Chapter 1068: The Most Difficult Environment
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As Happy led the four Myth Realm martial artists and rushed through Class One Hall’s blockade, and more than one thousand Class One Hall players received a system notification at the same time.
“You have committed a crime by attacking a high-ranking official of the imperial court.”
If they had a bounty placed on their heads by the imperial court, the crime they committed was not light.
More than one hundred people were killed by Happy out of the thousand or so people. The remaining people were chased all over the place by the martial artists from Embroidered Uniform Guards, Six Doors, Western Depot, and Eastern Depot. Most of them were captured and brought to justice in the city and sent into prison.
Even Evil Emperor was hunted by the imperial court because he had attacked without reason in the city in front of a Golden Saber Constable, and he was considered as an unwelcome presence by the imperial court, and he would be chased around for one week. In the end, he had to break out of the encirclement formed by an increasing number of soldiers from the imperial court and rush out of Beijing.
During the battle at the ruins of Wind Assault Tower’s former headquarters, not only Happy had escaped unscathed after he killed thousands of Class One Hall members, he also sent more than one thousand Class One Hall members into the prison of the ministry of punishment while he was escorting Wind Chimes back to Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion, causing them to suffer but be unable to say anything about it. At the same time, he also set up Evil Emperor, the strongest player in the world to the point that he could not enter Beijing.
News of this event quickly spread through World of Martial Arts.
Countless Chinese heroes clapped their hands and applauded when they learned of this news.
It was said that Phantasmal Shadow, who was busy contacting all the heroes in the restaurant, immediately stopped contacting them the moment she learned of this news. She asked for a cup of wine, which was something rare of her, and the first hint of a smile over the day also showed up on her face, which was also rare of her to do. Then, she took the initiative to leave the restaurant and went straight to Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion.
The Chinese server’s Iron Triangle Alliance was gathered once more at Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion.
*****
Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion was no longer calm.
The owner of the mansion, Wandering Know-it-all was no longer dejected. His face glowed, and he thanked One Emperor, Wu Kuo, and the others with his disciple, Wind Chimes.
“Everyone, I thank you for saving me today!”
The group was also worn down by their journey here. While they were on their way here, they were ambushed by a lot of people, and aside from One Emperor, the rest all had some degree of wounds on their bodies. However, all this was clearly worth it. Wind Chimes had safely returned to Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion and protected her abilities as Demonic Zither. They could be considered to have solved a rather huge problem.
“I, Wind Chimes, thank all of you for saving me!”
Wind Chimes curtsied, shocking Wu Kuo and the rest so much that they quickly went forward to help her up. They smiled and said.
“You’re being too polite! We’re all in the same team, and if you’re so polite, you’ll be treating us like strangers!”
“Heh, that’s right.”
“By the way, we only helped you a little this time. Happy is the one who contributed a big part to this. If we didn’t have him, even if we have a foolproof plan, we wouldn’t have been able to get you back from Evil Emperor.”
“That’s right!”
“Brother Happy is not only unfathomable, his wits are also superior. Even Evil Emperor and Dream Clouds have been set up by him. Haha! It sure was satisfying this time!”
While Wu Kuo and the rest gasped in amazement, they also felt satisfied, as if their hate had been vented.
Then, Wu Kuo changed his tone and said, “But this time, Brother Happy killed thousands of people in town, and the crime he committed is great. I wonder if he has managed to break out of the encirclement.”
“Don’t worry. Even when four Myth Realm martial artists were sent to stop him, they couldn’t. Right now, there’s only one left, and if he wants to leave, there’s no one in the world who can stop him.” One Emperor had been keeping quiet by the side all this while, and he spoke at this moment.
“True that. Even Evil Emperor was set up by him and can’t free up any of his time to fight against him. It’s also impossible for Dream Clouds to send someone to their deaths.”
“We can finally have a good sleep tonight.”
“It’s still too early for us to relax. Happy is being chased down by four Myth Realm elites, and he cannot enter the city for at least a week. We’re trapped in Beijing and can’t get out as well. Our situation hasn’t changed.” Wu Kuo, who did not lose his rationality because of the fight, reminded everyone of this fact in a somber tone.
When they heard this, the excited and happy expressions they had fell away.
Indeed, Wind Assault Tower had not got over its danger yet.
Or rather, the timer ticking down on Wind Assault Tower’s destruction had not stopped yet.
The atmosphere in the mansion seemed to have become grave.
At that moment, Phantasmal Shadow pushed open the door and entered the mansion from outside while looking travel worn.
Wandering Know-it-all and the group turned their faces around.
“Tower master!”
The people from Wind Assault Tower noticed that Phantasmal Shadow’s mood was much better than before, and they quickly got up.
The heroic, valiant, and confident presence Phantasmal Shadow had in the past seemed to have returned to her. She quickly stated her goal for coming here. “Everyone, please sit down. Master, I came here this time to discuss something with all of you.”
As she spoke, she swept her gaze over at One Emperor, as if this was her telling him that this matter was related to him.
“Go on.” Wandering Know-it-all and One Emperor’s expressions became stern.
Wind Assault Tower was affected the greatest in the war this time. They lost most of the four hundred branches they had and suffered a great number of casualties. Wind Assault Tower was also in a precarious situation.
Right now, every single one of Phantasmal Shadow’s decisions might affect Wind Assault Tower’s survival. Since she came over so hastily this time, she might have made an important decision!
And just as they expected, once she surveyed the group and watched all of them sit down, she announced, “This is what is going to happen. Right now, Evil Emperor has been forced to leave Beijing, and he’s even chased by Myth Realm martial artists. It’s certain that he won’t be able to stay for long near Beijing. This is a rare chance for us. If we succeed, we can break out of the encirclement and leave Beijing to head south until we reach a place Dream Clouds cannot touch.”
