Chapter 19 A Poisonous Scheme

Gu Fei received the Dark Night Streaming Light Sword and Dark Night Spirit Robe amidst everyone's jeers. They couldn't stand Fireball showing off so much. If he kept acting so cool, he'd steal all the girls, leaving nothing for the rest of them! Although there wasn't a single woman in sight, these perverted guys lived to pick up girls; if there were no girls on the street, they had girls in their hearts!

The remaining members of the raiding party were now ignored. They wouldn't dare have any more crooked thoughts and hurriedly turned to flee for their lives. But as soon as they reached the end of the street, they began to scream in alarm. Gu Fei and the others could see people flying into the air from the raiders' ranks. Before long, the group was scattered, with a Fighter in the middle, swinging his fists and feet.

The raiders couldn't care less about sticking together at this point, each choosing a direction to escape. Bai Shi Jinglun didn't chase after them, but glanced towards the street and walked over.

"We're with you!" Gu Fei shouted, seeing that some people looked like they were about to shoot arrows.

Everyone lowered their bows and watched Bai Shi Jinglun run up to Gu Fei. "Where's Jian Nan You?" he asked.

"He got away," Gu Fei said helplessly.

"Hurry and chase him!" Bai Shi Jinglun urged.

"I don't know which way he went." As he spoke, Gu Fei looked towards the Eternal Bloom guild members in the flowerbeds, wondering if they had any information.

"Didn't see him!" they all said, shaking their heads. They had rushed here after receiving the final report from their own brothers, but they had been a little slower than Jian Nan You and hadn't run into him.

It was really difficult to find someone in such an unfamiliar place. Being able to bump into him the previous time was just luck. Now that Jian Nan You had disappeared again, Gu Fei felt helpless.

However, the brothers from Sakura Tsukishima and the others, who had cultivated the tenacious, never-say-die spirit of a leech when it came to picking up girls, showed no impatience at all. Gu Fei was already embarrassed to trouble them again, but they took the initiative to raise their arms and shout, "Brothers, let's go, let's go find him."

"How are you?" Gu Fei asked Bai Shi Jinglun, of course referring to him being sent flying to another street.

"I'm fine," Bai Shi Jinglun said. "It's just that the wall over there was a bit high." It was a little embarrassing to talk about. Bai Shi Jinglun wasn't hurt when he was knocked to the next street by the Whirlwind Slash. He wanted to quickly return and continue the chase, but the buildings separating the streets were different heights. This side was a single-story house, while the other side was a small阁楼 (gé lóu - attic).

No matter how skilled Bai Shi Jinglun was, he couldn't climb that high. Helpless, he had to take the regular route like an ordinary person. Jian Nan You getting away had at least blocked the remaining members of the raiding party, so it could be considered a small consolation.

While the two were talking, the Eternal Bloom members had already dispersed again to search for him, leaving only Fireball lingering beside Gu Fei. "Drunk Bro, Drunk Bro, where did you get those two pieces of equipment?"

Gu Fei naturally wouldn't hide anything. Actually, everyone was just casually searching, so he leisurely recounted the whole quest chain to Fireball.

"A quest chain..." Fireball sounded a little discouraged. The official announcement had stated that this kind of thing was composed of randomly assembled plot lines, and the probability of two identical quest chains occurring was extremely low. Fireball clearly couldn't rely on that.

So Gu Fei turned around and asked Fireball, "What's your PK value now?"

Fireball glanced at it and was shocked. "Eighteen!" What virtue or ability did Fireball possess to deserve such intense contact with PK value? He never dreamed that he would have such a close relationship with it. Gu Fei patted him on the shoulder. "Take care!"

"Drunk Bro, you're teasing me again!" Fireball wanted to cry.

He regretted showing off so much just now. Eighteen PK points meant that he would need 36 hours to wash them clean. A PK mission? Fireball wasn't a top expert, so he really didn't have the guts to do that. Asking guild brothers for help? Those perverted guys would be happy to kick him when he's down and add frost to snow, but that's about it. After some deliberation, Fireball could only pitifully look at Gu Fei.

Of course, Gu Fei wasn't so unkind. He patted the frightened Fireball and said, "I'll help you wash it clean after this is over."

Fireball was naturally very grateful and couldn't help but move closer to Gu Fei. "Then can I follow you for now?"

With Fireball's movement speed, following Gu Fei would really be a burden. But Gu Fei also knew that having 18 PK points was extremely dangerous, so letting Fireball follow him would keep him safe. Besides, there was still no news of Jian Nan You, so it was better to wait for news before hurrying on.

Just as he was thinking about news, a message came from Han Jia Gongzi on the mercenary channel: "Assassin, how's it going?"

"He got away," Gu Fei said regretfully.

Some time had passed since Gu Fei said he had found Jian Nan You. Jian Nan You hadn't revived at the warrior camp, so Han Jia Gongzi guessed that Gu Fei hadn't succeeded. But Gu Fei failing was even more surprising than him succeeding, so Han Jia Gongzi quickly asked, "What happened?"

"Another gang of raiders, I don't know if they were Jian Nan You's accomplices, suddenly intervened and messed things up." Gu Fei said regretfully.

