Chapter 150 - Planning To Kill Landlord! (1/2)
'No matter how many beasts you kill, or how many points you collect. I will make sure that you never get to use them, Landlord.' Solar Mist pushed his glasses upward and murmured with a hint of greed, as he stared at the drifting 3000 GP in the air, ”We need a change of plans.”
Calm and collected, he lowered his head, not bothering anymore with the announcement. His emotions were completely sealed behind his stoic expression.
”Guys enough staring at the sky like morons and pay attention here.” He clapped his hand twice, trying to break off the tense atmosphere that was caused by Felix's mindboggling achievement.
”Who are you calling a moron?” Pure Muscle lowered his head as well and stared right in Solar Mist's eyes.
”Know your place, Mr. Solar. We might have a contract forbidding us from acting against each other. But, the next time you insult me. This will be your fate.” Pure Muscle pointed his hand towards Solar Mist, and gripped his fist tightly, making the air inside his fist explode!
The players surrounding them gasped at such a pure demonstration of overwhelming physical strength. Pure Muscle didn't use a single ability to cause such an effect!
”I apologize for my tongue slip.” Surprisingly, Solar Mist didn't lash back at Pure Muscle's threat, he simply bowed his head slightly with a composed expression.
”F*cking sissy, can you act like a man for once?” Pure muscle clicked his tongue.
However, Solar acted deaf to such a blatant insult. In his eyes, there were more important matters to discuss than to argue with this bushy gorilla.
He ignored the hidden sneers and scoffs he was hearing from the players in front of him and said with a polite smile, ”Guys, as you have just seen, Landlord wasn't targeting the exit of the maze like we predicted he would after slaying the 2nd epic beast.” He sighed, ”Who would have expected that he would actually continue his hunting journey, and nevertheless, target legendary beasts that we treated like a plague in the maze, avoiding them at all costs.”
The majority of the players who were standing around him, all flinched or shivered at hearing Felix's achievement again. Until now, they still couldn't get over it and probably would never do so. Slaying a legendary beast solo was no joking matter.
Thus, 2nd thoughts on participating in ambushing Felix were beginning to pop up in their minds. After all, the only reason they even accepted the hardcore players' plan of killing Felix was because they were under a strict slave contract. In other words, they were under their mercy.
Felix assumed that it was due to luck that the game was prolonged beyond his expectations, helping him slay beast after beast unhindered. However, in reality, the game was supposed to end right after he slew the Terror Serpent!!
A full forty-minute delay was caused by one group, made of four players! Solar Mist, Hound Stench, Spirit Visage, and Pure Muscle.
They were the first ones to find the maze's exit. Of course, it wasn't at the same time, as Spirit Visage made it first and was followed by the others gradually.
They didn't give up on the wager as the rest did after seeing Felix's second announcement of slaying the Terror Serpent. Instead, they all had one thought in their minds, and that was to stop hunting for beasts and sprint towards the maze exit, hoping to meet up with Felix by chance and kill him. That was the only way to gain another chance at winning the bet.
However, it turned out that Felix wasn't the one who they met next to the maze exit, but each other!
The moment their eyes made contact, they immediately knew that each of them had the same thought. Thus, instead of fighting for no reason, they made an alliance to kill Felix.
Solar Mist who proposed the rule of having no allies before, explicitly mentioned forbidding allying together against beasts, and not players!
This meant, that allying together was within the wager rules. No one knows if Solar mist planned to leave such a loophole, or it was merely by chance.
Whatever it was, an alliance was created after stamping a contract, forbidding them from acting against each other, at least before Felix died.
That being said, they had absolutely no clue where Felix's current location was. Hence, instead of trying to find him inside this endless labyrinth, they decided to wait for him to come by himself.
After all, the first thought that should pop up on Felix's mind after finishing hunting the beasts was to sprint towards the exit and block anyone trying to win the game by using it.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #!_49081578525090081 for visiting.
One should never forget that the player with the highest points after the game duration passes would be the champion.
Felix, if he didn't have the golden scroll pointing at the legendary chest, would have done exactly what they have assumed.