Wandering Know-it-all asked, “What do you mean? Even though Evil Emperor is being hunted down, we also have someone on our side being hunted down. Happy, too, can’t enter Beijing anymore.”
The others might not have said anything, but they suppressed the curiosity in their hearts and listened quietly.
Phantasmal Shadow said, “I know this, of course. But breaking out of the encirclement is our matter, and we have the initiative.”
Wandering Know-it-all nodded and said, “Yes. I know that you want to use the power of the four sects to break out of the encirclement, but the cities nearby are all filled with people from Class One Hall, and they take up all the roads. You have too many people on your side, and if you take any action, you will be found out.”
“That’s right. Not only are our people being closely monitored, once the headquarters of the four sects are destroyed, they do not dare get out of the cities readily as well. The city gates are filled with people from Class One Hall.”
Phantasmal Shadow changed the direction of the conversation. “That’s why I intend to ask Happy to take action. There is no doubt about Happy’s strength. He managed to set up Evil Emperor even when four Myth Realm martial artists were attacking him, and he managed to escape unscathered. I believe that he will have a way to get rid of the trouble of being hunted.”
“If it’s just a small problem, I can still ask the inner cabinet to suppress the matter, but now, the imperial court is in a rage, and it might not be easy for me to suppress. He will have to rely on himself.” Wandering Know-it-all butt in with a regretful tone at the opportune moment.
“Since Happy can throw the Class One Hall members in Beijing off their feet while he is under severe pressure, he might actually be able to change the situation outside Beijing.”
The people’s eyes lit up.
Wandering Know-it-all was the first to speak up and deny this plan. “No. Happy is currently being hunted. If something happens to him, all his equipment will drop. The danger for him to fight against Evil Emperor and Class One Hall alone is too great.”
“Class One Hall has quite a number of top-class elites as well. If he does that, it will be rather dangerous.” One Emperor thought for a moment before he nodded and agreed with Wandering Know-it-all.
Phantasmal Shadow seemed to have expected that both would say that, and she said, “Listen to me first. If Happy can remain calm and relaxed while he is inside Beijing, then there are very few people who can stop him while he is out in the open. As for Class One Hall, there are only a few who can threaten him if they work with Evil Emperor. That’s why, if you can locate Luo Jing, Shi Huasheng, and Flame Wolf’s detailed locations and information, Happy can still do well while he is outside Beijing.”
When he heard this, Wandering Know-it-all instantly started thinking, and he seemed to be thinking that what Phantasmal Shadow said was logical.
Phantasmal Shadow continued speaking, “With how cautious Dream Clouds is, as long as we don’t reveal our determination in breaking out of the encirclement, once Happy creates a rather huge threat outside the city, she will definitely remobilize her forces, and at that time, we strike!”
“But the question is, even if we manage to break out of the encirclement, where do we go?” Wu Kuo asked at this moment.
The others were stunned, and it was only then that they thought of this problem.
Right now, Wild Wolves was working together with Class One Hall, and they had practically controlled the entire Chinese server. If they left Beijing, where could they go, and which place would be safe?
Phantasmal Shadow said confidently, “I’ve already thought of the place. After we leave Beijing, we will travel by the river, and with the fastest speed possible, we head south to Dali. Then, we station ourselves at the coastal area! We might not need to build our headquarters in the cities over there as well.”
“The coastal area?” Wu Kuo’s face turned pale. “Are we going to cling on to our last breaths by stopping and moving all the time?”
He already realized just what method his younger sister wanted to use.
“The Chinese server has already turned into this state. Do we have a better choice?” Phantasmal Shadow sighed. “If we build our headquarters in a city, our situation will become even more complicated. But if we build it at a remote place that is difficult to attack but easy to defend outside, we can at least ensure that Wind Assault Tower can continue existing, and we can still have hope.
“Even though we might have a hard time enduring after this, and things will be so difficult for us to the point that we only have a few members and only one or two branches left, we will still be around, and the Chinese server will still have hope.”
Wu Kuo and the rest fell silent.
A few seconds later, the group raised their heads, looked at each other, and spoke with the same thoughts.
“Tower master, don’t worry, no matter how Wind Assault Tower becomes in the future, we will always walk with you!!”
“That’s right!”
“Even if I have to give up my flesh for it, I will definitely chase away Wild Wolves and drag Class One Hall down once more!”
The group’s gazes were firm, and they felt their hearts burn fiercely.
Phantasmal Shadow knew that they had chosen to walk down a difficult path on this day. Her eyes shone with tears, but she did not let them fall.
“One of these days, we will seize back all that belongs to us!”
Wandering Know-it-all and One Emperor sighed with lamentful expressions by the side.
“If you’ve already come to this decision, I will support you, but we might be separated for a long time for now.”
“We will come back!”
“That’s right! Sooner or later, we will fight our way back and come and drink at your mansion!” Wu Kuo and the rest were filled with great spirit.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you.” Wandering Know-it-all sighed, and he cast at the dejected looking Wind Chimes by his side with a complicated gaze.
Even though Nine Yin Blocked Pulses had a potential and strength that no one else could compare to, this body constitution was as frail as glass. Once the people from Wind Assault Tower were gone, no one would be left in Beijing to take care of her. Right now, perhaps Wind Chimes could only use a human skin mask to hide her face and get through her days in the game.
“You might have made this decision, but you still have to send a letter to ask Happy what he thinks about it.” One Emperor reminded them.
“I’ll talk to him.”
Phantasmal Shadow nodded at Wandering Know-it-all with a grateful look.
Among the three of them, Wandering Know-it-all had the deepest relationship with him, and he was the one among them who could communicate with him the best. After all, Happy was the one who had to face the greatest risk this time, and if anything happened to him, he would have to sit in jail for one month!
