Chapter 152 Blackwater's Provocation

After the Blackwater Guild members blocked Aqua Rose’s path, the people on the street turned their heads to look.

Aside from Aqua Rose being a dazzling beauty, her level of 41 alone awed most of the people present. Add to that the aggressive Blackwater Guild, and it was hard not to attract attention.

"So that's Zui Xiao Ke of the Blackwater Guild." Leng Qiu looked at the tall man in silver armor at the head, his eyes narrowed.

Zui Xiao Ke (Drunken Smile) was one of the recently rising experts in the Blackwater Guild.

Although he didn't have many achievements, he had single-handedly eliminated Zi Tong and more than a dozen other experts from the Galaxy Alliance, causing the Galaxy Alliance to suffer a great loss. He was already ranked in the top thousand on the Wind and Cloud Expert List, and it was obvious that Zui Xiao Ke hadn't used his full strength in the previous battle.

Because of this incident, their Tianji Pavilion thoroughly investigated. Leng Qiu clearly remembered Yuan Tiexin saying that if they encountered Zui Xiao Ke in the wild, it was best to avoid conflict if possible.

Now, looking closely at Zui Xiao Ke, Leng Qiu found that Zui Xiao Ke did bring him some pressure. Level 40, equipped with excellent Dark-Gold equipment, and carrying a snow-white, blood-veined spear, he looked like a battlefield general, intimidating to behold. But with his strength, he shouldn't need to avoid him. He really didn't understand why Yuan Tiexin said that.

Just as Leng Qiu was carefully observing Zui Xiao Ke, Zui Xiao Ke seemed to notice Leng Qiu's gaze, but he glanced at Leng Qiu out of the corner of his eye, a hint of disdain on his lips. He didn't bother with Leng Qiu, focusing almost all of his attention on Aqua Rose in front of him.

"That's right, what do you want with me?" Aqua Rose glanced at Zui Xiao Ke and the others, nodding.

"Since that's right, then it's settled. We'll offer 150 gold for all the Advanced Mana Armor Plates you have." Zui Xiao Ke said in a commanding tone after confirming the person, "Of course, you can choose not to sell, but then I can't guarantee you'll leave White River City alive."

As Zui Xiao Ke spoke, more than a dozen level 39 players surrounded him, each with a cold smile on their faces.

Zui Xiao Ke's voice wasn't soft, and almost all the players paying attention to Zui Xiao Ke heard him clearly, immediately causing dissatisfaction among many players.

"She clearly spent 600 gold to buy three of them, and he wants all of them for 150 gold. The Blackwater Guild is too bullying!"

"Is the Blackwater Guild crazy? They actually dare to engage in forced buying and selling in broad daylight. Are they really not afraid of being locked up?"

"Free players really can't stand out too much. It seems this beauty has to give in. The Blackwater Guild has a large force. I heard that even Bai Qingxue, the president of Shishenzhi She (Ouroboros), dared to assassinate someone on the street, let alone free players like us."

Many people began to sympathize with Aqua Rose. Everyone understood at this moment that the Blackwater Guild was demonstrating in White River City, not just targeting Aqua Rose. Aqua Rose was just chosen as the best demonstration object.

Now that the Blackwater Guild and the Zero Wing Guild were in full-scale war, and they suddenly announced that they would hold a large auction four days later, this allowed the Zero Wing Guild to emerge from its low point. The Blackwater Guild naturally had to suppress them.

And free players like Aqua Rose who bought items from the Candlelight Trading Firm but had no strength were undoubtedly the best targets. Whether Aqua Rose主动交出物品 (zhudong jiaochu wupin - voluntarily handed over the items) or they抢过来 (qiang guolai - snatched them), it was telling everyone that if you dared to buy things from the Candlelight Trading Firm, you would bear the consequences!

"You'll attack if I don't give them to you?" Aqua Rose's beautiful eyes narrowed, and she smiled slightly, "Then I want to see if the Blackwater Guild has the ability to do so."

"You're courting death!" A level 39 black-clothed assassin suddenly appeared behind Aqua Rose, a trace of bloodthirsty red light in his eyes, and he swung his dagger fiercely, stabbing towards Aqua Rose's後腦勺 (hounao shao - the back of the head), giving her no chance to counterattack or dodge.

