Chapter 71 - 071 Easter Egg of Jiamucheng
Outside Jiamucheng.
[Crazy Man], [Bitter Melon Vine], [Silver], and several other Hidden Guards were carrying the pelts, fangs, and other spoils from beasts they had killed on West Mountain. They had just reached the main road when a group of players led by [Lonely Old Man] blocked their path.
"Looking for a PK?" [Crazy Man] threw the pelt from his shoulder to the ground, drew the blade from his waist, and asked, his brow furrowed.
He couldn’t help but be wary. During the players’ more reckless times, the Hidden Guards had imprisoned many, forcing a good number of them to delete their accounts and start over. Now that everyone’s levels had risen, it was only natural for some to seek revenge.
"Jiamucheng players are family; we don’t attack our own," [Lonely Old Man] said with a smirk. "Crazy Brother, we wanted to discuss something with you today."
"Speak," [Crazy Man] replied, not sheathing his blade.
"Before we talk, I’d like to ask you all a question." [Lonely Old Man] smiled faintly. "Are you planning to continue as Hidden Guards?"
"What are you getting at?" [Crazy Man] frowned.
"Crazy Brother," [Lonely Old Man] said, "the third batch of accounts has been released, and it’s a large one."
"Mm," [Crazy Man] nodded.
"Greg, the Divine Status holder from Fiore City, joined an organization called Thorn Star and learned the Stealth assassination skill. He’s already Level 28," [Lonely Old Man] continued.
"Wilderness Wolf of Yimucheng is Level 26 and currently the deputy leader of the Black Tiger Gang. His next step is to establish a foothold in Qian City. He doesn’t want to work for others anymore and is actively recruiting players on the forums to join the Black Tiger Gang, planning to oust the current Gang Leader and seize control. Barring any accidents, he’ll become the first player to establish their own gang," [Lumberjack No. 1] said.
