Chapter 1288 - Guild Crusade (2/2)
“They won’t be able to with me here.” Dafis waved casually. Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and said, “Don’t forget what you promised after it’s done…”
The emissary chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, we’ve been working together for so long. The people above never thought of going back on their word. As long as you can handle this problem properly, not only will we support you to continue expanding, but we’re even willing to let you become one of the controllers of the black market behind the curtains. You will get your dividends from the black market as promised too.”
“Of course I trust you guys.” Dafis smiled with satisfaction.
He had chosen to take the risk of offending the Black Star Army, of course, for his own interests. No way was he going to risk his life without enough profit.
Due to the Feeney Civilization’s liking of mechanical prosthetics, the profit the black markets of this area earned through smuggling machines every year was an outrageous figure. Dafis had been tempted by it for a very long time. Now, he just had to remove the nails the outsiders had planted there, and he would be able to take a bite of this huge cake. To him, this was a perfect opportunity.
Thinking of the bright future where he could earn more than enough cash to swim in, Dafis was so overjoyed even his cells felt more active than usual.
However, at this time, a change suddenly occurred!
Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly sounded in the base. The two of them both felt the base tremble. The glasses on the table fell onto the floor, and the heavy metal drink spilled all over like a puddle of black oil.
Then, a blaring alarm rang, and the warning lights lit up, painting the entire room red.
Dafis stood up instantly, summoned his aide-de-camp, and yelled, “What’s happening?”
“Boss, the base just got bombarded. The enemy’s ship cannons are too strong. The protective shield cracked, and some of them already charged into the base. The artificial intelligence center is now sending troops over!” the aide-de-camp hastily replied.
“Who dares to attack my headquarters? Are there Calamity Grades?” Dafis was shocked and furious.
“I—I don’t know, there’s no symbol on their spaceships but no Calamity Grade energy source has been detected…”
“They have no Calamity Grade, yet they dare attack my headquarters?”
Dafis was enraged. He pushed the aide-de-camp aside and headed out of the room.
This time, the emissary said with a worried tone, “Should I hide for now?”
“What’s there to be afraid of? I’ll handle the problem and come back in no time.”
Dafis walked out without even looking back.
The aide-de-camp was just about to follow behind when the emissary suddenly grabbed his arm.
He turned and saw the emissary said, “Er… I’d better hide. Do you have a safehouse here?”
More than ten completely black battleships hovered outside the base, continuously launching attacks.
Boom!
Dark red beams from cannons dashed right across and landed on the protective shield of the Heavy Iron Guards’ space base, creating countless cracks.
Charge cabins and airdrop cabins covered in shields continuously shot out from under the battleships, bolting onto the surface of the base through the cracks. Some were destroyed in midair by the base’s artillery cannons, but some penetrated the base’s armor, leaving holes behind.
“Keep sending people down! All those who board the enemy headquarters successfully, remember to bind your revival flag!”
Inside the main ship’s command room, Jupiter issued orders loudly with excitement.
All the people in this fleet were players of the Guild of Gods, which took quite some time to gather secretly. After obtaining enough intelligence, they charged toward Dafis’ headquarters.
In order to kill a Calamity Grade, the Guild of Gods went all out. These battleships were all assets of the guild that were equipped with tons of war weapons. Although there were not many of them, their technology was very advanced and very high quality. It was basically overkill to use them against a civilian armed force, all just so that the members could quickly board the enemy base.
At this time, the guild channel was filled with messages that refreshed the screen every second.
“Nice, I got in!”
“People behind, come quickly! The enemy’s reinforcements are here.”
“Mages and Psychics control the battlefield. Give the Mechanics time to summon their machines!”
“Don’t waste time on minions. Force the boss out!”
Inside the base, the players who had boarded were on a slaughter. They were all high-level Grade B Supers, killing tons of guarding troops like harvesting crops.
At this time, a huge pressurizing presence rapidly approached.
With a loud bang, the metal wall on one side was broken open, and Dafis rushed in holding that heavy axe in his hands.
Dafis looked around and locked his eyes onto Army Commander’s Big PP-he had an impression of this guy whom he had killed ten times. He was furious.
“It’s you?”
Army Commander’s Big PP crushed a Grade C Mechanical Pugilist with a cannon attack, turned around, and grinned.
“Surprised? I told you I’d be back!”
Before Dafis could reply, Army Commander’s Big PP pointed at him with his gun and yelled, “Brothers, that’s him. Get him!”
The next moment, the eyes of everyone focused on Dafis. The excitement of seeing a prey appeared in their eyes.
Even with how experienced Dafis was on the battlefield, being stared by a ton of Grade B Supers still made him intuitively shiver.
However, the next moment, the rage in his body exploded. He raised his mechanical heavy axe and charged right into the battlefield, blasting away two players in his path.
“You’re all… looking to die!”
On the side of the players, they yelled almost simultaneously, “Team MT! Go!”
