Chapter 749: Mediator

“Let’s go!” Seeing how Quan Zhen Sect ignored him and turned to Choba, Wang Yu told Peak of Perfection.
Initially, Wang Yu was worried that these people would bully Choba but now, Wang Yu’s worries were futile. These guys were only short of worshipping Choba as a god, and definitely not bullying him.
After informing Quan Zhen Sect, Wang Yu and Peak of Perfection left the inn.
As Cloud Mountain City was part of the Dark Faction, Twilight City did not have an airship to go there directly so they had to fly to Sin City in front of the exile area then walk over.
After more than an hour, the airship finally arrived at the Sin City.
As there was no government nor troops, you could do anything here. Hence, it was filled with players with red marks. Moreover, this was the frontline of battles, players did not have a main city to pay tribute to, and relied on completing military assignments for the military for their livelihood. Hence, small teams were everywhere and mercenaries were countless. Fights and theft were also common.
Anyone they did not like, they could just attack. Anything they liked, they could just steal.
Good guys could not survive there while bad guys turned worse.
As time passed, it was infamous for such and became the most chaotic main city in >, and also became a unique feature of the game.
In history, this was the first game that could change a player so much. Due to this, the game company considered starting a huge faction war documentary to erase this main city… However, under the objection of the players, it never happened.
After they left the airship and entered the city, the two of them were targeted by people.
This was normal as Peak of Perfection was dressed in the best equipment and so was Wang Yu. In >, expensive goods looked very different from the cheap ones. Even if they did not look out for them intentionally, these experienced criminals in Sin City could tell the difference in one look.
Peak of Perfection kept a low profile but he was even more afraid of dying so he was dressed in the sharpest equipment, fearing he would be stabbed to death. Wang Yu was even more exaggerated. His excitement over his new weapon had not died down so he did not want to take it off. Having two hands wrapped in shining purple was definitely very eye-catching.
Since the two of them were loitering in Sin City in such high profile, it would be abnormal if no one targeted them.
After barely a few steps, Wang Yu told Peak of Perfection, “Go in [Stealth], someone is following us.”
“What? We are targeted? How many of them?”
“Three or four, all Assassins…” Wang Yu said, “They should be the local rogues looking to rob us.”
Wang Yu had come to Sin City before so he knew that only bastards like Ming Du could survive here.
No matter who was following them, Peak of Perfection did not want to offend them so after hearing what Wang Yu said, he did not hesitate to go into [Stealth].
Based on the principle of avoiding clashes, Wang Yu also turned off the light effect of his weapon.
Quickly, they left the city and passed the battlefield, walking towards Cloud Mountain City. Along the way, the number of people did not decrease but instead, increased.
“Hmm? This is not right. Why are there more and more people? There are about twenty of them now.” Just then, Wang Yu said with a frown.
This was Sin City. If they wanted to rob them, they should have acted already. Why were there more people? Did they want to split the money amongst more people?
“Could it be the Heavenly Fiend Alliance?” Peak of Perfection turned pale as he asked carefully.
Heavenly Fiend Alliance was the guild Peak of Perfection offended. It was considered a veteran guild in the online game community. Supposedly, it was older than Termination Manor, and have very long roots.
Sin City was on the only route to Cloud Mountain City so it was logical to deploy people to stop them here.
“That guild that is after your life, right?” Wang Yu asked.
“Yes!” Peak of Perfection said, “They still have not attacked. Maybe they are afraid that you are the local head gangster… After we pass this road, it will be Cloud Mountain City. Be careful.”
Common sense would tell you not to offend the local head gangster as Sin City was a mess and everyone here were not to be trifled with. Just by their PK skills alone would be on another level. If they really offended these gangsters, even a big guild like Heavenly Fiend Alliance would be in trouble.
Heavenly Fiend Alliance only wanted to stop Peak of Perfection so they would not needlessly seek trouble.
“It’s ok. Even if we go somewhere rural, these few of them is not my match.” Wang Yu rubbed his fists and confidently said.
Hearing what Wang Yu said, Peak of Perfection broke out in sweat… Like Fearless, when in the face of Wang Yu, Peak of Perfection had moments of helplessness.
Just as Peak of Perfection expected, when the two of them crossed the battlefield and left Sin City’s territory, those players who were following them displayed aggression. A dozen of melee players dashed to surround Wang Yu and Peak of Perfection tightly.
Wang Yu was forced to stop.
“Brother, don’t worry. We are not looking for you, we are looking for Peak of Perfection. You should know where he is.”
Just then, someone who looked like a Knight stood forward and spoke to Wang Yu.
Peak of Perfection was standing beside Wang Yu but he was in [Stealth] so other people could not see him.
“Oh, who are you?” Wang Yu looked at the Knight and asked.
“I am Tuo Bayuan, you can call me Young Master Yuan!” the Knight said with great self-love.
Wang Yu found it a joke, “Tuoba (Mop in Chinese)? Young Master Yuan (Little vengeance in Chinese)? Why did you come up with just a funny name?”
“…” Tuo Bayuan’s face changed and said, “No one is kidding with you. We are neighbours so I don’t want to start any animosity with Sin City. Hurry, tell me where Peak of Perfection is.”
“Here!” Wang Yu pulled Peak of Perfection out.
Peak of Perfection was pulled out by Wang Yu and was in disbelief. He asked Wang Yu in shock, “F*ck, what are you doing?”
Wang Yu said, “He looks quite sincere so I think we should talk about it so they will give up on their own accord. Otherwise, even when we return to the city, we might not be able to submit the quest.”
Wang Yu’s worry was not futile. Heavenly Fiend Alliance was a big guild and had at least thousands of players. Now that they knew that Peak of Perfection was back, they could surround the quest NPC. No matter how capable Wang Yu was, he would not be able to leave in one piece with thousands of people surrounding him. Furthermore, he had a burden with him. Hence, it was best to sit down and talk about it. Wang Yu was willing to be a mediator.
“What do you think?” Wang Yu turned and asked Tuo Bayuan.
“What’s there to f*cking talk about…” Tuo Bayuan was already fuming mad when he saw Peak of Perfection and now, Wang Yu was being pretentious. In anger, he started cursing.
Just then, Wang Yu waved his right hand and smashed his fist at the face of the Guardian who was charging towards Peak of Perfection. The Guardian instantly turned into a ray of white light and Tuo Bayuan stopped his spouting of vulgarities.
“Of course there is.” Tuo Bayuan quickly changed his tone.
“Great, so can we talk about it amicably?” Wang Yu asked calmly.
