Chapter 1343 - Lava Teeth’s Plan (1/2)

“???”

Chiat stood up and the office became deafeningly quiet. Everyone’s attention was on him.

Although he could sit in this office, he did not have a high status in Black Dragon Guild. Compared to the others that were there, he was just someone extra and did not have proper rights to speak even during the usual days.

It was the first time everyone saw Chiat taking the initiative to express his opinions.

However, Lava Teeth did not seem too surprised to see Chiat’s action.

Chiat’s territory was the harbour in Saga City, the place that the Chinese had to pass by to get into Saga City. Chiat was the first one who came into contact with Quan Zhen Sect and Lava Teeth would have started questioning him even if he did not speak up.

Seeing how Chiat stood up voluntarily, Lava Teeth nodded and asked, “Oh, so what are they trying to do?”

Chiat reported honestly, “The Chinese have been asking for City Lord Karl’s whereabouts and my men even got into a conflict with them.”

“City Lord Karl?” After listening to Chiat, all of the people in the office exclaimed, “Are you sure your men did not hear wrongly? Karl?”

“Unlikely! I have just interacted with them earlier and they were repeating Karl’s name in their conversations.”

All of them figured out everything and said, “It seems like they already found out where Karl is which explains why they are recruiting players here.”

Karl’s whereabouts was not a secret and it was not surprising for people to know where he was locked in.

However, Lava Teeth frowned and said, “So why are they here for Karl? Are they here to kill him or save him?”

Karl was not very strong and was in fact, comparatively weak. It was no wonder he could still be kept in a prison by Black Dragon Guild even as a City Lord.

However, this useless man was utterly important to Black Dragon Guild…

Because Lava Teeth was just like Wang Yu, a City Lord by name without the seal.

To be a City Lord, Karl was clearly also an intelligent NPC. In order to restrict NPC like him, the system had restrictions placed on the seals. NPCs without the title of a City Lord wouldn’t be the City Lord even if they had the seal.

That was why Wang Yu gave the managing rights of Twilight City to an NPC. It was the same reason why Harbour City was a pirates’ lair previously.

The pirates did not have the title nor the seal of the City Lord to that huge city. The only thing they had was a city that was not recognised, hence they could only rob passing ships for survival.

Hence, it made a huge difference whether Quan Zhen Sect’s motive was to kill or to rescue Karl.

If it was just like how Wang Yu thought, Black Dragon Guild’s millions of people would definitely crush Quan Zhen Sect, who only had a few players and a burdensome Karl. It would make Quan Zhen Sect’s escape close to impossible, because a burdensome teammate was more problematic than a strong opponent.

If Quan Zhen Sect’s goal was to kill Karl, Black Dragon Guild could not do anything to protect Karl’s life even if they had millions of people on their side, because no one could guarantee his life when a war of such scale broke out.

One must know that Karl was the key to deciding Saga City’s final owner. Until the day the Black Dragon Guild obtained the seal, they would never allow Karl to die.

Hence, they needed to figure out Quan Zhen Sect’s true motive.

“I’m not sure about this!”

“Oh, how is that so?” Everyone raised their brows upon hearing Chiat’s words.

F*ck, they were in Black Dragon Guild’s office, what would be even harder to deal with than Black Dragon Guild?

Chiat showed a terrified expression and sighed while speaking, “Do you guys know what is the weakest job currently?”

“None other than the Pugilist!” everyone answered without hesitation.
