Chapter 520: Chapter 488: I Am a Colossal Genius
Dwarf Capital Moradin City.
The citywide martial law alarm has left all the players divided in opinion. The thick smoke rising from the direction of the prison further fuels the players’ wild speculations. At this mont, having just returned from the Silver Hamr Armor Store, Skyshattering Thunder looks deeply troubled, with an extrely conflicted expression.
The Silver Hamr Armor Store is Prince Talberon’s secret enterprise and also the contact point where Skyshattering Thunder reports to the prince. Skyshattering Thunder has just secretly t with the store’s contact person under the guise of discussing business and reported that soone has co to repair Titan’s Grasp, which could potentially be disadvantageous to the prince.
But after all, the ga is still a ga; empty claims are worthless, and without solid evidence, you can’t spur an incident, and the NPCs couldn’t care less. Not to ntion that Skyshattering Thunder willingly gave up repairing Titan’s Grasp, which also made the NPCs sowhat displeased with him. So after a lot of talking, he still didn’t get through.
Therefore, Skyshattering Thunder pulled a big move and invited the NPC shop owner to a bet, wagering that sothing would definitely happen to the prince today. If the shop owner won, he would take 1 million Gold Coins, but if he lost, he wouldn’t have to pay a penny.
With such unfavorable betting terms and such a huge Gold Coin wager, the perennially greedy and gambling-loving dwarves had no reason not to accept.
Thus, the shop contact, eager to earn those 1 million Gold Coins, imdiately reported to Prince Talberon, reminding the prince to strengthen the security asures all around. Skyshattering Thunder also managed to achieve his own selfish goal at the cost of 1 million Gold Coins.
However, it was truly unexpected that, even after receiving prior warning, the prince still encountered trouble, and it was no small situation!
Da Fei, it must have been Da Fei’s doing, but what exactly is he up to? Was he successful or not?
Regardless of his success or failure, causing such a commotion still ans trouble for the prince, and it seems I won the bet. Although I didn’t win so much as a penny, perhaps this might win
further business opportunities?
As he was contemplating, an NPC porter entered, and his uniform was distinctly that of the Silver Hamr store! Skyshattering Cannon’s eyebrows twitched; here it cos!
The porter shouted, "Is Mr. Skyshattering Thunder here? Our boss is looking for you to discuss business, please co over."
As expected! In that instant, Skyshattering Thunder sensed a trendous opportunity opening its doors to him.
Silver Hamr Armor Store’s owner’s office.
The shop owner shook his head and heaved a long sigh, "Mr. Skyshattering Thunder, I actually have another purpose for looking for you, you won!"
Skyshattering Thunder, of course, also heaved a sigh understandingly, "Unexpectedly, there was still a problem. By the way, what exactly happened?"
The shop owner said gravely, "A spy has infiltrated the prison, freed a large number of serious criminals, and escaped into an Otherworld. Prince Talberon is extrely furious. And for well-known reasons, the prince cannot dispatch troops at will, so he needs a hero to help him capture the prison escapees. I have recomnded you; are you willing?"
Skyshattering Thunder stood there stunned! , capture soone? But I’m just an alternate character training in blacksmithing; how can I fight the legendary Da Fei?
Skyshattering Thunder frowned and said, "To serve Prince His Highness is my unquestionable responsibility, but in this condition—"
The shop owner shook his head, "As long as you have this loyalty, that’s enough! Right now, the prince is at the fifth level of the prison, the site of the incident, inspecting. This is the prince’s pass; all you need is this to find him!"
With the conversation having reached this point, to not go would be to throw away an opportunity that landed on his doorstep!
Skyshattering Thunder took the pass and spoke righteously, "Apart from my loyalty to Prince His Highness, I possess nothing and will go!"
The shop owner smiled and said, "That’s exactly what I was waiting to hear from you. Borrow these pieces of equipnt!"

...
In that instant, Skyshattering Thunder was stunned! Moradin’s Set! The pinnacle of dwarven craftsmanship could instantly arm a low-level mini-hero like himself into a super tank! Putting on the whole set added 70 to his Attack, 120 to his Defense, and 500 to his health! What kind of concept was this? Where in the world could he find such a strong player? With Attack and Defense at this level, tactics were unnecessary, just a single Rune Charge would annihilate everything!
The shopkeeper smiled and asked, "How does it feel?"
Skyshattering Thunder trembled with excitent. "I will not let His Highness down!"
The shopkeeper nodded. "Hit the road then, don’t keep the Prince waiting!"
...
Dwarf Prison, thick smoke billowing, vigilance extrely tight.
