Chapter 111 Drawing circles
Nothing else unusual happened on the way.
The bandits who had long lived by this road naturally understood who they could rob and who they could not.
Lin Bai and Jiang Qingqin, a handsome man and beautiful woman, rode at the head of the group. Along with the Beggar Gang’s carriage convoy displaying its banner, they presented such an organized spectacle that no bandit would be foolish enough to attempt a robbery.
During their journey, they camped in the forest overnight, allowing the players to log off and rest.
Lin Bai taught the Beggar Gang’s core members a few Dragonfall Palm techniques as a reward for securing the advertisement. This was something he had initially promised, so he naturally fulfilled it. He wanted to be an NPC who kept his word, making every Beggar Gang disciple feel that following him offered a bright future.
When they set off again the next day, Lin Bai, from the conversations among the Beggar Gang disciples, learned about everything that had happened on the forum. He even heard about the rallying cry: "The game can be lost, Lin Bai must die."
At that moment, Lin Bai was bewildered for quite a while.
What the hell was going on? Didn’t I just guide the Beggar Gang disciples to get rich? How on earth did I offend you all? Did I have it easy? Alone in a strange world, struggling to survive, caught between unfamiliar natives and players who seemed to thrive on chaos... I worked so hard to establish a foundation, so how did I end up annoying you all? This hatred is baffling! Jealousy! That bunch is just jealous—jealous I didn’t include them in whatever they think I’m playing... Players are truly unreasonable!
Lin Bai grumbled inwardly, not taking the players’ declaration of war to heart.
If I can take over Jiamucheng, I can take over Qian City. If I can take over Qian City, I can take over Taiyi Country. Who will have the last laugh is still uncertain! If players could actually stick together, they wouldn’t be called players anymore.
