Chapter 1343: Lava Teeth’s Plan
“???”
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 pa.s.s 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 w.a.n.g 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 t.i.tle of a City Lord wouldn’t be the City Lord even if they had the seal.
That was why w.a.n.g 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 t.i.tle 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 pa.s.sing s.h.i.+ps 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 w.a.n.g 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.
It seemed like it was the same in every country, Pugilists did not have any superiority in other servers either.
“However, my team was killed by a single Pugilist just now!” Chiat showed the same terrified expression once again. It seems like w.a.n.g Yu made a very deep impression on Chiat.
“This…”
Everyone was stunned after hearing what Chiat said.
They were familiar with Chiat’s team’s combat ability after working together for so long.
Even though they were not the strongest, they were not any weaker than the other teams either. Wiped out by a single Pugilist?
“Haha!” Bone Soul Pill laughed and said, “Chiat, I wouldn’t have imagined your team to become this weak!”
“Haha!”
Chiat knew that the others would not believe what he said, so he sat back down and kept quiet after Bone Soul Pill’s comments.
He said everything that he should have said and the fate lay in the hands of others now.
“How about this!”
Bone Soul Pill volunteered himself after Chiat stopped talking and said, “Boss, how about you give me some manpower and I will block the Chinese at the entrance of the prison. You just have to let me be your a.s.sistant after this.”
Bone Soul Pill was indeed good at grasping every opportunity he got.
“I oppose! The prison is under the administration of my Team 13, why should Team 2 take over? Boss, I will do it!”
“I oppose! Don’t you know how bad your Team 13 is? Team 9 should be the one going for it!”
“I oppose…”
After Bone Soul Pill’s self-recommendation, the office became noisy with arguments between the key players of the guild… Their disunity was exposed.
The only quiet ones were Chiat and Lava Teeth, watching all of them argue.
Chiat just did not want to get involved in this and Lava Teeth already had his own plans.
After all of them got tired from arguing, Lava Teeth spoke slowly, “Was that enough?”
“Boss, so who will you send?” everyone asked at the same time. No one wanted to give up this opportunity to climb the corporate ladder.
“Hehe!” Lava Teeth smile and said, “I have already sent people to guard the prison while you guys argued.”
“Who?”
Everyone was stunned and started looking around.
Lava Teeth waved his hands and continued, “Every single one of you in Black Dragon Guild will be involved this time around!”
“To… to this extent? Aren’t they just a murder of crows? Do you really need all of us?” Everyone was confused…
The law does not punish numerous offenders, and the credit system works the same way as well. If everyone went, that would not be considered as a contribution anymore…
“No, you guys are excluded!”
