295 Chapter 295 - Quick Mission Completion (1/2)
Gu Fei was relaxing in a system-operated tavern when he received Young Master Han's message. He immediately informed Svelte Dancer of this and the two proceeded to activate their Windchaser's Emblem, disappearing from the tavern in a flash of white light. Those players who had noticed that the two's coordinates had not changed for the longest time hurried over to the tavern to catch either of them. Unfortunately, they did not manage to reach the place in time. When the coordinates refreshed again, these bounty hunters saw that the two's position had finally changed. The experienced players among them quickly deduced, ”D*mn! They have Windchaser's Emblem as well!”
A few bounty hunters were still in the Bounty Assignment Hall when Svelte Dancer and Gu Fei teleported over, but their number was no longer a threat for the two fighting experts. Swiftly handing in their respective missions and picking up another, Gu Fei's PK value was now down to 12 points, while Svelte Dancer was down to 6 points.
Plenty of these players were no longer eager to chase after the two, since they felt that they were just wasting their time with them. Some of them were even hoping for the two to quickly clear off their PK value so that they could pick up new 'Bounty Mission'.
Gu Fei and Svelte Dancer left to hunt their respective targets, while Young Master Han and the rest stayed right outside the Bounty Assignment Hall.
”There shan't be any more issues, right?” Having squatted for so long, Brother Assist finally stood up and was now massaging his numb thighs.
”Mmm…” Young Master Han gave a vague affirmation. He then stared straight ahead in a way that suggested that he was waiting for someone or something.
”What else could there be?” the others asked Young Master Han this upon seeing the far-off look on his face.
Young Master Han inclined his head to a certain direction. Looking in the indicated direction, they saw Dusky Cloud with a horde of men rushing over. Without a word, these new arrivals charged inside the Bounty Assignment Hall. Plenty of curse words were soon heard echoing from within the hall. In no time at all, several players emerged from the hall with their hands on their heads and eyes filled with fear.
Dusky Cloud and his compatriots came out of the Bounty Assignment Hall after. His steely gaze swept through the area, and when Dusky Cloud spotted several players dazedly standing by the side, he immediately pointed at them, ”What are you guys doing here?”
”Mi – Mission…” these players stuttered and then froze up, clearly unsure of how they had offended such a large horde of men.
”Mission, my *ss! No 'Bounty Mission' for you lot! Scram!” Dusky Cloud chased away all these players. Only then did his gaze shift to the five men squatting by a wall and made his way over to them. ”How's everything? Is Miles bro alright?” Dusky Cloud asked with worry apparent in his voice.
”He's fine!” Brother Assist answered for everyone, saying, ”His PK value will be cleared off soon!”
”Why didn't you inform us about this and let us intervene?!” Dusky Cloud asked.
The Ten Guild Alliance naturally had men that were clearing off their PK value through the 'Bounty Mission' as well. In fact, some of them were among those that were chasing after Gu Fei. Since the Ten Guild Alliance had over four thousand men, a few of them were bound to not know of who Gu Fei was.
It was only when a Ten Guild Alliance member who knew of Gu Fei's appearance had come face to face with him that the 'Super Mario' who had taken the city by storm was found out to actually be Thousand Miles Drunk. Hurrying to inform the Ten Guild Alliance of the matter, Dusky Cloud hastily rallied his force to aid Gu Fei.
The Ten Guild Alliance was basically Yueye City's tyrant organization. Dusky Cloud's men quickly gained control of the Bounty Assignment Hall and they turned away any players, telling them to return at a later time. When would that 'later time' be? It would of course be once Gu Fei cleared off all his PK value.
Gu Fei and Svelte Dancer did not know of this at first; when Gu Fei disposed of his latest target and teleported himself to the Bounty Assignment Hall, he was taken aback by its strangely empty hallways. Exiting the hall to chase after his target, he saw a pack of players standing right outside.
Gu Fei's heart leaped; why did his fellow mercenaries not inform him of this bunch of players blocking the way out? Did they think everything was over and ran off to do their things, instead?
As he was about to charge forward and fight the players, someone from the pack suddenly shouted, ”Miles bro is back!”
Everyone turned to look. Dusky Cloud emerged from this crowd and approached Gu Fei, grasping his hand warmly, ”Miles bro, it's been tough on you.”
”Ah… Not really,” Gu Fei replied, feeling surprised.
”These m*th*rf*ck*rs of Yueye City just love clearing off their PK value. Honestly, I don't even see the point in doing so. Just look at me; I've never bothered to clear off my PK value at all!” Dusky Cloud declared.
”That's true,” Gu Fei casually agreed. Understanding that these men had come here with good intentions, he expressed gratitude. He then said, ”I'm about to finish clearing off my PK value. No need to busy yourselves with this matter; it's fine for you guys leave.”
”How many is left?” Dusky Cloud asked.
”Just 7 PK points!” the men behind answered for him. It seemed that quite a handful of them had gotten Gu Fei as their 'Bounty Mission'.
”That's two more missions! We'll help you keep watch here,” Dusky Cloud said.
”No need to go through such trouble,” Gu Fei refused.
”We are brothers here; what's there to be courteous about?” Dusky Cloud was adamant.
