Chapter 1494: Punishment
“I heard that this house belongs to you?
After taking Captain Don’t Open Fire captive, w.a.n.g Yu did not punch him to death immediately but inquired about some issues.
“Yes… It is mine…”
Captain Don’t Open Fire nodded subserviently… Not knowing the meaning behind his words.
“This real estate dog sure has money…” w.a.n.g Yu sighed, “Do you know why I had to take you captive?”
“No, I don’t know…” Captain Don’t Open Fire was almost in tears.
As a rich man, Captain Don’t Open Fire knew that people who were overbearing were not as dangerous as they seemed. The true danger were people who could keep their cool above their anger.
“You don’t know?” w.a.n.g Yu furrowed his eyebrows, “It looks like you have yet to know how to repent…”
“No, no, no!” Hearing what w.a.n.g Yu said, Captain Don’t Open Fire was terrified and quickly interjected, “I know my mistakes. I will never do it again…”
“Hm? What do you think of me being the City Lord? Be honest!” w.a.n.g Yu continued probing with an unchanged expression.
Captain Don’t Open Fire raised his thumb in support saying, “You have done everything in the interest of Twilight’s City citizens, you are indeed a great City Lord!”
“Hm, what you said makes perfect sense. I also feel this way.” w.a.n.g Yu nodded at himself approvingly and replied, “Don’t ever try to a.s.sa.s.sinate me anymore, you understand?”
“…”
Upon hearing w.a.n.g Yu, Captain Don’t Open Fire knew the reason why Quan Zhen Sect and Void Blade could not co-exist together.
Captain Don’t Open Fire lost his vigour and desire to fight.
w.a.n.g Yu did not sense the changes in Captain Don’t Open Fire but simply said, “Do you know what you have to do now?”
“… This.” Captain Don’t Open Fire looked on pitifully as he fished out the Seal and handed it to w.a.n.g Yu, “I am willing to surrender…”
“Do you think it is all over because you are going to surrender?” As soon as w.a.n.g Yu received the Seal, he looked at Captain Don’t Open Fire with a menacing gaze.
Captain Don’t Open Fire was trembling in fear and cried out, “Great G.o.d Iron Bull, we already know our mistakes. We will never dare to trespa.s.s Quan Zhen Sect.”
This declaration was genuine from Captain Don’t Open Fire.
Captain Don’t Open Fire originally thought that having tens of thousands of players could help him repress Quan Zhen Sect. However, it turned out that having such overwhelming numbers was not enough against them…
People like him were way too terrifying.
“Hmph!” w.a.n.g Yu coldly scoffed, “You have offended so many people. Even if the Quan Zhen Sect was going to spare you, do you think the other guilds will?”
Captain Don’t Open Fire feeling faint upon hearing those words. He shockingly asked, “So… Your intention is to banish my Void Blade out of Twilight City?”
Banishment was a punishment of the highest degree in <>.
Players who were banished not only had their reputation reset to zero, but were not allowed ever back into the City. Even if they were to reside in other cities, the NPCs in those regions would treat them with scorn and disgust.
After all, banishment was only accorded to the worst offenders, they were treated as criminals and the NPCs would never trust them ever.
Players in the game joined guilds so that they can enjoy a sense of belonging.
Since he had lost the City Lord position and NPCs would not a.s.sign him any missions anymore or allow him to sell any items, there was no meaning in the game left.
Therefore, banishment to a guild was the worst sentence one could meet.
Furthermore, Captain Don’t Open Fire still had countless properties and a sprawling guild headquarters within Twilight City.
Whether it was properties in the City or the outskirts, Captain Don’t Open Fire had invested a huge amount of effort to acquire them.
Once they were banished, these a.s.sets would turn completely useless.
Even though he was flushed with money, Captain Don’t Open Fire definitely felt fear and trembling if such a scenario were to materialise.
“This is what you said. I don’t have such power!” w.a.n.g Yu waved his concerns, “My bottomline is that I simply don’t want to see you guys around. As for the details of how that is going to happen is up to you.”
w.a.n.g Yu’s annoyance towards Captain Don’t Open Fire had reached an extreme point.
Although he did not explicitly banish Void Blade, the meaning in his words were clear. Scram as soon as possible away from his sight.
It was indeed difficult for w.a.n.g Yu to be so annoyed with someone with his character. He could even bring himself to look at the more lovable aspects of someone like Nine Solitary Spears. w.a.n.g Yu simply did not know what he could see in Captain Don’t Open Fire other than his wealth.
Thinking about it carefully, it was not unreasonable for w.a.n.g Yu to dislike Captain Don’t Open Fire after all.
