Chapter 1349: Lowly NPC
While Lava Teeth and the rest were struggling in the sea, Quan Zhen Sect had sailed out of Immortal Island’s territory.
The weather across the sea was great as usual and Quan Zhen Sect’s ship glided along the winds on the endless ocean.
Quan Zhen Sect sunbathed on the deck while admiring the ocean, putting them in a relaxed mood. Vainglory was full of smiles as though he was still immersed in the delight from crushing his enemy’s boats.
On the other hand, Wang Yu squat beside Karl with a frown and had a dagger in his hand. He poked Karl who was lying on the deck and asked Fearless, “Is this thing dead?”
“I’m not sure!”
Fearless took out his staff and poked him twice. Seeing that Karl did not move, Fearless rubbed his chin then said, “It’s all your fault. Why did you throw him down from such a great height? Anyone would be dead!”
“Chey!” Wang Yu rebutted him, “I flew from the Yamatai Valley to the sea, it is already good enough I can carry someone with me! How can you be bothered with how he landed. Anyway, what should we do if he is dead?”
“He can’t be dead,” Fearless said for sure, “Such wild BOSS would not leave its corpse behind. He probably got a concussion from the fall.”
“A concussion?” Hearing what Fearless said, Wang Yu casually waved to Ming Du who was showing off to Yang Nuo not too far away, “Old Li, come over for a bit.”
“What’s up?” Ming Du turned and asked with annoyance. Obviously, it was an irritating thing to be disturbed when flirting.
Wang Yu pointed at Karl who was on the ground and said, “Splash some water on his face! Cold water!”
Wang Yu did not know if this would work but in TV shows, it did.
“I…”
Ming Du was unhappy with how Wang Yu used him as a tool in front of girls but there was nothing he could do. Could he retaliate? Hence, he casually threw a water ball at Karl’s face.
“Whoosh!”
The ice ball landed on Karl’s face but he still did not move.
“Sigh, he must be really dead!”
Wang Yu sighed at this sight and said, “Forget it, throw him into the sea!”
After speaking, Wang Yu lifted Karl with one arm and was about to throw him into the sea.
He was, after all, a City Lord and was a respected man. He should not die without a burial ground, so at least sea burial was fitting for Karl.
Just then, Fearless suddenly stopped Wang Yu and said, “Don’t throw…”
“Why?” Wang Yu questioned, “He’s dead, why should we not?”
“Don’t be anxious!” Fearless smiled widely, “Take off his clothes first!”
“F*ck!” Wang Yu said in shock, “Are you going to rape a corpse?”
He really could not tell that although Fearless looked so cultured and was well-educated, he had such a unique preference.
However, based on his past evildoings, this should not be as shocking.
“I have no interest in males!” Fearless dismissed him, “This thing is, after all, a BOSS; his clothes should be quite good. Small amounts of money were still money.”
“True!” Wang Yu gave it some thought and said, “You make sense!”
After that, Wang Yu threw Karl onto the ground and was about to strip him but just then, the seemingly dead Karl suddenly opened his eyes wide and did a backflip to stand up.
“F*ck! What the hell!!!”
Karl’s sudden movement scared Wang Yu as he thought it was a zombie so he slapped it by instinct.
Seeing how Wang Yu attacked him, Karl retreated as he panickingly yelled, “Don’t, don’t, don’t… I’m not kidding anymore… I am alive.”
“Alive!”
Hearing Karl’s yells, Wang Yu heart resumed beating and he quickly stopped his palm right in front of Karl…
The forceful wind from the palm blew onto Karl’s face, scaring him pale. This lad did not know that he had just escaped hell.
It would be devastating to die from pretending to be dead.
“Tsk!”
Standing aside, Fearless was not surprised to see this. Instead, he snarled, “I knew you were lying!”
Wang Yu was angry with what Karl did so without any expression, he asked, “So what if you are alive? Why lie?”
“Hehe!” Karl chuckled then said despicably, “I was just kidding, don’t be so serious. I did not say I was dead, you guys assumed so.”
“No one’s kidding with you!” Fearless sent his staff beating into Karl’s waist upon hearing his explanation.
For some unknown reason, Fearless did not like the sight of this NPC. However, Wang Yu saw a reflection of Fearless in this NPC.
Hmm… It seemed like what people said about hating yourself the most was quite credible.
“Haha!”
Karl laughed and said, “I didn’t think you guys were so capable that you managed to save me. Let’s go back to Harbor City. After we return, I will reward you guys beautifully!”
“Hehe!” Hearing what Karl said, Wang Yu smiled lightly then asked, “I saved you not to hear you spout rubbish. Please tell us where Harbor City’s City Lord seal is.”
Damn it, these tricks in this game were everywhere. Karl’s words were obviously playing with their minds.
You see, Wang Yu was the system-recognised City Lord of Harbor City and was only short of a seal compared to a legitimate City Lord while the Harbor City seal which Karl had was short of an owner.
If Wang Yu went along with what Karl said, he would have fallen into Karl’s trap. Think about it, as the City Lord of Harbor City, if Wang Yu acknowledged him as the City Lord, wasn’t he giving Harbor City away?
Karl might instantly become Harbor City’s City Lord.
As the saying goes to learn from lessons, Wang Yu had suffered losses in the hands of NPCs so many times and was now experienced, so he was wary. When dealing with normal NPCs, Wang Yu would be extra careful, much less when dealing with Karl, such a liar.
Indeed, seeing that Wang Yu did not fall into his trap and Karl looked disappointed. In a blink of an eye, he replied, “The seal… I hid it. I’ll tell you where it is when we return to the Harbor City.”
“Let’s not wait till then!” Fearless took over the conversation and said, “I know it is on you. Hand it over.”
Hearing what Fearless said, Karl was stunned. His face turned pale and looked at Fearless, and said, “Why… Why do you say so?”
“Hehe!” Fearless stared at Karl and gave a cold laugh then enunciated, “Because you are an untrustworthy person!”
Fearless had a good judgement of people so he could see through Karl at once.
To Fearless, a stray dog like Karl would not trust others easily. He would not feel at ease without carrying the City Lord seal on him as it was such a precious item.
The most dangerous place is the safest place. Anyway, Karl’s only meaning in life is the possession of the City Lord seal. With such an important thing as his bargaining chip, to get it, people would not kill him.
