“Damn it, who is Heavenly Cloud? He slayed a Boss in such a short time. Which guild is he in?”
“He doesn’t have a guild prefix, so it shows that he is an unaffiliated player. Could it be that it was a sole player, and he had snatched the Boss from the guild?”
“That’s impossible. I think this might be a trap. The solo player made such a move to gain fame and then planned to join one of the guilds. That will save the guilds plenty of advertisement fee.”
“D*mn. Now that you mention it, it is possible. These guilds have many tricks up their sleeves.”
“Does anyone have any more specific information? Can you reveal it?”
“There’s a reward for Heavenly Cloud’s personal information.”
The news kept refreshing on the world chat room. Players said many things in the chat room, but those were only their guesses about Su Jin.
In the Novice Village’s resurrection point, the guild players gathered there saw the announcement. Everyone had a complicated expression on their faces. One of them would have gotten the fame and reward if it weren’t because of that unexpected circumstances.
The lower-level members sighed a few times before they stopped caring. Instead, they waited for the upper-levels to make a decision.
The upper levels of the guilds suffered the most loss.
Tyrant Knight frowned as he looked at Nocturnal Cat, the guild president of the Assassin’s Guild. Nocturnal Cat did not say anything. Instead, he nodded slightly. The two of them instantly reached a tacit agreement.
“Rose, Greed Wolf, what do you think? Are you two going to forget the humiliation and act humbly in front of a sole player in the future?”
“How is that possible?” Greed Wolf couldn’t accept that and retort.
However, Scarlet Rose did not say a single word. It was as if she was trying her best to recall something.
Fury stroke Tyrant Knight. Scarlet Rose’s reaction displeased him. They were the presidents of guilds and seldom gathered. He was unhappy that Scarlet Rose didn’t state out her opinion or join forces with them when all of them were now in such a state.
If not for the fact that the strength of the two guilds was equal, Tyrant Knight would have scolded Scarlet Rose in public.
After waiting for a while, Scarlet Rose regained her senses and raised her head, saying, “I’ve decided. Rosette Guild will not participate in this matter, and neither will we participate in any of these in the future.”
“You can go ahead if you want to teach Heavenly cloud a lesson.”
After saying this, she turned to look at Greedy Wolf and said, “I suggest that you join me. What’s the point of bullying a sole player? Don’t tell me that the two guilds are unable to defeat a sole player?”
Tyrant Knight was displeased and said, “This isn’t a matter of strength. It’s a matter of attitude. If you don’t care, then, of course, you don’t have to express your opinion. If you do, then you have to say a few words. Don’t you tell me that you are going to do nothing and take advantage of the situation while we do the job?”
Scarlet Rose ignored him. She waved her hand and led her guild members away.
Greed Wolf hesitated for a moment. But, in the end, he did not leave with Scarlet Rose.
He could be an ally or an enemy of the Rosette Guild. Today, he had been slain by the sole player, and many of his equipment had taken. He wouldn’t let go of this matter easily. Their guild could not recruit new members if this humiliation spread into rumors.
In the end, the three guilds stayed behind and decided to deal with Su Jin. The guild presidents had exchanged contact numbers so they could communicate easily.
In their opinion, even though Heavenly Cloud was powerful, he wasn’t someone they couldn’t defeat.
If the three guilds worked together to slay him, they would be able to vent their anger and solve the threat in the future.
Meanwhile, Scarlet Rose led her guild members out of the resurrection point. The entire party was silent. Although no one complained, everyone had the same thought.
The solo player had slain the guild players for no reason. Their president refused revenge on the sole player. Sure enough, most of the guild players weren’t happy about it.
“President, you can reject other players’ offers without any explanation. But, at least, you have to tell us why you did that, right? Why should thousands of players in our guilds have to be afraid of Heavenly Cloud?”
“That’s right. The solo player is just taking the opportunity to ambush us. We might be able to slay him if we fought face to face.”
