Chapter 152 - So Close to Disbandnt
The ladies’ sowhat muffled screams and exclamations reached Gu Fei’s ears as he exited the forest from the other side. The light from flas flashed periodically behind him, and he could sohow imagine the waves of heat radiating from them.
“He he he! We hunted five more,” Fireball proudly sent this crude, short ssage to Gu Fei.
Gu Fei smiled wryly, “How very tasteless!” Lifting his head to determine his direction, he bounded toward one of the locations Fireball had just provided him.
It was at this mont in ti that July had sent out a ssage on the guild channel, “The enemies in the forest are very loathso and abhorrent. Everyone, watch your steps. They are using the traps a level 40 Archer will obtain when one advance his or her job class to a Hunter.”
As this ssage was sent out, Svelte Dancer who had been quiet all this ti eagerly asked, “Where are they?! I’ll co over right now!” All of Forever in Flowers’ fifty mbers were present for today’s PvP match. So far, there were five deaths on their end – one by Gu Fei and the other four by Svelte Dancer. Those five casualties were the five players who had teased Svelte Dancer from the start. She had not gotten one kill point ever since then, so a burning anger steadily built up within her. When July gave her the direction, Svelte Dancer hurriedly asked, “And Miles? Where’s he?”
“Do I have to co, too?” Gu Fei asked.
“No! I alone will do,” Svelte Dancer quickly rejected his offer.
“I knew you would say that,” Gu Fei sighed. She’s so competitive. Since I’ve gotten a huge amount of information from Fireball, should I share it with her? With this thought in mind, he sent out a ssage to her, “Found a lot of enemies. Do you wanna join ?”
“A lot? How many?” Svelte Dancer asked, skeptical.
“Short of thirty, I think?” Gu Fei sincerely replied.
“Tsk! Who are you trying to fool! I would find them long ago if there really were thirty of them gathered together,” Svelte Dancer derided.
Gu Fei had no words to say. Since it was not convenient for him to reveal how he had gotten his hands on this information, he could only sigh and say, “I’ll take them myself, then.”
“Hmph! Go do it yourself!” Svelte Dancer snubbed.
Gu Fei shook his head, “You better not regret it!”
“Nagger!” Svelte Dancer countered.
“It’s really hard to be a good person!” Gu Fei sighed inwardly. The information Fireball had given him did not just cover the n’s hiding places, it also included routes for him to sneak attack the n; truly, Fireball had thoroughly betrayed his brothers.
Upon arriving at his first small hill, Gu Fei circled his way to the back of it and looked up. Five players were craning their necks to peek at sothing before them as they lay sprawled on the hilltop. Gu Fei imdiately recalled how Fireball had crawled into the tall grass to hide from the higher level monsters when he brought the latter to grind for levels for the first ti; it looked exactly like what these players were doing! Truly, birds of the sa feather flocked together. Thinking of this, he clambered up the hill and reached the enemies’ backs very shortly, “Hey!”
“What?” The five actually did not turn around.
Gu Fei irately stabbed his Moonlit Nightfalls into the ground and said, “Your sense of awareness is far too low!”
“Speak if you’ve got sothing to say. Otherwise, scram!” They were still staring intently ahead and were very much unwilling to turn around.
Gu Fei could only stab Moonlit Nightfalls into the person on the extre left.
“Stop ssing around!” The person dismissively waved him off without looking back, but he did so when he saw that his HP had dropped quite a lot. “You’re mad! What are you stabbing so heavily for?!” Properly looking at Gu Fei, the player was montarily stunned, “Who are you?”
The other four n finally turned around when they heard their companion ask this question, before freezing and asking in unison as well, “Who are you?!”
“Are you a new recruit? When did you join? I haven’t seen you before... Oh, what’s your na?” soone asked him a series of questions.
Gu Fei did not know how to answer all his questions and simply said, “I’m from Athyst Rebirth.”
“Athyst Rebirth!” The five widened their eyes. “Are you a woman?” They looked at Gu Fei from different angles to see if he had any feminine features on certain parts of his body, yet his voice alone had already convinced them that he was truly a male. This was when the five finally realized sothing: There was a man in Athyst Rebirth.
“Has Athyst Rebirth begun accepting male players?!” They were very excited. “The f*ck we’re doing here for then?! Let’s disband the guild and join Athyst Rebirth! Quickly tell Moony!” They spoke among themselves, completely forgetting about Gu Fei.
“Ahem...” Gu Fei had no wish to be ignored.
Everyone smilingly regarded him, “We’ll all be brothers next ti.”
Gu Fei crashed right there and then. He had only said four verbal lines to these five from start to finish, yet Forever in Flowers Guild was already on the verge of disbanding.
Over by Forever in Flowers’ guild channel, this atomic-bomb-like information was thrown out. “Moony! Did you know that Athyst Rebirth has begun accepting male players?”
“Eh?! Who said that?!” The speed of this reply from Guild Leader Sakurazaka1 Moony was very fast. Truly, he was far too wise regarding sexual matters for his age that he even ca up with the ‘Hunting Babes with Trap’ thod. But despite his focus mostly being on chasing skirts, Sakurazaka Moony’s level was not low. In fact, he was the level 40 Hunter that was ranked eighteenth on the Archer leaderboard.
“The guy right next to us! He is from Athyst Rebirth!” soone among the five n answered.
“Is that so?!” Sakurazaka Moony exclaid in astonishnt, adding, “F*ck! Let’s disband the guild and join them, then!”