Skyshattering Thunder, clad in pitch-black battle armor, clanged his way through to the last level of the prison and saw the legendary Prince.
A gigantic dwarf with fiery-red hair, clad all in Fire Armor, with a massive fra—Fla Hand Talberon! This was the first ti Skyshattering Thunder had seen the Prince. At this mont, the Prince’s anger seed to make the flas of his Fla Cloak roar fiercely.
Skyshattering Thunder promptly saluted. "May I know how I can relieve Your Highness’s worries?"
Talberon slowly turned around and looked at Skyshattering Thunder, the flas in his eyes burning fiercely! Was this even human? Skyshattering Thunder was startled and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any longer.
Talberon tossed a black crystal to his Deputy Officer, then turned silent once more.
Then, the Deputy Officer stepped forward with the crystal in hand and said to Skyshattering Thunder, "You are truly weak. His Highness is not very pleased with you; however, compared to strength, His Highness values loyalty more. As long as you remain loyal to His Highness, he can make you a strong warrior in an instant. This Hero Power Crystal is His Highness’s investnt in you; it can increase your level by 30 instantly! Now, I’m giving you the Alliance’s S-class Wanted Order, which will temporarily grant you an additional 2000 Command Power and 4 tactical positions. As long as the fugitive is nearby, the Wanted Order will give a prompt. With the Wanted Order, if you kill the opponent’s hero, their hero will be resurrected in our prison, so you don’t have to hold back. You can choose any troops, resources, and followers here at will; your mission is to chase the fugitive to the ends of the earth and bring them back. Of course, those dwarven escapees can be killed on the spot... but you must bring back their heads..."
The Hero Power, a vile object rumored to absorb the Experience of heroes for one’s use; the S-class Wanted Order that grants 2000 points of Command Power; my choice of troops from all around!
In an instant, Skyshattering Thunder was so happy he almost fainted! Objectives that countless players struggled to achieve he could now obtain with ease! This was cheating! This was the Skyshattering Cheat! This was the benefit of clinging to royal power! That’s right, from now on, my nickna will be Skyshattering Cheat! Haha, wahahaha!
The Deputy Officer continued, "Of course, considering the capabilities used in this jailbreak, your opponent is very strong. We don’t expect you to capture all the fugitives, but it’s not important; you must find the mastermind! As long as the mastermind shows up, the Wanted Order will record the mastermind’s information, and at that ti, the entire Alliance will hunt him down!"
The mastermind? Who else could it be? Skyshattering Thunder imdiately exposed it on the spot: "The mastermind is none other than Da Fei!"
Of course, without evidence, such idle talk was ignored by NPCs. The Deputy Officer then asked, "Do you have any other questions?"
Skyshattering Thunder regained his composure, then sneered coldly. Da Fei, oh Da Fei, no matter how aweso you are, even if I’m still no match for you, you can’t possibly not show up, right? As long as you show up, you’re done for! The entire Alliance will be a place where you cannot stay! Haha, wahahaha!
In his excitent, Skyshattering Thunder pointed at the giant Magma Dragon guarding the door. "The Lord said I could pick any troops; may I choose this Magma Dragon?"
The Deputy Officer was taken aback, then looked towards the Prince. The Prince quietly waved his finger.
The Deputy Officer spoke solemnly, "You may! But rember, everything must be done with the mission’s completion as the priority. If you fail, you will have to face punishnt."
Skyshattering Thunder laughed heartily. A boss-level Magma Dragon, what hope does Da Fei have? Failure? Isn’t it just a mini-hero? Scared to death, right?
Skyshattering Thunder declared with conviction, "Please rest assured, Your Highness. Even if the criminals flee to the ends of the earth, I will capture them!"
— System Prompt: You have accepted the Prince’s tracking mission "Capture the Dungeon’s Escapees"! You have received mission items: S-class Wanted Order, Legion Return Scroll, Prison Carriage, Hero Power Crystal...

...
Taking a deep breath, Skyshattering Thunder sent a ssage to the friends watching the store, asking them to take good care of it. Then he began to select the personnel and resources for the chase.
Once everything was ready, Skyshattering Thunder said to the Deputy Officer, "My Lord, I am prepared!"
The Deputy Officer nodded and pointed at the Teleportation Gate, "This leads to a twisted space. Once you enter, you will randomly appear at so location in the space, which is very dangerous. Of course, if you cannot even overco this level of danger..."
Skyshattering Thunder quickly assured, "Please be at ease, your Lordship. Please rest assured, Your Highness. I shall fulfill the mission!" With that, he resolutely entered the Teleportation Gate.
