"The Flower Goblin has been stolen. Don"t you guys have an explanation?"
Recipient: Nine Solitary Spears.
Until he had no other choices, Hidden Lurker really did not want to seek Nine Solitary Spears" help. After all, Hidden Lurker also had a share in stealing other"s BOSS and could not escape from the responsibility.
However, Quan Zhen Sect and Hidden Lurker already had deep-seated animosity. Now that he was bullied by w.a.n.g Yu and seeing how things had developed to how it was, Hidden Lurker decided to make a risky gamble. Since they did not let him live, he too, did not want to let them live easily.
w.a.n.g Yu"s blocking of the gate to kill Hidden Lurker was a piece of high profile news, causing the entire city to be in chaos. Actually, Nine Solitary Spears had long heard of the news.
The Apocalypse indeed owed Quan Zhen Sect a boss, and Nine Solitary Spears, as was one of the few who knew w.a.n.g Yu inside out, did not want to offend w.a.n.g Yu.
Furthermore, after fighting with Quan Zhen Sect for years, Nine Solitary Spears was quite a despicable lad. He had already sold the BOSS to the United Alliance which could not kill it so Nine Solitary Spears was still able to save the cost of this BOSS.
If pursued in the future, Nine Solitary Spears could reason it based on how the United Alliance did not seek help and hence, he was ignorant of it to push away responsibility. At the same time, he could return Quan Zhen Sect a BOSS. Quan Zhen Sect would kill the boss while the United Alliance would foot the bill… Regardless, Apocalypse had nothing to lose.
However, if the United Alliance sought Nine Solitary Spears" help, he would not turn them down.
As the seller, and Sky Dragon City as Apocalypse"s home ground, if they ignored it when their clients were bullied, they would lose their reputation… Of course, Apocalypse originally already did not have a good reputation.
"What is going on? Someone dares to challenge us? Nine Solitary Spears received Hidden Lurker"s message and quickly replied as though he did not know what was going on.
"I don"t know. We paid already so you guys cannot simply ignore it." Hidden Lurker was an experienced player and could tell that Nine Solitary Spears did not have the intention to take action.
"We care, of course, we will care. What kind of help do you need, help you clean them out?" Nine Solitary Spears asked.
"Yes, send your people there quickly first to prevent the BOSS from dying." Hidden Lurker replied. Hidden Lurker knew that the Quan Zhen Sect people would not kill the boss but he still wanted Apocalypse people to keep an eye on the BOSS.
No matter how strong Quan Zhen Sect people were, it was impossible to blatantly steal a BOSS in front of the biggest guild in Sky Dragon City.
"Ok ok ok, I will make arrangements now." As a slave to money, Nine Solitary Spears had no choice but to agree to Hidden Lurker"s requests.
However, while Hidden Lurker and Nine Solitary Spears were sending messages, Quan Zhen Sect had already captured the Flower Goblin.
"Hurry, equip the Flower Goblin with the Hundred Flowers Outfit."
Ming Du just managed to capture the Flower Goblin and Fearless quickly ordered.
Such battle pets could be equipped with outfits so Ming Du hurriedly took off the Hundred Flowers Outfit and put it onto the Flower Goblin.
The Flower Goblin was extremely gorgeous. With the Hundred Flowers Outfit on, it looked drop-dead gorgeous… Everyone in Quan Zhen Sect stared in awe.
"Sigh, what a beauty, why is it a goblin…" Ming Du stroked the Flower Goblin"s seductive face, looking at it dotingly while Vainglory and Spring Halo stared at it in jealousy until their eyeb.a.l.l.s almost flew out.
"What a pity, I have so many battle pets and yet none are good enough… This newer ones are indeed better," Spring Halo sighed. Amongst all of Spring Halo"s battle pets, only one was female and it was only half a beast. Although Spring Halo did not think of himself as an angel, he could not bring himself to do anything lunatic.
Vainglory cried, "Shut up, I don"t even have a half-female battle pet."
"Enough chit-chats, let"s go… Hidden Lurker is extremely paranoid now." Fearless hurried the three of them.
After speaking, they headed out of the Fantasy Garden.
When they reached the entrance of Fantasy Garden, they happened to see Brother Light and some others loitering at the entrance of Fantasy Garden.
Brother Light had met these people from Quan Zhen Sect once. Fearless was afraid of being recognised so he sent a message to Ling Longmeng. He wanted Ling Longmeng to be the one to approach him.
"Finished fighting the BOSS?" Brother Light asked curiously.
"Finished." Ling Longmeng replied.
Brother Light tried to find out more, "Did it drop anything?" Brother Light was referring to the Crown of the Flower Goblin. Apocalypse had been guarding this BOSS for so long and yet, they had not gained a single Crown of the Flower Goblin. Hearing that the United Alliance spent a thousand gold to buy the BOSS, Brother Light believed that they had their own means.
"A pile of trash… We wasted so much money." Ling Longmeng said in an upset tone.
"Oh." Hearing that they had not obtained any decent items, Brother Light became pleased as he waved, "Let"s go and also help me say hi to Brother Liuyun."
"Alright." Quan Zhen Sect"s people heard what he said and lowered their head as they left the Fantasy Garden.
"Hmm, I think I have seen these people before…" Brother Light said as he saw their back view. Brother Light rubbed his bald head but did not realise that there was one more person in the team.
Usually, players remembered others based on unique traits such as amongst the nine people in Quan Zhen Sect, there were three women. This was the unique trait. As Ming Du gave his female outfit to the Flower Goblin, although the total number of people increased to ten, the number of women did not change.
Brother Light did not know that a BOSS could be captured. Under such a situation, he was not bothered by the number of people there.
Barely two minutes after Quan Zhen Sect left, Brother Light received Nine Solitary Spears" message, "Is there anyone fighting the BOSS at the Fantasy Garden?"
"Yes, United Alliance, but they left…" Brother Light replied.
"United Alliance? Did you see wrongly?" Nine Solitary Spears was slightly puzzled. Didn"t Hidden Lurker say that the BOSS had been s.n.a.t.c.hed?
Brother Light said, "No, I have been at the Fantasy Garden and the United Alliance people were here."
"Ok, understood." Nine Solitary Spears smiled as he appeared to have understood the situation.
The bystander always had a better view of what was happening. The United Alliance was complaining about how someone distracted them and captured the BOSS while Brother Light said that they had never left, and the news that someone was killed spread throughout the city… Adding up these three, Nine Solitary Spears could guess what was going on.
Quan Zhen Sect commonly used this trick, swapping the real one for a fake.
Thinking of this, Nine Solitary Spears replied, "I know, if anyone asks, just insist that you saw that the United Alliance had always been there."
"They really had always been here…" Brother Light was puzzled.
Nine Solitary Spears pulled open his friends" list and said, "Boss Hidden Lurker, how sly can you get? You killed the BOSS and yet complain that someone s.n.a.t.c.hed it. Are you trying to cheat me?"
"Killed?" Hidden Lurker was shocked.
"My subordinates saw that your men had never left." Nine Solitary Spears obviously did not want to take responsibility.
"Hey, Brother Solitary, hurry to the port! Otherwise, your BOSS will be gone!" A panicked Hidden Lurker said.
