Chapter 1557: Enticing Enemy To Penetrate?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wang Yu’s current predicament was no longer as simple as just cross factions. It was far beyond the three examples stated earlier as this was on a national level.
The game was the simplest and most cruel place to plunder resources. There was a possibility to find a BOSS at every inch of land here. People fight for every inch of land and crossing servers would usually be regarded as invasion.
This was expressly stipulated by the system. However, one would receive all kinds of experience and fame for killing players from other countries. In fact, one would even receive special deeds to exchange with their mentors for equipment such as God-grade weapons.
This made the hostility between countries even more severe than ever.
Fighting a war required players to spend money and when players spent money, the happiest would be the gaming company who were essentially the providers of weapons and ammunition.
Therefore, a country war was the most exhaustive in terms of consumption of weapons and supplies. It was every gaming company’s final resort to earn from the players. In the past, there was one gaming merchant who made a fortune based solely on war between countries.
Even though that merchant created bad blood between countries, his methods to earn a fortune were not forgotten…
Ultimately, the motive of a game like <<REBIRTH>> was still to earn money. Naturally, they had done their preparations for inter-countries war.
Ordinary players understood this well so unless they were confident in themselves or their status, they wouldn’t dare to show off flashy equipment while walking around casually.
Wang Yu was indeed in his own world. Leaving the country’s server, he casually went around to ask for directions as he completely disregarded the rules.
As Wang Yu continued to ask others for directions, more and more passersby started staring at him. The Warrior couldn’t help but look at the Assassin after watching Wang Yu’s disappearing figure, “This person doesn’t seem like he is a player from Starry Sky City.”
“What do you mean not a player from this city?” The Assassin refuted, “He doesn’t even look like he belongs in this country!”
“Are you saying he is from the Japanese or Chinese server?” The Warrior scratched his chin.
“Who cares!”
The Assassin took out his dagger, “Regardless of which server he came from, we have to slaughter him to contribute to our nation.”
“You better calm down!” The Warrior held onto the Assassin and said, “The fact that he dared to cross servers into our Starry Sky City proves that he must not be weak at all. We might not be a match for him at all.”
“Not a match? Haha!” The Assassin sneered coldly, “Did you see his job?”
“Job?” The Warrior was taken aback, “I didn’t pay attention to that.”
“He is merely a Pugilist! How strong can he be?!” The Assassin replied in a disdainful manner, “If you’re not willing to come along, I’ll be going on my own.”
A Pugilist was well-known to be one of the weakest jobs in the game. On the other hand, Assassin had been deemed as the number one job in PK.
Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely easy for an Assassin to deal with a Pugilist. Moreover, this Assassin brazenly showed off peak-grade equipment on the streets meant that he wasn’t weak as well.
“Pugilist?” The Warrior also started chuckling, “To think that such a useless job dares to walk out on the street in such a flashy manner? He is clearly asking to be killed.”
However, this was definitely not his intention…
After saying that, the Assassin went into [Stealth] and caught up with Wang Yu. The Warrior also kept his weapons as he hurriedly followed behind.
…
What the Assassin could think of, the other players were naturally able to think of too. Wang Yu’s brazen actions instantly attracted a bunch of greedy players.
However, as those fellas chasing after Wang Yu saw the Warrior with the hatchet, they were all so shocked that they slowed down and eventually turned away.
It was clear that these players were so terrified of this Warrior that they were willing to give up on this opportunity to contribute to the nation.
Wang Yu was not blind and in contrast, he was extremely sensitive. Even without turning behind to see the players behind him, he could sense them. While he did not know what they wanted from him, he could sense that they did not come with good intentions.
Of course, Wang Yu had always been the bravest because of his own abilities. Wang Yu was already used to being chased around so these malicious players following him were not of any worry to Wang Yu.
After some time, Wang Yu suddenly felt that the number of players following him became lesser. Eventually, only two players were left behind him.
Having an increasing number of people pursuing him was normal. It was certainly not normal to see a decreasing number.
Just as Wang Yu was getting confused, a small alley appeared not too far away from him.
“Tsk! Let’s see what they’re up to!”
Wang Yu grunted as he turned into the small alley.
“Eh?”
Seeing Wang Yu turned into the small alley, the Warrior and Assassin were equally astonished.
“Just how daring was this lad? He dared to ask for directions and then turned into a remote alley? Is he really asking to be killed?” the Assassin asked in a perplexed tone.
“Let’s just be careful! There might be a trap!” the Warrior said cautiously, “This fella is so suspicious I suspect he is trying to lure us into the alley. There has to be an ambush in the alley.”
One had to admit that even though this Warrior was so muscular and massive, he was a meticulous man.
It was true that many incidents like this happened in the game. An innocent-looking, rich kid luring players into a blind alley before a bunch of players jump out to loot those following him. This was extremely common even in the traditional mouse and keyboard times. As a veteran in the game, he was evidently familiar with this.
“So are we still following him?” the Assassin suddenly felt fearful as he asked.
Before the Warrior could answer, Wang Yu suddenly extended his head and shouted towards the Assassin, “Hey! The two of you have followed me all the way here so why are you getting worried now?”
“???”
The Warrior jumped when he heard Wang Yu’s voice. He hurriedly took a step back and wielded his hatchet in front of his chest.
The Assassin started sweating profusely as he looked at himself before confirming that he was still in [Stealth] mode, “You… You can see me?”
Wang Yu did not understand him but from his shocked tone, Wang Yu could tell what he meant as he laughed, “I’ve already brought you guys here yet you guys seem too worried to do anything to me! How uninteresting! Bye!”
Wang Yu looked disdainfully at the two of them before leaving the alley again.
“F*ck! How dare you look down on us!”
It wasn’t hard to tell from their equipment that these two players were top experts. After seeing Wang Yu’s expression, their expressions changed as they looked incredibly infuriated.
The Warrior was a composed person so he did do anything dramatic. However, the Assassin was exceedingly rash and without any further hesitation, he wielded his dagger and charged towards Wang Yu’s back. He extended his arm towards the back of Wang Yu swiftly.