“All hail, Moony!” they praised.
At the sa ti, the rest of Forever in Flowers’ players hiding in various spots in the map had also seen the big news posted on the guild channel. They were bombarding one another with questions to inquire more details about what was just posted. In the end, they were all saying in unison, “Disband! Disband this guild imdiately!”
anwhile, Fireball and his fellow friends, who knew the truth of the matter, felt helpless upon seeing the chaos on the guild channel. They tried saying a few words, yet those were quickly buried by the other mbers’ incessant ssages. Furthermore, the six were still busy dealing with the entire Athyst Rebirth Guild that they could really not spare a mont to deal with this problem. Fireball hurriedly sent Gu Fei a ssage, “Drunk bro, I only asked you to slay them. What did you do to get the whole guild to disband?”
Gu Fei did not know how this had happened as well. Since he could not see the chaos on the Forever in Flowers’ guild channel, he was unaware that such a huge matter had been happening in these few minutes. Currently, he was blankly staring at the five n gleefully chatting before him, trying to decide whether to slay them now or wait for a bit more. “Screw that! I don’t know anything, either!” was Gu Fei’s reply to Fireball.
Knowing that a misunderstanding must have occurred sowhere, Fireball quickly sent Sakurazaka Moony a ssage, “Moony, don’t be so hasty. I know that guy from Athyst Rebirth and he got in by accident. Athyst Rebirth isn’t accepting any male players at all.”
“How did that happen?” Sakurazaka Moony bewilderedly fired back.
“I don’t have the ti to explain everything in detail right now; just know that there’s no way we can join Athyst Rebirth,” Fireball replied.
Sakurazaka Moony imdiately retracted his recent announcent by explaining that the information he had received was false, but his words were also very easily drowned on the guild channel by the mbers’ excited chattering about the matter. In his anger, Sakurazaka Moony imdiately changed the guild channel’s setting and made it so that only the guild leader could send out a ssage. With that done, he unhurriedly cleared out the guild channel’s chat logs and calmly sent out a ssage: “Upon closer inspection, the matter of Athyst Rebirth accepting male players was proven to be untrue.”
Since they could no longer send out ssages on the guild channel, all resorted to privately ssaging the guild leader to the point of causing Sakurazaka Moony’s personal inbox to incessantly ring with notifications. With over fifty different ssages stuffed in his inbox that continued to increase by the second, Sakurazaka Moony had no choice but to revert the guild channel to how it was and say, “Chat here, but do it one at a ti. Maintain a clean channel.”
The ones who understood the matter were Fireball’s group and the five n beside Gu Fei – the rumor started from them, after all – so Sakurazaka Moony called out to the five n by na and asked for a proper explanation.
“What we said is true. The guy is standing beside us now,” the five insisted.
“What did he say?”
“That he’s from Athyst Rebirth.”
“And? Did he say that Athyst Rebirth is accepting male players now?” Sakurazaka Moony inquired further.
Not one of them responded to this question this ti, as Gu Fei had obviously not said anything about that.
“Next ti, clear up everything first before assuming anything.” Sakurazaka Moony was extrely angry. Disbanding the guild was no big deal, but giving everyone false hope was a grave sin, especially since Sakurazaka Moony was the most delighted when he heard the news.
The five n were completely crestfallen as they looked at Gu Fei once more.
“Shall we begin now?” Gu Fei asked as he perceived the change in everyone’s attitude.
“Begin? What are we beginning?” They dispiritedly asked.
“The guild match, of course!” Gu Fei did not know whether to laugh or cry at their lifeless reaction.
“What’s there to gain by pitting ourselves against you? Go and play by yourself.” They were currently irate, so they did not regard Gu Fei seriously. This was even more so when they saw on their Appraisal that Gu Fei was only a level 39 Mage.
“Take this!” Gu Fei no longer spared another word on this matter. A PvP match was all about doing one’s best, after all. He was already showing the five n rcy by not launching a sneak attack on them when he had the chance earlier. It would be far too unreasonable for him to refrain from attacking them simply because they did not wish to take him on, right?
Gu Fei swung his sword downward toward a target, yet the person evaded it by tumbling backward while shouting, “Oi, dude! You really plan to attack us?!”
“Of course,” Gu Fei said matter-of-factly as he raised his sword to strike once more. That slash just then was not really an attack, but more of a warning to them that he was serious about wanting to PvP.
“Kill, kill, kill!” The five n chorused as they finally acted.
Naturally, Gu Fei beca serious as well and quickly eliminated one of them with a few sword slashes. Seeing one of them die before they could complete their preparations, one of the remaining four n exclaid in shock, “F*ck! He’s the real deal!”
As these words left the person’s mouth, Gu Fei thrusted his sword toward him. Following this, Gu Fei executed his Gu Family’s sword style, Zhao San Mu Si, as he chanted the words for Twin Incineration. Moonlit Nightfalls’ blade glowed fiery red as it struck the four players, insta-killing the two n through that slash with spell and disposing of the other two n through that slash with spell and another stab....
Not a tinge of suspense existed in this sequence. While an ordinary player could perhaps dodge an average Mage’s Twin Incineration, Gu Fei’s amalgamation of the spell to his spectacular swordsmanship would certainly obliterate any average player. Only death awaited anyone who would receive this particular attack of Gu Fei, so he unsurprisingly cleaned up the five n in the blink of an eye.
“You go, Drunk bro!” Fireball creepily sent this short ssage over.
