Chapter 987: Heretic
“Hehe!”
Seeing the way the people from Quan Zhen Sect were treating him, Evil Rampage’s pride was at its peak. With a flop of his body, he sat on a chair with both of his legs crossed. The only thing that he felt missing was having someone fan him by the side.
Soon after, someone immediately came up and started fanning him. Fearless then said, “Now that Old Bull has reached LV 50, shall we let him see the effect of wearing a cape?”
“En! Not bad!” Upon hearing Fearless’ suggestion, Evil Rampage’s face immediately lit up. Pointing at w.a.n.g Yu, he said, “Little Yu, hurry up and put on the cape, so that big boss here can take a look at the goods!”
“Your father!” Seeing how arrogant Evil Rampage was, w.a.n.g Yu’s face darkened. He said spitefully, “You must be tired of living!”
Evil Rampage nonchalantly replied, “Hey, you say it as if your father is different from my father.”
“That’s right, Old Bull. How could you talk to Second Brother this way, hurry up and put on the cape for Second Brother to see!”
The shameless bunch from Quan Zhen Sect glared at w.a.n.g Yu.
“F*ck, you bunch of shameless b*stards!” w.a.n.g Yu wanted to cry so badly but no tears came out. Reluctantly, he took out the Angel’s Wings from his inventory and equipped it immediately.
However, the moment the item was equipped on, the sky above Twilight City instantly darkened.
Shortly after, a system announcement was made in the Global Chat.
The message was repeated three times. At the same time, a t.i.tle “Heretic Citizen” appeared above the heads of the players of Twilight City.
Heretic Citizen (t.i.tle)
Light Faction Honor Points -20
All attributes +2
Item Description: Citizens of the Heretic, bestowed with a unique power of faith.
Above the head of w.a.n.g Yu, on the other hand, appeared an additional heretic t.i.tle.
Heretic (t.i.tle)
Light Faction Honor Points -100
All attributes +10
[Leader’s Aura]: Within a range of 5000, all citizens experience a 10% in all of their attributes.
Item Description: Challenger of the Heavens.
“F*ck, what is going on?” After seeing the system’s announcement, all of the players in the game were momentarily stunned.
At this moment, everyone had either one of these two thoughts in their head.
The first train of thought was: This Iron Bull is overpowered. To think he would dare go against G.o.d…
The second train of thought was: This Iron Bull is a fool. To think that he would dare go against G.o.d…
<> was a game that was built on a religious background storyline. The players were also split into two factions of beliefs, they either believed in the Light or Dark Faction. Thus, the G.o.ds in this game could be considered almighty and omnipotent existences.
Ignoring the fact that one would need an absurd amount of power to go against G.o.d, just by its influence alone, it wasn’t something that could be challenged by a single player. The players from Twilight City were stunned as well… What the f*ck happened, how did they become the target of all the players in the game… everyone felt that they had been wrongfully dragged into this mess.
The one that was shocked the most was w.a.n.g Yu.
w.a.n.g Yu knew fully well of his capabilities.
Even though w.a.n.g Yu had the ability to solo a few BOSSes, he was completely powerless against an ent.i.ty such as the Light Faction. Just recently, he had met with the Knight of the Round Table. It was one of the many NPCs that w.a.n.g Yu was unable to deal with.
The territory of the Light Faction was extremely vast, with expert guards like Esther being in the hundreds. w.a.n.g Yu’s current act was similar to that of committing suicide.
“How, how could this happen…” w.a.n.g Yu helplessly asked.
Up till now, w.a.n.g Yu had yet to figure out what the root cause of the problem was.
Evil Rampage, on the other hand, said with a look of respect, “You truly are my elder brother! Every step you take you are sure to create trouble… This time, you had actually provoked the G.o.d of Light himself.”
w.a.n.g Yu replied, depressed, “Cut the c.r.a.p, I was wronged.”
“Wronged my *ss… didn’t you see the attributes of your cape?” Fearless retorted upon hearing what w.a.n.g Yu said.
The cape’s attributes? w.a.n.g Yu hastily opened up the equipment tab and started to read the lines of words written underneath the item’s description.
“As a symbol of strength of G.o.d’s most loyal follower, the Angels, is bestowed with immense power and utmost honor. Only followers of G.o.d are allowed to receive the blessings of G.o.d. Otherwise, anyone that equips it will be treated as heretics.”
Was w.a.n.g Yu a believer of G.o.d? Clearly he wasn’t… w.a.n.g Yu wasn’t even a player from the Light Faction, much less a believer of G.o.d. This cape could have jolly well been an extremely overpowered equipment for Priests and Knights. However, the moment w.a.n.g Yu had equipped it on, he had immediately became a heretic, en, and a dirty one at that.
“F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck! And you still asked me to equip it? Why didn’t you say so earlier?” w.a.n.g Yu was fl.u.s.tered; this was clearly a trap set up for him.
Fearless helplessly raised his hands and said, “I just thought of it too…”
“So what should we do now?”
At this moment, Ming Du couldn’t help but interject. It was fine if it was w.a.n.g Yu alone who had provoked the G.o.d of Light. The petty G.o.d of Light, however, decided to punish everyone including those Twilight City players. This G.o.dly artifact was certainly the worst.
w.a.n.g Yu gloomily answered, “What else can we do, just deal with it! Where else can you run?”
“This…” Upon hearing what w.a.n.g Yu said, the bunch of people from Quan Zhen Sect started to think the situation through deeply. Stroking his chin, Fearless said, “Do you think we would still have time if we choose to migrate now?”
Everyone was instantly infuriated, “That’s a terrible idea… it’s simply too unloyal.”
Fearless sighed and said, “I was just casually asking. To think that you bunch of disloyal people actually entertained such an idea.”
“Cheh, Fearless, you tras.h.!.+” everyone fervently scolded.
Just when everyone was busy verbally attacking one another, Evil Rampage suddenly interjected and said, “Migrate my *ss! I can’t even leave this City!!”
“What’s the matter?” Everyone asked simultaneously.
Evil Rampage replied, “Take a look at the Quest Tab yourselves!”
Everyone immediately opened their Quest Tab, only to see a ranked Quest appear at the top of their Quest Tab.
Faith your *ss… Upon seeing the Quest’s description, everyone couldn’t help but wallow in self-pity.
F*ck… now everyone has become a quest mob with a reward on their heads. If it was before, even if the players were unable to win, they could still flee from the battle. However, now that the teleportation points and ports were sealed, everyone didn’t even have the chance to escape.
As scavengers themselves, the players from Quan Zhen Sect knew full well how crazy players could get. If there were no rewards involved, everyone wouldn’t be bothered by the predicament of Twilight City. However, now that the G.o.d of Light has shown his ruthlessness, promising players a special reward from the Light Faction for partic.i.p.ating in this battle, all of the players in Twilight City had immediately been entangled into this civil war…
How could everyone hope to survive this?
