Chapter 274: The Day of Changes
Indigo's restaurant was temporarily closed so Sila could use it as his headquarters He stared at his systeh his quest had ended successfully, the overall situation was still dire for hiuessed incorrectly, thinking Montra would invade Belacia City Thus, strengthening the city's defense turned out to be pointless On the other hand, he used so two main cities sirave for the Wicked Union”
Sila read the intel that Julia had sues that had happened to the game on this exact day Just this day alone overturned more aspects of Monster Soul than all of the previous days combined
The first piece of bad neas that Sila had lost ownershi+p of Lost Grea City Even worse, all of the investments hewith the large stock of prepared weapons The weapons that he intended to use against the Heavenly Dragon Guild sadly turned into their assets It was the worst business deal
The second piece was about his own reputation The naood way All of his sinful behaviors in the past, so up and revealed throughMonster Soul hated hi they had Each revelation was properly supported by well-prepared evidence
The scary part was that each claim had a shade of truth
There was an article about Sila being the cause behind the Werewolves sieging the Town of Beginnings, killingto help players survive On the other hand, it was none other than the Magic Emperor Montra and the Two Monarchs ere the real heroes, though the three were above showing off Still, the truth will always be the truth as no amount of lies can cover it It was finally revealed to everyone
The Sli evidence In fact, it also connected to the destruction of the Pillars of Wind throughout the Main Continent As the truth cauilds finally found the perpetrator, they declared that they wouldn't allow Sila to breathe the same air as them
There was also a video of the battle in Grea City, during which Sila's appearance was no different fro players without batting an eye There was also the scene of hi innocent merchants in aThe battlefield at that time was so chaotic It wouldn't be weird if some innocent players couldn't leave the city in tion Guildof when Sila was so vicious, burning the player named Thief555 in theabout their treazes
In addition, there was the scene of hi next to Rex in Belacia City The two of them were obviously on friendly terms People speculated that Sila, the Monster Ele-Horned Dragons becoons even exited the forest and killed nearby travelers
There were erated
Players throughout Monster Soul now held deep hatred toward Sila They even foraes The Wicked Union had fewer members so their mobility was better Their maneuverability was quicker and harder to predict
Still, bigger teaon Guild had a larger number ofdifferent tasks, e rumors Even a lie could turn into a truth when thousands of people spoke with one voice
With the number of people under his command, Montra could easily manipulate the flow of rumors He only had to say a word and let the three hundred thousand guild members repeat after it Even if the rest of the players in the game didn't believe the rumors, they would at least have some doubts
He who controls information, controls the world
Montra didn't try to profit froon Guild even provided assistance and gave discounts to players visiting the cities The products sold in the cities were incredibly cheap, especially the laser-based weapons More iher in quality coement This topic made those who had purchased Sila's products becoreedy profiteer Not only had he sold low-quality products, but he had also profited wildly
Noticing what Sila was reading, Sebastian commented, ”We held a h price Unfortunately, now that Montra has confiscated the products in what used to be our warehouses, he bears almost no cost of production and can sell them cheaply Not only does his action improve his reputation, but people will also blame us”
”What if ant to reconquer the city?” asked Sila
Julia, who stood behind her master, reported, ”The quest condition that Player Montra achieved was killing the Android King, along with all Android Soldiers within the entire city, by hile attack To conquer the city, Master will have to perforreater achievement or kill the city's ruler within the city However”
Sila frowned ”However what? Is there still more?”
”Yes It is a known fact that Player Montra had the Lordshi+p of Protection, granting his co as they are within his territories However, as he has reached Level 1,000 Emperor Rank, his Lordshi+p evolved into an Emperorshi+p His current ruler ability is the E a 50 increase in overall stats instead of the previous 30 Additionally, so long as at least one ally re to hined ruler”
”This will be very troublesome How can we tell ordinary players apart froon Guild members?”
”Would you like to try Kimon's method?” Asava's voice entered the roouised as Vata Asava's appearance looked a little dirty The last one was a boy who Sila had never met before
Sila was about to ask the boy's identity, but Himeko introduced him before he opened his mouth ”This person is Vlad The one you saw before was his aze re to Asava ”What method?”
Asava explained, ”assassination jobs are soet's appearance or even identity Thus, We have no et In your particular situation, Sila, all you need to do is declare your intention to raid the city soon, though you don't need to specify the date You then ask the unrelated parties to evacuate the city, telling everyone that you will kill anybody in sight once the raid commences With this done, the city will have no one left but your eneuarantee that everyone will leave Soon Guild ht stay behind just because they hate me”
”In that case, we Kimon will also consider the, yet they didn't listen Therefore, it's no longer our responsibility As they are hostile to us anyway, it's better for us to get rid of theether”
”If we do that, the public will hate us h,” commented Julia
”I will impart you some wisdoenerations” Asava showed aare sithe cards rightwell My dark art centers around the belief that there is always e You just need to play the right card at the right tiaining trust fro a villain et and weaken their morale Such are the cards in your hands that have already been dealt If you fold now and hope for a better hand, you aste both the chances and the ti currently available to you Wouldn't it be better to take advantage of your current situation? In ga, even a bad hand can win the round if the player is sh”
”What do we have?” Sila asked, ”And what is it that we lack?”
”We have fewer people on our side, but each of theainst a hundred foes The probleood city, but the enemies know it too well It's better to assume that they even know about the secret route Moreover, even though the environment is harsh, the area is quite clear and vacant, suitable for them to set up camp around the city and cut off our escape”
A flash of wisdoered in Sila's eyes He said, ”What about the Island of Beginnings? That place is where the Sli it, so they won't be able to surround us”
