Chapter 967: Mantis Stalks the Cicada
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the saying goes, a thief is not concerned about a fellow thief but an opportunist that hides in the shadows. Facing so many unknown enemies, the mbers from Quan Zhen Sect had a sinking feeling.
Wang Yu harrumphed loudly, “Whoever is scared just stay here. I will go outside for a stroll.”
“F*ck, who are you saying is scared! Don’t you dare stop . I will go and settle it once and for all!”
Everyone was quickly riled up upon hearing Wang Yu’s provocation. Although they were all clamoring to rush out and fight, in actual fact it was just all tough talk.
Fearless smiled towards the crowd and said, “Guys, let’s not be impulsive here. Rolling Mario, is your team still around these days?”
“It has already long been disbanded, what business do you have with them? Are we not enough to help you?” Rolling Mario retorted.
Quan Zhen Sect was now the main target of public criticism. There were solely short of manpower as they only had about a dozen mbers in the guild.
“Rest assured, I won’t ask for your help without proper compensation!” Fearless grinned towards Rolling Mario and replied, “Do you want the cape fragnts?”
“Nonsense, who wouldn’t want the fragnts? When was it our turn to get those fragnts?”
Rolling Mario’s tone tinged with dissatisfaction. It seed like it was a common place that the big guilds in each city would monopolise most of the available resources. Therefore, the smaller guilds could only contend for the scraps. This inequality only further fueled their unhappiness towards the big guilds.
“That’s good. I will tell you the thod to complete the quest so that you can lead your team to do it. However, the number of fragnts that you can get is ultimately up to your own ability,” Fearless explained.
“This... You can’t possibly want to use us as bait.” Rolling Mario was not naive and he saw through Fearless’s intentions.
Fearless did not attempt to hide it and simply flashed a smile, “There is an inherent risk associated with every reward... I am telling you, these cape fragnts are highly in demand these days as there is only three hundred fifty pieces available daily..”
“Three hundred fifty pieces...”
Rolling Mario was shocked at the revelation, “So few?”
“Of course, otherwise why would we have ran all the way here.” Fearless continued, “So what’s your decision? Are you going to do it?””This...”
Rolling Mario still had so reservations.
Rolling Mario was also an astute individual. He was one that would carefully weigh the pros and cons of every decision he made. If this was just a normal quest, he definitely would not have risked his team to be bait over a few Cape fragnts. However, he was in a dilemma because he knew that these fragnts were a scarce commodity so it could likely fetch an astronomical price.
As the saying goes, this was indeed a rare commodity worth hoarding.
Why were antique paintings worth so much money? The reason is due to the fact there are so few copies of it.
had almost a few hundred million players with each city containing three to four hundred thousand players. Such a large player base had only access to 350 pieces of cape fragnts each day.
“Right, fifty fragnts are needed to make a cape,” Fearless continued enticing Rolling Mario.
“Good! I agree to your offer!”
The final sentence finally convinced Rolling Mario of the rits of Fearless’s offer.
Since fifty fragnts were needed to make a cape, each city could at most procure twenty-one capes throughout the whole event.
The attributes for the cape was clear for all to see as it was posted on the official website. The Obsidian grade for this cape also granted [Flight] to wearer. This was simply a God-grade equipnt. Thus, when this event was over, the price of the cape would inevitably be shot up.
“I am calling my n.” Rolling Mario quickly pulled out the friend list and notified Mo Xiaobei and the others about the new developnt.
Rolling Mario eyed Fearless strangely and asked, “Do you want to tell them the thod directly?”
“Hmph!” Fearless sneered coldly as he replied, “Do you think my Quan Zhen Sect would cowered after being ambushed once?”
“No...”
Rolling Mario finally connected the dots together.
These bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were a stubborn bunch. If others offered a high price for the thod to farm fragnts, they still might not be willing to sell it.
However, if one were to play gas and tricks with them, they definitely would not be happy to play along.
This group was ready and willing to fight to the death with any opponent who dared to provoke them.
How could any other guild match up to Termination Manor? Even they could not handle the Quan Zhen Sect.
It wasn’t as though the Quan Zhen Sect hadn’t experience anything like that before. In the past, they even dared to go against the number one guild in the world with just five to six of them. Moreover, a new and stronger mber joined them now.
If others pushed the Quan Zhen Sect into a corner, they would not have any qualms about posting the thod on the online forums. This was their true way of playing the ga, free and unrestrained.
Fearless also had his other thoughts on this matter.
Firstly, Rolling Mario could be considered one of Quan Zhen Sect’s trusted friends therefore Fearless was more than willing to share things with him.
Next, Rolling Mario’s team also only consisted of a few mbers. There were over three hundred main cities in the ga. Giving Rolling Mario a share of the pie would not diminish their own interest.
In contrast, this was different in dealing with a big guild. If Wang Yu were to give them an inch, they would definitely not hesitate to take a foot. They might even coerce the Quan Zhen Sect mbers to hand over their own fragnts.
Lastly, since Rolling Mario and his team were going to be bait, they definitely needed to be compensated with so benefits.
Mo Xiaobei was also in a state of confusion after receiving news about the new developnts. Not before long, Rolling Mario’s acquaintances gathered in his store.
“Old Mario, you said you have a thod to farm the fragnts?” Mo Xiaobei raised the pressing issue up imdiately.
“En!” Rolling Mario pointed towards Fearless and replied, “To be exact, it is them who have it.”
“Huh? So it’s you guys... I haven’t seen you around for a while now. It actually turned out you guys were the mysterious team in all the rumours. I should have guessed it long ago.”
Mo Xiaobei saw that Fearless and the rest had much warr smiles as compared to before. Looks like Lucifer was not entirely useless since his actions brought the two guilds closer to each other.
“Haha! It’s nothing much!” Fearless attempted to play down his achievents.
“Xiaobei ah, Brother Fearless is not sharing the thod to farm fragnts for free. He has sothing for us to do,” Rolling Mario explained as he quickly looked over to Mo Xiaobei to see his reaction.
After saying that, he even looked cautiously at Mo Xiaobei.
After all, being bait for others was anything but fun. Nobody would be happy if they were forced to do it.
“This...” Mo Xiaobei replied after so thought, “Isn’t this just a favor? You sound like we are sending ourselves to our deaths. We are all friends after all, even if Fearless didn’t offer the thod to ask who should still have helped him.”
