Chapter 391 - Admit Defeat (2/2)

If Oathless Sword had been feeling e any potential bitterness with Deep Waters, the comment he just made had essentially eliminated it all He turned towards Gu Fei with a blackened face and said, “I'm off to finish the quest!”

“Mmm!” Gu Fei nodded as he munched on that apple

Oathless Sas excited! He could feel each step he took up the stairs trehts and ti about for this mission, the sacrifice of his many comrades and brothers alike, all of it was about to pay off in a major way! What sort of rewards awaited hi, Gu Fei suddenly interrupted, “Wait!”

“What?” Oathless Sword felt his heart lurch

“The trap Todd was caught on isn't over yet,” Gu Fei pointed out

Oathless Sword turned around and saw that Todd was still helplessly standing there like a block of wood, the trap that ensnared hi Oathless Sword could do but wait for that trap to disappear

Deep Waters's underlings were also waiting for thee traps they had triggered to finish as well Gu Fei and the others stood by the side together, with Deep Waters and Coco standing a short distance away These ed between anyone It was all quiet

And not too far away, there were already players checking them all out

They were near the West Gate, and thespecial attention to the area around all the four city gates Why would they believe YMH when he told theet would be at the North Gate? The Luori City ullible as to take it at face value, especially since those at the North Gate had already reported that they saw no trace of Todd or the players escorting him, which only made the others focus their efforts on the areas around the other gates

By now, the battle outside the Prison had already ended, but a bunch of players to standing there without e scene for any onlookers

Even though the scene before theinal description of “Not too many people and secretive”, the natives realized the lot of them were undoubtedly “unfamiliar faces” upon closer inspection

Thus, the leader in charge of staking out the East gate personally led a fewby

Everybody split the job a themselves as they carefully applied their Appraisal Skill on those players standing around After walking a certain distance, an expression of astonishroup as he excitedly shouted across the party channel, “TODD!”

This was a ot close, Todd's name appeared above his head, just like how the serial nuet would appear above their head As the other players in that party were people who came to help afterwards and did not have the e

Theeverybody of the situation, the number of players, their position etc

Seeing that the enemy had yet to beco their Appraisal on everybody All they saere question marks when they attempted to Appraise the top tier experts like Gu Fei, much less someone of Svelte Dancer's equip were all elites that he had handpicked for this operation, so their standard was naturally better than that of the average player After Appraising thesei their intentions this as a pretty good option by itself

Unfortunately, they had underestimated the enemy's observation skills

Svelte Dancer, Gu Fei, Vast Lushness, Deep Waters and even Oathless Sere all experts that had seen plenty It was not necessarily suspicious to find this group of players passing by like this, neither was it too suspicious for players to toss out Appraisal skills casually like this It was a very coht in MMOs

What made them suspicious however, was the manner in which they passed by These er This was especially obvious after their expressions were particularly exaggerated the moment they discovered that the people here were not the usual experts with their Appraisal

“Who are you people?” Oathless Sas the first to call them out, since he was naturally the one o once even a sliver of doubt that crossed his mind

But the first to act was actually Gu Fei, who darted straight towards theht broke out, he would be able to attack at the first sign of trouble

These e the moment Oathless Sword asked them that question, but the h”

Deep Waters could also tell soinally defeated expression reignited with hope once more If there was a chance, he would surely make use of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters!
