Chapter 468 He's the One in Trouble

Always unhurried, still with a smile on his face, he said, "I don't think it's possible. Qianli Zui initially took on these missions in Moonlit Night City. I think he was originally cooperating with the Ten Guild Alliance, pointing out the locations of his wanted targets so the Ten Guild Alliance could hunt them down. Kite, have you forgotten what you observed from the top of that church in Moonlit Night City?"

Kite immediately recalled that he had seen several small teams in action, their numbers clearly not intended for a team battle against their Eagle Regiment, but rather for hunting down single targets.

"That's right…" Kite nodded, thinking. "That's why we retreated then."

"And Qianli Zui was able to catch up to us so quickly because of the random teleportation function of his Chasing Wind Emblem," said Forever.

"But how did he accurately get our wanted mission?" someone asked, puzzled.

"I've already been inquiring about this, and I believe we'll have results soon," said Forever.

"Oh?" The others were unaware that Forever had taken this action.

Initially, Forever was clueless, until he contacted Ba Yi Xi San and asked in detail about the situation at the time. He became interested in the fact that Qianli Zui had accepted the wanted mission and therefore didn't kill Ba Yi Xi San himself, but asked someone else to do it. He felt that Qianli Zui accepting the wanted mission was the key.

In fact, everyone in Cloud City knew that Gu Fei's wanted license had the function of directly searching for names and accepting missions. Forever and the others were far away in a foreign land and hadn't heard of it yet. He was trying to find out by approaching people close to Qianli Zui, but he didn't know that he could just grab a player on the street in Cloud City and ask. He was taking a roundabout route, which was why he still didn't know the answer. A very important point was that Ying Qi had been poached by Yunteng, and the first and second-line employees had collectively resigned, causing a serious gap in communication between superiors and subordinates. Otherwise, it would have been easy to obtain this kind of information through the studio, and even temporary workers in Cloud City might have known. It was a pity that these people's voices couldn't be heard. The person in charge and the deputy in Cloud City had all run away, and Wu Ye was counting goods like a dog.

Forever briefly explained the situation to everyone. They were only talking about this now, which showed how urgent Gu Fei's pursuit was.

"So what do we do now?" Kite asked after listening to Forever's explanation.

"I think Qianli Zui is the one in trouble now," said Dou Qing Wan, expressing his opinion.

"Oh?" Forever and the others looked at him.

"We're in this area, and this building is all alone. Qianli Zui actually ran to the roof. If we surround this building, how can he leave?" Dou Qing Wan was saying when he suddenly realized, "Oh, he can just use a teleportation scroll… Sigh, that's useless."

Being able to react like that to the use of teleportation scrolls showed that the Eagle Regiment were all wealthy people who often used this item. If it were a group of ordinary players, they wouldn't have the strategic awareness to use teleportation scrolls to run around, and they would probably be happy to surround the building.

"Let's first hear what Shi Ba is doing up there!" Forever said, already opening the mercenary channel.

"Shi Ba, Shi Ba, answer if you hear me," Kite called out.

On the rooftop, Gu Fei looked at the wanted mission number on Shi Ba's body, feeling quite helpless. If he killed him, he would go to jail, come out with all his PK (player killing) points gone, and he didn't know when he would find him again. Ba Yi Xi San had already been killed once and lost two levels, so it was a pity to send this person directly to jail.

Thinking, he opened the mission list and looked at the wanted number. The person's name was Shi Ba Mo. Gu Fei was speechless, assuming that this kid was a fellow enthusiast of Sakura Tsukimiya and Huo Qiu.

Shi Ba Mo was entangled by the rope set by Gu Fei as soon as he came up, and almost pushed off the building by Gu Fei. Fortunately, he had a "Substitute Straw Man" skill, which allowed him to use a straw man as his substitute at any time, replacing himself to any position within the skill range. Although he was out of trouble, Qianli Zui was clearly the most powerful opponent he had ever faced, and Shi Ba Mo dared not be careless, staring at Gu Fei. Ba Yi Xi San had said that Qianli Zui's anti-stealth was indeed super sharp, but Shi Ba Mo still wanted to try, because he was a thief, and his stealth had a professional correction compared to Ba Yi Xi San's assassins, making it more difficult to be discovered.

But looking at the current terrain, Shi Ba Mo gave up this plan. The rooftop space was really not big, and Qianli Zui was a mage. Any two range spells could force him to show up. Shi Ba Mo couldn't float outside the rooftop.

"What should I do?" Shi Ba Mo was thinking about how to deal with Qianli Zui, feeling extremely distressed, when he suddenly heard Qianli Zui ask, "Which way is the mailbox?"

"What?" Shi Ba Mo was thinking seriously and didn't hear clearly.

"I said the mailbox, the mailbox for sending things. Which way is closer from here?" Gu Fei asked.

