Chapter 534 - Surrounded (2/2)
“So you’re the one who’s been causing us trouble tonight?” asked the person after a moment’s silence.
Zhang Heng remained mum.
“Why won’t you speak? Are you dumb?” The person uttered a pitiful tut, “It seems we have got ourselves a little celebrity tonight! You have become very famous on the forum. Half the posts are about you now, and everyone is curious about your ident.i.ty. Why don’t you take off that mask and let me see your face?”
As the person talked to Zhang Heng, a man with a pair of shadowy wings landed on the roof. On the other side, the door at the stairway was also pushed open, and out came a burly man carrying a gigantic chainsaw. Three enemies now surrounded Zhang Heng from three directions, and he was only two steps away from the edge of the rooftop.
This was no coincidence. Arc of Light’s reacted faster than Zhang Heng imagined, extremely quick to catch where the problem was. Instead of asking everyone to change their pa.s.swords, they simply decided to let it be. Instead, they used the people in the Highlander as bait to surround Zhang Heng on the rooftop.
These three individuals looked different from the enemies Zhang Heng had met before. If the people he killed were Arc of Light’s elites, these three people were undoubtedly higher in rank. As expected, the guy who had spoken before spoke again, “I have good news and bad news; which one do you want to hear first?”
Before Zhang Heng could even reply, the man continued, “The bad news is that you crossed paths with us tonight. I advise you to not try anything stupid. There are not many in Arc of Light who are stronger than us. Our people have studied your characteristics, and they know how proficient you are at firearms. We, happen to be your kryptonite! Especially me. As long as I am here, you won’t ever dream of touching a gun again!”
The man expected to see Zhang Heng’s panicked and pale face, but he was left a little disappointed. From the start till the end, Zhang Heng’s expressions hadn’t budged an inch.
“But the good news is, Arc of Light had always been the most open-minded guild of the three major guilds. It is our tradition to value talents. I have to admit that your crazy performance tonight has been impressive. As a result, senior management wants to give you a chance to join our ranks as an Arc of Light member. If you agree to join us, we will no longer hold you responsible for the murders you committed. You can also keep the game items you took from us. How’s that sound? It’s the best offer you can get from us.”
However, he didn’t expect Zhang Heng to mount a reply when he was done with his little speech.
“So, Arc of Light sent the three of you to deal with me? Isn’t it a little careless of them to make such a decision?”.