"How despicable!" Mu Yun cursed inwardly.

While Zui Xiao Ke was talking, he actually let an assassin expert sneak behind her, waiting for her to refuse before delivering a fatal blow. This method was really contemptible.

Just when everyone thought it was over, they suddenly discovered that the level 39 assassin expert had passed through Aqua Rose's body, not attacking her at all, but only hitting an afterimage.

"Such a fast reaction!" Leng Qiu's eyes widened, unable to believe that Aqua Rose's reaction speed was so fast. Even he would be finished if he was careless against such a sneak attack, but Aqua Rose seemed to be prepared, using Flash to dodge easily.

However, the people from the Blackwater Guild weren't ordinary players, each of them was an expert. The assassin immediately turned towards the direction Aqua Rose had flashed, and used Shadow Step the moment he found her.

With a whoosh, he reappeared behind Aqua Rose, and with a reverse of his dagger, he executed a Backstab, his technique so nimble that many guild experts on the street secretly sighed in admiration.

Bang!

An ice wall appeared behind Aqua Rose at some point. In the time it took for the dagger to shatter the ice wall, Aqua Rose leaned her body forward slightly, dodging the Backstab incredulously. Then, she turned around, a spell already written and chanted in her hand, and pointed a finger at the attacking assassin.

Instantly, a cyan lightning bolt flashed from Aqua Rose's jade finger, directly bombarding the assassin.

However, that assassin wasn't a fool either, understanding the power of this lightning bolt, he immediately used the Vanish skill, using the 1.3 seconds of temporary invincibility to resist it.

"It seems this little妞 (niu - girl) is quite strong, Zidan (Bullet), you go help him. Kill that little妞 (niu - girl), and afterwards I'll tell老大 (laoda - boss), and I can apply for you to have the qualifications to train at headquarters." Zui Xiao Ke saw that Aqua Rose's strength wasn't simple, and then said to the swordsman next to him.

"Thank you,团长 (tuanzhang - commander), leave it to me!" The swordsman named Zidan (Bullet) licked his lips and rushed towards Aqua Rose with a Gale Step.

An expert assassin and an expert swordsman, attacking together, even Mu Yun felt a headache.

Mu Yun could see that whether it was the assassin who attacked earlier or the current swordsman, their combat level was among the top in their Hundred Flowers Palace. If they coordinated well, she could be killed if she wasn't careful.

Just as the swordsman named Zidan (Bullet) arrived in front of Aqua Rose, Aqua Rose suddenly turned around and pointed a finger at the swordsman Zidan (Bullet) again.

With a whoosh, another cyan lightning bolt flew out, and its speed was even faster than before, and its power was even greater.

In addition, three ice walls appeared next to the swordsman Zidan (Bullet) at some point, making it impossible for him to move left or right, and he could only resist head-on.

Bang!

The swordsman Zidan (Bullet) quickly used the Parry skill to resist, but the moment he resisted, his whole person crashed through the ice wall like a ball, flying more than twenty yards away. The huge power made everyone feel a chill in their hearts.

"Such skilled Dual Incantation!" Leng Qiu was slightly surprised to see Aqua Rose's performance.

"No wonder she dared to challenge us, she really has some skills. Yan Gui (Smoker), you go too, I want to see how long she can last." Zui Xiao Ke said coldly.

"Yes!" A tall and sturdy berserker with dark skin came out, and without the slightest hesitation, he charged and slashed at the exhausted Aqua Rose.

Just as this level 39 berserker was about to chop at Aqua Rose, a skeleton claw, nearly three meters high, suddenly emerged from beside the berserker, silently, and grabbed the berserker. Then, the skeleton claw exerted force, and with a crack, the berserker was directly reduced to ashes.

"This..."

Instantly, everyone was stunned, and no one could understand what was going on. That was a level 39 berserker!

Even Leng Qiu and Mu Yun were shocked.

They couldn't believe that such an expert could be killed in one move.

"This is the territory of our Zero Wing Guild. It's too disrespectful to our Zero Wing Guild for the Blackwater Guild to take action here." At this moment, a crisp voice echoed throughout the street.

This made everyone turn their heads to look at the speaker.

Suddenly, everyone was speechless.

Because the speaker was none other than the Vice President of the Zero Wing Guild, Aqua Rose.
