria!
The Duke of York rembered that it was a handso man who bought the land from him.
None of that was important. The important fact was that the Victorians were attacking him, yet there were no capable Knights available to the Duke of York.
Did he have to conduct conscription in his vassal states?
If he conducted conscription because of a small Victoria City, a lot of people wouldn’t be happy. They would even belittle him.
He couldn’t care anymore. The Duke of York wrote letters and handed them to the guards, who rode in a hurry to the vassal states.
He had to kill those arrogant Victorians!
...
Sylvanas held her Blue Sylvanas Short Bow while she leaped nimbly on the rocks.
She found a suitable spot and readied the Bow as she took aim at the fighting crowd, then released an arrow.
The arrow hit a Gno who was wielding a Pike.
Below the Gno’s na were the words Changan City.
Arthur’s team was ambushed.
Sylvanas took aim at another target. Before she released the second arrow, an arrow flew towards Sylvanas. The archer’s aim wasn’t as good as that of Sylvanas, so the arrow landed on a huge rock beside her.
Though the arrow didn’t hit Sylvanas, a Gno and an Orc warrior charged towards her.
“Capture Sylvanas, I want her alive!” soone in the crowd shouted loudly.
Sylvanas was dumbstruck. She imdiately understood what the gars were trying to do to her.
They wanted her alive so that she couldn’t revive or move around.
They wanted to destroy her gaming experience by imprisoning her.
Unless she died of hunger, she would have to stay in the cage prepared by them.
This kind of gaplay wasn’t prohibited, so so gars did that. If the deeds were exposed on the discussion forum, the perpetrators would be denounced by the gars.
To a large Guild like Changan City, it was of no use. The chairman of Changan City didn’t care about those denouncents.
It wasn’t a problem as long as there was money. The individual obstinate gars were a minority. If there was money, there wouldn’t be much resistance from the gars.
It was only a ga.
Sylvanas didn’t want to be captured by them. Arthur, Sylvanas, and their team were ambushed by the gars of Changan City while they were on their way to the Surface World. After a chaotic battle, Sylvanas and so gars were separated by the Changan City Guild mbers. Though she could see Arthur fighting in the distance, she had no help from her comrades.
Sylvanas knew that she couldn’t allow herself to be captured. Suicide would be her last resort.
There were tens of gars behind her. Sylvanas couldn’t be sure she could kill all of them, but she was going to try.
Sylvanas continued escaping while looking for a good location to hide. The Guild mbers of Changan City were hot on her trail.
When Sylvanas arrived at a flat plateau, she stopped escaping.
Sylvanas put away her Short Bow and took out a Longbow while chanting. It was a Mana incantation that she had just learned.
The pursuers saw Sylvanas’ action and knew that she was going to attack soon. They weren’t afraid, their comrades would retrieve their equipnt once they perished.
Their main aim was to capture the high-ranking mbers of the Pioneer Alliance, such as Sylvanas.
Sylvanas completed her incantation, and a ball of fire appeared on the arrow.
She released the bowstring, and the flaming arrow flew towards her pursuers.
The flaming arrow landed on the ground in front of the pursuers and exploded violently. The mbers of Changan City didn’t expect Sylvanas to have such a powerful enchanted arrow. The flas from the explosion engulfed the pursuers.
Though the enchantnt was powerful, it consud a lot of Mana. The single flaming arrow depleted all her Mana. Sylvanas used up five Mana Skills Books to learn the enchantnt.
A Mana Skills Book was very expensive, and even a rich gar like Sylvanas took a long ti to accumulate the five Mana Skills Books. She was willing to pay, but there was no market for it. When a Mana Skills Book appeared in an auction, it would be bought instantly. She had to make agreents with her Guild mbers to purchase Mana Skills Books from them when they obtained one.
It was normal for such an expensive Mana Skill to have a powerful effect.
Not all of the pursuers were killed by Sylvanas’ Mana attack. Only three pursuers were killed instantly, and their equipnt was almost destroyed. The rest of the pursuers only had burn wounds.
Sylvanas knew that she was unable to escape, so she took out a Dagger and wanted to end her life.
Before she could stab her throat, a powerful Mana force restrained her. She saw a pursuer take out a tree branch Magic Wand and tear a Mana Scroll. With the power of the Mana Scroll and Magic Wand, a restraining spell was cast on Sylvanas. Her plan to kill herself failed.
The pursuers pounced on Sylvanas and buried her underneath their bodies. A gar took out a Spider Silk rope and tied up Sylvanas before carrying her away.
So Guild mbers of the Pioneer Alliance saw Sylvanas being captured and charged over, but they were too late.
The Guild mbers of Changan City ran off with the captured Sylvanas.
The battle at Arthur’s side continued to rage on. Arthur and his comrades weren’t in danger even though they were ambushed. They persisted and counterattacked based on their strong combat power.
When the last Guild mber of Changan City was killed by the Black Longsword of Arthur, a gar charged over and shouted, “Arthur! Sylvanas was captured by the Changan City mbers!”
“Wait, can you repeat yourself?” the bloodstained NotWearingPants replied first.
“Sylvanas was captured by the Changan City mbers!” the informant shouted.
“I heard our senior Sylvanas was captured by the monsters.” Peasant was able to crack a joke even in this dire situation.
The other gars weren’t worried. Even if they captured Sylvanas, they would only strip her equipnt and imprison her. They couldn’t ban her account, so they weren’t worried.
Sylvanas had Legendary Equipnt, which was Soulbound. Once Sylvanas died, the equipnt would return to the designated location.
Sylvanas had only lost a few days of gaplay. It was highly possible that Sylvanas might bribe the guard watching her. Perhaps she would be released soon.
Even Arthur wasn’t worried. It was normal to be captured by opposing gars. All online gars understood the feeling of being captured. It wasn’t shaful. Instead, it could be fun.
Even when Sylvanas was imprisoned in a cage, she could still crack jokes with her captors.
It was only a ga and not a life and death issue. It was important to have fun.
NotWearingPants shouted loudly, “Won’t we be missing Sylvanas? We have to save her, she’s a high-ranking mber. Our Guild’s reputation will be tarnished!”
BurningChestHair looked surprised at NotWearingPants and patted his shoulder, saying, “Gosh Bro, I didn’t know. You’re... so concerned about our Guild. You were a good choice for the Deputy Chairman. I was indignant, but now, I’m convinced. I didn’t think of this!”
The gars at the side also nodded. They hadn’t considered the point that Sylvanas was a high-ranking mber. If she was captured by Changan City, it would tarnish the Pioneer Alliance’s reputation. If she was being fooled by them or was forced to do sothing terrible, how would they resolve it?
Previously, due to Raintea, the two Guilds were at odds. Changan City would take the opportunity to take revenge.
The gars wanted to rescue Sylvanas, and Arthur nodded in agreent. The original plan was to explore the Surface World with the Victorians and create rapport with them. However, the Victorians were killed during the ambush by the mbers of Changan City. They couldn’t visit Victoria City now, but they could use the spare ti to rescue Sylvanas.
Since it was decided, Arthur had no intention to delay. He imdiately declared war on Changan City!
