292 Crisis
“I received a message from a small elf team last night.”
“Their information says that the Vast Flame Kingdom’s people who occupied the resource mine have changed their target.”
Zelda’s expression became more serious.
When Su Ming heard this, he seemed to have realized something. His expression did not change and he continued looking at Zelda.
Zelda did not wait for Su Ming’s question. She just said, “They seem to have given up on the mining of the resource mine.”
“We’ll start from the borders of the Vast Flame Kingdom and the areas around the resource mines.”
“I think…I think it’s very likely that they’re looking for our tracks.”
When Su Ming heard Zelda’s words, he did not look too surprised. Instead, he nodded in agreement.
“According to what you’re saying now, they should have temporarily given up on the mining plan.”
“The person in charge of this project is probably afraid that what happened last time will be exposed, so he decided to find us first.”
Zelda cast a glance at Su Ming, then nodded slightly.
“In fact, according to your previous observation, the so-called Vast Flame Kingdom is not as united as it seems.”
“Their mining operation this time was a decision made by Duke Lincoln behind the king’s back.”
“In fact, according to my guess, this Duke Lincoln might have thoughts of rebellion against the Vast Flame Kingdom.”
When Su Ming heard that, he nodded in agreement.
The Vast Flame Kingdom with a population of over a million was a colossus in the early stages of the game.
Even if there was only one Duke, his current power and the number of subordinates completely overwhelmed the Elf Valley.
Under such circumstances, the other party would give up on mining at the last minute.
The main reason might really be as Zelda had said.
This Duke Lincoln had some thoughts of becoming the Emperor.
In the end, he was forced to slow down and start looking for her first.
Only then could he be at ease and continue to do what he wanted to do.
And before this could be done, the mining of resources would probably stagnate.
This was not a good thing for the Elf Valley.
Because once the Elf Valley was discovered by the other party…
It would definitely be a huge blow to the current development of the Elf Valley, even if it was not a disaster.
These words might sound a little exaggerated, but they were definitely not far from the truth.
“Don’t be in a hurry. Let the Elf team continue to observe the situation.”
“If they’re really determined to find us, then I’ll think about how to show up. At least, I’ll make them give up on finding us.”
When she heard Su Ming’s words, Zelda first cast him a glance, then nodded her head repeatedly.
Once he left Zelda’s place, Su Ming returned to his usual training spot.
When he had nothing to do in the Elf Valley and he did not have any tasks on him, Su Ming would come here to level up.
The afternoon passed by quietly in this process.
While Su Ming was focused on leveling up, another matter was brewing in the outside world.
On the forum of the ‘Origin of Humans: Horde’, a video of a duel between players suddenly became popular.
The content of the video was very simple. A well-dressed player easily defeated his opponent with only two slashes.
The video was not supposed to have many highlights or interesting points, but it went viral on the internet at an unbelievable speed.
There was no other reason other than the fact that the player with gorgeous equipment was the number one player on the player leaderboard.
Night Blade.
The opponent he had easily defeated was the Lin clan’s Guild Master, who had just risen to fame not too long ago.
The powerful identities of these two people had destined this battle to be extraordinary from the beginning.
Under such a background, the dramatic instant kill scene appeared even more exaggerated and terrifying.
Countless people’s comments were refreshed under this post.
“Isn’t this a little too much? President Lin was one of the top players, right? They were so easily dealt with by Night Blade?”
“That’s right. I feel like Night Blade is chopping him up like vegetables. He doesn’t feel any pressure at all.”
“That’s right. Is there really such a huge difference between us ordinary players and these top closed beta players?”
There were also people who saw the key point.
“You can’t say that. It’s mainly President Lin’s own reaction that has caused a big fuss. If he had been slightly better, he wouldn’t have been killed in one hit.”
“That’s true. After all, Night Blade is the first place on the player leaderboard. It’s not surprising for them to have such a powerful attribute panel, right?”
In the beginning, everyone’s discussion was still revolving around the duel itself.
However, as time passed, everyone began to discover something amiss.
“That’s not right. Isn’t the background a little strange?”
“Yeah, why do I feel like there are a few corpses in the background? What’s the situation?”
“That’s right. Also, why would Night Blade go to President Lin for no reason?”
As everyone’s doubts gradually fermented, finally, an informed person told them the general course of the incident.
“Of course, this so-called insider, like the person who posted the video, was also arranged by Ye Chuan.”
Right and wrong had been clear from the beginning of this incident.
After being polished by this so-called insider, Su Ming became the treasure trove’s guild master who sought justice for his bullied subordinates and was not afraid of power.
As for Lin Tian…
Most of the players had their own opinions about the Lin Guild’s style and Lin Tian’s personality.
Therefore, when the news was released, most people chose to believe it.
There had been some denouncement on the forums about Su Ming being too powerful and that they hoped the officials would weaken his power, but those gradually disappeared.
Su Ming had become the president of the treasure house, and there were even many people who cried and begged to join his guild.
“Who knows what the name of Night Blade’s Guild is? I want to join his Guild now. This kind of President really…I’ll cry to death.”
“Who doesn’t want to join such a union? If an ordinary member is bullied, the president will bring all his subordinates to get back at them.”
“Tsk tsk, after all this talk, does anyone know the name of Night Blade’s guild?”