Shi Ba Mo was stunned, not knowing what relevant connection this question had with the current battle situation, and didn't say anything for a long time. Gu Fei asked again, and after thinking about it, Shi Ba Mo replied, "I don't talk to enemies."

Gu Fei was just asking casually, and he didn't have time to send things now. But the channels and private chats were full of shouts, and the guys far away in Moonlit Night City were asking him to send the scrolls quickly. Gu Fei usually only answered one word: "Busy."

"Which main city is this?" Gu Fei suddenly asked, knowing which main city it was, those guys could find a studio to get ready-made scrolls and come over.

As a result, that Shi Ba Mo still didn't speak, and Gu Fei had no choice but to run to the edge of the rooftop, looking around. He did find a passing player on the street below.

"Hey, you!!!" Gu Fei shouted, trying to attract people's attention, raising his head and summoning a lightning spell, striking in front of the person. The player was startled, looked up and saw someone on the rooftop, thinking he was being ambushed, and ran away without looking back.

"Was the method too strong?" Gu Fei muttered, and switched to the other side. This side was far away from the street, and it was impossible to hit with lightning. Gu Fei estimated that it was also unrealistic for his voice to spread over. So he had to turn back and wait patiently.

Shi Ba Mo watched Gu Fei swaying left and right, raising his dagger several times to attack, but every time he took a step, Qianli Zui seemed to glance back at him intentionally or unintentionally, and Shi Ba Mo had to hide his knife again, tossing and turning without finding a good opportunity. But the channel flashed with messages, and Kite was calling.

"What?" Shi Ba Mo asked.

"How are you doing up there?" Kite asked on behalf of the crowd.

Shi Ba Mo was speechless for a moment. This question was difficult to answer! Was he good or bad?

"Qianli Zui didn't attack you, did he?" Kite asked.

"Well, it's strange," said Shi Ba Mo.

"It's not strange. He didn't attack you because you have PK (player killing) points, and he has a wanted mission. He wants to kill us and make us lose levels, and doesn't want to send us to the dungeon," Kite said to Shi Ba Mo.

"Oh? That's how it is!" Shi Ba Mo suddenly realized, "Then I'll kill him. Wouldn't he dare to fight back?"

"That… he just doesn't want to send you to the dungeon, but he's not unable to," Kite reminded Shi Ba Mo not to go too far.

"This guy asked about the mailbox and inquired about where this is. I didn't tell him," Shi Ba Mo reported Qianli Zui's recent situation to everyone.

Forever frowned when he heard this, "He's trying to call for reinforcements! He can teleport directly with his emblem, but his other companions can't. He doesn't know what this place is called, so he can't tell his companions how to get here."

"That's how it is…" Forever thought for a moment and had a plan: "Those with PK (player killing) points, go wash your PK now. You still have teleportation scrolls, right? Go to any main city, wash it anywhere. That way, even if Qianli Zui chases after you, it's not scary to be killed by him. At worst, you'll go to jail. On the contrary, if they come over and someone helps Qianli Zui, it will be troublesome to be chased again. After all the PK points are washed away, they won't be able to know our whereabouts."

Everyone thought it made sense. Forever also gave Shi Ba Mo another message. After receiving it, Shi Ba Mo acted according to what the leader said and immediately took out the scroll to prepare to teleport.

Gu Fei had been watching Shi Ba Mo's movements while guarding the street and asking passersby about the main city. As soon as he saw him take out the scroll, he immediately knew that he wanted to slip away, and Gu Fei didn't hesitate. He instantly moved in front of Shi Ba Mo. Shi Ba Mo was shocked and quickly waved his dagger to attack. Gu Fei dodged to the side, and a sword had already slashed down.

Although it was going to jail, it was better than letting someone逍遥 freely outside.

As soon as the sword slashed down, Shi Ba Mo immediately knew that he couldn't withstand the damage. He had already seen Gu Fei's coherent continuous attack method that was even more coherent than a fighter. He didn't hesitate and directly used his Substitute Straw Man skill again. As Gu Fei's sword light passed, the straw man was split into two halves, and Shi Ba Mo was gone.

Gu Fei scanned behind him and saw nothing. He quickly stuck his head out and took a look. Shi Ba Mo had left the straw man directly on the rooftop. He had already moved outside and was falling downwards.

Gu Fei swung his sword and a rope set flew out, accurately hitting Shi Ba Mo's ankle. The other end of the rope set was a flying hook, which Gu Fei had hooked onto the edge of the rooftop. The length of the rope was what Gu Fei had calculated in advance.

Shi Ba Mo was falling downwards, estimating that at this height, he might still be able to keep a breath, but he didn't expect that his ankle would suddenly tighten. He had never expected that Gu Fei's rope could hit him in this situation. The Substitute Straw Man was also a skill with a very long cooldown, and he couldn't use it again at this time. Once the rope was set, Shi Ba Mo could no longer fall and rushed towards the building surface.