"Oh... so what are you doing now?"

"Still looking," Gu Fei replied.

"Carry on with what you're doing!" Han Jia Gongzi ended the call. The others in the Gongzi Elite group naturally saw the conversation in the channel. Gu Fei actually failed to take down Jian Nan You, and everyone clicked their tongues in amazement.

Yu Tian Shenming ran back from his ambush point and looked at Han Jia Gongzi. "How long is this going to take?"

Han Jia Gongzi ignored him and just looked at the time, muttering, "You Ge..."

He had only said two words when a familiar figure walked out of a cluster of white light in the warrior camp.

"You Ge, you're finally back," Han Jia Gongzi changed his words to finish his sentence.

You Ge didn't answer, but quickly took out his notebook from his pocket and stood in place, writing something quickly.

The four of them seemed to know what he was doing, and no one stepped forward to disturb him. You Ge scribbled for a while and finally exhaled, put away his pen, took another look at the notebook, and smiled at the four of them. "I shouldn't have misremembered anything."

You Ge suddenly went offline to collect information, but the things he collected in reality couldn't be brought into the game in physical form. You Ge could only forcibly remember them in his mind first, and then quickly write them down in his information notebook as soon as he entered the game while the memory was still fresh.

"Did you find out everything?" Han Jia Gongzi asked.

"Yes!" You Ge nodded, clearly enjoying the moment. This was You Ge's special time. He held up the notebook in front of everyone and said, "Simple information on the top twenty guilds in Linshui City is all here!"

"Wow, you can remember the information of twenty guilds? You Ge, you're a genius!" Yu Tian Shenming affirmed You Ge's achievement.

"Not at all, not at all," You Ge said modestly.

"Tell me the names of the guild leaders," Han Jia Gongzi said.

You Ge recited them one by one, and Han Jia Gongzi quickly tested them one by one. After he was done, he cursed in frustration, "Not a single one has their friend invite switch turned on."

Everyone shrugged. Those who could build guilds were all extraordinary experts in the main city. They naturally couldn't turn on their friend invite switch casually, or they would be waiting for countless mediocre men and women to add them as friends and shout, "Brother, take me with you! Brother, give me some money!"

"Go to the mailbox!" Han Jia Gongzi waved his hand.

"What are you planning..." When Han Jia Gongzi said he needed this information, everyone didn't know his intention. This kind of information could be obtained by simply grabbing someone on the street and asking, but the amount of information Han Jia Gongzi needed was too large. Ordinary players could basically only say a few things about the three or two largest guilds. Who would remember twenty guilds' worth of information?

Jian Gui suggested going to the guild hall to simply copy it down. This method was accurate, but it would take time to go to the guild hall. You Ge simply went offline to collect it from the forum and other places. After all, the warrior camp was a safe offline zone, so it was very convenient to come and go.

In such a short time, You Ge had brought back the information of twenty guilds, and his efficiency was undoubtedly high. Now that Han Jia Gongzi couldn't add these guild leaders as friends and said he was going to the mailbox, everyone guessed that he had something to negotiate with these twenty people.

Arriving at the mailbox, Han Jia Gongzi quickly completed a letter with a flourish of his pen and handed it to someone beside him, saying, "Copy this!"

The four of them crowded around to look. After reading it, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, isn't that too vicious! Are you trying to leave anyone alive!"

The content of the letter was to tell these twenty guilds that the priest in Jian Nan You's small group currently possessed "resurrection" skills. More importantly, Han Jia Gongzi also told them that the Qingxia Guild was already starting to snatch this piece of equipment.

If the first piece of information wasn't seductive enough, the second piece of information hit the guilds' weak spot.

This kind of top-quality item would be an asset to any guild with the strength to acquire it. Even if some guilds didn't have the base desire to steal other people's equipment, they would inevitably come out to obstruct it, knowing that a competitor was making a move, based on the idea of not letting the competitor become stronger. In the end, the focus would naturally still be on this staff snatching.

"You're trying to wipe out all the guilds in Linshui City!" Everyone exclaimed at Han Jia Gongzi's grand plan.

"I don't know what will happen to the guilds, but if Jian Nan You and his group still don't die after this, then it's too unfair!" Han Jia Gongzi calmly replied, and finally urged everyone, "Copy it all, copy a few more copies. I want to send this message to the core members of each guild in addition to the guild leader."

After all, letters were not like text messages, and few people would immediately run to the mailbox to view them when they received a system notification that there was a letter. Han Jia Gongzi had long anticipated this, so he asked You Ge to get more information about the guilds. If there were only three or two guilds, it might not cause anything to happen. Now that there were as many as twenty guilds, with dozens of core leaders receiving the same letter, Han Jia Gongzi didn't believe that there wouldn't be someone who happened to be near the mailbox and came to take a look.

Moreover, he enclosed a gold coin in each letter. The system would also give a notification for this item-attached mailing, but it would only state that there was a gold coin in the letter and would not report the specific amount.

Han Jia Gongzi believed that these gold coin letters would better pique many people's curiosity.
